Chapter 55 Camp

When he was thinking about what to write, there was a noise outside. It turned out that Wu Nanhai from the agricultural team and He Ping, who was sent by Shi Yuren to disinfect the toilet, had a quarrel and came all the way here to ask for an explanation.Although He Ping was an employee of a large state-owned pharmaceutical factory before crossing over, he was actually doing maintenance work on equipment and instruments, and he didn’t know anything about the pharmacology of drugs. The technician of the seed laboratory——Shi Yanren is preparing to join the pharmaceutical factory project in the future, so Zhao Yanmei has to keep it first, and of course she has to keep her husband if she keeps her wife.

He Ping, a man with a square face and glasses and a scholarly appearance, simply became a clerk of the health team, doing odd jobs and running errands.Why did you quarrel with someone for no reason?

Going out to see, the fat man Wu Nanhai was holding He Ping, with a look of resentment on his face, while He Ping looked aggrieved, with a nylon bag containing lime in his hand.

"You asked him to spread lime?" Wu Nanhai saw the leader come out, so he focused his firepower on Shi Youren.

"What? Is there a problem? Our sanitation team is disinfecting the toilet."

"Do you understand chemistry?" Wu Nanhai pointed to the lime. "Farm manure such as manure is nitrogen-based fertilizer and cannot be mixed with alkaline fertilizers such as plant ash and lime. The result of mixing is neutralization failure. You send the NPC like this What's the use of feces and urine in this toilet?!"

Shi Yanren's complexion is very ugly. He is also a doctor who studied in the United States. Medicine is called a beast. He has practiced in the United States and prevented epidemics in the imperial capital. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to ask an undergraduate student of a agricultural university face to face if he knows chemistry? .But after thinking about it, Wu Nanhai, as the person in charge of the agricultural port, is also one of the executive committee members, and agriculture is an industry that the executive committee plans to work on quickly. In the future, many logistics support matters will have to rely on the agricultural department—— It's the person in charge of the sanitary port, and the two heads fell out face to face, and there was no room for turning around in the future.Then he calmed down a little, and suppressed the fire pressure.He really didn't think about the problem of fertilizer efficiency. Using lime to disinfect the toilet is the simplest and most common disinfection method.Disinfection with lime is almost a must when dealing with the excrement of infectious patients.

"This is due to our negligence." Shi Yanren hurriedly greeted, and coaxed Wu Nanhai away with nice words, Xiao He had a displeased expression on his face - he was not allowed to perform the task of leadership.

"Isn't it just shit? Just give him a few soaks!"

"We are also learning through practice." Doctor Shi comforted his soldiers, "Wu Nanhai needs fertilizers for farming—such as crops and flowers." Looking at the lime bag, it was almost useless.The lime was still from the construction department—he hated the bleach—and it was going to treat the drinking water.

Lime cannot be used, and bleaching powder is reluctant, and the harmless treatment of feces has to be thought of separately.Shi Yanren's main business is the subject of infectious diseases, and he is no stranger to epidemic prevention. He knows that there are many kinds of harmless treatment of general excrement, such as lime and bleaching powder, which work quickly. If there is no such thing, the easiest way is to seal it and store it , but there must be a tertiary septic tank - at worst, there must be a septic tank... Do you need some natural plants?He remembered that the book he had read said that some natural wild plants could also be substituted.The problem is that he can't remember exactly which plants they are, and he hasn't studied Chinese medicine, so even if he knows the name, he may not be able to recognize them.

Just thinking about whether to make a report and ask where there are talents in traditional Chinese medicine, Tian Jiujiu came in and asked the health team what kind of water treatment method they planned to use, so that they could come up with a water supply plan for construction as soon as possible.

"This is really one out and one in." Shi Youren murmured to himself.

"What?" Tian Jiujiu kept wondering.

"It's nothing, I'm coming to the construction site."

The water supply system is under the direct control of the sanitation team. The shallow surface groundwater near Bopu has a relatively high salt content and is not suitable for drinking water. They have not yet been able to exploit the deep water.The only feasible option is to draw water from the Wenlan River.

As for water supply, the most ideal is spring water or deep groundwater. Rivers like the Wenlan River have a large flow rate and relatively good self-purification ability, and they are also water sources that can be used. However, this area is a river delta area, and the water quality is generally low. There is greater pollution, and water treatment is more complicated.

Shi Yanren tested the water depth and flow rate, and took a 50ml water sample from 250 cm below the water surface. He didn't have testing equipment in hand, so he had to use the simplest method of visual inspection and sniffing.

Looking at the result, he shook his head again and again.I thought that the river water should be very clean considering the level of pollution in the 17th century, but the fact is that although there is little sediment in the water, there are many algae.It shows that the organic matter content in the water body is too rich. Of course, this is not surprising in modern time and space-it is all caused by chemical fertilizers, but there is no chemical fertilizer in Ming Dynasty. Such a high organic matter content only shows that the middle and upper reaches of the river are developed agricultural areas or residential areas.

Of course, it is not impossible to use this water. According to the observation of time, this water has the standard of Class III water according to modern standards-the water intakes of some modern urban water plants cannot meet this standard.

To use such water quality as drinking water, it is necessary to use a rather complicated set of sedimentation, filtration, and disinfection processes. No matter which water supply mode is adopted, sedimentation tanks, filter wells, disinfection pools, and water channels are needed... which are extremely scarce for building materials. Isn't it a fantasy for the engineering team.

