The mortar in the mixer rolls back and forth, and the sand, gravel and cement are often fully mixed in the mixer, and then poured toward the placed formwork through the delivery pipe.
The formwork is filled with tied steel bars horizontally and vertically, and the viscous concrete is poured on the steel bars to fill the gaps.
Some collaborators use a mixer to vibrate the concrete to ensure that the concrete can fill all the gaps in the formwork.
Crunch!
After Le Ziqing and others entered the buffer city of Dazhangshu Base, they stopped in the right area.
In the current buffer city, all kinds of building materials are piled up like hills.
Crash--
They dumped the sand from the truck on the ground, and one truck after another drove in and dumped the sand out of the truck.
Every building material here is sorted and piled in different locations.
But even so, the construction site still looked a bit messy due to the vehicles laden with materials driving back and forth, causing some sand and gravel to shake out.
Less than a hundred meters away from here, there is a cement factory that was built not long ago.
In the cement factory warehouse, there are piles of cement more than ten meters high, layer upon layer, which looks very spectacular.
These cements have just been produced and need to be stored for a period of time.
The newly produced cement is hot and cannot be put into use immediately, otherwise it will affect the growth strength of the cement.
The temperature of freshly bagged cement will be relatively high after it is delivered. It will be hot to the touch and cannot be poured into concrete immediately.
Because the properties of various ingredients in hot cement have not been fully stabilized, the stability of the cement is unqualified. Only when the cement fully releases its heat can a stable effect be achieved.
But it cannot be left for too long. If the cement exceeds two months, its strength will decrease.
This point was emphasized by Fusheng in the base especially to the construction workers at the construction site.
After unloading the sand, Le Ziqing looked at the time and it was already four-thirty in the afternoon.
It was too late to make another transportation trip, so he said to Shi Jingsheng behind him:
"Jingsheng, you ask the brothers to drive the electric truck to a charging point to charge, and I'll go find someone."
Hearing this, Shi Jingsheng looked around, leaned over and asked in a low voice:
"Brother Le, are you looking for Lai Dongsheng, the inner-city employee, to give you feedback on Zhang Shunzi?"
"Well, this bastard is affecting our ability to earn points, so we must sue him." Le Ziqing looked gloomy.
"Hey, I'm waiting for your good news."
After receiving Le Ziqing's accurate reply, Shi Jingsheng had already thought of the picture of Zhang Shunzi being defeated.
Le Ziqing glanced at Shi Jingsheng and said angrily:
"Drive away quickly, there are other convoys coming from behind."
.....
Lai Dongsheng has a rather special status in the Da Zhangshu base. Although he is only a middle-aged man with low knowledge and culture, his relationship with Li Yu's family was very good before the end of the world.
After the apocalypse broke out, he stayed in the inner city without a fixed position. He went to help wherever he needed someone.
After the projects in the inner city were basically completed, he couldn't take any time off and took the initiative to apply to help in the buffer city.
He is responsible for vehicle entry and exit registration. Just after passing the weighbridge, Le Ziqing had already said hello to him.
But because there were other teams queuing up from behind at that time.
He was also in the car, anxious to transport the raw materials to the material storage area, so he did not get out of the car to report Zhang Shunzi's incident to Lai Dongsheng.
Back in the buffer city, less than fifty meters from the entrance, a pavilion was set up in this place. There were several tables in the pavilion, and four or five people were sitting there.
Opposite the pavilion, there is a weighbridge. Every transport truck entering the buffer city must pass by and weigh the materials on the truck.
Based on this weight, they calculate contribution points in proportion to the partners who go out to transport materials.
These collaborators will exchange these contribution points for food and other materials.
Le Ziqing walked to the weighing scale. At this time, there was no convoy entering, and Lai Dongsheng and Yu Lei were chatting.
He dusted himself off and walked straight towards the pavilion.
Yu Lei saw Le Ziqing walking under the pavilion and said with a smile:
"Hey! Lao Le, today's transportation mission is over. Your transportation volume was good today. Have you found a new sand quarry?"
