Chapter 1375 Zombies Are Really Useful!

Oil City.

Half past five in the evening.

Five helicopters appeared in the sky above Oil City. Liu Jinglue raised his head in Wengcheng and saw the helicopters with big camphor tree markings in the air.

I feel a little excited. Someone is coming from the headquarters. I wonder if my cousin is here.

Gathering his nerves, he continued with his business.

Today from ten o'clock in the morning to five thirty in the afternoon, survivors came out one after another.

Clicking on the number of people in the lower right corner showed that the number of people leaving the city today reached more than 13,000.

After most of these people received their weapons, they dispersed in the four directions of the trading market.

They don't care where these people go,

But after this natural disaster, the impression that the trading market was extremely safe had already been imprinted in their hearts.

Buzz buzz——

The helicopter landed slowly on the tarmac of Oil City.

The third uncle had already received the news that Cannon and the others were about to arrive in the conference room.

If a strange helicopter flies over and reaches the sky above the Oil City or even the trading market, anti-aircraft anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns will be activated immediately.

Quickly bomb the helicopters in the sky.

The air control at Da Zhangshu Base is even stricter.

Must be 20 kilometers away and report in advance.

After all, there are so many factories and residential buildings on the ground. Once an air attack occurs, irreparable losses will be caused.

The third uncle took Dongtai and others to the apron.

He knew that his son was here too.

After the helicopter docked and stabilized, Li Tie, Cannon and others came down.

"Dad." After Li Tie got off the helicopter, his emotions fluctuated slightly when he saw his father not far away.

I haven’t seen my father for more than three months. It seems that my father has lost a little weight.

Thunderstorms and natural disasters are so terrifying, and my father shoulders the heavy responsibility of being in charge of the oil city and trading bazaar.

There were so many survivors in the trading market, which attracted a huge wave of zombies. When he was at the headquarters base, he was a little worried when he heard Li Yu and his second uncle talking about Oil City.

Everything came over.

Looking at each other in silence, the third uncle and Li Tie were not the kind of pretentious people.

The third uncle nodded slightly and asked softly:

"Did you bring everything here?"

"I brought them all, and my second uncle also asked me to bring twenty tons of grain."

Food, the food here in Oil City has not been exhausted yet, but more is always more secure.

"good."

The third uncle nodded slightly, looked at the commander behind Dongtai and said:

"Carry everything down and fill the cabin with fuel cans after emptying it."

"In addition, the ultraviolet lamps will be assembled as soon as they arrive. It will probably get dark in another hour, so assemble them overnight. Once installed, they will be placed on the wall of the trading market."

"Yes." Dongtai waved to the back, and a large group of collaborators and non-staff members ran over to help.

Every time a helicopter flies from the headquarters base, it will be filled with fuel in Oil City, and unrefined crude oil will also be loaded directly onto the helicopter.

This way you don’t have to go back empty-handed and waste space.

After handing over to Dongtai and others, the third uncle took Li Tie and Cannon to the conference room.

Li Tie and Cannon followed the third uncle, and the third uncle asked:

"How are your mother and your brother doing lately?"

"My mother's lumbar herniation problem is getting better, and her high blood pressure has stabilized."

The third aunt is a traditional woman, and the third uncle has been working outside for many years. She raised the two brothers Li Gang and Li Tie alone without any complaints.

He was only in his forties, and because he often sat and used the sewing machine, he had some minor problems with his neck and lumbar spine.

Although this problem is minor, the pain can be really life-threatening.

No matter how majestic a man is on the outside, there is always a great woman behind him.

The third aunt is very traditional, kind-hearted but not pedantic.

Hearing that his wife's lumbar spine problem was much better, the third uncle's slightly frowned brows relaxed a lot.

"This is the fruit my mother asked me to bring you."

Li Tie took off a backpack he was carrying on his back, unzipped it and handed it to his third uncle.

Inside are some of Uncle San’s favorite fruits.

A warm current surged in the third uncle's heart, what a silly woman!

She always focused on him. When she got married more than 20 years ago, she didn't even have any decent jewelry, but this silly woman told herself that she could save a lot of money.

As long as he is at home, there will always be fruits prepared for him.

"Did Old Chinese Medicine Doctor Huagan treat it?"

"no."

Li Tie shook his head and said: "Qingyang gave her acupuncture, and the effect was very good. I heard Qingyang said that she only needs a dozen more acupunctures. In the later stage, she should pay attention to her sitting posture, and she should be cured."

"good."

The third uncle was in a much better mood and entered the conference room with a bag of fruit.

After sitting in the conference room, the expression on the third uncle's face returned to the way it had been before.

