Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Early the next morning.

Huachen flew the helicopter away from the Dazhangshu base.

Ever since Li Yu’s plane crash, helicopters have always been sent out in numbers of two or more.

So, in addition to the Brilliance helicopter, there was another helicopter accompanying them.

It is impossible for two helicopters to fly to the North empty.

So they filled it up overnight last night, and recently produced the coagulants and disinfectants needed by the water plant.

Every flight mission cannot be empty-handed, and some supplies needed by other branch bases will always be carried over.

This time is no exception.

Two helicopters were flying in the sky, and the exposed ground was dry.

The weeds on the barren fields were withered and the yellow soil was cracked.

The impact of drought on the environment is slowly becoming apparent.

The sun is scorching. It is already the end of October, but the temperature is still above 30 degrees.

After three hours of flight, the helicopter arrived in Oil City.

Zhong Chuchu and the apron staff went over to move the things out of the helicopter and filled the helicopter with fuel.

Hua Chen and three other pilots got off the helicopter.

"Director Zhong, do you know where He Ma and the others are?"

Zhong Chuchu raised her head upon hearing this, pointed in the direction of the cafeteria and said:
"At this point, they should be in the cafeteria."

"Where's Director Luo?"

“He should be there too.”

"OK, thanks."

Hua Chen hasn't seen He Ma for a long time, but they used to have a very good relationship.

I have always been in Lao Luo's team before, but because we live in different places, we always see each other after a month or two.

He Ma is now based in the Oil City, specifically responsible for helicopter-related tasks.

"Let's go to the cafeteria to find Lao He and the others."

Hua Chen led the three drivers towards the cafeteria.

at noon.

The cafeteria was crowded with people and there was a long queue at the food window.

Huachen looked around in the huge cafeteria.

"Lao Hua! What are you looking at? Here!" He Ma saw Hua Chen at the cafeteria door and quickly stood up and shouted.

Hua Chen heard the voice and looked over, and saw He Ma in the southwest corner of the cafeteria.

At that dining table, besides He Ma, he also saw Director Luo.

Seeing the familiar faces, Hua Chen and his companions became a little excited and trotted towards them.

"Captain Luo."

"Captain Luo."

"Captain Luo."

Luo Sanchang put down the spoon, and after seeing Hua Chen and the others, he said with a smile:
"Here we go, how long will it take?"

"One and a half hours. We'll go to the North Border in an hour and a half." Hua Chen replied quickly.

They used to be soldiers under Lao Luo, and were members of the commando team led by Lao Luo.

So they habitually call Lao Luo Captain Luo.

Lao Luo thought for a moment and said, "One and a half hours is quite tight. Go get your food quickly, then come over and chat. Then you can take a half-hour break."

It is very tiring to fly a helicopter continuously, especially from the headquarters base to the north border, which takes a whole day to fly.

"okay."

Huachen said as he was about to queue up.

Lao Luo frowned when he saw the long queue. It would take half an hour to get through such a long queue, and now is the peak dining time.

So he stood up, walked over to Huachen and said, "Follow me."

Hua Chen and his friends were confused and followed Lao Luo to the kitchen in the back of the cafeteria.

"They are on a tight schedule. They have to fly to the North in an hour and a half. The line outside is too long. Please bring me some food for them now."

When Su Qian saw that it was Director Luo and heard what he said, she didn't dare to refuse.

As a senior figure in the Dazhangshu faction, Lao Luo still has some power.

Su Qian personally packed four full meals for Hua Chen and the other three.

"Thank you." Hua Chen thanked Su Qian.

Su Qian waved her hands to indicate that it was nothing.

On the way back to the table, Lao Luo asked with a smile: "The headquarters base is also building a water plant now. How is the progress?"

Huachen was holding the food and recalled the scene of the construction site he saw when he left the headquarters base today.

"We're still digging the ditch, but it should be finished soon."

"Well, you came here mainly to deliver coagulants and disinfectants this time?"

"No. This is incidental."

Hua Chen continued, "The president asked us to go to the northern border to pick He Chao up."

"He Chao?" Lao Luo was stunned.

He knew about Jia Tan's rebellion, and he felt sorry for He Chao being removed from his post.

He Chao is considered an old employee of the Dazhangshu Base. When he first joined the Dazhangshu Base, it was He Chao who received him and allocated housing for him.

