Construction workers wearing exoskeleton armor quickly disembarked from the Jinpeng transport aircraft.
They lined up in an orderly manner, like a powerful army.
Although Hongku Port does not have a high-standard airport, Jinpeng transport aircraft have very low requirements for the runway. As long as there is a smooth cement surface of 800 meters in length, landing and takeoff can basically be achieved.
"Report, 500 people from the 7530th Engineering Brigade should have arrived, but 500 people actually arrived." Su Lin, the captain of the engineering team, saluted and reported the situation.
Xu Yingcheng nodded: "Very good, Captain Su, just follow the plan!"
"yes!"
Semaru, who came with him, looked at the "engineering team" in front of him with a speechless face, fully equipped with exoskeleton armor. You actually told me that I was a construction worker? Do you sapiens really think I am a fool?
Xu Yingcheng smiled and patted his shoulder: "Mr. Semalu, don't make a fuss. Our company employees all need to undergo some safety training. It's not too much to bring some training equipment, right?"
"Isn't this too much..." Semaru reminded humbly.
Xu Yingcheng continued with a smile: "Not much, not much. After all, everyone needs it. After all, the future is long! Natural and man-made disasters are definitely inevitable. If this port is destroyed, then our exports will be expensive."
If you don’t supply enough grain and cooking oil, there may be problems.”
The threat in those words was almost clear.
Semalu also dared to be angry but dared not speak out about this.
As Egypt's population approaches 100 million, coupled with its special pie subsidies, the natural growth rate of the population has soared, and the annual demand for food has also increased.
Egypt's food self-sufficiency rate has also shown a downward trend year by year. After all, arable land is limited, but the population is growing crazily. If it does not import food, it will definitely explode.
How much food is needed for a population of 100 million?
According to the international grain subsistence line, if the annual per capita income is 400 kilograms, 40 million tons of grain are needed every year.
Now, unless Egypt converts all cotton fields growing long-staple cotton into wheat fields, it will be impossible to achieve self-sufficiency in food.
Why didn't Semalu know this? It was precisely because of this that he chose to swallow his anger at this time.
Nowadays, the prices of major grain exporting countries in the world are not as cheap as Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens prepared flour only costs 130 gold yuan per ton, which is equivalent to 260 US dollars per ton.
Even ABCD, which is heavily subsidized, cannot achieve this price. ABCD would rather use the wheat as feed than sell it at a price of US$260 per ton.
Egyptian government and private enterprises have signed a total of 37 grain purchase agreements with Homo sapiens and are expected to sell 12.7 million tons of grain and 2.4 million tons of palm oil to Egypt next year.
These purchase agreements have saved Egypt at least US$8 billion.
Faced with this kind of interest, their income is not high to begin with, and with the current global economic crisis, they are happy to endure the bullying of Homo sapiens.
Semaru left worriedly, he had to wipe his ass for Homo sapiens' actions again.
But Xu Yingcheng didn't care what the other party thought. The low-priced food from Homo sapiens company was not that easy to get, otherwise he would really think that Homo sapiens was doing charity.
Since you have taken the benefits of Homo sapiens, you have to pay the price, so don’t try to fool around with it.
Obviously Semaru and the people behind him are aware of this. They can only help the Homo sapiens company to find good excuses and legal principles to legalize all this and avoid anyone causing trouble to the Homo sapiens.
Although it seems that other people's troubles with Homo sapiens are not directly related to Semaru and the others.
The problem is that they are the forces that signed the agreement with Homo sapiens, and they will definitely not be able to escape when the time comes.
What's more, Homo sapiens are not easy to mess with.
…
When the engineering team arrived at the port, thousands of local people recruited from nearby towns were quickly reorganized into a small team of 10 people by the engineering team, led by more than a hundred new human employees.
Taking into account local cultural customs, the members of this engineering team were all dispatched from Java, Malacca, and Borneo.
Su Lin looked at the tablet in his hand. There was a planned task flow chart on it, a bit like playing a farming game.
In the port terminal area, there are mountains of containers, cement and steel bars, and construction vehicles, which cannot be operated in a swarm.
"Third Squadron, you are responsible for driving the construction vehicles to the temporary parking area, the forklift team, and the transportation team start moving steel and concrete to warehouses 4 and 5."
"yes."
"clear."
Su Lin then ordered another squadron: "Second Squadron, you are responsible for building the supporting facilities of the dock."
"no problem."
"Fourth Squadron, you are responsible for setting up a temporary accommodation area."
"receive."
"Fifth Squadron, you are responsible for setting up a temporary power distribution station."
"yes."
The First Squadron was previously assigned to manage local temporary workers.
The entire engineering team was busy performing their duties.
As a large number of engineering vehicles and engineering equipment were pulled away, a large area was quickly vacated at the dock. According to the interfaces and latch points reserved in advance, a large crane was quickly assembled.
the other side.
One by one, UHV transmission towers also extend from the side of the pier to the open space on the west side 2.7 kilometers away from the port terminal area.
More than a dozen containers were hoisted on this open space by cranes. Inside these containers are pre-designed modular substation equipment, distribution equipment, etc. No secondary assembly is required. Just connect the lines and you can directly
use.
Those local temporary workers who came for internships saw the progress of the project in front of them and felt the oppression of industrial civilization for the first time.
Just like building blocks, a power distribution station rises from the ground.
The new human who led the team was already used to this: "Hurry up, don't get distracted."
Several temporary workers quickly attached the iron hooks to the steel grid that had just been bundled by the fast strapping machine. This steel grid was 30 centimeters thick, 4 meters high, and 4 meters long.
The crane hoists the entire steel grid and moves slowly until the steel grid stops above a trench, with steel columns on both sides that have been driven down in advance.
"Quick, turn left."
The new human captain directed the temporary workers to adjust the position of the steel mesh.
Then he picked up the intercom: "It can be delegated."
"Hiss... Got it."
The crane slowly lowered the steel mesh body, and soon the steel mesh body was inserted into the trench with a depth of 1 meter, and was just stuck between the two columns.
Another team quickly picked up.
First, use special connecting hardware to connect and lock the two steel mesh bodies and the columns.
Then two jacking machines jacked up both sides of the steel grid to form a formwork frame.
Concrete mixer trucks and concrete pouring trucks pour seawater-mixed concrete into the middle of the formwork.
On the special pouring truck, the outlet of the concrete pouring pipe is also connected to a relatively small water injection pipe. This water injection pipe is used to inject a special solution to accelerate the solidification of concrete.
In less than 40 minutes, the roofing machine began to retreat, revealing the reinforced concrete wall that had solidified.
Using this series of construction machinery and fast-setting seawater concrete, one team can build a 48-meter wall.
There are six such construction teams in total. If they work overtime, they can build a high-strength wall of five to six hundred meters in a day.
This is the project construction speed of Homo sapiens. An engineering team of 500 people, plus some temporary workers, can complete the construction of urban infrastructure for 100,000 people within a few months.
With such a fast and efficient engineering team and engineering technology, various infrastructures within the Homo sapiens company have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
