Chapter 124

[Chapter 124 Oil Press]

The canyon has always been highly valued by Zhao Hai, and it was determined by Zhao Hai as the most stable rear base except for space.

The terrain of the gorge is very hidden, and the mountains on all sides also block the cold wind. It is not difficult to add water sources. There are also two ways to communicate with the outside, which can be said to be very convenient and more suitable for people to live in.

Zhao Hai believes that he will have more and more subordinates in the future, and the area of the black soil wasteland, as long as he has the strength, can completely build a small principality here. Those people still have to go out to build villages.

However, before he had enough strength to build a country, Zhao Hai could only build a small village here in the canyon as a pilot to see if there were any problems that needed to be improved to facilitate the establishment of larger villages in the future.

However, the land in the canyon has not yet been truly improved, and it is not the time to establish a village. Zhao Hai only has such an idea now.

Three days passed quickly, Zhao Hai and the others are almost ready here, and now they are waiting for Laura and the others to bring the oil press, and then they can let Green go to Casa City.

At noon on the third day, the Machidel family’s motorcade arrived at the foot of the Rocky Mountain. This time, Laura did not come forward, but Green did. It was to put on the five carriages originally bought by Green on the mountain, send the radishes down the mountain, and then pull the oil press that Laura helped to buy into the car.

In addition to the five oil presses, the Machidel family also gave Green two hundred gold coins and a set of books. This set of books is a collection of animals and plants on the mainland, written by a pharmacist in the mainland. Yes, this set of books is a gift from Laura to Zhao Hai.

The last time Zhao Hai told Laura that he had some research on plants, and he was planning to open a ranch. Laura wanted to form an alliance with Zhao Hai. Of course, he would not let go of such an opportunity, so he bought it. This set of books was given to Zhao Hai.

This set of books is rarely seen on the mainland. In order to write this book, the alchemist spent 20 hours collecting a large number of animals and plants on the mainland, and visited many alchemists and alchemists. In the end, I went to many places to study those animals and plants, and finally wrote this book.

Because this set of books is not a magic book, there are not many printed books, usually only some alchemists or alchemists have a set.

In addition to giving 10,000 catties of radishes to the Machidel family, Zhao Hai and the others also had 110 fire diced fish, which were all promised by Zhao Hai to Laura. A gift from the sea to Laura.

The oil presses that Laura sent to Zhao Hai were not very large. The top five oil presses were installed in only five carriages. When they went back, they could just put the radishes away.

Green didn’t bother, he pulled the five oil presses to the mountain, and he didn’t unload the car when he got there, and then let Zhao Hai even put the carriage into the space.

The arrival of these oil presses was beyond Zhao Hai’s expectations. There is an instruction manual that instructs you how to arrange the oil presses. This makes Zhao Hai very puzzled. He really doesn’t understand. what’s the situation.

They say that there is no science here. Their alchemy and alchemy are all related to science. They say that there is no machine civilization here. Oil presses like this are also very sophisticated in design. There is magic and fighting spirit that are not found on earth, so Zhao Hai really doesn’t know what to say.

After receiving the oil press and 200 gold coins, Zhao Hai and the others went directly to Tieshanbao and installed the oil press in the packed warehouses.

To say that this oil press is really well designed. It is more than three meters high in total. The top is a feeding barrel, which is very large. The bottom is a thing like a grinding disc. Put on the Warcraft and pull it. Below is an oil outlet. This oil outlet can be pulled out with a pipe, and the oil can be directly discharged from here, and the other is the oil residue outlet.

It seems to be very simple, but the battlefield area of the entire machine is more than 20 square meters, and the volume is not too small. However, the oil press can be disassembled and can be disassembled into several parts, otherwise, a carriage will also be Can’t pull it down.

Zhao Hai took a look. The feeding port is too high from the ground. If you want to add ingredients, there are only two ways. One is to put some boards next to the feeding port to form a slope. People can directly Push the trolley to the feeding port for feeding, another method is to use a conveyor belt.

Using a conveyor belt is a relatively easy way. You can directly load the avocados on the conveyor belt below, and then send them to the feeding port through the conveyor belt.

