Chapter 353 Large Greenhouse
With the establishment of the Duplex Union, some of the atmosphere in Chernobog City has also changed unconsciously.
For this city, of course it is not just workers and engineers who want to speak out. Small businessmen, factory owners and other classes or groups all hope to have a channel to express their voices so that their voices can be heard. Able to get in front of Purficott and express the demands of his group.
This is an understandable requirement, but not every group has such an opportunity.
Or to put it another way, not every group has enough size or strength for Perfectcott to notice them and be willing to listen to their demands.
Of course, businessmen and factory owners naturally united. They thought that since workers and engineers could form joint associations, they might as well.
And they do not think that those mud-legged workers and workers can have more powerful power and influence than they, the capitalists who control the means of production and capital, and the establishment of their federation should be a sure thing.
Even if it is necessary to leave a position and sufficient power for the representatives sent by the Lord's Palace, in their opinion, being able to convey their demands directly to Perfectcott is completely worth the effort.
However, what everyone did not expect was that the merchants and factory owners’ application to establish a joint association was rejected, and the lord’s palace did not approve their union.
This has puzzled many people. They don’t understand why the Lord’s Mansion has blocked them in this regard.
Some people tried to seek explanations from Purficott, and others tried to mobilize their influence to do something, but to Purficott, none of this made any sense.
She was staying in the back garden of the Lord's Mansion, watching a group of workers building a huge glass greenhouse.
This is the latest achievement of the Eagle Beak Research Base. It is a cold-proof facility used to survive the cold winter in the north. It can theoretically withstand a low temperature of minus 60 degrees, and with heating, it will This extreme temperature will be lowered by another thirty degrees.
But this is already the limit. After all, if it gets colder, the oxygen and carbon dioxide in the air will begin to condense. This level of low temperature has exceeded the imagination of humans in this era.
However, for Purficott, this can only be considered usable, but not sufficient.
In the face of the extreme cold that can freeze the earth's core, even Purficott is not sure how alarming the temperature of the entire earth's surface will reach by then.
But no matter what, this technology has now been invented, and large greenhouses also play a vital role in dealing with the doomsday crisis. She still attaches great importance to this matter, and at least it must be The technology is tested to ensure it is up to the task of providing crops to shelters during the apocalyptic cold.
However, Purficott still did not directly announce his ideas. He just ordered people to transform the back garden of the Lord's Mansion into a huge greenhouse. At the same time, he sent a letter to Langton University, entrusting them with the task. Start collecting the seeds of plants and animals that can be collected in this world and transport them to the north.
In fact, this matter had already begun two years ago, but at that time Purficott was still a baroness and was only responsible for the Arctic scientific research project. This matter can only be regarded as a fault between her and Lang. Private research collaborations between Dayton universities.
But now, after holding great power and becoming an important minister of the empire who is responsible for this matter, this matter is no longer just a scientific research project, but an important administrative order for the empire.
Not only did the colonial governments take action under the orders of the Langton Empire Center, but each university also received sponsorship from the royal family or nobles, forming scientific expedition teams to collect animal and plant samples and seeds all over the world, and then Transported to the North. For this reason, Purficott also specially approved a project to build a seed bank further north of Eagle Beak Cliff to ensure that if the doomsday crisis can be solved in the future, humans will still have the opportunity to rebuild the earth's ecology.
Of course, this also has another purpose, which is to ensure the material output that the shelter can obtain under the doomsday.
After all, in the apocalypse, if there are only potatoes, mushrooms, cockroaches and mice, although people will not starve to death, they will soon become depressed after eating these.
Although this is not a problem, even for ordinary people in the empire, this kind of day is not much different from their daily life, but considering the pressure on people's hearts under the threat of doomsday, Perfico I still don’t want these people at the lowest level to be unable to even have a decent meal.
Therefore, it is very important to collect these plant seeds and animal samples and build greenhouses to cultivate crops and raise animals in the future.
However, it is not yet time for the empire to prepare to announce the end of the world, so Purficott can only operate on his own garden first.
Just looking at the garden under construction, the old housekeeper's face felt a little distressed. After all, this garden took a lot of effort to take care of, and suddenly it was a mess due to the construction. It feels uncomfortable to have someone step on the floor you just mopped with dirty feet.
But the old butler also understood what Purficott’s plan was, so he only felt sorry for it and would not want to stop it.
He said that Perfecticot's housekeeper was also her guardian knight, and he could clear all obstacles for her when she was in need.
Let alone a garden, even if Perficott asked him to destroy a city, the old butler would only obey his orders.
"Grandpa Afu, have you recalled the old people from your previous family? How do you plan to arrange the family members?" Purficott asked Foster about the previous arrangements.
Although she doesn't care much about these things, since she has agreed with the old housekeeper to do these things, she naturally still has to ask and care about them.
Faced with Purficott's inquiry, the old butler replied: "I have sent a telegram to Brandless Manor and sent someone back to Longton. Everything is going well so far. I am willing to come to the North. There are many people living in the border area, but only a small number of old people want to stay and guard the ancestral land for the family.
After all, the Brandlis family has lived on this land for generations. Your grandfather and you. My parents are buried in the family cemetery, and they need someone to guard them.”
"Can the grave be moved?" Purficott didn't say much, and just asked the old housekeeper a question that seemed to be rebellious.
"They have been buried in peace. Miss, you should not disturb their sleep." The old housekeeper said very tactfully, and also said: "The real foundation of the Brandless family is people, and it is you, miss." . The family’s ancestral land and the tombs of our ancestors only tell you where we come from, what is really important is where you are going.”
