Chapter 631 The Long Cold Season (Part 1)

At the Da Zhangshu base, people are busy and everyone is busy working.

The weather is getting colder every day. If you don't do many things before the weather is so cold, you won't be able to do anything until it's like last year.

The cold wind howled.

At noon, Li Yu came to the warehouse.

The door of the warehouse was closed, but Li Yu just heard that Li Yuan, Haoxian, Haoran, Li Peizhen, and Li Zhengping were checking for rats in the morning.

He also had the key to enter the warehouse, so instead of knocking on the door and calling them, he used the key to open the door to the warehouse himself.

After opening the warehouse door, he didn't open it very wide. Instead, he pushed it open slightly and stepped in.

After entering the first door, there was a space of about thirty square meters, with some less important items placed on the left and right sides.

And in the innermost part, there is another door.

Double insurance, in order to improve security.

This second door was not closed, but opened a small gap, and Li Yu pushed the door open and entered.

As soon as they came in, they saw Li Yuan and the others forming a circle and squatting in it.

Um?

Could it be that there are really mice!

The sound of footsteps attracted the attention of Li Yuan and the others, and they looked up to see Li Yu.

"elder brother."

"Brother."

"Brother."

"What do you mean? Are there really rats?" Li Yu frowned and said.

Li Haoran pointed to a pile of cockroach corpses on the ground and said: "The mice haven't found it yet, but they have found cockroaches."

Among southern children, few are afraid of creatures like cockroaches.

After all, I have seen adulthood since childhood.

Looking at the cockroach that was bigger than his thumb, Li Yu frowned and said, "Where did you catch it?"

Li Yuan shook his head and said, "I didn't catch them. After the meeting yesterday, I asked Bai Jie and Teacher Ma to help them make some cockroach medicine and put it in the food area at night. I didn't expect it to pass overnight. So many cockroaches came out."

"Which part of the food area?" Li Yu asked.

You know, their food section occupies most of the area, and different types of food have different storage conditions.

For example, some of the more precious foods are vacuum packed and stored in a special room.

But for example, drinks are placed randomly in the outermost area.

This underground warehouse is very large, with a height of seven or eight meters and an area of ​​2,000 square meters.

As early as when the apocalypse first broke out, most of Li Yu's funds were used to build this warehouse and purchase massive supplies.

In order to preserve these materials, Li Yu specifically asked the construction workers to build according to ultra-high standards.

The thickness of the cement grout reaches two meters, and it also provides facilities for ventilation, heat insulation, heat preservation, lighting, dehumidification and other functions.

This underground warehouse structure has been reasonably partitioned.

In the key food area, separated by walls, there is a long corridor with some rooms on both sides, some large and some small, divided into categories. There are standard and well-stored tool information on it.

Hearing Li Yu's question, Li Yuan replied: "All the food areas have put cockroach medicine, but when I came here this morning, I found cockroaches in the area where the flour is mainly found, and no other areas were found."

One of the biggest advantages of partition isolation is that even if there is a problem in one area, other places will not be affected.

Li Yu nodded and said, "That's good, I'll go in and check."

After speaking, Li Yu walked inside.

The first thing he came to was the gun store. The gun store occupied a large area and had a lock on the door.

Li Yu opened the door with the key, pushed the door and entered.

Seeing these firearms, bullets and mortars arranged neatly, Li Yu closed the door and walked around inside.

No cockroaches or mice were found. When I walked to the door, I saw an entry and exit book hanging on the door.

This book is used as a backup to note every time a person in the base is approved for use and registers for entry and exit.

Li Yu briefly looked through it and found that he knew most of the above usage records. There were also some that he didn't know much about, but they were all small batch usage records, and clearly stated the reasons for use and the quantities used. And there are Li Yuan and his second uncle, as well as the signatures of the applicant.

"Application for 5 assault rifles with 500 rounds of ammunition. Purpose: Go to Xincheng and change shifts. Applicant: Deng Ben. Signature of approver: Li Hongda. Signature of warehouse manager: Li Yuan." Li Yu looked at it and read slowly road.

