i have a super island

Chapter 424 Coral Mining Plan

Time flies, and it will soon be night.

Fang Fang led everyone to mine a lot of stones, and they were all piled up on the ground outside the house for the time being.

On the hillside behind the house, Ah Yue dug a new foundation with a few natives. As long as everything is in place, the wall can be built tomorrow.

Everyone else was going well, only Song Zhixi encountered a little trouble.

At the end of the day, the shells picked up by several girls are only one basket, which is obviously not enough to burn lime.

Without lime, it is impossible to build a stone house. No matter how much stone is mined, no matter how deep the foundation is dug, without lime, there is no way to build a house.

When Fang Fang and the others moved into their new house, everyone felt envious. At this time, everyone wanted to move into their own house as soon as possible.

So the collection of shells was not going well, and everyone's morale became low, with frustration on everyone's face.

"In fact, besides collecting shells, we have other ways to burn lime."

In order to cheer everyone up and prevent negative emotions from spreading in the team, Li Qingman mentioned the matter of Lime during the meal.

Tang Guo asked anxiously: "Sister Qingman, what else can I do?"

Li Qingman said: "During the day, I discussed with Mr. Lu that besides conch and shells, coral reefs are also materials that can be used to burn lime."

"That's right! Why didn't I think of it!"

Wei Lin slapped herself on the head hard, scolding herself for being too stupid for not thinking of such a solution.

Tang Guo was very surprised and said, "Can coral reefs also be fired with lime?"

Wei Lin nodded her chin and explained: "Yes, the main ingredient of coral reefs is calcium carbonate, which will turn into lime after being fired at high temperature. Long ago in our country, people in the South China Sea collected corals for firing. Lime, this is a method that has existed since ancient times."

After speaking, Wei Lin added, "However, the method of mining coral and burning lime has been banned."

"Why?" Tang Guo asked.

"Because coral reefs can be called tropical rainforests in the ocean, coral reefs have rich ecosystems, and a large number of marine organisms live in them. Destroying coral reefs means destroying the ecological environment of the ocean. Therefore, mining corals in many countries has been banned. .”

Li Qingman said: "This point is irrelevant to us. Right now we are in urgent need of lime, and it doesn't matter if we mine some."

Different worlds have to follow different rules. It is definitely not possible to collect corals in the real world, but no one can tell where the small island they are on is.

Maybe it's a different world, maybe it's a crack in time and space, or maybe it's a parallel world. In short, it's extremely inappropriate to apply the same set in reality here.

In reality, the coral reefs were destroyed because of large-scale rotten mining. Even if there were more than a dozen people on the island, no matter how hard they tried, they were just some coral reefs in the shallow sea around Huohuo Island.

After all, now the island needs to develop and the people on the island need to survive. In the initial stage of development, environmental issues are not so important.

Fang Fang also expressed his attitude, saying: "Build the house first, and then we will consider other things. Food, clothing, housing, transportation, and housing are also one of the first problems to be solved. The plan for mining coral and burning lime has been decided like this."

Seeing that Equation had already expressed their opinions, the others naturally had no objections. Wei Lin seemed to want to say something, but she took it back.

"How about this, let me first count who is good at water?" Equation asked the survey.

"I."

As a result, Ayue was the only one who raised his hand.

Fang Fang's face was filled with embarrassment, but after thinking about it, it seemed to be true. Ayue was the only person on the island who was able to go to the shallow water area to collect coral reefs.

"Okay, then it's settled like this. Ayue will be responsible for collecting corals from tomorrow." Fang Fang looked at Tang Guo and Rebecca, "You two will be responsible for collecting food. Now there are [-] corals on the island. Personally, the consumption of food is getting bigger and bigger, and the work of collecting food is getting heavier and heavier, thank you both for your hard work."

After briefly arranging tomorrow's work matters, Fang Fang asked everyone again if they had anything else to do. Everyone was tired after a busy day, so they had to go to bed early if they had nothing else to do.

After the show ended, Wei Lin came to the equation, and seemed to have something to say.

"Brother Fang, can I have a few words to talk to you?"

"Oh, all right, let's talk about it here."

Li Qingman at the side glanced at Fang Fang and said, "You talk to Wei Lin first, and I'll talk to Zhixi."

"Thank you, Sister Qingman." Wei Lin looked at Li Qingman gratefully.

"It's okay, you two talk slowly."

Li Qingman smiled generously, and then went to Song Zhixi's room.

Fang Fang glanced at the nervous girl, and asked with a smile, "Am I scary? Why do you still tremble when you talk to me?"

Wei Lin whispered: "Brother Fang, what you said is right, building a house is the primary problem we have to solve now. But..." When we got here, Wei Lin hesitated and did not continue.

"It's okay, just talk."

"Now we are just building houses, and we need limited lime. If we want to build more roads, build more houses, build towering walls, and build fortresses against enemies on the island in the future...all of these need lime. "

Wei Lin's words made Fang Fang raise his eyebrows and widen his eyes. Obviously, these words reached Fang Fang's heart.

Equation has always been a person who thinks far ahead, so he has thought about all the questions Wei Lin raised.At that moment, Fang Fang looked at Wei Lin with admiration and anticipation in his eyes. Being able to consider these shows that this girl has a vision that ordinary people don't have.

"Then what do you think?" Fang Fang looked at Wei Lin with a smile.

"Let's not talk about the ecological issue, it's not what we need to consider." Wei Lin seized the opportunity and expressed her thoughts to the equation, "Open source and reduce expenditure. On the issue of lime, what we need to do is open source. This sea area There are so many small islands, and the sea chart records in detail the things that are rich in those islands, give me a night, and I will definitely find something."

Fang Fang smiled gratifiedly and said, "Don't be in such a hurry, just take your time. You are exhausted from picking shells today, so go to bed earlier."

Wei Lin felt as if she had been beaten with chicken blood at this moment. She was so excited that she didn't feel sleepy at all, and begged, "Brother Fang, the bonfire outside is too dark and the sea breeze is too strong, can you lend me a room?" , I want to study the chart quietly in the room."

"It's easy, just go to Liana's place, and I'll ask your sister Qingman to send you an oil lamp in a while."

"Thank you, thank you so much Brother Fang, I will definitely bring you good news tomorrow."
