The slightly weird commander's ship girl tour

I didn’t expect that there was a girl who came to help him clean up every day.

Now placed next to the bed, he seemed a little sloppy.

"Okay, I understand." He paused and waved his hand.

Hermione chuckled, said hello to the other girls, and left the office.

Enterprise and Tiancheng exchanged a glance, but said nothing. They walked over, took the mail, looked at it, and said, "It's from the commander next door."

"Uh, he can't wait again?"

Huang Chen came back to his senses and felt a little confused after hearing this. Did the commander know me? Why was he so anxious to come and visit me?

Or a declaration of war?

Enterprise shrugged and handed the mail over.

Huang Chen frowned and opened the envelope. But instead of relaxing his brows, they became even tighter, with a hint of doubt and confusion.

Tiancheng asked doubtfully, "Master, is there a problem?"

"He's moved away." Huang Chen carefully read the letter in his hand up and down, then handed it to Qiye, "Please help me check if I read it right. Did he say he was leaving?"

Enterprise took the letter and spread it on the table. New Jersey came forward curiously, their heads touching.

Nagato was sitting a little far away, and he raised his head from his chair to look around, but he couldn't see clearly, and it looked like he wanted to stand up.

However, he glanced to the side at Tiancheng and sat back down.

"Really? They've already moved away." New Jersey said in surprise after looking at the letter.

"Yeah, I just feel puzzled, is it my fault?" Huang Chen said, touching his chin.

Enterprise shook her head. "He didn't say anything. He just said that a new commander would be taking over soon. Next time I go to Ningyang, I'll ask the Kanmusu headquarters."

"Okay." Huang Chen thought about it, but couldn't figure it out, so he just ignored it.

By the way, what were you saying just now?

correct.

"Declare war on other port areas!" Huang Chen clapped his hands and suddenly realized.

"Commander?" Enterprise sat up suddenly, completely stunned.

New Jersey, however, looked fearless and excitedly said, "Commander, have you taken a fancy to that port area? Do you need the most powerful New Jersey to help you take it down?"

"If the Lord is really interested in other port areas, I suggest that he should plan before taking action and take it step by step. Starting a war from the beginning will only put him at a disadvantage." Tiancheng thought for a moment and said seriously.

Having said that, looking at the girl's resolute expression, it seems that if Huang Chen said to start a war directly, she would not hesitate to deploy her ship equipment and drive the artillery.

Nagato looked around, his long fox ears standing straight up, and said seriously, "I, I completely agree with the commander's idea."

"Wait a minute." Huang Chen immediately interrupted the girls' reverie, "Stop for a moment. That was just a slip of the tongue. It wasn't a real declaration of war on the port area."

New Jersey shook his head and sat back in his chair, "I see."

Amagi didn't say anything, but seemed a little regretful. Nagato sat obediently on the chair without any expression.

Enterprise breathed a sigh of relief. "I was wondering why the Commander suddenly thought of declaring war. It's really a bit too sudden."

"Except for you, no one else seems to feel it's so sudden." Huang Chen shook his head. "I'm talking about the work in the port area. The workload is not enough right now..."

As he spoke, he casually flipped through the documents in his hand, and suddenly his eyes stopped at the cafeteria warehouse statistical report.

"By the way, what do you think about opening a few farms in the port area?"

He raised his head with excitement in his eyes.

"Can it be called grassroots!?"

Chapter 836: Port Area Agricultural Plan

"What? What farmland?" Enterprise was stunned, not quite understanding what the commander meant.

She exchanged a glance with the other girls and realized that everyone was shaking their heads in confusion, not knowing what the commander wanted to say.

Nagato blinked and guessed, "Commander, are you talking about growing your own vegetables like Kamikaze and the others used to do?"

When they were at the shrine, Kamikaze and the others had opened up several plots of land in the open space outside the square to grow some seasonal vegetables.

At this moment, when she heard the commander mention farmland, she reacted immediately.

