Just being a dark elf in Warhammer

The patrol team set off from Chapeuto and headed north. After encountering several teams going to Ashril Province to pick cotton, it gradually approached the border between Chapeiuto Province and the rainforest. As the team moved forward, the air began to be filled with moisture and the temperature gradually increased.

The scenery along the way is still dizzying, with fruit trees scattered in an orderly manner and branches and leaves intertwined to create shade. Frequent rainfall in the rainy season makes these trees more lush, and their green leaves shine freshly in the humid air. The sun shines through the thick clouds, occasionally casting a ray of soft light, and the leaves seem to glow with a slight golden color. The air is filled with fresh and moist breath, accompanied by a hint of sweet fragrance.

It is the fruiting period at this time, showing a kind of quiet vitality. Tropical fruits such as pineapple, papaya, guava, and avocado have already produced fruits. However, they are not yet fully mature, and the fruit skin is still green and has not yet been dyed with full color. Pick. Although the fruits on the branches are not abundant enough, they are dotted among the green trees and hanging low among the moist branches and leaves like clusters of gems waiting for their time to bloom.

After Dakoos entered the mango orchard and walked around, he felt like he had seen the grass-roots team.

The mango grown here is somewhat similar to Kate Mango. The fruit is large, wide-rimmed and round. The weight of a single fruit is nearly 700 grams. The peel is green, the sunny side is purple-red, and the flesh is orange-yellow. It is thin, low in fiber, sweet and juicy, and of high quality. , resistant to storage and transportation, and has a long shelf life, but this variety is susceptible to angular spot disease, and here the Ketmang is not called Ketmang, but "Ashrelman".

There were no mango trees when he was here before. The seedlings were brought from the Moon City and Itaza's floating gardens. Alyssa and the transferred skinks took over the planting. The fruit trees were waiting for him during his departure. Only then will it grow and bear fruit.

And then nothing happened...

The orchards he inspected had a very primitive feel, with a bare shelf and nothing else.

He is an outsider in the field of agricultural planting. He only knows some general knowledge, such as grafting and raising seedlings, but he has no idea about the purity of the variety, the distance between the grafted part and the ground, or how to judge the leaves.

To put it bluntly, even if he was standing and beeping, he would be confused if he started doing it.

But the good news is that these empty shelves are based on local conditions, reasonable layout, and giving full play to resource advantages. Mangoes are greatly affected by two meteorological factors: temperature and humidity. Dry climate is conducive to mango flowering and fruiting, while low temperature and rainy weather seriously affect pollination and fertilization. , there will also be frost damage, but you don’t have to worry about these problems here. The altitude and weather here are suitable for growing mangoes, and there is enough water so there will be no water, soil or fertilizer leakage.

In other words, the empty shelves were established according to the intensive and efficient cultivation model from the beginning.

The so-called intensification refers to the intensive and deepening of labor and resource factors, or the simplicity and saving of raw materials and natural resources. It is manifested in the improvement of the quality of survival factors and the improvement of labor productivity, and the rational allocation of various production factors to achieve the best combination and optimal utilization to obtain maximum benefits.

To put it bluntly, it means that it has completed the leap from ancient times to modern times... I dare not say in modern times, but there must be some in modern times.

In general, Dakoos is satisfied. The framework and system are in place, and the orchard has all the conditions for wide-row and dense planting, planting of large seedlings, and soil, fertilizer, and water management.

After Emerald Garden officially takes over, and after the Guilun style, dwarf plastic construction, flower and fruit management, comprehensive pest control and safe production are put in place, the orchard's output will gradually increase within ten to twenty years, and finally reach its peak. , which was in line with his expectations. Because, now that the population is here, there is not that much demand. When the population increases, the output of the orchards will gradually increase.

Except for the first mango orchard, he never went into any subsequent orchards. He simply stood outside, looking at the scenery and admiring it. Except for the different fruit trees, the pattern is the same pattern.

Maybe it's because there aren't enough seedlings. Many orchards were drawn out during horse races, leaving them bare and empty. Some fruit trees are still in the growing stage, such as cocoa trees.

