Through the helicopter window, the second uncle overlooked the entire oil city below, as well as the construction sites for the surrounding trading bazaar.
The second uncle saw Yu Wei controlling the helicopter as if it was about to land, so he quickly said:
"Yu Wei, don't land yet, just go around in the sky and let me take a good look at this trading market."
When Yu Wei heard this, he quickly raised the helicopter up again and circled around the oil city and trading market.
on the ground.
Ju Tianrui and Dongtai looked at the helicopter in the sky, which was clearly about to land, but suddenly lifted up. They looked at each other with some doubts in their eyes.
"Is something wrong?"
Ju Tianrui shook his head and guessed: "Maybe the president wants to see it again."
Outside the Oil City, the construction site of the trading market.
At this time, the foundation of the trading market wall has been built, and now the construction of the above-ground part has begun.
The construction workers on the ground were not surprised to see helicopters in the sky.
Helicopters fly out of the Oil City almost every day. Yesterday, three helicopters flew out, and I don’t know where they went.
They just glanced at it and focused on the matter at hand.
From a high-altitude bird's-eye view, you can see the entire oil city and trading market.
Oil City is located in the center of the trading bazaar, and the outer circle is the trading bazaar.
The entire trading market is huge.
"Dad, how big is this trading market? Why does it look bigger than our headquarters base!" In the helicopter, Li Haoran exclaimed as he looked at the large trading market.
Li Hongqian quietly looked at the situation on the ground and replied:
"Including Oil City, it is about 2,500 acres. It is indeed larger than the inner and outer cities combined. However, after the third layer of the headquarters base wall is built, it will be much larger than here."
"But why are there so many people here?"
Li Haoran didn't quite understand and continued to ask:
"I remember that only a few hundred people from the base were sent here. Why do I think there are no less than 2,000 people on this construction site?"
Li Hongqian glanced at him and rolled up the trading market in his hand.
"There are not only collaborators here, but also people supported by Southern Paradise and people from affiliated forces in the north."
"oh."
Li Haoran and Li Haoxian had some shock on their faces. They thought that Oil City was just a small settlement, but they didn't expect that it had developed into this.
There were actually so many people here, which was completely different from what they had originally expected.
The second uncle felt that his observation was almost done.
So Yu Wei was asked to land the helicopter.
Buzz buzz——
The helicopter lands.
Not far from the helipad, Ju Tianrui and Dongtai saw the helicopter finally landing.
They both breathed a sigh of relief.
The second uncle walked out of the helicopter, raised his head and saw Ju Tianrui walking towards him.
"President, long time no see!" Ju Tianrui looked a little excited.
The second uncle said with a cheerful smile:
"Yes, it's been half a year, right?"
Ju Tianrui smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, it's almost eight months."
The second uncle wanted to say that he would transfer you back when the trading market was built, but he felt unsure.
I drew too many cakes on the intercom before, and now I feel a little embarrassed to draw them again.
So he coughed dryly, looked around and said:
"Take me around, I haven't been to Oil City yet."
"Okay, President, come with me."
With that said, Ju Tianrui stretched out his right hand in a gesture of invitation.
After seeing the second uncle, some of the surrounding combatants shouted: "President."
The second uncle looked familiar to these people. After all, they had all stayed in the headquarters base for a long time.
During the time at the headquarters base, they combatants could see Uncle Er almost every day.
The second uncle smiled and waved hello.
After walking out of the crowd, Li Haoran, Li Haoxian, Liu Jinglue, and Li Zhengping followed behind their second uncle, looking around curiously.
Dongtai accompanied Li Haoran and the others, while Ju Tianrui accompanied his second uncle.
"President, let me take you to see where the oil wells are mined first," Ju Tianrui asked.
"good."
The second uncle looked around. It was obvious that this place was a pre-apocalyptic oil well mining factory.
Most of the buildings you see are factory buildings left over from the past.
The entire oil city has three horizontal lines and three vertical lines.
The main road in the middle is the widest.
Ju Tianrui and the others walked on this main road.
The main road is a cement road, which can't be said to be particularly clean, but it's not dirty either.
Ju Tianrui introduced while walking:
"President, that area is specifically for people from the northern affiliated forces to live. Currently, in order to ensure the safety of Oil City, it is surrounded by barbed wire."
"By the way, this is the canteen. Now the combatants in the city basically eat here."
