Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 478 We strongly protest!

After breakfast, Zhou Yi first went to check on the academic performance of the new employee Liangzi.

"Are you still used to it?"

Faced with the question, Ryoko showed a trace of confusion on her face: "Mathematics and electricity are difficult, but political economy is very interesting... Chairman, does every new employee have to undergo this level of study?"

Zhou Yi still remembers how radiant and energetic this angel of death looked after the operation, like a female college student on vacation.

Now that melancholy appeared on Ryoko's brow again.

Zhou Yi said, "Not really. But you are the company's overseas consultant, and your work involves negotiations and cooperation between the company and various overseas groups. Mathematics is the basis of calculations, and electricity gives you a little understanding of electricity. The essence of the electric cat system is the application of electricity. You don't need to learn these two aspects in depth, but you must have basic concepts and cognition."

"I plan to make you the head of the company's offshore affairs department, and you will be in charge of setting up the department. You will represent the company offshore, so the personal requirements for you will also be high."

He also had doubts at first.

After all, Ryoko had just joined the company. According to the investigation by Recursive City and Xingshu, she had indeed been running a shop in the offshore area for many years and had transactions with various parties, without any malicious stains.

There is certainly nothing wrong with having overseas consultants, as consultants are people who make use of their expertise in a certain field.

But for a newcomer like this, whose abilities other than her beauty have yet to be demonstrated, is it too risky to authorize her to set up a department like the Department of Offshore Affairs?

Zhou Yi later changed his mind.

Yuan Tong, Zheng Tao, and Qian Su also transformed rapidly under pressure. Things are done by doing, and whether they are suitable or not, and whether you have the ability to do them well, can only be known after you have done them.

In this wasteland era, the earth has become a two-world.

The lower layer is the inland sea on the surface. The Dead Sea is surrounded by some small islands and land, and is home to the largest number of life forms.

The new humans, whose population is still huge, the electromechanical life that dominates technology, and the light nano species living in various areas of the Dead Sea are mostly in this circle.

The upper layer is the outer sea in the sky, where the density of dead sea is high, the impact of energy flow is more violent, and the environment is more dangerous, but it is also the main active environment of the Skywalkers.

The firewood mounds in the inner sea are monopolized and controlled by the celestial beings, but there are no restrictions in the outer sea. It can be seen that the celestial beings encourage the life in the inner sea to grow further and enter the outer sea to survive after advancement.

Now that we have an entry point into the open sea, we have to give it a try.

Zhou Yi finally decided that if Ryoko really couldn't hold her own in the open sea, then he would just change someone else.

"I... Minister of Offshore Affairs?"

Ryoko was stunned: "But, I just joined the company and am still in the training stage..."

"Timing is important."

Zhou Yi said seriously, "The company also needs to manage our products and markets overseas. Our inventions and creations can only create value if someone can use them. We also need employees who understand overseas to promote our products there and find our potential customers. Are you unwilling?"

"Yes! I do!"

The other party nodded quickly: "I will definitely complete my studies here as soon as possible, please rest assured, Chairman."

Upon hearing that she had been appointed as the department head, Ryoko suddenly regained her spirits and seemed to have rekindled her enthusiasm. She looked very happy and her appearance improved significantly.

Then Zhou Yi took Heifu to fly to Yalong Bay to check the growth of the Pan trees.

After not seeing them for a long time, these huge trees from another world are still stable at a height of 40 meters, but their trunks and branches have become stronger and more luxuriant.

The coiled structure like a mosquito coil is filled with a large number of leaves and branches, turning it into a real disc-shaped wide crown.

Under the tree, Nig was building a fence.

With the Pan tree as the core, he built circles of walls with mud slabs, the height of which gradually decreased from the inside to the outside, shaped like some kind of maze.

Zhou Yi asked him what he was doing.

"Chairman, this is a tree fence, which can promote the growth of the tree. Now the supply of amber is almost unlimited, so we can make this thing."

While Nige continued his mud slab work, he said, "We have to build tree fences for every tall tree. This is done by our mud department."

"The tree enclosure was developed by our mud department. It must be made of very pure mud, with a certain distance around the tree, ensuring that each layer of the "enclosure" is directly connected to the tree with a mud path."

"In fact, the more circles there are, the higher the technical requirements are, because the dirt paths connecting each circle and the trees cannot cross each other. To avoid disrupting the connections between different circles, we need to use soil to create isolation."

"If the connection of the circles is unbalanced, the entire tree circumference will be disordered, and energy turbulence will occur. Not only will it not promote the growth of the tree, but it will harm it."

Zhou Yi observed it carefully.

The white walls made of white amber and the isolation columns and transfer support platforms built of black amber, alternating between black and white, look like some strange ancient altar.

A small inverted whirlpool formed here in the Dead Sea, and a large amount of light mist was rolled up, concentrating and rising towards the tree.

Zhou Yi suddenly thought of it.

Isn't this the amber orbit?
The Leshan Giant Buddha once used a track structure made of amber to change the flow direction of the Dead Sea in some areas.

Zhou Yi grabbed the mud grid that was still being used to build the tree fence and asked, "How long can this last?"

"It will take quite a long time. If there are no monsters... that is, the impact of the light nano species, or if there is no sudden explosion and external destruction, as long as there are people to repair it regularly, the tree fence can continue."

"The towering trees over there have a girth, so they grow fast and are able to draw power from the nearby Dead Sea to rise even higher into the sky."

Nig said proudly: "Although I am not the best in this area, I am definitely one of the best. If you are not good at using mud and soil, you can't be an explorer."

Zhou Yi's heart moved when he heard this.

It seems that some natural laws of the Dead Sea environment are the same whether on Earth or in the mud tree world.

