Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

After a night of rest, Chen Xin, his parents, and the cousin-in-law who was in charge of driving returned to the village shelter again.

After returning to the shelter, it was inevitable to ask for warmth and concern. After Chen Xin dealt with it, he found the second aunt and told her that he wanted some chicks to bring back to raise.

"It's easy to say, but Ah Xin, can you take the chick back? It's so cold now that the chick can easily freeze to death!" The second aunt expressed her concern and took Chen Xin to the chicken farm in the shelter. .

The second aunt opened the door of the chicken farm, and a warm air that was different from the slightly cold air in the shelter poured out, causing Chen Xin to look sideways.

This chicken farm was converted from an ordinary room with about seven or eight hens and a rooster. A chicken coop was built with bricks and asbestos tiles in the corner, and an electric heater was placed on the other side.

This is the first heater that Chen Xin has seen since he came to this shelter.

"All the chickens are here. It's fine if you want to bring the chicks back to raise them. You can give you two hens, but in such a cold day, I'm afraid your chickens will freeze to death if you can't bring them back." The second aunt opened it. After checking the baffle at the entrance of the chicken farm, he walked into the chicken farm by himself, and while feeling the eggs in the chicken coop, he complained to Chen Xinban: "Now the chickens are doing better than people, and there are no people. Roast the fire, but the chicken has to keep the nest warm for it, so as not to lay eggs! What kind of world do you think this is?"

Listening to his second aunt's words, Chen Xin could only laugh and didn't say anything more.

Everyone knows what the world is now, and the second aunt is just complaining a few words, and Chen Xin does not need to answer her.

However, Chen Xin was quite sure about whether he could bring the chicks back, and replied affirmatively to Eryi: "I don't want to hatch chicks, Eryi, just give me a few eggs that can hatch chicks. , I will take the eggs back, and I will hatch the chicks when I get back to my place. I have heating equipment there, the temperature is not low, and there is no problem with raising chickens. "

"That's very good. It's good to raise a few chickens. You can touch two eggs to eat every day." The second aunt heard that Chen Xin said that she had the conditions to raise chickens, so she didn't say anything, just asked him: "Then How many eggs do you want, Ah Xin? Why don't you bring an extra hen? Otherwise, the chicks don't have a hen's nest, and it's not easy to raise."

"It should be enough to hatch three or five chicks' eggs. The main thing is to have a male and a female, which will be better." Chen Xin put forward his own requirements.

"Then I'll pick ten eggs and a hen for you. You can go back and build a chicken coop and keep warm. The hen will almost be able to hatch the chicks from the nest." The second aunt nodded and put the eggs she touched on. In a basket, it was handed to Chen Xin to hold, and the chicken manure on the chicken farm was cleaned up again, and then Chen Xin left the chicken farm with Chen Xin.

Together with the second aunt, they sent the harvested eggs to the storage room. Chen Xin looked at the small storage room and frowned: "Second aunt, there are not many things here! Do you only have so many supplies here?"

"It's quite a lot! The other villages around are not as good as us." The second aunt said with great emotion, but also affirmed Chen Xin's statement: "The food delivered by the town every week is only enough for one week, we can To have these things in stock, we still rely on the few chickens in the greenhouse and chicken farm that you told us to build. We can get a lot of vegetables and eggs every month in exchange for some things.

Other villages have a much harder life than us. They can only live on the food delivered by the town every week. If the town does not deliver the food in time, they will starve, and even starve to death. "

The second aunt's remarks made Chen Xin's heart palpitate and starve to death. In the Yan Kingdom, this is already a memory of the previous generation.

The Yan Kingdom is a traditional farming and civilized country. It has always relied heavily on the land to maintain the lives of the people. Even in modern times with advanced technology, various natural and man-made disasters can still greatly affect the farmers' harvest and life in a year.

In fact, before the large-scale promotion of hybrid rice in the Yan Kingdom, the grain output of the Yan Kingdom could not meet the needs of the common people, and the per capita arable land area of ​​the Yan Kingdom was also quite low in the world.

This is also why, in the memory of the previous generation, when there was a massacre, there would be a nationwide famine.

If it weren't for the hybrid rice of the Great Druid Yuan, and the efforts of the vast number of agricultural scientific researchers, the country's grain production could grow even as the area of ​​arable land decreased year by year, and the country of Yan would have faced a food crisis long ago.

In fact, it was only after entering the 21st century that the Yan Kingdom realized the transition from not being able to eat enough to being full.

However, with the arrival of the apocalyptic catastrophe caused by the meteorite impact, the food crisis has actually come to the people of the Yan Kingdom.

The disasters brought about by the meteorite impact are various. The most intuitive impact is that the cultivated land in the whole country is destroyed.

