Chapter 1488 Deal!
Zhang Xuemei herself possesses a three-star intelligence level. Judging from this aspect alone, she is a typical outstanding talent. However, as a time traveler, she also possesses a wealth of knowledge in geological exploration, which makes her value higher than many four-star characters.
Of course, in this world today, in addition to the common ordinary ores, there are also many special ores. The existence of these ores basically exceeds Zhang Xuemei's knowledge reserves.
This also brings more challenges to Zhang Xuemei's work.
Fortunately, this world also has corresponding ways to deal with it.
In order to improve the work efficiency of the geological exploration team, the two mantras, 'Eye of Insight' and 'Eye of Secrets', have been fully arranged.
In fact, these two mantras are currently the most widely used mantras within the Great Zhou and have been used in many tasks.
But even so, it doesn't mean that they can just turn on the "Eye of Insight" or the "Eye of Secrets" and keep scanning the island.
Not to mention that Zhang Xuemei's spiritual talent is ordinary, only two stars, and she currently does not have the cultivation level of the extraordinary realm.
In fact, even an extraordinary wizard cannot withstand such a sweeping method.
In similar work, they often need to rely on their professional abilities to narrow the scope first, and then use the "Eye of Insight" or "Eye of Secrets" to accurately locate the target.
Judging from the size of this island, it would probably take more than two or three months to complete it.
Bai Tu was not in a hurry about this.
Their main task at this stage is to build defense facilities in coastal areas to guard against attacks from the Patton Empire's North Sea Fleet.
It is worth mentioning here that after obtaining enough intelligence from Charlie, Bai Tu immediately sent another speedboat back to report the situation and make further requests for assistance.
After all, according to our current understanding, the Patton Empire is definitely a tough nut to crack on the sea.
After Charlie Blazer's fleet disappeared, the other side would definitely take further actions.
At that time, if the Great Zhou wants to occupy this island and gain a firm foothold in this sea area, they will definitely need to station heavy troops on this island! Build a further island fortress!
As for the support troops, the main force arrived five days later.
Leaving aside the transport ships used to transport supplies, equipment and personnel, there were a total of six warships this time, all of which were fast ships, mainly serving as frigates to support the fleet.
After arriving at the tropical island, they all naturally came under Bai Tu's command.
In this way, apart from the speedboat that went back to report the news, Bai Tu now has fifteen speedboats under his command, plus a large warship. If the large enemy warship captured later can also be repaired, the number will increase to two.
As long as the Patton Empire's North Sea Fleet does not send out all its forces, but instead sends out two large warships plus twenty speedboats according to his previous speculation and analysis.
Faced with this situation, including their "air bombers", they are now capable of fighting!
This allowed Bai Tu to finally put his heart, which had been hanging in the balance for a while, at ease.
During this period, along with the support fleet, personnel from various departments of the Great Zhou also landed one after another, from the Ministry of Agriculture to the Ministry of Construction Engineering.
These people are here to lay the foundation for the future development of this tropical island.
Take the Ministry of Agriculture for example. They came with seeds, and during the remaining days of this winter, they will find a suitable place on the island to turn the soil. In the spring of next year, they can start planting directly.
The harvest is quick, with one wave of harvest in summer and another wave in autumn.
In this way, this island will have a relatively stable grain production capacity. With further development and expansion of the farmland, it will not be impossible for the front-line troops to become self-sufficient in food.
After all, it takes more than a month to travel back and forth from this tropical island to the nearest volcanic island in their Great Zhou.
At a time when transportation efficiency is limited and transportation capacity is tight, it would be good if we could reduce transportation costs.
At the same time, if a war breaks out and the island they are on is besieged by the Patton Empire, they will at least have a way to produce food while trapped on the island, and will not be cut off from food supply and destroyed.
After each department on the island started working, they all had their own procedures and logic, leaving basically no room for Bai Tu to intervene.
The arrival of various departments makes this tropical island more lively.
At this moment, the navy forces headed by Bai Tu have the same status as the senior security guards on this island. Their main job is to protect the lives and safety of staff in various departments.
A new day, after officially joining the Great Zhou army, Kara was happy and her personality became much more cheerful, which also allowed her to quickly become familiar with the Great Zhou soldiers around her.
At this moment, I look at Lin Youshu who is fighting one against two in actual combat training on the training ground.
Kara grinned and walked up slowly.
"They are too weak, so training like this won't work. Do you want me to train with you?"
Lin Youshu was moved when he heard this.
He and Kara are both currently one-star warriors in the Hundred Refining Realm. If Kara were to accompany him in actual combat training, the effect would definitely be stronger than that of three ordinary soldiers.
However, after spending some time together, Lin Youshu probably understood the character of this woman, and he didn't believe that this woman would be so kind.
"Tell me straight, what is your purpose?"
Kara didn't hide it and said directly...
"As a thank you, you have to give me half of your meat tonight!"
After joining the Great Zhou, Kara only received the same treatment as the soldiers of the Great Zhou, but this does not mean that she was treated the same as the officers of the Great Zhou.
In order to maintain his daily consumption, Lin Youshu has to eat five or six kilograms of meat every day.
If Kara wants to get this treatment, she must at least have some decent military achievements and get the rank of lieutenant.
But right now, in the short term, she has no chance at all.
But she was really greedy and hungry at the same time!
The army did not forbid her to have more food, but for a warrior in the Hundred Refinements Realm, eating only carbohydrates was not enough. Without enough meat, she would not be able to feel full throughout the day and would be hungry in a moment.
Only then did he set his sights on Lin Youshu.
After hearing this, Lin Youshu hesitated for a moment.
The supplies on the front line needed to be controlled. Even though he had the rank of lieutenant and was also Bai Tu's adjutant, he couldn't get as much meat as he wanted.
The reason why he can get this treatment now is that he has the strength of the Hundred Refining Realm, and his usual training consumes more energy and requires more nutrition.
If this was divided into half for Kara, it would definitely not be enough for him alone.
But Kara's proposal was really tempting to him.
"I'll give you one third at most."
"make a deal!"
