Doomsday disaster: Start by building a shelter

Chapter 242 Rapidly Growing Jianghe City

A blue sky-class drone with a wingspan of more than ten meters.

We traveled through the cold current at high altitude for more than half an hour.

It landed smoothly on the open space near the communication signal tower of Tumen City, which was urgently sorted out by the security team soldiers and robots stationed there.

As the fallen drone came to a steady stop, two spider robots that had been waiting there began to move forward.

Take out the supplies carried in the drone warehouse one by one.

This time the drone carried a total of 600 kilograms of materials, all of which were exploration-related equipment.

They are equipped and used by ordinary spider robots and can detect the presence of valuable mineral resources at a depth of up to 50 meters underground.

According to Su Wu's plan.

An important task for this small base centered on a communication signal tower in the future is to detect the entire mountainous area of ​​​​Tumen City and other remote areas.

Find all unexplored mines.

"It's different from Jianghe City, which is almost a mineral desert."

"In Pre-Apocalyptic Public Information."

"Tumen City is relatively rich in underground resources, and there are several potassium and copper mines that have been discovered."

"If you explore carefully, there is a high probability that you will make some new discoveries."

In addition to looking forward to those undiscovered mineral resources in the wild.

For those mines that have been discovered.

Su Wu was also very interested.

In particular, the medium-sized potash mine can be used to produce a large amount of fertilizer to solve Su Wu's deficit after expanding his plantations.

However, these mines have been discovered and are even being mined.

They are all deeply entangled with the local forces in Tumen City.

As an outsider, it is difficult to snatch it directly in a short time.

According to Su Wu's idea.

It is best to obtain part of the mining rights through negotiation.

Of course, if the negotiation fails or the other party's price is too high.

Then when the right opportunity comes, you can also consider armed occupation.

Think about it.

It was noticed that the spider robot responsible for unloading had left the runway.

Su Wu began to control the drone to take off.

This time.

It can be clearly seen through the camera on the drone.

on the ground.

A clear mark has appeared where the drone originally passed when it landed.

It is obvious that this track is basically made of loess.

The quality is quite substandard.

Wait until the drone leaves.

The soldiers responsible for guarding here must repair the runway again.

"It seems that it is necessary to transport another batch of fast cement."

"Dedicated to building runways."

In his heart, Su Wu prepared the next transportation for the Qingkong-class drone.

A new mission has been added.

"Then, since the test was OK."

"Then mass production can begin."

"Next, let's continue to produce nine aircraft."

At the speed of the Aozora-class drone.

A round trip between Jianghe City and Tumen City only takes about an hour.

Even if you go to the farthest seaside communication tower.

It will not exceed 6 hours at a time.

So, strictly speaking.

Even if it's just one.

It is also enough to meet all the daily transportation needs of the 12 communication signal towers outside Jianghe City.

An extra nine.

In fact, the main purpose is to expand the size of the sentry towers next to the communication signal towers.

And used to transport small amounts of high-value materials.

Su Wu planned to build an air transportation network using those communication signal towers as nodes.

Specially used to trade some valuables with local shelters within the signal coverage of the signal tower.

For example, using self-produced mobile phones, medicines, etc., in exchange for local gold, silver, and other rare materials.

If it works well.

This air transportation line may be able to earn back thousands of times the investment cost.

Withdraw your attention from the Aozora-class drone that successfully started returning.

Su Wu's eyes returned to the surface of the farmyard.

He inspected the huge newly built warehouses near the bulldozed airstrip.

Build these warehouses.

In fact, it is also a helpless move.

With the huge size of the Aozora-class drone.

It is impossible to exit through the shelter exit passage normally.

All the core parts can only be manufactured in the manufacturing center of the shelter first.

Then they are transported to the surface in batches, and the final step of assembly is completed on the surface.

Considering that on the surface, there may be rain, snow, strong winds and other severe weather.

Even the most unskilled assembly is obviously not possible in the open air.

