Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 676 Preparations before the World-Exterminating Flood

2 month 18 day.

clear.

Noon temperature, 23 degrees.

The sun was shining brightly, the temperature seemed to have risen completely, and there was a sense of stuffiness in the air.

According to the month, winter has not yet left. Although this winter is colder than previous winters, the blizzard will last longer.

But it ended very suddenly. In just one month, the temperature soared from tens of degrees below zero to twenty degrees above zero.

The sun at noon this day was surprisingly hot, with a strange warmth.

The sun was shining brightly, the sky was blue and white clouds were shining, and under the roadside trees that had been frozen to death in the blizzard, a few emerald green grasses emerged.

After the blizzard, the sun finally fell on the snow-covered ground, melting the white snowflakes.The scene is filled with a fresh and uplifting air.

With the warmth of the sun, the snow has long since melted, forming creeks and puddles.

Water droplets dripped from the roof, breaking the coldness of the previous silence.The colors of the meadow and the earth were also revealed.

With the rustling sound of the breeze blowing through the treetops, the air is filled with moist breath and exudes a fresh smell.

Wet earth, tiny green moss and tender green shoots start to emerge from the ground, bringing new life and hope.

The trees, houses and scenery that were covered with snow a month ago are gradually showing their original appearance.The snow on the branches gradually melted, leaving behind a layer of crystal clear water droplets.

With the passage of time, the snow has completely melted. Although the land has not completely recovered its former vigor and vitality, at least some greenery has appeared in some low-lying places in the wild.

Big camphor tree base.

Li Yu got down from the fence and went to the drain in the inner city to check again.

After Xu Zhen and his team cleaned up and rested yesterday, the drainage and sewers of the Dazhangshu base were completed.

Because it was already night when the iron railings and the line control system were installed, so Li Yu didn't go to check, and now he has to go to check.

On the way, he saw ants swarming in the aisles in the inner city, and the birds that he could see yesterday disappeared.

When he left the villa area in the morning, he also noticed that the wolfdogs he raised didn't come out to have fun today.

You know, during the previous cold season, these wolfhounds had been suffocating indoors for several months.

Yesterday he was still in the base, running around all over the mountains and plains, but today he hid in the villa and refused to go out like frost had hit the eggplant.

Even when Li Yu wanted to go out, they bit the bottom of his trousers with their mouths, and they didn't want Li Yu to go out.

Li Yu couldn't help but feel a little bit emotional. Animals' perception of danger is indeed much stronger than that of humans.

When the whole world is showing a new look, some animals living in the last days seem to be afraid of something, and they behave differently.

Since the temperature has risen and the snow has melted, in the eyes of many survivors, it seems that everything is getting better, which makes them full of hope for continuing to live.

But Li Yu knew that all this was just an appearance, and soon, a more terrifying disaster would usher in.

Li Yu came to the sewer outlet, followed by Xu Zhen, Ding Jiu and others who were called by Li Yu.

Looking at the well, the shallow water flows slowly.

Li Yu said, "Open the iron fence and have a look."

When Xu Zhen heard this, she hurried to a small room next to the mouth of the well and switched on the electric switch.

This electric switch controls the water outlet of the cliff, and the iron railings of the underground passages that converge from various places.

The canal from the cliff to the ground of the inner city has to go through three barriers in total, one is the barrier for the water to go down, the other is the iron railing under the well, and the other is the iron railing on the other side of the cliff.

Each has three switches, which can be viewed separately.

Xu Zhen turned on all three switches, and the water flow in the well became slightly faster.

If you don't look carefully, you can't see any difference from before it was turned on.

This is because the sewer has been cleaned in the past two days, and there is a gap between the block and the iron railing, which cannot hold much water.

The block was just added this morning. Since learning the lesson of the turtle being washed away, Xu Zhen has also added blocks to the sewer entrances on various grounds, so that a lot of leaf garbage can be blocked on the ground and directly in the water. It can be cleaned up before the net is blocked, and it does not need to flow into the sewer.

And it is easier to clean up on the ground.

Li Yu saw that the barrier was opened on the ground, and then he took out the walkie-talkie and asked Song Min in the monitoring room to see if the iron railing had been opened on the edge of the cliff.

After learning that the iron railings were opened smoothly, Li Yu looked at Xu Zhen, nodded slightly and said, "Good job, please continue to check to see if there are any leaks or can be improved. In addition, I think that on the ground, the water canal In the middle, some blocks are set up at intervals to ensure that the leaf garbage will not enter the underground waterway. It is easy for us to clean up on the ground, but it is much more troublesome to clean up below."

Xu Zhen squeezed the wrench in her hand and said, "Okay, Mr. Li, I will continue to improve."

"Well." After Li Yu saw that there was no major problem with the drainage system, he explained to Xu Zhen again.

After the matter here, Li Yu walked back and forth to the greenhouse.

On the way, he looked at the rice and sliced ​​sweet potatoes that had been exposed to the sun for two and a half days.

He squatted down, picked up a handful of rice, and rubbed it in his palm.

The surface is quite dry.

