MC's career as foreign lord

“Another very pleasant day!” Zhou Ren said, patting the two white, fleshy bottoms beside him. “Hurry up and greet your clansmen. Why are you still sleeping in bed?”

“Is that why you desperately tormented us two last night?” Anna grumbled, still lying on the bed.

“They all know where to go and will settle themselves in. I can’t. I’m so sleepy. I want to sleep a little longer!” She said, wrapping herself in a quilt.

“Me too!” Xia’s delicate face seemed to be covered with a layer of wax. She quietly raised her eyes and glanced at Zhou Ren. “You should go make your own power generator, or you’ll be late again!”

“Alright…” Zhou Ren sighed, momentarily at a loss for words. He leaped up and left the room.

He still had to continue researching the bio-generator today, so he couldn't stay here for too long. After all, good times don't last forever, right?

After hastily eating some breakfast, and leaving a portion for the two in the house, he returned to the woodworking shop.

In order to better research various forestry creations here, he had specially built a simple woodworking shop. After simply assembling it with various types of wood, it could be used very well.

Moreover, he now had a box for other sundries here. Whether it was food, various tools, or even some armor, they could all be placed in the box to save space and solve food problems on the spot.

On the other side of the woodworking shop were batches of various tools from forestry. Even the rainmaking machine was among them. And his task today was naturally to finish making various power generation devices while also categorizing all the different machines.

If there was time, he could also make some other types of harvesters. His long-awaited automated farm seemed to finally be harvest time.

As the saying goes, the simplest power source now is naturally the generator's power engine, but the power engine itself is not simple at all.

Since there is currently no linkage with any power modules, the only clumsy way for him to generate electricity is the biomass generator.

So the first thing he needs to do is to create a biomass generator, just like other forestry tools. Compared to the complex and cumbersome settings of various generators in some large modules, and different types of power generation machines, the tools here are actually much simpler.

The materials for making this generator are directly displayed in front of him. In addition to 6 gold ingots and two pieces of glass, he only needs a simple sturdy component. He had made many sturdy components before, and now he just needs to take them and use them, which won't take long.

However, if there is an ordinary biomass generator, of course it is not enough. The good news is that this generator does not need a gear engine to provide power for power generation. The fuel inside only needs to be burned to obtain enough electricity, and this burning is not a very simple flame burning, but rather a fermentation and energy production of fuel.

What he needs to do now is to make biomass, or biofuel. This is not an easy task. He must consider the amount of fuel that different plants can ferment. The most, of course, are saplings, followed by various ordinary plants, such as mushrooms, sugar cane, and cacti. The lowest, of course, is wheat.

Moreover, the fermentation ratio is also related to the type of fermentation agent. The lowest is naturally water, with a fermentation ratio of 1:1, but if you add juice or various honeys, the fermentation ratio can reach 1.5.

However, after slightly researching the value of these items, he decisively gave up the idea of using various things for fermentation, after all, it was a bit unworthy.

He still used the biogas engine that he hadn't used up in the past two days. Milk and magma were things he would never lack, so using a biogas engine to provide power to the fermenter was not bad.

When the biomass generator is truly on the right track in the future, it can also be directly connected to an electric engine for power generation. Anyway, the manufacturing method of the electric engine is very simple, and he has even made many of them and placed them next to him for backup.

This is actually a very interesting special cycle in a certain sense. The interesting thing is that electricity is generated through a biomass generator, and then used to run an electric engine, and the electric engine is used to power the fermenter and distiller, and the energy produced by the fermenter and distiller continues to provide fuel to the biomass generator.

This is like a perpetual motion machine-like cycle setting, which is the inside story of how this machine can truly run. In the future, through the connection of various power pipelines, a biomass generator should be able to run all the electrical machines in an entire area. Of course, now it is only the initial stage, and their generators have not even been set up successfully.

Zhou Ren continued to do the preparatory work. In addition to the fermenter, he also needed to make a distiller. After all, the efficiency of generating electricity from the biomass fuel produced by the fermenter was too low. By distilling it through a distiller and shaping it into a special biofuel or ethanol, its power generation efficiency would be greatly improved.

The efficiency of this improvement is actually very high. It is probably that if you generate electricity with organic matter fermented by an ordinary fermenter, you will lose money, but if you generate electricity with ethanol or biofuel, you will not lose money.

Because the efficiency of an ordinary biomass to generate electricity is about 8100EU, but the power generation efficiency of each barrel of biofuel is 32,100EU, which is about 4 times higher, and only 3 portions of biofuel can be converted from every 10 portions of biomass, which is about 1/3 of the amount.

Calculating it this way, it is naturally more cost-effective to re-convert biomass into biofuel through a distiller. The distiller is also very simple, like the fermenter, they both need a sturdy component and 4 pieces of glass to make, but the 4 corners of the fermenter need to be placed with four bronze gears, while the 4 corners of the distiller are 4 redstone dust.

Bronze gears are a bit troublesome to make. In addition to 4 bronze ingots, you also need a cobblestone, so 4 bronze gears require 16 bronze ingots, which is still a bit difficult to make, and their bronze is not much left.

The person had to run to the smelting furnace to combine three copper ingots and one tin ingot into bronze. One was certainly not enough, so they synthesized many.

