Chapter 112: Resource Discussion
If you look at it on the surface, Xiao Shi's words are indeed not bad at all, and the convenience of burning a fire compared to his life is not worth mentioning at all. But if you consider the environment of this small island, you have to do it.
Before Tang Ming came to the island, there was no man-made destruction here, all kinds of animals thrived here, and the ecosystem was balanced. But now that nearly 10,000 people have poured in all of a sudden, the island's resources will certainly not be able to meet the demand, and it will be too late to wait until the ecological damage is remedied.
In the crowd present, Fang Xiaoru's figure appeared at the back, he rushed over as soon as he heard the news, and just happened to hear Xiao Shi's question. In his opinion, what Xiao Vulgar said was not wrong at all, Tang Ming did make this thing a bit of a snake. Looking at Tang Ming's frowning and contemplative look at this time, Fang Xiaoru smiled proudly.
He wanted to see what Tang Ming could do to answer this question, and impulsively stepped forward to question if he would do this kind of reckless and stupid practice again. The last questioning made him feel embarrassed, and this time he saw Tang Ming being stumped, for some reason, Fang Xiaoru felt a sense of revenge in his heart.
Tang Ming's contemplation was not in embarrassment, on the contrary, after a moment he said with a smile: "Xiao Shi, your words really sound nothing to fault at first glance, but you have to think deeply. This small island is only so big, and all the resources in all aspects are only what you see, if we outsiders don't pay attention and destroy the ecosystem, then do you think this small island can let you squander it for a few years? ”
Xiao Shu still didn't understand Tang Ming's words, and there were a few professional terms that only belonged to modern times, which made him scratch his head. Fortunately, he can almost understand what Tang Ming means, after all, among the nearly 10,000 people, Xiao Ming's thoughts can be regarded as more active by Tang Ming, so naturally he has something surprising.
It's like Fang Xiaoru at this moment, he didn't understand what Tang Ming said just now, what ecosystem? What outsiders? They traveled thousands of miles across the ocean to this deserted island, where no one was there, and the arrival of nearly 10,000 people, even outsiders, became the masters of this place from the moment they landed on this island.
Just like now, Tang Ming and these human beings are not just standing on the land of the island, talking about the future of the island here, if you are not the master, can you control the fate of this island?
For Tang Ming's explanation, he Fang Xiaoru was the first to feel incompatible or unconvinced, despite this, the old fox still couldn't help but keep silent, he was full of wisdom, and he always maintained his due vigilance against all Tang Ming's doubts.
Jiang is still old and spicy, Fang Xiaoru did not stand up to question because he was sure that someone would continue to ask, and this person was Xiao Shi, after thinking about it, he asked again: "Hou Ye's exposition is unfathomable, and his subordinates are really difficult to understand, for example, what is this ecology?" The subordinates don't know, and I hope that Hou Ye can explain it to everyone. ”
Now Tang Ming is embarrassed, if he wants to explain what an ecosystem is, it is estimated that he will have to finish it for a few days and nights. But if you don't make it clear, the people present will definitely not be interested in the biogas they have worked so hard to make. A lot of hard work to be disliked, this is definitely not the result Tang Ming wants.
"At best, this ecology is everything in the world we live in, and at worst, ......."
After a pause, Tang Ming spoke: "It's like everything on this island, the mountains and the water here, all the animals and plants here, and then to the people of us. For example, the forest behind the mountain, do you think it's big? ”
Xiao Shu replied without thinking about it: "It is indeed very large, together with the mountain we see, this forest occupies half of the island's land. ”
Nodding, Tang Ming asked again, "Then do you think such a large forest is enough for our nearly 10,000 people to burn fire?" Just like how many trees we cut down these days to build houses, make furniture, and many other places where wood is used in our daily lives. According to this calculation, how long can you think about how long this forest can last? ”
This is a stump for Xiao Shi, he is a craftsman, and he is not an arithmetic, how can he do such a complex calculation.
"It's ......."
Xiao Shu hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't say anything, Tang Ming confidently answered: "You don't need to worry too much about this, in fact, you just need to know that if the forest is destroyed by one-third, the first thing to change must be the climate." For example, this mountain is now overgrown with towering trees, and you don't feel anything at all. Once these trees are cut down, exposing soil or even stones, the mountain will soon collapse in extreme weather. ”
"A small island is simply not comparable to the vast mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty, the vast land gives us many choices, but on this small island, we must be self-sufficient, this island is our everything, without us even have a place to live, so it is inevitable not to cut down trees, although this biogas is dangerous, but it is indispensable."
Ecology is too broad to be explained in a few words, and the deeper you go, the more problems will arise. This knowledge can only be left for everyone to learn slowly in the future, and it is useless to talk too much now, it will only make everyone more and more confused.
With all that said, Xiao Shu naturally didn't dare to ask any more, even if he was full of questions now, he could only be stuffy. Hou Ye's identity is there, Tang Ming can tell them so much is already considered an exception, and if he asks again, he will annoy Hou Ye, and Xiao Shi's life will be gone.
It was quiet, and everyone present did not speak again, and the atmosphere was a little strange for a while. Everyone stared at Hou Ye with big eyes, and there were actually ten people among the nearly 100 people who could understand Tang Ming's meaning. Most people listen to Hou Ye as if they are listening to a book from heaven, and they only know one thing, that is, this so-called biogas is very dangerous.
But Hou Ye asked them all to use this, saying that if they cut down the trees and mountains, they would collapse, and they could understand the simple truth, but the deeper truth would not make sense.
Looking at the expressions of these people in front of him, Tang Ming could think with his toes that they were still afraid of biogas. Blame himself for making the problem too serious, and he had to swallow it in his stomach.
"Actually, I just told you that biogas is very dangerous, and you don't need to pay too much attention to it, because there are advantages and disadvantages, and there will be good sides. In addition, biogas can not only be used for fire, but also for lighting, and there will be no need for oil lamps on the island in the future. ”
No one would doubt the authenticity of Tang Ming's words, the biogas had been brought out, and if he made something strange, everyone seemed to be a little numb.
