At noon the next day.
The first batch of steel that Tang Zheng put into production yesterday was finally completed.
Considering the output of the synthesis table for two 12h, a total of 12 pieces of steel are produced.
Two pieces of steel are reserved for standby, and the remaining 10 are combined with Firestone to make them into a high-temperature furnace!
The synthesis station has a queue function. Although one high-temperature furnace can be produced in 12 hours, it takes only five days to make all 10 furnaces.
Of course, during this period, 10 ordinary furnaces were not idle and continued to let them produce steel.
10 parts of steel can be produced every day.
Originally, Tang Zheng could make more ordinary furnaces.
However, the furnace covers an area of about the combined size of two suitcases. 10 ordinary furnaces in a row are placed not far from the door of the house.
The high temperature in it is at least as high as 1000 ℃ and continues to radiate around.
I almost burned the tree next to my house in the middle of the night yesterday.
Fortunately, Moffett, who was on standby for 24 hours, found this danger, automatically recognized the danger warning of the fire, and went to the lake to get water to put out the small flames.
Although the water in the wetland forest is very sufficient, as long as the temperature reaches a certain level, the water in the surrounding trees will be baked dry, and the dry wood will naturally ignite a fire.
Forest fire is a very dangerous and terrible disaster. Once lit, the whole wetland forest covering hundreds of thousands of square meters will be destroyed if there is no natural rainfall.
"Although human beings can make use of civilization to facilitate their own life, if they don't use it reasonably, it will cause disaster to human beings and the whole nature." Tang Zheng pointed to the outer skin of a big tree burned to gray black in front of him and taught LAN LAN on the spot.
"Want to live together with nature, right?" Lan Lan blinked his eyes like a spring, asking.
"From the moment of birth, human beings began to demand from nature, which has never stopped either on the earth or in this alien world. However, energy always has an end, so the awareness of environmental protection and regeneration should start from the time when science and technology has not started." Tang Zheng said with great sincerity.
I'm not kidding.
Although this alien world is at least ten times larger than the earth.
With an average distribution of 2 billion people, it can be regarded as a vast land with few people and almost endless collection of resources.
But don't forget that people today are completely different from when they were on earth.
The substantial improvement of properties will lead to the doubling of mining efficiency and energy consumption.
If China's state institutions are moved to this foreign world, with so many resources, in the name of infrastructure mania, we can't wait to build high-rise buildings in rural areas.
But the transitional energy collection is not the earth or the planet.
The matter in the universe is always conserved, but the consumed matter has become unusable by human beings.
It is human beings who eat back.
"So, how to do?" Lan Lan forced a little head.
"Plant trees." Tang Zheng said softly.
"Your task today is to go to the west of the forest with Murphy. There is an area that has been mined. Shovel all the tree stumps. The tree stumps can also become part of wood. If you can sell them, you can sell them as your pocket money. In the remaining pit, plant a batch of rubber tree seeds and a batch of pine seeds." Tang Zheng touched two bags of tree species from the item column, Throw it to LAN LAN.
The importance of trees to human beings is self-evident.
It is an important way to regenerate oxygen on the planet and a defender of locking in surface water.
Where there are no trees, with the passage of time, the surface will become a desert or a bare rock body. It is impossible to build houses and grow food on it.
Among the trees, rubber tree and pine tree are the two most useful woods for Tang Zheng at this stage.
One can collect and extract rubber, while the other can extract resin, that is, the raw material for making plastics.
Among the branch lines of civilization towards the semi industrial era, there is the branch line of plastics. After the pine trees grow up, they can start refining and manufacturing.
save against a rainy day.
As for the tree species, Tang Zheng bought them from the players on the forum yesterday. The price is not expensive.
After all, at this stage, in the case of civilization restrictions, many players want these things to have little effect.
"OK! We must finish the task!" Lan Lan was very small, serious and focused.
Taking two bags of seeds, Tang Zheng gave her an iron shovel, full of LAN LAN and so on.
