Stocking up in space: surviving in a world of crisis

The situation in the base gradually stabilized, and Ye Fu didn't have time to go out for a stroll, she was busy harvesting wheat these days, and after harvesting this batch of wheat, she planned to take everyone to plant another batch of medicinal materials.

Although there are harvesters, it is not easy to harvest wheat. The wheat awns get into the clothes and stick to the skin, which makes the whole body uncomfortable.

Jiang Rong doesn't need to go out to collect supplies recently. Apart from harvesting wheat, he just stays in the wooden house to cut jade and carve all kinds of jewelry. Ye Fu has already received ten gifts carved by himself.

Cheng Rin was very trustworthy, and sent a lot of jade and gold mines one after another.

Space can no longer absorb gold ore, Ye Fu plans to refine the gold ore, maybe it can be used in the future, since ancient times, gold has been a currency in circulation, and its value only goes up but not down.

Recently, in order to prevent the emergence of other infectious diseases, the base has started a comprehensive eradication. What everyone didn't expect was that when everything was going in a good direction, the first rain since the extreme night quietly fell.

The sun lamp emits heat, the water evaporates after absorbing the heat, and becomes water vapor, the water vapor rises into the air and encounters cold air, condenses and becomes water droplets, and the water droplets gather to form clouds, and after colliding with each other, it becomes rain.

The sudden heavy rain is regarded as auspicious by people. The heavy rain will wash away all disasters and diseases. The young people leave the shelter despite the obstruction and rush to the road to cheer and cheer.

Xuxu and An An were also a little eager to try, Ye Fu was worried that there would be thunder and lightning, since she was struck by lightning before, she had a psychological shadow on thunder.

"It's actually raining. It's the first rain after the polar night. The wheat in the planting area of ​​the base should grow well."

"I'm afraid it will turn into a torrential rain. The wheat has finally germinated. We can't let the torrential rain harm us."

At this time, the meteorological department of the base was already crazy busy, and all the staff carried detection tools and went out to survey. It is not yet known whether the sudden heavy rain is a blessing or a curse. The sky is fine, the sun may come out after the rain.

Ye Fu was wearing a raincoat and went outside to catch a basin of rainwater. She wanted to do a test to prevent harmful substances in the rainwater from harming residents or crops.

The scientific research team is also doing experiments. They sent a person to look for Ye Fu. Ye Fu took the water basin to the past. With more people and strength, the thinking will be more open. Ye Fu doesn't mind doing experiments and experiments with everyone. discuss.

"I'm worried that there are corrosive and harmful substances in the rainwater." After the captain said this, everyone's expressions changed.

If acid rain occurs again, the wheat, vegetables and medicinal materials will all be ruined. The reservoir of the base is related to the survival of more than 100 million people. Once the reservoir is polluted, the problem of drinking water for residents will overwhelm the base.

Everyone in the scientific research team stared nervously at the testing equipment, for fear of missing any information.

After almost two hours, all the test reports were printed out. After the captain read it, his complexion turned from cloudy to clear in an instant.

"There are a lot of debris in the rainwater, but there are no corrosive and harmful substances, and no infectious bacteria have been detected."

"Fortunately, it was a false alarm. If there is another acid rain, how will everyone live?"

"Captain, did you just say that there are debris in the rainwater, which is harmful to crops?"

The team leader handed the test report to everyone, "It's just some sand, mud, rotten leaves and bug corpses, nothing wrong."

Ye Fu also breathed a sigh of relief, took the report and the basin, and returned to the dormitory.

The rain did not show signs of stopping. Someone came back from the outside, covered in moisture and humidity. In the elevator, more than a dozen people crowded together. The smell of oil from the hair of the man next to him was mixed with the moisture, making it even more pungent. In whispers, some people said it was the spring rain before dawn, while others felt that the rain was cloudy and bitter, and worried that the crops would be affected.

Back in the dormitory, everyone else was waiting for her, Ye Fu gave the report to Jiang Rong, and after he read it, he passed it on to Wan Tao and the others.

"There is nothing wrong with the rain. It should not turn into a rainstorm. After all, the formation of rainwater requires many factors. The heat from the sun lamp is not enough for the next heavy rainstorm. It may stop in two or three hours."

"I still want to play in the water."

Qi Yuan flicked Xuxu's soaring grip, "Be careful of catching a cold, you can't play with water, do you understand?"

Xuxu nodded, "I know, I'm afraid of getting sick."

After reading the report, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"No wonder it is said that peasants eat their meals according to the sky, and after a heavy rain, months of hard work will be for nothing." Qi Yuan sighed.

Ye Fu put away the report that came back, "After this rain, typhoid fever and flu are very likely to break out, everyone try not to go out."

"We still have to harvest wheat. How can we have time to go out? By the way, why hasn't Shen Li come over recently? Is he busy?"

"The base plans to open an arsenal. Shen Li belongs to Cheng Rin, and he is busy." Jiang Rong said suddenly.

"Arsenal? Is that what I understand?" Tang Yizheng looked at Jiang Rong with burning eyes.

"Yes."

Everyone was a little excited, "I really want to go inside, Jiang Rong, is the arsenal recruiting?"

Jiang Rong smiled, "Everyone knows that there are prison cells in the base, and there are many prisoners in custody. After the arsenal is activated, the prisoners will be sent to work in it. Of course, they can only do the hardest physical work. As for the most confidential, fine-grained work, the base has staff in this area, they will not recruit residents."

At any time, the arsenal is top secret.

"Why do I have a very bad premonition? Does the base have any plans to start the arsenal at this time?" Qi Yuan scratched the thick hair that had grown out, looking a little anxious.

"It may be related to people from country y, but I don't know the details."

"When it comes to acid rain, I am afraid. If there is another acid rain, the reservoir will be polluted, the crops will be corroded, and the damage to the base will be devastating. However, acid rain cannot be prevented. If it happens once or twice, it will happen a third time. "Fang Wei hugged Xuxu and sighed.

Tang Yizheng frowned, "It's impossible to make an indestructible protective cover to cover the entire base and Heguang City, right? Unless it's Jigong's outer shirt, there is nothing that can cover such a large area. Besides, the shelter The roof is made of special materials, which should be able to withstand acid rain, maybe even meteorite fireballs.”

"It is of course impossible to make a protective cover, but the base should be able to do it by storing water."

"Indeed, even if there is no natural disaster, the base should stockpile some water for a rainy day."

Police Officer Song raised his hand suddenly, "I have an idea that a container is needed to store water, but there is a way to solve this problem, which is to turn water into ice cubes."

"Don't worry, everyone. The management of the base is not a vegetarian. Maybe they have already arranged these things."
