After all, as a person who has lived for tens of thousands of years, language is not too easy for the doctor.
Su Xing felt that the knowledge possessed by the doctor in the Tower of Babel might not be inferior to Kal'tsit. You know, the previous doctor was the number one researcher on oripathy and natural disasters, and he also had degrees in biology and neuroengineering.
If the doctor had not been seriously injured and had to sleep in the sarcophagus to heal his wounds, he might have been able to create an antidote for the oripathy if he had been given some time.
But now it is impossible. Su Xing has no memory of the doctor at all. Although some memories still remain in his mind, these memories are too faint.
Su Xing guessed that maybe he needed to encounter something profound to recall the memories in his mind. Now, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember them.
Since he couldn't remember, Su Xing didn't bother to care. It didn't matter to him whether he had the doctor's memory or not. Now all he was thinking about was to speed up the industrialization of Chernobyl and recruit more workers. The villagers in the snowfield were the ones he was going to win over.
These people faced extreme environments and harsh weather, as well as exploitation by the patrols and heavy taxes from the nobles. It could be said that they were all people who could be won over to his side.
As for whether the villagers in the snowfield would join? It was so funny. They were all dying. Would they refuse a force that could pay them wages and provide them with three meals a day?
Not to mention that Su Xing and others drove a mobile city there, even if they made it clear that they wanted to overthrow Ursus, these villagers would be ecstatic to join them.
Su Xing called Lev, told him what to do next, and then asked him to send people to the snowfield to gather workers.
After making all the arrangements, Su Xing prepared to mass-produce steam engines. Once the steam engines became popular in Chernobyl, the speed of industrialization could be accelerated.
Although there are many machines in Chernobyl at present, the operation of any equipment requires Originium, and workers also have to worry about contracting mineral diseases when working, so the popularization of steam engines is necessary.
However, Su Xing also knew that ordinary equipment could be replaced by steam engines, but high-tech equipment could not.
Su Xing had no good solution for this. This was the limitation of the steam engine. It was no problem to replace basic equipment, but it was impossible to replace high-precision equipment.
But it is enough for Su Xing. After all, basic equipment is the most used by ordinary people and has the highest infection rate.
There are only a handful of people who can use high-tech equipment. As long as you take good precautions, you can prevent infection with mineral disease.
In the following period of time, Su Xing was mass-producing steam engines while also inspecting the basic equipment inside Chernobog. He needed to review which equipment had been replaced by steam engines.
After investigation, Su Xing identified the equipment that could be replaced by steam engines. Although the production efficiency might be lower after the steam engines replaced them, the workers would not have to worry about contracting mineral sickness.
At the same time, the intelligence personnel sent by Lev brought back good news. They found a coal mine deep in the snowfield. After exploration, they found that the coal production there was very large.
Su Xing was very happy when he heard this. Although he knew that there was coal in Terra, he didn't expect to find it so quickly.
As long as there is coal, the energy needed for the steam engine will not be a problem.
Although he knew that not many people used coal in Terra because of the existence of Originium, Su Xing did not expect to find coal so quickly. It seemed that he was lucky.
Su Xing plans to go and inspect it in person, as this coal is related to his future plans.
The news that Su Xing was about to leave Chernobog soon reached Hellagur. After learning about it, Hellagur was ready to go with him. After all, Su Xing's position was still very important. He was the pillar of the People's Liberation Army. If something happened along the way, Hellagur couldn't even imagine what would happen.
However, Su Xing refused. Chernobog still needed Hellagur to guard it, and Tallulah also needed attention, so Hellagur could not leave.
Helag looked at Su Xing and said, "Don't you know how important you are? And your physical fitness is really too poor. What if you catch a cold in this icy and snowy place?"
Su Xing said, "Don't worry, I'm well prepared. In addition to the troops that must be brought, W will also go with me. You don't have to worry about safety."
After seeing Su Xing's determined expression, Helag did not insist. He also knew W. His strength was not bad, but he was willing to swear.
After persuading Hellagur, Su Xing left Chernobyl under the escort of a convoy and headed deep into the snowfield.
For his own safety, Su Xing took several hundred soldiers with him when he left Chernobyl. These people were the best in the People's Liberation Army. Many of them had strong Originium skills and were not inferior even to the warlocks in the army.
Originally, Su Xing didn't want to bring so many people with him, but when these people learned that Su Xing was leaving, they followed him directly. After all, Marshal Su's safety was the most important thing in their eyes.
Because of the increase in the number of people, Su Xing could only increase the number of convoys.
Fortunately, there are trucks, otherwise it would be difficult to transport hundreds of people.
