blackstone code

Chapter 2637
The people above the No. [-] wellhead looked down the well in horror. No one knew what had just happened. They only knew that a super strong shock wave rose from the bottom of the well.

All kinds of materials that were being hoisted downwards were overturned, and the workers who were changing shifts in the hanging baskets in mid-air also fell down one after another!
A large plume of black smoke came out from the bottom of the well, and then people could only see a red dot, which was getting bigger!
The geological supervisor immediately got through the phone call here. He loudly and without any grace asked the people at the other wellheads to send the prepared bombs down!
Obviously he underestimated the pressure in the magma channel when the window was actively opened. Only by putting down the bomb and continuing to open the window can the rising speed of the magma be stabilized!

Make it stop, even come down!

Once the magma rises, all their work these days will be in vain!

Staff at other wellheads began to carry explosives onto the gondola. At the same time, there were people at the bottom of the well who frantically rang the bell to ask for the gondola to be put down.

After a very short period of thinking, the people in charge made a very friendly decision——

Have some guards go down with weapons to make sure all the explosives are planted and detonated.

The gondola was quickly arranged, with a gondola worker and explosives, and a gondola guard.

There are risks, but not much.

There are hanging baskets carrying explosives down from each wellhead. The black smoke at the No. [-] wellhead is still increasing, and the magma is also rising rapidly.

The only good thing is that the well walls under the other wellheads have not yet shown obvious heat, which shows that the well walls made of tungsten steel can block the spread of magma in other directions.

The phones at the construction site were completely buzzed with calls from workers at the bottom of the well begging for more hanging baskets to be put down. Although they didn’t know what exactly happened at the No. [-] wellhead, they knew very well that if they dug further they would be dead!
Considering that these slaves and homeless people are also "skilled workers" and special skilled workers, the management finally decided to put down the hanging basket and give them as much chance of survival as possible.

Explosions were heard from Shafts One to Nine as the slaves and vagabonds were completely removed from the bottom of the shaft.

Explosives exploded at the bottom of the well, blowing through the lava channel or opening a crack in it.

The huge pressure forced the magma to find its way out and began to rise rapidly.

This time they did not "erupt", there was no huge shock wave, just a rapidly rising "water level".

The engineers responsible for installing the geothermal generator began to control large machines, set up the components of the generator set on the mine, and then began welding.

The rolling heat wave surged up from the bottom of the well earlier than the magma, which also brought a lot of instability to the work, but fortunately everything was under control.

Soon the welding work was completed at the wellhead, and then the pipe began to be pressurized to prevent magma from surging up.

Then a large number of components began to be installed in batches, and the entire process lasted four days.

Almost everyone is staring here, including some engineers from other shelters.

This is the first formal installation and use of a geothermal generator. Previous tests of geothermal generators were based on existing natural windowed magma channels.

This time, the magma channel is completely artificially opened. This is the first time that humans have used magma to generate electricity. No matter which step it takes, it is a huge progress for humans in the issue of power generation!
When the team of engineers responsible for researching geothermal generators slammed the button, a large amount of water was sprayed into the pipe.

The moment these water droplets fell on the magma, they turned into water vapor and rose with the air flow. The pressure gauge of the generator unit was instantly full, and the heavy gears covered with butter began to rotate.

After a few flashes, a tungsten light bulb began to glow, getting brighter and brighter!

Everyone started applauding, this is a great invention!

The flashlight kept flashing, and reporters (black market news employees) quickly pressed the shutter or pointed the lens at the light bulb to record this great moment!

Engineers and designers from other shelters came over to observe the operation of the generator set.

All I can say is that it is very stable, extremely stable!
"...These high-pressure steam will send thermal resources into the shelter through this heat output pipe."

"In this way, in addition to using geothermal heat to maintain the space temperature of the shelter, the shelter will also receive additional thermal resources such as heating and hot water."

"The sewage discharged from the shelter after simple treatment will be circulated back here through the pipes, and then sprayed into the pipes, where it will be gasified into steam again."

"The impurities, germs, and viruses in it will be completely destroyed at high temperatures, and we will get clean distilled water."

"The distilled water will be sorted at the shelter to remove some of the harmful impurities and then delivered for drinking, irrigation or other purposes."

