Dongfeng left the trading market with his convoy, and at the same time he brought some daily necessities and food.
The madman is stationed in South Paradise and needs supplies.
The equipment and equipment in the Nanfang Paradise Chemical Plant, as well as some raw materials for the greenhouses, have not yet been transported.
In addition to the things on the destroyer, Dongfeng and the others would have to carry things back and forth many times.
The construction of the water plant also officially started today.
The entire oil city is in operation. Xie Changshan serves as the chief engineer of the water plant construction and can call on all manpower in the base except the combat department.
Time is tight, and so far, 2,000 trench diggers have been recruited.
Three designers and 200 water plant construction personnel.
As well as the relevant personnel needed for the construction of the water plant.
There are 2,500 people in total.
Just last night, Third Uncle, Xie Changshan, Fang Jingxin and three designers finally finalized the rough construction plan of the water supply plant with Third Uncle. The specific plant construction, diversion canal, settling tank, etc. have not yet been determined.
Because the time is too tight, only one month,
They can only build and plan at the same time.
Otherwise, according to the process of building a water plant before the end of the world, the project must be established first, and then tenders are invited. Each contractor will design drawings, cost estimates, and bids.
Calibrate and then start.
This process alone may take several months.
They don't have so much time to waste in these places, and they don't have to go through such cumbersome procedures.
The target plan has been roughly determined, and all the people have been recruited. The required materials can be temporarily used in the warehouse while searching for related equipment and materials.
Design, build, and search for materials at the same time, all at the same time.
Only in this way can it be completed within a month.
Xie Changshan came to the North District Office Building,
3rd floor.
The water plant built a temporary office, and there were three designers inside who were still drawing the water plant drawings.
These three people were excavated by Jie Changshan a long time ago, and they were all survivors in the trading bazaar.
They specialize in drawing drawings of various buildings in the Oil City, such as a street in the commercial district, an ancient cemetery and fort plantation, a wood product processing plant, a chemical plant, a cement factory... They are all drawings drawn by them.
Buildings such as self-built houses in rural areas, or migrant worker sheds, or farmhouses do not require drawings.
Because the structure is simple, construction workers can probably have a good idea of it.
However, some complex buildings, such as this kind of water plant, will inevitably require drawings. Without drawing planning, many details cannot be taken into consideration, and it is easy for mistakes to occur during construction.
The designed drawings can provide detailed plans for construction workers so that construction can be completed faster.
"How's it going? Haven't the drawings come out yet?" Xie Changshan pushed open the door and entered, his tone full of urgency.
Without the drawings, the work on the trading market may be delayed, resulting in an extension of the construction period.
The trench outside can be dug first, but it is best to have drawings for the project inside the trading market.
Wang Peng sat in front of the computer with dull eyes, a haggard face, and messy hair.
After hearing Jie Changshan's voice, he turned his head and sighed:
"General Engineer Xie, time is too tight, we all stayed up all night..."
Xie Changshan was not in the mood to listen to his complaints, "Can you come out at noon today?"
"Not at noon, the time given is too short." Wang Peng said with a wry smile.
Jie Changshan's tone was serious and he said in a commanding tone:
"No later than 12 o'clock tonight, I want to see the drawings you designed at 12 o'clock tonight."
"There are still 16 hours left, you must get it done for me within this time."
"At twelve o'clock in the evening, I will come over and review the drawing adjustments with you. Be sure to finalize the design drawings before tomorrow morning!"
"With the drawings in hand, construction in the trading market can begin tomorrow."
After Wang Peng heard this, his heart was trembling.
After staying up all night for two nights, Xie Changshan's words meant that he couldn't sleep again tonight.
The three of them barely left the office these past two days except for going to the bathroom.
In the past two days, when they couldn't bear it anymore, they would lie on the table and squint for more than ten minutes, and then continued designing after waking up.
Wang Peng looked at the two designers, Ma Hong and Sun Kang, nodded with difficulty and said:
"Okay, we'll try our best."
"It's not about trying your best, it's about having to do it!" Xie Changshan said, staring at them.
Two days have passed in one month, and there are still 28 days left.
Every day I have to squeeze in time to catch up on work.
As the chief engineer of the water plant, he not only has to focus on the drawings and designs, but also oversees personnel recruitment, trench excavation locations, and even water intake sites, etc.
"Okay!" Wang Peng nodded.