That's right, Su Xing researched the truck. After all, Terra also had cars, but no one had ever heard of trucks. After all, Terra's large-scale operations all had transport ships, and because of the mobile plots and mobile cities, things like trucks had not been invented.
Chapter 43 Village
In this regard, Su Xing could only invent the truck himself. After all, trucks used for transportation are very versatile.
However, because rubber is relatively scarce, synthetic rubber is used to make truck tires, and the amount of natural rubber is still too small.
Su Xing had no choice but to accept this. The transportation cost in the world of Terra was extremely expensive. After all, there were all kinds of things on the road. People without financial resources would not dare to open a logistics company.
In addition, Ursus is located in the north and rubber cannot be grown here at all, so the price of rubber here is very expensive.
Although synthetic rubber is not as good as natural rubber, it is very cheap and you can make a lot of synthetic rubber by just adding some natural rubber.
This time, Su Xing drove three trucks and several off-road vehicles, and the convoy left Chernobyl and headed for the snowfield.
Looking at the surrounding scenery, Su Xing observed with great curiosity.
This was his first time leaving Chernobyl, and Su Xing was still very interested in the outside world.
Because the place we are heading to is a snowy field, the temperature outside is still very low.
Su Xing also saw the scenery of the snowfield for the first time. There were very few plants here, and the snow on the ground was at least five or six centimeters deep. This was because of the sun. If it was snowing, the convoy would have difficulty moving forward.
Even in the car, Su Xing could feel the biting cold. This temperature was really enough to freeze people to death.
Su Xing rubbed his hands. This damn weather was really cold. Although he had been exercising for more than a year, his physical fitness had not improved much. After all, he was an ordinary person, and it was too difficult to improve his physical fitness through exercise.
Moreover, Su Xing knew that no matter how much he trained, he could never be as good as the Terrans. After all, even Filin, who had relatively weaker physical fitness among Terrans, could beat more than a dozen of him. The difference between people here was really greater than the difference between people and Originium worms.
Su Xing plans to research genetic medicine after returning this time. Not to mention how powerful it will be, but it must at least reach the level of Skadi, otherwise it will be easy for something to go wrong in Terra, which is full of dangers.
W looked at Su Xing shivering from the cold and showed a mocking look on his face: "I didn't expect that evil spirits would be afraid of the cold?"
"After all, I am also a human being. How can I not be afraid of the cold?"
W curled his lips when he heard this, but didn't say anything. After more than a month of getting along, W also got to know Su Xing again.
Compared to the cold-blooded evil spirit during the Kazdel Civil War, the amnesiac evil spirit now has a lot of humanity.
It's ironic that the evil spirits in the past were cold-blooded and heartless, as if everything in the world was just a game.
Now that the evil spirits have taken over Chernobyl, they have helped the infected people and workers find jobs. The fungi they invented have even eliminated all the people who starved to death in Chernobyl, and they have also written books like the Communist Manifesto.
W doesn’t even know which evil spirit is the original him?
But if she were to choose, the current one would be better.
Su Xing didn't know what W was thinking. As the vehicle moved forward, the snow ahead became deeper and the temperature became colder than outside the mobile city.
After the vehicle had been driving for a while, Su Xing and others saw a village ahead.
Su Xing made a gesture, asking the soldiers to park the truck in a hidden place, and then got off the truck with W and a dozen other soldiers, preparing to collect some information here.
After getting off the car, Su Xing and others put on a white robe. After all, if the villagers saw their equipment, they might cause misunderstanding.
Su Xing had made a lot of preparations for this trip to the snowfield. First of all, everyone had a rifle, and they carried a lot of bullets. After all, the Terra people had strong enough physical fitness, and each of them could carry more than 100 kilograms of things without breathing.
A bulletproof vest is also a must, and there are five or six grenades on the waist.
In addition to these, he also wore a military coat as a cover to conceal his equipment. The rifle was carried on his back so that he could take it out and fight at the first moment when encountering danger.
The white robe on his body is the best camouflage color in the snowy plains, making it less easy to be discovered.
Su Xing didn't bring anything. What was the big deal for a leader like him to bring all that? He just wore a military coat and a white robe, ear protection on his ears, and a mask on his face. After all, the temperature here was too low, and if he wasn't fully armed, he might catch a cold.
Su Xing asked the other soldiers to wait here, and then headed towards the village with W and others.
Su Xing and his group quickly attracted the attention of the villagers. After seeing Su Xing and his group, many people were very worried. After all, the patrol team had just come a few days ago, and they were worried that it was the patrol team that came again this time.
However, as Su Xing and others approached, the villagers' nervous hearts relaxed a little. After all, Su Xing and others were not dressed like patrol officers, and their temperaments were different from those of patrol officers.
