Forty-eight years of Qianlong

Chapter 237 The Roof of Heilongjiang - Sakhalin

After leaving the mixed river mouth, the fleet crossed the 15-kilometer-wide strait and sailed along the coastline from the west side of Kuye Island.Relying on a nautical chart from later generations, Liu Sheng cleared the way with a patrol boat and led the three boats behind him around the northern part of Bitter Leaf Island.A day later, they came to the mouth of an estuary that Ukanbe called the "Pilentu River".

After the fleet slowed down and moored in a place with slow water flow, Liu Sheng released the drone.Zhao Xin observed from the screen for a long time, and estimated that this place should be the Oha River in another time and space.If so, the location of the oil field should be west of the mouth of the river.

In order to confirm the guess, he first asked Liu Sheng to turn the drone to fly southeast. Sure enough, when the drone flew more than 500 meters southeast of the fleet, a small lake similar to an irregular rectangle appeared on the screen.

Zhao Xin was a little excited, and he immediately said to Liu Sheng, "Fly southeast from this small lake."

The drone continued to fly more than 500 meters away, and another larger lake appeared again.

"No mistake! It's here! From here, go west along the river, and when the waterway narrows, you will find the Oha Oilfield."

Zhang Bo said: "Then where is our camp?"

Zhao Xin smiled and said, "You will know when you go ashore."

The three of them were talking, when a soldier on the deck suddenly walked to the door of the cockpit, and said to Zhao Xin: "My lord, come out and have a look, the color of the river is wrong!"

"The color is wrong?" Zhao Xin went to the deck and looked in the direction of the soldier's finger. Under the sunlight, there was a layer of rainbow-like film floating on the surface of the Piluntu River.

"Oil!" Zhao Xin couldn't help shouting out.His cry startled Liu Sheng and Zhang Bo in the cockpit.

"Where is it? I'll go! It's really oil!" Zhang Bo also jumped and shouted.

Zhao Xin hurried to the cockpit and said to Liu Sheng, "Quick! Fly along the river and see where the oil is coming from! Fly low."

Liu Sheng was in a hurry by Zhao Xin, and the drone flew into the air 50 meters above the river.Swing around to the left, swing to the right, and finally, on the river bank one mile away to the southwest, many black pits appeared.

These pits were obviously not puddles, and some viscous black liquid sprayed out from inside from time to time; some flowed out of the pits, followed the small water fork on the ground, and slowly flowed into the river.

Done!The indigenous oil refining workshop can be built immediately!As for the oil well, the location had to be carefully determined, and the latitude and longitude calculated to compare with the coordinate data of the oil well in another time and space in Zhao Xin's hands.

All that needs to be done now is to land immediately.

So Liu Sheng retracted the drone first, then drove the patrol boat, and slowly approached the shore. When the echo sounder in the cockpit showed that the surrounding water depth was only five meters, Liu Sheng said to Zhao Xin: "We can only go here, It will be stranded any further.”

Zhao Xin smiled and said, "So what if it runs aground? Keep going!"

Liu Sheng immediately reacted, shaking his head and smiling bitterly.He held up the binoculars to observe the situation on the river beach, chose a beach with a lot of bushes, increased his horsepower and drove over.So under the surprised eyes of the other three crew members, the patrol boat landed on the beach by inertia and ran aground on a grassy field full of shrubs.

Wu Kanbei went down from the deck at the stern of the patrol boat to the ground, and tried to step on the surrounding area with his feet, and found that it was no problem for people to walk on it.He turned back on the boat and reported the situation to Zhao Xin.

After Liu Sheng listened, he ordered the drivers of the three boats on the water through the communicator: "From the vicinity of my position just now, you all go to the beach one by one!"

ah?The pilots on the next three boats were all stupid. When Liu Sheng and Deng Fei taught them, they didn't say that they could still do this!If the boat is on the beach, how will it go into the water in the future?

"Chief, this...isn't it appropriate?"

