Lord of Industrialization

The whole body of the whale is a treasure, especially the fat, which can be eaten and used for lighting. The meat contains various nutrients including vitamin C, which is very suitable for eating in the season without vegetables and fruits.

He Li and her friends wanted to pickle some whale meat in the wooden barrels provided by the cargo ship, but Frederick immediately stopped them.

He had eaten the hometown dishes brought by Walqiulei. The pickled fish smelled like stinky tofu, tasted like mud, and tasted like Laoshan Baihua Shecao water. They didn't eat it themselves, and finally seemed to send it to the police station for interrogation.

Frederick couldn't stand eating this stuff for a whole winter, so he taught them to use another method to preserve whale meat.

"Just this temperature." He pointed to the thermometer in the pot and said, "65 degrees Wechsler, not higher than 70, heat for half an hour."

Whales have a lot of fat, and Frederick taught them to make oil-sealed whale meat using the method of making oil-sealed duck legs.

First, heat the whale oil to high temperature to sterilize it. After it cools down, put the cut whale meat in, and keep the temperature for half an hour to kill most of the heat-sensitive bacteria. This temperature can also prevent the vitamins from being decomposed.

While operating, Frederick said to Heli: "This can kill most bacteria, but some bacterial spores, you can think of them as seeds of bacteria, they are still alive."

"So it needs to be heated every three days to allow the spores to grow and become heat-intolerant, and then killed before new spores are produced, a total of three times."

"Although it is a bit troublesome, it can keep the nutrients in the meat from being destroyed by high temperatures."

Heli immediately asked: "Are the nutrients you are talking about the vitamins mentioned in "Food and Health"? "

Frederick scratched his head and said: "I haven't read that book, but it should be from the name."

Heli said: "That book was published by your Wesson Science Society. It concluded through feeding experiments on pigs and monkeys and a large number of hospital cases that there are several major types of trace substances in food that sustain life. People will get corresponding diseases if they lack them."

"The book says that there is a vitamin No. 3 in vegetables and fruits. If the body lacks this, teeth will fall out, and they will be destroyed when the temperature is high."

Frederick thought about it and it should be the project hosted by Psyche.

There was no time for multiple sterilizations. After the oil-soaked whale meat was put into the barrel, Frederick used necromancy to sterilize it.

A scream came from not far away. A fox attracted by the smell of whale blood was hit on the head by a stone and died instantly.

Frederick turned his head and saw that Lu Li, who was in charge of driving a while ago, had killed another fox with a stone. He happily went over to drag it back.

The fox meat here is relatively delicate. It is stewed with seaweed and has a mellow taste. It is very warm to eat.

After the fox skin is peeled off, it can only be dried directly and thrown on the carriage. It can be used as a door curtain after the camp is settled.

On the other side, Jin Li led people to clean up the stone house built by the previous people. Except for the windows outside the door, almost all of them were sealed, leaving only the chimney on the top.

They also pulled wood from the nearby mountains, first lit a big fire in the stone house, drove out all the insects inside, and then hung strips of whale meat on the roof.

After the meat was hung, wood was lit in the stone house, and moss and seaweed were added. The thick smoke continued for two days, and finally the door and chimney were blocked. They would come back to get it after a while.

The temperature here is now a few degrees at the lowest and more than ten degrees at the highest. After this treatment, the whale meat can be preserved for a long time, and there is no need to worry about wild animals eating it.

The edible internal organs of the whale have been eaten almost in the past few days, and the inedible ones are thrown far away, attracting many wolves and foxes to grab food. Finally, a large group of green slimes cleaned up the residue on the ground.

Frederick used the mud swamp technique at the location of the narwhal bones, and the entire skeleton sank into the ground. Otherwise, hungry animals in winter would gnaw it until only bone residues were left, and finally it would be eaten by the green slimes that secrete strong acid.

In the howling north wind, the convoy set out on the road to the grouse forest.

Originally, everyone took a car, but now they have to walk to transport the extra oil-sealed whale meat.

The group of people have all practiced martial arts since childhood and have strong physical fitness. Jin Li controls the walking distance every day, so this distance is nothing.

Frederick kept looking around along the way, and seemed to be curious about everything.

The twelve main Aurora warriors in this team have their own division of labor. Heli and another pioneer went forward to explore the way, two shield guards protected the flank on the side of the mountain, two mages and two archers with crossbows were scattered in the caravan, and the remaining four guards protected them.

There are no full-time medical personnel in the team. Everyone can treat, which is their compulsory course.

In addition to their usual weapons, each of them prepared a double-barreled shotgun and two revolvers. The shotguns are usually placed on the roof and can be easily obtained.

Frederick also noticed that there were several spears on each car. They were usually separated and could be quickly connected to more than three meters long through the screw mouth, and even more than ten meters long when necessary.

Lu Li was walking with Frederick carrying a heavy crossbow. Seeing that he was very concerned about the spear, she explained: "There will be swamps here. If someone falls into it, we can extend the wooden pole to pull them back."

Frederick nodded. That's it.

He asked: "Are there many swamps on the road?"

Lu Li shook her head and said: "I haven't been here, so I'm not sure."

"Look at the map. We have a long way to go by the water. There must be swamps by the water."

Frederick looked around the terrain. The mountains on both sides of this road are relatively flat, and there are no signs of landslides and mudslides. It is not a problem for the railway to pass through here.

It is more troublesome to have a mountain on one side and water on the other. If there is too much melted snow, the roadbed may be washed away.

He had learned a lot about railway site selection before coming here. He would know the situation after going there once.

Moreover, the road is not wide at present and can only accommodate one car. It will have to be widened later.

Lu Li asked him curiously: "If there is an iron mine in the Grouse Forest, how long will it take to build the tribe?"

Frederick thought for a while and said: "It will take several years."

"The first year's work is to build a port where we disembark. A crane is needed to unload tools and machines from the ship."

"There are many stone mountains and forests around. The materials for the roadbed and sleepers are not a problem. A quarry, a crushing plant and a sleeper processing plant are needed."

"We also need to build a pine tar plant to refine pine tar. Sleepers treated with pine tar will not be eaten by insects or moldy. They can be used for more than ten years, but they will smell very bad."

"Next, lay the railway to the edge of the iron mine, transport the machines over, build the iron mine and living area there, and then we can start mining ore."

"Preliminary estimates show that if everything goes well, it will take about five years. If there are unexpected difficulties, it will take ten years."