He read the entire book and found no problems, so he hung the book back to its original position.

After coming out of the gun store, Li Yu strolled to the rice storage warehouse.

Rice is the most stored food in Da Zhangshu Base. Because there are too many reserves, it is divided into three areas.

Li Yu entered one of the rooms and saw an area of ​​200 square meters filled with rice. It is surrounded by a large steel plate, and a funnel-shaped opening is used at a height of more than one meter, which can be taken out at any time.

The rice is not piled directly against the wall or directly on the ground.

It is about 20 centimeters away from the wall and about 10 centimeters above the ground. It is supported by some hollow steel plates.

Li Yu moved a ladder, climbed to a height of more than seven meters, opened the lid and looked at the storage conditions inside.

In this rice storage warehouse, the constant indoor temperature is about 5 degrees, which is the most suitable temperature for rice storage.

It's also drier indoors.

There is a detection instrument near the door, which records the indoor temperature and humidity.

Li Yu checked and found no problems, so he left the room.

Immediately afterwards, he went to other places to check. In a grain storage warehouse, he saw something wrong with a vent in the room, so he recorded it.

It took nearly an hour to check the entire warehouse, and there was no major problem.

When they came out, Li Yuan and the others were placing some rat poison in various areas and recording it.

Li Yu walked up to Li Yuan and said to her: "Just now I went to check the whole thing. There is no major problem. It is the ventilation part. One of the miscellaneous grain warehouses is broken. You will ask Xiaohang to come and repair it later."

Li Yuan muttered: "Second brother, he has been studying the zombie generator in the outer city recently. He leaves early and comes back late. My sister-in-law can't find him today."

After hearing this, Li Yu thought for a while and said, "It's okay. I'll talk to him later and let him balance his time."

"Um."

Li Yu glanced at them and reminded: "You must remember to recycle these rat poisons, and don't miss them, so as not to forget to take them by mistake."

"Understood, brother." Li Yuan nodded and said.

"Okay, then you continue, I'll go out first." After Li Yu finished speaking, he walked out of the warehouse.

As soon as we left the warehouse, the sun was shining brightly, and if it hadn't been a bit cold, it would have been very comfortable outside.

After leaving the warehouse, we walked towards the greenhouse that was being built.

For the construction of the greenhouse, one-third of the basic frame has been built, and the entire frame will be erected in another week.

Once the frame is built, as long as the covering PC solar panels are in place, the construction speed can be very fast.

Ding Jiu saw Li Yu coming and asked Lao Zhou to continue while he walked over.

"Mr. Li, Xiao Hu and the others have transported our PC solar panels over the past few days, but some of them have problems. Due to natural disasters, some of the solar panels were severely damaged and could no longer be used. In our city, there are only Those companies have this PC sun panel.

In recent days, He Chao and his non-staff collaborators have almost emptied the solar panels from those houses, but it is still not enough. "

"How come it's not enough?" Li Yu said with some confusion.

Logically speaking, their combined area is less than a hundred acres.

How could a factory that specializes in producing this material have no inventory?

Although it is said that before the end of the world, many factories began to implement the model of placing orders and then starting work to reduce inventory backlogs.

But there are always dozens of acres of PC sun panels.

Ding Jiu said with a bitter face: "There are two of them. Due to natural disasters, the factory building collapsed, and the sun panels inside were squeezed and deformed. The remaining one was also seriously damaged after the end of the world. There is really no way. Now we are facing The biggest problem is that there are not enough PC sun panels."

Li Yu hesitated and said, "Then do you know where this material is around?"

"Yes, there is one in Shishi City next door. It's not far away. It's in the southwest corner of us. It can be reached in two and a half hours by car."

Li Yu said: "Two and a half hours is impossible. The road outside is very difficult now. It would be good if we can get there in three hours."

