Chapter 340： time is everything

Since the first mining engineering robot landed, the progress of rebuilding human industry has never stopped.

For human beings who are accustomed to the various conveniences after owning industry, without the support of industry, even the simplest farming cannot be effectively completed.

However, it is almost equivalent to building an industry from scratch, and the progress is not fast. Those cultivators who have been waiting for the help of various modern machinery and equipment are completely disappointed when they are about to land and cultivate.

"Because of rain and other reasons, the concentration of volcanic ash in the air can already allow human beings to work in the outside world for eight hours. Therefore, starting tomorrow, those who choose to work in farming or breeding will start landing to open up wasteland!"

After this notice was issued, the people on the three arks had their own thoughts. Many of them looked at the survivors who gloated and chose industrial construction jobs, full of regret in their hearts.

And some rich businessmen or politicians who were pampered before, used the reason that the outside air still affects human health to carry out various protests.

In their view, whether there is enough food is a problem for the superiors to consider. Since Li Daniu has pulled them out of the group of the superiors, don't let them take part in the work they despise dutifully.

"We have published all the air data and the meanings represented by the data, but so far, there are still 2,000 survivors who have chosen to work in farming or breeding, and refuse to disembark to open up wasteland."

Hearing Laura's return, Li Daniu was not worried at all. Instead, he said happily: "Are there only two thousand people? Much less than I imagined."

Laura reminded: "Our total population is only 530,000, of which the number of elderly and children exceeds 100,000. And there are only 70,000 people who choose farming or breeding."

"Well, I know that this ratio is very large, and these two thousand people may affect more people who are willing to land and open up wasteland." Li Daniu looked at the logistics minister at the side and asked, "Did you tell these people, If we refuse to work, will we deny them the supplies they need to live?"

The Minister of Logistics replied: "I have already said, but...they think that the law does not blame the public, and now that human beings themselves are the most important resource of human society, they feel that you will not really starve them to death!"

The people in the conference room all looked at Li Daniu. They were used to Li Daniu's authoritarian handling of key issues, and many of them had been looking forward to seeing Li Daniu's wrong handling.

"They are right, I will not starve them to death!" Li Daniu looked at the participants who thought he would compromise, and said calmly: "Arrest all those who refuse to land and open up wasteland, and then **** them to the New World , remember, put them in the second wasteland."

Everyone in the conference room was stunned, and a member of parliament said, "But, even if we send them all to the second wasteland, they will refuse to work."

"Work?" Li Daniu sneered and said, "I didn't expect them to work. Of course, they don't expect me to arrange someone to bring them back. Don't even expect me to arrange for them to have the necessary food and water."

Food and water are still secondary, and even the volcanic ash in the air is secondary. The most important thing is that if they are not brought back, then no one can bear the low temperature at night alone.

"If you do this, will it..."

Before the congressman finished speaking, Li Daniu gave him a look with a calm face. It was this look that made him choke on the words that came out of his throat, and made other people who had opinions dare not speak out.

Now, Li Daniu has successfully established his prestige, not to mention that no one dares to oppose him, at least when he issues some ambiguous orders, no one dares to oppose him face to face.

"Are there any other questions?"

Hearing Li Daniu's words, the Minister of Logistics said: "The most critical problem now is the transportation problem, because there is no place in the New World where the pioneers can live for a long time, so they have to go back to the ark to rest after finishing their work every day. Although the land reclamation The location is not too far away, but there are a total of 70,000 people involved in land reclamation. Judging by the number of our current transportation equipment, most of the time will be wasted on the journey. Moreover, the fuel problem will also be a very critical issue. The problem."

Alas, this is more troublesome than dealing with the government affairs of New Tuvalu.

Li Daniu sighed in his heart, looked at the Minister of Industry, and said, "Report on the construction progress of the new city."

The Minister of Industry stood up and said: "Currently, we already have 12 construction engineering robots. They are doing infrastructure work on the new city. It will take about five days before we can arrange for construction workers to land and start the construction of the new city." Construction is expected to take another month to meet the housing needs of 70,000 people."

Li Daniu looked at the logistics minister again, and asked, "Is there enough fuel for one month?"

"Enough is enough, but if we look at this level of consumption, we will run out of fuel after one month." The Minister of Logistics said worriedly: "If we can't find oil fields in time for exploitation, then All our transportation equipment will never be used again."

"It doesn't matter." Li Daniu said: "Fuel oil is not the energy we need in the future. Department of Science, have you completed the modification and inspection of those equipment?"

"Sixty-three percent of the inspection work has been completed." The Minister of Science said: "According to the transformation plan provided on Friday, we have confirmed that 63 percent of the fuel equipment can be transformed into Ark energy equipment. The remaining part , It will take about six days for testing."

Li Daniu nodded and asked, "Can the Ministry of Industry complete the transformation of those equipment?"

"It can be completed." The Minister of Industry said: "According to our modification of the previous three transport aircraft and the data shared by the Ministry of Science, we can confirm that 63% of the equipment can be modified."

"Okay, then this question is no longer a question." Li Daniu asked, "Are there any other questions?"

…

After the meeting, in Li Daniu's office, Laura put forward her opinion again.

"Mr. President, proper decentralization can increase work efficiency and reduce your workload. If you have to deal with these things every day, I'm afraid you won't have time to continue developing new products."

"How long do you think it will take to resolve today's issue if it is handed over to those congressmen?" Li Daniu did not wait for Laura to answer, and said directly: "I'm sure, just the first question, they need After discussing for at least a week, we may not be able to come up with a solution. The latter problem is actually not a problem at all. Their thinking has been stuck in the previous social experience, and they have not completely solved it because of the high technology I provided. Turn it around. It would waste a lot of time if they had to discuss it themselves.”

Laura was left speechless by Li Daniu's words. After a moment of silence, she said: "Mr. President, I always feel that you seem to be a little too concerned about time. The reconstruction of human society cannot be solved overnight. It will take at least ten days. It will take more than a year to recover. Do you want to complete this work in just a few years?"

ten years?

I don't have that much time in this world Li Daniu said earnestly: "Your thinking is completely wrong. Everyone thinks that it will take more than ten years, so we have to follow the time of ten years." Is it necessary to plan the progress of the work? What if more people say that it will take 20 years, or even 30 years?"

"However, almost all the survivors have no experience in land reclamation or other work. If the pressure is too tight, I am worried that they will collapse." Laura said from another angle: "After all, all of us have just experienced the end. "

"Since you choose to survive, you have to bear the hardships you will face in surviving!" Li Daniu said: "Compared with those who died in the disaster, no amount of work is nothing."

Looking at the silent Laura, Li Daniu felt that the atmosphere seemed to be getting a little serious. After coughing, he asked, "How is your and Adrian's... human creation work?"

Laura: "…"