"Right, that is it."

Huang Chen nodded, feeling that his idea was very interesting. He immediately put the document in his hand aside and started planning while counting on his fingers.

"If we develop farmland, it will not only solve the problem of lack of jobs in the port area, but also solve the problem of fresh vegetables in the cafeteria."

"There's actually quite a bit of vacant land in the port area right now. There's still a lot of undeveloped land near the mountains. We don't need to grow staple foods, just some seasonal vegetables."

He gave a long and rambling explanation.

The girls probably understood what the commander meant.

Enterprise nodded slightly, remembering the issue he had discussed with the commander in Ningyang before. At that time, the commander lamented that it was really troublesome for the cargo ship to run back and forth.

However, there has been no better solution to the problem of difficulty in storing fresh ingredients.

The current method of developing farmland seems to be a win-win solution. It not only solves the problem of insufficient workload in the port area, but also solves the problem of supply of fresh vegetables.

"I feel pretty good about it, what do you guys think?"

Huang Chen planned for a long time, gradually calmed down, and asked the girls for their opinions.

Tiancheng thought for a moment and said slowly, "Your Majesty's idea is very good. Perhaps we can carefully plan the land use and vegetable types, since no one has such experience."

Nagato's ears twitched, and he couldn't help but interrupt, "Kamikaze has experience. We used to grow many different vegetables when we were at the shrine."

Her golden eyes sparkled, as if she was recalling some of her past life in the shrine.

At that time…there were fresh vegetables every day, the same vegetables every day, the same fish stew, and they rarely fried anything because there was not much oil in the shrine.

I have some snacks every day, but they are all bought in the city at the foot of the mountain, a few yuan per pound, and then I put them in the cupboard, and let the sea breeze bring some after dinner every day...

Nagato reminisced for a moment, his expression gradually darkening, the twinkle in his eyes fading.

Were life so hard in the past?

Tiancheng didn't notice her change of expression. He was still thinking about the previous question and continued, "Small-scale planting is different from large-scale planting. I think what the master wants is definitely not to add another tourist attraction to the port area, right?"

"If you want a stable harvest, then many issues must be considered, seeds, fertilizers, irrigation and so on, all of which need to be discussed."

New Jersey listened curiously for a while, but then a barrage of strange words like seeds, fertilizers, etc. came over her, making her dizzy.

He hurriedly shook his head, returned to his desk, and said, "Forget it. I feel like I'm still not very good at this."

Enterprise understood what she meant. She had encountered similar problems when she was the logistics director at the Kancolle headquarters.

After all, ship girls have weird ideas, and it doesn't make sense to open a store in a commercial street, so it is possible to find a place to farm.

So she had a general understanding of this.

But not much, after all, the girl has never done it herself, but at least she knows the general process.

After listening to Tiancheng's words, she continued, "Planting requires a certain amount of time to learn, which will cause some trouble in the distribution of work."

After all, it is farming. Although it sounds simple, it still requires learning.

It's not like guarding a warehouse, where anyone can just sit there.

"However," Enterprise finished his sentence and then laughed again, "These problems can be solved. Overall, I think the Commander's idea is a good one."

Huang Chen nodded slightly, quite satisfied with his own suggestion.

Although it will probably take a long time to truly achieve self-sufficiency in vegetables in the port area, at least there is a direction for the future.

Sometimes, the biggest problem is the lack of direction. We run around like a headless fly, which makes us confused and lose confidence.

With a direction, even if the road is difficult and tough, as long as you persist, you can reach the destination.

"Not only vegetables, but also livestock like chickens, ducks, fish, and geese can be considered, as can some fruit trees and the like."

He thought for a moment and then said, "But we can't take too big a step in the first place. Let's start by considering seasonal vegetables."

Tiancheng chuckled and reminded, "Master, compared to seasonal vegetables, fruit trees might be easier to grow."

Huang Chen thought about it and felt that it seemed to be true.