When Ding Jiu heard what Li Yu said, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Li Yu finally said: "It's okay, the more these materials, the better, and you need to stock up more, and if any piece is broken later, you can replace it.

You just concentrate on setting up the frame, and I will handle the PC solar panels. "

Ding Jiu breathed a sigh of relief. It was his idea to use this PC solar panel. He originally thought that there were several companies with this material in the city, but after actual practice, he found that the available materials were not enough.

And it is true.

With the passage of time and the impact of natural disasters, more and more things outside are either soaked in water and cannot be used, or due to the impact of extreme weather, some things are damaged.

In the future, these things will continue to decay and age until they are completely useless.

But Li Yu and the others couldn't move all the things outside. They still had important things to do. It would take time and energy to find available things and move them in.

Therefore, when Li Yu initially planned to expand, he adopted the model of non-staff personnel and cooperative personnel, and used this method to allow outsiders to try to collect useful things for the base.

After talking to Ding Jiu, Li Yu planned to find someone and let them handle the matter.

In fact, most of the time, most of the materials collected by non-staff and cooperating personnel are found in the city and will not leave too far.

In this city, at least we know the situation here, but going to other cities is even more dangerous.

But obviously, Zhu Xiao is not such a person. He usually does not search in the city, but goes outside the city to search.

With his fierce force, he did not give up even if he met other survivor teams in the outer city.

While going further afield is more dangerous, the rewards are also greater.

Li Yu was thinking about this matter on the way to the wall.

Many non-staff personnel, or cooperating personnel, are not strong after all. The key is that there is a relatively large gap in transportation capacity compared with the people in the Dazhangshu base.

Logically speaking, the most appropriate way is to release this task and let non-staff or cooperative personnel go to other cities to find transportation back.

However, not many people go to other cities, and the transportation capacity is not sufficient.

The most important thing is that the frame of the greenhouse is about to be built. Once it is built, the PC solar panels can be installed.

Time is of the essence.

It's getting colder every day now.

In a month, we will enter a long and cold winter like last year.

In the long cold weather, if they don't build a greenhouse, the land will be wasted and they will not be able to grow food, and the food will also be under great pressure.

It must be done as soon as possible.

Li Yu made up his mind to let people in the base search for this PC sun panel and bring it back.

After making up his mind, Li Yu came to the duty room on the wall. As soon as he entered the duty room on the wall, he saw his second uncle and his eldest uncle chatting.

"Xiaoyu is here." Uncle said.

"Uncle, second uncle, second uncle and Lao Lu went out this morning." Li Yu said.

The uncle said: "Yes, they went out in the morning. The food processing mentioned yesterday is in the factory in Xincheng. It happened that he hadn't gone out for a long time, so he took people out by himself. With Lao Lu here, there should be no question."

Li Yu nodded slightly and said: "Now the greenhouse is encountering some problems. There are not enough PC solar panels, so we have to go further to collect them."

When the uncle heard the words, he immediately said: "Didn't Ding Jiu say before that there are several in our city? The area we want to cover is not large, how could it not be enough?"

He couldn't understand that a company that specialized in making this material would be enough.

Li Yu thought so at first, but Ding Jiu's reasons are understandable.

The second uncle explained at this time: "I talked with Ding Jiu about this problem before, but I didn't expect that there were so many shortages. I checked the PC sun panels brought over from Xiao Hu's side, and some of them It is somewhat damaged, so those damaged items are not counted in redeeming points.

But Xiao Hu also complained to me that although there are still many PC sun panels in those companies, many of them are damaged, and they have already selected them and then transported them.

Others that were not moved were even more damaged. "

Li Yu pondered slightly, and said: "We must hurry up, and the greenhouse must be built within a month. Otherwise, there is no way to resume normal planting later."

The second uncle nodded and said, "Then we have to find a new factory with this material."

Li Yu said: "Ding Jiu said that there are several stores in Shishi, and they are not very far. I think it is better to transport them back in one trip to save trouble."
