Chapter 803 Rest, the Typhoon Is Coming
As the number of personnel at the Camphor Tree Base increased, Li Yu actually understood that the assessment method was very troublesome and inefficient.
However, Li Yu firmly felt that this must be done.
If once released, those people were allowed to enter the outer city without being tested.
If even the companions living under their noses could not guarantee their loyalty, it would actually make people more worried and afraid.
It would be better to have fewer people than to be always on edge. Anyway, Li Yu had never thought about saving the world.
As long as he had enough self-protection ability and would not be targeted and killed in this doomsday, he felt that it was enough.
In a short time, Li Yu finished thinking about these in his mind.
Then he said to his second uncle: "I have an idea. It happens that in two days, we will return to the Oil City, so let Zuo Ruxue and the others go together."
"Ah? Let them go? What is the purpose?" The second uncle frowned and asked.
Li Yu patiently told his second uncle about the situation in the Oil City.
After all, time was tight yesterday, so he only talked about the general situation. The second uncle did not know the specific situation of the Oil City.
Li Yu told his uncle about his considerations.
His uncle's eyes lit up, and he nodded and said, "This method is not bad. The Oil City is relatively short of manpower, but it is of great significance.
Compared with those people from the original Oil City, Zuo Ruxue and others are obviously more trustworthy. I think this method is very good, let's do it."
Hearing his uncle's affirmation, Li Yu smiled, and then said, "Okay, then you can talk to Zuo Ruxue and others at that time, and let them prepare in the next two days and leave in two days. Remember to tell them not to bring too many things."
The uncle closed the notebook and nodded, saying, "I know."
Li Yu hummed and was about to leave.
The uncle suddenly stopped Li Yu, hesitant, and hesitant to speak.
After thinking for a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and asked, "Xiao Yu, I see that you asked He Chao and Ding Jiu to reinforce some places in the base these two days. Do you feel that something will happen?"
In fact, this is not the first time Li Yu has done this.
From the previous high temperature, cold, volcanic eruption and other problems, Li Yu seemed to be able to predict the future and prepare for the base in advance.
This allowed the base to avoid losses again and again.
Even before the zombie outbreak, Li Yu had already started to prepare to build this base.
This makes people think deeply, why Li Yu knew it.
However, so far no one will ask Li Yu, and no one dares to ask Li Yu this question.
The core personnel in the base are either Li Yu’s relatives or survivors rescued by Li Yu. They are very loyal to Li Yu, so if Li Yu doesn’t want to say it, they can’t ask.
What’s more, people have a strong ability to make up their own minds.
In the eyes of some people, they may think that Li Yu has the ability to predict the future. After all, zombies have appeared, and it is reasonable for humans to have a prophet.
When the second uncle asked Li Yu, he just asked why he did these things, but there was no basis for doing so.
That’s because in the past two or three years, Li Yu has proved himself with correct decisions again and again.
People have inertia. Once the same result is repeated many times, fixed cognition will naturally be formed.
Li Yu turned his head and looked at his second uncle in surprise. He actually didn't ask people to do much, and it was still relatively routine. He didn't expect his second uncle to be so sensitive.
After thinking for a while, Li Yu said, "It's just that there have been some natural disasters in the past two years. Now it hasn't happened for several months. I always feel a little uneasy. I want to make some preparations. I just saw some problems, so I asked He Chao to do it."
Such an explanation is reasonable.
The second uncle nodded and said, "If you didn't say it, I wouldn't have felt it. It's true. You are right. In this case, when the third outer city is built, I will ask them to reinforce the base."
Li Yu heard this and thought it was okay to do so. Anyway, it's to check for deficiencies and make up for them.
So he said, "Okay."
The second uncle looked at the residential building in the second outer city and suddenly said, "In fact, I think it's not a good idea to always put the zombie generator and zombies in that residential building. I always think it would be better to put them underground. What do you think?"
Li Yu smiled and said, "I think so too, but it takes time to build an underground fortress. Let's talk about it after the third outer city is built later."
The second uncle didn't say anything. When Li Yu saw that the second uncle had nothing to say, he said hello to the second uncle and left.
In fact, the camphor tree base is actually quite stable for the typhoon that will come soon.
Apart from other things, the buildings inside and outside, whether it is the walls or the foundations of the residential buildings, are very deep, and the typhoon will definitely not blow them.
