Chapter 224 Lu Yuan Establishes a New Civilization

The two began to play around as usual.

"Since the city belongs to Princess Green...when you humans go home, will you still give me the Sky City?"

Lu Yuan was immediately happy and said slowly: "I will definitely return it to you. Princess, humans also have their own cities. We will definitely not stay here."

She tilted her head, trying to arouse Lu Yuan's sympathy: "If you leave, won't I become a princess without a husband?"

"You are wrong. There are still 1,500 Zerg warriors accompanying you, Your Highness."

Her eyes flickered. "How are you going to settle the expenses of living here?"

"We will build it here for free, which will offset the travel expenses and living expenses... I will give you whatever you need."

"What about the Green Civilization?!"

Lu Yuan said calmly with a stern face: "Your Highness... You can only give birth to a child yourself. The world is so big, there should be a way to reproduce by parthenogenesis."

"If you ask me, I can help you find it."

Hai Luo's tone became more and more urgent, and she herself couldn't figure out what her mentality was - you keep calling me princess, which is very annoying, and I really want to fight.

And Lu Yuan's tone was still so calm...

The old cat watched the two people arguing.

Once again, it’s great to be young.

"Holy King, jerk me off, please."

It was finally said to his face.

This sentence was so shocking that it shook the heavens and the earth! After a long while, Lu Yuan also repeated, "Holy King, jerk me off, please."

The old cat said righteously: "Why is it that the same sentence is normal when I say it, but very erotic when you say it?"

Lu Yuan was a little embarrassed.

The old cat is happy!

You like to torture cats, right?

…

According to the law of smile transfer, when the old cat was happy, Lu Yuan and Hai Luo could no longer continue the original topic.

Lu Yuan was so thick-skinned that he didn't care about it in just two seconds. He shouted directly: "Sister, when are you going to beat your brother like the other sister? I haven't been beaten for a long time, and my skin is a little itchy."

The conch chuckled: "What a pervert~!"

The old cat suddenly meowed and changed the subject: "You two, the most important thing is water..."

"If it doesn't rain, the water in the reservoir will be running out."

"There is a person in the village who possesses a divine skill called celestial prediction. This guy said that it may not rain in the next year. It is hard to say about the future either. I am afraid there will be no rain."

The insect swarm took away a large amount of water resources before leaving.

In addition, there has been no rain for six years, and the water in the reservoir is really covered with moss at the bottom.

Without water, everyone will die of thirst.

"How long can you hold on?" Lu Yuan swallowed and felt a little nervous.

The old cat said: "Our current productivity is insufficient. If we put up a layer of plastic to cover the reservoir, it can reduce a lot of natural evaporation."

"Under the current situation, the water will be almost completely consumed in three or four years."

"Pray for rain in the future..."

Lu Yuan nodded and sighed.

It’s not that urgent, but it must be taken seriously.

If this result really happened, he would have to use the space-travel instrument to return to the Rize civilization and use the storage space to carry water resources.

"Three years later, I may have reached level five, with further enhanced abilities."

"But several hundred cubic meters of water still won't last long."

This cost is too high and unsustainable.

Therefore, the best way is to quickly raise the sky city and move to a place surrounded by mountains and water.

There is really no way out of staying in this damn desert.

"Oh, by the way, building the city in the sky also means a milestone in civilization. How many days have we reached now? I guess... no civilization can be faster than us, right?"

"It's hard to say. You have to be able to upgrade first." Old Cat routinely thought of the worst-case scenario first. "How can I upgrade given the current situation?"

“It’s not impossible.”

During these few months, Lu Yuan investigated every corner of the Sky City.

To be honest, many places have collapsed, and some rocks may weigh tens of thousands of tons.

With current productivity, it is impossible to repair the damaged areas.

Some of the carved energy circuits were also completely damaged. Many of the energy circuits were embedded in the stone like cables and could only be repaired by re-chiseling them.

