Chapter 93
"Children, they can all eat enough, grow fast, and occasionally eat some meat."
"With the organization, the neighbors are also very friendly, there will be no difficulties, and there will be no super-powered bodies."
Holding Su Feng's hand, Uncle Zhang chattered, acting like the simple and traditional middle-aged woman in Su Feng's memory.
When Su Feng first crossed over, if he saw a middle-aged man showing all the characteristics and personality of a middle-aged woman, he would probably feel at a loss.
But now, four or five years after crossing over, he has completely adapted.
And in order to adapt to this world, he slightly changed his way of speaking and personality, making himself look a little... feminine?
Su Feng was not sure.
After a friendly exchange with Uncle Zhang, Su Feng bid farewell to the orphanage and finally returned to the park headquarters in the city center.
At this moment, Su Feng saw someone standing in his office.
She seemed to be waiting for him.
"Aiya?"
Su Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.
It seems to have been a while since I last saw Aya.
And Aya looks no different from when she was in Paradise.
She is still wearing that tight leather jacket and hot pants that almost completely expose her round thighs, and the tool bag is half across her waist.
"Dear Su, long time no see."
Seeing Su Feng coming back, Aya behaved quite freely and boldly, directly calling Su Feng "Su", easily doing what the other two executives wanted to do but didn't dare to do.
"It's been a while since I last saw you, sorry, maybe I've been too busy recently."
Su Feng nodded thoughtfully, saying apologetically.
He didn't express any abnormality at all because of Aya's name, which seemed very close and even a little ambiguous in the eyes of outsiders.
After all, in Su Feng's eyes, this is just a name, and he has always allowed others to call him that.
"I have helped upgrade the Titan factory. Some arsenals that can manufacture simple firearms are also being built. It is expected that they will be able to go into production normally in a few months."
"In addition, based on the inspiration you provided before, I have also designed the blueprint of a tractor driven by super energy and handed it over to the Artisan Association in the Paradise."
"The production line of this agricultural tool will be put into construction soon."
With her hands in her pockets, Aya said as she approached Su Feng.
"Thank you for your contribution to the Paradise."
"No need to thank me. Most cities have the ability to manufacture firearms and mechanical tools that use super energy as fuel. Although there are few mecha types, some industrial city-states can do it. Even if I don't help the Paradise, the Paradise will be able to obtain these technologies in the future."
"What I should really thank you for is the courage you and the Paradise have to develop machinery."
The increase in population, the development of culture, the advancement of science and technology, the expansion of cities... Everything that is closely related to civilization has an upper limit. Once this upper limit is exceeded, super energy disasters will come.
Among these upper limits, the development of super energy occupies the least upper limit, while the development of technology, especially mechanical technology, occupies the most upper limit.
Therefore, even excellent mechanics and craftsmen are difficult to be valued in a city.
After all, not all people and all cities have the courage to develop technology and accept a large number of craftsmen and mechanics.
A small number of industrial contractors dare to develop industry because there is a certain bottom line.
Aya knows very well that Paradise is one of them.
"I have finished all the mechanical matters. I have a good time with the craftsmen in Paradise. Many of them are not mediocre."
"But as the leader of Paradise, Su, you should know that the current resource situation of Paradise is not optimistic."
Aya said while taking out a map from her backpack and putting it on Su Feng's desk.
Everything has a price.
Paradise is very tolerant to internal members and all residents who are willing to follow Paradise, and will provide all kinds of help and convenience.
But help and convenience require resources to support.
The construction of Paradise's branches in various cities, the maintenance of routes in the wilderness, the production of "Titan" mechas, the support of the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and the civilian staff who are separated from production... These big and small things together require a lot of resources.
After all, ideals are ideals, and reality is reality.
The reason why the paradise established by Su Feng can grow so rapidly and be supported and sought after by so many people is that it can not only meet people's ideals, but also solve the problem of people not going hungry.
The main way for the paradise to obtain resources is: mining small and medium-sized resource points in the wilderness and using "Jin Ke La" to produce more food.
These two ways were very suitable for the paradise in the past. Not only could they produce enough resources for the paradise, but they could also have more than enough. But now that the paradise has grown and developed, relying only on these two ways, the speed of obtaining resources can no longer keep up with consumption.
Given the current situation, the park will soon be in a state of deficit, and it will be a question how many people will continue to follow the park at that time.
Su Feng had considered this before, so he had been looking for a solution to this problem.
But unfortunately, there has not been much progress now.
"Su, I said I used to be a wandering merchant."
Spreading the map on the table, Aya pointed to five or six cities and some small human settlements scattered in the northeast of the map.
"I have been to some cities and marked them."
"The park can trade with these cities and settlements and establish connections."
"Get more resources through trade to prevent the park from falling into a state of deficit in the future."
As she spoke, Aya briefly introduced these cities.
