If you are not prepared, you will not know. Only after this preparation did Zhao Hai realize that he had thought of things too simply, thinking that as long as he prepared the oil press, he could produce fruit oil.
But when it came time to prepare, they discovered that there were still many things missing. First, they needed a place to clean the oil fruits. After the oil fruits were taken out, they had to be cleaned before the oil could be squeezed. Otherwise, the oil would be lost.
There will be fruit hairs on the oil fruit skin, which will affect the quality of the fruit oil.
Secondly, they need to keep putting oil fruits into the oil press, which requires manpower and tools. Manpower is so easy to say that Zhao Hai can use undead creatures instead, but he needs to prepare this tool separately.
Although there are a lot of daily necessities here, the tools for extracting oil are not yet available.
Thirdly, they also need to prepare tools, either wooden barrels or iron boxes. The oil cannot leak out and just flow to the ground. And one thousand kilograms of oil a day is not a small amount. They need to prepare barrels.
There are quite a few sons.
And now Zhao Hai has no carpenters at all, no one knows how to make wooden barrels, and the cost of making iron barrels is really too high. The money Zhao Hai has now is not enough to buy many iron barrels, so he can only
Buy some wooden barrels and use them first.
In this way, Zhao Hai found that the little money he had in hand was really not enough to do anything. Even if he wanted to develop faster, it would not be possible.
Zhao Hai had no choice but to wait until the oil press arrived, then go to Casa City to see how much the barrels cost, and then prepare to buy some barrels.
Zhao Hai now has some regrets. He shouldn't have bought the oil press first. It might be better to save the money to buy something else. What he should do now is to save some blue-eyed rabbits first.
Then he asked Laura to find a buyer for him. After all, for Zhao Hai, this was equivalent to a business without capital.
Although due to financial problems, the oil pressing plant may not be of a large scale for a while, the room still needs to be tidied up. When the oil pressing machines arrive, there must be a place to install them.
Let the slaves clean the room here. Zhao Hai and Merlin left the castle and went directly to the mountain lake. There were no fish in the mountain lake. It may be due to the influence of toxins during the beast tide, but it is not ruled out that there may be powerful people in the lake.
Because of the water-type monsters, if there really are water-type monsters, the fish they throw in are equivalent to feeding the monsters. To be on the safe side, Zhao Hai decided to ask Merlin to check the Yamanaka Lake to make sure if there are any.
Warcraft.
Green and Meg are also following. If there is a powerful water monster found in Yamanaka Lake, they can also help deal with it.
Although she had checked once before, this time Mei Lin checked more carefully. At the same time, she was also checking the direction of the water flow. After all, if she didn't check the direction of the water flow in this mountain lake, no matter how many fish she threw in, they would run away.
Fortunately, there are really no water-based monsters in the lake, and the water flow here doesn't seem to be very fast, and there are no creatures in the water. It seems that the poison of the monsters and undead creatures in the swamp is too strong, so Lake Yamanaka
There is no life in it.
Zhao Hai was still a little worried, so he sent an undead creature down into the lake to find the source of the lake. Unfortunately, there was no way to find the source of the lake. The lake was strange.
There is a water inlet on the right, and there is a water outlet on Zhao Hai's left. The water inlet and the water outlet are mines dug by dwarves, but there is something wrong with these two holes.
The news from the undead creatures was that the water outlet and the water inlet were blocked by something and they couldn't get through. This really surprised Zhao Hai. He hurriedly entered the space and opened the screen to see what was under the water.
.
The situation at the bottom of the water surprised Zhao Hai. Although there were no large fish or magic caps in the lake, it did not look empty at all. There were many aquatic plants growing in the water. The most important thing was,
Zhao Hai actually saw something like coral in the water.
This is what surprised Zhao Hai. He didn't understand why there were coral-like things at the bottom of the lake. He remembered that corals usually lived in the sea. How could there be something like this at the bottom of the water?
But it is a pity that he is too far away from the water outlet and water inlet, and it is impossible to see what is blocking the water outlet and water inlet.
Zhao Hai had to call back the undead creature he sent into the water, then gave him the evil spirit walking stick and asked him to take it to the water entrance again.
In fact, Zhao Hai almost had the answer in his heart. The entrance to the water was probably blocked by coral. If that was the case, he didn't have to worry about anything and could just raise fish in the lake.
Merlin also followed Zhao Hai and looked at the screen. Soon the undead creature arrived at the inlet of the lake. The inlet of the lake was very huge, more than ten meters high and more than twenty meters wide. But now the water inlet was
It was completely blocked by something that looked like coral. This thing was blue and looked like blue crystal in the water. It was very beautiful.