As for Murphy... You don't have to give it tools. In terms of its size, pulling out the tree root is like pulling out a radish. It comes down with the palm of your hand.
"Teacher, bye bye, I can go to earn pocket money." looking at the little girl's vigorous carrying the shovel away, Tang Zheng can not help thinking of her childhood.
Mineral water bottles or paper and cardboard that you don't want at home, you save a pile every time, and then take them to the garbage collection bin to sell a few scattered dollars and buy a bottle of iced coke.
In the hot summer, listen to the "Yiyi" sound developed by screwing the bottle cap, and then take a big sip of cold and refreshing coke.
A satisfied 'ah ~' exclamation is a happy memory of childhood.
"Speaking of it, I haven't drunk carbonated drinks for nearly a month. I don't know what the earth is like now." Tang Zheng sighed softly.
Immediately, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Perhaps the earth without human beings is its healthiest appearance.
After the collective transfer of all mankind for 28 days, I'm afraid most towns and streets on the earth are full of wild animals.
All kinds of stored broken food will also begin to produce mold.
If the time is longer, it is not uncommon for trees to grow at home.
Soon, Tang Zheng took back his thoughts floating far away.
Let's live in front of us first. Whether we can return to the earth in this life is two things.

As the evening approached, the first high-temperature furnace was born.
Excellent properties, steel and flint structure.
The maximum internal temperature can reach 5000 degrees Celsius, just like a small sun.
You know, the surface temperature of the sun is only 6000 degrees Celsius.
Under this high temperature, almost all solid surface rocks can be melted.
Take out 10 pieces of Lishi, throw it into the high-temperature furnace and add wood.
[high temperature furnace is producing refined Lishi, remaining time - 5:59:59]
With the progress of civilization, the production time of these materials is getting longer and longer.
But so do other players.
Tang Zheng estimated that if civilization develops to the later stage, when it can make aircraft and ships, it may take several months to build an aircraft.
However, even in a few months, it has crossed thousands of years of human civilization, and the speed is still as fast as taking off by rocket.
From the small window of the high-temperature furnace, Tang Zheng can see the blue flame burning inside.
The blue flame means that the internal temperature is as high as 5000 or 6000 degrees Celsius.
In ancient times, when humans did not have professional high-temperature testing instruments, experienced blacksmiths could judge the temperature in the flame only through the naked eye.
Its principle is easy to explain in modern times.
When the flame temperature is lower, it will emit a longer wavelength luster, that is, the warm color of red, orange and yellow.
The higher the flame temperature, the shorter wavelength light, that is, blue and purple light, will be emitted.
When the temperature approaches tens of thousands of degrees Celsius, the color of the flame will disappear and form ultraviolet luster, which can not be captured by human eyes.
Of course, it is limited to the refracted light in the atmosphere.
After standing next to the furnace for a while, Tang Zheng was already hot and sweating.
Fortunately, the items produced by the synthesis platform have some special hidden attributes.
It can isolate part of the high temperature and float to the outside world.
"Fortunately, it's a little far away from home this time. This area is a little empty, so it won't cause spontaneous combustion of trees." Tang Zheng looks around. This is the concentrated intrusion point of the previous monster frenzy. The fierce battle has uprooted all the trees in this area, leaving only a bare land.
However, in terms of scope, it is only enough for about ten high-temperature furnaces.
More, I'm afraid it will burn the trees.
"The synthesizer can't stay idle and continue to do things." Tang Zheng thought.
After a choice between a second high-temperature furnace and steel tools.
Priority production tool selected.
Throw the steel into the synthesis platform. The production time of 12h will not be completed until you wake up tomorrow.
————
The 30th day of survival.
Human beings have been transferred to this alien world for a month.
The development of civilization, from unarmed to now, almost all people have entered the bronze age.
Tang Zheng saw the civilization process of gradual prosperity from the photos or videos uploaded by some players on the forum.