There is no conveyor belt designed for this kind of oil press. I am afraid that no one on this continent uses it. This conveyor belt was used in some grain depots that Zhao Hai saw on the earth, so he thought of it.

The method of laying the board is commonly used in this continent, and some people dig a big hole directly on the ground, and then put the oil press in the hole, so that the material can be added on the ground, but after the material is discharged, Zhao Hai doesn’t want to use this method to transport oil drums from the pit. In that case, he would have to dig a pit in the castle. That is not an easy task. The ground here is all stone. If you want to dig a hole, you have to lift up all the stones, and in that case, even the house will have to be demolished.

Zhao Hai still wants to make a conveyor belt. It is not difficult to make a conveyor belt, and the required power can also be obtained directly from the oil press. Need some revamp though.

Fortunately, the whole body of this oil press is made of metal. If you want to transform it, you only need to add some metal parts on it.

But here comes the problem. Among Zhao Hai and the others, none of them can know a blacksmith. If he really wants to make a conveyor belt, he has to find a blacksmith, and the ability of this blacksmith is not too high. weak.

Zhao Hai did not know until he asked Greene. Although there are many machines on the mainland that can be powered by magic spar, such a simple machine that can only squeeze fruit oil is really unworthy. Using magic spar as power, I am afraid that the money he squeezed out to sell the oil will not be able to buy magic spar, so this kind of machine is generally only designed to be water-powered, wind-powered or animal-powered.

Since there is no way to make a conveyor belt, they can only build boards. Fortunately, they don’t lack boards now, but they don’t have a cart to transport oil fruit, nor do they have a wooden barrel. Green has to go to Casa City to buy it.

Green also knew about this situation. He immediately left for Casa City, and Zhao Hai started to build the boards for these oil presses at Tieshanbao. The water source in the city is very convenient. Zhao Hai was directly outside these oil pressing factories, and asked An and the others to build a huge stone pool to wash the oil fruit, and then transport the oil fruit to the house. It is sent to the oil press through the erected board.

The water in the pool is always flowing, so there is no need to change the water. The small hairs on the oil fruit can also become fish food if they flow into the moat.

However, Zhao Hai also calculated that an oil press requires at least one person to feed the material, and one person to watch the oil and oil residue. If the person who cleans the oil fruit is also counted, then at least four people are needed, five sets The oil press requires a minimum of twenty people to complete.

Zhao Hai is not worried about the manpower. Zhao Hai does not want to use those slaves to work in this kind of oil extraction plant, because this kind of oil extraction plant has to work 24 hours a day. If all the slaves are used, at least three That is to say, if those slaves are used, at least 60 people are needed to ensure the normal operation of this oil extraction plant. Zhao Hai has only a total of more than 100 people in his hands. An oil plant is obviously impossible, so Zhao Hai decided to use undead to make this oil plant.

Twenty human-shaped undead creatures are responsible for feeding and producing oil, but Zhao Hai wanted to use the scaly wildebeest to pull the animal power of the oil-pressing force.

It’s not that Zhao Hai doesn’t want to use other undead creatures to replace the scaly wildebeest, but that there is no suitable one. The undead creatures he collected last time were all from the carrion swamp. Not only are they huge, but these undead creatures It is not suitable for pulling things. The force to push this oil press does not need to be too large, but it must be stable. It is naturally impossible to pull the oil press with a huge body like the alien, like that kind of big mouse. For the smaller ones, their forward speed was not stable, and there was no way to do it, so in the end Zhao Hai still wanted to use the scaly horns to pull the oil press.

Zhao Hai doesn’t have many adult scale-horned horses now, but it’s enough. Zhao Hai has already planned. If it doesn’t work, he will kill a few scale-horned horses, and then turn these scale-horned horses into undead. creature, that solves the problem.

Zhao Hai is here now that everything is ready, as long as Green buys back all the things they have applied, they can officially start work.

The start of the oil mill is not a trivial matter. As long as the oil mill starts, they can get another stable source of income. At the same time, they will have the high-quality feed such as oil residue, and their rabbit farm can also be used. Once it is done, they will have another stable source of income, which is really important to the current Buda family.
