"Could it be that there was excess earth on the leveled ground at that time, and they chose to pile it into the earth bag at the back?"
Lin Mo listened and said with a smile: "It's just to level the ground. There won't be any excess earth. At worst, it's just a layer of ground. At most, the ground will be higher. This is not a bad thing for the warehouse.
Even if there is excess earth, it is more cost-effective to transport it than to pile up a platform. The stone wall around it is the cost. If you want to build a building on it, you have to compact the earth layer by layer, and the materials and labor are not small.
"
After hearing this, Lin Wenhua also smiled and said: "You have already made pretty good guesses. Now, guess what the problem is?"
"Below..." Lin Mo pointed to the ground at his feet and said, "I guess they either dug an underground warehouse underneath, or built a secret passage somewhere."
"It's a warehouse, right at our feet. It's said that when it was built, there was a ditch here, and part of the terrain was lower than it is now. So we excavated and built an underground warehouse on that foundation.
However, it was already flooded when the second boss took over. I don’t know if he tried to repair it. However, the third boss did drain the water after he took over, but after draining for a day, the water level did not drop.
give up."
"The water level hasn't dropped much?" Lin Mo was a little confused, thought for a while, and said: "I guess there is no water source. Just now, Deputy Captain Zhang said that the water level of the well is below more than ten meters, which means that the aquifer is still further down, and the warehouse is not
It's possible to dig that deep.
I guess something went wrong and the water poured in. As for the water level not dropping much, I guess it's because the space underneath is not small and the boss drained too little water, so that's why..."
"I have the same idea as you. We have already arranged for people to find the water pump. If it is really a big underground warehouse, we will make a lot of money."
After chatting for a while, the three of them speculated about what went wrong in the underground warehouse.
"Could it be that the warehouse drainage channel is connected to the warehouse?" Zhang Jingmin was the first to put forward his own guess.
"It's possible..." Lin Mo couldn't be sure about this situation. The warehouse used an underdrain drainage method. A large stone slab was covered above the ditch, but gaps were cut on both sides for drainage.
But Lin Mo thinks this possibility is not very high. After all, that place is used as an underground warehouse. The drainage system must be avoided as much as possible. If it cannot be avoided, sufficient waterproofing measures will be taken. The possibility of problems is unlikely, but Lin Mo
Mo couldn't think of a more convincing possibility.
"Forget it..." Lin Wenhua waved his hand and said, "No need to make random guesses. We will pump the water outside later. Once it is drained, you will know what went wrong. Why don't you two guess where the entrance is?
"
Hearing this, the two men immediately started scanning, but there was an obvious difference. Zhang Jingmin stretched his head to look around, while Lin Mo focused directly on the bungalow opposite.
The exterior walls of the bungalow are also made of blue bricks. They have not been scraped or leveled, but the brick joints have been treated. Lin Mo looked at it several times and finally found that the warehouse doors on both sides of the bungalow were not in the middle, but very far away.
On the side facing the bedroom.
"Team leader, the warehouse doors on both sides of the bungalow are too close to the ** room. Except for the warehouse doors on both sides of the main door, which are located on the side away from the main door, the warehouse doors here are located on the sides. The others are basically arranged in the center. Between the entrances
The second one should be in the warehouses on both sides of the bungalow."
"That's right..." Lin Wenhua nodded and said: "Enter through the doors on both sides. There are secret doors on the wall on the side of the bedroom. There are stairs on both sides of the bungalow. The space at the bottom of the stairs is enclosed. Inside
It is a freight channel diagonally downward.
I guess there are small secret passages or vents in other places, but they are very secret and we don’t have them yet.
I wanted to see if you could notice this detail before, but I didn't expect you to guess that there was a problem underground through the mound of soil. The mound is probably the excess earth dug from the underground warehouse."
"Maybe? But I still feel that something is not right..." Lin Mo also made this guess before, but after Lin Wenhua added the information, he felt that something was wrong.
"Where..." Lin Wenhua was about to ask, but he didn't want Xu Guyu to call him over, so he had to swallow the question first.
As soon as Lin Wenhua left, Lin Mo and Zhang Jingmin were walking, watching and chatting. Zhang Jingmin couldn't help but said: "Brother Lin, your observation skills are really incredible. It really puts me to shame. I feel like I have been here in the Intelligence Department all these years."
