Mao Mu looked at the drawings in his hand and was very excited, "That's great. With the crossbow arrows, it will be more lethal. I will study how to do it right away."
"Wait, I haven't finished speaking yet."
Mao Mu stopped and looked at Lin Yan, "Tell me, what else is there?"
Lin Yan also thought of it on the spur of the moment, and after thinking for a while he said: "Maomu, you are already twenty-two years old this year, which is the best age. Have you ever thought about what you want to do in the future?"
"What do you mean?" Mao Mu seemed puzzled, "Isn't it good like this now? I'm busy going around every day and don't have to worry about food and drink. I'm quite satisfied."
Lin Yan asked in a different way, "In the laboratory, we are all younger than you. You also know that Shui Sheng and Lan Yue have plans for their futures. Huang Ying, Hong Ling, and Bai Chen have also found their own directions. Shi Zhi and Ye Cong are focusing on various experiments, leaving you and Lin Yun, haven't you thought about what you want to do?"
Mao Mu scratched his head and said, "I really haven't thought about this too much. You are both smart, unlike me and Lin Yun, who are not outstanding in all aspects. It would be pretty good just to work in the smelter and kiln factory."
"No, everyone is good at something and has something they like. You are good at improving weapons, right?"
When it comes to weapons, Mao Mu is very enthusiastic. This performance does not mean that he has no ideas.
Lin Yan continued: "After experiencing this flock, I thought about it and decided to create more advanced weapons. I want to set up a weapons research laboratory dedicated to creating more powerful weapons, like crossbows. Military Department Everyone is important and has grown up through hard training. If they can be equipped with more powerful weapons, the damage will be less. This time we are lucky and there are no casualties, but we cannot be so lucky every time .”
"The Weapons Research Laboratory specializes in studying this and improving weapons for the military. I will talk to Alan and Kurotsuchi later. The reason why I ask you first is because I think you can take on this important responsibility."
Momu was shocked, "Can I really do it? Such a big thing is of great importance and cannot be joked about."
"I'm not kidding." Lin Yan looked at him seriously. "Everything I just said is true. This is a direction. We need to build a strong team. Weapons and equipment are very important. Existing conditions You can only equip cold weapons, but don’t you want to work hard for hot weapons?”
"Of course I want to, I never give up."
"Then it's settled. You study the crossbow first, and I'll go find Alan and Kurotsuchi to discuss it. If nothing else happens, the research office will be able to confirm it soon, so be prepared."
Seeing Lin Yan leaving in a hurry, Mao Mu didn't come back to his senses for a moment.
It was a big pie and it hit him on the head. But can he really take on such a heavy burden?
Looking down at the blueprint in his hand, Maomu thought that regardless of so many things, making the crossbow was the most important thing.
Two days later, Mao Mu waited for Lin Yan's exact answer. The weapons research laboratory plan is feasible, and he is the person in charge. He needs to draft the weapons research laboratory's charter, etc., and submit them to the arbitration tribunal for review.
Once approved by the arbitration tribunal, weapons research will be officially established. One additional research room will be added to the laboratory, from the original four to five.
In order to live up to Lin Yan's trust and trust, Mao Mu dove in and studied crossbows every day, bound to give everyone a satisfactory answer.
It was time to harvest wheat again, and everyone went to work in the fields. Lin Yan temporarily put down his work and harvested wheat together.
The yard at home has been cleared, and all the recovered wheat is piled in the yard. It’s harvest time, and I’m busy cutting wheat every day, waiting in line for the rack truck to take it home.
Harvesting is the most tiring, and we have to stay up late at night to work. After a few days, everyone is exhausted.
But seeing the piles of wheat piled up more and more at home makes it worth it no matter how tired I am.
After five or six days of busy work, most people's wheat was harvested, and the rest was their own wheat grinding. Nowadays, every family has prepared a wheel in advance to dry and crush the wheat. In only five or six days, the wheat is threshed.
This season's wheat harvest is bumper, everyone is smiling, and the whole city is full of laughter.
Alan's heart was completely relieved. He didn't see the wheat being harvested and threshed, so he didn't dare to rest assured. The food related to the whole city is a top priority.
The cold season is coming soon. Only by stocking up on wheat for a season can we get through it safely.
After harvesting the wheat, Lin Yan followed Yun Qing to the Tree House Tribe and saw that they were also preparing for the cold season, hunting and fishing, which was very difficult.
Especially when I saw a few children who were so thin that only their bones were left, their cheeks were sunken, and their eyes looked very big.
Lin Yan was very afraid that they would not survive this cold season. They are still so young, and they have been tortured for just a few years after they came into this world.
The cold season is a test of life and death for children. If they survive, they will survive, but most of them cannot survive.
Yun Qing whispered: "Can't bear it anymore?"
Lin Yan nodded, "I want to take them to Sun City." I couldn't help them before, but now that I have the ability, I can't just watch people die.
Although Yun Qing felt that Lin Yan was doing something unnecessary, he was not from the same clan, so why should he do this. But she didn't say anything.
Before coming, Alan talked to her about the placement of the tree house tribe. Alan's intention is very clear. If the Tree House Tribe is willing, they can move to Sun City.
This is a decision made after discussion by the arbitral tribunal, and preparations have begun to accommodate the tree tribe.
Lin Yan also wanted to bring back the people from the Tree House Tribe during this trip.
There was a language barrier, so she racked her brains and gestured, trying to make Li understand. Finally, she unleashed her ultimate move, pointed to the ship, displayed all the food she had brought, and motioned for Li to take the others to follow her to take a look at Sun City.
Li finally understood and pointed at himself, then at the boat, and finally at the direction from which Lin Yan and the others came.
Lin Yan nodded and said happily: "Yes, yes, that's what I mean. You come with us to have a look first. You can also bring your tribe with you."
Li looked at the people behind him and jabbered a lot. An old woman walked out of the crowd and they got on the boat together.
In the worried eyes of others, the boat went upstream.
Speaking of motivation, Lin Yan felt that things were almost the same. Once they see the life in Sun City, they won't want to come back and continue to live a miserable life.
It took more than four hours by boat to arrive at Sun City.
Along the way, Li and the old woman looked at the scenery on both sides of the river curiously. They had never seen such scenery. Of course, what intrigued them the most was the boat under their feet, which could walk along the water flow and have a smooth journey.
When the boat stopped and saw the simple dock, Li's eyes widened and he didn't understand how it was made.
The wooden boards of the pier are neatly cut and smooth, and they are supported on the water by wooden pillars. Everything is beyond imagination.
Although the tree house tribe lives in trees, their tree houses are very rough. They use local materials and are built with ready-made branches and other structures. It's not at the same level as the wooden workmanship of the dock.
