Chapter 1656 40,000 workers, super large infrastructure!(2/2)
The hoarding plan started half a year before the apocalypse broke out, and continued until the sixth year of the apocalypse, never stopping.
At first, Li Yu used money to buy and hoard. Later, after the apocalypse broke out, he led his team to go shopping in the county and city for 0 yuan.
Later, after a hierarchical system was established, we began to use the power of the vast number of collaborators to continue hoarding.
Now, it has spread across three places, using hundreds of thousands of people to search for all kinds of available materials.
At the Dazhangshu headquarters base, the warehouses in the inner city have long been full, and many new warehouses have been built.
But there is still no room for it in the back, so we can only build new warehouses in the four outer cities.
In the past, the entire building in the Third Outer City that housed the zombie generator was now used specifically to store all kinds of sundries.
Many buildings were also built in the Fourth Outer City to store various supplies.
This is especially true for the Oil City. A special area has been set up in the trading market as a transportation and storage area to store massive amounts of materials.
In the conference room.
Li Tie looked at everyone and said: "This is the rough combat details."
"Um."
Li Yu nodded and looked at Xiao Jun and Lao Xie.
"Lao Xie, you and Xiao Jun have completed the handover work recently. After the handover work is completed, you will return to the headquarters base to take over Xiao Jun's position."
"Yes, City Lord." Lao Xie stood up and replied.
"When the time comes, you can return together with the helicopter group." Li Yu added.
"clear."
"City Lord." Suddenly Zuo Ruxue's voice came from the lower right.
"Huh?" Li Yu looked at her doubtfully.
Zuo Ruxue said seriously: "The food in the north has been loaded onto the truck. We will go to the Oil City tomorrow."
"Okay, I understand." Li Yu nodded lightly.
Later, Li Yu urged Xie Weishan and Li Haoran to set up the boiler heating system as soon as possible.
After the meeting.
Li Yu left Xiao Jun and Li Haoran alone.
"The matter here in the North is over. I will return to Oil City tomorrow, and I will leave the North to you."
"The clouds are accumulating, and the latest news from the Headquarters Natural Disaster Research Institute predicts that the possibility of an ice-covered natural disaster has reached 70%."
"So, your next task is to prepare for the cold as soon as possible. This is a tough battle that will last for a long time."
Xiao Jun nodded quickly and said: "Okay, I understand! City Lord, I will do my best to protect the northern border."
Li Yu pointed at Li Haoran and said to Xiao Jun:
"Li Haoran is still young, please take care of him more."
Xiao Jun shook his head and said: "He is already very mature. I'm afraid I have nothing to teach him."
"Anyway, if you have anything to discuss, we will leave the northern border to you." Li Yu waved his hand and said.
"I will definitely live up to your expectations!" Xiao Jun said seriously.
Li Haoran next to him looked at Li Yu firmly and said:
"City Lord, I will definitely learn more from Captain Xiao and guard the northern border."
"Yes!" Li Yu looked at the two of them and nodded.
"I believe you, go down."
"Yes." The two of them left together.
Li Yu got up from the super luxurious chair in the conference room, walked to the edge of the window, and looked at Nuo Da's northern base.
His eyes were blurry and he didn't know what he was thinking.
.........
The next day.
Li Yu left the northern border with Zuo Ruxue and others.
The difference is that Zuo Ruxue and the others drove on land, while Li Yu and the others drove a helicopter to the Oil City.
Three hours later.
Li Yu led four long-endurance helicopters to the Oil City.
Before landing, Li Yu saw that the eastern foundation of the buffer city wall had been completely constructed, and construction of above-ground buildings had now begun.
Laying the foundation takes the most time, but the above-ground part is faster.
But it was clearly visible that there were obviously many more people involved in the construction of the buffer city wall than when he last came to Oil City.
After getting off the plane, he curiously asked his third uncle.
"Uncle Third, the buffer city is being built very quickly. There must be a lot of people added. Will the manpower of the boiler heating system be affected?"
The third uncle smiled and shook his head:
"No, now the boiler construction side has recruited 6,000 people to build it very quickly. In addition, there are also people specially sent to search for relevant materials. The steel factory is also stepping up the production of steel pipes."
"In addition, another 10,000 construction workers were recruited for the construction of the buffer city wall, and a total of 20,000 people were involved in the construction of the buffer city wall."
"Including the workers who are still under construction at the construction site in the trading bazaar, the total number of construction workers in Oil City and the trading bazaar now reaches 40,000!"
"Forty thousand people!?" Li Yu gasped.
This is not just the construction personnel, there are also material search personnel and transportation personnel.
For such a large project, there is a huge demand for building materials.
Calculated in this way, the number of people working around the construction site is extremely large.
"Yes, so the consumption of points is very large now. Tens of thousands of points are issued every day. If all the points are converted into food, the daily consumption of food is tens of tons."
Li Yu clicked his tongue in surprise when he heard this.
"Food is productivity. No wonder the foundations for the eastern buffer city wall have been built just a few days after I left. If we continue at this rate, it is really possible to build the buffer city before the ice disaster."
The third uncle looked at the dark clouds in the sky and said with emotion:
"The Natural Disaster Research Institute has been unable to give a specific time. It can only depend on luck."
"Yeah." Li Yu looked at the thick cumulus clouds in the sky, feeling a little heavy in his heart.
"By the way, how many people are there in the trading market now, Uncle San?" Li Yu looked at Uncle San.
The third uncle thought for a while and replied: "The latest data is not available today. After the Wengcheng closed yesterday, the total number of people reached 158,000."
This number is more than Li Yu expected.
The third uncle continued:
"Maybe because of the backlog of clouds, more and more survivors are coming to us..."
"Is it possible that it's because of the construction recruitment drive?" Li Yu asked.
The third uncle raised his head and glanced at Li Yu, "There is also this reason."
"By the way, there are thousands of tons of food stored in Oil City now, and thousands more tons will be transported from the north. It is estimated that the food stockpiled in Oil City will reach 10,000 tons in two days. I think that's about it."
Li Yu frowned and said:
"Not enough. The population at the headquarters base is small and the food consumed is relatively small. Moreover, both the northern border and the headquarters base can continue to produce food, even during natural disasters."
"But Oil City can't support so many people here with only 20 acres of land."
"I think we can collect 15,000 tons of grain, which will ensure that the Oil City will not be short of food for at least 6 to 10 months."
The third uncle thought for a while and said:
"The headquarters base and the northern border currently produce 30,000 tons of grain per year. Now, transporting more than half of this year's grain output to the Oil City feels a bit much."
Li Yu looked at the trading market buffer city under construction in the distance.
"Not much. Now we have entered the fast lane of development. Our food reserves can support our construction. As long as we can build a buffer city and open up new planting land in the buffer city..."
"By then, Oil City will have made up for the last shortcoming."
"Okay." The third uncle stopped trying to persuade Li Yu.
Anyway, even if thousands of tons of food are stored in the headquarters base and the northern border, it will definitely last longer than the oil city.
Today, the population of the Da Zhangshu headquarters base plus the northern border is less than one-tenth of the population of the Oil City and Trading Market.
