Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 1599: Big construction starts!
The next day.

Dongfeng led the caravan away from the trading market, taking with him some daily necessities and food.

The madman is stationed in South Paradise and needs supplies.

The equipment and some raw materials from the greenhouses in the Southern Paradise Chemical Plant have not yet been moved.

In addition to the things on the destroyer, Dongfeng and his team would have to move things back and forth many times.

The construction of the water plant also officially started today.

The entire oil city was put into operation. Xie Changshan served as the chief engineer of the water plant construction and could mobilize all the manpower in the base except the operations department.

Time is tight, and so far, two thousand ditch digging workers have been recruited.

Three designers and 200 water plant builders.

And the relevant personnel needed for the construction of the water plant.

There are 2500 people in total.

Just last night, Third Uncle, Jie Changshan, Fang Jingxin and three other designers, together with Third Uncle and his team, finally finalized the general construction plan for the water plant. The specific construction of the plant building, water diversion channels, sedimentation tanks, etc. have not been determined.

Because the time was too tight, only one month,
They can only build and plan at the same time.

Otherwise, according to the process of building a water plant before the end of the world, the project must be established first, and then bidding must be conducted. Each contractor will design drawings, prepare cost estimates, and submit bids.

Determine the standard and then start the work.

This process alone may take several months.

They don't have that much time to waste in these places, and they don't have to go through such cumbersome procedures.

The target plan has been roughly determined, the people have been fully recruited, and the required materials can be temporarily used in the warehouse while searching for related equipment and materials.

Designing, building and searching for materials simultaneously.

Only in this way can it be completed within a month.

Xie Changshan came to the North District Office Building.
3th floor.

The water plant built a temporary office, where three designers were still drawing blueprints for the water plant.

These three people were dug out by Xie Changshan a long time ago. They were originally survivors of the trading market.

They specialize in drawing blueprints of various buildings in the oil city, such as a street in the commercial district, an ancient cemetery bunker plantation, a wood products processing plant, a chemical plant, and a cement plant.

Buildings such as self-built houses in rural areas, or sheds for migrant workers and farmhouses do not require blueprints.

Because the structure is simple, construction workers only need to have a general idea of ​​it.

However, some complex buildings, like this water plant, definitely require blueprints. Without blueprint planning, many details cannot be taken into consideration, which can easily lead to mistakes during construction.

The designed drawings can provide construction workers with detailed plans, so that construction can be carried out faster.

"What's going on? The drawings haven't come out yet?" Xie Changshan pushed the door open, his tone full of urgency.

If the blueprints are not out, the work at the trading market may be delayed, resulting in an extension of the construction period.

The ditch outside can be dug first, but it is better to have a blueprint for the project inside the trading market.

Wang Peng sat in front of the computer with dull eyes, haggard face and messy hair.

After hearing Xie Changshan's voice, he turned his head and sighed:

"Chief Engineer Xie, the time is too tight. We have been working all night for two days."

Xie Changshan was in no mood to listen to his complaints, "Can you come out at noon today?"

"Not at noon. The time given is too short." Wang Peng said with a wry smile.

Xie Changshan said in a serious and commanding tone:
"I want to see your design drawings at 12 o'clock tonight at the latest."

"There are still 16 hours left. You must get it done within this time."

"I will come over at twelve o'clock tonight and review the drawings with you to make adjustments. We must finalize the design drawings before tomorrow morning!"

"With the blueprints, we can start construction of the project in the trade fair tomorrow."

After listening to this, Wang Peng's heart trembled.

Having stayed up for two all-nighters, Xie Changshan's words meant that he would not be able to sleep again tonight.

Except for going to the toilet, the three of them hardly left the office in the past two days.

In the past two days, they couldn't bear it anymore so they lay on the table and took a nap for more than ten minutes, and then continued designing after waking up.

Wang Peng looked at the two designers, Ma Hong and Sun Kang, and nodded with difficulty:

"Okay, we'll try our best."

"It's not about trying your best, it's about having to!" Xie Changshan said, staring at them.

One month has passed, two days have passed, and there are 28 days left.

We have to rush to finish the work every day.

As the chief engineer of the water plant, he not only has to focus on the design drawings, but also has to take charge of personnel recruitment, ditch digging locations, and even water intake sites.

"Okay!" Wang Peng nodded.

"But."