If they have any problems, they can go to He Chao and he can help them solve them quickly.

So he had a very good impression of He Chao and felt that He Chao was a very capable person.

Lao Luo thought about it and sat on the long bench behind the dining table.

"Take He Chao back to the headquarters? What are you going to do?"

Hua Chen also sat down and put the food on the table.

"It is said that Buffer City lacks a head of internal affairs, so maybe he was asked to come back for this matter." Hua Chen replied after thinking for a while.

"Oh, that's how it is."

Lao Luo nodded, thoughtfully.

He Chao stayed in the Dazhangshu base for many years. Although some changes caused him to leave the headquarters base, he was transferred back after only three or four months.

It seems that the city lord still recognizes He Chao.

If ordinary people are transferred away from the center of power, it is difficult for them to return.

He Chao is different.

Everyone was eating here and chatting about the past.

The content of the conversation started from reminiscing about the past, and soon focused on the construction of the water plant.

He Ma said:

"The water plant is now connected, and the dock seems to have been built in the past two days? Captain Luo, you have more information. When will the water plant be built?"

Lao Luo ate the last grain of rice.

He smashed his mouth and said:

"What's today's date?"

"October 21st." Hua Chen replied.

Lao Luo calculated and said, "The minister has given Xie Changshan an order to build it in a month. It should be completed around the sixth or seventh of next month."

He Ma said leisurely: "I heard from the survivors who came in that there is no water in many places outside now, and the only way is to get water from large rivers or lakes."

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately sparked discussion among everyone.

"I've heard that too. If the drought continues like this, there might be big problems."

"Yes, so now the headquarters base and Oil City have started to build water plants."

"Don't worry, once the water plant is built, the water supply problem will be solved!" Lao Luo comforted everyone.

"But what if it never rains?" someone suddenly asked.

As soon as this question came up, everyone fell silent.

It never rains, then.
When Hua Chen thought of the consequence, he shuddered.

If it never rained, what would the world be like? He couldn't imagine it, but many people would die. Even human extinction was possible.

Lao Luo broke his silence, "It won't rain all the time. It doesn't make sense for science not to rain. Water vapor evaporates and forms clouds. The small raindrops in the clouds are affected by gravity and fall naturally."

"But.."

Hua Chen asked back: "But the frequent natural disasters in recent years do not conform to natural logic."

Lao Luo had no way to answer. What he had just said was already his limit. That was all he knew about natural science.

"Why think so much? This is the job of the natural environment science research experts at the headquarters base. Besides, have we ever been defeated by natural disasters so far?" Lao Luo said firmly.

"Haha, yes."

Everyone joked around and skipped over the topic.

"Hua Chen, you can help me when you go to the North this time."

Meanwhile, on the shore of South Bay Lake.

Xie Changshan personally directed the construction workers and arranged the laying of cables.

These cables are buried under the cover.

"Over there, use the crane to pull the roof frame over here!" Xie Changshan shouted towards the crane on the right.

The crane's huge hook hooked the top plate frame and slowly moved to the construction site at the end of the dock.

The construction of the dock is of vital importance. Xie Changshan was worried and has been staying here to keep an eye on it for the past two days.

The construction of the water plant in the trading market was given to Ding Wu.

As for the construction of other projects in the trading market, he handed it over to Fang Jingxin.

After two days of construction, they had built a pier that was 20 meters long and 10 meters wide.

The total area reaches 200 square meters.

The electrical and pump rooms are now being constructed at the end of the pier.

If the drought continues and the water level in the lake drops and cannot be drained into the ditch through the height difference, water in the lake will have to be pumped out using water pumps.

The dock they built was 20 meters deep into the lake, and the deepest part of the lake bottom touched by the dock was 12 meters deep.

The construction of the power distribution room and the water pump room did not use steel frame structure.

After all, it is by the lake, it is humid and can easily corrode steel.

So they built this small room using the strongest reinforced concrete structure.

The wall is nearly half a meter thick.

The room has been basically built, except for the roof.

After the roof is completed, all we need to do is send the water pumps and electrical equipment in there.

When building this dock, they took flood season into consideration. In order to prevent the distribution room from being submerged by lake water, the height of the dock must be five meters higher than the highest water level.

"boom!"