The orchard area is very large, and it took a whole day of walking and walking. It was not until evening that the parade arrived at the core area of ​​fruit cultivation.

It is said to be the core area, not because there are any strange fruits and magic crops grown here that need to be guarded, but because in addition to the settlements, several large glass manufacturing plants and fruit processing plants are lined up in rows. The presence of the factory has not destroyed the natural beauty of this area. The rolling orchards seem to have created a green barrier for this busy land. The river meanders through, the clear water sparkling in the sun, and occasionally a few birds can be seen flying across the water.

As early as the last time, this place was planned. With the factory area as the core and radiating outwards, the factory area that can directly obtain sand is dedicated to the production of glass and cans.

He went to one of the glass factories for a walk. When he entered, he was hit by a heat wave. The factory echoed with the sonorous sound of knocking and the low roar of burning flames. The air was filled with the faint smell of saltpeter and sand dust.

The fire was blazing, and several workers gathered around the furnace, carefully manipulating the iron pipes to guide the molten glass slurry out of the red furnace mouth. The smooth, translucent molten glass spiraled on the iron pipes like a viscous liquid. out. The workers moved quickly and calmly. They expertly rotated the blowpipe quickly to keep the hot glass liquid even. Occasionally, someone would put the iron pipe into the water to cool for a while, and then immediately return to the furnace to continue working.

Because of his arrival and the team, there was a commotion in the factory, but under the pressure of management, the workers quickly restored order. The scene he saw was very performative, and every worker was focused, as if every detail in his hands was crucial.

A worker did not blow hard, but blew gently and easily, as if showing off his skills. Then the glass bubble gradually expanded and presented a smooth arc. After blowing, he handed it to the worker next to him, and did not forget to look at his position quietly.

The worker next to him glanced at the worker who was showing off his skills with contempt, and quickly cut off the excess part with scissors to prevent the glass from deforming when cooling. And another craftsman held a spatula and slowly shaped the newly formed glass to ensure a smooth surface.

There are no complicated mechanical equipment here. He also had an experimental glass factory when he was in Nagaros. The current glass factory is a replica of that time. The process, procedures, and even the capital behind it are exactly the same.

The craftsmanship was developed by the sorceresses in Nagarond, that is, the manual bottle blowing method, using a piston pump to suck a ball of hot glass from the surface of a pot of molten glass into a glass bottle mold, and then the piston pump is reversed to blow the glass into the shape of a bottle, without any upgrades.

The capital is the German dread lords of Nagaron, headed by Hirsis. When Daxus was preparing the glass factory and canning factory in Nagarond, they were very attentive and enthusiastic. At that time, seeing the political and economic benefits, they invested part of the available cash flow into it.

When the fleet set out from Nagarond to the continent of Lustria, Malekith's good mother set fire to the canning factory in Nagaron. However, those factories were originally experimental in nature, and he was just playing around. He didn't feel bad about burning them, just as the price of exchanging those stone slabs.

But now it's different. If Morathi dares to light up these factories, he will definitely let Morathi see his style when he swings the sword. Even Malekith can't stop him, he said.

With the burning of the factory, the shift of focus and the emergence of investment in Asheril, Hirsis and others turned their attention to this place again, so... only a small part of the workers here need to engage in heavy labor dispatch, and most of the other workers are Duruchi women workers from Nagarond and Krakarond.

Unlike the South Seas in a certain period, the female workers really work after coming here. There is a kind of beauty that men are used as animals and women are used as men.

Moreover, they were screened once before departure, screened again before boarding the ship, and screened again after arriving in Asheril.

In a sense, this place is a paradise for female workers. After coming here, they don't have to worry about the cold problem, there are abundant supplies, they don't have to face long-term and continuous hunger, and they can choose a suitable partner.

The settlement divided into three parts next to the factory has already taken shape as Dakus expected.

One of them is very small, belonging to the labor dispatch. They jump out of the three realms, are not within the scope of the Mita corvée system, and serve the factory exclusively.