Le Ziqing walked to the shaded ground of the pavilion, feeling much cooler without being exposed to the hot sun.
"I still took a risk and went to the Gongjiang River to mine river sand. Although it is convenient to mine, there are always some zombies suddenly running out of the river, making it difficult to work."
Hearing what he said, Yu Lei nodded slightly.
He could understand what Le Ziqing said, as he had done the same thing before.
Generally speaking, sand is collected from rivers, mountains and oceans.
There are many kinds of them, including river sand, mountain sand, sea sand or natural sand, which is a natural mineral resource.
In recent years, due to the extensive use of buildings and foundation projects in the Dazhangshu base, as well as the impact of heavy rains and floods, the mountain sand near the Dazhangshu base has become increasingly difficult to mine.
River sand is relatively easy to mine, but it has a very big disadvantage, that is, zombies like water. When mining river sand, you will always encounter some zombies running out of the water.
It's easy to get caught if you're not careful.
Lai Dongsheng, who was sitting in the center, nodded towards Le Ziqing, "Be careful, mutant zombies are much more likely to appear now than before."
"Well, thank you Brother Lai for reminding me."
"Brother Lai, there's something wrong with one of my electric trucks. Do you have time to take a look at it?"
Le Ziqing saw so many people here, including several non-staff members.
I thought of an excuse and took Lai Dongsheng aside to chat.
This kind of snitching must not be discussed in front of everyone.
If these non-staff personnel heard it, if one of them had a good relationship with Zhang Shunzi and the news reached Zhang Shunzi's ears, Zhang Shunzi would definitely cause trouble for him.
After all, he is a person from outside the city. Although he does not have direct jurisdiction over him, he can still find ways to put some shoes on his feet.
Therefore, it is best to tell Lai Dongsheng secretly about this matter in private.
Lai Dongsheng was surprised when he heard this and said: "If you have a problem, go to the maintenance factory in the outer city. They are professional. I know how to repair trucks. These electric vehicles are not the same as fuel vehicles. I can't fix them."
Lai Dongsheng has done many jobs before, including a period of time as a car mechanic.
But the technology is not particularly good.
Lai Dongsheng's answer was already within Le Ziqing's prediction, and he said quickly:
"You are so humble. I have seen your skills with my own eyes. When we were on the weighbridge the day before yesterday, you were the one who found the problem with the truck and fixed it in twos and twos."
"There is still a queue at the factory for maintenance. I have to go out to transport sand tomorrow. I can't wait that long. If you are tired, please help me take a look. It's not a big problem. It's just that there are always abnormal noises when driving."
"Please help me, there are no cars coming here anyway, not to mention Brother Yu and the others are here."
Lai Dongsheng is very popular in the base, which is related to his down-to-earth and helpful personality.
Hearing what Le Ziqing said, he felt that it was not unreasonable.
It only takes one trip, "Okay, don't blame me if it can't be repaired. If it can't be repaired, go find a repair shop."
"Thank you Brother Lai."
Lai Dongsheng explained to Yu Lei here, looked at the registration data on the form, wrote it down, and followed Le Ziqing.
Don't mess with this data. The points of those who cooperate are based on this data.
Although he has a good temper, he is also quite careful in his work.
It should be noted that he has always been more careful.
Yu Lei is an old man at the Da Zhangshu base. He had a broken leg before, otherwise he would have been promoted to an outer city employee long ago.
Let him watch from here, and there shouldn't be any problems.
After leaving the pavilion, Le Ziqing took Lai Dongsheng towards a ruined wall to the west.
The buffer city is very large, and many areas have not yet had time to be built.
Within the buffer city, there are still some residential buildings built before the end of the world, but some of these residential buildings have collapsed, leaving only ruins.
"Xiao Le, the electric truck charging place is not here. Why did you bring me here?"
They were next to a broken wall, about fifty meters away from the buffer city wall. There was a big tree growing next to the broken wall. Although the weeds on the ground had been cleared a few days ago, they have grown again in the past two days.