After seeing this, the old village chief knew that this group of people was probably not a patrol team, but a team passing by here from other places. As for whether it was a caravan or a logistics team, he was not sure?
But what is certain is that these people will not do anything to them.
It would be even better if it was a caravan, maybe I could exchange some food from them.
The village had a lot of food seized by the patrol team, and there were also taxes to pay to the nobles. Without enough food, the villagers might not survive the winter.
Su Xing came to the old village chief and asked, "Old man, how far is it from here to Tieshi Village?"
When the villagers gathered, Su Xing used his ability to observe and found that these villagers were all ordinary people. At least there were no villagers like the patrol team or those that Tallulah met. The people in this village could still be approached.
The old village chief said, "If we drive now, it will take about a day or so. It's quite far to walk, so it may take more than ten days or even a month."
Su Xing was not surprised. After all, there were too many uncertainties when walking. The weather alone was troublesome enough, and it was very likely that he would encounter monsters on the road, or he might encounter patrol teams or bandits.
Don’t think that there are no bandits in the snowfield. There are many villagers who can’t survive and many patrol teams pretending to be bandits.
Next, Su Xing discussed the distance to Tieshi Village with the old village chief, and asked the soldiers around him to draw a map based on what the old village chief said.
The old village chief also learned from Su Xing his identity, a traveling merchant who conducted some transactions in the snowfield.
Of course, this was all made up by Su Xing, but an identity was necessary when traveling in the snowfield, and with the supplies he carried, it was indeed not a problem for him to pretend to be a traveling merchant.
"So, Mr. Su, do you have any food?"
Su Xing nodded: "There are still quite a few."
The old village chief asked: "Can we trade?"
The villagers behind him also looked at Su Xing with eager expressions. Food was life-saving to them.
Chapter 44 Arrival at Tieshi Village
Su Xing said: "Sure, anyway, this time we came to the village to exchange some supplies."
After hearing this, the old village chief asked hurriedly: "So what are you going to exchange?"
Su Xing thought for a moment and said, "Let's eat meat."
The old village chief was a little disappointed. After all, they didn't have much meat stored, and a lot of it had been snatched away by the patrol team.
But even so, the old village chief was ready to exchange. After all, the meat they had stored could not sustain them through the winter. It would be great if they could exchange some filling food from Su Xing.
Su Xing asked the soldiers to bring the mushrooms. Although he had no original intention of trading, he learned from the communication with the old village chief that most of their food had been taken away by the patrol team, and the food they stored now was not enough to survive the winter.
They had originally planned to risk hunting in the forest, but Su Xing's arrival gave them another option.
After waiting for a while, the soldiers came over with mushrooms. Because they didn't know how much meat there was in the village, they brought a lot of mushrooms.
It took three trips back and forth to transport the mushrooms, weighing nearly three to four thousand kilograms.
Su Xing could see a lot of desire in the eyes of these villagers, and some of them even had greed in their eyes.
However, these people did not do anything wrong, and it seems that they can control their greed.
The old village chief asked, "What is the standard for exchanging these foods?"
Su Xing said: "One pound of meat and three pounds of mushrooms."
The old village chief was stunned when he heard this. He thought the price was a bit too good. You know, vegetables in the snowfield are more expensive than meat. He had never even heard of such cheap mushrooms.
Su Xing saw the old village chief's disbelief and said, "This mushroom is a newly developed variety. It has a high yield, but it has no nutritional value and the taste is not good. But it can fill your stomach."
The old village chief was still skeptical, but Su Xing directly opened the package, handed the mushrooms to the old village chief, and asked him to take a bite to try.
The old village chief put the dried mushroom into his mouth and tried to take a bite.
He wasn't worried about poison or anything. Why would anyone want to harm such a poor village like theirs?
The taste of dried mushrooms is not that good, but they can fill your stomach after chewing and swallowing.
Su Xing continued: "In addition to eating it dry, you can also soak it in water and eat it raw or stir-fry it, or use it to make soup."
After the old village chief confirmed that there was no problem, he agreed to the exchange. After all, although the mushrooms didn't taste very good, they were enough to fill their stomachs. When the other villagers saw the old village chief confirmed, they also went back to their homes and took out the hidden meat.
Although mushrooms may not taste as good as meat, they can satisfy their hunger. Although meat tastes good, it cannot keep them going through the winter. Rather than taste, they want enough food.
There are less than a hundred people in this village, about eighty or ninety, and the stored meat is only about five or six hundred kilograms. It should have been more, but most of the meat was snatched away by the patrol team, and these were hidden by them secretly.
Su Xing looked at the meat. Although five or six hundred kilograms sounded like a lot, it was still too little for the people in this village.
