There was a pit on the ground about fifty centimeters in diameter, which was supposed to carry pillars, and I climbed up to the mouth of the cave and smelled it and said: It's natural gas!

A villager suddenly ran in a panic and shouted: "Mountain...... Mountain...... Something is pouring out of the ground from the mountain again!

We wouldn't be so lucky, as soon as we said that we were going to extract oil, the oil broke through the surface and gushed out.

Several people quickly ran to the scene, and sure enough, under the surface, it was like a giant dragon flipping its body, and then a thick brown liquid gushed out of the ground, like a mudslide, while breaking through the surface, slowly flowing downward.

Petroleum!

Quick, go down there, build a dam down there, or we'll end up in the village!" I shouted.

Bazihu immediately led the people to the lower ground below, and organized the people to start building an earthen dam to intercept them.

It's unknown how long this will last, but it's important to catch the oil pouring out of the ground below.

Bazihu led people to build fortifications below.

"It's a great time to dig a well here." Sang Yu said.

That's right, the phenomenon of oil breaking through the surface has been going on for several days, and it seems that a lot of oil is hidden in the ground, and if you dig a well, the oil will continue to bubble out of the well.

The craftsmen came to the wood, and there was a large forest on the plains, and the wood was excellent, and the wood was sourced locally, and there was a small river that transported the wood to the vicinity of the site.

The craftsmen built the oil production platform out of wood according to the drawings, and although the platform is a wooden structure, it has incorporated modern knowledge of mulberry elm, and its function is also complex.

Now it was necessary to build a glass factory and a metallurgical yard, all of which were built together with Sangyu's laboratory, right next to the river, which had the advantage of being able to transport a lot of materials by boat, and the river water provided a cooling system for the experiments and production that Sangyu was about to take place.

Natural gas was extracted from a hole, and the oil that broke through the surface was held back behind an earthen dam, both of which, along with the coal from the open-pit coal mine, facilitated the construction of production.

Metallurgical convenience for burning energy no longer relies on cutting wood, but instead of coal.

During the construction of these factories, Sangyu and I conducted an investigation in Jishi Mountain, and we found that Jishi Mountain not only has oil fields and coal mines, but also a large amount of metal ore in the surrounding area.

Time is running out for the land to freeze, and the villagers are all involved in the construction, and some are even involved in the excavation of metal mines, after all, their ancestors have lived here and have some knowledge of the geology.

Before the cold winter arrived, the metallurgical plant and glass plant were completed, and the oil field extraction platform was built.

We have to admire the construction technology of the ancients, without the help of modern equipment, can build a lot of great buildings, that is, the oil production platform, all of which are connected by wedges, but the whole platform is unusually firm, the reason is that the construction of the platform makes great use of the stability of the triangle.

The construction of the metallurgical plant was actually very rudimentary, because we did not have large metallurgical equipment, and it was basically the simplest furnace to calcinate the ore.

The first batch of iron ore was transported from the iron ore, and Sang Yu said with great interest: With this batch of iron ore, we can produce the first batch of steel.

I asked: What are you going to do with the first batch of steel?

Sang Yu said: first make a batch of steel pipes, steel pipes are needed to transport oil and gas, and then produce a batch of necessary tools, such as steel tools for mining ore, so that we can continue to mine ore with high efficiency.

"The idea is very good, there are too many things we need at the moment, but we still have to take it step by step, I think after our steel production is sufficient, we must invest in the production of muskets, at the moment the Shu army is full of cold weapons, if we can arm the soldiers with muskets, then it will be easy to fight against Miss Suppression's army of the dead."

Sang Yu said: You want a headshot?

"That's right!"

……

Puffs of black smoke came out from the chimney above the glass factory, and the black smoke slowly drifted into the sky.

Sang Yu held his chin and looked at the black smoke coming out of the chimney of the glass factory and said blankly: The first batch of glass products is about to come out.

The first batch of glass products are basically laboratory utensils needed in the laboratory, including which milliliter cups, heating tubes and so on.

The production of glass products was successful, but Sang Yu was not very happy, her eyes kept looking at the black smoke coming from the chimney, and after a long time, she said: Industry, this is industry!

"Yes, this is industry, we brought the fire of the industrial revolution to the three countries in advance, according to this historical process, China's industry will surpass other countries a few years ago."

Sang Yu shook her head, she pointed to the black smoke and said: Industry has brought pollution to the environment, if large-scale industrial production is carried out here, then, in the near future, the river water and air here will be seriously polluted.

There are two sides to everything, pros and cons, and in the process of human development, the technological development brought about by war is far higher than that of others.

"This is the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and if the river water is polluted, it will upset the ecological balance."

Sang Yu thinks too much, industrial production is like this, pollution is inevitable, if you want to live without pollution, it is impossible, if we want to live in the original ecological environment without pollution at all, it may have to travel back to ancient times.

What's more, many substances in the universe are radioactive, to a certain extent, such as gamma rays in the universe, which are also very harmful to the human body, which is also a kind of pollution, and the existence of some pollutants is inevitable and reasonable, and none of us can do anything about it.

Could it be that someone can change the universe?

I said, "Don't think about it so much, we only produce muskets, and once we get our hands on Miss Suppression's ancient artifact and destroy it, then we will destroy all these industrial facilities and return a blue sky here."

Sang Yu turned his face to look at me and said, "Industrial pollution will bring cancer to people here!!

I haven't thought about this question, I just know that if there is industry on the plain under Jishi Mountain, then the villagers are about to face a new life, their production level will be greatly improved, and their source of heat will be natural gas.

The standard of living will also be greatly improved, and the traditional production mode of the past will be gradually banned.

But this is entirely my own opinion, Sang Yu said: Do you think that when there is industry here, their lives will become happy?

I nodded and said, "I think so."

Sang Yu turned his face again, looked at the factories below and said: "That's what you think, if there is no industry here, and as far as they are concerned, they have never seen industry, then they will live in peace and contentment in this land, grateful to God for giving them a fertile plain, so that there will be a good harvest of grain, so that they will not be hungry."

I didn't know what Sang Yu was trying to say, so I didn't say anything in between.

"It's a life, a life of isolation, they are happy without modern industry, and only electrified modern life can bring happiness to human beings, which is a wrong view."

I scratched my head, I didn't expect Sang Yu, who was immersed in studying all day, to have such a high consciousness.

Indeed, it cannot be said that the life of burning firewood and stewing in an iron pot must be happier than the life of the full banquet of the Han Dynasty every day, the kind of life without contention with the world, maybe it is the real life, we said before that greed, yes, the pursuit of too many life requirements, in fact, it is also a kind of greed, the living conditions have been greatly improved, hehe, what has been greatly improved, how much has it been raised, human beings can satisfy themselves, and said that today's living standards have reached my satisfaction.
