After the greenhouse successfully grows food.

The top leaders of the Snow tribe canceled the plan to invade the south, and turned to vigorously developing the productive forces of their own tribe and carrying out a large-scale production campaign.

Zhou Ming became the head of the agricultural department, and fully guided the agricultural development of the Snow Clan.

There are tens of billions of Snow Clan strong men, which can be called by Zhou Ming.

In addition, in order to refine enough translucent glass, the two elders of the Snow Clan, Ulu and Kamon, also became Zhou Ming's subordinates, helping to refine glass every day.

Even the Ice and Snow Saintess herself went into battle in person, and with a wave of her hand, she raised tens of millions of tons of sand and stones, and when she landed, it turned into millions of pieces of glass......

This shows the importance that the Ice and Snow Saintess attaches to agricultural work.

In addition, under the snowy area, there are many places where there is a black ore that can be burned and heated, similar in nature to coal, and the reserves are very large, which can fully meet the heating needs of greenhouses, so that the logging team does not have to risk being killed by human patrols to go to the south to cut down a large number of trees.

"Trees can't grow on the snow, how can there be coal underground?"

This question popped up in Zhou Ming's mind.

You must know that the geological activities of the Lingyuan Continent are not very active, first of all, there are no conditions for the formation of coal, such as Wancheng Kingdom and Dongyuan Kingdom, there has not been a single coal mine found in the two countries, indicating that most of the trees have been decomposed by microorganisms before they have entered the depths of the ground.

This proves that coal mines are unlikely to exist elsewhere as well.

What does it mean that there are a lot of coal mines in the snowy region?

At least two things are illustrated.

A. Tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years ago, this place was still very warm, and there were a large number of cold-resistant trees, but then due to the colder climate, the ice and snow raged, and all the trees withered.

Second, because of the cover of ice and snow, the ancient plants were incompletely decomposed by anaerobic microorganisms under the thick snow and turned into coal, thus making the snowy area the only area where a large amount of coal resources could be buried in the entire continent.

That's a big deal!

With so many coal resources, the Snow Clan can be said to have plugged in the wings of take-off, will no longer be bothered by energy problems, and can develop rapidly no matter what field.

"The sun is getting colder, and the snow is moving south...... I didn't feel it obviously. ”

The Ice and Snow Saintess was very surprised and a little excited by Zhou Ming's conclusion, but she didn't quite agree.

She had lived for millions of years, and she had the impression that the snowy area had always been so large that there had been no significant southward shift, and the twelve suns had not changed much, and the light had not weakened.

"I guess it has something to do with the carbon dioxide in the air composition. ”

"In ancient times, sparsely populated and plants were everywhere, which absorbed a lot of carbon dioxide, which led to a decrease in carbon dioxide concentration, a drop in temperature, and a southward shift in snowy areas. ”

"After the snow is covered, the snow and ice reflect a lot of sunlight, the surface receives less heat, the temperature drops again, and the snow continues to move south......"

"In this way, there are a lot of coal resources on top of the snowy region. ”

Zhou Ming thought about it for a moment and came to a conclusion that might be closer to the answer.

Because the earth in the real world, during the ice age, the sea near the equator, even froze, which has the reason for the decrease in solar activity, but the earth itself, is not without its problems.

"What is carbon dioxide?"

The Ice and Snow Saintess asked again, the human man in front of her, when talking to her, there were always fresh words one after another, which aroused her strong curiosity.

"This is a substance in the air, and it is also the main product released after coal combustion, which has a certain thermal insulation effect and can also promote plant growth......

Zhou Ming explained, and the Ice and Snow Saintess nodded again and again, and even suddenly realized.

Zhou Ming, who found that under the snow region, there are a large number of coal resources, has a new plan for the future development path of the Snow Clan.

The Snow Clan does not have to invade the human world, and does not have to occupy the land of the warm zone.

The snow region is the place where the heavens gave the Snow people to rise.

One, a large amount of ice and snow materials in the snow region, can develop countless "concentrating ice valleys" and establish countless vegetable greenhouses.

Second, a large amount of coal resources can be used to promote industrialization in the snowy region, set up large factories, and produce all the industrial products they need.

Third, after the foundation of industry and agriculture has been laid, it is not impossible to develop education for all, promote the cultivation of all people, and establish a "country of ten thousand times" in the snowy region.

Finally, the "Psionic Industrial Revolution" will be implemented to achieve a comprehensive transformation, and a snow empire on ice will be built successfully!

Zhou Ming has estimated: it will take about 100 years to complete.

And a hundred years is not very long for Zhou Ming.

But......

He came to the Snow Land this time, not to help the Snow Clan build any "Snow Empire", but to make a breakthrough in cultivation.

How is it possible to plant a field for a hundred years in a row?

The Snow Clan is strong, what are the obvious benefits for him?

After all, he is an outsider, a foreign race, and it is impossible for him to fully integrate into the Snow Clan.

It was enough for him to help the Snow Clan get out of the more embarrassing living situation.

After the Snow Clan's eating problem is solved, he will not use all his wisdom for other problems.

As for whether the Snow Clan will continue to go south and invade the human world, in his heart, he will not stop it.

……

Five years later.

The vigorous large-scale agricultural production activities of the Snow Tribes have basically come to an end.