In the conference room, Ju Tianrui, Lao Yi and others were all there.

After Li Tie and Cannon came in, they sat down.

Li Tie looked at Cannon and motioned for him to speak.

Da Pao looked at Third Uncle and said:

"Minister, in addition to transporting supplies, we have something to talk to you about this time."

The third uncle nodded, "Say."

Li Tie looked at the people in the conference room, who were basically people from the inner city, and then said:

"Oil City can start building zombie generators. Now the headquarters base is concentrating on ultraviolet lamps. When the production of ultraviolet lamps is almost complete, the production of zombie generator equipment will begin.

It is expected that the first batch of zombie generator equipment will be transported in two weeks.

The president asked me to tell you that it is better to place the space for zombie generators in the bunker in advance."

Uncle San nodded slightly. The second brother had mentioned this to him.

The power consumption in Oil City is not large, but it is not small after adding the trading market.

After all, if the entire trading market is directly cut off at night and it is pitch black, it is not appropriate.

Some shady things are easy to happen in the dark.

In addition, ultraviolet lamps will be installed on the walls of the trading market later. So many ultraviolet lamps plus high-power searchlights will require a lot of electricity.

Although the diesel generators in Oil City can produce enough electricity by consuming diesel.

But after all, oil is a non-renewable energy source.

Every bit of saving is a bit of saving.

Zombie generators will not lose much. At most, they will clean up some waste zombies regularly and replace them with a batch of new zombies.

There are simply too many zombies to use now.

Perhaps in the future, zombies will become a universal energy production tool.

In fact, many bunkers have been built in the Oil City, but most of the space is used to store crude oil and various miscellaneous materials.

There are still some spaces that can be used to place zombie generators, but these bunkers are scattered.

The total area of ​​the Oil City is only a few hundred acres, and there is still a large area of ​​oil well mining areas that are not suitable for digging down.

Uncle San frowned and thought for a while.

Suddenly I had an idea that this kind of zombie generator also has certain hidden dangers.

For example, in the camphor tree base, the zombie generator was placed in the bunker of the third outer city.

The ground of the third outer city is basically a greenhouse, and the few buildings built are used to store some unimportant materials.

Usually, except for the planting personnel and those who go to the buildings to get materials and supplies, there are basically few people in the third outer city.

And in the Oil City, it is really not easy to find a suitable place to place the zombie generator.

He thought of the ancient tomb in the central and western districts of the trading market before.

The ancient tomb is eight to ten meters below the ground, dark and humid, which is suitable for zombies.

Zombies have low power generation efficiency in dry and hot places.

"Ju Tianrui, what is the ancient tomb mainly used for now?"

Ju Tianrui just heard Da Pao talking about the storage place of zombie generators, and now the minister asked about the ancient tomb.

He immediately understood Uncle San's idea.

He quickly answered: "It is mainly for members of the affiliated forces in the North to live in."

"Yeah"

Uncle San nodded slightly. The area in the ancient tomb is quite large, more than 20 acres.

It is very suitable for placing zombie generators, and the ancient tomb has not leaked for thousands of years, which is enough to prove how reasonable and ingenious the design of this ancient tomb is.

Moreover, the ancient tomb has not made too many changes so far, and there is only one tomb door.

That is to say, you only need to close the tomb door again and seal it with concrete grouting.

Make a three or four meter thick reinforced concrete seal, and people in the trading market cannot enter the ancient tomb.

As for digging seven or eight meters above the ancient tomb, or even ten meters, digging into the ancient tomb.

It's impossible.

There is no building above the ancient tomb, it's just an open space.

They can see this side from the walls of the Oil City.

If someone digs above the ancient tomb, not only will the people on the walls of the Oil City see it, but the patrols in the trading market will also find it.

Besides, it takes at least seven or eight meters to dig down, which may be a big noise.

"I have an idea, let's see if it works."

"The area of ​​the ancient tomb is suitable and large enough."

"The underground is cooler and suitable for zombies to survive. We will seal the door of the ancient tomb in the trading market, and dig a passage on the Oil City side to connect to the ancient tomb.

Put the zombie generator in that ancient tomb."

Pah pah pah!

Lao Yi's face was excited, and he said with great approval:

"Good idea."

"In this way, it is very convenient, and there is no need to dig such a large area. The passage can even be smaller, and a width of two meters is enough. In this way, even if there is a problem with the zombie generator, we can easily control it in the Oil City."

Indeed.

After all, a single zombie generator is not big, as long as the excavated channel is large enough to lay cables and can accommodate two people walking in parallel, it will be enough.

The project is small.

"How far is it from the oil city to the ancient tomb?" Uncle San asked.

