I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World

Chapter 403: Another way to use skipping rope

"Of course, our company's business scope includes land reclamation and shallow sea island construction projects." Hannah smiled.

"If I want to build an artificial island south of Anga Island near the equator, how much do you estimate it will cost?" Jiang Chen asked with interest.

"South of Anga Island?" Hannah was obviously stunned for a moment. Jiang Chen's question surprised her.

"Any questions?". Seeing Hannah's reaction, Jiang Chen frowned.

"If I remember correctly, the sea area south of Anga Island should be deep sea. Artificial island building is usually done in shallow seas, or is based on natural reefs. The amount of sand and gravel required to build islands in the deep sea will be astronomical." Han Na explained.

"Isn't it okay to build a floating island? It's like a giant aircraft carrier." Jiang Chen asked reluctantly.

"Floating?" Hannah smiled, shook her head and said, "Wouldn't that wave just blow away?"

Hannah shook her head again, "Impossible. If it were a small island, no steel cable could withstand such a terrifying pulling force. In addition, even if such a steel cable existed, the material of the island itself would be a problem. It's like A square kilometer of steel plate dropped on the water will be torn apart by tidal forces in less than a year. Unless you build the island out of titanium, I can't think of a more suitable material."

Titanium alloy is 42% lighter than iron, while its mechanical strength is twice that of pure iron. From an objective point of view, titanium alloy is indeed an ideal material for building floating islands, but the cost

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chen sighed and said.

"Okay. It seems that this matter needs to be considered again."

"I'm sorry I can't help you." Hannah said apologetically.

Although MA Company said it could do nothing, Jiang Chen did not give up. What cannot be done in this world is. But it may not be that difficult in the last days.

After sending Hannah out, Jiang Chen returned to the gym. The discussion about virtual helmets with Xia Shiyu just now was interrupted in the middle of the discussion, and now it is time to continue.

But when he entered, he saw Xia Shiyu wearing a helmet and lying on a recliner.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen did not wake her up, but gently closed the door for her.

"Why don't you take the opportunity to do something?"

At some point, Ayesha came up behind him, reached out and hugged him gently.

"I'm not a pervert." Jiang Chen said with shame.

When wearing a virtual helmet, the five external senses are closed unless the environment around the user experiences high temperatures or significant displacement. Otherwise, the safety mechanism will not be triggered. This is exactly why you must wear a helmet in private space. If you wear this thing in public, you won’t know if you get tampered with.

"I didn't say it was to her." Aisha curled her lips slightly.

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, then turned around, picked up Aisha as she whispered, and then put her on his shoulders.

"Yo? You are getting more and more naughty. You dare to trick me." Jiang Chen reached out and slapped the buttocks "viciously", making a "pop" sound.

"Hmm~"

Struggling to lift her dangling calf, feeling the strong arms, Ayesha let out a soft gasp in her throat. Turn your head. She looked at Jiang Chen with innocent eyes, "I just want to help you and her."

Because of the twisting of his shoulders, a cool touch swept over the side of his face from time to time. For a moment, Jiang Chen was also a little disturbed.

"Oh? What kind of help do you want?" Jiang Chen said with a bad smile.

"I told her to leave it to you tonight." Ayesha said timidly, her eyes drifting to the gym from time to time. She was afraid that Xia Shiyu would wake up from her deep sleep and see her current embarrassment.

Although it is not impossible to break free from Jiang Chen's shackles. But there is no concept of resistance in her concept

sweat! After hearing Aisha's words, Jiang Chen's face was full of black lines.

This is no help. It's just a disservice.

"Can you put me down? Can you stay like this when no one is around?" Aisha asked softly.

"No, I'm going to punish you."

Jiang Chen smiled evilly, ignored her begging for mercy, and carried Aisha towards the gym without saying a word.

As the saying goes, to teach by words and deeds, corporal punishment of "students" naturally has to be done in front of others, right? Anyway, Xia Shiyu probably wouldn't be able to wake up in a short period of time.

It's just a little exciting.

Speaking of which, where is the skipping rope in the gym? I've never used it, so I think I'll have to look for it.

(Don’t get me wrong, it’s not a foul to jump a rope as a penalty.)

Time passed very quickly in the game. Although he was not very interested in games and his understanding was only limited to work needs, Xia Shiyu was still deeply attracted by this dreamlike sense of reality.

The dwarf blacksmith in the blacksmith shop comes from the Doom Mountains and was once a guard under the dwarf king. The beggar on the street corner was once a heroic sailor and sailed to the distant Horn Bay with the kingdom's fleet. The adventurer who boasted about his dragon-slaying achievements in the tavern was actually just a lame farmer. He approached Xia Shiyu, but was ruthlessly rejected and fled amidst the ridicule of the entire tavern.

This world seems alive

Perhaps due to her personality, she chose the profession of a magician who is known for her rigor. However, after registering the account, she did not immediately do the task or rush to explore the wild. Instead, she wandered around the city as a "tourist".

In addition to those NCs that seemed to be alive, what made Xia Shiyu sigh with emotion the most was that in this world, she could see the world clearly without the help of glasses.

That's right, after all, these images don't pass through the retina at all.

In this way, even a disabled person can live like a normal person in this virtual world, right? Looking at the swaying plants and trees, gently sniffing the fragrance of flowers on the tip of his nose, Xia Shiyu said with emotion.

Seeing that it was getting late, she stretched out her finger and swiped in the air, clicking the exit button.

Taking off his helmet, Xia Shiyu stretched lazily and sat up from the recliner. My spirit felt refreshed as never before, as if I had taken a short nap.

But at this moment, she sniffed and frowned slightly.

She always felt that there was a vague strange smell in the air, but she couldn't smell it for a while, but she just felt that her heartbeat was a little faster.

"Illusion?". Muttering, she placed her helmet on the server's shell and walked out the door.

In the corridor, she happened to bump into Ayesha holding an air freshener in her hand.

For some reason, the girl's face turned red. She hid the air freshener behind her back and walked quickly past her with her head buried without saying anything.

strangeness

Xia Shiyu tilted her head slightly, but then shook her head and put the suspicion behind her.

Forget it, there are still business matters that need to be discussed with Jiang Chen(.)
