Warehouse Rising, Migration in Progress!
As is widely known.
The reason why spaceships are not called airplanes is mainly because the profound cultural connotations of China were taken into account when choosing the name.
Large ships drift on the sea, and spaceships drift in the Milky Way. In addition, the navy has a unique feature in its control modes.
A ship is large and has many people. Each person or even each group of people is only responsible for one module. Only by working together can they ensure combat effectiveness. This is more like a scene from a science fiction work, so it is natural to call it a ship.
However, the fact that an ordinary shipyard could build this kind of thing still seemed outrageous to Su Mo!
"Modular technology is amazing. It's too difficult to analyze such technology before you have access to the basic technological chain!"
After spending 500 Disaster Points to learn the design blueprint of the Creating Heaven Number One, a memory containing various needs of the shipyard and the scale of construction was transmitted to me.
The construction process, which was as straightforward as an instruction manual, also dispelled Su Mo's "desire" to explore this technology once again.
The shelter currently has three modular technological items, but without the guidance of introductory books, the principles behind these technologies are completely incomprehensible, much like ancient people seeing an airplane.
However, the good news is that, unlike furnaces, shipyards do not require any expensive rare earth materials in their basic materials.
The materials required are mostly ordinary resources that can be found in everyday life, which are used to construct the framework of the shipyard.
In addition, it also illustrates that the most important aspect of the shipyard is the various strange technological modules required.
Most importantly, even if a shipyard has enough materials, it cannot build a ship if it cannot assemble the Power Module, the Import Module, and the Automatic Construction Module.
"Among these three modules, I have a matching card from the Zeta Treasure Chest - the Material Replacement Card."
"It can replace a module of quality no higher than excellent."
"Then, as long as I can gather the remaining two modules, the shipyard can begin construction!"
With the shipyard's construction needs clear, Su Mo pondered for a moment, then closed the manufacturing page and went directly to the market to check if anyone had listed any of the modules for sale.
Compared to the generation of Ma Gu, the number of humans who came from the main world Earth this time is still around four billion.
With such a large population, the probability of producing good products is naturally not small.
Very easily, Su Mo found two types of Shipyard Module on the market.
Import Module and Material Input Module.
"Now we only need one more module. As long as we can find the power source or an automated assembly system, we can get the shipyard ready immediately."
After searching repeatedly and finding no other modules, Su Mo suppressed his excitement and temporarily closed the Game Panel.
The module is small in size, but surprisingly heavy.
Furthermore, this item cannot use the latest tax cut rules for goods in the trading panel. To list it on the Trading Market, one must first pay the high shipping fees before it can be put on the market.
Currently, the two modules listed above, such as the Import Module, are being sold for a shipping fee of 140 points.
As for the Material Input Module, it is even more expensive. Next to the handling fee, the seller and the buyer each bear half, which also requires 180 points.
Including the items traded, you'll need at least 250 points to get the item.
"Once the materials are acquired, I'll go directly to the World Channel to purchase them, and open a new market to buy them. I'll pay for the entire shipping fee."
"Maybe we can find someone who has something but can't afford the shipping fee!"
Material prices have already begun an unstoppable collapse this morning.
Just like stock trading, if there were a price trend chart for material prices, you could probably see this curve, which is already plunging down like a waterfall, with no sign of stopping.
In such a price collapse, retail investors with some but not much stock will panic and want to quickly trade it off, hoping to get rid of their "trouble" and exchange it for food to go to the New Continent.
That idea is correct, but the problem is that no dealer can afford to buy it!
Apart from Su Mo and the Candlelight Shelter who planted hundreds of thousands of catties this time, everyone else barely managed to make enough food for half a year, so there was no extra grain to trade.
Even large shelters are trying to trade materials for food in this situation, causing prices to collapse even further.
Therefore, as long as prices continue to fall, they can act as "capital giants" in the market.
Su Mo could then enter without restraint, acquiring enough materials at once to build warships and shipyards, or even stockpile them to take to the New Continent.
"Don't rush this. The Candlelight Shelter is bringing over a lot of supplies today, so we must build the supply warehouse before they arrive!"
We already have a mature design, and there's still some left over after adding the core components.
After placing two cores near the Underground Shelter to generate a two-story underground building, Su Mo took out 24 fruits and upgraded its area to 220 square meters.
Using the connectivity function of the Lv2 shelter, the warehouse, which was originally made of wood, was transformed into a heavy stone warehouse in just a few breaths.
After importing the design blueprints, you can easily build a super warehouse with terrifying storage capacity by using the reconstruction feature given at level 3.
Of course, the door to the warehouse doesn't need to be closed yet. Once all the grain has been stored, the door can be removed and connected to the Underground Shelter.
Having figured out what needed to be done, Su Mo didn't waste any time. After importing the design drawings and the rumbling sound of reconstruction began, it was only 9:30 a. m.