"Don't talk nonsense! Listen to my order, Passenger Ship No. 1, you come first! Pay attention to the speed and listen to my password!"

Amidst the roar of the turbine motor, the No. 1 catamaran passenger ship rushed to the beach with a huge inertia, amidst the exclamation of more than 200 people on board.The ship shook a little, and finally stopped.The two pilots in the cockpit were so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat, thinking that the chief is going to make a fuss, do you want us to push the boat back into the water in the future?God!Please spare us!
Twenty minutes later, passenger ship No. 20 and another patrol boat also landed on the beach successively under the guidance of Liu Sheng's order.

"Okay! You two go and arrange for everyone to disembark. Let the guard company disembark first and pull the cordon! The workers will disembark later."

After explaining the task, Zhao Xin walked to the deck, raised his hand to check the time, it is now one o'clock in the afternoon, there is still time.More than 300 meters south from the landing point is the Great Lake we saw just now.According to Zhao Xin's memory, about 600 meters southwest from the south bank of the Great Lake is a suitable place to live.As for why not camp by the lake, the oil film in the lake is the best reason.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xin said to Wu Kanbei behind him: "Go and call your company commander over."

After a while, the company commander of the guard who got off the passenger ship and was setting up a security task ran over.Zhao Xin ordered him: "Send a squad now and ask them to bring a compass and walk southwest from us. About two miles away is our campsite. Come back immediately after investigating the situation. I report."

"Yes." Although the guard company commander was at a loss, he didn't ask much.He saluted and immediately went to arrange tasks.

More than 400 migrant workers, each with their luggage, daily necessities, food supplies, tools, etc., just unloading the boat will take a long time.After about an hour or so, the squad sent to investigate came back.

"Chief, let's look at that place. There are no traces of indigenous activities around, and there are not many wild animals. The surrounding area is quite flat, there is a small river in the north, and there are many trees around, but it always smells bad. Eggy."

Zhao Xin chuckled: "It's right if it smells, if it doesn't smell, we're still here!"

Because the crude oil here contains mercaptans, and the surface is full of oil pits, the air smells like rotten eggs.However, it is precisely because of this environment that the local Feiyaka people will walk around here when they pass by; and because the water quality is polluted by crude oil, many wild animals do not run here.

do it!Zhao Xin decided that he would not leave until the four boats were filled with diesel!

After all the supplies from the ship were unloaded, Zhao Xin asked the squad he had just dispatched to clear the way, followed by the guard company; while the migrant workers lined up in four long lines, carrying their own daily necessities and tools with their hands on their shoulders, They set off towards Zhao Xin's reserved campsite.

After a while, only Zhao Xin, Liu Sheng and A Miao were left at the landing site.Zhao Xin smiled at A Miao and said, "Close your eyes obediently, and I will show you a trick."

A Miao closed her eyes obediently, fearing that she would not be able to help opening them, she covered her eyes with her hands again.

After a while, I heard Zhao Xin say, "Take off your hands and open your eyes."

A Miao blinked her eyes, looked for the voice and looked at Zhao Xin, only to find in astonishment that the four boats that were sitting on the beach on the river bank had all disappeared!
"Where's the boat?" A Miao asked in surprise.

Zhao Xin clapped his hands and said with a smile: "A trick! It's gone, let's go!"

"Ah?!" A Miao thought to herself, still wearing this?So big four boats just disappeared? !If I knew it, I just peeked at it.So, amidst the laughter of the three of them, they hurried towards the direction of the team.

In a bush more than 100 meters away, a Kuyufiyaka man hiding in the grass was terrified. He covered his mouth, not daring to make a sound, and cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

He saw all that scene just now!

After waiting for a long time, Feiyaka's legs were numb, and he could no longer hear the movement of the three people just now, so he got up slowly with his arms propped up, and turned his head three times towards the south 100 meters away. Go in the direction of the village many miles away.
Before dark, a simple camp surrounded by a wooden fence was hastily set up.In the camp, thirty large grass-green tents have been set up, and each of these tents can accommodate twenty people.

