Chapter 63: Slate Radar
Within a few days, the island made a simple plan, and the long-suspended factory was up and running again, but the operation policy changed significantly, and the people on the island volunteered to go to the factory to continue working.
Although Kaido is the captain of the ship, it is a normal thing for the captain to be in charge, and usually there will be another person in charge on the ship.
And so far, the best at managing personnel in the Hundred Beast Pirates is Asie, who used to be the manager of Alkemi, so it can be said that he has more experience in this area.
He was not a vicious pirate, so he did not blindly oppress the islanders, but like a normal manager, he paid a certain salary, but the share was smaller than that of the outside, and those were counted as taxes for the islanders.
And there are some rules about the island, which restrict the pirate group from harassing the residents for no reason.
At first, there were people who objected, this kind of thing is incomprehensible to many pirates, but their opposition is meaningless at all, Kaido doesn't care about this kind of thing, and Asie's actions are supported by Arceus, which indirectly gets the consent of all the cadres.
Quinn felt that this kind of thing didn't matter, anyway, his interests were not damaged, and Assière was not a brainless person, knowing that these pirates were not ordinary law enforcers, so they had stricter requirements for the islanders, which could be said to divide the status of the island.
But instead of reacting to this demand, the inhabitants of the island were glad that Asie's policy was much better than it had been during John's reign.
During John's time they had to go to work in factories without any pay, they worked to keep themselves alive, John's territory didn't need people of no value, and once they couldn't show their worth, then John's crew wouldn't give out any food.
In Winter Island, this kind of thing is almost deadly.
Although the work requirements set by Assière are also mandatory, in addition to the necessary food, a part of the salary will be paid, which is a big change for the people on the island.
As for the captured pirates, their status is even lower than that of civilians, and there is another business on the island in addition to the arms business - minerals.
Mining in the climate of Winter Island was undoubtedly a very difficult task, so this kind of work was given to the more physical pirates, and also to the place where the Beast Pirates could vent their emotions, that is, the overseers of the mines.
For these pirates, the policies formulated by Assière are not so restrictive, whether it is scolding or anything else, there are no special restrictions.
The flag of the Hundred Beast Pirates fluttered over the island, which could be regarded as giving the island some stable space.
With the island as the center, Kaido then began to expand to the surrounding islands, implementing a simple policy.
Among those who resisted, if there was someone Kaido fancied, he was willing to give him a chance, and the rest would be thrown directly into the mines and farms on the nearby islands.
This winter island alone needs to rely on the outside world, but the nearby islands together can form a complete industrial chain, minerals, manufacturing, grain production and so on.
Shayna and Ember followed Kaido to the turf, while Arceus took Quinn and Assière to the island's factory to study things like "slate radar".
"Do you remember how that thing was made?"
Arceus looked at the environment and understood the reason for the island's foothold.
There are factories on each island, and it is not necessary to choose this place for simply making some munitions, but there is a very sophisticated machine tool on this island that can process more delicate parts.
"That's it, this was also one of the secret bases of MADS at the beginning, and this thing is what we left behind."
"With this, you can make it?"
"This... I'm not sure that Vegapunk made an experimental machine, and it's a half-finished product, but I know the idea, and it can always be reproduced after some time.
The conductivity of pure gold should be able to meet the demand. ”
"I haven't forgotten how pure gold is made, but there is a problem, I looked at it before, and many of the materials of pure gold are now contraband, and if they are purchased in large quantities, they are likely to attract the attention of the government."
"Mha, you can rest assured, the last thing that is lacking in this world is the gray industry, even if it is the world government, they can't control the underground market in the world, let alone in the new world."
"Yes, I won't talk about common materials, these are some scarce resources, you can see if you can get them."
Assière handed Quinn a table of materials, there was no ratio and synthesis method, it was useless to just take this, he was not afraid to expose this.
When he saw the list of materials, a few drops of sweat ran down Quinn's head.
"Lord Arceus, maybe... Our plans weren't going so well? ”
"What's wrong?"
"These materials... It's too difficult, the fresh branches and leaves of the treasure tree Adam, the eggshell of the island turtle, although this kind of thing is rare and expensive, but there is still a way, you can always find it with some time, the problem is, some materials have long been extinct..."
More than a hundred years have passed since the day he made pure gold, and there have been many things that have happened in these hundred years, and the South China Sea Emperor fever has been conquered as a matter of the medical community.
But at the same time, many organisms and plants were declared extinct during this time, and the production of pure gold was not a simple mineral synthesis, but also some animal and plant components.
"In other words, this ring is the last pure gold?"
"This... I'm afraid so, maybe there is still a surplus in the inventory of the primeval island or some people, but..."Quinn didn't continue to speak, he couldn't do anything about this kind of thing, he couldn't change the extinct materials.
At the beginning, there was still a lot of pure gold in the belly of that sea king, but he didn't care about this kind of thing at that time, and now that sea king should have become the nourishment of other creatures, in terms of the proportion of pure gold, I don't know where it was carried by the current in the deep sea for so long.
Looking for those pure gold is looking for a needle in a haystack, it is better to look directly for the slate.
"Gather some of those materials, take your time, and try them out with what you have first."
The news made him unhappy, but he didn't release his emotions on Assière or Quinn, which was uncontrollable after all.
As for using the power of time and space to go back to the past to find materials, by the time he has the power of time and space, he will have already returned to his heyday, and there is no need to do such a thing.
With Arceus's assistance, Quinn and Assière stayed in the laboratory for several months, but this time of hard work was not in vain, and a slate radar with a perception radius of about one kilometer was successfully built.