The reconstruction, which involved many intricate details such as slotting, took almost half an hour before the vibrations gradually subsided.
Given the risk of marine intrusion, the shelter needs to be completely sealed off to prevent any water from entering.
Therefore, ventilation windows in the previous Underground Shelter and ventilation areas in the newly built warehouses also need to be redesigned and planned.
Air must be able to circulate in, but water must not.
So, upon entering the new warehouse, it wasn't pitch black inside.
There is a hole about half a meter in size in the ceiling of the warehouse, through which sunlight from the wasteland can shine.
On the walls of the warehouse are rows of recessed shelves, which is the most ingenious design of the frozen grain silo.
Below the shelf, there are several small points for ventilation. Also, because air sinks, moisture from items placed on it can be carried downwards.
On the warehouse floor, there are tiny water channels to ensure that the secreted water can quickly flow into the water tank on the next floor, preventing the air on the first floor from becoming damp.
Holding a flashlight, I went down to the second floor.
This place has become a natural storage site for vegetables and wheat.
The water in the upper tank flows down the ground to the central water storage tank on the second floor.
As long as the Lion Man's Wind is set properly, the air will quickly carry away the temperature in the water tank, achieving a natural cooling effect.
This allows the vegetables and wheat on the second floor to be preserved in cold storage, thus delaying their spoilage to the greatest extent possible.
This design, which can be described as "ingenious," is the reason why it provides Survival Points of significantly higher than that of Natural Granary, even within the upgrade range that the system can offer.
"Good, good. Next, we just need to follow the plan and figure out how to upgrade and revert the Mermaid's Water to its ancestral form, and that's it!"
Su Mo was naturally very satisfied with his design.
With this warehouse design, the food inside wouldn't spoil even after two or three years, let alone half a year.
Nodding, while Su Mo was still examining the details, the ground began to tremble slightly, clearly indicating that "someone" had arrived.
With delight, Su Mo strode out of the warehouse and looked into the distance.
Sure enough, at the edge of the horizon, the vanguard of the Candlelight Shelter, used for migration, arrived!
Leading the charge was none other than King Kong, the excavator that shone brightly in this Welfare Disaster.
Even with his already somewhat terrifying eyesight, Su Mo couldn't help but exclaim "Good heavens!" after just one glance.
There were at least ten people sitting in the bucket of the King Kong, lying on their stomachs and shouting excitedly.
Even though no one knows where he got the cloth, Qi Qin, standing among these people, stood up and held up a piece of cloth with a huge golden "Su Character on it, letting it blow backward in the wind.
Judging from their expressions, it seemed that hanging this "Su" flag was a symbol of invincibility in the wasteland! Looking behind King Kong, there was something else hanging there as well: a thick rope made of some unknown material was pulling two homemade carts.
Each car carried seven people.
Based on this calculation, the number of people transported by King Kong alone reached an astonishing 25.
Su Mo can see these people, but these people cannot see Su Mo.
However, the terrain near the Underground Shelter was still too familiar. Everyone had carefully examined it in the two live streams, and had also fantasized about coming to this place countless times in their dreams.
Even before they had actually driven all the way here, the excited cheers still carried through the air.
Whether they are men, women, or children, it seems that in their minds, once they come to this place, it is absolutely safe.
As for Candlelight Village, where they had stayed for almost a month, it was almost instantly forgotten by everyone.
Candlelight Village, what's that?
Is there a fragrance from the low-lying area?
Look at the grass on the ground. Although it's not as thick as the grass on the Hope Plain, it still has a kind of spiritual energy about it! Following the excavator is the harvester, and similarly, there are more than a dozen people behind the harvester.
In total, these two waves have brought over all the refugees who are physically weak.
As for the remaining people, one more round trip is all it takes, and everyone should be able to arrive today.
As the convoy drew closer, Su Mo, standing in front of the shelter, was spotted by everyone.
The refugees, who had been cheering, immediately fell silent, their eyes filled with awe and respect.
After the car came to a stop, all the refugees spontaneously lined up in a 3x3 grid.
"Big Brother Su, this group consists of 41 people. The rest of the team is currently 62 kilometers away from us, but they will all be here soon!"
The agile Chen Shen stepped off the harvester and quickly greeted them with a warm smile.
On the road from Candlelight Shelter to the Underground Shelter, apart from a few Mutated Creature, there are basically no other living beings to be seen.
Since Su Mo had left Zhong Qingshu a gun before leaving, safety was not an issue.
After giving a brief report on the migration, Chen Shen chuckled, noticing the admiration in Su Mo's eyes. He then cleverly leaned forward and said, "Moreover, the villagers behind us sent me a message that they have a surprise for you today!"
"Surprise?"
"Yes, Big Brother Su, today's migration has allowed us to catch a big fish!"