There is actually a very excellent meme here, that is, the difference between Forestry and Industrial Steve. In Forestry, Steve is a god, a strong man who can knead alloys with his hands, while in Industry, Steve is simply a weak chicken, and he needs to make all kinds of blocks into powder to make alloys.

Fortunately, what he had was the Forestry Module, which didn't require the complex industrial processes. This made things much easier for him. All sorts of alloys could be made using the simplest crafting recipes. No wonder they were complaining; this crafting method was simply God playing a joke.

Compared to the smelting furnaces that required melting into liquid and then combining, he directly took these metal nails in his hand and conjured a bright, yellow bronze gear. It was indeed shocking. But when he directly retrieved a wooden-like copper fermentation tank from the crafting menu, everything naturally reached its peak.

Besides the fermentation tank, the still was also made. Next, it was naturally time to make biomass fuel.

In fact, the usage of the fermentation tank is very simple. It mainly has several points. The first is the fermentation liquid pipe, where you can manually fill the liquid to be fermented. The second is the fermentation raw material slot, which is basically filled with various organic materials. Next is the fermentation origin, where you can store fertilizer or compost. Of course, any unused fertilizer will also be stored within.

Next to it is naturally the finished product. After the liquid in the liquid pipe is fermented, the biofuel will be stored in the biofuel finished product liquid pipe on the side. Next, you only need to put an empty bucket or empty can in the final loading area to take out all the stored fermented biofuel.

This very simple fermentation mode indeed has no difficulty. Zhou Ren took out some saplings. Anyway, the tree farm had already been made. In just one night, it had already stored many stacks of saplings. He could easily take out all the saplings and load them in.

As for the infinite water source, it was even simpler. He directly dug a well next to it, so he could directly scoop enough water with a bucket as a fermentation agent and fill it all up.

One sapling can ferment 0.8 buckets of biofuel. He directly put in a stack, which was enough to ferment 41 buckets. With this conversion ratio, he directly loaded all 41 buckets of biofuel into the still. As the distillation progress bar continued to expand, he could see the biofuel tank constantly increasing.

According to the ratio, 41 buckets of biofuel can be fermented into 12 buckets of biofuel. This can generate 128,000 EU of electricity, enough to provide the use of all the machines on site in a short time. So, while these machines were cycling, he also simply made the pipelines and various connecting devices and supplied energy to each machine. He even made more than 20 electric engines in one go, connecting all the machines.

As for some clockwork engines and gear engines, they can be used specifically for the lumber mill or individual tools, also used to save electricity and time.

Following the same method, he made another biomass generator and placed it specifically on the tree farm side. At this time, the site of the tree farm had been completely leveled, and all the planting areas for a dozen trees had been planted. He only needed to install a simple automatic lumberjack to get a very convenient tree-cutting experience.

Taking advantage of this effort, he even made a Forestry workbench. This is a special workbench synthesized from a book, an ordinary workbench, and a box. Its effect is also very simple. It can remember the last 9 different recipes you synthesized and comes with an 18-slot storage grid.

This also means that you can directly click the already stored recipe with the left mouse button to put the items in the recipe directly into the crafting table.

Next, you only need to put all the things on your body into the storage grid, and it can synthesize them for you. Moreover, you can even completely lock those recipes as your exclusive synthesis recipes without worrying about them being covered by other synthesis recipes.

Especially some mods, when installed together, will have a performance called synthesis conflict, that is, the same materials will synthesize different things in different mods. But after having this workbench, he doesn't have to worry about this problem.

Those conflicting mods will be completely eliminated by this workbench. You only need to select below to synthesize anything you want.

He also placed this synthesis table next to these woodworking machines, used as a supplement for daily synthesis. Next, he only needs to do some simple construction here to achieve self-sufficiency.

Then he also made some Survivor's Pickaxe or Survivor's Shovel-like things. These two things are actually not much stronger than iron pickaxes, but the benefit is that they can be directly made into pickaxe emergency kits and shovel emergency kits in the woodworking machine.

These are two special materials that can be stacked. They can even be stacked into a group, and if you gently exert force on them, a whole set of survivor tools will fall out, which can also be regarded as easy-to-carry mining tools.

In this way, you can carry all these tools on your body without worrying about the pickaxe in your hand suddenly breaking and having no replacement.

In addition to making the beekeeper's suit, that is, making a set through silk, which cannot be damaged but can well resist bee attacks, he also prepared to make a simple tool, which is the portable multi-analyzer.

In fact, before making this instrument, he also specially used the remaining silk to upgrade all kinds of backpacks on his body. In this way, even if he is thrown into a different world where no one is around next time, he can still rely on the various materials accumulated in these backpacks to give himself a very complete upgrade.

Next, naturally, he had to make the portable multi-analyzer first. This is a special thing used to raise bees. Although he himself doesn't need it, Anna would probably like it very much.

This silver dragon seems to be a little addicted to raising bees. Recently, these two days, she stays in the beehive every day, but those bees are not easy to observe in particular, so raising them is very troublesome, and it is also easy for some bees to die accidentally.

But the portable multi-analyzer will not have this situation. It can not only analyze the environment, working speed, various honey-collecting objects, and different reproductive capabilities and special activity ranges required by various bees, but also can collect them all in the instrument.