The next best thing was to build these temporary warehouses.

"There is no need to think about warmth and safety."

“Plus there’s wireless charging.”

“Even basic power lines don’t need to be laid separately.”

"The construction cost of the entire above-ground warehouse is so low that it can be ignored."

"The most valuable thing."

"That is, those parts that are transported up from the shelter when there are assembly tasks."

"That's how it works out."

"Even if there is an unexpected disaster, all warehouses on the surface will be destroyed."

"It won't be a big loss."

Inquire about various construction costs of the warehouse.

Once again their value was assessed.

After Su Wu breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

If possible, he naturally doesn't want to go to such trouble.

But there is no way.

Space in underground shelters is limited.

These above-ground warehouses will be available for quite some time to come.

I'm afraid they will all continue to exist.

Finished inspecting the warehouse on the surface.

Su Wu's eyes focused on the underground shelter again.

As Su Wu continues to update and optimize various construction equipment of the engineering team.

After more than half a month.

The second phase of the expansion project of the entire farmyard shelter has finally achieved its first phased results.

It completes the expansion of the lowermost floor.

The 7th floor underground of the farmhouse.

From the original diameter of 100 meters, it was expanded to a diameter of 500 meters.

Don't look at how inconspicuous this number seems.

With a diameter of 500 meters, it is only a little longer than a standard stadium track.

But actually.

Its internal space underground is so huge that it can be measured in millions of cubic meters.

Just the newly added space on that floor.

It is three to four times larger than the original farmhouse shelter as a whole.

Enough to hold three aircraft carriers.

It can be said to be the size of a medium-sized shelter.

Unfortunately, the engineering team dug underground very quickly.

Su Wu expanded faster in terms of population.

In this more than half a month.

The population has grown to tens of millions.

Today, the basic grain consumed every month requires more than 100,000 to 200,000 tons.

A newly added space of the size of a medium-sized shelter, even if it is completely built into a plantation.

Overall, its output will not have much impact.

"Take your time."

"Anyway, there's enough space being added every day."

"There's no need to be too hasty."

His eyes fell on the plan for the new space next to the three-dimensional map of the shelter.

Su Wu thought about it again and again.

It was not ultimately revised.

The number of fast-growing plantations built in the shelter affiliated to Jianghe City is enough to ensure everyone's basic food needs.

There is no need to continue to increase its number here in the farmyard.

Instead, conventional plantations were built according to previous plans.

Although the grain output is only half of that of fast-growing plantations.

But it’s one step at a time.

No matter how far the shelter develops in the future, there will be no need to change it again and again.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

This avoids wasting time and resources on repeated construction.

Tour completed.

Su Wu began to deal with today's affairs.

After the surface temperature dropped below zero and the heavy rain basically stopped.

The water level in the entire Jianghe City is dropping rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Garden cruise ship returning from its voyage, and other ships.

Not long after docking at the deep-water port that was originally built based on a medium-sized shelter.

There were signs of stranding.

Until now.

It is equivalent to staying directly on land.

"It should be completely useless in the future."

"Just tear them all down."

Finally, he glanced at the screen and stopped at the ground that had long since dried up.

A cruise ship like a steel city.

Su Wu made the decision with some regret.

Subsequently.

Hundreds of spider robots and a dozen transport vehicles.

Started showing up near cruise ships.

They first removed all the equipment in the cruise ship that could be dismantled, as well as all the daily necessities that could be taken away.

These things are not destroyed and reduced to raw materials.

Instead, it will be temporarily stored in the warehouse attached to the shelter.

Wait until it is somewhere useful later, and then take it out and use it directly.

Avoid unnecessary losses in the process.

As for the remaining large pieces, cut them all.

Recycle it as scrap steel.

Because I'm not in a hurry.

The number of robots sent by Su Wu was not too many.

The entire demolition process seemed a bit unhurried.

It looks like it will take ten days and a half to dismantle it.

After Su Wu confirmed that the demolition work on site was on track, he no longer paid attention to it.

