Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 201 Emerald City Set

Zhou Yi conducted a physical examination on the dog-headed man at Coral Mouth.

He remembers the specific parameters clearly.

……

【Tengu】

Strength: B
Skill: B
Vitality: C
Grade: B
……

The Kobold has three modified enhanced bodies.

Its left foot has "propulsion" and its right foot has "body control". Although its strength is very high after being infused with sapphire, it is still a relatively common ability.

The "radiation" in Tengu's eyes is much rarer.

The receptionist, Snowman, said: "Controlled radiation is a double-edged sword. Its destructive power is unquestionable and is lethal to most life forms."

"But this capability is also used in important fields such as photolithography, medical surgery, and precision measurement, and is an indispensable and important tool."

Zhou Yi felt mixed emotions when he heard this.

The good news is that this ability can be developed in many directions, but the bad news is that it is very destructive and can be regarded as a powerful weapon.

We have to restrain the Tengu and let it know that this ability cannot be used indiscriminately.

Especially the dog-headed man and Li Mo, who have been living in the jewel room of the celestial beings since they can remember, with no contact with the outside world. It takes some time for them to adapt to the external group society.

So Zhou Yi placed it in a cave in Yalong Bay, and let Li Mo take care of this newcomer, teach it some survival rules in the wasteland world, and teach it the correct way of life.

Unexpectedly, its "radiation" produced a strange chemical reaction with Li Mo's cup.

The kobold himself couldn't explain it clearly.

"Moge said he wanted to make a cup that could actually burn, and show the company's people a high-end cup, so I wanted to give it a try. Then I found that the light from my eyes could melt and ignite the azure sand, so that the fire could be put in the cup."

"I don't know why they keep burning."

Zhou Yi summoned the Red Falcon.

The drone carefully scanned the Goblet of Fire with its electronic eyes.

Ten minutes later, a voice came out of the Red Falcon's speaker: "I searched the Recursive City database and confirmed the reaction mechanism."

"Under natural conditions, photon will absorb the energy of dead light, but the absorption and release will occur simultaneously, so it cannot accumulate energy itself."

"High-intensity radiation focusing can melt the soot and transform their loose porous structure into a closed-loop structure, which can store the adsorbed energy for a longer time."

"Tengu has transformed the light soot layer in the cup. The flame cup is immersed in the Dead Sea, and it can continue to absorb the energy of the dead light until it reaches the limit of its own structure."

"This accumulated dead light energy will be ignited as long as it is rubbed with an igniter, resulting in a continuous high-temperature release."

Hong Jian said: "The basic principle is the same as the energy pack. The only difference is that the energy pack is wrapped in a metal shell, and inside is the fully charged light soot."

"The energy level of the flame cup is much lower, and it can only be used for ignition and temperature increase."

Zhou Yi's eyes lit up when he heard this.

It doesn’t matter if the energy level is low.

The flame cup is a small stove that uses death light as energy. It can be used to keep warm at any time, which is very useful for ordinary people.

Zhou Yi immediately called Cao Dayuan and Yuan Tong.

These two old employees are from ordinary backgrounds and are very familiar with the living conditions of the new humans.

After hearing about the Goblet of Fire, Cao Dayuan's eyes widened: "There is such a good thing?"

"Chairman, heating and making fire are things that everyone has to do, and the consumption of firewood is huge every year."

"When it's cold, we need to keep warm. It's best to boil water before drinking it. Some foods must be cooked before eating. Our jade soup tastes better with hot water."

"Emerald City can provide heating, but people outside don't have that privilege. Now that autumn is getting colder, the consumption of firewood is also increasing, and it will only get worse in winter."

He said excitedly, "Every household needs this! If we have this, we won't freeze to death in the winter, and we can have hot water to keep warm when we go out. It's a great treasure, really great, really great!"

Yuan Tong touched the outer wall of the obsidian cup, with a look of surprise on his face: "It's not hot at all, but the temperature inside is very high."

"Li Mo's obsidian craft can insulate, but it will be very hot inside when the temperature rises."

Zhou Yi told him: "Sprinkle some sand in, and the fire will stop."

Yuan Tong grabbed a handful of sand from the ground and poured it in.

As the sand covered the cup, the red light in the cup went out after a while, and only wisps of hot air floated out of it.

"Did this put out the fire?" Yuan Tong was puzzled.

Zhou Yi shook his head: "In fact, the sand can isolate the light soot layer from the outside world, allowing the energy in the light soot to return to a stable and closed state."

"When you need to use it, pour out the sand and rub it with something ignitable to light it again. You can also put sand in it at other times to ensure it won't ignite."

Yuan Tong looked at the obsidian flame cup with admiration in his eyes: "This is a very practical heating tool. For humans, this thing has irreplaceable value. But it is made of soot, so it should be very expensive... It is difficult for ordinary people to afford it."

The smile on Cao Dayuan's face also dimmed for a moment.

Zhou Yi smiled slightly: "Only a little bit of light soot sand is enough to create a fire focus, and it can be melted into a thin film under high temperature radiation. About 2 grams will be enough, which is about 10 coppers, or 1000 mushrooms. How much do you think we should price it at?"

"10 coppers?"

“It’s so cheap!”

The two old employees were immediately ecstatic.

“Rechargeable heating tools are affordable for ordinary people!”

"Chairman, what's our price?"

Zhou Yi raised his hand and gestured: "Let me confirm one thing first. It should be no problem for ordinary people to operate it, right?"

"No problem."

Cao Dayuan played with the obsidian cup in his hand and said, "It's not difficult to put the cup into the Dead Sea. We have a dam here. It's safe to put it into the Dead Sea with a rope or a lasso."