The engineer introduced the operation of the entire geothermal power plant in detail. It can not only provide electricity for the shelter, but also continuously provide heat resources.

This is definitely important good news for people during the Ice Age in extremely cold weather!
Because the overall circulation system has not yet been installed, it is circulated in place for pressure testing.

It will be left running for a short period of time to check how it works in practice.At the same time, other power plants have also begun to enter the preparatory stage of construction. After all, this place must support at least 80 people, and only one geothermal power plant is definitely not enough!

The next day, the news was on the front page of almost every newspaper. Geothermal generators solved the energy gap in ice age refuges.

Maybe it won't allow people in the shelter to squander power resources endlessly, but it can at least protect people's basic lives.

Many people are very optimistic that with the development of science and technology, geothermal power generation technology will only become more mature in ten years and will bring higher power generation efficiency and power.

Some people even jokingly believe that mankind has solved the energy problem!
Blackstone stocks began to soar again, and at the same time, all stocks related to geothermal power generation technology also began to rise rapidly.

Orders for geothermal generators have also begun to appear like snowflakes. Many non-federal countries hope to obtain geothermal generators and related technologies as soon as possible to provide sufficient energy for shelters.

Lynch is even applying to the Federal Power Commission to directly connect the electricity from geothermal generators to the federal power grid to provide power to all federal users.

This is indeed a great era, and all science and technology are booming at a speed that is unimaginable to humans.

But not all the news is good news. For example, the radio reconnaissance array, a project that Lynch collaborated with the military to capture enemies beyond visual range through radio signals, has been basically successful.

The military has completed various tests in recent experiments, and the results are very beautiful, but at this time, it has been sealed.

Everyone knows that war will never break out, at least there is no need for human beings to break out of war now.

Everyone is digging holes and waiting to spend the "winter", who the hell has the heart to start a war and waste resources and time?

So after twenty machines had been built, the whole project was discontinued.

All funds, manpower, and material resources have been invested in shelter-related plans.

And the radio expert also successfully lost his job.

He is not the only one who is unemployed, there are many people. The advent of the end of the world has caused huge changes in the entire social and industrial structure.

Some professions that were once very popular have begun to become less important, such as...the lawyer profession.

Now the entire legal industry is quietly laying off staff. Many law firms have laid off many newcomers and interns, leaving only a small number of staff.

The automobile industry has also begun to shrink significantly. You must know that there are no roads for cars to run in the shelter, which also means that cars will completely disappear from people's sight.

Perhaps this is a happy thing for Mr. Wodrick. After all, Linwo Automobile was officially "acquired" by Penjiao. Now that the automobile industry is shrinking rapidly, he not only did not lose money, but also made a huge profit. .

The shipbuilding industry is basically finished. According to research on ancient geology, the entire planet will be frozen after the Ice Age!

Whether you have a small wooden boat for fishing or a large cruise ship, it has no actual value!
All walks of life are looking for ways to survive when the shelter era arrives.

Countless companies are on the verge of bankruptcy, but many emerging companies are quickly finding a way out.

The most popular product in the Federation recently is an "oxygen box", which belongs to a company called "Natural Technology" and is part of the Light of Tomorrow incubation plan, and is invested and held by the Light of Tomorrow.

This company sells their concepts and products by creating "oxygen anxiety". They first came up with many specious concepts, such as that oxygen will be distributed by tanks in the future.

Then they began to put their products on the shelves on a large scale, a thing that looked...a bit like a landscaping tank, but it was full of algae.

"...With only a tiny amount of nutrients, these algae can continuously provide you with the freshest oxygen 24 hours a day!"

"Our basic household equipment has a total of two oxygen tanks, and each oxygen tank can provide the necessary oxygen for two adults for a day."

“Even if you haven’t entered the shelter era yet, it can help you effectively improve the air environment in your home.”

"At the same time, its beautiful shape can also embellish your high-quality life and bring you closer to nature."

"At the same time, we also provide various upgraded models and customized models..."

The girl who was responsible for introducing the product was smiling from ear to ear. The first thing she did when she got up every morning was to look at the company's stock price and then calculate how much money she made.

Making money is really easy!