When Merlin saw this thing, he nodded and said, "It turns out to be a hornworm, that's right. Only this kind of thing can hide from my detection and survive in a place like this."
Zhao Hai looked at Merlin in confusion and said: "Grandma Merlin, what are crystal horned insects?"
Merlin smiled and said: "This crystal horned insect is a very special water creature. They are very small. Normal detection magic cannot detect them at all. This kind of insect has no attack power, and no one knows how they are here."
Those who survive in the water only know that this kind of thing can secrete a kind of crystal like magic crystal. This crystal is very hard. It is difficult for ordinary fifth-level warriors to hurt them even with swords. The most important thing is
, this kind of bug can adapt to any kind of environment. As long as it is flowing water and reaches a certain depth, they can survive, and slowly form this kind of blue crystal like antlers, and this kind of bug is not afraid of poison and has
Some alchemists will specially collect these insects to make some antidotes."
When Zhao Hai heard what she said, he realized that this kind of crystal horned insect is a bit like an evolved coral polyp. It can survive in any water environment, and it is not afraid of poison. No wonder there is no water system in this mountain lake.
Warcraft, but there are so many coral-like things.
Zhao Hai looked at the coral-filled things made by the crystal hornworms, and couldn't help but nodded: "This is good, it saves us trouble, and we can just raise fish in the lake.
Merlin smiled and said: "Not only that, in fact, although the crystals formed by this kind of crystal hornworm are not very useful, they are very beautiful. Most nobles like these things very much and like to put them at home. As long as they put this
Placing the crystal in the room can prevent some poisonous magic attacks. Even if someone wants to poison you, you can also find that this kind of crystal has a characteristic. When placed at home, if toxins enter his five senses,
Within a meter range, it will emit a faint fragrance, so many nobles will have a lot of this kind of stuff in their homes. The price of this kind of stuff is also very expensive. There are a lot of this kind of blue crystal in the lake, Master.
If these things are dug out, they can be sold for a lot of money."
Zhao Hai smiled and said: "Forget it, let them stay in the lake. This way the lake will look more beautiful. Don't rush to dig it out. This thing can't escape anyway."
Merlin didn't really have any objections. In fact, she knew that there is another benefit of crystal horned insects, that is, if fish are raised in places with such crystal horned insects, the fish will rarely get sick, and the survival rate will be very high.
It's just that she didn't need to tell Zhao Hai this. Zhao Hai's space can be used to raise fish, and the survival rate is 100%, which is much better than this kind of crystal horned worm.
However, Zhao Hai decided not to dig up these blue crystals, which is also beneficial. After all, they will need to be raised on a large scale in the future. It is impossible for Zhao Hai to do this in the space. They can only put them in the lake. With these things, what will happen to those fish?
Very beneficial.
After seeing this, Zhao Hai felt relieved. Now as long as they can get the fry of scaleless fish, their fish farm will be established.
Back at the castle, the large warehouses were ready. Zhao Hai and Green took a look at them and thought they were good, so they returned to the space.
In the next three days, Zhao Hai has been waiting at Qingshi Villa for Laura to send someone to pick up radishes. In the past few days, he has planted radishes in the space. In the past three days, he has harvested nine seasons of radishes.
, now even if Laura asks for hundreds of thousands of kilograms of radishes, he won’t be afraid that he won’t be able to get it.
In three days, he harvested two crops of oil fruits. Now he has a lot of oil fruits in his hands, almost 10 million kilograms. This is already the third batch of oil fruits he has planted.
Yes, the oil fruits harvested this time are the first season of the third batch.
In addition to the oil fruits, in the past three days, Zhao Hai collected another thousand mature large rabbits and 70,000 small rabbits. However, he did not collect the scaly wildebeest. He raised all the wildebeests in the pasture.
rabbit.
In Zhao Hai's opinion, the current scaly wildebeest is a bit useless. Even ordinary meat processing plants do not accept scaly wildebeest because the meat of this animal is very thick and not tasty, and the army also has
I don't want this thing, because it can only be used to carry things, not as a cavalry mount.
It would be very good if it was used for plowing, but Zhao Hai really doesn't have much land to plow right now, so these horses can't be used for the time being.
In these three days, Zhao Hai has almost transformed the land in the Iron Mountain Canyon. As long as the land there is transformed, Zhao Hai is going to send some slaves directly there to build a small village there.
Those slaves lived there, making it a relatively independent existence.
