Chapter 43: Development of Soma
One month after conquering the ancestor of the blood clan, the Didao, Soma ushered in a new peak. The church absorbed talents from all walks of life around the world and sent them to Soma through channels. With the full support of the Z king's family, Soma's basic project finally came to an end.
Food processing factories, textile factories, steel factories, etc., these most basic factories of light industries and heavy industries are the driving force that can promote the rapid development of Soma. Without these industries, everything is a cloud, because these industries are the foundation of all high-tech.
What makes people feel headache is naturally the food problem. Now most of Soma's food is purchased from abroad, and most of it comes from the Z king's house. But this cannot fundamentally solve the problem. Although the people of Soma can eat and will not starve to death, this is ultimately subject to people. This system is too weak. Once something goes wrong, Soma will definitely collapse in the end.
Zhou Jue also reported this question to Zhang Xiaojian.
In the Temple of Sori, Zhang Xiaojian looked at a report in front of him and shook his head. This report was handed to him by Zhou Jue. I hope that Zhang Xiaojian, as the pope, could pray for miracles to speed up the growth cycle of food, and quickly establish a grain production area. Due to the years of war, Soma caused about 60% of Soma's arable land to be abandoned, which was very difficult to reclaim it.
"There is no problem to reclaim these fields, and there is no problem to speed up the growth cycle of food. The biggest problem is that it cannot last long now." Zhang Xiaojian immediately concluded when he saw this report, thinking that it was a bit unrealistic. The main soul has not yet officially been appointed as a god, so there is no priesthood, and there is no bonus in related fields without a priesthood.
The three most important parts of a god are divided into divine fire, divine character, and the last secondary one is the kingdom of god. The priesthood is the concreteization of the functions controlled by a god and the fields involved. It is equivalent to the ability of a god. For example, the priesthood of an agricultural priesthood will be added in areas related to agriculture, such as increasing the yield of crops in the territory of god's faith by 20%.
Of course, the gods will be more powerful when using related magical techniques, and this bonus is very terrifying. A god who has not yet condensed his priesthood and a god with a priesthood. Both are unified strength. With the same divine power, a god with a priesthood can easily defeat a god without a priesthood.
The stronger the clergy, the stronger the gods will naturally make the gods stronger. Just like the clergy of agriculture and clergy of life, the former is far inferior to the latter.
Now the main soul has no priesthood, so if you want to speed up the growth cycle of crops, it will take a lot of divine power and can be maintained in the short term, but it is impossible to maintain it for a considerable period of time.
So the most important thing now is not to shorten the growth cycle of food, but to produce crops that are drought-resistant, require less water, and produce large crops. The food in Africa is mainly rice and corn, and half of Africa's rice is imported from abroad, just like Soma now, but Soma is even more serious, and 80% of the domestic ones have to be imported.
The food produced by Soma cannot meet a quarter of its own population at all. The biggest reason is that in addition to warlords and wars, Soma is more because Soma has too much population and little land. Even if all the wastelands in Soma are reused, Soma still cannot be self-sufficient, at most two-thirds. There are still nearly two million people left who still need to import food.
Therefore, the emergence of a new species can not only solve the Soma food crisis, but also solve the problem of food scarcity in the entire Africa.
Such an action would raise the church to a terrible height in the minds of African people.
When Zhang Xiaojian thought of this, he relaxed. Now it is time for the main soul to help transform a species. The divine power required to speed up the growth cycle of crops is huge, but the divine power required to transform a species may be equally huge. But the advantage is that it only takes one time. And it takes a long time to maintain the growth cycle of crops, and as the coverage area increases, the divine power required will become huge.
"Come here!" Zhang Xiaojian shouted softly. He needed someone to report this matter to Zhou Jue. Let him prepare and free up enough fertile land to save time.
"Crown!" The study door was opened, and a knight of fate walked in from outside the door, half bent down, and called respectfully.
"You go and pass this letter to Cardinal Zhou Jue." Zhang Xiaojian picked up the written letter and put it in an envelope, and handed it to the Knight of Destiny. Now the guards in the temple are mainly Knight of Destiny. There should have been a Dark Knight to guard the temple, but the Dark Knight wanted to guard the Holy Mountain. Zhang Xiaojian let this matter be temporarily put on hold and let the Dark Knight move from the Holy Mountain in the future.
The knight quickly took the envelope and retreated respectfully.
"It should take one week to transform a suitable crop according to the speed of the main soul." Zhang Xiaojian muttered. He had already told the main soul about transforming a high-yield crop that could adapt to the African environment through contact with the main soul. The rest should be done by the main soul.