[Rift Valley City: A city built on the rift valley, with a small population, rich in metals, and extremely rare "metal parts veins" in the canyon. It is one of the few industrial cities. ]
[Flower City: It seems to be affected by some special factors. A large number of flowers grow in the city, and the artistic atmosphere is relatively strong. ]
[Sky City: The largest city in the vast northwest region, which uses electricity on a large scale. There are some skyscrapers and special defense facilities left over from previous civilizations in the city. ]
[Vidox: A lakeside town with a cultural style that is incompatible with other cities. It is similar to the lakeside cities in Paradise, but its development status is much worse than that of the lakeside cities under Paradise, and there are also some terrible legends circulating. ]
[Salt City: ...]
After introducing these cities, Aya briefly described her plan again.
No matter which city, there is a gap in the demand for food.
And now because of "Golden Ke La", Paradise not only has no gap in food, but also has a lot of food stored.
Paradise can sell food and some special products that are not available in the northwest to these cities at prices they can accept, and then sell these special products to other cities at more suitable prices.
In this way, Paradise can obtain enough basic resources and precious resources through trade routes.
Of course, you can also promote the concept of Paradise or do something in the name of Paradise.
After listening to Aya's description, Su Feng pondered for a while and nodded in agreement.
Trading is indeed a good method, and it can also promote communication between each other.
And as long as the price of the transaction is controlled within a reasonable range, it will be a win-win situation for both parties.
"What kind of help do you need?"
Su Feng asked again, and Aya pointed at Su Feng.
"I need a large trading team, and... Mr. Su himself."
"Me?"
Su Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, not understanding what Aya meant.
Aya laughed and said without hiding anything.
"My relationship with most cities there... well, it may not be very harmonious."
"Mr. Su is very good at diplomacy. I believe that with your personal charm, those cities will definitely be willing to cooperate with Paradise."
"And..."
After a pause, Aya looked deeply at Su Feng, with a little meaning in her amber eyes.
"There is a city ruin from the previous civilization."
"The city ruins are still in a working state. According to my investigation, it seems that only people who have connections with the previous civilization can enter."
"And it seemed that it was once called the Roof of the World?"
Chapter 137 Su Feng Fanfiction in "Hedgehog Dog Reading"...
"The Roof of the World..."
"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes."
"But the Roof of the World should not refer to the city left over from the previous civilization."
"After all, that area is a plain, and there are very few mountains and hills. It is impossible to be the highest altitude area in the world of Terra."
"Mr. Su, do you have any clues?"
Faced with Aya's inquiry, Su Feng remained silent for a rare time.
Looking at the map that Aya spread out on the desk, Su Feng compared the distance between the cities and human settlements in the northeast of the map and the location of the lakeside city, and he fell into a dilemma again.
The cities recorded by Aya are far away from the lakeside city and the city where the paradise has established branches.
Putting aside the many unexpected situations that may be encountered in the wilderness, if we only take the pure distance as a reference, even if the entire trade team is equipped with vehicles, it will take more than half a year to go back and forth.
If various uncertain factors are added, the time may be even longer.
Of course, Su Feng is talking about the paradise's trade team here, not himself.
Su Feng himself has "BT" behind him. Relying on the speed of "BT" flying close to the ground and countless obstacles, Su Feng only needs about half a month to go back and forth.
If "BT" has other functions, such as turning into a magnetic levitation motorcycle or a flying car, the speed should be reduced to more than ten days.
But Su Feng certainly cannot leave the Paradise's trade team and move forward alone. What if he goes ahead and the Paradise members in the trade team are in danger in the wilderness?
Thinking of this, Su Feng inevitably fell into a dilemma.
Now the first stage of "When the Stars Return to Their Positions" has just ended. Although the second stage that will erupt later is not as big as the first stage, the "Starry Sky" super energy body brought by the meteorite is not easy to deal with.
He has just returned to the Paradise headquarters, and there are still some things in the Paradise that he needs to deal with.
However, the roof of the world, the ruins of the former civilization city...
This is too important for Su Feng.
The ruins of the former civilization city in the abyss have been eroded by the strong super energy in the abyss and have been completely unrecognizable. There is no useful information at all to prove Su Feng's inference in his heart.
But the ruins of the former civilization on the surface are different. There is a high possibility that there is strong evidence to prove the thing that Su Feng is worried about.
"Pre-civilization...Pre-civilization...Pre-civilization..."
Repeating this word like talking to himself, Su Feng's originally calm mood inevitably became anxious and panic again.
If it was fake, he didn't know how to deal with it.
But if it was true... he didn't know how to deal with it.
"System."
Suddenly, Su Feng asked the system.
[What's wrong? What's wrong? The host is here! ]
The system did not reply immediately, but replied after a moment as if it was delayed.
"Is there any way to make a person see what happened in the past?"
[See what happened in the past...]
After thinking carefully, the system said regretfully.
[It seems that there is no such method, and there is no prop in the store that can make people see things in the past. ]
However, the system's style changed again, and added another sentence in an almost intriguing tone.
[However, many systems on the hedgehog dog side have [simulation] capabilities. If you have the opportunity to catch them later, you can rob... no, borrow one from them. 】
【The [Simulation] ability may help the host see what happened in the past. 】
【Anyway, they are weak and kind-hearted, so they won't say anything if I simply borrow an ability. 】