With Nige's amber track technology, plus the strength and size of the Leshan Giant Buddha, perhaps the transformation of the regional Dead Sea will be realized sooner than expected.

When the Buddha comes back, we will have to try this.

Pulling his thoughts back, Zhou Yi found the tree demon Ye Qing again: "Before you said that the Pan Tree can be further strengthened as long as the light amber can be supplied in large quantities. Is it enough now?"

"It's enough, Chairman. It's more than enough! The constant supply of amber, plus the tree fence of the mud grid, and our existing fertilization and cultivation technology, the combination of the three can produce excellent results!"

The dryad's vines swayed excitedly on the winding tree.

"But... the cost is much higher than I expected."

"I am observing this Pan tree in real time. It is the first tree that Hefu has completed secondary development. We named them the first to eighth trees in the order of their planting time." "The first tree is recovering very quickly now. You can see that it has basically returned to the state it was in a year ago and is also bearing fruit."

Zhou Yi looked at the treetops.

It really is.

If Nige hadn't reminded him, he would have forgotten that this Pan tree was in a weak and withered state not long ago, and it seemed like it would soon die after being sucked dry by Heifu.

The vitality of this plant is truly amazing.

Ye Qing continued, "I have discussed this with the tree demons on other Pan trees, and we have basically reached a consensus."

"If we want to push a Pan tree to the next stage of qualitative change, we need 400 million light seeds of amber. If Nig hadn't said that we have now created a medium-sized amber mine, we would not dare to do so. We are now intensively cultivating the first and second trees to see what they will eventually become."

Zhou Yi's smile froze when he heard this.

It takes 400 million light seeds to upgrade a Pan tree.

This is going to eat a small mine.

No wonder Ye Qing had been hesitant before, only saying that the consumption was high. The number was too large and he didn't dare to say it out loud.

Zhou Yi looked at Ni Ge who was still pasting the wall and asked: "Are the Pan trees over there so edible?"

"This tree must be able to absorb. If it absorbs well, the body will be healthy."

Nigge said nonchalantly, "But the Dead Sea over there is much stronger than here, and has more energy, plus there's the Purple Sun, which can speed up the process. Whether it's the Pan Tree or the Dingtian Tree, they grow faster under the Purple Sun. They're not afraid of the Purple Sun, and can absorb more power, although other monsters will go berserk and crazy under the Purple Sun."

Zhou Yi could only sigh.

The Mud Tree World is indeed blessed by nature, so it is there that the Pan Tree can evolve into the Towering Tree and become the cornerstone of the Mud Tree People's civilization.

Further growth will take time.

Ye Qing speculated that this transformation would be completed around winter.

……

Zhou Yi went to chamber 1 to visit Hydrogen Flow, and then rushed to chamber 2 to watch Turing's testing and reorganization of the gem cells.

It was late at night when we returned to the Emerald City.

Zhou Yi was lying on the bed and about to rest.

Suddenly he remembered something and asked Hong Xun through the tablet: "Has the messenger from the Legal Front left?"

"It's still waiting downstairs in the Emerald City."

"You won't leave until you see me?"

"It said that it has a mission and will seek an opportunity to meet you here, so it is prepared for a long time and will continue to wait here."

Apart from anything else, this work attitude is still praised.

Zhou Yi put on his coat: "Let it come up."

A few minutes later.

The messenger, who had been waiting for more than 24 hours, finally stepped into the gate of 3101.

The person who came was very similar to Maria's Iron Nurse, with the same smooth metal face, copper wire-wrapped hair, and a metal body with a woman's slender figure.

The difference is that it shows its mechanical body openly without wearing any clothes.

"Mr. Zhou, good evening. I am Vivian, an investigator from Suzheng City and also a legal consultant. I am here to visit you as an envoy of the Legal Front."

No wonder it looks like...

Zhou Yi thought. Maria was based on the investigator of Suzheng City, and the one in front of him was the real one.

He said, "Drink something? Engine oil? Power steering fluid? Differential fluid?"

Ever since Bai Xie came to drink engine oil, Zhou Yi also prepared some of the items in order to entertain the mechanical and electrical life.

"Thank you, the oil is fine."

Yuanxiao poured a cup of engine oil for the other person.

Vivian turned sideways and used her metal arm to cover her face, then lifted up her smooth silver face and poured the oil into a small tube, which contained a densely packed structure of machinery and cables.

Then its face closed and it returned to normal.

"Mr. Zhou, I came here this time because your company has poached our electromechanical expert Turing. He is a very influential leader in the field of programming and has participated in many confidential projects. Turing is also one of the legal advisors of the Legal Front, specializing in providing advice in the field of technology."

"Its departure and transfer have had a very bad impact on the mechanical and electrical city."

"We strongly protest against your technological sanctions and unilateral talent plundering!"

"Your company's unilateral hegemonic behavior is seriously damaging the interests of both sides. Please stop this!"

It was late at night and Zhou Yi was amused.

"Wasteland Corporation is only developing new technologies to optimize people's livelihood, so that residents in various regions can live at a lower cost. We can also profit from it."

"If developing new technology is a sanction against old technology, then we can only say that old things do not meet the needs of the times and are not supported by everyone, so they should be abandoned."

"The claim of talent plundering is even more absurd. Turing came to us on his own initiative. We certainly would not reject such a top talent. We just solved his worries and helped him pay the penalty."

"There is even less talk of hegemonic behavior. If we are to talk about hegemony, the Legal Front has been sanctioning us in all aspects, right?"

Zhou Yi crossed his legs: "But I believe that you didn't come here to say such things. Let's talk about something practical, Vivian, and talk about something useful."

The other party paused for a moment.

"The Legal Front hopes to reach a comprehensive settlement with your company."
