Chapter 321 Investment and Harvest
When Tu Long saw Liang Yuan studying the floating boards, he also squatted down to study them and said, "Mr. Liang, is there anything wrong with these floating boards?"
"The buoyancy is abnormal. Such a thin floating board has so many of us standing on it but it doesn't sink."
When Tu Long heard this, he immediately thought of something and said: "There is obviously adhesive between these bottles and plastic plates. Does this look like the sea cucumber mucus collected by our Yangshan breeding farm?"
Liang Yuan nodded slightly: "The adhesive is indeed sea cucumber mucus. It is not only super sticky, but also strong and wear-resistant, and not easy to fall off. However, sea cucumber mucus does not have such strong buoyancy."
The two men opened the plastic bottles and plastic plates one by one to check for suspicious places.
Qi Delong on the side saw this and couldn't help but said: "Mr. Liang, I may know the reason."
When Liang Yuan heard this, he turned to look at him in slight surprise: "You know?"
Qi Delong nodded slightly, pointed to the plastic platform at his feet, and said: "Under here, there are actually several huge buoyancy-bearing devices in the swim bladders."
When Liang Yuan heard this, he was slightly startled and asked: "How do you know?"
Qi Delong hesitated for a moment and said: "I once wanted to sneak into Building 87 to rescue people, but I accidentally discovered the devices under these plastic platforms."
Liang Yuan looked Qi Delong up and down, and suddenly asked: "What is your superpower?"
Qi Delong was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Water attribute power."
Liang Yuan suddenly realized that people with water attributes can easily dive.
He immediately said to Tu Long: "I'll go down and take a look. I'll leave this place to you."
"Don't worry, Mr. Liang, leave it to me."
Liang Yuan's body was quickly enveloped by a layer of telekinesis, forming a spherical barrier that enveloped him.
Then Liang Yuan jumped into the water and quickly looked under the platform.
I saw plastic boxes of various sizes inlaid and glued around the platform.
Liang Yuan came closer and casually, the plastic box broke into pieces.
The box was indeed hollow, with a huge bulging fish bladder tied inside.
The swim bladder is very large, about 40 cubic centimeters, and is bulging and full of gas.
There are many such fish bladders and boxes under this platform.
It is precisely because of these swim bladders that this thin layer of plastic plates and plastic bottles can float steadily on the water.
"What a wonderful idea. I actually thought of using the buoyancy of the fish's swim bladder to make a floating platform."
Liang Yuan sighed in his heart, as expected, human wisdom is infinite.
Inflate the swim bladder to make a floating platform, so if you expand your thinking, can it also be used to make boats or the like?
Liang Yuan checked the design again and found that after the swim bladder was inflated, the seal was still glued with sea cucumber mucus.
The plastic box outside is a protective measure to prevent underwater mutated creatures from accidentally biting the fish bladder.
This protective measure is a bit rudimentary. The defense of the plastic box is very poor. If it encounters some mutant creatures such as mutant crabs, it can easily cut into pieces of the plastic box and destroy the swim bladder inside.
He immediately returned to the water and saw Li Xiangyang rushing back with the boat.
Under the command of Tu Long, the women and children rescued from Building 87 were sent to the ship one after another.
Soon all the victims in Building 87 were rescued and put on rafts and boats.
Liang Yuan took advantage of the gap to search for usable supplies layer by layer and packed them all into the inventory.
After doing all this, the third transport raft has arrived.
Liang Yuan looked at Yan Congjun, Qi Delong and others, and asked: "How are you guys thinking about it?"
Yan Congjun and others were still hesitating, Qi Delong said: "Mr. Liang, can I go back and discuss it with everyone?"
Liang Yuan nodded and said: "My boat is outside the community and will only wait for you for two hours. We will leave in two hours."
Qi Delong nodded quickly. At this time, a short and thin young man suddenly gritted his teeth and shouted: "Mr. Liang, I want to join you."
When Liang Yuan heard this, he looked at the other party.
Yan Congjun and Qi Delong's expressions changed slightly.
Yan Congjun couldn't help but said: "Li Xiaojun, don't you go back and discuss it with your companions?"
Li Xiaojun looked bitter and sighed: "Uncle Yan, Uncle Qi, we have no way out. Not only have we run out of food, but our people have been eating mutated fish for almost a month, and some of them are already going crazy. ”
"I'm afraid that if I continue like this, I will soon be unable to suppress everyone, and I may end up following Lai Zhiyong's path."
Yan Congjun and Qi Delong's expressions changed, and they realized that the situation in the unit building where Li Xiaojun was located was difficult.
Yan Congjun said: "Xiaojun, how many people are there on your side?"