Some.
The cicadas are chirping and the air is stuffy, making people easily irritable.
Le Ziqing looked around and found that there was no one there, a miserable look appeared on his face.
"Brother Lai, I have something I need your help with."
"Help, where is your car? If you don't pull the truck out, how can I help you repair it?"
"The truck is not broken, I just want to see you for something else."
"You kid, just kid me, I'm busy..."
With that said, Lai Dongsheng walked back on the road.
No matter how good-tempered he is, he cannot accept others lying to him.
"Brother Lai, wait a minute. I have my own reasons. It was difficult to talk because there were so many people. This matter is of great importance and I think I must tell you." Le Ziqing grabbed Lai Dongsheng and begged.
"oh?"
When Lai Dongsheng heard what he said was of great importance, he stopped and slowly turned his head to look at him.
"What's going on? Has a new type of mutant zombie been discovered?"
He also heard about what happened in the cave a few days ago.
It was also discovered by Luo Shichang, the same collaborator as Le Ziqing.
"no."
Le Ziqing told Lai Dongsheng how Zhang Shunzi used his power to block the road in the language he had organized on the way here.
"Moreover, when we used points to exchange for food, Jia Tan also asked us for benefits, otherwise he would deduct our food."
"We have risked our lives to save the food little by little, but we really have no choice but to give them benefits and help them find what they want."
The more Le Ziqing talked, the angrier he became, "This is not just me. You can ask Master Luo and Zhang Bo. They all have the same suffering as me and can't tell anything."
"Many of our collaborators are a little dissatisfied now. I think there will be big problems sooner or later if this continues."
"So I ask you to report this matter to the city lord. The city lord is wise and he will not sit idly by and do nothing."
.....
Lai Dongsheng listened carefully to what he said, his face full of disbelief.
"There is such a thing, how brave they are!"
"I also remember that Jia Tan. He used to follow He Chao. How could He Chao be so confused? I know who he is, so he probably doesn't know."
Le Ziqing said quickly: "Yes, not only Jia Tan, but also Zhang Shunzi used to follow He Chao."
Lai Dongsheng thought for a while, and he knew that the city lord had always valued He Chao, otherwise he would not have left the outer city in his hands.
He Chao has always been loyal to the city lord.
Lai Dongsheng was actually a little conflicted. He was worried that He Chao knew about this and would condone Jia Tan and Zhang Shunzi.
If this is the case, He Chao will be miserable.
And the city lord will definitely be very disappointed and sad.
After all, he believed in He Chao so much, but He Chao...
But now when he heard what Le Ziqing said, he was extremely unhappy.
How dare you use your power for personal gain? How courageous!
He couldn't understand it at all.
As a worker from the outer city, I have all the benefits that I should have, and I don’t have to worry about food at all. Although the welfare benefits are a little worse than those for workers from the inner city, compared with non-staff workers and cooperative workers, it’s just a day’s work.
land.
With his eyes moving, Lai Dongsheng thought a lot at this moment.
If I tell the city lord, will the city lord handle the matter?
Probably so?
In the past two years, the city lord has seldom directly managed the specific affairs of the Zhangshu base.
Even in recent months, he has rarely been seen outside the city.
However, Lai Dongsheng joined Da Zhangshu when it was first established, and even watched Li Yu grow up.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! He knows Li Yu very well, and the city lord is a person who cannot tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes.
I'm afraid that if this matter is reported, it may cause a shock in the Da Zhangshu base.
From the top down, you may dislike sweeping.
Thinking about it carefully, he shuddered a little.
Although he is uneducated, he understands a truth.
When you find a cockroach in the sun, it means there are too many people in the dark place to squeeze in.
It is very possible that Zhang Shunzi is just one of them, and there are many people he does not know who are corrupt and harming the overall interests of the Da Zhangshu Base.
These people are like moths, constantly gnawing at the foundation of the big camphor tree base.
While thinking, Lai Dongsheng's eyes gradually became firm.