"But what?" Xie Changshan pulled a stool and sat down.

He is very anxious now, as he has to go outside the trading market and supervise the digging of the ditch. It will probably be evening when he returns.

It will be very troublesome if there is a problem with the drawings.

Wang Peng and the others’ questions must be answered clearly before he can leave with peace of mind.

Wang Peng pointed to the design drawing on the computer and asked:
“Why aren’t water plants built near water sources? Generally speaking, water plants are built near water sources, which saves space for trading markets. Also, building water plants in places with abundant water sources makes it easier to store water.”

Xie Changshan raised his eyebrows when he heard this question.

"It's very simple. The water source is ten kilometers away from the trading market, at Nanwan Lake. If we build a water plant there, we will not only have to build a water plant, but also a defense wall to prevent the zombies from approaching Nanwan Lake. Otherwise, even if the treated water source is polluted again, then building a water plant will be meaningless!"

"Nanwan Lake is so large, building a defense wall would be a huge undertaking!"

"So, we must build a water plant in the trading market. After diverting the water from Nanwan Lake to the trading market, we will centrally process it, and the treated water can be used directly!"

Wang Peng suddenly realized that according to Xie Changshan’s meaning, it was actually to ensure that the treated water source would not be polluted again.

Just think about it, zombies love water. Nanwan Lake has an area of ​​75 square kilometers, which is larger than 10 West Lakes in Hangzhou. They are currently unable to stop the zombies from entering Nanwan Lake.

It is almost inevitable that there are zombies in the lake, and they can only transport the water to the trading market for processing.

"I understand!"

"Do you have any other questions? Ask them all at once. Let me see the design drawing." Xie Changshan dragged a stool closer to Wang Peng.

"No other questions. The design isn't finished yet, but I'll show it to you first."

Xie Changshan looked at the design and said, "Zoom in and take a look at the sedimentation tank."

Wang Peng moved the mouse and enlarged the design drawing.

After discussion last night, the location for the entire water plant was finally determined to be in the South District.

The East District is a residential area with a large population. There are also many buildings in the East District, so there is very little space left, and there is not enough area to build another water plant.

The western area is an industrial area with serious pollution.

In the North District, there is the office building of the trading market management office, and the training ground also occupies a considerable area. The prison is also here, which is not very suitable.

The most suitable location is the transportation warehouse area in the southern district, where there are relatively few people and a large area of ​​land to be developed.

Xie Changshan looked at their design drawings in the office and gave suggestions for revisions from time to time.

Wang Peng, Ma Hong and Sun Kang recorded Xie Changshan's opinions.

Half an hour later, Xie Changshan finished reading all the drawings, and said with a long sigh:

"There is no problem with the overall design idea. Let's continue designing according to this idea. I will come over in the evening." "Okay." The three said in unison.

"Come on!" Xie Changshan patted them on the shoulders one by one, turned around and left the office.

I went down to the office building and hurriedly got into a car.

He asked the driver:
"Did Liu Yu bring people over?"

"He went out. He took his people out ten minutes after you entered the office building." the driver replied.

"Well, let's get out of town."

Liu Yu was the person he brought from the big camphor tree base. This Liu Yu was also a contractor before and had contracted many projects before the end of the world.

This kind of ditch excavation construction is a piece of cake for Liu Yu.

However, there are more factors to consider when digging ditches in the apocalypse.

We need to fully consider whether zombies will destroy the ditch, so after the drinking water ditch is excavated, bricks or culverts are placed in the ditch, sealed with cement, and filled with soil to make it firm.

The vehicle drove out of the trading market and headed towards Nanwan Lake on the road.

As soon as he left the trading market, he saw workers digging the ground with hoes at the edge of the asphalt road.

The locations on the ground were marked with red-painted wooden stakes. These were the locations they had selected in advance in the past two days. By using the ditches dug with a level and taking advantage of the height difference, they could divert the water from Nanwan Lake to the trading market.

Since it is ten kilometers long, we started digging from the direction of the trading market and continued to Nanwan Lake.

The ditch is set to be two meters wide and two meters high.

A fence will be set up every 500 meters, with an entrance built on top to facilitate later cleaning of the ditch.

The entire excavation site was bustling with activity.

A long line of workers were digging the soil with hoes in the sunshine, and among them were excavators of various sizes.

Such a large project spreads over a length of nearly one kilometer.

