Chapter Eighty-Seven: Spatial Upheaval
"Well, remember to go back and show me the plan, it's just simple and practical, don't make it too complicated." Li Dong confessed again before leaving.
After leaving the farm, Li Dong went to the Dongying wharf again, where he had recently bought a relatively large warehouse to start a medium-sized flour mill. The transportation here is very developed, and it is a good location to set up a factory.
The wheat in the space is harvesting time again, and this time the yield is very large, Li Dong has planted more than 3,000 acres of wheat. At present, the unmanned agricultural machinery is harvesting, and it is estimated that it will be completed in a few days.
According to estimates, Li Dong will be able to harvest about 3,000 tons of wheat this time. The small workshop in the Yangming community naturally can't handle so much wheat. As a last resort, he moved his small workshop to the docks, preparing to upgrade it to a medium-sized flour mill.
"Director Yu, how is the preparation of the factory?"
Mr. Yu is the factory manager that Li Dong found through a headhunting company, he is in his early forties and has more than ten years of experience in the flour milling industry. His last job was as the deputy director of a medium-sized flour mill, but there was a safety accident and he had to resign.
"Mr. Li, don't worry, the factory procedures have been completed, the machines have been debugged, and the employees have been recruited, so they can produce at any time." Director Yu's answer was sonorous and powerful, this job opportunity was not easy to come by, and he was very cautious.
"Okay, then arrange for the workers to carry out trial production first, a large amount of wheat will come over in a few days, pay attention to the reception work." Li Dong nodded with satisfaction.
"Don't worry, there is absolutely no problem, I will go and inform the workers to go to work later." Director Yu agreed.
After leaving the flour mill, Li Dong went to the warehouse at the wharf, where a lot of wheat was now piled up. These wheats are produced both in space and from outside. After all, once the flour mill is opened, it will definitely not be able to keep up with the consumption with the wheat in the current space.
Moreover, space wheat is a high-quality category, and they are stored separately from other wheat and produced separately. Carrefour, of course, also sells plain flour, which used to be wholesaled directly from suppliers, but now that it has its own factory, it can just do away with this intermediate link.
This warehouse is equivalent to a transfer station for the flour mill, which Li Dong specially requested, in order to disguise the origin of the wheat in the space. Although Director Yu had some doubts and thought that this matter was too much, he could only comply with it in the end when he saw Li Dong's insistence.
I haven't been in the space for several days, and it's rare to have free today, so Li Dong's thoughts flashed into the space. Today, the space has changed dramatically, not only in terms of size, but also in terms of vegetation.
The flowers and trees that were planted before are now blooming and bearing fruit, and the fruits that are eaten at home on weekdays are basically picked by Li Dong from the space. The circle of saplings that used to be planted along Lake Xi is now lush and green, and finally has the feeling of a forest.
The aquaculture in the lake is limited by Li Dong, and there is no automatic equipment, so it still maintains the original scale. Usually once a week, Li Dong will catch it, except for his own food, most of the rest are put in Carrefour for sale, the profit is not much, but it really attracts a group of high-end customers.
As for the ranch, Li Dong didn't pay much attention to it later, just let it expand slowly. But even so, there are now thousands of acres, Li Dong has encircled a few fences, and there are hundreds of cattle and sheep purchased before and after.
In addition to cattle and sheep, Li Dong also bought some other animals, such as chickens, ducks, geese, domestic pigs, horses, donkeys, roe deer, wild deer and other herbivores. There are also some rabbits with strong reproductive ability, such as rabbits, and in the absence of sufficient protective measures, Li Dong did not set foot easily for the sake of prudence.
Coming to the planting area, the original vegetable field is now only about one acre left, and most of them are some melons and fruits. Since the establishment of Xiaoyu Farm, Li Dong has gradually reduced the scale of vegetable planting, after all, manpower is limited, and in terms of efficiency alone, it is a bit worth the loss.
Li Dong finally came to the edge of the wheat field, and at a glance, it was all golden ears of wheat, but unfortunately there was no wind in the space, otherwise you could see the charming wheat waves.
In the wheat field, two unmanned harvesters are busy harvesting crops, and the one in the back is an additional order from Li Dong. He placed an order for another 10 units in one go some time ago, and just arrived two a few days ago, which will just come in handy.
On the wheat field that has been harvested, there are bags of wheat at intervals, which is a masterpiece of the automatic sealing machine on the harvester. Li Dong's task is to move the wheat into the dock warehouse outside the space. The wheat was all bagged, about one hundred and fifty catties, which was just within his ability.
Carrying and moving, Li Dong slowly realized that something was wrong, all the wheat bags were wet. This is impossible, if it is an individual bag, it may also be the traces left by some "jailbreaking" animals.
But all the bags are wet, which is a bit bizarre. You know, it doesn't rain in the space, so where does all this water come from, Li Dong is puzzled.
Putting aside his doubts for the time being, Li Dong spent half a day moving all the wheat that had been harvested to the warehouse. Then, he immediately called Director Yu and asked him to quickly arrange for someone to come and transport the wheat.
The wheat has been soaked in water and needs to be dried immediately, otherwise it will have to be sold to the brewery when it sprouts, and it is not known whether they will receive it or not. Director Yu knew the seriousness of the matter and immediately organized employees to rush the shipment, but fortunately, the warehouse was not far from the flour mill, and there was still time to do so.
In the next few days, Li Dong entered the space as soon as he had free time, and he tried to figure out about it, but he never found any signs. It wasn't until more than a week later that Li Dong accidentally re-entered the space and was stunned all of a sudden.
It was raining in the space, and although the rain was not heavy, it was only equivalent to light rain. In the end, Li Dong could only accept this result, and according to his speculation, the reason why it rained in the space may be because the space area was large enough to gradually form a local microclimate.
Of course, there are pros and cons to rain in the space for Li Dong, but the good thing is that he no longer has to worry about irrigation in the future, which saves him a lot of time and energy. On the downside, he needs to hurry up and build a number of houses, including his own house and animal pens, which he will get sick when it rains, so he has to pay attention to it.
