Apocalyptic natural disaster, stock up with billions of supplies to survive
Chapter 445 There are people living around
I just hoped that the people at the base would come to them and complain about their poverty despite the threat of the wind blade.
I want to borrow some food and water from Peng Lai Base.
The top management of Penglai Base held a meeting about this, and everyone unanimously decided not to borrow it.
Because the remaining food in Penglai base is only enough for the entire base to last for up to two years.
Unless the food on the farm can be harvested smoothly every time in the past two years, the entire base may collapse due to lack of food.
This was also the main reason why Professor Li asked Han Ying and Lu Yuan for help when he learned that they had mutated seafood mushrooms that could make plants grow quickly.
With the mutated seafood mushrooms growing, food can still be grown, but where should the water source be found?
At this time, Ke Zin and Gu Yuanping were worried about this problem.
Gu Yuanping wanted to ask God loudly, why isn't it snowing when it's so cold?
"We can only ask the well digging team to dig a few more wells."
Ke Zin sighed helplessly. The well-digging team had actually been digging wells every day since they arrived in Jiangcheng, and they never stopped.
But most of the dug wells have been dug to more than 300 meters and there is still no water coming out.
Due to the recent drop in temperature, it has become increasingly difficult to dig wells, not to mention the presence of wind blades that are always threatening life.
In addition to the well-digging team, an excavation team for digging tunnels has been formed in the past two days.
The main task of the excavation team is to dig a tunnel directly leading to the farm from the main area of Penglai base.
Because of the extreme cold and the wind blade, other work can be temporarily suspended.
But there is absolutely no way to stop the work on the farm.
The farm requires a lot of manpower, and the official side is unable to provide so many wind blade protection armors, so they can only dig a direct road through the ground.
"That's all we can do, but if it freezes..."
The water in the well one to two hundred meters away has not yet frozen, but if the temperature continues to drop, no one can guarantee that the water in the well will not freeze.
Even if the well water has not frozen yet, it is still very troublesome every time to fetch water.
Because the temperature is too low, the water freezes in the pipe halfway through pumping.
Wells that produce a lot of water use electric tapes wrapped around water pipes to pump water up. But now that there is no solar energy, most of the electricity can only be generated by gasoline and diesel, and a small part uses wind energy to generate electricity.
Therefore, the power generated is very limited, and all the power must be used on the blade.
Therefore, those wells that produce little water can only be dug up bucket by bucket by manpower.
Use the most primitive method, hanging a well.
Use a rope to bring buckets of water up from the bottom of the well. Halfway up, the entire bucket of water has frozen into ice cubes. When you come up, the whole bucket of ice is poured out.
...
The weather was very cold. Apart from going out to do business, Han Ying and Lu Yuan spent the whole day at home tinkering with the space and crops upstairs.
The corns and potatoes on the 4th and 5th floors have grown vigorously under the water of the mutated seafood mushroom water.
There are also a lot of empty spaces on the third floor, where Han Ying and Lu Yuan temporarily planted new tomatoes.
The growth rate of tomatoes is not slow, and a small flower bud has already been seen in only about a week.
However, the note given by Professor Li previously stated that the first bud of the new tomato must be removed, otherwise the subsequent yield will be affected.
Every few days, Qin Qinghai would take a few photos of potatoes and corn to show Han Ying and Lu Yuan.
The growth looks pretty good, but not as good as Han Ying and the others.
Although the three families live in the same building, due to the weather, they rarely go out except to move downstairs to carry firewood.
Apart from reporting each other's safety once a day in the small group, there is basically no contact.
Every family lives their own little life behind closed doors.
The day Han Ying and Lu Yuan returned from trading meteorites with Dao Scarwei, they received a call from Professor Li.
Professor Li was very excited during the phone call and told Han Ying and Lu Yuan that the mutated seafood mushrooms taken away from them had grown into seven mutated seafood mushrooms.
He planned to transplant the seven newly grown mutated seafood mushrooms to allow them to breed more seafood mushrooms.
Han Ying and Lu Yuan were stunned when they heard Professor Li's words.
What's the situation?
Only 7 roots grew after a week?
Only one hair grows in one day?
Why is this so different from the two of them?
A week has passed, and the mutant seafood mushrooms they planted in the space have multiplied into a sea of mutant seafood mushrooms.
Why did Professor Li's side only grow 7?
The two looked at each other, neither of them knew this question!
But the two of them were not stupid enough to tell Professor Li that they had bred a sea of mutated seafood mushrooms.
But thinking about it, neither of them seemed to have considered this before, because those mutated seafood mushrooms were planted in the space.
Is it because of the space?
If planted outside, the reproduction rate is not that fast?
The two planned to give it a try.
So Lu Yuan separated two mutated seafood mushrooms, planted them in the soil, and placed them in the living room on the third floor.
A few days later, the two discovered that, as Professor Li said, only one mutated seafood mushroom was reproduced on average per day.
This is simply incomparable to being able to reproduce in space in one night.
Han Ying picks several baskets of mutated seafood mushrooms in the fields every day. Besides watering those crops, there is still a lot left over.
The rest were put into a separate space talisman by her.
Han Ying planned to use this space talisman to store mutated seafood mushrooms or their juice.
On this day, Han Ying had just replaced two sets of radiators and added some firewood to the fire pit. She heard a lot of noises outside the window, and even the sound of vehicles.
They had noticed before that no one else lived within 50 meters of this building, only the three of them.
But listening to the noise outside, there seemed to be quite a few people.
The two looked at each other, put on a thermostatic hat and a scarf, and then opened the window halfway.
Then the two of them saw a lot of people gathered around a three-story house about ten meters away from their building.
Those people had just gotten off the car, all with large and small bags, and it seemed they were going to check in there.
After coming down, they all ran into the house as fast as possible to avoid being cut by the wind blade that would blow over at any time.
The temperature is too low and many people huddle together for warmth, so there are usually ten or twenty people living in one room.
So many people take turns burning firewood, which saves firewood and makes them warmer.
Therefore, after the extreme cold, most people prefer to live in large dormitories close to military areas.
It's closer to shopping malls and military areas, and it's safer and more convenient.
Therefore, many people in the three villages that are far away from the military area are not very willing to come.
After all, it would be troublesome to buy something or go to work on the farm.