Considering the poor situation of infectious diseases in ancient times, it is very likely that the water contains cholera typhoid bacteria.Shi Yanren thought again and again, thinking that it is better not to use the river water until there is no condition to build water treatment facilities.

"Let's send fresh water from the boat to the shore." He sighed and went directly to report to Ma Qianzhu.

Ma Qianju didn't know much about how to solve the fresh water problem on board, so he called Mond and asked.

"There is water on board, but it won't last long." Mond explained: Generally, the hull design has at least two fresh water tanks.One is to store drinking water, which is fresh water connected to the shore after entering the port; the other is to store daily water, which is distilled water condensed from the cooling water of the main engine.This kind of soft water desalinated from seawater is usually used for sanitary washing and is generally not drunk.Sometimes drinking water is not enough, it is also drinkable.

Because the Fengcheng ship is designed as an ocean-going ship, it has 4 fresh water tanks, and the water storage capacity is quite large.But the original design was for [-] to [-] crew members, and now there are nearly [-] people, which is a bit difficult.The amount of newly generated distilled water is limited when the auxiliary machine is running, and it cannot be supplied on a large scale for a long time.

"Use the auxiliary engine to supply fresh water!" Ma Qianju frowned after hearing his report, "This is exchanging diesel for water!" He felt a little regretful, "There is no diesel in the river."

Shi Youren knew that he felt sorry for the oil on board, but he knew that in Lingao, cholera, typhoid, paratyphoid and other intestinal infectious diseases were very prevalent in history. Until the 20s and 80s, cholera and typhoid had a small outbreak .Although the time travelers have been vaccinated thanks to the gift of modern medicine, there is no guarantee that they will be fine-even if they don't have infectious diseases, the outbreak of acute enteritis is enough for them to suffer.

After pros and cons, Ma Qianju had no choice but to accept this suggestion.In order to save water as much as possible, the headquarters decided after discussion: set up a centralized water supply station on the shore, lay water hoses with floating barrel lines, and lead the fresh water on board to a 2-ton stainless steel water tower in the living area—only For drinking and washing.

"As for bathing or something, let's get over it for the time being." Ma Qianju knew that this policy of limited supply of fresh water would definitely attract countless curses for him, but he had no choice but to do so.He sat down and drafted a document to be sent by the OA. He wrote "building materials" in his notepad. Many things today are restricted by this building material, and he must try to solve them in the meeting at night.

The twilight is getting thicker, and the day of D-Day is about to pass.Following the order to "stop work" from the walkie-talkie, the traversers who had worked on the peripheral construction site for a day gathered in twos and threes towards the camp.

The members of the logging team returned from the mangrove forest while talking.Carrying tools on their shoulders, although the body is exhausted, there is a kind of enthusiasm in everyone's heart, and the relationship between each other seems to have improved a lot.

The tide is receding, and the sea washes over rocks large and small in the bay.Looking from a distance, the western skyline shows the outline of the high angle.The blood-red sunset slowly sank amidst the scattered clouds.The sky and sea in Bopu Bay blend together and shine brightly.The sea water, as if being burned by a fire, turned golden red.

The fleet of travelers moored in the bay one by one. The dark shadows of the ships were inlaid with a radiant golden edge. These ordinary cargo ships and fishing boats, which could no longer be ordinary, seemed to them at this moment like the ones in Pascal Bay. The imperial fleet is generally magnificent.

The magnificent scenery made them mesmerized, and the inexplicable excitement made them silent. Not only them, but also the travelers who came back from other peripheral construction sites also slowed down, looking at this magnificent scene.

"Let's go, everyone, it's getting dark." The military team members at the back greeted them and checked to see if there were any traversers left behind.According to the plan, they will go last.Make sure no one is outside the campsite after dark.

"The gun tower!" Someone shouted, and everyone looked in the direction of the camp. The standing beacon tower had been surrounded by an earth fence, and a barbed wire fence was erected on it. At first glance, it really looked like a Japanese gun tower in an old movie.

After a day of construction, the entire camp took shape. With the beacon tower and the house of the inspection department as the core, the entire camp was in an irregular pentagonal shape.A trench with a width of 5 meters and a depth of 2 meters was excavated on the periphery to attract water from the Wenlan River. The inside of the trench was built 1 meter higher than the outside, and barbed wire was laid on the top.The barbed wire fence is 2 meters high, fixed with wooden stakes crossed, buried very firmly, and the lower part of the barbed wire fence is additionally laid with concertina-shaped barbed wire.After the barbed wire fence, a long wall was rammed with the soil dug from the trench, and trenches were dug on it.In addition, six 8-meter-high wooden sentry towers were built on the long base.

At this time, torches were lit along the long ramparts, illuminating the trenches brightly.The gates of the camp were open.On the gate tower, two sentries held rifles and stood beside a searchlight, and two calcium carbide lamps hung on the gate tower, the light was dazzling.Travelers pass through the gate, scan the dog tag at the manpower registration office at the gate, and then return the tools and surplus materials at the planning committee's storage point.

"Liu Zheng, right?" The female clerk of the manpower team looked at the personal information and photos displayed on the computer screen, and compared it with his face, "Your barracks number is No. 14, Block B."