Even the greenhouse was threatened by strong winds and rainstorms at the beginning of its construction, so it was built very firmly when it was built.
However, it is better to be safe than sorry.
I don't know how much damage the typhoon will cause.
All Li Yu can do is to make the best efforts to prepare.
Since the military radio was installed, the Dazhangshu base has been communicating with the Oil City every day.
After Li Yu and his second uncle discussed it, his second uncle notified Zuo Ruxue and the others to prepare, and at the same time informed his third uncle who was thousands of miles away.
After the third uncle heard the news, he also applauded.
The second uncle also told the third uncle about Li Yu's concerns about natural disasters. The third uncle also felt that Li Yu's worries were quite reasonable, so he also asked Ju Tianrui and others to repair the walls inside the oil city. Some buildings were reinforced.
After Li Yu explained a series of things, he came to the scientific research room.
The scientific research office is located in the Wengcheng between the second outer city and the inner city. With the increase in personnel, the scientific research office has also been expanded.
There were even a few more people inside.
For example, the students who saved Teacher Liu are now adults, helping here and learning some knowledge.
Pushing open the door of the scientific research institute, Li Yu strode in.
After everyone saw him, they paused slightly and called Mr. Li. Li Yu told them to continue working and not worry about him.
Bai Jie came over and was about to speak.
Li Yu asked first: "How is the progress of aviation kerosene?"
Bai Jie glanced at him resentfully, but when she heard Li Yu ask, she walked in front of him and said, "Teacher Kong Shuang and the others are working on it, but not here. I will take you there."
Li Yu followed.
Walked through a door and came to a wider area.
What came into view was a huge vessel filled with black oil.
It seems that this should be the refining equipment.
Li Yu couldn't understand these devices, but he could get under the container, which seemed to be burning, so the whole space was a little stuffy.
"Teacher Kong Shuang, Mr. Li is here." Bai Jie shouted towards Kong Shuang who was busy.
After this period of contact, Bai Jie was impressed by Kong Shuang's knowledge, so she respectfully called her Teacher Kong.
After Kong Shuang heard Bai Jie's voice, she turned her head in surprise.
Then he said: "Director Bai, you told me not to call me teacher. Mr. Li, you are here too."
Kong Shuang walked over and took off the labor protection gloves in his hands.
Li Yu nodded and asked: "How is the aviation kerosene issue?"
Kong Shuang adjusted her glasses and introduced to Li Yu: "It is still being refined, but don't worry, Mr. Li, we will be able to give you the aviation kerosene you need in two days."
"Do you need me to introduce you to the principle of refining?"
Li Yu refused in his heart, and he didn't understand, but it was hard to refuse the kindness, so he said with interest on his face: "Okay, you say it."
Kong Shuang pointed at the leftmost vessel seriously and said:
"In fact, petroleum must be processed before use to make petroleum products suitable for various uses. The common processing method is fractionation, which uses the principle of different molecular sizes and different boiling points to separate hydrogen compounds and then chemically treat them methods to increase the value of the product.”
Li Yu nodded, indicating that he understood.
Kong Shuang continued:
“So, this machine heats the oil to between 400°C and 500°C, turns it into steam, and then feeds it into the fractionation tower.
Well, that is the fractionating tower. In the fractionating tower, the higher the position, the lower the temperature. Petroleum vapor will gradually liquefy, cool and condense into liquid fractions as it rises.
Gaseous fractions with smaller molecules and lower boiling points slowly rise along the tower and condense at the upper levels of the tower, such as fuel gas, kerosene, etc.
Liquid fractions with larger molecules and higher boiling points condense at the bottom of the tower, such as diesel.
The viscous residue left at the bottom of the tower is asphalt and heavy oil, which can be used as raw materials for coking and producing asphalt.
"
Li Yu felt that he understood, but he felt that he didn't understand. It was better to leave this kind of matter to professionals.
When Kong Shuang was about to continue speaking, Li Yu interrupted her and said, "Okay, very good. Let's talk about the rest next time. In two days, I will send someone over to get aviation kerosene. Thank you for your hard work."
Kong Shuang: "Aba Aba."
Li Yu then left, and Bai Jie, the goblin, followed behind, seeming to have an agenda.
But being ruthlessly rejected by Li Yu, Bai Jie's eyes were extremely resentful.
