When the old man and his entourage arrived at the island in the middle of the lake and saw the environment, they were indeed surprised by the uniqueness of this place.

This small island in the middle of the lake isolates them from the zombies in the outside world, and even in their sleep, they don't have to worry about being attacked by zombies, which is the first point.

The second point is that the fish in the lake is quite abundant, as if the lake has not been polluted since the beginning of the apocalypse, even because of the presence of zombies. When they were not trapped in the building by zombies, they would occasionally come to the lake to fish, but it seems that those fish prefer to gather near the island in the middle of the lake, where fishing is much less difficult. Combined with the fact that they could also identify several edible mutant plant fruits, including beef fruits, it was a veritable place for them to live.

The process of the integration of the two parties is not very difficult, because first of all, the old man and they are not very numerous, similar to Li Jian and their side, it is just the fusion between small groups and small groups, such a fusion, there is almost no hindrance, except for the slightly detached status of Li Jian and Lin Ying, there are no other problems.

Moreover, after coming here, they really realized that Li Jian was indeed accepted because of their knowledge, because they were experts in various fields before the end of the world, so the integration of the two parties was logical.

With the assistance of the old man and others, there are more than a dozen residents on the island in the middle of the lake, and now, Li Jian has officially begun to carry out a comprehensive transformation of this island in the middle of the lake.

First of all, the first place that Li Jian renovated was about planting.

"I have measured the nutritional content of beef fruit, except that its taste contains the smell of meat, in fact, its various components are similar to ordinary rice, that is, it can be used as a starch, that is, the staple food."

Changed into a clean white coat. The woman with a pair of thick glasses on the bridge of her nose said to Li Jian with an A4 paper-sized document with various data recorded on it.

This woman, named Hu Ying, is a botanist before the end of the world, and she has a detailed understanding of plants, and now the research on mutated plants is mainly carried out by her and Lin Ying. And their first task is to figure out the characteristics of these non-aggressive mutant plants on the island in the middle of the lake.

"In addition, we studied two other edible fruits during this time, one of which we call a sustaining fruit and the other a protein fruit. Both fruits are like beef fruits, and they mainly contain starch, but they also contain various vitamins. More protein is added to the protein fruit, and these two fruits can be used as complementary foods to meet the daily consumption of the human body. ”

After listening to Hu Ying's report, Li Jian pondered for a while, and then shouted at Qin Hu who was not far away.

"Qin Hu! You go find Zhao Le, and then come with him! ”

It didn't take long for the muscular man Qin Hu to come over with a slightly thin young man who didn't look much older than Li Jian.

After seeing them coming, Li Jian asked in a loud voice.

"Zhao Le. What happened to the fields over there? ”

Zhao Le heard Li Jian's question, and then replied with a wincing.

"Cow ...... The first batch of beef fruits has not yet borne fruit, but I speculate that the growth cycle of this fruit is about three crops in one season. That is, it can be harvested three times in a season. Depending on the growth of a single plant and a seed, about 10 to 15 fruits can be harvested per harvest. Of course, the survival rate of the seeds is still being measured, but I estimate that it should be above 85 percent......"

This Zhao Le is an agriculturist. Or to put it less accurately, Zhao Le was just an assistant in a laboratory before the end of the world, and also served as a liaison with the field agriculture. That is to say, before the end of the world, the things they have researched in the laboratory will be sent to the field for field agricultural experiments, and Zhao Le will give feedback to the laboratory on the results of field agricultural experiments, acting as a liaison and intermediary between the two, in other words, this Zhao Le can be said to be half a farmer, half an agriculturist, he has certain expertise in farming, and now he is arranged by Li Jian to plant this area, responsible for studying the cultivation of food.

"In this way, Zhao Le, you expand the scope of the current fields over there a little more, and in the future, our main food will be beef and fruit, and after the experiment is completed, we will start planting in large quantities, and it is best to achieve a self-sufficient cycle mode. In addition, two special places are set aside to come out, try to plant sustaining fruits and protein fruits, you communicate with Hu Ying and the two, if you need anything, feel free to tell me, such as what materials you need to find, fertilizer or something, make a list for me, and I will try to pay attention to it next time I go out to find materials. ”

Anyway, Li Jian sent a few people away, Li Jian attaches great importance to the aspect of growing food, because food is the foundation of a base area, inspired by the previous greenhouse, Li Jian deeply realized how important it is to achieve food self-sufficiency. Because it is impossible for them to always go from outside to find supplies and find food back, first ensure that they are self-sufficient in food, so they can continue to develop vigorously, so Li Jian attaches great importance to this aspect.

In addition to the aspect of growing food, because there are not many experts this time, at best, there are only a few, but because they are involved in various fields, Li Jian deliberately arranged them into their professional fields, so that they can give full play to their strengths. At present, in addition to growing food, there is also research on changemakers, in the field of zombies, in living things, such as fish in lakes, livestock breeding found from outside, and so on.

In addition, the overalls uncle named Wang Hanfei, who had previously tried his best to oppose joining the island in the middle of the lake, was assigned an extremely nerve-wracking task by Li Jian.

Design a movable bridge to connect the island in the middle of the lake with the lake.

For him alone, this task is quite daunting. Of course, it is impossible to build such a bridge on his own, so all Li Jian asks is for him to design it, that is, to hand over a design drawing.

Although it is just a design drawing, but the amount of work is not a joke, Wang Hanfei has little estrangement to Li Jian after joining the island in the middle of the lake, but after receiving this task, he is still crying out and shouting at Li Jian.

"How can you think of it with just your brain! Why don't you get me a computer too! ”

Hearing Wang Hanfei think so, Li Jian suddenly felt that if this island in the middle of the lake was to be transformed into a good thing for a long time, one thing was indispensable.

That is, electricity.

He decided he was going to find a generator. (To be continued......)