Simple vegetables like leeks don't need to be taken too seriously, but others like peppers and eggplants require more careful attention.

As for fruits, you just need to buy fruit trees, plant them in the ground, and water and fertilize them regularly.

He nodded, and Tiancheng added, "Besides, I don't really recommend raising poultry like chickens, ducks, fish, and geese in the port area."

Enterprise also agreed, "On the one hand, it's a bit noisy. On the other hand, living things are not easy to manage."

Huang Chen listened and nodded. He was just saying it casually.

If you think about it carefully, poultry such as chickens and ducks do have a strong odor, and their feathers and feces are difficult to clean.

And if you want to meet the meat supply in the port area, you will need a lot of feed.

Of course, this cannot be achieved by relying on the girls to farm, and in the end, a cargo ship is still needed to go to Ningyang to buy it back.

So the question is, since I have to go to Ningyang to buy them anyway, why don’t I just buy chickens and ducks instead of going through the trouble of buying some feed?

Moreover, people have emotions.

Even if you know from the beginning that an animal is a poultry, you will inevitably develop feelings for it after raising it for a long time. It will be difficult to bring yourself to eat it when you want to, which is another problem.

"Well, you are right. Then let's not consider poultry like chickens and ducks. Let's plant vegetables and fruit trees in the port area first." Huang Chen nodded, feeling that the plan was being perfected bit by bit.

Enterprise took out a new folder from the side and said, "Let's record it first. Let's discuss it briefly today, and then go to Ning Yang to ask if he has relevant experience."

"This matter is so complicated that we may have to set up a special Ministry of Agriculture to manage it in the future."

As she spoke, she picked up a pen and wrote on the folder.

The pen tip shook slightly, then lifted up, leaving only a line of small words on the cover of the folder: 'Port District Agricultural Planning (Draft)'.

Chapter 837 Hesitant Jarvis

After opening the planning document, Huang Chen discussed with the girls for another hour.

To be exact, we discussed it with Enterprise and Tiancheng for an hour.

New Jersey listened for a while, felt dazed, and ran aside to do other things.

Nagato sat aside from the beginning to the end, but she didn't say a word. She just sat there obediently, looking so gentle. If it weren't for her furry ears moving from time to time, she would have looked like a porcelain doll.

In the end, no actual arrangements were made, such as what to plant first and where to plant, and there was no clear result.

It's just a preliminary plan, such as which land in the port area can be vacated and how the work content can be arranged.

For specific details, you still have to ask professionals, whether it is Kamikaze and others, or go to the headquarters to find someone.

However, Huang Chen did not participate in what happened next.

After all, he is the commander. Although he sometimes doesn't behave like one, in reality, he only needs to grasp the general direction of things in the port area.

The idea of self-sufficiency through farming in the port area was proposed, and the girls could figure out the rest themselves.

It is worth mentioning that during the discussion, he proposed the idea of self-sufficiency in the port area, that is, to make the things in the port area, or the most critical consumables, such as food, fresh water and the like, self-sufficient.

He had just mentioned it casually, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed a bit nonsense.

Although we live on the island, we are not living in seclusion away from people, nor are we living a primitive life.

How can you be self-sufficient if you only have enough food and clothing?

Daily necessities, furniture, electrical appliances, etc. are not taken into account, and even the tons of coal burned in the cafeteria every day are not taken into account.

The most important thing is that as ship girls, you need oil. This kind of oil can’t appear out of thin air, right?

Whether it's a Rubik's Cube, supplies, or even equipment accessories, they can all be dropped by defeating the Siren.

It's like playing a game, you get loot when you defeat the enemy.

But oil doesn't drop, and its consumption is extremely high.

Port patrols, exercises, attacks, and training require a large amount of oil every day, which can only be purchased.

But just as he thought of this question, he heard Enterprise chuckle and say, "If it's oil, Commander, don't worry. That abandoned oil well is about to be taken over by our port area."