I squeezed a grain of rice, peeled off the husk with my fingers, and checked the moisture inside.

Almost, Li Yu nodded slightly.

Then stuff the grain of rice into your mouth and chew it.

The new rice is good, and it has a light fragrance when you eat it.

In the greenhouse, I found Anya, Xiaoshi and others, and saw them composting the freshly harvested land.

"Mr. Li."

"Mr. Li."

Several people immediately saw Li Yu walking in from outside the shed, and said hello.

"Well, Anya, I have something to ask you." Li Yu said.

"Huh? Mr. Li, tell me." Anya seems to have become paler recently, perhaps because she has been in the greenhouse for a long time, and she is not exposed to the sun as often as before.

"When will the next season's crops start?" Li Yu asked.

He knew that the torrential rain and flood disaster would erupt immediately. Although he had experienced it in his previous life, he was in other places at that time. Side, what a big impact.

If it was according to his previous life, the place he stayed at that time, the greenhouse would probably be flooded.

In his last life, he escaped by fleeing to the landmark building of the city. That building was 150 meters away.

When the torrential rain flooded, it directly submerged two-thirds of the building.

100 meters!

Of course, the reference is different. The city he lived in in his previous life was located at the mouth of a long river, and the altitude was relatively low.

I don't know how much the torrential rain and flood will affect the base, so in Li Yu's view, it is not suitable for sowing next season's crops yet.

If the flood exceeds his expectations, the crops planted will also be affected.

This is Li Yu's worry.

Anya thought it was Li Yu who was urging her to quickly start a new planting, so she explained: "It's best not to plant seeds immediately, the fertility of the land needs to be restored, not to mention that it is fertilizing now, it will take at least ten days and a half months. During this time, the seedlings have just germinated."

Hearing that Anya did not plan to start a new planting plan immediately, Li Yu was slightly relieved, but on the surface he said calmly: "It's okay, you just follow your plan, I'm not urging you, just come to ask .”

Anya looked at Li Yu seriously, and after realizing what Li Yu meant, she said, "Thank you Mr. Li, anyway, we will fatten it up as soon as possible."

Li Yu said quickly: "Don't worry, don't worry, fertilization is also very important, and the land also needs to recover and rest. Let's continue to develop. Take your time."

"Okay." Anya nodded seriously, her eyes full of joy.

She is happy because Li Yu believes in her, and the planting matters in the base are basically handed over to her.

For this point, An Ya is very grateful to Li Yu. It is very rare that she can do what she likes and is good at, and can also show value. There are no other people who don't understand.

Li Yu provided her with such an environment, and she was very satisfied, so when she devoted herself to the planting of the big camphor tree base, she was full of enthusiasm.

"Okay, then you guys continue to work, I'll go first."

After Li Yu got the answer he wanted, he left from here.

Coming out of the greenhouse, one can clearly feel the venomous and hot sun outside, but there is not much wind.

On the cement road, Lao Lu, Xie Weishan and others were cleaning the rice with wooden rakes, and at the same time turning the rice over so that the top and bottom of the rice were evenly dried.

Li Yu thought for a while, walked over and said to them: "I just took a look at the rice, and it's almost dry. After the sun goes down today, let's ask someone to collect all the rice."

Hearing this, Lao Lu said, "Mr. Li, should you just put it away? Put it in the factory building for a while, or put it in the grain warehouse? Do you want to dry it later?"

"Well" Li Yu pondered for a while, and continued: "I will let Li Yuan and Da Pao come over later, let's put the grain in the warehouse first, the new rice and the old rice will be opened separately, it's okay, I will tell Li Yuan and the others later, When the time comes for your side, when the sun goes down, start to gather the rice.”

Xie Weishan snorted for a while, and said, "What, Mr. Li, I used to farm and have some experience. Although the rice seems to be dry now, it only took two or three days to dry, so it may not be completely dry."

Li Yu frowned. If he didn't put away the rice today, it would be even more troublesome when the rainstorm came tomorrow.

You know, if rice is not dried in the sun, it is easy to get wet when it is wet, and some even germinate.

Suddenly, he thought of a way. The second uncle got a lot of food processing equipment from the food factory.

That includes the air dryer.

Large air dryer, the operation efficiency is very fast.

So he said, "In this way, after the sun goes down, you can collect the grain. When the time comes, you can take the grain to the food processing factory and use the air dryer to dry it."

As far as he knows, those huge air dryers can dry two tons at a time, which usually takes an hour, but the rice itself is almost dried, so it definitely doesn't take an hour, maybe about 10 minutes Will suffice.

Xie Weishan was a little surprised when Li Yu said that he wanted to use an air dryer, which obviously exceeded his knowledge blind spot.

He is just a man who farms at home and does construction odd jobs outside during the slack season.

Lao Lu nodded and said, "That's fine. If we can dry the rice earlier, our hearts will be settled earlier. After all, we don't know when it will rain. The sun has been shining for several days in a row. I am always worried that it will rain tomorrow. According to As the old man said, if the sun shines for a long time, it will rain."

Li Yu heard Lao Lu say such words casually, which made Li Yu look at him with admiration.

