Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 1838: Hundreds of Thousands of Artificial Lands, 450 Million Points! 9000 Tons of Food!
"There is enough limestone. In recent days, nearly 3000 tons of limestone are mined every day. Now, more than tons of limestone have been stored in the buffer city."

In the meeting room of Oil City, Ding Jiuzheng stood up to give a report.

“The recent rise in temperature has accelerated the pace of construction.

It is predicted that the buffer city wall will reach a height of 20 meters in three days, and the greenhouse will be completed within half a month. "

As soon as Ding Jiu finished his report, Ju Tianrui immediately stood up and gave suggestions.

"Minister, since there is enough limestone, why not let the workers and guards who are mining the limestone withdraw? The temperature has reached minus five degrees Celsius now, and some trucks may even get stuck in the ice when transporting them back."

Uncle San nodded and said, "Okay, let's withdraw."

"Okay." Ju Tianrui's face lit up with joy after getting permission from his third uncle.

In the past two days, Dongfeng and Deputy Zhang Tian reported to him the risks brought about by rising temperatures, and he was also somewhat worried.

Now that the minister has agreed, the workers and the convoy will not have to go out tomorrow.

When mining limestone, there are more guards than workers mining ore.

Ten huge excavators shoveled the blasted limestone gravel directly onto trucks with great efficiency.

Uncle San looked at Anya, "Anya, how is the planting in the greenhouse going now?"

Anya stood up and answered:
"150 greenhouses have already been sown and the planting is going well. The remaining greenhouses are also continuing to sow seeds. After the planters become proficient in the operation, the speed will be further improved."

"Not bad." Uncle San nodded.

There are currently three main types of crops grown in the buffer city.

Corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes.

All three types of crops are extremely simple to grow.

There are two ways to sow corn. One is direct seeding, where the seeds are sown directly on the ridges.

Another method is seedling raising and transplanting. Now the main method used is seedling raising and transplanting, because there are dozens of acres of mature greenhouses in the trading market.

The seedling cultivation had already begun before the buffer city greenhouse was built. Now that the buffer city greenhouse is built, the seedlings can be transplanted directly, which is very fast.

Planting potatoes is also very simple. Cut them into pieces, place them in a bright place to germinate, and then sow them.

The planting method of sweet potatoes is even simpler. In addition to planting directly with sweet potato tubers, you can also use leaf cuttings, which is very easy to grow.

After planting, the subsequent field management work such as weeding, fertilizing and irrigation, as well as pest and disease control, are familiar and simple for Anya and her team.

As for fertilizers, they mainly used organic fertilizers.

There are more than 200,000 people in the trading market, and the amount of excrement produced every day is astronomical.

After being stored in a closed manure pit and fermented, it can be used directly to fertilize crops.

There was a lot of excrement accumulated in the cesspool, and the dozens of acres of greenhouses in the underground plantation and trading market of the ancient tomb could not use it all.

There is so much organic fertilizer that it is almost full.

If the greenhouses had not been built and a large amount of organic fertilizer was not urgently needed, they would have been unable to do anything but dig new manure pits.

There is no room for it at all.

It is freezing cold now, and the drainage and excretion pipes connected to the outside are all frozen, so they cannot drain out of the trading market. Therefore, once the manure pit is full, we have to dig a new pit.

In addition, the manure pit is sealed and a large amount of methane is generated inside. Once ignited by fire, it will explode. The explosion effect is no different from a heavy artillery bombardment.

This is why the trading market does not allow survivors to carry fire.

In addition, the route of the cesspool pipe is completely different from that of the drainage pipe, and the two do not conflict.

Xie Changshan raised his hand.

Uncle San nodded slightly to signal him to speak.

"Minister, the buffer city waterproofing project still has some gaps. I am mainly worried that the gate of the wall may be hit by floods, so I applied to directly use concrete to seal it."

"If it's blocked with concrete, how are we going to open the gate later? And if the gate is blocked with concrete, the gate will be scrapped," said Uncle San, frowning.

"no."

Xie Changshan explained: "We first used sandbags filled with sand to fill the back of the gate, and then poured concrete to strengthen the support."

"We will use a drill to drill the concrete after the flood recedes."

“Also, unlike the C60 specification of concrete used in the construction of the wall, C30 concrete was used, which has a different level of strength and is easier to break.”

After listening to it, Uncle San nodded and said, "In that case, let's do as you say."

Although Uncle San has some knowledge in many fields, he is not omnipotent.

The governance policy in the oil city has always been for professionals to do professional things.

He only assesses risks and raises questions, and lets his subordinates solve them.

The concrete mentioned by Xie Changshan actually has many specifications.

C10 ~ C15 grade concrete: It is a common grade and is suitable for indoor floors, site pavements, garden landscapes, etc. that do not require load-bearing.