These borers must not be allowed to harm the interests of the large camphor tree base.
So he looked at the sad face beside him and said solemnly:
"Le Ziqing, I know about this matter. I will definitely report it to the city lord personally. Don't worry, according to my city lord's understanding, I will definitely make the decision for you!"
His eyes were firm. He had watched the Da Zhangshu base be built and he had strong feelings for it. He would not allow anyone to destroy it.
Seeing Lai Dongsheng's attitude, Le Ziqing immediately thanked him excitedly:
"Brother Lai, I know you have the most sense of justice. I would like to thank you on behalf of the brothers!"
"Okay, okay, don't give me rainbow farts. Don't worry, now that I know about this, I will definitely report it."
"Let's go, I can't leave the weighbridge station for too long."
Lai Dongsheng glanced at Le Ziqing behind him, and then walked towards the weighbridge station.
Le Ziqing followed behind, feeling a little excited.
His eyes were filled with expectation. He had long been unhappy with that Jia Tan, and today he met Zhang Shunzi, who was also a fucking thing.
Damn it, I hope the city lord can check it out.
But he was afraid that even the city lord would protect these people and not impose any punishment.
If this were the case, it would be very hurtful to all the cooperating staff.
Everything we once said about fairness and justice will become a joke.
.....
The sun sets deep, and the sunset returns to the mountains and forests.
Cooperating personnel who were performing mining and transportation tasks nearby have returned to the buffer city.
Other cooperators who went to perform tasks a little further away could not return to the Da Zhangshu base that day, so they stayed temporarily in five satellite cities.
With the Da Zhangshu base factory operating at full capacity these days, the ultraviolet lamps produced are being distributed every day.
Moreover, there are more and more skilled workers producing UV lamps, and the daily production volume has reached nearly eight times compared to the beginning.
After these ultraviolet lamps are distributed, there will be enough for partners to take them out for use in satellite cities.
However, due to the large area of the buffer city, the entire fence has not yet been covered.
Cooperating staff and non-staff personnel have all been withdrawn from the inner and outer cities, and they now basically live in the buffer city.
They gathered in one place and used ultraviolet lights to form a protective circle around them. They didn't have to worry about the appearance of wall-climbing zombies at night.
As for other ordinary zombies, there is no way to enter the buffer city without rain, and they are all blocked by the walls of the buffer city.
at dusk.
After Wang Cheng returned to the inner city, he found Ding Jiu in the cafeteria and told Ding Jiu roughly what he saw during the road construction today.
Ding Jiu didn't think too much, after all, Zhang Shunzi just made a few remarks, which was harmless.
"Ding Gong, not only did Zhang Shunzi complain, I also heard that Yan Chan also complained..."
"Yan Chan? Which one is it?" Ding Jiu felt a little strange when he heard this name.
After all, there are so many people in the base, and there are now two thousand people in the inner and outer cities.
He doesn't remember everyone's names.
"As for the person from the outer city who was responsible for transporting ultraviolet lamps to the five satellite cities recently, he used to follow He Chao." Wang Cheng replied.
"He Chao?" Ding Jiu glanced at Wang Cheng after hearing the name.
"Do you suspect that He Chao has treasonous intentions?"
"You said there might be something wrong with him. I absolutely don't believe it. He has no motive at all. What's more, his daughter is in the inner city. How dare he act randomly?!"
Wang Cheng quickly shook his head and said, "No."
"Ding Gong, I didn't say there was something wrong with Director He. I just felt something was abnormal. Recently, Zhang Shunzi and Yan Chan both complained to me about the base..."
"I was wondering if I should remind the president and check it out?"
Ding Jiu looked around. The two of them were sitting in the corner of the cafeteria, and the nearest person to them was seven or eight meters away.
"Come on, you are thinking too much, don't mention this matter again." Ding Jiu lowered his voice and said.
"Oh, okay." Wang Cheng saw that Ding Gong didn't seem to care much and said no more.
Ding Jiu ate his meal and fell into deep thought.
Is this an accident, or is there something going on?
