Send the task of helping the ghost read the book to the slime mold center in the form of an official document, and there are still government affairs to deal with.
The growth of floating islands is still ongoing and has had a certain damaging effect on infrastructure.
In the past, floating islands grew outward from the edges. In the past month, the interior of the plate has also been affected.
This change did not bring about ground cracks or large height differences. If a concrete building is built according to standards, it can basically be regarded as a whole stone. A slight tilt of the building will not cause collapse, but it must be repaired in time, otherwise Over time, the building will develop into cracks.
Smaller houses with early brick and wood structures were greatly affected. However, such houses had a limited area and were less affected. An individual could hire two masons to repair them.
The areas most affected are roads, railways, urban pipe networks and transmission lines.
Roads and power lines are less of a problem.
Domestic highways are divided into cement sections and gravel asphalt sections. Most of them are cement roads in cities. Parking is not allowed on the asphalt sections because frequent starts of trucks will cause asphalt bulges. Used in intercity traffic, it can effectively reduce vehicle operating noise and protect tires.
Cement is like a raft, and a slight change in the ground beneath it will not tear the cement, but at most make them shift a little.
There will be many cracks on the asphalt road and they all need to be repaired.
On the transmission line side, a little length is reserved for high-voltage power transmission and will not be pulled too straight, so you only need to replace the cable before it is completely tightened.
The most difficult areas to repair are railways and urban pipe networks.
The rate of change within the territory is about 100 kilometers, with an increase of only two to three meters per day. It takes a week to accumulate the length of a rail. The gaps in the rails are still distributed over a wide range. In addition, this change leads to There is still a lot of backfill work to be done due to the ballast landslide under the sleepers, and it is almost done repairing and rebuilding the railway.
As a last resort, we can only suspend railway transportation and wait until the changes are completed.
Without the railway, the pressure on road logistics has increased again.
Fortunately, in order to speed up the construction of the central cooling tower, many additional trucks and cranes were produced. Now the second phase of the project has been postponed again, which can squeeze out a lot of highway transportation capacity.
The problem of the urban pipe network is more serious than that of the railway, because the main ones affected are sewer pipes, which cannot be repaired without repair. The amount of work required to repair them is huge, and the manpower gap has become larger.
There is no other way but to release another wave of slime molders.
The qualified ghosts needed by the slime mold people have become an important channel for obtaining Phoenix coins overseas... and it is also a smuggling channel.
This situation is very strange.
The goal of each police station in the country is to catch ghosts that are disturbing and harmful to residents, but there are not so many ghosts in the country to screen, so they must rely on input from abroad.
Although ghosts are not considered to have much to do with life, this view is mainly concentrated among the magicians. Most people do not think so. They are suspected of buying and selling people. Cross-border transactions of ghosts cannot obtain official permission and are smuggling. .
However, this smuggling is not like drugs. Ghosts have the opportunity to turn into slime molds in the country and are an important source of labor. It is impossible to catch them ruthlessly.
In short, ghosts are like slaves. They will flow into the country and change their appearance with the acquiescence of border officials who turn a blind eye.
The slime mold people are still in the process of a new round of improvement. During this period, the population of Firefly City has not increased, but they have accumulated a lot. We originally planned to wait until the single device is more mature. But in front of us, the interruption of railway transportation has caused other modes of transportation to be fully loaded, and there is no spare capacity to support the upgrade and construction of the slime mold center. We might as well release two batches to alleviate the manpower gap.
The plan is to be implemented in two batches, adding 10,000 people to Firefly City.
New Ghost and New Body have no foundation in the Qin language and need to be literate. The labor force is still drawn from the local residents of Yinghuo City, and the work locations are mainly concentrated in Xincheng and New Pettus.
Overall, the current situation made Wang Qi a little annoyed.
The earth is unstable, so there is no development.
It's not that there are no ways to crack it. For example, the sacred tree can be used to directly generate city-level wooden foundations, and buildings can be changed into pile foundation structures.
That is to say, most of the building sits on wood, but there are a few points that penetrate the wood and directly contact the ground below.
This method can at least ensure terrain changes within a certain degree, and the sacred tree can adjust its thickness to avoid affecting the level of the building.
But there is no way to actually implement this method.
Not to mention how much fertilizer is needed to form urban-level wooden panels, there is no way to change the floating raft foundation into a pile foundation after the building has been completed.
But being so passive and doing nothing is not Wang Qi's character.
Now he is planning to move the capital.
That's right, move the capital.
The various problems in the old city may be overcome in a few months or even a year or two, but we don’t know when they will return to the state before the island became a floating island.
It can still cope with the plate stretching, but if it is compressed, it will be a devastating disaster.
Therefore, it is necessary to build a central city that can accommodate most of the people.
The location is ready, built directly on the central cooling tower, floating the entire city on the super artificial reservoir of the future!
The central cooling tower is planned to store 9 billion cubic meters of water and covers an area of about 110 square kilometers. In fact, through a small amount of construction, the maximum water storage level can be continued to be raised to increase the area to 130 square kilometers. Including the hills in the area, it can have at least one 150 square kilometers of buoyancy-based platform.
Wang Qi plans to have the sacred tree cover the entire lake, and then use its roots to wrap up the surrounding mountains and the mountain where the central cooling tower is located below to form a living foundation.
Then a multi-layered structure similar to the Royal Court Tree is generated above the floating raft.
Based on three floors, each floor is 20% smaller than the one below. The usable area is about 360 square kilometers, which is thirty times the total area inside and outside the existing Phoenix City.
I didn't rush to use the artifact book. I drew a rough concept diagram first, and then interacted with Li Xiang during the break to make a wooden model and called Solaris.
Similarly, Wang Qi still said Solaris's name in front of the statue, and it appeared a few seconds later. There is reason to suspect that this Solaris is not the real body at all, but a clone represented by the Wangting Tree.
"I want to build a city like this, can your seeds do it?"
Solaris looked at the model, then at the map and the scale, and asked: "You have always had the seeds, do you think you can do it?"
"With the current strength of wood, the possibility is very low. A special magic array is needed to reduce the weight of the structure." Wang Qi explained, "The current level of geological changes is really unfriendly to humans. So I think it’s necessary to move the capital.”
"So you want a stronger seed?"
Wang Qi nodded: "If there is one, it's best. If not, I hope you can tell me how to achieve metallization of the sacred tree."
Solaris was still staring at the big picture. Perhaps he found such a large-scale structure very interesting. He smiled and said, "Okay, bring me the book."
