i have a super island

Chapter 1051 Everything is ready
An overcrowded scene on a volcanic island.

Those workers who want to earn a few extra wages come here full of excitement, and then immediately start working in full swing.

Because of the requirements of the equation, the faster the sulfur mining, the better, so Long Fang divided these workers into three shifts and implemented a three-shift rotation system.

With three teams working day and night, they finally hollowed out all the stone mountains around the lake in two days.

The stone ditch used for drainage was also connected, and it took a whole day to drain the water in the lake.

Sulfur cannot be collected at this time, as a lot of silt has accumulated on the bottom of the lake, and excavation can only be carried out after the silt has dried up.

Fortunately, the temperature on the volcanic island is already high, and the water evaporates relatively quickly. In addition, after the rain a few days ago, the weather has been scorching sun, and it took another day to finally start digging.

It is not navigable from the volcanic island to Wan Guo, because the surrounding water conditions are very complicated, and ordinary ships cannot dock. Only Hathaway can use the current to lift the ship to the island, so the sulfur mines that have been mined cannot be transported to the island for the time being. Wan Guo can only wait for the ships of Wan Guo to come and take them back.

As the fourth day was about to pass, the workers on the volcanic island were all eagerly looking forward to the ships coming from the sea from the east.

Before the sun was about to fall into the sea level, facing the last ray of sunset, the Wanguo appeared on the sea surface.

The workers on the volcanic island cheered excitedly, and everyone was looking forward to the moment when the Wanguo docked.

The exciting moment didn't last long. The Wanguo was lifted up by the sea and pushed to the shore, where it was docked not far from the sulfur mine.

Long Fang led the workers to greet Equation and disembark from the Wanguo, Hathaway, who didn't like the excitement, stayed alone at the stern, quietly watching the workers on the island bring baskets of sulfur mines to the Wanguo. on the handling.

In about two hours, all the sulfur mines that had just been mined were moved to the Wanguo.

Before leaving, Fang Fang called Chang Ya aside and affirmed his work completion, "Sure enough, I am not disappointed, you have worked hard these few days."

"It's all thanks to the consul."

Chang Ya was very excited. He knew how difficult this opportunity was for him. After Equation chose him as the person in charge, he was so nervous that he was afraid that he would not be able to complete the task. It's superfluous.

Fang Fang smiled and said, "Next, I will consider setting up a sulfur mining factory on this island, and you will be the manager of the factory."

An uncontrollable overjoyed expression appeared on Changya's face. The factory manager represented power and status in Wanguo. Currently, Wanguo is the factory manager only Lu Fengmei, Asai Shizi, and Wei Lin. The smelters under their management Factories, textile mills and paper mills are the most basic facilities in the world. It is definitely an opportunity for him to become the director of a sulfur mining factory.

"Thank you, Lord Consul, I will definitely live up to your love!"

Excited, Chang Fang knelt down to thank Fang Fang.

Fang Fang helped him up, and said, "The reason why I asked you to be the director of this factory is because I have a good opinion of you, so let's work hard in the future."

When the Wanguo left the volcanic island, the sky had already darkened.

The Wanguo, carrying a ship of sulfur, returned to Wanguo. After arriving in Wanguo, they did not stop at the shore to rest because it was getting late. The workers on the shore, led by Pearl, had already been waiting for a long time. Unload all the sulfur transported above.

Frames of sulfur were carted into the city and stored in a temporary warehouse.

To say that the most excited person at this time must be Lu Fengmei. He has been thinking about these materials for a long time, and now that the sulfur has arrived, the gunpowder can be manufactured immediately.

Outside the warehouse, many people came, and Lu Fengmei was the most active one. The expression on her face changed with the sulfur being moved into the warehouse. She couldn't help but said to the equation next to her: "I've made it up, now I have to get a basket back."

"Get it home?" The equation means, will it be too dangerous.

"Hey, there's nothing to worry about. I'm a chemistry teacher." Lu Fengmei said confidently.

Lu Fengmei wanted to get a basket of sulfur back to study whatever she said, and the equation had nothing to do with him, so he had to agree.

After Lu Fengmei left, Wei Lin came to Fang Fang and seemed to have something to say.

The matter of sulfur put Fang in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Xiaolin, what's wrong with you?"

Unlike those happy people, Wei Lin was full of worry, "Brother Fang, I don't think it's suitable to store so much sulfur in the city. In fact, including the thenardite brought back, it's actually not suitable to be stored in the city. Even if No matter how careful you are, if there is any mistake in these things, it will bring immeasurable consequences."

Seemingly worried that Fang Fang would be unhappy, Wei Lin added, "Brother Fang, I'm just stating my point of view, if it's not good..."

Fang Fang stopped Wei Lin, looked at her seriously, and encouraged: "No, you are very good. These are indeed things I didn't consider before." After encouraging Wei Lin, he asked again: "Xiao Lin , so according to your suggestion, how should these materials for making gunpowder be stored now?"

"I think we can choose two more places on the island and build two warehouses for storing saltpeter and sulfur respectively. These two places must be relatively dry to prevent the materials from becoming damp after being stored for a long time, and usually Special personnel can be sent to guard to prevent materials from falling into the hands of people with ulterior motives."

"Okay, what you mentioned is very good. You really are the most capable assistant by my side!" Fang Fang did not hesitate to praise Wei Lin at all.

The little girl's cheeks flushed slightly after being praised, and she was a little embarrassed, but it could be seen that it was very useful.

Fang Fang said: "The warehouse you mentioned can start preparations tomorrow. Just go to Qingman to declare how much money you need. In addition, you can recruit workers yourself."

Wei Lin was affirmed, nodded happily and said, "Okay, I'll get ready now."

After being busy until midnight, Fang Fang had time to return home to rest.

While lying on the bed, Li Qingman kneaded the shoulders for Fang Fang, and said with concern, "I have worked hard on the gunpowder these days, and now the preparations are over, and you can relax."

Fang Fang turned around, lay down on the bed, and said, "It's still too early to relax, I hope Lao Lu can make gunpowder quickly."

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Li Qingman asked.

When Fang Fang said that he was about to go after the Golden Fleet, Li Qingman didn't object after hearing it. He just told Fang Fang, "Before you leave Wan Guo, remember to go to Zhixi's side to accompany her more."

Fang Fang smirked and said, "Don't dare to disobey my wife's orders."