Then he turned his attention to the farmyard and the manufacturing center on the second underground floor.

The current manufacturing center is still operating at full capacity.

It mainly produces mobile phones, Bluetooth headsets, various engineering vehicles and robots, as well as exoskeleton armor and so on.

Mobile phones and Bluetooth headsets are basic equipment.

Because the population is growing too fast.

Until now.

There are still more than millions of people in Jianghe City who do not have these two equipments.

Many times.

The artificial intelligence had to arrange for a person with a Bluetooth headset to serve as the captain and microphone.

to indirectly command others.

This is invisible.

A lot of time is wasted delivering commands and confirming target status.

The actual work efficiency of those people is only about two-thirds of that of other people.

Construction vehicles and robots.

It is currently the main mechanical equipment that can improve the productivity of the entire Jianghe City.

Every time a construction vehicle or robot is produced.

Artificial intelligence will respond, from among the 2 million shelter residents working in the ruins of the city.

Three people were picked out.

Dispatched to the remote control center inside the shelter, responsible for taking turns to remotely operate the newly manufactured machine to work.

Among them.

For the selected individuals, it is equivalent to changing from migrant workers to white-collar workers sitting in the office.

The working environment and labor intensity have been greatly improved.

For Su Wu.

It is an increase of three labor forces with a work efficiency of more than 10 times.

The last industrial product mass-produced by the manufacturing center is exoskeleton armor.

At present, it is also mainly distributed to ordinary shelter residents working in urban ruins.

Compared with remote-controlled robots.

These shelter residents who are assigned exoskeleton armor still have to stay on the surface to work in person.

In terms of labor intensity, it is relatively greater.

They also need to bear various dangers that may be encountered in surface activities.

But at least it is much better than ordinary shelter residents who use primitive tools, have no protection, and can't run.

The average labor efficiency can also be increased by about 7 times.

As these equipment that increases productivity continues to come off the production line and be transported to the urban ruins.

The overall efficiency of recycling construction waste.

It also increased rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just one day.

The construction waste processed every hour increased from 40,000 tons to 60,000 tons.

According to this growth curve.

Maybe.

Before the surface environment completely deteriorates.

It can really digest a large part of the urban ruins of the entire Jianghe City.

"The situation is very good."

Looking at the production of the manufacturing center.

Every moment.

The various substantial data growths brought to the entire Jianghe City.

Su Wu narrowed his eyes slightly.

He enjoyed the satisfaction brought by this thriving growth.

In the afternoon.

After handling all the affairs inside the shelter.

Su Wu finally began to have the energy to pay attention to the outside world.

Considering the population transaction intention sent by the official shelter in Tumen City, and the rare safe environment on the surface today.

Without too much weighing.

Su Wu quickly decided to form a caravan and set off to Tumen City.

Because the manufacturing center is already full of production tasks.

This caravan will not be modified too much.

It is basically composed of ordinary vehicles.

After careful selection.

Su Wu chose 20 buses that can carry 76 people and are still using fuel, 20 Type I ore transport vehicles, and 5 armored vehicles modified from Type I ore transport vehicles and equipped with electromagnetic guns and rocket launch slots as the main body of the entire caravan.

Needless to say, the buses are the tools used to pull people back.

20 buses are enough to bring back more than 1,500 people.

Type I ore transport vehicles are responsible for carrying various supplies necessary for long journeys.

For example, water, food, fuel, first aid medicines, various field tools, and repairs to broken roads and bridge decks, quick cement and steel that may be used, etc.

In addition, they are responsible for loading the 20 ordinary spider robots that accompany the vehicle.

The armored vehicles are the armed guards of the caravan.

The electromagnetic guns and rocket launch slots on them are heavy weapons.

Enough to deal with most bandit threats.

"The biggest trouble for the first time going out far away should be the twisted and broken roads along the way."

"Relying only on the vehicles in the current caravan."

"It should be very difficult to deal with."
