Rebirth of the apocalypse: Winning a prize of 30 million at the beginning

Big camphor tree base.

The fourth outer city.

This outer city is the largest of the four outer cities in Dazhangshu Base.

Half of the area has been built with greenhouses and a spacious training ground.

In addition, during this six months, some underground oil depots were also built specifically to store oil.

There are many factories in the Da Zhangshu base, and oil is needed in many fields.

Song Min, Li Yuan, Guifei, Wang Chunqi and others came here with transport trucks.

The tanker truck pumps the oil out of the tank and transfers it to the underground oil depot.

Except for the dozen or so tank trucks, the rest of the oil is packed in barrels.

They're going to dump the oil out of every barrel.

Because the number of these oil barrels is limited, they must be used repeatedly.

Barriers have been set up near underground oil depots, and the use of fireworks and other preventive measures are prohibited.

The Fourth Outer City Underground Oil Depot stores more than 30,000 tons of oil, which is the largest place to store oil in the entire Da Zhangshu base.

Every time oil is pumped, approval is required and access is subject to inspection.

The first outer city.

After meeting Zuo Ruxue and Xiao Hu, Li Yu entered the administrative building to find his second uncle.

"Second Uncle, from now on, the gate of the buffer city of Dazhangshu Base will be completely closed. No one can go out or go in!"

The second uncle also knew that Zuo Ruxue and the others had just returned, so he nodded and said:

"Well, I have told Yu Lei in advance that the gate of the buffer city is closed and locked, and no one can enter from behind."

Li Yu took a long breath and said, "Okay, let's wait for this blizzard to see when it comes."

So far, at the Da Zhangshu base headquarters, all those who went on missions have returned home.

The Northern Territory has been stationed at the base and will not go out. Even if the surrounding survivors pass by, the Northern Territory will not accept them, but will give them an address and let them go to Oil City to look for opportunities.

Oil City is developing rapidly, but it also bears the greatest pressure.

The northern border is positioned as a food production area, and there are relatively few troops stationed there. Therefore, in order to minimize the pressure on management, no outside population is accepted.

Although new survivors have joined the headquarters base, they have not received as much publicity as Oil City, so there are fewer survivors flowing in every day.

Oil City is still building a buffer city wall. The buffer city wall has already sealed three gates, and now only the last gate is left unsealed.

In addition, there are several staff stationed at lakes and reservoirs to collect water, but they have not been withdrawn yet.

However, the distance between the water source and the oil city is only ten kilometers, and it takes only ten minutes to drive back.

At present, the water used in the trading market and the oil city is mainly water transported from the lake.

Although the temperature has now reached near zero, water can still be transported normally.

Instead of using above-ground trench transportation, they dug underground trenches and covered them with cement and various insulation materials.

One of the reasons is to prevent low-temperature freezing and freezing of running water, making it impossible to transport it to the trading market.

The construction method of underground pipelines is much more complicated than the construction of above-ground trenches.

For the above-ground water channel, it is only necessary to dig the ground and open up the link between the trading market and the Nanhuwan Reservoir.

However, underground pipes must be laid with cement and bricks to fix the soil on both sides to prevent water from penetrating. They must also be covered with insulation materials and capped. The process is relatively cumbersome.

At the water source, they also try their best to introduce deep lake water.

The temperature of the deep lake water is relatively high and it is not easy to freeze.

However, there are limitations to this.

Once the temperature drops to dozens of degrees below zero, no amount of insulation will help, and the water channels will inevitably freeze.

Even the lake has frozen, no water can come out, and the ditches naturally have no water.

But by that time, the heavy snowfall will naturally become water for the trading market.

However, the snow water cannot be used directly and must be heated. This requires a boiler factory to help heat the snow water.

Moreover, what flows in the heating pipe itself is hot water. The working principle of the heating pipe is to use the heat energy generated by the boiler to heat the heat medium flowing through the pipe, usually heat), and then transport it to the indoor radiator, such as a radiator, through the pipe to dissipate heat. After the heat dissipation, the indoor air is heated, thereby achieving indoor heating.

However, the hot water in the heating pipes cannot be used as domestic water. Chemicals are added to the water to prevent corrosion of pipes and valves, which is harmful to the human body.

Therefore, domestic water is connected to other pipes.

Oil City.

Third Uncle and Lao Luo walked side by side on the wall of Oil City, looking at the wall of the trading market in the distance.

Lao Luo asked:

"Minister, when are we going to seal off the buffer city?"

The third uncle answered after a while:

"Wait a little longer. Many survivors came in today during the day. With the development of Da Zhangshu now, we have to plan for the future. Let's do our best to keep a few more people alive."

"But."

After Lao Luo hesitated for a moment, he said with some concern:

"But now the population of the trading market has exceeded 230,000. If this continues, I'm worried about insufficient food."