In the major tribes, neat stone houses have been built one after another. They are arranged in a straight line and look like villages.
In front of the house, a straight slate road forms a street from east to west.
On the stone pavement, wooden trolleys or horse drawn carts have been put into use.
There are also many stall cultures, including breakfast, clothing, daily use, entertainment and other measures.
Planting and animal husbandry have developed, and other diversified elements are also making progress.
Except that there is no shadow of modern civilization, other aspects have tended to be improved.
It's like going back to ancient times.
"Just......" Tang Zheng sighed slightly.
Although the present civilization is beautiful, it is only temporary.
Human greed will become more and more intense with the increase of demand.
Before the regional war breaks out in full swing, there will certainly be inevitable wars within the region.
Sure enough, one second before the idea fell, the next second, Tang Zheng saw a war collection order.
[military recruitment!! well paid! Those who are interested come!]
The post details the recruitment process in the main building.
The reason is that a tribe called "hyena" is not too far away from the cheetah tribe. The two tribes share a river.
But the hyena tribe is upstream. Some players in the tribe often take a bath, wash clothes or wash their prey in the river.
As a result, the water resources of the cheetah tribe have been polluted.
After fruitless negotiations, they had to start a war.
In area 96, which used to be peaceful, due to the emergence of this war post, many other tribes with conflicts but have been forbearing are also like a powder keg lit.
Major war Posts began to pop up crazily.
Because of the uneven distribution of mineral resources sharing a mountain, some recruits are ready to fight.
Also, due to sharing a small forest, the output of wood is not enough, so we are ready to do one.
For various reasons, the core point of the contradiction only points to one key - the competition for resources.
In fact, this alien land is vast, sparsely populated and rich in materials.
If humans are evenly distributed in every part of the alien world, resources are enough to collect and use.
However, there is a problem that will be exposed with the continuous rise of player civilization.
Expansion of territory.
When we first moved, we all lived alone, nibbling on bark and drinking rain.
But now everyone is in a group.
As soon as there are more people, it means that the required territory area becomes larger.
The rapid development of civilization means that people who used to make do with living in caves and tree houses want to live in houses.
I can live in a house. Why don't I build it?
I can farm. Why don't I?
Housing area, planting, animal husbandry, scope of activities and territory will continue to expand due to the surge of civilization.
Just like living in a one bedroom, one person is very comfortable, but it is a truth that living in three people will be very crowded.
Originally, the two people were thousands of meters apart and seemed to be in peace.
But now 200 people are divided into two tribes, thousands of meters apart.
The contradiction is coming.
Whose is this forest?
Why do you live up the river? Why didn't I want to wash my underwear up the river? A water field?
Is your account on this stone? Why can't I mine?
All kinds of contradictions collide fiercely.
There is another inevitable contradiction.
If it's just two people.
There was a conflict, I can't do you... Shall I go?
The sea is wide with fish jumping. Don't it smell good if I change places?
But once there are more people.
The house is built here. Just because the people upstream of you have a bad work and rest, the people downstream of me have to swallow it and move the whole village?
Who's special? It's not a baby yet!
Let's have a fucking fight first!
As for being defeated and driven away, that is another matter.
But if you don't fight, you can go straight away. Even the male animals who are courting should be divided into high and low, not to mention the human beings with deep thinking.
No tribal leader can stand such anger.
These contradictions cannot be avoided until the tribes form an effective small country and rule all this area.
Of course, it's not just within zone 96.
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. When there are rivers and lakes, there are naturally disputes.
so
Global civilization began to embark on an inevitable path - war.
When the outside world cries out to fight and kill and fight to the death, and wants to beat a man's head into a dog's head.
Tang Zheng sat leisurely on the recliner, holding a watermelon in his hand.
Take a big bite.
The sweet juice overflowed the whole mouth.
Spit seeds, and then look at the local war situation on the forum.
Finally made a pertinent evaluation.
"Well, the melon is really delicious."
