According to the production plan, the sawmill and steel mill are the next buildings to be built. The coal reserves were also able to squander for three days, and the resources produced by the construction of the first two days were just enough to complete the upgrade of the first-level drawing board technology and reserve the resources for the manufacture of shearers.

Calculate the time, and the restarting scout team should also meet the discovery of the steel bridge, send the repaired robots back, and then continue to the coal mine, and bring back the coal reserves there.

In this way, the supply of coal resources can be just completed. At the time when the plot officially begins, New London, which has a full set of primary resource gathering buildings, can be described as easy and enjoyable in the early development.

Strategy building game, once the early stage is smooth sailing and avoiding the thunder, the later development only needs to be step by step. Li Jianghao drew a table for himself, recorded the time of the temperature change in his memory, and reminded himself at all times.

After doing all this, it was customary to arrange Bernard to solve the physiological problems and then tie them back to the control room, Li Jianghao went out with the drawings and walked all the way towards the lumber yard under construction.

The lumberyard was built close to the tundra forest. These trees had already been cut down during the previous construction of the energy tower, but they had not yet had time to be made into standard wood resources, so they still needed to build corresponding buildings to cut and process.

Andrew looked at Li Jianghao coming, frowned, he had already pinched a little and ran to the construction site of the sawmill, at this time Li Jianghao should be "hanging out" in the children's shelter or workstation, how could he think of this.

To his dismay, the mayor had a roll of drawings in his arms. Now that he saw the mayor coming with the blueprints, he felt that his head was about to be bombarded with the magical brain circuits of Mr. Mayor. But after being bombed, when he came back to his senses, in a sense, he still felt that the mayor's drawings were really meaningful, but they were generally not scientific.

"Morning, Andrew, I didn't expect you to care so much about the construction of the sawmill, I thought you would check out the construction of the rail platform, where the first steam hub is about to be built, and you need to pay attention to safety issues." Li Jianghao greeted him, and the latter bowed his head politely, not at all the gesture of believing in himself last night.

Andrew Pi shook his mouth muscles with a smile and said, "Mayor, these architectural designs have been closely reviewed by the Academy of Sciences to ensure that the workers can assemble them safely and efficiently when there are sufficient resources. So I'm not worried about the establishment of the steam hub at all, but the access to resources is what I care about. When the supply of timber is restored, steel mills and shearers can be built. In just a few days, we were able to regain self-sufficiency in resources, and all thanks to you, Mr. Mayor. ”

Li Jianghao could only say hehe, and said that you, a stubborn guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, have started to pat yourself on the back.

"Alright, Mr. Mayor, there must be something going on here in your busy schedule, and it shouldn't be something you can come to me for." Andrew asked Li Jianghao the real reason for coming here, and he was even more afraid of what would shock his scientific concept after the drawings in Li Jianghao's arms were unfolded.

Li Jianghao didn't answer immediately, and walked all the way to the main saw blade in the center of the sawmill, folding the drawings in his arms and stuffing them into his arms. Andrew breathed a sigh of relief, and saw Li Jianghao take out new drawings and pens from his other pocket, and the momentum in his heart suddenly blocked his throat, and his face turned pale.

"I'm planning to improve the sawmill sawing knives, you know, it's easy to cut through these frozen trees when the sawblades are turned on, but the cut trees need to be processed and cut into standard wood, which wastes a lot of time. If we install a small logging saw directly behind the main saw, we can process the cut wood blocks into the right size, and then make standard timber will also save a lot of effort. ”

Li Jianghao found a platform and talked about his ideas while gesturing. He spent a while studying the few basic buildings that were still lit up in the Imperial building templates from Warhammer Worlds. Although it can't be done yet, the design tells the engineers here that it might work wonders.

Andrew was puzzled: "Isn't that an extra move? Freshly cut blocks are meant to be processed, and although an additional process increases the efficiency of the workers and prolongs the time of the whole process, we even need someone to control the cutting range of these new saws, which may reduce the overall efficiency. ”

Li Jianghao pointed to the huge main blade that was being installed, and connected many fixed lines on the hinge part of the drawing, and said:

"Wouldn't it be much more convenient to let the machine determine the location than for the workers to determine the size themselves. The main blade is driven by steam from the steam pipeline, which can theoretically be opened around the clock with daily maintenance. We build a conveyor belt in the spare position at the back, install a small blade in a fixed position, and use the power of the main blade to drive, so as not to waste steam power. In this way, a steady stream of roughly processed wood can be produced after start-up, which is sent to the processing site via a conveyor belt. But because the workers can only work during the day, the main blade will be shut down at night, which is a huge waste. ”

Li Jianghao was heartbroken, although in Andrew's eyes, it was just a few impulses from the mayor's face, but Andrew realized the huge potential contained in the mayor's opinion.

In fact, no matter what level the sawmill is upgraded to, at the beginning of the design, the workers will always process the wood as fast as the main blade can cut the blocks, and there is even a lot of surplus. However, because the main blade cuts the wooden blocks of different shapes, the processing speed of the workers is somewhat slowed down.

Now, according to the mayor's design, the wood blocks delivered to the workers are already extremely easy to process secondary wood blocks, plus the calculation of the time when the sawmill is open around the clock, then the timber output efficiency of the sawmill will reach a terrifying efficiency, even exceeding the next stage of the steam sawmill upgrade!

And the reason for all this is just to install a stopper in the open space behind the main blade shaft to install a fixed size blade.

As an engineer, Andrew felt that he was too attached to the standard building guidelines of the Academy of Sciences, and built the Energy Tower according to its design. Perhaps, when I first joined the Academy of Sciences, I dreamed of becoming an engineer, and the exploration of the infinite possibilities of science was lost in this step by step by following the rules.

Li Jianghao looked at Andrew stunned in place, and asked tentatively, "What?" Isn't it feasible to do so? ”

"No, no, you can do exactly what you designed. This will bring us a huge capacity for timber. Andrew took a deep breath and looked at Li Jianghao, "However, with all due respect, I really want to cut your head open when I install the blade to see what kind of treasure it is." ”
