279. Pre-disaster preparation

……

After reading the introduction of the ocean mud, Su Yu immediately took out a small ball of ocean mud the size of a ping-pong ball for experiments, this ocean mud is somewhat similar to a previous toy called 'Crystal Baby', which also swells when exposed to water and is easy to break when it grows up.

The difference is that this ocean mud can be used indefinitely, and it absorbs a lot of water, a ball of ocean mud the size of a ping-pong ball can absorb a large bucket of water.

Not only that, although it will expand, the proportion of expansion is not large, and there is no need to worry about the large footprint affecting everyone's movement at that time.

And after it bursts, as long as the water inside is dry, it will be marine mud that can absorb water.

With this thing, then there will be a solution to the flood at that time, and this marine mud can be used as the first and last layer of defense against floods, and can also be used as a material for water absorption and drainage in the territory.

The same material dropped by the water elemental, there is also a lot of marine mud, at least enough to enclose the entire territory.

In this way, there are wells and water storage silos for drought, blue mud for acid rain, and ocean mud for floods, and now the combination of the five natural disasters is only locust plague and forest carnival and there is no solution.

"This trip to clean up the sea area is worth it!" Isn't it worth it, the materials of the two natural disasters have been directly gathered, four talents have been recruited, and I even met a cute little mermaid......

In contrast, she only paid less than three hundred gold coins, and she will do as much as she can in the future!

"Now that the other natural disasters have been resolved, and there is still a Sit in the territory, it is time to prepare for the locust plague." Su Yu muttered to himself as he returned to the City Lord's Mansion, preparing to release a large number of tasks.

In fact, compared with several other natural disasters, in order of difficulty, the first one is drought, and the second is locust plague, and there are 'key props' to solve locust plagues in the current territory.

Locusts have natural predators, and their natural predators are all creatures that can feed on insects, such as birds, frogs, spiders, etc.

Among them, frogs and spiders are obviously unrealistic to catch and raise, but there are chickens in the territory.

Chickens also eat insects, and they also eat locusts, and in the game, chickens have a bonus buff to natural enemy damage to locusts, and if it is really a locust plague at that time, she just needs to 'close the door and release the chickens'.

"Start storing water, make acid rain equipment, build dikes, lay out drainage areas, and...... Catch the chicken! "That's all for the Sunset Territory to prepare for the next week.

Everything else is ready-made, except that there are not enough chickens to deal with the locust plague, and even if they can eat it again, no matter how powerful they are, they will not be able to resist the locusts comparable to the natural disaster.

And in a short period of time, it is impossible for the territory to breed many chickens.

However, there are chickens in the forest, as long as you send a task for people to catch them alive and raise them, it just so happens that there are pastures in the territory, and there are also residents with animal husbandry skills.

Everything is perfect, at least for now.

After having a plan, Su Yu began to implement these plans one by one.

……

……

The time came to the twenty-fourth day, and in the early morning, many people saw these tasks, and those who met the conditions immediately took over these tasks directly.

Because they are in a hurry to prepare, the rewards for these tasks are extraordinarily rich, and because of this, everyone's enthusiasm for these tasks is far greater than the original ones.

Everything went on in an orderly manner until the afternoon, when Suyu met with the other two people she had recruited, the librarian named Eddard and the master builder named Al Ain.

The process of recruiting Ain was particularly smooth, as Ain's needs were simple, he wanted to be the captain of the construction team, and he wanted to be in command of the construction team, and he didn't want anyone to dictate to him.

In this regard, Su Yu said that he had no opinion, after all, he is an architect in the current territory, he is a professional, who else can he listen to if he doesn't listen to him?

As long as his ability passes, let alone the captain of a construction team, Su Yu will most likely hand over the construction of the entire city to him in the future, after all, he is the first architect in the territory, as long as he does a good job, Su Yu's most trusted architect will always be him.

Ain was very satisfied with Su Yu's attitude, so he directly applied to join the territory immediately.

After Ain joined, Suyu handed over all the projects of the embankment and drainage canals that were being built to him.

With the addition of a professional architect, the progress of building the embankment has skyrocketed.

Originally, one morning and half an afternoon only increased the progress by less than 10%, but in half an afternoon, the progress came directly to 20%!

In this way, the embankment will be built in less than three days.

Compared with Ain, who is easy to speak and has low requirements, Ed is not so easy to recruit, after all, Ed's personality traits have been clearly displayed on the recruitment panel, and one word to describe it is 'proud'!

He is arrogant, quite arrogant.

If you want to convince this kind of person, there is only one way, that is, to be more powerful than him, although it will not wear out his arrogance, but it must also have enough ability to suppress him.

It just so happens that in terms of knowledge, although Su Yu is not the first in the mainland, it can be regarded as the top ten.

After all, she was different from them, and she knew many things that these people might not be able to understand in their lifetime.

Although she has no more experience than theirs, her identity is destined to allow her to know far more than anyone on this continent.