"But......"
"But what?" Jie Changshan pulled up a stool and sat down.
He is very anxious now. He will have to go outside the trading market later and stare at the trench excavation. It will probably be evening when he comes back.
If there is a problem with the drawing, it will be very troublesome.
Wang Peng's questions must be answered clearly before he can leave with peace of mind.
Wang Peng pointed to the construction design drawing in the computer and asked:
"Why aren't water plants built near water sources? Generally speaking, water plants are built near water sources. This can save space for trading markets, and it is more convenient to store water when building water plants in areas with sufficient water sources.
"
When Jie Changshan heard this question, he raised his eyebrows.
"It's very simple. The water source is ten kilometers away from the trading market, in Nanwan Lake. If we build the water plant there, we will not only build the water plant, but also build a defensive wall to prevent zombies from approaching Nanwan Lake.
, otherwise even if the treated water source is contaminated again, it will be meaningless to build a water plant!"
"Nam Van Lake is so large that the amount of work required to build a defensive wall is too large!"
"So, we must build the water plant in the trading market. After the water from Nanwan Lake is brought to the trading market, it will be processed centrally. The treated water can be used directly!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Wang Peng suddenly realized that according to Xie Changshan’s meaning, it is actually to ensure that the treated water source will not be polluted again.
Just imagine, zombies love water. Nanwan Lake covers an area of 75 square kilometers, which is larger than the 10 West Lakes in Hangzhou. They are currently unable to stop zombies from entering Nanwan Lake.
It is almost inevitable that there are zombies in the lake, and they can only transport the water to the trading market for processing.
"I see!"
"Do you have any other questions? Let's ask them together. Show me the design drawings." Xie Changshan dragged the stool closer to Wang Peng.
"No more questions. The design drawing is not finished yet, but I'll give you a look first."
Xie Changshan looked at the design drawing and said, "Zoom in and look at the sedimentation tank."
Wang Peng moved the mouse to enlarge the design drawing.
The location for the construction of the entire water plant was finally determined in the South District after discussion last night.
The East District is a residential area with a large population, and there are many buildings in the East District. The remaining space is very small, and it is not enough space to build a water plant.
The West District is an industrial area with serious pollution.
In the North District, there is the trading bazaar management office building, and the military training ground also occupies a large space. The prison is also here, so it is not suitable.
The most suitable one is the transportation and warehouse area in the southern district. There are relatively few people here and there is a large area of land to be developed.
Xie Changshan looked at the drawings they designed in the office and gave modification suggestions from time to time.
Wang Peng, Ma Hong, and Sun Kang recorded Xie Changshan's opinions.
Half an hour later, Xie Changshan finished reading all the drawings and took a long breath and said:
"There is no problem with the overall design idea. Just continue designing according to this idea. I will come over in the evening."
"Okay." The three of them said in unison.
"Come on!" Xie Changshan patted their shoulders one by one, turned and left the office.
I went down to the office building and hurriedly got into a car.
Asked the driver:
"Has Liu Yu brought anyone there?"
"He's out. Just ten minutes after you entered the office building, he took people out." The driver replied.
"Well, let's go out of the city."
Liu Yu was the person he brought from the Da Zhangshu base. This Liu Yu used to be a contractor and had contracted many projects before the end of the world.
This kind of trench excavation construction is a piece of cake for Liu Yu.
However...there are more factors to consider when digging trenches in the apocalypse.
It is necessary to fully consider whether zombies will damage the ditch, so after the drinking water ditch is excavated, bricks or culverts are placed in the ditch, sealed with cement, and filled with soil.
The vehicle drove out of the trading market and headed towards Nanwan Lake on the road.
As soon as he left the trading market, he saw workers on the edge of the asphalt road digging the ground with hoes.
The positions on the ground were marked with wooden stakes painted in red. These were the positions they had chosen in advance yesterday or two days. Through the trenches dug with a level and using the height difference, they were able to divert the water from Nanwan Lake to the trading area.
In the market.
Since it is ten kilometers long, we started digging from the direction of the trading market and continued digging to the side of Nam Van Lake.
The width of the trench is set to two meters, and the height is also two meters.
A fence will be set up every 500 meters, and an entrance will be built above to facilitate the later cleaning of the ditch.
The entire excavation site was in full swing.
A long team of workers was digging in the sun with hoes, and there were also large and small excavators mixed in among them.