Yuan Tong also picked up another cup and looked at it from left to right: "Actually, this is already a simple campfire, easy to carry, and everyone can use it. I just don't know how many Li Mo and his team can make in a day?" Zhou Yi said: "I plan to give the flame cup to Shanhukou for mass production, so that the cost can be reduced. Large-scale production can increase efficiency and output."

"Just like the Emerald Soup, I will send the Goblet of Fire to every human city and sell it to every household at the lowest possible price."

"What do you think?"

Cao Dayuan was quite excited when he heard this. He raised the cup in his hand and said, "Chairman, if you are willing to make a profit, this thing can save many lives."

"Many scavengers are in need of a fire in the winter. If they can gather together a cup of fire, several people can survive. This is a great thing, and it will help many people who are in difficult situations to get through it! They will all remember you and the hope given by the company!"

After some thought, Yuan Tong said, "Shanhukou has a large factory complex that can quickly produce a large number of flame cups and send them to various places. Even if it is cheaper and a little more profitable, it will be beneficial to the company as a whole."

They all agreed, so Zhou Yi directly contacted Jin Yi in Coral Mouth.

After listening to me, the other party said: "This is a civilian fuel appliance. There is a special member in the program department who is responsible for it. I will contact him for you."

Zhou Yi said, "Can you simplify the process so I can talk to you directly about this?"

"Wait a moment, I'll apply to the program department."

Half an hour later.

Jin Yi said: "The application has been approved. Now I have been authorized by the program department. If you have any projects to cooperate with Shanhukou in the future, just contact me."

Zhou Yi didn't waste any words and showed the Goblet of Fire through the Red Falcon's camera.

"I'll come right over."

Jin Yi hurried to Emerald City again by business jet.

The electronic bee flew all the way into the cave, and under the demonstration of Li Mo and the dog-headed man, it saw the entire production process of the Goblet of Fire, as well as tested and inspected this cup.

After repeated testing 12 times.

Jin Yi commented: "It is indeed a good improvement. The light-printed structure "radiation", the heat-resistant material obsidian, and the cup shaping required for production can all be reproduced and prepared, and can be completed through assembly line production."

"The Program Department has passed the final review. Coral Mouth is willing to cooperate with your company in the production and sale of the Goblet of Fire and share the benefits."

Zhou Yi noticed it keenly.

This cooperation is different from the previous one with Feicui Tang. It is just a joint venture for production and sales. There is no patent and brand packaging promotion. Obviously, Coral Mouth attaches much less importance to it.

But it doesn’t matter, as long as we can produce in bulk and sell it to the outside world.

"In accordance with your requirements, product dissemination and expanding influence are considered the most important goals. We have increased the weight of these two in the calculation and lowered the price."

"Finally, we considered the actual purchasing power of human consumers and proposed a preliminary price of 15 coppers, or 1500 mushrooms."

Jin Yi emphasized: "But in this case, after deducting the processing, loss and transportation costs, the profit of a flame cup is estimated to be only 10-50 mushrooms, or even lower."

"Can you accept that?"

Zhou Yi said readily: "Accept it, this is the price."

The strategy is to make it cheap enough so that even a scavenger can afford it. In the long run, it can increase the survival rate of new humans and allow more humans to survive the winter.

He didn't intend to make a profit from this, just to gain some fame.

Speaking of the Goblet of Fire, we're talking about the Company and the Emerald City, and that's enough.

The promotional effect of this product will be huge in attracting talents from all over the world in the future.

Then Zhou Yi and Jin Yi signed an electronic agreement, officially handing over the Goblet of Fire to Shanhukou for production and external sales.

……

A few days later, the company's employees were the first to use the first batch of fire cups.

However, what everyone uses are all handmade by Li Mo and Tengu. Each one is unique and is a company benefit.

Zhou Yi observed that employees quickly developed various uses for it.

Some people put a ceramic cup on the flame cup and drink hot water and cattail soup at any time.

Some people fix a diamond-shaped stone on the cup, which turns it into a high-end crystal lamp through high-temperature refraction.

Some even used it as a small forging furnace to try to burn various pottery, and others used it to melt copper and iron - but due to energy level reasons, the temperature was simply insufficient and this direction failed.

They took their respective Goblets of Fire, some put them in backpacks and boxes, some held them in their hands, which became a natural trend.

half a month later.

The first batch of Flame Cups were shipped from Coral Mouth to various places and began to be distributed on a large scale.

The Goblet of Fire quickly became a must-have tool that everyone rushed to buy due to its low price and practical functions.

Sand Harbor City, Fullmetal City, and Shell City also purchased a large number of Flame Cups as soon as possible to help city residents survive the winter.

Nearly another month passed.

The scramble among various cities for the Goblet of Fire finally forced Coral Mouth to change its plan and invest more promotional resources in it.

They began to package the [Emerald City Set], which contained [Emerald Soup] and [Goblet of Fire]. The latter could process and cook the former, and the two began to be packaged and sold in combination, and were exported to many towns.

Although the profit was small, the market response was extremely good.

A large number of outsiders suddenly poured into the Shagang area. They came from various cities and took boats to try their luck at the Wasteland Development Company. The flow of people increased all of a sudden.

Hong Xun made a statistics: "This month, the net inflow of population in the Sand Harbor area is over 1200 people. The Goblet of Fire and Jade Soup are the main reasons that attracted them."

Zhou Yi was very satisfied with this.

The effect is immediate.

As long as these two daily consumables continue to be sold and expand their sales, the company's name will continue to spread everywhere.

When everything was flourishing, the first snow of winter fell without warning.

The first shot of the War of Honor was fired on time.