Li Xiaojun looked sad and said: "A month ago, Aunt Zhang on the 19th floor of our building suddenly awakened on her own, but because she lived alone, no one knew that she had entered the moment of awakening."
"By the time we found out, she had failed to awaken and became a mutated monster."
"You also know that once she becomes a mutated monster, her awakening speed will become very fast, and her strength will also increase very quickly."
"Many people died in our building, and we finally managed to kill her. Now, there are only twelve people left in the building."
Li Xiaojun's words immediately made everyone change their expressions.
Failure to mutate and become a mutated monster is a big stone in everyone's heart.
For ordinary people, they long to awaken and then have powerful superpowers.
But they are worried that if they fail to awaken, they may become terrifying mutant monsters.
For those with superpowers, they are also worried about the emergence of mutated monsters.
Because most mutant monsters have lost their minds and have only instincts and residual memories left, they will choose the fastest way to evolve.
They evolve extremely fast and can even catch up with normal superpowers in a short period of time.
Yan Congjun sighed, patted Li Xiaojun on the shoulder and said, "My condolences."
Li Xiaojun laughed miserably and said: "I have no choice but to go now. Lai Zhiyong is also dead. This time I brought some of the remaining supernatural stone beads to exchange for some rice."
< br>
"Right now... the people in our building really have no way out."
As he said that, he looked at Liang Yuan and said, "Mr. Liang, I want to join the Yangshan Refuge. Please take us in."
Liang Yuan looked at the young man and asked, "How old are you?"
"Twenty-five."
"Can't tell."
Li Xiaojun said helplessly: "I have a baby face and I look young."
Liang Yuan nodded and said: "It's rare that you can maintain relative order in your building during such a difficult time. Since you can become the leader of those people, you must have some abilities."
"What is your power?"
Li Xiaojun said honestly: "I am a fire attribute user, and because of my ability, I can also make fires for cooking and save fuel, so everyone gives me face and listens to my words."
Liang Yuan smiled, of course this was a self-effacing statement.
Fire attribute users are much stronger in combat than ordinary power and speed users.
After all, one is a physical attack and the other is a magic attack.
If Li Xiaojun can become the boss of a building, he must be able to convince the public with his special abilities.
Otherwise, just by being able to light a fire and save fuel, it would not be enough for everyone to listen to him.
Liang Yuan asked: "Do you have a raft?" Li Xiaojun nodded quickly: "Yes, even if we don't have anything to make a fire, we don't dare to burn wooden floors and plastic boards. We have already started making rafts, waiting for the day when we can no longer survive. Okay, let’s take a raft and leave Sunshine New City.”
Liang Yuan nodded: "Then you go back, let your people take the raft, and go to you outside Sunshine New City. My boat is outside. When the time comes, you report my name, and the people on the boat will naturally arrange for you."
Li Xiaojun hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Liang, I would like to ask, does your boat have enough space? There are twelve people on my side."
He just watched Liang Yuan's people go back and forth three times and save dozens of women and children.
Liang Yuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, there is still plenty of space, but it will be hard to say in the future."
As he said that, he glanced at Yan Congjun and Qi Delong meaningfully.
The two of them suddenly felt nervous, and then realized the problem of the ship's space!
Sometimes, it’s not whether they are willing to join others, but whether they have room for them to join.
For a time, the dozen or so black marketeers present were a little anxious.
Qi Delong said quickly: "Mr. Liang, you guys talk first, I will go back and discuss it with the people in the building."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Liang Yuan smiled and nodded slightly.
Then Yan Congjun and other businessmen said goodbye to Liang Yuan one after another and hurried back to the building where they were.
Liang Yuan also got on the raft and headed towards the Flamingo with Fu Qibo and Tu Long.
On the raft, Fu Qibo couldn't help but said: "Mr. Liang, do you really have a shelter?"
Liang Yuan glanced at him: "Why, you don't believe it?"
"No, no, no, it's not that I don't believe it, I'm just a little shocked. Everyone has been trapped in the flood for so long. Some buildings even have trouble making rafts. You actually built a shelter in Yangshan. It's really shocking. Amazed.”
Liang Yuan smiled faintly: "Everything depends on people. If you don't do it, you will never succeed. Some of them have already made rafts, but they are afraid of floods and dare not travel."
"In fact, the further we delay, the worse it will be for them."
"As the flood continues to spread and the water level continues to rise, there will be more and more terrifying mutant creatures under the flood. Those giant deep-sea mutant beasts from the ocean will soon fall with the ocean currents."
< br>
"By that time, it will be difficult for them to leave."