This amount of work is obviously not something that Lu Yuan can accomplish alone.

"Fortunately, we found the original design drawings of the Sky City in the library." Lu Yuan took out a piece of white paper from his arms.

He spent a lot of time and effort copying it.

"You see, in order to increase the ability to resist war... the Sky City is built with the poppy tree as the core. There are three rings: inner, middle, and outer. The total diameter is about 44 kilometers, and the area is 1,500 kilometers. The upper and lower floors cover more than 3,000 square kilometers."

"The inner ring has a diameter of 4 kilometers, has the strongest defense performance, and has more core functions."

"If the middle and outer rings are damaged, we only need to raise the inner ring, and the rest can be abandoned here. We simply don't need them."

With a diameter of 4 kilometers, the area is approximately 12 square kilometers.

The upper and lower floors cover an area of ​​24 square kilometers, which is more than enough to support a population of 10,000.

But raising the city in the sky requires a huge amount of energy. Lu Yuan has no idea how to obtain the energy. He can't create nuclear fusion by hand.

"This...may have to wait until the poppy tree recovers a bit. It can provide a huge amount of energy through photosynthesis. The sky city in the past relied on solar energy and part of the energy from the power station."

“Although only a stump is left now, if the city is only one thousandth of its original size, it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

Lu Yuan understood that the key next was actually to save the poppy tree.

Whether it is the "Green Paradise" or the rising city in the sky, they are inseparable from the poppy tree and this lady.

He quickly clasped his hands together and began to pray silently.

"What are you doing?" the old cat couldn't help but ask.

"I just teased Sister Conch. She is so important, and I dared to bully her. I am reflecting on this and will take care of myself."

"Will you dare to do it again next time? Please reflect on your mistakes." Conch said, biting her lip.

She is good-looking and not aggressive, and she bites her lips probably to make herself look fiercer.

However, making this move towards a man, even if it was not her true intention, seemed to have the intention of seducing him.

"Of course I dare, I'll apologize then!"

…

The old cat is gone.

It feels that it no longer fits here.

Being with these two guys always makes me feel like I'm dead.

Let’s go and discipline the country folk.

Only by disciplining those country folks who don’t abuse cats can you experience that you are still alive.

…

Soon, a month of peace passed again.

Life was getting back on track day by day, and with the bumper harvest of the first batch of cacti, the food crisis finally came to an end.

10% of the grain is owned by individuals, and the rest is collectively owned.

This ratio is actually quite high, but now we are in an era of eating from the same pot, so being able to give you 10% is already very good.

But even so, all the farmers are full of enthusiasm.

They went out early and came back late, constantly reclaiming farmland, like a perpetual motion machine, fighting day and night - in the end, Lu Yuan forced a halt to the excessive reclamation, because reclaiming too much land would increase the demand for water, which was a waste.

He and Hai Luo have been busy with their "greenhouse farm" for the past month. The water resources they require are not actually that much, but the yield is much higher than that of ordinary farmland.

The gap between different times is so huge that it is both sad and helpless.

This group of people is the most hardworking and persevering, even in the entire human civilization.

But for a civilization that wants to rise, hard work and perseverance are just the most basic qualities.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

There are many races that are willing to endure hardship.

But few can rise.

The most important thing is a flexible mind and the ability to seize opportunities.

This group of 10,000 new members is actually quite lacking in this aspect.

Except for a few people, most people would rather work hard for 10 hours under the sun than read a book for 1 hour and learn something new.

When asked to study, they will make excuses that they cannot learn it, and what goes in one ear and out the other - the most difficult thing in the world is to force my thinking into your brain.

Lu Yuan and Lao Mao felt this deeply.

We must think of a way to reverse this situation.

…

In addition, the villagers also erected a small monument to the east.

Commemorate the stories that happened.

Occasionally, a few surviving elderly people would come to the monument to pay tribute and remember the past.