The third uncle's eyes gradually became firm, he turned his head and asked Lao Luo:

"Do you know why the trading market can develop so fast and absorb so many people in a very short period of time?"

After thinking for a moment, Lao Luo said:

"Because we adopted the task hall system and the points system to attract survivors, and gave them channels to earn points and buy food, so that they survived."

"In addition, through these human resources, we helped us build the trading market."

Uncle San nodded and said:

"This is just one reason."

"Secondly, why do they believe in us? Trust needs endorsement, and Oil City also needs promotion! The previous thunderstorm disaster brought tens of thousands of survivors from outside. We survived the thunderstorm disaster, and they were completely integrated into the trading market.

Only then will they trust our points system. Points are invisible and intangible, but they can believe and hold them, isn't it because we led them through the thunderstorm disaster?"

"The freezing disaster is a big challenge and a big opportunity. As long as we survive this freezing disaster, our Oil City will gain a stronger driving force for development."

"Just like the last wave of thunderstorm disasters, once the disaster is over, Oil City will develop rapidly again!"

After listening to Uncle San's words, Lao Luo couldn't calm down for a long time.

Imagine that after the ice disaster, if the buffer city can be built, it will become as prosperous as a trading market and have a population of hundreds of thousands.

This.

It is simply a medium-sized city.

"But."

Lao Luo pursed his lips and said: "But now the trading market is overcrowded, and the population continues to surge like this. If those newcomers don't have food, they may riot."

Uncle San smiled:

"So, this is why I asked Jie Changshan to continue building the buffer city wall."

Lao Luo frowned and pondered the minister's words.

"What do you mean?" Lao Luo thought for a while, but still didn't understand what the minister's solution was.

Uncle San explained:

"I asked Changshan if construction can be carried out at minus ten degrees Celsius. He said yes! It's just more troublesome and slower."

"Even at minus twenty degrees Celsius, construction can still be carried out. Just add an appropriate amount of antifreeze to the concrete for pouring to prevent the water inside from freezing and increase the concrete's outlet temperature. At the same time, cover its surface with insulation materials for insulation after construction."

"In addition, you can also build an insulation shed to maintain the temperature of the construction unit, so that construction can be carried out at sub-zero temperatures."

After hearing Uncle San's explanation, Lao Luo suddenly realized.

"I understand!"

"You mean, continue to build?! Try to increase the height of the buffer city wall before the ice disaster, and then build a greenhouse in the buffer city to carry out planting!"

"In this way, take advantage of these people who have no points and are desperate to build and give them food! Work in lieu of relief!"

"Isn't this the same method we used in the thunderstorm disaster before?!"

The overall height of the buffer city is only 6 meters now, but according to common sense in the past.

Under the extremely low temperature of the blizzard, the limbs are not flexible, and it is difficult for zombies to pile up.

The six-meter wall is so high that ordinary zombies cannot pass through it.

The biggest threat is the wall-climbing zombies.

But as long as they can open up the lines on the buffer city wall and install ultraviolet lamps, the wall-climbing zombies can't get in!

The tens of thousands of acres of area in the buffer city can continue to build greenhouses without wasting time during the ice disaster.

However, in such severe cold weather, even if the warmth work is done well, some people will probably freeze to death.

However, for those survivors who have no points and no food and are desperate, at least it is a way to survive.

It's better than staying outside and waiting to die.

Lao Luo murmured:

"No wonder, no wonder Xie Changshan is now laying cables between the buffer city and the wall. This is to prepare for the construction after the ice disaster comes."

He is actually worried that if the population in the trading market continues to grow like this, the reserve food in the oil city will not be enough for them to eat.

On the one hand, they can't distribute food for free, so what about those people in the trading market who don't have points?

On the other hand, the food sent from the headquarters base and the North is limited after all. The dozens of acres of experimental greenhouses and underground plantations in the trading market alone can't meet their food needs.

Now these foods, roughly estimated, can only support them for half a year at most.

There will always be a day when the food runs out.

No one knows how long the ice disaster will last.

However, if greenhouses are continuously built during this period and planting begins, these six months will not be wasted, and food can be produced continuously to supply the trading market and the oil city.

There will be no situation of eating up all the mountains.

Thinking of this, Lao Luo was completely convinced.

Seeing Lao Luo's expression, Uncle San smiled and said:

"Do you understand?"

"I understand!"

Lao Luo raised his head and sighed:

"It's not easy to build greenhouses and other buildings in such a low temperature, and many people may freeze to death."

Uncle San narrowed his eyes and said:

"The world is difficult, and death is inevitable, but on the road to development, many people must have sacrificed."

"Yeah." Lao Luo's originally excited mood became a little depressed after listening.

He knew that what the minister said was true and right.

Maybe because he came from the army before, he still had some emotion, but it was limited to emotion.

Over the years, I have seen too many things.

