CHAPTER 24 CHALLENGES Papermaking Difficulties and Selling Wood

"Ark, we may have a problem now."

After the China Unicom video, Rong Lie's first words made Fang Lie refreshed.

"You have also seen the disaster situation. Almost all our water resources, animal resources, and forest resources have been destroyed. Although minerals were discovered in disguise, it will take a certain amount of time to establish a mining system."

Fang Ark nodded and said that he would let Rong Lie continue.

"In terms of disaster resistance, you have done a good job in reducing casualties. Now the materials have been allocated to the people in need. Many people think that you deserve it as the regional chief."

"I've been awarded too much, I've made a small contribution."

Fang Zhou smiled humbly and then asked, "Rong Lie, are you in a good state today? You don't speak so troughly."

"Well, it's because of this problem," Rong Lie sighed. "The environment has been destroyed so much that many people can't find anything to do for a moment."

"Just as the current situation, district-to-district trade has begun. They not only hope that they can do something, but also hope that our district can have a powerful product to occupy the market that still has vacant."

"Compared to the iron ore that I don't know when I can use it, now everyone needs something that can make them feel at ease and consume their energy."

"You are the only one who can take them out of their confusion."

Fang Ark nodded and understood what Rong Lie meant. His words suddenly turned around and made Fang Ark feel strange.

There are two problems.

The first problem is that after the environment was destroyed, many people had nothing to do and began to wander. Rong Lie was worried that something would happen if this continued.

The second problem is that after the district-to-district trade begins, my area has not yet been able to take out the goods to seize the market. It is like a large plate of cakes placed in front of me, but I can't eat them. Although not many people understand economics, everyone is educated after all, and they all know that if they want to go like this, their area's economy will develop slowly than other areas.

If you are slow, you will fall behind, and if you are behind, you will be beaten!

No matter which problem is urgently solved, and if it is not solved well, it will also expose the Ark's own incompetence.

Relatively, if solved, the Ark can consolidate its position and become a veritable leader of the entire region.

"I understand, I will solve it."

Ark nodded, and he expressed his willingness to accept the challenge.

After disconnecting from communication, Zhong Xiaonan's voice came from behind him.

"Do you feel the responsibility is heavy?"

"Don't worry, I can't crush me."

Fang Ark looked around and found it was in a mess. It was indeed impossible to do either hunting or building.

"Even if you want to farm, you have to remove the big wood in the soil first."

Fang Ark sighed, and suddenly, this was something that everyone could do.

Not many people are willing to just ask everyone to clean up the wood, but if we say it another way, such as "reclaiming fertile land", it might be much better.

"This only solves one problem, and it is not safe enough. After all, the water flow has been cut off, so we have to reopen the water flow, or some people go to the water source to get water, and some people go to clean up the site."

"But this cannot be avoided. The blocked water flow must be opened. Is there any choice that can match the current situation? It would be great if there are any products that can be used locally and everyone needs them, just like toilet paper is inseparable."

Suddenly, Fang Ark realized that he had said a key word.

"toilet paper!"

He looked at Zhong Xiaonan and raised his tone: "Zhong Xiaonan, do you know how toilet paper is made?"

"I know, the method was invented by our ancestors, the famous Cai Lun papermaking technique."

Zhong Xiaonan was a little confused: "Why are you asking this?"

"Look at these around you."

Following the ark's meaning, Zhong Xiaonan looked around, and suddenly, she realized something.

"Materials! These are ready-made materials! Even cutting off!"

"That's right!"

The two hit it off.

"Making paper is not difficult, and materials are everywhere. The process of obtaining materials is the process of leveling the land."

"However, if you make paper, you may be missing something important."

Zhong Xiaonan stretched out his finger and pointed around: "Where are you looking for sodium hydroxide?"

Ark was stunned.

"Sodium hydroxide, or alkali, to put it more simply, where is the limestone around you?"

Zhong Xiaonan asked: "This is the only difficulty in the papermaking process. Although it can be traded, even the materials for regional specialties rely on imports, which is equivalent to handing over the lifeline to others. What do you plan to do?"

The ark thought for a while and limestone might be found in the mine veins, but mining still requires some preparation.

"It's true that papermaking should be put back, so use the easiest way to seize the market."

Fang Ao walked to a broken tree, put his hand on it, and with a thought, the tree entered his backpack lattice.

"Are you ready?"

"I want to sell wood directly. I have just grown up in areas that require wood and historical materials, so I can't do it. The cuts in other areas are as fast as I can pick up."

Zhong Xiaonan nodded: "It's really simple and crude."

Fang Zhou said: "Xiaonan, you can continue to study the generator. It is best to come up with a feasible solution before the river is opened."

Fang Ark didn't want Zhong Xiaonan to discover the secret of his printer, so he planned to send her away.

"learn."

Zhong Xiaonan got off Xiao Hui's back, patted Xiao Hui's head, and walked back to the cave by himself.

The ventilation system was destroyed by mudslides, and the cave was no longer able to live in it. However, her design draft was still in the cave, so she had to go back.

When Zhong Xiaonan went to the cave, Fang Ark breathed a sigh of relief.

"Core, return the current power."

"27%, the printer needs 15%, the printer needs a battery, and the extra cost of 5%, what do you think?"

"3%. The battery does not require power, just charge the solar energy. At present, it must be used as a trick."

Fang Ark was not surprised that the core guessed his thoughts. He knew that this core was far more powerful than he thought, and was now limited by insufficient energy.

After throwing the printer in place, he put on his armor and began to pick up wood around him.

He found that as the regional chief, he had a separate store in the trading market, and could temporarily store the items to be traded.

Unlike backpack grids, the trading warehouse has no grids, or there is only one grid, which shows that it has a size of one hundred cubic meters.

No matter how big the wood is, how many parts are stuck in the mud and sand, as long as they are touched by the ark, they will be taken into the trading warehouse.

Not only that, he also called on some people to help. Although everyone didn't know what Fang Ark was going to do, he was idle anyway.

An hour later, Ark opened the trading warehouse, and the value in the lower right corner showed that more than ten tons had accumulated and it was still increasing.

He nodded with satisfaction and opened the district-to-district trading market in the trading market. There are also some wood for sale here. The general price is 20 kilograms of wood for one kilogram of food or one kilogram of fresh water. He remembered that when he saw it, one kilogram of food was benchmarking half a kilogram of water, and the water was depreciating.

After observing the prices in most areas, he put the wood in the warehouse on the shelves.