They reminisced about their past lives and missed the old days.

It seems like in the blink of an eye, we have arrived in a new era.

The world always belongs to the young.

Even though the elderly are not very adaptable, the young people always like this life full of hope and novelty and gradually forget the past.

When we arrived at the monument, the number of people paying tribute gradually decreased.

The former Sandi clan was blown away like sand in the wind.

…

The young intellectual, Shamo, is very satisfied with his current life.

There is not so much intrigue over water resources, and not too much pressure.

All I have to do every day is study and work.

As a smart "super thinker", his IQ may be as high as 160. Since he came into contact with those complex and profound knowledge, he was like a dry sponge thrown into a lake, madly absorbing water.

Sha Mo followed the old cat and accepted modern thinking at the fastest speed.

He is also the leader of a large group, which has 500 villagers - well, the members of these large groups are the ones that worry him the most.

"Shamo, what new policies does Boss Cat have?"

"How's the tree? Is it alive? Are the bugs hatching?"

"What delicious food is there today?" The villagers love these gossips the most.

"You will know in a moment. An important policy will be announced tonight!" He pushed a cart loaded with boiled eggs.

Hens give birth to chicks, and when the chicks grow up, they give birth to new chicks.

Shamo is flexible in thinking. With a group of intellectuals, he raises chickens scientifically, and now has 3,000 chickens.

Eggs are also a high-quality food that supplements protein.

After finishing the distribution, he sat down on a chair and began to impart the latest required knowledge to everyone.

"Today we are learning Chinese Pinyin. I hope everyone can memorize it as soon as possible, or at least learn to say their own names."

Suddenly, the square was filled with wailing.

Everyone was whispering to each other, but no one listened to him. Everyone was just bragging and chatting.

Sha Mo was helpless and looked at the other deputy team leaders.

Several people shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

"Team Leader, it's not that we're lazy, we just really have no other choice. We can't just beat them up."

After a day of hard work, according to regulations, everyone needs to complete a study class of about an hour.

The course is not difficult and focuses on popularizing common knowledge such as health, mathematics, and Chinese.

But for those who don't want to use their brains, it's really a bit too much.

"You don't need these for farming!"

"What's the point of memorizing phonetic symbols?"

“Why not raise a few more chickens!”

Sha Mo held the textbook in his hand and sneered, "Do you want to live a better life, or just muddle along like you are now?"

"I tell you, you will never be able to grow anything if you just rely on farming! Raising chickens will also cause chicken plague, and they will die one after another! How will you save your chickens when the time comes? Do you know what medicine to use?"

"From now on, it is the age of knowledge!"

"Some people will soon be eliminated and marginalized."

"Of course, I am just reminding you as a fellow villager. Don't think that the collective will always support you... The collective will reform soon!"

Yes, without any external pressure, these people actually have little motivation to study.

Except for some naturally smart people who show a thirst for knowledge, others may remain like this for their entire lives. It is really difficult to change the concepts formed in childhood.

This terrible fact gave Lu Yuan a headache. What he wanted were workers who could help him with his work and scholars who could study carvings, not a group of farmers.

Therefore, the atmosphere tonight is somewhat unusual.

Many team leaders heard the gossip and remained silent.

At seven o'clock in the evening, they brought all the villagers to the square under the poppy tree.

More than 10,000 people is actually not that many, just the size of a football field.

At 7:30 in the evening, Lu Yuan, who had been preparing for a long time, stood on the top of the Tree of Life and delivered an important speech to the masses.

In fact, this was the first time he gave a serious speech in public in the past six months.

"My dear friends, we have been in the Sky City for six months."

"In these six months, we worked hard and opened up 8,000 acres of farmland, alleviated the food crisis, and created a lot of wealth."

"It also means that we have managed to gain a foothold in this world."

"We need to record a rich history here."

"I declare that Green Town is officially established at this moment! This is our new hometown!"
