Chapter 193: Use of plants

This kind of breath-promoted plant can only survive for a few months. The

vines are very tender when they sprout, and after being cut off, they can peel

off the strands of filaments, which are extremely precious materials. Even on

the island of the world, only a few people can afford to wear such clothes.

When the vines grow up, they will become thicker and harder. It is difficult

to process, and the color will become dull. The elves usually use it to repair

houses and make armor, but the most indispensable thing on the world island is

all kinds of good woods. Therefore, the aging golden vines in the manual are

only listed as a substitute for another fast-growing vine. among them.

However, when the first batch of samples were sent to Jinsui City, Xia Fan

quickly noticed that it is extremely tough and has high strength itself, which

makes it suitable for use as a cushion. Especially under the control of the

elves, it also has a certain degree of clinging and can wrap around solid

objects on its own.

This idea was immediately applied to the mechanism beast.

Facts have proved that the combination of the two has an excellent effect. The

impact of the rigidly connected skeleton is immediately reduced by more than

half. The vines entangled are like muscles attached to the bones. Each

contraction will absorb a lot of kinetic energy and lose pressure. It will be

released again, disguisedly increasing the flexibility of the organ beast.

Compared with the prototype that can only move at low speed, the sports

performance of this new product has been greatly improved.

Of course, the actual benefits gained by adding cushioning joints are not the

only ones. For example, the wear of wood and the durability of the Tiandong

instrument are all improved due to the impact reduction. Compared to the

flexibility that is visible to the naked eye, these advantages are not so

noticeable.

Xia Fan had been having trouble with the fragility of the wood. The most

straightforward solution is undoubtedly to replace the wood with metal. But

relying on a blacksmith's hammer to hammer out a reliable skeleton is

definitely a work that counts for years, not to mention that there is a demand

for mass production.

And now, he has the idea of simply using wood to make the main parts.

Putting aside the fragility, wood has too many advantages-it is easy to

process, has many sources of materials, is lightweight and good, and it can be

repaired wherever it fails. I really want to abandon the Tiandong instrument.

It doesn't hurt to throw away the wooden skeleton.

"What about the price?" Ning Wanjun asked, "I remember the exchange price of

golden vines is not low."

"It's not too low, it should be said to be very expensive." Xia Fan smiled,

"But the main reason for the high price is the small quantity. The tree

spirits have limited seeds, so they will not urge a large number of them on

the way to escape. The product of this product. In addition, there are very

few new shoots of golden vines, so the elves will naturally not reserve too

much."

"So it is more cost-effective to exchange seeds here?"

"Or let them increase the catalytic capacity of the golden stalk, but don't

pick new shoots. According to Ai Li, this thing can grow."

"I have said so much, should I have a try?" Ning Wanjun rubbed her hands and

climbed towards the organ beast.

"His Royal Highness has never manipulated this thing, can it work?" Qiuyue

asked worriedly.

"There shouldn't be any problems, right?" Xia Fan pondered, "As long as she

doesn't work too hard--"

Click!

Before he could finish his words, the organ beast sat on the ground with his

legs raised in the splits.

"your Highness--"

"Wan Jun, are you okay?"

In a blink of an eye, Qiuyue and Mo Yun rushed over together.

Xia Fan couldn't help covering his eyes. This is the disadvantage of using the

Tiandong instrument to make the joints? There is no locking mechanism at the

joints? As long as the operator does not control it, it can turn a circle

more.

In addition to the golden silk vine? There are two other types of seed

products that also make Xia Fan quite favorite.

is the root nodule grass? It can fix the sea sand on the bottom of the

intertwined tree boat until it forms a soft ground. It is also the basis for

the formation of the World Island. It can be said that without root nodule

grass, there would be no place where islanders live today. So even if it can’t

bear fruit? Can’t be used for sewing or processing? Elves will still convert

part of the seeds into rhizobia? To ensure that the rhizomes under the boat

can withstand the impact of the waves.

Xia Fan didn't have any ingenious ideas about this, and he used it as the same

crop. Root nodule plants are generally caused by symbiosis with rhizobia, in

addition to improving soil quality? The biggest role is to fix nitrogen. And

until the chemical synthesis of ammonia process was invented? All nitrogen

comes from natural circulation? This makes most of the land has a nourishing

limit. It can be said that it is the breakthrough of synthetic ammonia that

makes modern fertilizer come out? With chemical fertilizer? Human beings are

able to break the limits of nature? Using a small amount of crops to feed most

people.

In an era when it is difficult to separate the elements? It is obviously more

difficult to make chemical fertilizers than to climb to the sky? It is

undoubtedly a trick to use root plants to provide nitrogen sources. Of course,

if it is just an ordinary nodule plant, the nitrogen yield can be described as

negligible, and it is basically impossible to count on. As a product of tree

spirits, root nodule grass has much more potential than ordinary crops—at

least he has never seen any kind of grass that can convert sea sand into mud a

little bit, and on this basis, breed a vigorous tree boat. .

Of course, the specific fattening effects of root nodule grasses have to be

determined by comparing them with experimental fields, and it will take a year

to say nothing. But even if the effect is not obvious, it can be used to green

the beach and prevent the alkalization of the land around the salt pan. It can

be said that as long as you buy it, you will not lose money.

The other type is the soft bamboo phoebe that is placed at the forefront of

the manual, which is also what Xia Fan originally thought of as "rainwater

collecting grass".

This plant looks like a shrimp-catching cage, lying on the ground ring after

ring, which can extend hundreds of feet away; it is as thin as a bamboo

pole~www.mtlnovel.com~ and as thick as a bucket. According to the elves, it

has a very wide range of uses on the world island. It can not only collect

rainwater, send water to the residents living in the tree canopy by internal

squirming, but also extract sea water to help the islanders extinguish fires.

In a nutshell, it can be called a biological pipeline, taking on the important

task of water distribution on the world island.

Just because it can pump and drain water, it has enough attractiveness.

Whether it is salt pans or farmland irrigation, there is a stage where it

shines.

But this is not what Xia Fan is really attracted to.

Pumping water can be done by waterwheels and rollovers. At most, it is less

efficient and requires people to step on it. However, Jinxia City is far from

the point of manpower shortage.

What he fancyed was the ability of the soft bamboo phoebe to spray water.

If you let this thing grow at the bottom of the cabin and spray water

continuously, wouldn’t it become an axial flow pump? One is not enough to come

in a row, as long as the more water is sprayed, the more thrust the ship gets.

Compared with the green shuttle that is also stroked by oneself, the swinging

efficiency of the tentacles is undoubtedly much lower than that of the water

spray, and it is not suitable for high-speed sailing by nature. Once the speed

is increased, irregular swings alone will bring huge resistance, but water jet

propulsion does not have this concern at all.

Weak surface power has always been a major hidden danger of Jinxia City.

Dongsheng Guoneng will launch a sailing battleship, and it is guaranteed that

it will be two or three next time, not to mention the West Polar Fleet that

destroyed the World Island.

He doesn't want to let go of anything that can be used as a source of power-

whether it is natural or artificial.