Squeaky——

Ju Tianrui quickly stood up and walked to the cabinet next to him to flip through it.

He found the topographic map of the ancient tomb.

The entire ancient tomb was explored by them, and the entire ancient tomb was in the trading market.

It was distributed in a long and narrow shape.

It was located between the trading market wall and the oil city wall.

The door of the ancient tomb was facing the trading market wall, about fifty meters away from the trading market wall.

It was only fifty meters away from the oil city wall.

"Minister, it's very close, only fifty meters away. It can be operated completely." Ju Tianrui pushed the map in front of Uncle San.

Uncle San took a look and thought: "Well, there is a question. Do you think someone will dig a tunnel outside the trading market to enter this ancient tomb? And then enter our oil city."

"Impossible."

Old Yi stood up. "When Ding Jiu, the chief engineer of the trading market, was here, I talked to him. The foundation of the trading market wall reached ten meters. The foundation is made of reinforced concrete, which is extremely solid and reaches five or six meters."

"If someone wants to dig into the ancient tomb, or enter the oil city, it is unlikely."

"It is too difficult to dig below ten meters."

"And the two kilometers around the trading market are all plains. If someone digs, we will definitely see it on the trading market wall."

"Farther away, we often have people go out for patrols, and once someone digs, we will definitely see it."

"Unless digging is more than ten kilometers away, and heavy equipment is used for digging, it will take a long time for manpower to dig. If heavy equipment is used for digging, there must be a lot of noise, and we heard it immediately."

Uncle San nodded slightly. When the trading market wall was built, he was not here. At that time, he was still in the northern border.

He didn't know much about the infrastructure of the trading market.

"Minister, I think this ancient tomb in the trading market is really suitable for placing zombie generators, and it is also suitable for growing crops."

"Indoor planting, in addition to water, needs supplementary lighting, that is, electricity. But the zombie generator is generating electricity next to it, and it can be used directly to supplement the light and control the temperature of the plants."

It is indeed a waste to use more than 20 acres of area to place zombie generators for power generation.

The camphor tree base did not take out so much area to generate electricity for zombies.

More than 20 acres, one acre is 666 square meters, more than 20 acres is 16,650 square meters.

On average, one zombie generator occupies three square meters, so there can be 5,550 zombie generators.

One zombie generator generates 0.6 kWh of electricity per hour. It generates 14.4 kWh of electricity a day.

Zombies don't need to rest, just squeeze them to death, and replace them when they are useless.

A zombie generates 14 kWh of electricity a day, and 5,550 zombies generate 77,000 kWh of electricity.

Ten days is 770,000 kWh, and 100 days is 7.77 million kWh of electricity. A year is more than 20 million kWh of electricity.

It can't be used up at all.

Generally speaking, the power generation of small hydropower stations before the end of the world ranged from hundreds of thousands to millions.

If the ancient tomb is filled with zombie generators, the power generated is extremely terrifying.

It is not much less than a medium-sized hydropower station.

They can't use it up at all.

And it's still a bit scary to think about placing five or six thousand zombies in the ancient tomb.

In addition, zombie generator equipment can't produce so many.

These thoughts flashed through Uncle San's mind.

He knocked on the table.

He said to everyone:

"Then divide five acres of area to place zombie generators, and the remaining fifteen acres for indoor planting."

There has always been a huge flaw in the oil city, that is, it can't produce food by itself.

Previously, there were one or two acres of planting areas in the oil city, but they were all destroyed in several natural disasters.

In the unpredictable end-of-the-world environment, it is difficult to plant without any shelter on the ground and without a sun shed, and there are too many uncertain factors.

Maybe after working hard for several months, it is almost harvest time, and a natural disaster comes, and several months of hard work will go to waste.

The yield of fifteen acres used to plant food is definitely not large.

Compared with the people in the oil city, it is not self-sufficient at all.

It is equivalent to hundreds of acres of planting area in the headquarters base, and these fifteen acres of planting area are like a joke.

But!

At least if there is another natural disaster in the future, there will be no communication with the headquarters base.

There is no need to eat up the mountain. Although the output is not much, there is output anyway.

"I agree!" Ju Tianrui raised his right hand when he heard his uncle's words.

"I agree too!" Lao Yi also raised his hand.

Dongtai was busy outside, and Lao Xie was still on the wall of the trading market.

Li Tie and Da Pao looked at each other. They didn't know much about this place, after all, they hadn't stayed here for a long time.

Since Uncle San has said so, I naturally agree.

The two of them raised their hands at the same time.

"Okay, Ju Tianrui, this matter will be left to you. Tell Jie Changshan clearly and ask him to seal the door of the ancient tomb."

"Yes."
