Be the savior from Frostpunk

Chapter 66 Laziness
On the morning of Li Jianghao's return, all the people were gathered together.

The death of Her Majesty the Queen was first announced. This news first came from the survivors of Tesla City, but it was only circulated in a small area, and people were not much touched.

But when their Mr. Mayor personally announced the news, all the citizens bowed their heads quietly and mourned silently.

"The artificiality of the empire and the civilization of mankind will never be cut off here. Citizens, in accordance with His Majesty's behest, everyone is obliged to contribute their own strength..."

Li Jianghao pulled out the banner of Her Majesty the Queen who had never met before, even this body itself has never seen the Queen

But since she is already dead, she will use her remaining energy to help herself.The next thing to do is to make sure that it is a contribution to the continuation of human civilization.

When some people were mourning, they found that there was an extra team in the crowd for some reason. They were wearing red robes, and their exposed limbs were more or less equipped with mechanical prosthetics.

"What are those guys doing?"

"I don't know. They seem to be patients after amputation. They seem to have engineering lenses on their faces. I remember they are workers, right?"

"Yeah, I really don't know what these people are going to do, are they going to learn mechanical knowledge? Engineers are enough for now."

……

People's questions were quickly answered, because Li Jianghao then announced the establishment of the engineering training school, and these people in red robes were the first batch of students.

For subsequent studies, all worker populations can enroll.

Workers whose talent and intelligence have not reached the standard can also learn some basic mechanical knowledge.

Apart from a few interested people, apparently most people are happy with the status quo, and there has been no drastic feedback.

Li Jianghao also announced the completion of Andrew's steam engine. There is almost no noise during operation, and the heat energy of the energy tower can be better transmitted to related buildings through the tracks laid in the city.

Robots that need to be powered close to a steam hub can also be powered by a steam engine.

At the same time, the subsequent use of the steam core will begin to produce greenhouses and even industrial greenhouses when robots are sufficient.

In the game, changing the food source before the blizzard is an extremely dangerous behavior.

But now he has nearly 20 days to prepare, and the plant seeds taken from the only two remaining seed banks in the ark can be quickly put into production.

Because the blizzard was approaching, he was really worried about letting the hunters go hunting in the air hunter's cabin.

When the subsequent temperature drops to minus 80 degrees, all the hunter's lodges in New London will be demolished.

Fortunately, there are enough ingredients stored during this period of time, and more steam cores can be obtained from Tesla. It is no problem to build enough industrial greenhouses to ensure food production.

Anyway, processed ingredients can be stored in cold resource storage stations for a long time, so there is no need to worry about spoilage.

Up to this point, people have not realized what is going to happen next, just marvel that Mr. Mayor has arranged for them.

Because the hunters are almost the only group of workers who are still working now, their reaction was even more excited after hearing the news.

Li Jianghao smiled slightly, and then asked the workers to start building a sufficient number of houses along the intersection extending from the rail station.

When the first wave of refugees arrived, he had to let them all live in a living environment with a suitable temperature.

People are a little puzzled. Four houses have been vacant in the existing residential area planning, which is enough to accommodate 40 people.

Some even began to pray that they would not be chosen to work.

Even though they've just finished mourning the Queen's death, it's as if they're already thinking about how they can live more comfortably without continuing to work outdoors.

Even if their working environment is equipped with matching steam hub heating, people are very resistant to having to work again after a few days of relaxation.

"Can you please stop me from being queued? I'm really fed up with having to wear those thick clothes and work outdoors."

"I'm so old that I don't even have the strength to swing tools."

"Why let the newcomers work, anyway, they live so comfortably when they come, and they will pay the price!"

Li Jianghao frowned. Unexpectedly, rearranging physical work after a few days would actually cause the negative emotions and dissatisfaction that originally fluctuated around 1% to 2% to skyrocket to 10%.

And there is actually a trend of wanting to rise!
Although the people's speeches were noisy, he could still hear them clearly. This group of people was not united at all, and they hadn't realized as a whole yet.

The hope value remains unchanged at 80%.

It seems that human nature is a strange thing, and he didn't foresee the situation where people would appreciate Dade's hard work.

I just didn't expect that even if he gave people a comfortable living environment, there was still no way to heal the laziness of human nature.

After providing extra meals to workers involved in building work and arranging shift changes every two days, the trend of rising dissatisfaction finally disappeared.

Alexander stood in the crowd, scanned the changes in the crowd, and smiled contemptuously.

Next, Li Jianghao finally mentioned the most important news of this meeting.

The arrival of the blizzard.

When the people of New Manchester arrived in New London, Cady told them that a snowstorm was approaching.

Its degree of danger far exceeds all the severe weather that people have faced before.

But at that time, people were used to being comfortable, and not many people took it to heart.

Until today, after Li Jianghao opened his mouth and pointed out its seriousness:
"According to the research of the engineering team, when this blizzard reaches its extreme, the temperature will drop to minus 150 degrees. Even if our energy tower is overloaded, there is no way to ensure the proper temperature of the living environment."

People finally panicked, like pets who grew up in a greenhouse, they were carried into cold water and doused all over, wishing they could fly away.

The dissatisfaction value began to grow rapidly, reaching 30%.

Hope dropped to 64%.

"According to calculations, the closer the area to the exit of the rail station will not be hit by the most severe blizzard due to the depression terrain here, the situation will be better."

After Li Jianghao finished speaking leisurely, he sat down and waited for the people to calm down.

People who had been pushing back for a while just now couldn't help being stunned when they heard this.

Would it be safer to live in the outer houses?
People have no time to think, but will immediately think about the news they received.

As a result, people's attitudes have changed, and enough people are willing to participate in the construction of houses.

I just hope that when the time comes, the number of places to live there can be ranked by myself.
