"How many people do you want to recruit this time?" asked Lao Huang.
“Let’s send another 20,000 people. This time, in addition to the loan personnel, I hope to recruit people who have experience in building greenhouses before.
Those loan officers probably have no construction experience, so just ask them to come and clear the snow.”
“So many people!”
Old Huang took a breath of cold air. He had already recruited 20,000 people in the last wave.
Now it costs another 20,000.
Counting the personnel and forming the team are both very troublesome tasks.
"Okay, give me a day and I'll get you all the people."
"By the way, how much snow has been cleared in Buffer City?"
When asked about this, Xie Changshan sighed and said, "Less than 2,000 acres."
"Ah, it's been almost a week, and not even one-tenth of it has been cleaned up?" Old Huang was a little surprised.
The trading market covers an area of several thousand acres, which is larger than the buffer city that has been cleared out now.
And there weren’t so many people to clear the snow at that time, and it only took a week to clean it up.
“Oh, I see.”
Old Huang calculated in his mind that clearing the snow in the buffer city has been going on for 6 days now. Even if 2,000 acres have been cleared, that would be 20 times the area of the buffer city of 40,000 acres.
That means it will take 120 days or 4 months to clear the snow in the buffer city.
"Chief Engineer Xie, this won't work. I suggest you report this to the minister and think of a solution. Otherwise, time will be wasted if you continue like this."
"Yeah." Xie Changshan put down the walkie-talkie.
After looking at the construction site and thinking for a while, he hailed a car and asked Ding Wu to take him back to the oil city.
Ten minutes later.
Xie Changshan got out of the car and ran to the minister's office.
But he was disappointed; the minister was not in the office.
So he ran to the meeting room next door, found Xiaomi who was cleaning inside, and learned that the minister had now gone to the administrative building of the trading market.
He hurried into the car and asked Ding Wu to take him to the administrative building of the trading market.
A few minutes later.
He found his third uncle in the administrative building.
"minister."
"Huh? What's the matter?" Uncle San, who had just finished a meeting with the patrol team, looked at Jie Changshan curiously.
Xie Changshan reported to his uncle the progress of clearing snow in the buffer city.
When Uncle San learned that the progress was so slow, his brows immediately twisted into a "川" shape.
The temperature has now risen to minus 40 degrees Celsius.
If things continue at this pace, we might as well not even bother clearing the snow and just wait for three months for it to melt.
But by doing this, these three months will be wasted.
If the snow can be cleared and the greenhouse built earlier, crops can be planted and production can begin earlier.
"You mean in the past six days, less than 2,000 acres have been cleared? Why is it so slow?"
"Because the ice at the bottom of the snow is too hard, it can't be dug out by a snowplow or a bulldozer, so it can only be dug out by a drill."
"Is there any other way? Try to be quick." asked Uncle San.
Xie Changshan said helplessly: "I have also thought about melting it with hot air, but after melting, it will quickly condense into ice again at the current temperature, and the speed is also slow."
"unless."
"Unless what?" asked Uncle San.
"I just thought of a way on the way here, but this method will consume a lot of explosives."
After he said this, Uncle San understood.
"You mean, use explosives to break the ice?"
"right."
"Snow above four meters is easy to clear quickly, but below four meters it is all ice, which is very hard. Using explosives, you can quickly break the ice into pieces."
"The reason why the speed is so slow at the moment is because of the problem of how to break up the ice. There are no other problems with transportation."
After all, it involved explosives, so Uncle San did not agree immediately.
The Oil City does have this stuff, but the stock is small.
Moreover, these explosives are of relatively high quality and are specially used for mountain blasting and the like.
There are plenty of grenades and artillery shells, but using them to blast the ice is too extravagant.
"Well, the temperature has risen a lot now, and the helicopter can fly to the headquarters base. I'll ask the headquarters to send some explosives over."
"Okay!" Xie Changshan became much more energetic after hearing this.
"With the explosives, how long will it take you to clear the ice and snow in the buffer city?" asked Uncle San.
Xie Changshan said confidently:
"At most half a month. In addition, I will focus on cleaning up the greenhouse construction site in the buffer city first. After the cleaning, we can directly build the greenhouse."
Tens of thousands of acres of ice and snow were cleared in just half a month.
Xie Changshan is not bragging, but he knows very well what the main difficulties of ice and snow accumulation are.
Now the transportation of snow is not a problem at all. With two thousand vehicles entering and leaving every day, there are at least 20,000 transportation trips. Even if each vehicle carries 10 tons of snow, 200,000 tons of snow can be transported every day.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
In terms of capacity, there is absolutely no problem.
"Will that destroy the greenhouse that has already been built?" asked Uncle San.
"It's okay. The greenhouses we dug out today were all deformed by the ice, so we have to rebuild them. Even if we don't blow them up, we still have to rebuild them."
"Okay, wait for my news." Uncle San turned and left, heading for the Oil City Communications Office.
Headquarters of Dazhangshu Base.
After Second Uncle learned about the current situation facing Oil City from Third Uncle, he chatted with Li Yu and got Li Yu's consent.
The second uncle did not immediately look for Zhou Ran at the military factory, but contacted his uncle at the armament department first.
The eldest uncle asked his second uncle to directly contact Zhang Qinchao who was in charge of the ammunition depot.
He was too slow in delivering messages in the middle, so he just let them connect directly.
In my uncle's opinion, the production of explosives was too slow, so it would be better to take them directly from the ammunition depot.
Anyway, there are a lot of explosives stockpiled at the headquarters of the Dazhangshu base.
A lot of explosives were used when the mine was being mined. Later, the military factory increased the production of explosives, leaving a lot of stock.
"5 tons of explosives? So much?" Zhang Qinchao was a little surprised after hearing the news from his second uncle.
With so much explosives, if they exploded in a concentrated manner, they would be enough to form a pit with a radius of two hundred meters.
"The Oil City needs it, Xiaoyu knows about this." The second uncle added.
Although my second uncle is the chairman of the management committee of the Dazhangshu Base, he is more responsible for the internal affairs.
The military part is managed by my third uncle.
If Uncle San is at the headquarters base, he can directly use the explosives at the headquarters base.
But since my third uncle was not around, my second uncle had to handle the matter.
The person in charge of the ammunition depot was Li Yu's uncle Zhang Qinchao.
In the Dazhangshu system, some key positions are basically occupied by Li Yu’s relatives.
After all, they are related by blood and share common interests, so the probability of rebellion is relatively low.
Some sinecures do not require much ability, only loyalty and obedience.
After Zhang Qinchao learned that Xiaoyu knew about this, he didn't think much about it.
"Five tons, yes, when do you want it?"
"Let's prepare it this afternoon, and I'll ask Lao Bi to arrange a helicopter to send it over tomorrow." The second uncle replied.
"Okay, no problem. I'll prepare the explosives first and send someone to deliver them to the Second Outer City early tomorrow morning. Someone will find someone to contact me then."
"OK."
Afterwards, Zhang Qinchao took several people from the inner city and entered the underground base inside the inner city mountain and carried out 5 tons of explosives.
These five tons of explosives are all black powder, which has only half the power of TNT.
After counting the explosives, they did not move them out of the warehouse immediately, but left them there first.
We contacted the personnel on duty at the inner city wall tomorrow and asked them to help escort the convoy when they retrieve the explosives and to escort the vehicles loaded with explosives to the second outer city.
Although the distance from the inner city to the second outer city is not far, it takes less than ten minutes to drive there including security check.
But after all, it involves explosives, and so many of them, so we must be cautious.