A zombie just showed its head in the lake and was shot dead by the militia brigade.

In the past few days, they have been here every day to protect the construction team and ensure their safety.

Ding Meng looked at the house that was about to be completed, turned his head and said to Xia Liangfeng behind him:

"Old Xia, if we can complete the roof today, I won't come tomorrow. I'll leave the security work here to you."

"Okay, no problem." Xia Liangfeng nodded.

Previously, most of the zombies in the lake were led away by Ding Meng and burned or blown up a few kilometers away.

There are much fewer zombies in the lake now, so the pressure is much lower.

"Be careful!" Xia Liangfeng, who was looking at the dock, narrowed his eyes and saw a construction worker fall while carrying a formwork.

The body fell toward the edge of the dock.

Wow!
His whole body was falling towards the dock, and he was about to fall into the lake when his hands grabbed the edge of the dock.

The person who was following him to move the template quickly ran over, grabbed his hand and pulled him up.

call--

Xia Liangfeng breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the construction worker successfully rescued.

This is at the end of the dock, and the water below is 12 meters deep. If you fall down, you will definitely be bitten to death by the zombies below.

Swimming 20 meters from there to the shore, even if there was only one zombie in between, it could take his life.

The worker who fell was still in shock, his legs were shaking, and he stared blankly at the edge of the dock.

Obviously terrified.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck, I almost died."

Xie Changshan came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Be careful."

Then he pointed at the worker who was carrying the formwork at the back and said, "Take him down to have a rest."

Being so frightened, if the worker continues going down, he will probably be distracted and prone to an accident. It is better to let him go down.

After they went down, Xie Changshan took out a loudspeaker and shouted to the construction workers behind him:
"Slow down the movement, don't go near the edge of the dock, try to move to the middle."

He looked at the edge of the dock, frowned, and said to himself, "Should we just get rid of the whole guardrail?"

Time passes bit by bit.

The roof formwork of the house is gradually being built.

They poured the concrete directly onto the formwork.

Once the concrete hardens, it will form a solid roof.

On the other side, near the right side of the dock, they were driving piles and setting up the nets.

There are four layers of these nets, from coarse to fine.

This is to prevent the zombies and some debris in the lake from pouring into the ditch and causing blockage.

The ditch has now been cleared, but a thick cement steel plate nearly one meter thick blocks the flow of water.

This steel plate was installed with an automatic switch device, and the line was led to the oil city.

When a switch is pressed in the oil city, the cement steel plate opens and the water in the lake flows into the ditch and flows to the water plant in the trading market.

Once the cement and steel plates are closed, the lake water will no longer flow to the trading market.

It's getting dark and it's time to finish work.

The roof between the power distribution and water pumps has been grouted, and the next step is just to wait for the roof to dry naturally.

The formwork can be removed and a sturdy dock house is built.

Dilulu——

A long whistle sounded!

Xie Changshan shouted with a loud speaker: "Call it a day!"

呲——

The crane boom hung to the shore and stopped.

The sound of the machines stopped within one minute after Xie Changshan called for the end of work.

Xie Changshan was very happy looking at the completed pier and dock huts.

"The water intake is basically complete. Now we just have to wait for the factory building in the trading market to be built!"

He carried the trumpet and walked briskly towards the shore.

At this rate, he would be able to build the water plant in less than a month.

The construction of the most dangerous dock water intake is almost completed.

The construction of the factory building at the trading market has been carried out in two shifts day and night for the past ten days, and is now almost half completed.

"Chief Engineer Xie, I don't need to come tomorrow, right?" Ding Meng waited by the car until Xie Changshan spoke.

After hearing this, Xie Changshan thought for a moment and said:
"Okay, Captain Ding, thank you for your hard work these past few days. Thank you very much. If it weren't for you, it would be very difficult for us to build this dock."

A few days ago, a group of zombies walked out from the bottom of the lake. That scene still lingers in his mind.

If Ding Meng had not led most of the zombies away that day, the construction of the dock would probably have been hindered by a large number of zombies.

"Let's go, get in the car." Ding Meng opened the car door and let Xie Changshan get in.

"Thank you." Xie Changshan said flattered.

He sat in the car, looking at the long pier, and a sense of pride arose spontaneously.

In such a short time, and even though there were zombies in the lake, the pier was built.

The difficult project was completed in his hands!