There were nearly a hundred supervisors surrounding the team of workers and giving them directives.

These supervisors were drawn from the trading market construction site and have extensive supervisory experience.

Digging a ditch may seem simple, but it is not so easy to implement if it is to successfully bring water to the trading market.

These workers only need to follow the instructions of the supervisors and dig to a certain width and depth at a fixed place, but the supervisors must be very clear about how deep each section of the road needs to be dug.

soon.

He saw Liu Yu standing under a tree in the car.

Liu Yu was talking to several supervisors at this time.

"Stop the car." Xie Changshan said to the driver.

The vehicle stopped.

The ditch was dug alongside the road to maximize the use of existing conditions.

Liu Yu saw Xie Changshan getting out of the car next to him, and quickly said to the supervisors:

"You guys must patrol back and forth, measure repeatedly, and make sure the height of each section of the ditch meets the original setting."

"Otherwise, if there are deviations in height, we will have to redo the work. Let's just get busy."

"Yes." Several core supervisors turned around and saw Xie Changshan behind them.

"Chief Engineer Jie."

"Chief Engineer Jie."

"Yeah." Xie Changshan nodded.

As they passed each other, he looked at Liu Yu and said:

"The digging of the canal is a huge project. You have to keep a close eye on it. The trading market and Nanwan Lake must be connected within 15 days, otherwise it will be too late."

Liu Yu nodded and said:
"Don't worry, Mr. Jie. Fifteen days will be no problem. But I'm worried that when we open up the last section of Nanwan Lake, there will be too many people and too much noise. Then there will be zombies coming out of the lake."

"You don't have to worry about that. There will naturally be a combat team coming to clean up the zombies and escort the construction team." Xie Changshan replied.

"Then I'm relieved."

"Come with me and follow the excavation route again to see which parts need to be adjusted."

"okay."

"Bring your measuring tool and level."

"Row."

The sun is shining brightly.

Zhang Meng, the leader of the Flywheel Gang, and other gang members including He Liangwei, picked up hoes and dug the soil one hoe at a time.

Hey yo, hey yo!
Zhang Meng tucked his coat into his trouser waist and spat into his hands.

Dig into the soil vigorously.

"Brother Meng, we are digging here. What should we do if zombies approach?" He Liangwei asked while digging.

Zhang Meng wiped the sweat off his face and said:
"What are you afraid of? There are so many of us. If a zombie comes, we can just beat it to death with one hoe."

"Besides, look over there."

Zhang Meng pointed to a small hill not far away and said, "There are people watching over there. If there are zombies, they will definitely sound the alarm."

He Liangwei looked at the gunmen on the hillside and nodded, "That's fine."

"Let's work. One extra point for every day's work. You can get it in your hands with ease!"

"Uh-huh."

As time passed, the sun hung high in the sky.

The temperature rises.

Some workers couldn't stand it anymore and took off their shirts and worked with their bare chests.

None of them had a fat belly. They were either skinny or very skinny. The muscles they had were not the kind that were trained in the gym at the end of the world. Although they were not good-looking, they were really powerful.

Good endurance and strength.

"It's time for dinner—"

Just at this moment, several pickup trucks drove over, and a horn on the pickup trucks kept repeating the same thing.

The supervisor saw the pickup truck coming and shouted to the workers who were digging:
"Take a break, rest and eat something!"

Zhang Meng's upper body was bronze in color, with a layer of sweat oozing out of the surface of his skin, making him look very strong.

He pushed the hoe into the soil with force, and the hoe stood on the soil.

He rubbed his hands, took his own food bowls with his brothers, and walked towards the pickup truck.

There was a clean sheet on the two pickup trucks in front, and the tortillas were spread on it.

From a distance, the tortillas looked like a small mountain.

There is a huge bucket on the two pickup trucks at the back, and water can be collected by turning on the faucet.

Under the guidance of the supervisor, Zhang Meng and his companions lined up to receive a tortilla and a bottle of water.

The entire tortilla was the size of an adult's face, dry and thick.

Although this tortilla weighs only three taels, it is somewhat similar to compressed biscuits. The moisture inside has been baked dry and it has almost no moisture, making it very solid.

So every time you eat it, you have to eat it with water, otherwise it will be too dry and difficult to swallow.

One of these tortillas is enough to feed an adult.