Another small piece belongs to the lizardmen, mainly a large number of spirit lizards and a small number of giant lizards, without lizardmen, they are transferred from various temple cities in the north. The spirit lizards were previously engaged in related planting work. Before the garden system was formed, they were positioned as agricultural technicians. Most of the fruit trees were planted, grafted and maintained by them. Of course, their level is there. The giant lizards play the role of laborers, and they are indispensable for moving trees.

Finally, there is a large piece, belonging to Duruchi.

Dakuus stayed here for a while, mainly for inspection, meetings and planning.

He felt a little inferior during the inspection. He seemed out of tune with the elves and could only find a sense of existence in the red dragon. Without him, his knife skills were already very exquisite, but compared with other elves, it was still a bit Dubai.

Of course, this is just an exaggerated way of expression.

The objects of cold chain transportation are mainly divided into three categories: fresh products such as meat, eggs, milk, aquatic products and flowers, processed foods such as quick-frozen foods, and pharmaceutical products. Cold chain transportation is an important part of cold chain logistics. The transportation cost is high, and it requires fast loading and transportation, light loading and unloading, and heat and frost protection.

To be more intuitive, to achieve cold chain transportation, we first need sustainable energy such as oil. This is what Duruqi can do at present, because there is magic in this world. As long as the cabin is properly modified, and then let the warlock or storm weaver cast spells for maintenance, or use gems to provide continuous energy. But it cannot be promoted on a large scale. There is no special refrigeration ship at present, and the ship is so big, and the cabin is so big.

But then again, there is still a solution. Can a living person be suffocated to death by urine? Convert the cabin of the entire ship into a special refrigeration ship, which is maintained by the caster. When the raider is put into use, it can also form a chain management. The raider can act as a helicopter, allowing the caster to move from one ship to another in a short time. One ship can carry the entire fleet, which is a bit exaggerated, but one ship can carry ten or five ships.

But then again, even if there are refrigerated ships, they cannot be used to transport fruits. Fruits are not necessities for survival, but food and meat are. At this stage, it is too luxurious to use them to transport fruits.

Darkius had come up with an idea a long time ago. Malekith's court was called a court, but it was just that. There were only a few people in the Black Tower. When he returned, the Black Tower would be his office. Malekith would not stay in the Black Tower most of the time, because he was responsible for the army and would usually stay in the barracks to deal with officers and soldiers.

He did not need the Thorn Sisters. For him, Genevieve was enough as the chief steward. The group of Thorn Sisters seemed a little embarrassed in this situation.

Now the Thorn Sisters have been divided. Some of them stayed in Asheril and became the backbone members of the garden. The other part continued to go north. He planned to divide those who went north as well. Some of them would follow Malekith, and the other part...

He planned to implement a vegetable basket plan in Naggaroth so that Duruchi and the labor dispatch tables would have vegetables to adjust. I dare not say anything else, but I dare to pat my chest and guarantee that there would be enough potatoes, carrots, cabbage and radishes!

This is where the Thorn Sisters come in. The sky in the north of Naggaroth is always lead-gray, with little sunlight. Therefore, there is no need to build the characteristic glass greenhouse of the elves. In addition to the floor space, how much glass would be needed if it was laid out? Just dig a hole and do greenhouse planting.

The hole must be dug. The giant beasts of the Druki family need to live in the hole on weekdays, so they simply dug a bigger hole under the military camp. Part of it is managed by the Thorn Sisters and used to grow vegetables, mushrooms and some special magical plants, such as small props used during blind dates.

Playing the tulip set, there is no problem with lighting, don’t you have the arcane ball? This way, you can serve Malekith and grow vegetables at the same time, killing two birds with one stone. When harvesting vegetables, let the company with excellent performance on weekdays harvest them. For the soldiers, this is not a punishment, but a reward and adjustment.

When Druki leaves Naggaroth, these holes can be left for the orcs to grow mushrooms. In addition to the holes, there is currently no big stadium left for the orcs to play bloody bowl rugby.

