Rebirth in the last days: 30 million winning prizes at the beginning

Chapter 1715 Oil City breaks through 230,000 people!

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, all other oil is packed in oil barrels.

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

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

Blockades 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 amount of oil stored in the entire Da Zhangshu Base.

Every time oil is pumped, approval is required and inspection is required before entry.

.......

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..."

...........

As of now, all those who went on missions at the Da Zhangshu Base Headquarters 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 grain 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, it has 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 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, and 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 above-ground water canals, it is only necessary to dig the ground and open up the link between the trading market and 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 doing 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, so a boiler factory is used 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 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.

Uncle San 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 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 used the mission hall system and points system to attract survivors, give them ways to earn points and purchase food, allowing them to survive."

"In addition, these human resources help us build a trading market."

The third uncle nodded and said:

"This is just one of them."

"Secondly, why do they believe in us? Trust needs endorsement, and Oil City also needs promotion! In the previous thunderstorm disaster, tens of thousands of survivors came 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 took them through thunderstorms and natural disasters?”

development momentum.”

"Just like the last wave of thunderstorm natural disasters, once the natural disasters passed, the Oil City developed rapidly again!"

.......

After listening to his third uncle's words, Lao Luo could not calm down for a long time.

Just imagine, after the ice disaster, if a buffer city could be built, it would become as prosperous as a trading bazaar, with 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 increase like this. If the new people don't have food, they may riot..."

The third uncle smiled and said:

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

Lao Luo frowned and thought deeply about what the minister said.

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

Third uncle explained:

"I consulted with Changshan whether construction can be done at minus ten degrees, and he said yes! It just needs to be more troublesome and slower."

"Even at minus 20 degrees, construction can still be done. You only need to add an appropriate amount of antifreeze to the concrete for pouring to prevent the moisture inside from freezing and increase the exit temperature of the concrete. At the same time, cover the surface with thermal insulation after construction.

materials for insulation.”

“In addition, we can also build insulation sheds to maintain the temperature of the construction units, so that construction can be carried out at sub-zero temperatures.”

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

"I see!"

"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 and start planting!"

"In this way, we will take advantage of these desperate people who have no points to take risks and build them, and give them food! Work-for-relief!"

"Isn't this the same method we used during thunderstorms and natural disasters?!"

...

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

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

The height of the wall is six meters, and even a group of ordinary zombies cannot pass through it.

The biggest threat is nothing but wall-climbing zombies.

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

With the tens of thousands of acres in the buffer city, we can continue to build greenhouses without wasting time during ice disasters.

However, in that kind of severe cold weather, no matter how well you keep warm, some people may freeze to death.

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

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

Lao Luo murmured:

"No wonder, no wonder Jie Changshan is now starting to lay cables on the buffer city and the wall. This is to prepare for the subsequent construction after the ice disaster."

What he is actually worried about is that if the population in the trading market continues to grow like this, the food reserves in the oil city will not be enough for them.

On the one hand, it is impossible for them to distribute food for free. What about those people in the trading market who do not have points?

On the other hand, the food sent from the headquarters base and the northern border is limited after all. The dozens of acres of experimental greenhouses and underground plantations in the trading market simply cannot meet their food needs.

Now, it is roughly estimated that these grains can only sustain them for at most half a year.

Food will eventually run out.

No one knows how long the frozen natural disaster will last.

However, if we continue to build greenhouses and start planting during this period, these six months will not be wasted, and we will be able to continuously produce food to supply the trading market and the oil city.

You won't fall into a situation where you have nothing to lose.

Thinking of this, Lao Luo was completely convinced.

Seeing Lao Luo's expression, the third uncle smiled and said:

"Understood?"

"Understood!"

Lao Luo raised his head and sighed:

"Just building greenhouses and other buildings at such low temperatures... I'm afraid it won't be easy, and many people may freeze to death."

The third uncle narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

"The world is difficult and death is inevitable, but on the road to development, many people will surely die."

"Yes." After listening to this, Lao Luo's originally excited mood became a little depressed.

He knew what the minister said was true and right.

Maybe it's because he came out of the army before, so he still feels a little emotional, but it's just emotion.

Over the years, I have seen too many different things.

If kindness does not control the army, and if the heart is not ruthless, it will not be able to accomplish 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 were wearing thick mink coats. Many hunters had previously hunted and brought back prey, such as bears, tigers, elk, etc.

The fur was peeled off and made into clothes.

The business of clothing stores has 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 odor and odor of the zombies. It is sewn from five layers of zombie skin. The genuine leather is guaranteed! It fits your skin and will keep you warm all winter!"

A stall selling zombie leather coats was surrounded by many survivors.

"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 making a fuss while hawking.

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 it snugly, and it's so comfortable. Now we have a special promotion, and 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 street stall owner heard this, he was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother. He was about to close the deal, but 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 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 the floors here, they are all very clean."

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

It's really clean and smooth.

It is as clean as a donkey skin that has been soaked and cleaned, and the meat inside is 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 immediately became angry.

Full firepower!

"TMD! You bastard, you are from a clothing store, right? Do you think anyone can do this?"

"You have such high integrity and morals, 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 true conscience, and I'm very warm too!"

"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 cooler. 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 only sell it for three points. What the hell..."

"Grass 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 hoarded a lot of zombie skins, and he actually just wanted to get rich by getting rich.

But now it has encountered Waterloo.

It will inevitably make him unhappy.

The survivors who were watching around him scolded him.

Instead, they became interested in his leather coat because they thought 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."