This old Lu is quite sensitive.

Immediately after explaining to them, Li Yu ran to the outer city and explained the matter to He Chao and the others.

In addition, I asked my second uncle to clean up the air dryer quickly, and I will use it tonight.

When the second uncle heard Li Yu say that he wanted to use an air dryer to dry the rice, he said, "I've thought about it a long time ago, but I didn't tell you about it when I thought of the traditional way of exposing to the sun."

"However, Xiaoyu, the efficiency of drying rice with an air dryer is actually higher than you imagined. This medium-sized air dryer can dry 3 to 4 tons at a time. In addition, the rice has been dried for two or three days. It can be dried in at most 15 minutes, and there are four of them here. That is to say, it can dry 12 tons at one time, and 48 tons in one hour. The food in our base can be finished in two hours at most!"

Hearing this, Li Yu said with some surprise: "It means that there is no need to put the rice outside to dry now, it can be dried directly by air."

"Yes. That's the truth." The second uncle said.

Li Yu looked at the time on his watch, it was less than two o'clock.

So he said to his second uncle, "Okay, if that's the case, I'll just ask them to collect the rice, then dry it and store it in the warehouse."

"It's okay." The second uncle looked at the air dryer that was still on, and some vegetables and sweet potatoes were being air-dried inside.

"15 minutes, the rice can be dried after 15 minutes," said the second uncle.

After all, there are other things drying in there.

This air dryer actually uses the rotation of the spiral fan blades to evenly put the rice into the air drying barrel by centrifugal force to achieve rapid air drying.

Recently, the power supply in the base is too strong, so the second uncle let go of using electricity.

The power required for such an air dryer is relatively large.

Therefore, with such sufficient electricity, the second uncle dried some things as much as possible and air-dried them so that they could be preserved for a longer period of time.

The second uncle's reply made Li Yu decide to change his original plan, and now he starts to collect the rice directly and then air-dry it.

It is estimated that there is no need to wait until dark, the rice has already been processed and sealed in the warehouse.

This warehouse is the place where Li Yu put the most effort into building the big camphor tree base. The effects of waterproof, cold protection, heat insulation, and sound insulation have all reached a very high level.

Differentiation was also carried out between the various regions.

Even if there is a problem in one part of the warehouse, it will not affect other areas.

But from the current point of view, it is difficult to form an impact.

This underground warehouse is built with a thickness of [-] meters just for the reinforced concrete layer, not including the other two layers of waterproof layer and insulation layer.
It can be said that this underground warehouse is comparable to missile silos.

After Li Yu walked out from his second uncle, looking at the bright sun, he suddenly turned black when he lowered his head.

At a certain moment, a picture suddenly appeared in his mind.

He stood on the top of a huge tall building, looking at the whole city as if he was in the ocean.

Only dozens of buildings around are still on the water, and other buildings below 50 meters are submerged underwater.

The sky was dark and the rain was pouring.

It's like a sky leak.

On the wanton water surface of the vast ocean, there are densely packed countless zombies floating in the water.

Recalling that moment, Li Yu felt his scalp tingle.

The big camphor tree base is built in a relatively high position.

There is only one Tianhua Mountain around that is higher than this side, but that Tianhua Mountain is too steep to build a base at all, otherwise Li Yu would have built it there.

What's more, the altitude of Xincheng itself is not low, and the landform here is mostly hilly and mountainous. Reasonably, it should not be greatly affected.

After all, it is not on the edge of the long river.

Li Yu used the walkie-talkie to contact Lao Lu in the inner city and He Chao in the outer city, asking them to start now to collect the rice on the concrete floor, and let Da Pao and Yang Tianlong transport it to the second uncle for air drying.

Li Yu's series of operations made the second uncle a little puzzled, but he didn't say anything. After all, the rice had been dried earlier and put in the warehouse, and their hearts had landed earlier.

After explaining these things, Li Yu came to the fence and looked at He Chao and others under the fence helping to put away the food, with bright eyes.

In addition, Li Yu went to the factory to check the water pumps. These are all items that Li Yu has included in the list since the cooperation mode was activated.

After checking the water pump, I asked Li Tie about the completion of some tasks assigned to them before. Li Tie and others said that they had completed it.

These tasks seemed inexplicable to Li Tie and the others a few days ago, but they generally seemed to focus on improving the security of the base, so they tried their best to do them well.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

Settle rice and prepare to resist heavy rain and flood.

The sky is clear, and some plants in the mountains have regained their vitality.

The sun is shining brightly, as if everything.

Needless to say, it is very beautiful.

However, in the Tanggula Mountains in the west, as the weather warms, the extremely thick snow melts faster and faster. The small trickle slowly gathers the snow water by the stream and gradually becomes a big river.

The rushing river flooded some land.

The river is getting bigger and bigger.

A huge dam originally raised its water level due to the melting of snow, but in recent days, as the upstream water flow converges, the water level has exceeded the maximum safe water level.

And, it is still increasing, and the speed is getting faster and faster.

All this, the survivors don't know, they feel that everything will get better when the weather gets warmer and hope comes.
