Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 202: The use of ice

"Fine, if I encounter related books or secret records in the future, I will pay attention to it a little bit." Xia Fan shrugged.

　　"By the way, why are you so obsessed with the living dead?" Fang Xiandao was puzzled, "They are useless except for being proficient in combat, and they need someone to take care of them in their daily lives--"

　　 "Chichi is taking care of the young master!" the little girl protested.

　　 He decided to ignore it, "Whether you are looking for a servant or a guard now, it’s nothing difficult. And even in terms of combat effectiveness, this fox demon girl is already strong enough, not much worse than the living dead. ."

　　 Li nodded proudly.

　　"I guess you never want to eat such ice? Saltpeter can also make ice. The price is not a problem for you. Why spend such a large price in exchange for the living dead?"

　　 Xia Fan smiled without answering.

　　 Shaved ice is really just an appetizer.

　　He has a far-reaching plan in mind, that is, relying on the convenience of the waterway of Jinxia City, to establish a cold chain storage and transportation system that is impossible with existing technology.

　　 That's right, he wants to break the geographical restrictions and further tap the inherent advantages of Jinxia City to the extreme.

　　 In fact, besides salt, there is another unobtrusive specialty here, which is seafood.

　　 In the era when the fishing industry was still dominated by handicrafts, the ocean was almost inexhaustible and inexhaustible. All kinds of fish, shellfish and sea shrimp are common items on the Jinxiacheng table. Unfortunately, these high-protein foods are difficult to store for a long time. If they are not made into dry goods, they will spoil and deteriorate within a day, which in turn restricts The output. After all, too much fish is easy to sell at a low price, no one has to clean up the smelly dead fish by themselves.

　　 But with ice storage, the situation is completely different.

　　 On the one hand, he can use seafood as a short-term food reserve; on the other hand, fishermen can safely increase production. These two will in turn affect the residents' meat intake, thereby reducing the consumption of staple food.

　　 This is by no means a trivial change.

　　 If you eat four or five bowls of rice a day to fill your stomach, you can reduce it to two or three bowls after adding meat, which will not be a small number when you expand to the whole city or even other regions. To make it smaller is to improve the diet structure of residents, and to make it larger is to reduce the pressure on staple foods and optimize the strategic structure of food.

　　 In addition, the princess' recruitment plan is very smooth. Mo Yun's new mechanics bureau is also being constructed step by step. When the army is reorganized and matched with the mecha squad, the battle of Jinxia City will reach a new peak. But a city alone is not enough.

　　 In the final analysis, its population is limited, and its resources are neither coal nor iron. Sooner or later it will be a matter of expansion. If you want to make a difference, at least the entire Shenzhou has to be integrated. This requires the army to go out and change from defense to offense. Because once this step is taken, the court will definitely react, and under the four loaves of bread, they will not be able to win the victory by sitting on the city.

　　 And if you want your troops to be flexible, logistics is undoubtedly the top priority.

　　With cold chain transportation, he can send a large amount of fresh meat to the front line at any time. More importantly, this system does not cost much money. Cargo ships can be refitted with ordinary sailboats, and there is no need to build large farms? 　East China Sea itself can provide enough high-quality protein? 　Even the fishing tool elves are "ready"? The right choice.

　　Everything is ready? 　Only half a wind is owed.

　　A thousand knowledge can support the cold storage of Jinxia City and the cold chain transportation of the surrounding Baili? 　 But considering the redundant backup? 　 And spread this transportation line along the inland river to farther places? 　 Obviously come to Jinxia The more living dead, the better.

　　Fang Xiandao thought he just wanted an entourage picture fresh? 　 But what Xia Fan actually wanted was the natural magic group of the living dead.

　　Of course, this plan is not suitable for speaking out in public.

　　He doesn't mind Ning Wanjun's ambition? 　It doesn't mean that Fang's family does not mind either.

　　It is better to be cautious about matters involving imperial power.

　　"Forget it? 　Whatever you want, it has nothing to do with me." Fang Xiandao saw that he didn't answer, and didn't intend to follow up? 　 "I've been on the appointment anyway? 　 You should fulfill your promise, too."

　　 Xia Fan walked back to his desk, took out a stack of books and pushed it in front of Fang Xiandao, "The top part is the principle of magic and the talisman, but you definitely don’t understand it. So I also prepared a set of primers. Manual? 　 When you finish studying the following books, you should be able to get a preliminary understanding of the shaking technique that day."

　　 Fang Xiandao showed a slight surprise? 　 If the other party pretends to be confused, or deliberately hides half of it, he will not be surprised. After all, it involves personal skills and experience, and it is inevitable that people will easily regret it at a critical moment. Unexpectedly, the other party was worried that he would not understand, and prepared an introduction, which was really unexpected.

　　 It's worthwhile to help him many times.

　　 "Huh, don't underestimate me." Fang Xiandao opened the top secret record without hesitation, and then stared blankly. What are the things drawn on this? What does this symbol mean? He can know every word, but why is it totally incomprehensible when they are put together? "Ahem... It's interesting, I think the above symbol should be the key to your experience. At this time, you really need to explain it before you can understand it."

　　He calmly pulled out the next book. First-level arithmetic? Does it mean corresponding to a product? Interestingly, for a fortuneteller, the arithmetic is just a basic skill.

　　 turn to the first page.

　　 turn to the second page.

　　 When it reached the third page, Fang Xiandao suddenly closed the book. He felt a hint of coolness behind him, "Can you let me go back and take a closer look?"

　　 "Of course, this is the promised thing, and it belongs to you now." Xia Fan said disapprovingly.

　　 "If there is nothing else... then I will leave first." Fang Xiandao put the book away, pretending to be calm, "You should have a lot of work to do? For example, meeting old friends...I Don’t bother~IndoMTL.com~Meeting old friends? What is that?"

　　"Why, maybe no one has visited you recently?" Fang Xiandao thought, "It seems that this is another wrong display. The scope of divination has to be adjusted."

　　 "Can you even take this out?" Xia Fan asked in surprise.

　　 "The sign of the hexagram is a change, and someone visiting is naturally one of the changes. It's just—no, it’s nothing, you just assume I haven’t said this."

　　 is only related to Xia Fan himself, there will be huge vacancies in the hexagrams, so he can only enlarge the prediction range to the surrounding of the opponent, for example, the last time he used the fortune teller Jinxia City to learn the result of the storm. Although this will not lead to nothing, the deviation and difficulty of interpretation will be many times higher. The latest divination is one of his attempts after adjusting the scope many times. It seems that the result is not satisfactory.

　　——For the sake of maintaining his own image, Fang Xiandao naturally cannot say these reasons.

　　"But don’t old friends come here just to reminisce about the past and connect with each other?" Xia Fan said that the credibility of this divination is worrying, "I won’t see you next time this time, what changes can it cause?"

　　 "Uh...you seem to make some sense." Fang Xiandao pondered for a moment, "Perhaps the change refers to the visitor itself? Or...this is the last chance?"

　　 "What is that?"

　　"For example, if you stagger this time, there will be no possibility of the next time." Fang Xiandao replied casually, "But since you already know the wrong result, you can treat it as if you haven't heard it before."