In the open space outside each tent door, one by one camping stoves are blazing.This kind of simple stove welded with pig iron plates is Zhang Bo's masterpiece, and it can burn coal or firewood.At the moment, the dried roe deer meat and wild vegetables presented by the Balk villagers are being stewed in aluminum pots on the fire.Everyone waited for the meat to be fully cooked, then tore open the white flour cakes that had been baked on the boat, soaked them in the soup, poured some chili oil, and immediately it was a delicious dinner.

While eating dinner, A Miao kept looking up at Zhao Xin, trying to understand the trick that Zhao Xin changed in the afternoon.

Seeing the little girl's appearance, Liu Sheng leaned forward with a smile and said, "This is your lord's secret, please don't tell it to outsiders."

After hearing this, Ah Miao nodded ignorantly, and then nodded heavily.

At nightfall, apart from the sentries on guard in the camp, there were still snores in most of the other tents.In the tent of Zhao Xin and the others, A Miao hugged her knees and guarded by the stove to boil water, listening to the other three talking in a daze.

"I didn't expect it. There is so much oil here that it's rushing out. I really want to start work right away and do a big job." It was Zhang Bo who spoke.

"How much oil do you estimate can be refined in a day?" Liu Sheng asked, smoking a cigarette.

"According to what I saw today, I estimate that at the beginning, at least three or four tons can be produced every day. If the output of crude oil is stable, more than ten tons a day will be no problem."

"A dozen tons?" Zhao Xin calculated.The oil tank capacity of the catamaran is [-] liters, and that of the patrol boat is [-] liters. "That's two or three days."

Zhang Bo asked: "By the way, where do you plan to locate the refinery?"

Zhao Xin thought for a while and said, "It must be placed near those oil pits."

The oil pits mentioned by Zhao Xin are the Oha oil fields in another time and space.

Liu Shengdao: "Zhang Bo, are you going to dig an oil storage pool or a raw material oil tank?"

"Let's dig the oil storage pool first, so that it will be convenient to transport the oil back and forth." Zhang Bo turned his head and asked Zhao Xin, "That's right! Have you got everything ready?"

Zhao Xin turned to look at the drowsy A Miao, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, it will be ready before dawn."

Zhang Bo took his notepad, ticked off items on it, and kept chanting: "Collection pool, oil pump, steel pipe, water tank, filter tank, oil storage tank. By the way, you have prepared the oil storage tank." how many?"

"Forty cubic atmospheric tanks, ten are prepared."

Zhang Bo said: "There is another problem. The nearest seaside here is 1.5 kilometers away. Whether it is the Thor or the Jinglei behind it, how to solve it by refueling?"

"It's time to lay the oil pipeline. I bought a batch of marine oil hoses. You need to match the oil pump first. Let's make do with it."

"Tomorrow I'll go to Oha and look around again to see if there is any oil pipeline equipment business."

Zhang Bo sighed and said, "Hey, I really want to install oil production equipment right away. It's a pity, now I can only work as an oil refining workshop."

Zhao Xin also sighed and said, "It's troublesome if there is no oil, and there is still trouble when there is oil. When Deng Fei and the others arrive, the residential area will have to be built here. We have to take advantage of the summer months to quickly set up all the winter facilities. "

It was late at night, and Ah Miao couldn't stand it anymore, her eyelids were fighting.After Zhao Xin waited for her to fall asleep, he quietly walked out of the tent and came to an open space on the north side of the camp.A few soldiers on duty wanted to follow, but he sent them back.After a while, Zhao Xin hurried back to the camp and got into the tent.

At dawn the next day, the guards in charge of guarding the north side of the camp were surprised to find that there were suddenly a lot of supplies in the open space outside the camp.Materials and equipment in one place, and even two excavators.He hurried back to the tent to inform the company commander of the guards. The company commander also just woke up and was shocked when he heard it.He hurriedly called the guards on duty at night and asked what happened last night.