Zhang Xiaojian looked out the window. Soli Port became more and more prosperous, with an increasing population, and formed a night market. It was very lively all day. It was hard to imagine that Soli Port was still poor a few months ago and was exploited by warlords.
And now the atmosphere of faith is becoming more and more intense, and the atmospheres of city and religion are harmoniously mixed together.
...
"The basic facilities of Luxi and Philip have been restored, and the basic enterprises have also been built. Now we will wait for the construction of the Pope Palace in Luxi City to be completed, and then the founding ceremony will be held." Zhou Jue looked at a report from the two cities in his hand.
Now Soma's communication facilities are only Luxi and Philip, and a total of four cities, the three ports of Soma, have been rebuilt, and the entire Soma communication will be restored soon.
Of course, the re-establishment of communication facilities alone cost a huge amount of money, and it was naturally even more expensive in just a few months. How many people in Soma’s population now understand these industries and technologies, so most of these workers come from various countries.
At this time, a letter was handed over. Zhou Jue looked at the golden holy emblem on the envelope, and his whole body changed completely and became very serious. He carefully opened the envelope and read the letter carefully. After a long time, he laughed, "The Pope's Crown thought of much better than me, thank the Lord!"
He quickly got up and walked out of the lounge. Outside was the center of Luxi City. He looked at the Pope Palace, which was vaguely visible, and the sense of joy became stronger and stronger.
"When the Lord gave the crop, it was comparable to a huge miracle!" Zhou Jue's smile became even stronger. He hurriedly prepared. Now he did not allow a minute to be wasted. If the church is strong, it is time. The church does not have the Roman Catholic Church, Buddhism, and Islamic Church, which have thousands of years of time as a precipitation, and has a huge foundation, and can waste time.
Zhou Jue has been able to meet how powerful the church will be in the future.
...
In the statue space, more and more faith powers condense into liquid dripping on the ground of the statue space. At this moment, the ground of the statue space has been accumulated into a sea by the liquid formed by the power of faith, and sometimes waves will be raised like the ocean.
There are more and more distracting thoughts in the sky, and colorful light is released at all times, making the entire statue space like a dream. In the center of the statue space, a huge divine seat is floating. Tuluo sat on it, releasing the divine light on his body, supporting the entire space.
In front of Tuluo was a sweet potato. Chains of faith composed of divine texts were inserted into the sweet potato, and tentacles that were smaller than the cells of the sweet potato were inserted into the dnd in each cell of the sweet potato. He was preparing to transform the sweet potato in front of him.
Sweet potatoes are the highest yield crop on the earth, reaching 10,000 kilograms per mu, which is five tons. This is a terrible number. Of course, this is a bit inconspicuous for Africa. Africa's land is barren, and even if sweet potatoes are grown, it is impossible to achieve such a high yield.
What Tulo needs to do now is to transform the genes of sweet potatoes so that they can be grown in large areas in Africa, and the yield will be greater, at least doubled.
This seems very easy to Tuluo. Although he is not a true god, he can be regarded as a virtual god. He already has some of the power of gods. Of course, he will also have the most fundamental thing for the gods, that is, transformation and creation. Now the body of the deputy soul Zhang Xiaojian was created by him. Of course, it also has the element of tricks.
First, we need to reduce the demand for water of sweet potatoes, expand the leaves of sweet potatoes, and add new things to it, so that it can speed up the efficiency of photosynthetic reaction, which will naturally increase to one to three times. The stems and leaves can absorb water from the air. This solves the demand for water of sweet potatoes.
And according to the characteristics of some plants, it is added to the sweet potato.
Tuluo's virtual divine character is calculating wildly, and the power of faith pours into the divine character and turns into divine power, and then flows into the sweet potato through the divine character and transforms it.
Although this new sweet potato has been transformed, it still needs to be experimented for a while to prevent some problems. The next time is also the most divine power-consuming. This made Tuluo frown slightly.
"This is more divine power than the plan." Tuluo instantly calculated the divine power needed next, and of course this did not stop him from continuing. He naturally knew that this was related to the status of his church in Africa.
Without any hesitation, Tuluo instantly swept a large area of divine power, directly creating a piece of land in front of him, and again, based on the transformed sweet potatoes as a template, he used his divine power to carve hundreds of sweet potatoes and planted them in the land in front of him. Then he used his divine power to speed up its growth cycle.
During the growth of sweet potatoes, Tuluode used the divine character to calculate the disadvantage and made changes. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