"In addition, when Zhong Chuchu and the others went south, some of them stayed behind. The current person in charge of the oil well area that I will take you to see later is one of the people who stayed, called Masailong."
"He was the one who worked in this oil well before..."
The second uncle kept nodding.
Carefully observe the situation in this oil city.
Compared to the Da Zhangshu base, this place obviously has a bit more of a rough ore smell, and the air is filled with a strong smell of petroleum.
The sound of construction at the construction site keeps ringing in my ears, clang clang clang clang!
There is also a lot of dust.
The surrounding buildings are relatively simple.
The occasional forklifts and construction site vehicles passing by add a heavy metal industrial style to the city.
soon.
They came to the oil well area southwest of Oil City.
Marcelo Long, Niu Gao and others, who had been waiting here for a long time, stood at the entrance of the oil well area to greet them.
"Worker Ma, I heard that a big shot is coming to the headquarters base. What's his background?" asked an oil worker next to Masaron.
Marcello straightened his white construction hat.
He whispered: "I heard that he is the chairman of the headquarters base management committee. He is mainly responsible for the internal affairs of the entire Da Zhangshu base. Captain Ju must listen to him."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The oil extraction worker asked doubtfully:
"Does Minister Li have more power, or does the chairman have more power?"
"Forehead..."
Hearing this question, Marseille was stumped.
He didn't particularly understand the hierarchy at the headquarters base.
But he knew that the biggest leader of Da Zhangshu was Lord Li Yu. As for the president and Minister Li, they should also belong to the top few.
So he told the person next to him:
"Anyway, they are all big leaders. They will have some discernment later. Don't lose your position to me."
"Remember this president's surname is Li, please cheer me up later."
Niu Gao asked doubtfully:
"The city owner's surname is Li, Minister Li is also surnamed Li, and the president is also surnamed Li. Are they from the same family?"
After hearing this, Marcello scolded: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a group of people walking over not far away.
This group of people was surrounded by a middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to Minister Li.
But he looks a little older.
In addition, even Ju Tianrui, who was in charge of all affairs in the oil city, only stood beside him.
The priority can be seen at a glance.
"When people arrive, don't speak." Marcelloin whispered to everyone.
....
Ju Tianrui accompanied his second uncle to the oil production area.
The oil production area is blocked by barbed wire fences, and there are two guards with firearms at the door watching over the area.
There were dozens of people standing outside the door, and the one at the front was Marcello.
"President, you see this is the oil production area. Let me introduce to you the person in charge of the oil production area——"
"Marsaline, he used to be an engineer for oil production here."
"Old Ma, don't come here yet."
Ju Tianrui winked at Marseille.
Marseille hurriedly stepped forward, smiled, held his second uncle's hand with both hands, and said, "Welcome the president to come and inspect."
The second uncle smiled and shook hands with him.
"Horse Worker, I've heard of you a long time ago. The city lord said you did a good job here."
Excitement appeared on Marcello's face and he said with emotion:
"President, I have heard your voice on the radio before, and I finally saw it today. Thank you to the president for his recognition and promotion of us to non-staff."
"Hahaha."
The second uncle pointed at him and said:
"You are wrong about this. Promotion is not up to me. It is all based on a points system. The greater your contribution, the more you can be promoted."
"So, your promotion is achieved through your own efforts."
Marcello didn't know how to answer for a while, so he had to lower his head and say yes.
Seeing this situation, Ju Tianrui quickly added something.
"Lao Ma, take the president inside to see the oil well."
"okay."
Lao Ma quickly took a few hard hats from the oil workers next to him and handed them to his second uncle.
"Wear your safety helmet and pay attention to safety inside the oil production site."
The second uncle did not refuse and put on his hat honestly.
Crossing an asphalt path, there are blue covered factory buildings on both sides.
There are oil pipelines on both sides.
Soon we arrived at a factory.
Inside, there is a huge oil refining equipment, with more than a dozen workers operating it.
The oil enters the smelting equipment from the pipeline, and then is operated by workers to successfully separate the oil into gasoline, diesel and engine oil....
Not far from the equipment, there are several huge containers, which are used to store processed gasoline.
The mechanical sound is relatively loud in this room.
The second uncle asked inside:
“How much oil can we produce per day now?”
The mechanical sound vibrated, but Marseille didn't hear it, so he hurried to his second uncle's side.