You can play it however you want. If you want to go to the north to fight the Chaos Tribe, go ahead. Shipbuilding is fine. The elves will show the orcs what a unique navy is in the Middle Ages. Going south is even better. Anaheim's chain defense and the elves' high-altitude bombing are always welcome. Further south, it's time for the lizardmen to train. Hesiota welcomes you.

Perhaps, fruit trees can be grown indoors, such as citrus and persimmons? He can't say for sure now, because there is no benchmark or reference. After all, there was no magical magic in his previous world. In short, the big head still has to rely on Asheril. The output and planning of the two are not the same thing at all. Otherwise, how can it be called a vegetable basket plan?

When he was in Elsin Arwen, he got some giant horn goats and long-haired mountain cattle from the dwarves without the consent of the dwarves. He plans to raise these cold-resistant cattle and sheep in Nagarond, Hag Graves and Clarkarond, but this does not solve all problems. The number of these cattle and sheep is not enough to fill the stomachs of Druki and the behemoths.

So, after a round, the beggar's version of the frozen ship should be built. A small part is used to transport fresh fruits, which is like a concubine eating lychees. In addition to being offered to the dignitaries at a high price, it can also be used to reward soldiers. The other part, the big part, is used to transport frozen beef and seafood.

Most of the fruits still need to be canned and shipped to Naggaroth.

Although it is called an inspection, in fact, most of the time, Dacus stayed in the canning factory to peel fruits. Meetings and planning were also held in the canning factory. While peeling, they chatted, occasionally expanded their ideas, and had to show off.

There is a childhood dream of opening a small store when you grow up. Before you can sell it, you eat it all!

The process of making canned fruits in the canning factory is very primitive and simple.

He held a pineapple steadily in one hand and a sharp dagger in the other. The blade gently cut into the thorny skin of the pineapple, and the sharp blade made a slight rustling sound when it passed through the skin. His Dubai knife skills were extremely skillful, without any hesitation. As the blade rotated around the surface of the pineapple, the thick outer skin peeled off layer by layer, revealing the golden flesh inside.

After peeling the outer skin, he carefully dealt with the remaining eyes on the surface of the pineapple, and then cut the pineapple into several small pieces. The blade cut through the flesh, making a crisp snapping sound, and the juice immediately seeped out from the cut, revealing a natural sweet fragrance.

He stabbed the dagger into a piece of peeled pineapple, and without soaking it in salt water, he took a bite casually. The juice instantly filled his mouth, and the sweet taste was a little sour.

In his opinion, fruit is indeed a good comfort product. The moment he ate it, he felt relaxed and could enjoy a moment of tranquility.

Then there was nothing else. After showing off a piece, he picked up the pineapple and continued to peel it. At this moment, he seemed not to be the hand of the witch king. The burden of the world's safety was on his shoulders. He was just a fruit cutter who occasionally stole food.

Although the manufacturing process of canned fruit is very primitive, it is not a family or workshop-style process. There is a process. The person responsible for peeling the fruit only needs to pick out the defective ones, peel the good ones, or remove the cores of some fruits that need to be pitted.

The cut fruits will be transported away by workers, put into boiled and cooled water, add a certain amount of salt and lemon juice, and soak for five minutes. In the words of the workers, this step is to prevent the fruit from turning black. In fact, it is to prevent oxidation. As for sterilization and preservation, forget it, that little salt is not enough.

After soaking, put the fruit into a wide-mouth bottle and put it all in boiling water. After heating for one hour, plug it with a cork while it is hot, and then seal it with wax.

A can of canned fruit with great sales appearance appeared.

The production process is exactly the same as that of the Nagarond period, without the process of adding sucrose. It is not so luxurious to put sucrose in canned food now. From scratch, it is good to have canned fruit to eat in the icy and snowy environment, why do you need a bicycle.

During the process of making fruit, meetings and planning were also carried out. A few days later, a management measure that can be used in many places in the future appeared. (End of this chapter)