Li Yu sighed leisurely.
After leaving the scientific research room, Li Yu returned to the villa area in the inner city.
It's a little scary to be calm inside.
In the base, everyone is busy now.
Whether it's the second uncle, Li Yuan, or even Li Hang, they all have their own division of labor.
After explaining the matter, Li Yu suddenly became an idler with nothing to do.
People have also been assigned to take charge of the things that need to be prepared before the typhoon comes. All you need to do is keep an eye on the situation.
With nothing going on, Li Yu rarely had a moment of leisure, so he returned to the basement of the villa area.
I took a bottle of red wine from the basement warehouse, then went to the screening room on the first floor of the basement, and immediately chose a movie to watch.
The soundproofing effect in the screening room was very good. He smoked and drank while watching the movie leisurely, feeling very uncomfortable.
This kind of relaxed state can only be found in the Da Zhangshu Base.
Returning to the base is like a ship answering the harbor. The sea is calm and makes people feel relaxed.
A movie and a bottle of red wine, Li Yu drank until he was tipsy and slowly fell asleep.
When he woke up, he saw that it was already evening and the movie on the projector had played to the end.
Li Yu laughed at himself, then picked up the empty wine bottle, turned off the projector, and answered on the ground.
Li Yu has been quite leisurely these two days, running around in the base and seeing that everyone has become accustomed to the current rhythm and is busy on their own.
The most important thing is that they are all working on the corresponding tasks, gradually getting started and fully mastering them.
This makes Li Yu very pleased.
Seeing this scene, Li Yu also felt that this is exactly the purpose of building this base. Strength comes from numbers. Only by gathering people together and working together can we build a stronger base.
If we rely on fighting alone, it will be too difficult to survive in this doomsday, and we will worry about the attacks of zombies every day, which is completely different from the ease of today.
The key to achieving this step lies in food and people.
If there is enough food, people will be at peace, and reliable people will be able to unite and work together.
Otherwise, like some forces, although there are many people, they are scheming and fighting for power and profit, and the internal consumption is too serious.
Li Yu is very happy. The current Dazhangshu Base is more and more like what he imagined.
After spending two days leisurely.
Finally on this day.
Li Yu and his team are going back to the Oil City.
The main reason for going back this time is to establish a transfer station between the Oil City and the Dazhangshu Base.
On the other hand, Li Yu also had to go to the Oil City to see the progress of the wall repair.
The guns and ammunition in the helicopter had been moved to the warehouse, and it was now empty.
In the morning, Li Yu sent Li Tie to the research room to pull the kerosene truck needed for the helicopter.
After refueling the helicopter, they used kerosene instead of diesel this time, so they didn't have to stop for refueling like last time.
While saving time, the risk of stopping for refueling was eliminated.
Soon.
Li Yu asked Da Pao and his helicopter to push it into the city.
At this time, the gate opened, and He Chao walked in with Zuo Ruxue and others.
It was obvious that Zuo Ruxue and others seemed a little nervous, after all, they had to go so far.
Due to the reminder of the second uncle, they did not carry too many things.
Li Yu looked at them, waved his hand, and let them get on the helicopter.
Jackal had a good rest these days. After communicating with Xiaoyong these two days, he found that Xiaoyong seemed to have become more optimistic than before.
In the inner city, he made a few good friends, but he heard that he was always beaten up by Xuanxuan during the fighting class.
When he heard that Xiaoyong had been asking him to teach him some fighting skills in the past two days, the jackal was quite relieved.
The helicopter was filled with fuel, and Li Yu, Li Tie and others, as well as Zuo Ruxue and others, all got on the helicopter.
There was no cargo on this helicopter. Li Yu and his friends only carried some guns and ammunition that were enough for them.
So more people could be loaded.
There was no problem at all for Zuo Ruxue and her twenty or thirty people to get on the helicopter.
It was just that Li Yu always felt as if there was something that he hadn't done.
It wasn't until he saw Aunt San that he remembered it.
He didn't bring the fruit for Uncle San, so before taking off, he quickly asked Li Yuan to get two sacks out.
Throw it on the helicopter.
Whoosh whoosh——
As the helicopter took off, Li Yu looked at the gradually shrinking camphor tree base.
He murmured in his heart: When I come back from this trip, I guess the typhoon will be almost here.
