"This was made by a very imaginative otaku. He always thought there would be a zombie outbreak," Xiaoqi said, pointing to a machine in the living room.
"The main unit is a solar-powered machine with a high-efficiency folding solar panel, built-in wiring, ten incandescent bulbs and a total of 300 meters of wiring, and an induction cooker, which I disassembled. There are also various types of charging cables inside for charging."
"When did you get this?" Chen Yang asked curiously.
"Three months ago, I had a feeling this day would come. I've been preparing for it all along, and now I can finally make a name for myself and show off. Its width was originally over the standard, but I sent it to the factory yesterday to modify the position of the solar panel, and now it meets the standard."
Chen Yang said speechlessly, "You've been preparing for all this time just to show off?"
“Yeah, what’s the point of living if you can’t show off?” Xiaoqi said matter-of-factly.
Linglong said with a grin, "That's my motto."
Chen Yang tested it to confirm if there was anything wrong with the machine.
"Don't worry, boss. I've tested it and even replaced the battery in this generator with the best one on the market. That nerdy guy is a bit poor and can't afford good stuff, so I got this generator for just over ten thousand yuan."
Xiaoqi said with great confidence.
Chen Yang couldn't find any problems, so he said, "Okay, it's decided on this one. I'll bring it into the Micro Realm tonight."
If this machine is brought into the Microverse, it can ensure that several houses in the center of the camp have lights available, greatly saving candles.
Moreover, it's a super-large battery that can charge all the electrical appliances in the camp, so they won't need to specifically choose a solar-powered one. They also won't have to worry about their equipment running out of power.
For example, this time it rained, and the projector and e-reader ran out of power quickly and couldn't be charged, so the rest of the time was very boring.
"Oh, right, besides the reward, I've also thought of something I could have brought in anyway," Chen Yang said. "I'll bring in half a loofah."
"Half?"
"One is too long, half is enough. Plant it with loofah seeds, and it will grow in about ten days in the accelerated time zone. Moreover, this season is perfect for planting loofahs, as the temperature and humidity are not a problem."
"I don't understand, boss, you decide," Xiao Qi said.
Chen Yang shared his thoughts with everyone, and no one had any objections.
“Loofahs grow fast, so let’s plant some in the time acceleration zone. Plants don’t grow well in the acceleration zone,” Jiang Bo said.
“Alright, then it’s decided on the loofah. The items we’ll bring out of the micro-world are the seeds and bird eggs we found, as well as the jade chess pieces made by Grandpa Yun,” Chen Yang said.
"No objection."
"agree."
After everyone agreed, Chen Yang successfully made the exchange as soon as he entered the micro-world that night, following their plan.
As soon as the power supply came in, they tested all the light tubes. Next was the laying of the pipes, which of course had to be built underground.
Because the current was not large and there was no danger, they planned to use bamboo to lay the pipes and then cover them with a layer of soil for protection, similar to building underfloor heating.
The generator also needs to be housed in a separate, protected hut. However, the generator is designed so that the solar panels can form the roof, making it completely waterproof.
This task will be left to Xiaoqi and Guo Zifeng; they are more experienced.
As for the loofah seeds, they were divided into two parts: one part was planted in the time acceleration zone, and the other part was planted in the cultivated land outside the acceleration zone.
After picking out all the seeds from the loofah, of course, it wouldn't go to waste. Li Su'er made stir-fried loofah for everyone, but each person could only eat a small bite.
"The loofahs grow very fast, and they'll grow even faster in the time acceleration zone. We'll be able to eat loofahs very soon," Chen Yang said.
This is also why he chose loofah. It harvests very quickly, and you can eat loofah in less than a month. Although it is difficult for it to grow well in the time acceleration zone, you can harvest it earlier and replant the seeds.
Chen Yang planned to buy rice seeds during the autumn harvest. However, the seeds sold in the market are sold in bags, and he couldn't find any rice that could be used as seeds after searching around.
Chen Yang had no intention of buying a single seed to plant.
Currently, what the micro-world lacks most is a stable supply of edible plants; they can only find wild vegetables and occasionally dig up bamboo shoots.
A balanced diet is very important, so they are now focusing more on finding plants.
Fortunately, wild vegetables are still easy to find this season; some ferns and the roots and stems of other plants are edible.
Now they have salt and oil, the two most basic seasonings, as well as ginger and garlic, so the taste of the food can be guaranteed.
Because they don't have soybeans, they can't brew soy sauce, so Li Su'er is researching some sauce brewing methods, hoping to make some sauces as condiments.
Although the resources in the micro-world are abundant, they have only developed a small portion of them, and there are still many resources waiting for them to develop.
Wengji recently discovered bauxite deposits, but they don't currently see the need for development. Chen Yang isn't particularly interested in mineral resource development. Given their modern industrial base, they could actually produce some industrial products if they put in the effort and invested some time.
However, industry is the most polluting industry. In modern society, they can already enjoy the fruits of industry to their heart's content, so there is no need to develop industry in the micro-world. Therefore, Chen Yang does not plan to develop industry. Iron ore is enough as a foundation, and iron can meet most of their needs.
After finishing his work, Chen Yang prepared to set off for Xijie River with Ding Qihan, Weng Ji, and Hou Yu.
On the other side of the western boundary river, Ye Wu and Jiang Bo were building a simple raft. This raft didn't need to be used for a long time; it just needed to help them cross the river.
Just as Ye Wu said, the current is fast enough to swim across, so they don't need to worry about anything. They just need to tie a few logs together; enough to carry a few people and float on the water. By the time Chen Yang and the others reach the West Boundary River tomorrow, the raft will be almost finished.
Jiang Bo had originally planned to build a boat that could cross the river, but now there was no need for that; the wood he had collected for making boats was just what he needed.
"The desert opposite is very strange. I have a bold guess. If my guess is true, then this may be the biggest discovery we have made since entering the Microverse."
Ding Qihan said.
"What guess?" Even Wengji became curious.
Although he is an authority in academia, everyone has their own area of expertise. In the field of meteorology, he is not as good as Ding Qihan. He has done research, but not in-depth research.
Ding Qihan smiled and said, "I won't say anything to avoid disappointing you. Anyway, once we enter the desert, we'll be able to prove whether my guess is correct. Maybe I'll give you a huge surprise then."
"Then we'll wait and see!" Chen Yang said.
The group spurred their horses and galloped westward.