Before the disaster, the Yan Kingdom had enough food to eat for three years, but there was no output. Even if the food lasted for ten years, it would be eaten up one day.

Thanks to the efforts of the state before the disaster, 80% of the population of the Yan State survived. These populations provided a considerable amount of labor for the post-disaster reconstruction work of the Yan State, but they also provided logistics, especially food. Supply has brought enormous pressure.

Before the disaster, the grain output of the Yan Kingdom had reached an average of 650 million tons per year, and the per capita grain occupancy was about 470 kilograms. This amount of food could meet the consumption of the people of the Yan Kingdom. This is why the people of the Yan Kingdom had never had enough to eat before the disaster. It has turned into a reason to eat enough.

But now the 650 million tons of annual grain output has all been turned into fly ash, and all the cultivated land in the country has been destroyed by the disaster caused by the meteorite impact. Due to the current climate and environment, it can no longer be cultivated.

At present, the main source of food in the Yan Kingdom is the limited food produced by the greenhouses of various shelters and specially set up planting areas. These foods can meet part of the needs and consumption, but they can never meet the needs of the nearly one billion survivors in the country.

In short, if the country cannot solve the problem of food supply and demand before the food stockpile is exhausted, after two to three years, a considerable part of the survivors will starve to death.

For Chen Xin, he certainly couldn't influence the whole country and make the people of the whole country have enough to eat, but he could at least make sure that his relatives could at least have enough food in the disaster of the end of the world.

As for the key to being able to do this, it is natural to rely on the system to upgrade the sanctuary.

However, the upgrade can't be said to be a survival point without any planning, it is easy to cause various problems, and even if the shelter is to be upgraded, Chen Xin must also consider the actual needs of his relatives.

——————————————

Chen Xin found his second uncle, and planned to first ask him what problems the shelter in the village currently has, what are the most urgent needs, and then consider which projects to upgrade first.

"What are the current problems and needs in the village?" After listening to Chen Xin's question, the second uncle touched his chin and thought for a while, and then replied, "The problem is nothing more than food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Whether you can do it now, you don't need to go out in such a cold day. The only thing to consider in a shelter is heating.

As for the rest of the food and clothing, it's not a big problem. With the supplies sent by the town every week, plus the greenhouse in the shelter and the chickens raised by your second aunt, we can still ensure that everyone is full. . "

Chen Xin nodded and said conclusively: "That is to say, the most urgent need in the village is heating?"

"It can be said that the weather is getting colder and colder. Everyone is doing things and activities during the day, but they can still survive, but sleeping at night is very uncomfortable." The second uncle expressed his concern and rushed to Chen helplessly. Xin said: "The heating in the shelter now relies on generators to generate electricity, but the generators all rely on a little gasoline sent by the town every month. In case the gasoline sent by the town is not enough next time, or it is not sent at all. , we can't take it anymore."

After Chen Xin heard it, he immediately understood.

Sure enough, even in different places, the needs are roughly the same.

"Let me think of a solution to these problems, and try to solve this problem for the village." Chen Xinchong's second uncle made a promise, but also put forward some requirements: "I can help the refugees in the village do some renovations, but I may need some materials. I'll ask the second uncle to ask the town for it or change it."

"Upgrading? Ah Xin, can you really do it? What can you transform?" The second uncle immediately showed concern when he heard what Chen Xin said.

"There are many things that can be changed, but the first thing to do is to solve the problem of power supply. I will first remove a battery from my car and connect it to the circuit of the shelter, so that the power supply problem can be solved temporarily, and I will do it later. Make some renovations to make the electricity self-sufficient." Chen Xin explained his thoughts, and also explained his thoughts to the second uncle.

After listening to Chen Xin's thoughts, the second uncle showed a happy expression on his face, and the wrinkles on his forehead stretched out a lot: "If it can really solve the problem of power supply, it will be a big help! When the shelter was built We listened to your suggestion, Ah Xin, and installed a heating system, but unfortunately, the electricity has not been able to keep up, and now we don't dare to drive that thing."

"Is there a heating system in the shelter?" Chen Xin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, but suddenly.

Obviously, many problems were taken into account when the country built the shelter, and Chen Xin also reminded them a lot about the construction of the shelter. There must be a solution to the problem of heating that must be solved.

It's just that the shortage of energy makes the heating system a mere decoration.

Then solve the power supply problem first, so that the heater can be turned on! Chen Xin made up his mind.

The food problem is the most difficult problem to solve after the disaster, because all the arable land has been lost, and it is impossible to meet the food needs of all people by building greenhouses in shelters, growing mushrooms and raising mice. There will inevitably be some people who cannot eat it. full, or even starved to death. But this process is slow, and it is not a problem that will appear at the beginning. The cruelty of the end of the world is also shown little by little, instead of fast-forwarding to hell mode all at once.