Liang Yuan's words immediately made Fu Qibo couldn't help but get excited and said, "Do you think so too?"
"I think so too. I have warned Lai Zhiyong a long time ago, but he didn't listen to me at all."
"There are countless mutated beasts in the flood. If you go out, you are seeking death."
"Now he lives in the building. He is the boss of Building 87. He has food to eat and women to serve him. He has never thought about what will happen in the future."
"I warned him long ago when the flood only reached the tenth floor and asked him to find a way to make a raft or a boat. We must escape to higher ground as soon as possible."
"But he actually wanted to occupy the 32nd and 31st floors."
"This bastard, in the end, when the heavy rain continued and the flood reached the twentieth floor, he hurriedly made a small raft."
"Still hiding on the roof of the building, ready to abandon everyone here and escape alone."
"It's a shame that the turbine engine I worked so hard to research was actually installed on such a small raft."
When Fu Qibo talked about this, his teeth itched with hatred.
The turbine engine he had worked so hard to study was not taken seriously by Lai Zhiyong. Instead, those murderous weapons were regarded as treasures by the other party.
In the end, he could only be forced by Lai Zhiyong to become the opponent's puppet tool for developing more supernatural weapons.
When Liang Yuan heard this, he suddenly asked: "Can you improve the turbine engine?"
Fu Qibo was stunned and couldn't help but ask: "Where can we improve?"
Liang Yuandao: "The kinetic energy has increased."
Fu Qibo quickly said: "Of course, you can see that the turbine on our little raft was actually made by me using the leftover mutant beast bones on hand, which are all smaller types of bones."
"If you enlarge it proportionally, you can imagine that its kinetic energy will definitely increase a lot."
"Of course, the strength of kinetic energy does not depend on the size of the turbine, but also on the energy source."
"Currently, I have embedded several superpower stone beads inside the turbine. If I want to increase the kinetic energy and battery life, I will need a large number of superpower stone beads."
"The bigger the turbine, the more power stone beads are needed. As you know, power stone beads are very precious and difficult to obtain. So although the idea of a large turbine is wonderful, it needs to be realized. Very difficult.”
Liang Yuan smiled: "What if the energy problem is solved?"
"It will be simple. When the turbine is designed to be larger, more runes can be designed on the bone plate pages, so that they can be used more efficiently."
"Among the seven types of runes I currently have, only the violent rune is more suitable for use on turbines."
"But I remember that there is a kind of mutant cuttlefish. They have the ability to spray ink, which can be used as a means of attack and as a means of accelerating escape."
"If the relevant runes can be found in this mutant beast, the turbine can be further upgraded, and perhaps a jet turbine can be made."
When talking about this aspect, Fu Qibo seemed extremely talkative, talking endlessly about his various ideas.
Liang Yuan kept nodding his head. The more he looked at Fu Qibo, the more satisfied he became.
This guy is definitely a proper R&D talent.
If we put him back in Yangshan and let him tinker as much as he likes, I'm afraid he might be able to tinker with something useful to Yangshan.
"Show me the other rune bones you got." Liang Yuan interrupted his rambling words.
When Fu Qibo heard this, he was a little hesitant and a little reluctant to give up.
But after looking at Liang Yuan's indifferent expression, he obediently took out a cloth bag from his arms.
There was a crashing sound from the cloth pocket, which was the sound of bones colliding.
Liang Yuan took the bag and poured out the rune bones.
There are seven pieces in total, and each piece of rune bone has a different shape.
Two of them are flat and square, obviously human skulls.
Not surprisingly, this was obtained from the skull of a human with superpowers.
Liang Yuan noticed that the runes on the two skulls were white and blue respectively.
He asked: "Have you studied these two runes?"
Fu Qibo nodded quickly: "There are three human rune bones in this. These two are skulls. The white one is the skull of a person with spiritual powers, and the blue one is the skull of a person with water attributes."< br>
"The runes on these two skulls represent two skills respectively."
"I haven't been able to research the spiritual rune bone skills because I haven't found a suitable superpower stone bead and can't activate the rune skills on it."
"I have studied the blue water attribute rune bone. It is a [water shield] skill. I once designed a shield using this rune."
Liang Yuan looked through it and found a triangular flat bone with a pair of red runes on it.
"Is it this piece?" Liang Yuan looked at Fu Qibo and asked.
Fu Qibo nodded quickly: "Yes, that's it. This is the [violent energy] rune, which is the shoulder blade of a power user at that time."
Liang Yuan nodded slightly, put away the rune bone, and looked at the other rune bones.
The remaining pieces are all from the bones of mutated beasts.
Suddenly, one of the black rune bones attracted Liang Yuan's attention.