The soldier rubbed his eyes, thought carefully, and then said that Mr. Zhao went out last night.

The guard company commander was promoted from among the more than 300 refugees who first followed Zhao Xin. He understood what was going on as soon as he heard it, and thought that the lord had used "immortal techniques" again.So he strictly ordered the two soldiers not to say a word to the outside world, and when others asked, they could only say that they didn't know.Then he ordered a squad to assemble immediately to guard the supplies outside the camp.

On the other side, Zhang Bo, who got up early, heard the hurried footsteps of the guard company. He went over and saw that a squad of soldiers was trotting out with guns in hand.Looking up again, Zhang Bo was delighted.

After breakfast, Zhang Bo called two worker team leaders, and ran outside with a pen and notebook to check the amount of various supplies.After checking the materials and returning to the camp to see Zhao Xin, Zhang Bo gave his thumbs up in satisfaction.

In other words, except for the small excavator, Zhao Xin prepared all other materials in double copies. Can Zhang Bo be dissatisfied!
In the morning, Zhao Xin asked A Miao to stay in the camp, saying that he had something to go out.Liu Sheng and Zhang Bo led a platoon of guards, called more than 30 migrant workers, brought measuring tools, and rushed to the location of Youyan three miles northwest.

After a day of on-site survey and planning, Zhang Bo determined the location of the crude oil collection pool and the corresponding kiln.In order to prevent the explosion from affecting the production of other kilns, each kiln is separated by 150 meters.On all the planned positions, Zhang Bo led people to mark them one by one with white ash.

Liu Sheng, on the other hand, looked around the scene, determined the positions of several guard posts, and planned to build a wooden observation tower.

On the second day, except for a squad of soldiers who stayed in the camp, more than 400 other people set off with tools.In the afternoon, five deep pits with a side length of ten meters and a depth of three meters had been dug. Some masons had already started laying bricks and plastering in the pits.
Others, under Zhang Bo's "technical guidance", built five tower-shaped brick kilns nearly three meters high with bricks and stones.The interior of the brick kiln is divided into two layers, the bottom layer is the fuel layer, which is used to add firewood; the upper layer is the oil refining layer, and inside is a large iron tank welded with steel plates that looks like a boiler.

There are three openings on the iron tank, and the pipeline on the upper side is connected to the oil storage tank for extracting crude oil; besides the oil pipeline for drainage, there is also a circular airtight hatch on the top; A sealed hatch for later discharge of waste.In addition, a thermometer and a pressure gauge are connected to the side of the iron tank.

Because the local method of oil refining is too polluting, Zhang Bo decided that he and the on-site workers must wear industrial gas masks to work in the future.This kind of indigenous oil refining workshop has no technical content at all. As long as you are courageous, you will have no problem at all, and the quality of the No. 0 diesel produced is excellent!

Zhao Xin told Zhang Bo that because the technical level of these workers in Beihai Town is really poor, they should first do a period of local oil refining, and after they are familiar with the whole refining process, they will replace the environmentally friendly small refining converter.

No way, this is forced by realistic conditions!

　Kuye Island was called "Ku Shuo", "Qu She" and "Mo Ye Jie" in the Tang Dynasty; it was also called "Gu Wei" because of the Guwei people on the island in the Yuan Dynasty; it was called "Kuyi" in the Ming Dynasty Or "Kuwu", in the Qing Dynasty it was called "Bitter Leaf", "Kuye" or "Kuye".

　　In fact, these appellations are different transliterations of the same word.Because it is located at the mouth of Heilongjiang, Kuye Island is called "sahaliyanulaanggahada" in Manchu, which means the top of Heilongjiang's mouth, which is why it was later called "Sakhalin Island".Sakhalin means black, black in Heilongjiang.