The second uncle simply waved his hand and asked them to walk out of the oil smelting plant.
Anyway, he can see almost everything inside. He can't understand the main technical aspects, but he may be able to see how people are working.
"President, what did you just say? It was a bit noisy in there, I didn't hear clearly." After coming out, Marcelon quickly walked to his second uncle and said with some guilt.
The second uncle did not put on airs and lost his temper, and asked again:
"How much oil production can we achieve every day now? How high is the oil production rate?"
Marseille heard it clearly now.
He said with some confidence: "Now the daily output can reach forty tons."
"1 ton of crude oil is refined into 0.177 tons of gasoline and 0.383 tons of diesel. The refined oil rate is 60.8%."
This refining efficiency is almost the same as Sinopec’s refining rate before the end of the world.
Forty tons?
The second uncle remembered that the last time he learned about the oil production, it was still 30 tons.
Unexpectedly, there was an improvement.
So he asked: "The last time I heard your report, it seemed that it was still 30 tons. How did it increase?"
Marcelo explained with a smile:
"The oil well was overhauled once before, and then we recently dug out a new oil wellhead. It is still in the verification period, and the oil production can increase in the future."
The second uncle heard this and said with satisfaction:
"Not bad, very good."
Later, Marseille took his second uncle and Ju Tianrui to the oil wellhead.
Looking at the dark oil wellhead, workers were covered in black oil stains, even their faces were stained, and they were repairing equipment there with wrenches in their hands.
Although they were dirty, it could be seen that they were still full of energy and did not appear to be sallow or thin.
this point is very important.
If Ju Tianrui deducts food, he will definitely need to be investigated again!
From this point of view, this group of people should have no problem with food rationing.
The second uncle nodded silently.
The production can be maintained thanks to these workers.
These oil workers have been here since the apocalypse first broke out and have been here for more than four years.
Midway, the motorcycle gangs robbed this oil city and used these workers as their slaves.
If Li Yu and the others hadn't rescued them, they would probably have lived a life worse than that of an ox or a horse.
They should be the most loyal people to Oil City.
Later, the Da Zhangshu Base occupied this place, and they followed the Da Zhangshu Base.
After visiting.
The second uncle asked Marseille:
"How do you arrange food rationing?"
Marcelloin replied with a smile:
"Meals are included every day, and points are calculated every day. In terms of diet, it is a level lower than that of combatants, but they also have three meals a day."
"There can be one canned fruit every week."
The second uncle nodded, this standard was almost the same as what they had originally set.
So he said: "Well, yes, Da Zhangshu needs you people. Da Zhangshu will not forget your contribution, so do your best!"
Marcello raised his face, his eyes extremely satisfied.
"President, we are actually very satisfied."
"When I worked at the oil production plant here, although food and accommodation were provided, I still had to think about paying off the mortgage, car loan, and all kinds of worries."
"Now that the apocalypse is over, we can still have food and accommodation, but we don't have those troubles anymore. We are quite satisfied."
"We owe all of this to Da Zhangshu, and all our workers will remember it in our hearts."
The second uncle's face was filled with a smile and he kept nodding his head:
"good!"
Regardless of whether what Marcelloin said is true or false, the output is true, and people cannot be deceived about their state after eating or not.
After staying in the oil production area for an hour, Ju Tianrui left the place with his second uncle and went to the warehouse.
Seeing his second uncle and the others leaving, Marseille felt much more at ease.
"Worker Ma, President Li seems to be quite easy to talk to." A worker next to him said.
Marseille nodded in agreement.
"Well, we're lucky."
"Living in the apocalypse, we still live a life that is not much different from before the apocalypse."
"very nice."
Then, he glanced at the many workers around him.
He clapped his hands and shouted: "Stop looking, stop looking, go to work quickly."
"At the No. 2 oil well, the equipment must be adjusted today to prevent oil leakage from happening again like last time."
....
The second uncle who left the oil production area came to the bunker warehouse accompanied by Ju Tianrui.
Twice before, Li Yu asked Ju Tianrui to increase the construction of the Oil City bunker.
At the back, nearly ten acres of bunkers have been built in Oil City.
The warehouse is in this bunker.
Squeak——
The iron plate outside the warehouse was pushed away.
"President, this is the warehouse of our Oil City. It is mainly used to store food."
