Chapter 12 - The Problem of the Colony


After catching the smugglers, around next week, everything calmed down again, and the colony was also growing steadily.


The number of mining stations built around the gas giant has grown to four, supplying helium-3 fuel to aircraft carriers for its fusion reactors. However, there are only four modular mining stations on an aircraft carrier, if you want to build a new mining station, you have to build one yourself.


In addition, which surrounds the gas giant planet which is also called Endor is rich in various metal minerals. Now people in the engineering department are working overtime to build an interstellar mining field on one of the asteroids to provide raw materials for construction work in space.


The same applies to the colonies on the mainland, now the colonies on the Planet Dawn have built 1,000 modular 2-story residential buildings, and the population number has increased to more than 1,700, the report said, and the entire colony can accommodate 10,000 inhabitants.


Daphne Clement of the Department of Administration continued to select suitable residents to awaken and sent them to the Planet of Dawn to join the construction work.


The biggest problem now is the first is the job pressure brought on by the rapid population growth, and the second is the lack of transport ships between the carriers and the planet Dawn. The carrier has only 5 small transport ships, and each transport ship can only carry 100 passengers or 50 tons of cargo at a time, far from meeting demand.


In addition, this type of transport vessel is about 30 meters long, which is included in the light frigate level, and cannot be built on production lines built on aircraft carriers. In order to build more transport ships, a small space dock had to be built, and although this had already begun, even if the carrier was equipped with modular materials, it had to be built, it will take another week to complete the construction of this scale.


Even worse, one of the transport ships was damaged ...


These things made Tang Xiao very anxious, not much of a problem when the colony was first built, but it was now getting bigger, and more and more problems. In the past few days, he had no free time to think about issues such as what plot would happen to his future in "Star Wars".He kept going back and forth between the planet Dawn and the aircraft carrier, making various decisions.


However, the benefits of doing so were also obvious, he had instilled all kinds of knowledge in his mind, and now after using it for a period of time, it had greatly expanded, it had greatly expanded, and he's used to a lot of tasks.


If it was more than a week ago, when he had not crossed over and was just an ordinary college graduate, anyone told him that he could manage such a growing interstellar colony, he said, Tang Xiao would have thought the person was talking about a science fiction plot. .


In short, under Tang Xiao's leadership, the colony was still developing in an orderly manner. They formed a hunting team so that the marines could gain practical combat experience, and they could also supplement the colony with meat food...


Find mines on the planet Dawn for lime, coal, and raw metals...


Open farms and fruit fields to grow native crops, and build closed hydroponic farms to grow rice, wheat, corn, and other crops carried by aircraft carriers.


Build steel mills, cement plants, sewage treatment plants, power plants, water plants, and more.


And build roads, airports, install pipes and power lines.


And the most difficult step is waste. Because on this primitive ecological planet, it is very difficult to plan how to dispose of and plan the waste and wastewater generated by factories, as well as household waste.


The biggest problem is that 95% of the area of the Morning Star is soil, so most of the water is underground, which also poses great difficulties for waste disposal.


Because there are no rivers to dispose of waste, and no oceans to treat waste. If dumped into the groundwater network, it is estimated that within a year, all creatures on the planet could only drink sewage water.


So as soon as I went to check out the colony and saw the residents one by one looking for a place to dispose of the dirt, Tang Xiao felt offended. After returning to the carrier, he began to talk about a very serious problem with Daphne Clement.Then he would build a giant dirt collector on the hill next to the colony to collect all the dirt, he said, then build a dam to use dirt to generate electricity.


It was not without reason that he thought so, because he had done this in a certain game before. He thought that since the in-game spacecraft could be realized, then the dirt collectors that could be realized in the game should also be able to do.


After all, you don't know if someone has constipation, do you?


In addition, seasonal problems should also be considered, what if the stool in the dirt collector becomes frozen in the winter? You still need a heater, right? This all must be noticed!


In order to strengthen his persuasiveness, Clement also ordered Guan Yan, an energy expert who was eating, to explain that Guan Yan was innocent, although he immediately spewed out the lunch he had just eaten after hearing this topic, But he still worked hard to help Clement convince Tang Xiao.


Seeing that this solution would not work, Tang Xiao asked them how many water purification plants would it take to repeatedly purify the sewage water into drinking water?


Clement and the others were stunned by Tang Xiao's idea. They called Qu Xuewen and Feng Yongwang over again, and along with the earnest persuasion of some experts, Tang Xiao finally canceled the idea of power generation and dirt recycling, he said, and finally He did not let himself drift with such an idea.


This interesting topic still needed to come to a conclusion, so they continued to discuss for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that a giant dirt collector still needed to be built, he said, but it cannot be built on a mountain, otherwise, if the embankment breaks, it will cause odors everywhere.


The purpose of its construction was not to generate electricity, but to facilitate the delivery of manure into space after a large interstellar transport ship, such as sending it to two stars in the middle of the galaxy Endor.


Then Tang Xiao, who had another idea, raised another topic, which was, after this plan was put into practice, wouldn't the Endor galaxy where the Dawn star was located be a system orbiting two dirt-smelling stars?


Of course, these were all solutions that were to come, and eventually they decided to form the Ministry of Public Health to deal with this problem. While making this decision, Tang Xiao had no idea that he had created the most terrifying department in the history of the Milky Way.


However, Tang Xiao quickly broke away from this interesting topic, at this moment, he stirred a bowl of pale chocolate with a spoon in satisfaction, eating from time to time, he said, while chatting with the newly awakened elites, the Sociologists discussed a very important topic .


There were no snacks on the aircraft carrier, so Tang Xiao could only use this half-finished item to satisfy his tongue.


"Managers, what we have to consider now is the development of the colony. At the moment, our development is not big, and everyone is around you, that's very good. But if we keep growing, this is not enough, you should look at my proposal ..." Sociologist named Norris Barry said to Tang Xiao solemnly.


At this moment, Guan Yan, who was carrying a lunch box, passed by, looked at Tang Xiao, and said casually: "Ah, you are here, manager, by the way, there is one thing, there is one thing, the infrared laser weapon analysis is very smooth, it should be able to finish before. We're going to do our first weapons test this afternoon, are you going to go see him?"


"Ah, no problem, I'll go in the afternoon." Tang Xiao replied, he completed the initial analysis of the infrared laser weapon in just a week, and he felt that he should praise her a few words, she said, but suddenly he got stuck and didn't know what to say. What, so he took the pale chocolate in his hand and said to Guan Yan, "Do you want to eat it?"


Seeing the bowl of sticky brown things that Tang Xiao stirred into a spiral shape, Guan Yan's face darkened and he quickly refused, "Uh, no, I don't have much appetite ..."


"Ah, what a pity, it's pretty good." Tang Xiao shook his head regretfully, stirred the bowl again, then took out a large spoonful of sticky food and put it in his mouth to eat.


Guan Yan's face turned from black to green, and he didn't want the box lunch in his hand, so he turned around and ran away while covering his mouth.