Such a large project spreads nearly one kilometer in length.
Around the workers, there were nearly a hundred supervisors directing them.
These supervisors are all transferred from the trading market construction site and have rich supervisory experience.
Digging ditches seems simple, but it must be able to successfully introduce water to the trading market. The specific implementation is not that simple.
These workers only need to listen to the instructions of the supervisors and dig at a fixed place to a certain width and depth immediately, but the supervisors must know how deep each section of road needs to be dug.
soon.
He saw Liu Yu standing under a tree in the car.
Liu Yu was talking to several supervisors at this time.
"Stop." Xie Changshan said to the driver.
The vehicle stopped.
The trench was dug along the side of the road to maximize the use of existing conditions.
Liu Yu saw Xie Changshan getting out of the car next to him and quickly said to several supervisors:
"You guys must patrol back and forth and measure repeatedly to ensure that the height of each section of the ditch meets the original setting."
"Otherwise, the height will be different and we will have to rework it, so just go ahead and get busy."
"Yes." Several core supervisors turned around and saw Jie Changshan behind them.
"Execution Chief Engineer."
"Execution Chief Engineer."
"Yeah." Xie Changshan nodded.
Passing by, he looked at Liu Yu and said:
"The excavation of the ditch is a huge project. You have to keep a close eye here. The trading market and Nanwan Lake must be opened within fifteen days, otherwise it will be too late."
Liu Yu nodded and said:
"Don't worry, Mr. Xie, fifteen days will definitely be fine, but I'm worried that when we open the last section of the road to Nanwan Lake, there will be too many people and a lot of noise, and there will be zombies coming out of the lake."
"You don't have to worry about this. When the time comes, a combat team will naturally come to clean up the zombies and protect the construction team." Xie Changshan replied.
"Then, I'll feel relieved."
"You and I can take another excavation route and see what areas still need to be adjusted."
"Okay."
"Bring your measuring instrument and level."
"OK."
.......
The sun is shining brightly.
Zhang Meng, a member of the Feilun Gang, led fellow gang members He Liangwei and others to dig into the soil with hoes.
Hey yo, hey yo!
Zhang Meng tied his coat to the waist of his trousers and spit on his hands.
Dig the soil vigorously.
"Brother Meng, we are digging here, what should we do if there are zombies approaching?" He Liangwei asked as he dug the soil.
Zhang Meng wiped his sweat and said:
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "What are you afraid of? There are so many of us. If a zombie comes, it will be beaten to death with a hoe."
"Besides, look over there."
Zhang Meng pointed to a hillside not far away, "There are still people watching over there. If there are really zombies, they will definitely sound the alarm."
He Liangwei looked at the gunmen on the hillside, nodded and said, "That's fine."
"Just work, work for a day, and you will get more than one point!"
"Uh-huh."
As time goes by, the sun hangs high in the sky.
The temperature rises.
Some workers couldn't stand it anymore, so they took off their shirts and worked shirtless.
None of them have fat bellies, they are either skinny or lean, and the muscles they have are not the kind of muscles that can be trained in the gym in the last days. Although they are not good-looking, they are really strong.
Endurance and strength are both good.
"It's time to put the food on—"
At this moment, several pickup trucks drove by, and there was a horn on the pickup truck that kept repeating.
The supervisor saw the pickup truck coming and shouted to the workers who were digging:
"Take a break and have something to eat!"
Zhang Meng's upper body was bronzed, with a layer of sweat oozing from his surface skin, making him look very strong.
He pushed the hoe hard into the soil, and the hoe stood on the soil.
He rubbed his hands, took his brothers and picked up their rice bowls, and walked to the pickup truck.
A layer of clean cloth was placed on the two pickup trucks in front, and the tortillas were spread on it.
Seen from a distance, the tortillas stack up to form a hill.
There is a huge bucket on the two pickup trucks behind, and the water can be collected by opening the faucet.
Under the command of the supervisor, Zhang Meng and others lined up to receive a piece of corn tortilla and a bottle of water.
The whole tortilla is as big as an adult's face, dry and thick.
Although this kind of corn tortilla is only three taels, it is similar to compressed biscuits. The moisture inside has been baked and dried, leaving almost no moisture, making it very solid.
So every time you eat, you must eat it with water, otherwise it will be dry and difficult to swallow.
One corn tortilla like this is enough to feed an adult.