, they all lived in the dog’s belly.”
"What are you talking about? I just came here, and there are still many shortcomings. How can it be as exaggerated as you said?"
"Oh... I'm being humble... I'm telling the truth. I really feel that I can't compare with you!"
Lin Mo heard the words and said with a smile: "I'm not telling lies! In terms of observation ability, I can't really say that I am better than you, it's just that the external performance is a little different.
I usually like to read and am used to focusing my attention on a small area, so it is easier to notice some details when observing. Moreover, I am used to observing everything around me with a critical mind.
I was able to discover the details just now because I took the initiative to discover them.
But you are different. What you need in daily actions is that you can listen to six directions and observe in all directions. You tend to grasp the overall situation of the entire region. If you are used to this method, you will naturally miss some details subconsciously.
After all, human attention and observation power cannot be infinite. Since we choose to observe a larger range, it is natural that some less conspicuous details will be missed.
I'm far behind you in this aspect. Sometimes I get so absorbed in thinking about things that I lose my perception of the outside world. People may not even be aware of it when they reach the end. I can't perceive the overall environment around me either.
You are so sharp."
After listening to Lin Mo's analysis, Zhang Jingmin thought for a long time and said, "Just because you can say these things, I have to give you a thumbs up. At least I don't have your knowledge on this matter."
The two exchanged business blows and had a great time talking. Zhang Jingmin finally concluded: "It seems that I will read more books in the future and concentrate my attention. Sometimes this is more useful than seeing all directions and listening to all directions."
What's more, the gap between you and me is not just about concentration, but also about knowledge and experience."
"Seriously, let's learn from each other. But when it comes to focusing your attention, there are actually shortcuts. For example, indoors or at night, you can turn off or block large-scale lighting tools or lights, or block the light from your flashlight.
There is only a small area, so attention will naturally be focused on one area.”
"You can try this..."
The two visited the bungalow while chatting. The first floor was used as a warehouse office, reception, restaurant, kitchen, etc. The second floor was for normal standard guest rooms, and the third floor was for high-end guest rooms. The indoor space was quite large, especially the high-end ones on the third floor.
The guest room can be said to be a small apartment, but the layout inside is a bit old and outdated, and some facilities have not kept up with the times. Otherwise, it can be regarded as a high-end hotel or restaurant.
The stairs can go directly to the top of the building, but when I walked out, I saw that the situation was a bit not optimistic. Sludge, weeds, and bird droppings were all over the roof. In some places, the weeds even became a patchwork and grew into a grass carpet. It must have been there for many years.
No cleaning was done.
The two walked around the roof of the building, mainly to see the surrounding environment. However, the warehouses around the top floor were only slightly lower than the bungalows. If they were too close, they could not see them. They could only see the higher ground in the distance.
Due north is the rest of Qingliang Mountain extending from the northwest, due west is Pineapple Mountain, due south is Wugui Mountain, and east-southeast is Wutai Mountain and Baibupo.
In terms of transportation, heading northwest along Suijiacang Road is Donggua City and Jinling Women's University. Further west is the Drum Tower, which gathers government departments such as the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, the Railway Taxation Bureau, and the Judicial Yuan. Beyond that is Jigo Alley.
There are Wutai Mountain and Wugui Mountain to the south, so you need to detour from both sides, but the distance is not far, and once you detour, you will reach a densely populated urban area, so you can choose different directions according to the situation.
You can reach the city wall within a short walk to the west. Less than one kilometer to the north and south are Qingliang Gate and Hanxi Gate. Beyond the city gate are the streets outside the city wall and the road near the wall. Beyond are the Qinhuai River. Between the two gates.
There is a Shicheng Bridge in the middle, which was a stone arch bridge built in the Ming Dynasty. Later it was changed to a stone platform and wooden deck bridge, which can pass cars.
To the north, you can take Hujuguan, Mayili, Shuizuguan, Buyuqiao or other highways directly back to the north of the city, or merge into Zhongshan North Road to exit the city and go straight to Xiaguan area.
To be honest, this location meets the actual needs of the action team. Although it is located in a remote part of the city, it is not far from the east, west, north, and south of the city, and it can be catered for anywhere in the city.