C20 ~ C25 grade concrete: has higher strength and is suitable for building components such as house frames, roof panels, outdoor floors, platform beams, etc.

C30 ~ C40 grade concrete: belongs to the high-strength grade, suitable for large buildings, multi-story frame structures, bridges, tunnels, culverts and other load-bearing components.

C45 ~ C80 grade concrete: belongs to the ultra-high strength grade, suitable for special engineering needs such as high-rise buildings, large-span bridges, nuclear power plants, etc.

The legendary C140 is even less used.

At the Dazhangshu headquarters base, the concrete used for the walls is also of the ultra-high strength grade C60.

The foundation is made of C140 concrete, which has no crushed stones and uses threaded steel wire as stone, and can directly withstand bombardment. C60 concrete is already very strong. Before the end of the world, it was only used at the bottom and basement of large structures, or in bridges, tunnels, water conservancy projects, etc.

It is a high-strength concrete with strong pressure resistance.

In addition, the wall, which is 7 meters wide, is like a solid fortress and can fully withstand the impact of floods.

If conventional artillery shells were used for bombing, it would take ten days or half a month to penetrate it.

This wall provides the base with the most solid barrier to resist external threats.

The focus of the subsequent meetings was still on discussions and research on the foreseeable floods.

Afterwards, the points currently in the base were discussed.

Currency expert Sun Taidou raised his hand.

"Minister, the current trading market spends a huge number of points every day. There is a certain risk. I think we must do the following things well."

Due to the recent use of a large amount of intensive labor, expenditure points are also measured in ten thousand units.

After these expenditure points were given to the residents of the trading market, the residents' wallets swelled at a visibly fast rate. Having money, they dared to spend, which also boosted consumption in the commercial area.

The amount of tax paid in the latest week also broke the historical high, up 100% compared with the same week last month.

There are now more than 100,000 survivors working on the buffer city construction site, and the points spent every day have reached more than 100,000.

One point can buy four tacos, and one taco is worth 4 points.

More than 4 points, converted into grain and divided by 60, would be 300 jin of grain, or tons of grain.

The points distributed to the workers each day were equivalent to a nominal daily expenditure of 300 tons of grain.

However, these points cannot be redeemed within a day, so most people just keep them.

300 tons of food a day means 3000 tons in ten days and 9000 tons in a month.

At this rate of consumption, we can't sustain it for long.

If you want the horse to run faster, you have to let it eat some grass. If you don’t give points, the residents will naturally have no motivation to work.

Under such a good system, residents will be more enthusiastic about work.

After widely recruiting residents to carry out construction projects, the points issued this month reached 450 million.

Getting closer and closer to the inverted warning line.

What is meant by inverted is that all the available points of all residents are compared with the food in the oil city.

The amount of food that can be exchanged for all usable points exceeds the actual amount of food the oil city possesses, which creates an inverted situation.

However, at present, the inversion will not immediately lead to a crisis.

As long as the subsequent buffer city greenhouses are completed and food can be grown, this problem can be alleviated.

In short, it is just to borrow the labor of the survivors first, distribute points to them, and then redeem them with food slowly.

We have been able to achieve this thanks to the endorsement of Oil City over the years and the backing of the Dazhangshu Base Headquarters.

In case Oil City runs out of food, residents of the trading market can use their points to exchange for it. Even if Oil City cannot exchange for food, the headquarters of the Dazhangshu base will be able to send in reinforcements.

However, such huge expenditure also has huge benefits.

In less than a month, the buffer city wall had been built to 18 meters and the greenhouse was halfway completed.

The area of ​​the buffer city is not small. It is a super large base of tens of thousands of acres.

Only an oil city can do this kind of thing.

First, there are enough people.

Second, the level of trust is high enough. If it were any other base of any other forces, the survivors would want to hand over food and work at the same time. It is impossible for them to work for you first and then take points that have no value.

But after several verifications at the trading market, there is absolutely no problem in exchanging points for food, and the scale is large enough and stable.

Or there is another way, which is to force the survivors to work, and kill them if they refuse to work.

However, this approach is tantamount to draining the pond to catch all the fish; it cannot achieve a positive cycle of development and is likely to cause resentment among the survivors.

Third, with a strong backer, the stable and solid Camphor Tree Headquarters Base provides a safety net for the Oil City, so the Oil City can develop rapidly.

The meeting lasted five hours.

A huge crowd of people came out of the conference room.

This is the largest and most attended coordination meeting held in the past month.

The number of participants reached hundreds.

The content of the meeting covered various aspects.

After everyone left, Uncle San took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

After lighting a cigarette, in the smoke.

Hands trembled slightly.

He muttered, "Construction is such a fucking waste of points."

In one month, more than 100,000 people were recruited to work.
450 million points were consumed, which is equivalent to 9000 tons of food.

However, not all of these 9000 tons of grain were delivered.