If you are kind and don't control the army, if you are not ruthless, you can't do great things.

Some things must be done by people.

The trading market business district not far away is still prosperous.

Even on this near-zero night, there were still many people shopping and walking around.

Pedestrians on the street wear all kinds of thick clothes.

Some people wore thick mink coats. Many hunters had been out hunting and bringing back prey, such as bears, tigers, elk, etc.

The furs were stripped off and made into clothes.

Clothing stores have also been booming recently, with many people buying thick clothes and bedding there to keep out the cold.

"Come on, come on, tiger fur coat, it's made of real material. You only need 10 points to buy a warm and thick tiger fur coat!"

"Zombie leather suit!"

"Each piece of zombie skin has been washed, washed and soaked three times to remove the putrid smell and odor of the zombies. It is sewn from five layers of zombie skin. It is guaranteed to be genuine! It fits your skin and will keep you warm all winter!"

There were many survivors surrounding a stall selling zombie leather coats.

"Boss, how do you sell this fur coat?" asked a man wearing a windbreaker and a knitted hat.

Squatting on the ground was a wretched man with a hair at the corner of his mouth and wearing a green military coat. He was rubbing his hands and shouting with white air.

After hearing the man's question, he breathed hot air into his hands and said:

"A coat is worth 3 points, a pair of pants is worth 2 points, and a complete set is worth 4 points."

The man picked up the zombie fur coat from the stall and touched it.

The texture is somewhat like human skin, but it's all white.

The stall owner saw him picking up the fur coat and quickly said:

"This leather is real zombie skin. I soaked it in potion to soften the skin. Look at the texture. It's so smooth and very warm!"

"Look, that's what I'm wearing underneath!"

He opened his military coat, revealing the zombie leather clothes underneath.

"You see, I wear them snugly and very comfortable. Now we have a special promotion. The whole set only costs 4 points."

After hearing this, the man in the knitted hat had some emotion on his face.

"Then give it to me."

Just when he was about to buy, a young man next to him suddenly asked:

"You won't be infected with the zombie virus by wearing these clothes, right?"

When the stall owner heard this, he was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother. He was about to close the deal, but he was interrupted by this stupid thing. I was really angry.

But there were many people watching around him, so he patiently explained;

"Handsome guy, you are worried for nothing. How could this zombie skin be infected with zombies? I have already told you that we use the three-cleaning, three-washing and three-soaking process. There is no zombie carrion at all. If you don't believe me, just smell it and there is no smell at all. !”

"Every kid knows about the zombie virus. It has to be bitten to be infected. How is it possible to wear clothes? Besides, if there is a problem, I won't be able to enter the trading market. I have already approved it!"

"Also, look at this floor, it's all very clean."

He opened the zombie fur coat, revealing the skin-friendly side inside.

It's really clean and smooth.

It was as clean as if the donkey skin had been soaked and cleaned, and the meat inside was scraped off bit by bit.

The young man raised his eyebrows, curled his lips and said:

"You are too immoral. Zombies were still humans after all. It would be too crazy for you to make clothes from human skin! I will never buy it. I feel uncomfortable!"

When the stall owner heard what he said, he became angry.

Full firepower!

"TMD! You bastard, you are from a clothing store, right? Do you do anything like this?"

"You have such high moral integrity, go and move the Leshan Giant Buddha away, and you can sit here."

"I'm really convinced! Look, they sell tiger fur coats for 10 points, and I only sell them for 3 points. I'm a pure conscience. I'm also very warm!"

"Tiger is also a living thing, and you are eating other people's meat. Pork is also an animal, so why are you eating meat? Plants are also alive, so what are you doing eating?"

"What the hell, I can still meet a fool like you these days! Get out of my stall, I won't do your business."

“The weather is so cold and it looks like it’s going to get colder. What should you wear to keep warm?

My idea is to save our common people. It is such an affordable, easy-to-use and durable leather coat, but you actually said such things! "

"Although the material for my zombie leather coat is relatively easy to find, the peeling process is very complicated and cumbersome. The sewing process is still so complicated. I will sell it for three points. What the hell are you doing?"

"Grass and mud horse."

The stall owner cursed a lot.

In this near-zero night, he finally vented his anger.

Tonight is the first time he has set up a stall to sell this leather coat. No one has bought it yet. There are many people around, but they are all watching.

He has hoarded a lot of zombie skins, and he actually just wants to get rich by getting rich.

But now it has encountered Waterloo.

It will inevitably make him unhappy.

After he scolded the survivors who were watching around him.

Instead, they became interested in his leather coat because they felt that what the boss said made sense.

Three points, so warm, what kind of bike do you need?

The man in the knitted hat said, "Give me a set."

With his start, other survivors around him started to buy.

"Bring me a fur coat!"

"I want it too, I want two sets."

"I want a pair of pants. Let me try them on first. If they fit well, I will buy them later."