The two exchanged ideas and went downstairs. They found that everyone had gathered together, so they quickly walked over to join them.
Seeing everyone gathered, Lin Wenhua asked everyone about their views and opinions on this place. Everyone's attitude was supportive, but they also put forward some opinions.
Like a deputy captain of the second team, he felt that he was surrounded by hills and was worried about being spied on. Xu Guyu also thought that this place was too big.
It is indeed big. Some of the other places selected by Lin Wenhua are not as big as any building here. This is just the usable area. The area covered is not as much as one building here. This warehouse covers an area of almost 40
acres, some small universities in this era may not have as big an area as it.
Although there were some objections, no one denied this place. After all, there is really no more suitable choice at the moment. They just elaborated on some problems and ideas they discovered, and then everyone discussed it together.
Because Xu Guyu had a relatively high status, he expressed an idea of his and signaled everyone to speak freely before stepping aside, not wanting to disturb others.
Considering his relationship with Lin Wenhua, Lin Mo didn't want to be in the limelight at this time. He just quietly listened to everyone's opinions from the outside.
"Don't you have any ideas?" Perhaps because Lin Mo didn't speak, Xu Guyu quietly walked up to him and asked in a low voice.
Lin Mo heard this and told about the location advantages of this place. After speaking, he paused for a moment and then said: "Section Chief, I think this place is a bit big, but there are big uses for it.
In addition to the area occupied by us for normal office and other functions, there is still a lot left in this place. We can completely convert some training grounds for training, divide some areas into living places, and bear everyone's food and accommodation.
After all, most people are alone in Nanjing. Food and accommodation are provided directly, which also avoids some troubles of being scattered abroad. Moreover, it is indeed relatively remote here, and it is inconvenient to commute to and from work outside.
In such a large place, it is possible to provide single rooms for everyone. Of course, this is not mandatory. You can choose to live outside if necessary. We will appropriately subsidize some transportation expenses to facilitate their commuting to and from get off work.
On the other hand, our operational personnel, plus those assigned to work in the field, and others who are on and off-duty to provide necessary support, are now estimated to have to provide office space for 1,670 people, and the Intelligence Division is in a period of rapid expansion.
, there may be more personnel in the future.”
"That's very well said..." Xu Guyu nodded in affirmation and said, "Since you have an idea, express it proactively! We will all live and work together in the future, so we have to be more proactive."
Now that Xu Guyu said so, Lin Mo no longer hid it, took the initiative to find a way to speak, and expressed his thoughts and opinions.
Some people also raised objections to Lin Mo's idea, mainly because it was difficult to handle situations such as living in a dormitory and having relatives and friends visiting.
This is indeed a problem. After all, everyone is no longer a student in school, and it is obviously not suitable to bring outsiders such as relatives and friends here. In addition, many people in the group are willing to move their relatives to live around Nanjing, which will make this situation even worse.
universal.
However, Lin Mo did not immediately give a solution, but asked everyone to reach a consensus first to see if they were sure to choose this place, and then discuss and resolve these problems and disputes.
Regarding this point, after careful consideration, everyone unanimously agreed to choose this one. After all, it is controversial and problematic, but there is really no more suitable one at present. If you want to find a better one, you still don’t know the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse.
Regarding the problems mentioned before, Lin Mo also gave his own solution, which is to rent and purchase some residences outside the group, which can be used for daily visits to relatives and friends. Whoever needs it can use it. For confidentiality and security reasons, it can be changed frequently.
.
Because a consensus was reached, everyone had fewer arguments. They began to think more about solutions to disputes and problems. As more problems were solved, everyone discovered that this place is indeed not bad.
Now that it was confirmed, Lin Wenhua asked Xu Guyu for instructions and made the decision directly, and immediately arranged for Zhang Jingmin to handle the remaining work with the boss and relevant departments.
In fact, this place has been basically decided beforehand, otherwise the former boss would not have been able to evacuate the people early without leaving a guard. Lin Mo's so-called reaching a consensus with everyone is to remind everyone to proceed under this determined premise.
Discuss rather than engage in pointless arguments.
As soon as Zhang Jingmin left, a team member arranged by Lin Wenhua drove a truck with a pump, pipelines, oil, and a few... crooked melons and cracked dates. They looked like civilian workers who had brought work, and drove into the cargo yard through the building.