Although it has paid a great cost of manpower and material resources, 50 million "Concentrated Ice Valleys", greenhouses with a total area of nearly 5 billion acres, and the annual output of grain and vegetables are enough to meet the needs of tens of billions of Snow Clan strong men.

However, compared with the vast snowy area, the population of more than 500 billion Snow tribes only solves the food problem of 10 billion people, which seems to be far from enough.

There are also 98% of the Snow Tribe's population struggling to make ends meet.

In fact, with the mobilization ability of the top level of the Snow Clan, solving the problem of feeding 10 billion people in five years is already quite a remarkable achievement.

Moreover, the Snow people do not only eat food, all kinds of prey in the snow region are their staple food, food and vegetables, which account for less than 20% of their daily diet at most.

In other words, these greenhouses can actually meet the needs of 50 billion Snow Tribes.

With the work efficiency of millions of professional construction teams, the new 10 million "Spotlight Ice Valley" will be added every year in the future, which can meet the needs of 10 billion Snow Tribes.

For a maximum of fifty years, the Snow Tribes can completely solve the problem of food shortage.

This efficiency, in Zhou Ming's eyes, of course, seems relatively low.

But he didn't have a good solution, in the snowy region, the population density of the Snow people was too low to gather, and only when the "war horn" was sounded, all the tribes would desperately gather to the temple and prepare to invade the south.

In the past five years, the large-scale agricultural production activities have also been mainly carried out in the core area of the Snow Tribe, including dozens of giant tribes, covering a population of about 10 billion.

In other words, it only took five years for Zhou Ming to solve the problem of food shortage in the core area.

There is even a huge surplus of food.

In the past five years, in the process of dealing with countless Snow Clan people, Zhou Ming also felt deeply difficult.

Irascible.

Extremely irritable.

The character of the Snow Clan man is like gunpowder, which explodes at one point.

Even if it is a team of about 100 people, the strong men of the Snow Clan in the team have people fighting every day, and their heads are bleeding every day.

If a team of more than 1,000 people is organized, it will basically not be able to do its work, and it will be a fight of onlookers, from morning to night, from a small fight of two or three people to a group fight together, and it will not stop for a moment.

If a team of more than 10,000 people is organized, then there will be deaths every day, one or two deaths are normal, seven or eight deaths are not a big deal, if there are dozens or hundreds of deaths, someone will stop it.

Zhou Ming thought this was incredible, but the high-level leaders of the Snow Clan who followed him didn't care and were accustomed to it, and sometimes rolled up their sleeves and joined the battlefield.

Zhou Ming has stopped countless times, beaten countless people, killed a few in a fit of anger, formulated countless strict laws, and a large number of reward systems, but ...... None of them worked.

Short-tempered, not only a genetic problem of the Snow Clan, but also related to their eating habits, Zhou Ming ate the meat that the Snow Clan people eat daily for a month, and found that his temper began to become irritable.

And it is unlikely that the Snow people will be asked to change their eating habits, which is a tradition they have maintained for hundreds of millions of years.

But without solving the problem of the Snow people's impulsiveness and irritability, it is undoubtedly a fantasy for this race to rise.

What to do?

Zhou Ming racked his brains.

Later, one thing solved his problem.

Wine.

The stronger the wine, the better.

Even as soon as the cap of the wine bottle is opened and the aroma of wine wafts out, those Snow Clan people who are fighting will immediately stop when they smell it, sniff violently, and their eyes become greedy.

As long as Zhou Ming said, "Do you want to drink?" they will become unusually obedient.

In order to drink, they can restrain their hot temper and work hard, without fighting for eight hours in a row.

How can wine be so magical?

It's so magical!

Zhou Ming's winemaking was not a whim, but there was too much grain backlogged in the granary, and it was easy to deteriorate and rot if it was stored for too long, so he set up a winery, got some koji, and began to brew.

He will never forget the day when the ale wine came out of the vat, smelling the wine, at least a hundred thousand Snow Clansmen, gathered around the brewery, densely packed, with longing in their eyes.

As a few brewing vats opened, the aroma of wine overflowed, and even the Ice and Snow Legion soldiers, who were responsible for pulling up the line, couldn't restrain themselves and turned around and threw themselves towards the wine vat!

"Boom Boom~"

"Boom Boom~"

There was an earthquake-like stampede that almost leveled the brewery.

As for the hundreds of vats of liquor brewed, they were eaten by those Snow Clan people without even the distillation process.

Afterwards, at the extremely messy scene, Zhou Ming saw at least a thousand strong men of the Snow Clan lying on the ground crookedly, their faces were serene, their faces flushed, and the corners of their mouths were satisfied smiles......

Zhou Ming felt strange: "99.99% of the Snow Clan people have never drunk alcohol, how can their resistance to alcohol be so weak?

He didn't want to delve into the specific reasons, he had already figured out the lifeblood of the Snow Clan and knew how to deal with them.

After that, when dealing with the affairs of the Snow Clan, Zhou Ming would bring wine with him.

And uttered a famous quote:

"When dealing with the Snow Clan, there's nothing that can't be solved with one bottle of wine, and if there is, then two. ”

The work and reforms launched by Zhou Ming have all been smoothly promoted!

It can be said that the emergence of wine has laid an incomparably solid material foundation for the rise of the Snow Clan.
