Hoarding Goods In Space: Struggling To Survive In A Crisis World.
Chapter 599 Purifying the Salt Mine
Ye Fu fully charged all his batteries, the waterwheel in the room was running normally, and the lights in the mining area were now on 24 hours a day.
Thousands of residents in Ho Kwang City and residential housing shelters were also burned by the sun's poison. Many factories in Ha Kwang City are also returning to production. Residents who did not go to work could only wrap their bodies tightly, or come out wrapped in sheets and blankets.
What the base was most worried about was that if the plants in the planting area and hundreds of acres of medicinal fields several kilometers away were burned to death by the sun poison, the losses would be immeasurable.
The scientific research team thought of artificial rainfall to withstand the toxic forces of the sun, but after sunrise, there were no clouds in space.Without clouds, there were no conditions for artificial rainfall.
In fact, helicopters can also be used to splash water, which is the same principle as air fire suppression.Water in the dam reservoir is still sufficient, and sprinkling water will not waste too much water source, so the water is not enough, but planting areas and medicine fields add up to thousands of hectares, and sprinkling water is not a problem.
Cheng Lin had been very busy recently. After sunrise, many people at the base suffered from various residual symptoms. Many people become blind after looking directly at the sun. Hospitals were full every day, and pharmaceutical factories were flourishing. It was purportedly there would be an addition of 30,000 manpower Fifty production lines.
The number of patients burned by the sun poison was increasing every day, the burns were similar to burns and burns, many patients had blood blisters on his arms, his skin had become black on fire, he said, and there's a stinging smell.
The doctors at the base are all elite, so they are naturally useful for dealing with this kind of burn, fortunately many medicines these days, and patients have been using drugs, and they have been using drugs, and burned limbs are considered salvageable.
There are also people who are unlucky and experience burns directly on the top of the head and face, burns due to sun toxins comparable to sulfuric acid, and face burns equivalent to disability.
The top of the head is burned, and the hair follicles in that area are all necrotic, and no hair grows in the future.
A week after sunrise, Shen Li returned to the basement. After hearing what he said about the situation in the hospital, Ye Fu gave him ten cans of self-prepared ointment. It should be useful too. Shen Li was running around outside every day, so it should be beneficial.
Jiang Rong was back busy lately, she had to go out to gather supplies at night, and entered the room to help Ye Fu fix the salt mine during the day.
Except that the sun rises at 7:30 am on the first day. From the second day, the sun rises at 6:00 am and sets at 9:00 pm every day. Long days and short nights. The base can only allow workers who work outdoors to schedule adjustable, take breaks during the day, and rush to work at night.
"Sister Jiang, Brother Cheng asked me to tell you that there are a lot of supplies to collect tonight, and it may take all night."
In the past, Jiang Rong would only come out to collect items for two or three hours, but he would have to collect hundreds or even thousands of tons of items overnight.
"know."
Jiang Rong did not say anything more. Staying up all night won't affect him at all. It was better to gather supplies early, and then he could help Ye Fu refine the salt mine with peace of mind.
After Shen Li left, Ye Fu grabbed Jiang Rong's hand, "I'll go there with you tonight, the two of us will gather together, the speed will be faster."
Jiang Rong looked at the dark circles under Ye Fu's eyes for these two days, and rubbed her hair sadly.
"No, you're well rested, I'll be right back, and I have to fix the salt mine during the day, your body can't stand it, I'm different from you, I don't feel tired."
He's not a robot, how could he not feel tired.
But he insisted, Ye Fu would not deny his kindness.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you at home, you should come back early."
Jiang Rong smiled, "Of course."
There were many ways to extract salt mines, but now they did not have the machinery and equipment to extract salt mines, so they could only use the most primitive methods.
Find a large iron pot, add clear water to the iron pan, dissolve mineral salts in clear water, heat with fire until the salt solution boils, continue to heat with a large flame, heat with a large heat, stop heating when white crystals appear in large quantities of containers, and use a shovel to remove the Kikis salt from the container and dissolve it in water.
The second step is to pour the salt solution into a container containing activated carbon, cover the top and bottom sides of the activated carbon with a clean gauze, strain the salt solution, then heat to produce salt.
Salt mines in space are rich in minerals, unpolluted, so they have few impurities and high purity, and are not difficult to purify.
We set up an open space the size of a football field outside the planting area, which is specially used for flour milling, rice stripping and other work, and is now used for salt mine purification.
Although it was daytime in the planting area, the temperature was not high, although the salt mine was refined with fire, everyone did not feel stuffy.
Due to the clunky extraction method, he could only extract two or three tons of salt mines per day.Seeing the mountains of salt mines in the sky, Ye Fu felt a little dizzy.How long did he have to work on this?
After more than a month, they would be able to pick cotton and harvest medicinal ingredients, perhaps they were too busy.
An An was pushing a tricycle with a cart containing a salt mine on it, and Xuxu followed him while holding a small piece of salt mine, letting them rest for a while, but the two of them still did not want to, because both of these children were inactive in their studies, they worked more actively than anyone else.
Wenwen had great power, he could easily handle a large tricycle that Police Officer Song could not push with one hand, Wan Tao and Liu Zhang were in charge of the final screening process, the others moved the ore, Ye Fu, Jiang Rong and Tang Yizheng were in charge of the dissolution and survival process.
Ye Fu seemed to have been beaten to death. Although the dark circles under his eyes were heavy, he did his job well. There's too much work in that room. The salt mine should be refined as quickly as possible, and the time can not be delayed, otherwise after a month or two, the cotton harvest will be postponed.
At 6:30 p.m., police officer Song brought Xuxu and An An to the wooden house for cooking, and the others continued to work. Jiang Rong was forced to rest in the wooden house by Ye Fu. He had to work overtime at night, so he could sleep in the moment, grab mental and physical strength.
At 8:30 p.m., everyone left the room and returned to the dormitory to take a shower and rest.
Qi Yuan said that there was no difference between going in and going to work in a nine to five life now, the only difference was that everyone was very active and willing to go to work now.
Ye Fu promised everyone that when the Lunar New Year arrived, he would give everyone a year-end bonus.
"Ye Fu, can you decide for yourself the year-end bonus?"
"Tell me, what do you want?"
Qi Yuan coughed, "I want a camera, I have to take photos and record videos for everyone every day, and the storage on my phone and tablet is full."
You wave your hand, "Okay, I'll satisfy you."
While searching for the materials earlier, I had no idea how many technological products I had collected, however, they would accumulate dust in space, so it was better to give them to Qi Yuan.
At nine p.m., Jiang Rong left the basement on time and went to the base warehouse to gather supplies.
Everyone went back to their rooms to rest.His busy day had just begun.
