Qiao Xuejun thought for a moment and said, "Let me guess."
When the temperature is around -20°C, the base consumes about 10 liters of blue oil a day. When it is -72°C, it is a little over 30 liters.
About 1,000 liters are needed per month.
Her system reported that the storage capacity was 100%, which meant it was enough for two months, at least 2,000 liters.
She calculated it carefully and deliberately guessed less, hoping to make people feel proud: "1500 liters!"
Zhao Xian raised his eyebrows: "Less."
Qiao Xuejun praised: "So many!"
Zhao Xian nodded: "Bold guess."
"2000 liters."
Zhao Xian went to get the toiletries and replied to her, "It's still not enough."
Qiao Xuejun thought about it and made a bold guess: "3,000 liters?"
For example, a salmon weighing 700 kilograms produces 5 liters of blue oil.
Today, Zhao Xian mobilized 300 people to move the huge fish. Judging from the convoy, it must weigh at least 10 tons.
And that species seemed to be Norwegian mackerel, which is very rich in oil.
Zhao Xian: "You're right, 3800 liters."
Qiao Xuejun's eyes widened: "Really?"
This is almost 4,000 liters. After the deep-sea creatures come ashore, usually it is only 100 liters a day. Zhao Xian has been working very hard during this period, and he can produce about 200 to 300 liters a day.
But today it was 3,800 liters, which is incredible.
Qiao Xuejun thought it was at most 3,000 liters.
Zhao Xian: "The rare icy mackerel we caught today, 30% of its body can be used to make oil."
Qiao Xuejun calculated: "Those 3,800 liters will be enough for our base to use for at least four months. Adding the 1,500 liters that are left, it will be enough for half a year."
This is all taken into account, including the consumption during the year-round low temperature of -72℃.
In fact, when the weather warms up, we won’t need to consume so much energy in two months, and the time we spend will probably double.
Qiao Xuejun was very happy: "Then for the next year, the patrol team won't have to take so many risks. We should focus on defense and get more rest."
She added, "You can also develop agriculture for me and build a few more greenhouses. There's also a chicken farm. I can build one here so Uncle Zhang can get Rudin's eggs directly. There's also a rabbit factory so Sister Li can comb her fur directly. Build it near the stables and make it a super ranch."
Zhao Xian: "Of course, anything is fine."
Qiao Xuejun was curious again: "But why are you so powerful today?"
Zhao Xian was completely bewildered by the praise, with a smile in his eyes: "Didn't we hear from Elder An and the others about the characteristics of mutant creatures before?"
Qiao Xuejun nodded.
Zhao Xian: "We devised a plan. We trapped the fish in a closed body of water, unable to get out. Its breathing sacs were broken, and it couldn't breathe using its gills alone. After 30 minutes, when it was about to collapse, we opened the exit, waited for it to eagerly jump out, and then injected it with several semi-finished drugs."
“It’s working pretty well.”
"But all the injections were failures from the professors, and I don't know which one worked."
The big fish fell to the ground and died instantly.
They dismembered it on the spot, loaded it onto a sled, and brought it back to base: "The whole fish, a total of 12 tons."
Judging from its length, I thought it was about 8 tons.
Qiao Xuejun: "12 tons, no wonder it's so big."
She also guessed it was around 10 tons.
The two talked while washing up, and soon went to bed.
Lying in bed, Qiao Xuejun reminded Zhao Xian, "Everyone thinks it won't get any colder. But if... the temperature drops suddenly, will you lose your temper?"
Today, I was unhappy just by hearing her say that the temperature would drop.
If you really lose your temper, your production efficiency will be reduced again.
Zhao Xian: "Don't worry, I'll make arrangements. Let everyone be happy during this period. I'll issue a warning tomorrow."
Qiao Xuejun: "Okay. I hope the salvage team won't take any risks."
Zhao Yun, Ren Wangwang, and the patrol soldiers of the original Mountain Leopard Brigade are all on the boat. What if something happens as the system said in the original book and they can't come back?
Qiao Xuejun felt uncomfortable just thinking about it: "Ren Wangwang will obey your orders, right?"
Zhao Xian held her hands and said softly, "No doubt about it."

The White Shark is stationed on the edge of Gongshi city.
The salvage teams were divided into 20 teams and went in different directions to collect supplies.
Because the weather was exceptionally good, we had a very rich harvest over the past three days and had a great time looting.
That morning, Ren Wangwang, Zhao Yun and Captain Qin began to count the goods and supplies.
The people from the Coordination Department took a look and said, "We have collected roughly 60% of the supplies on our list."
"Do you want to continue?"
Everyone was a little hesitant and didn't speak for a while.
Because the order they received when they came out was that they had to return before the 5th, which is the 4th, or at the latest today.
The return journey takes about 7 hours, which includes time for unexpected weather conditions. It’s time to return now.
"But the weather is fine," said the first mate.
The others echoed this, looking out at the sky from the cockpit.
It's 8 o'clock in the morning, the sky is cloudless and the sun can be seen.
Captain Qin looked at one of them and said, "Teacher Wu, what do you think the weather will be like?"
Old Wu is from the meteorological team.
Hearing this, he pointed to the electronic radar map and said, "From my perspective, tomorrow will be sunny at least. There won't be any storms, so we'll still have time to return."
"If you ask me, I'd suggest just keep going. Delay your return."
The third mate said, "That's right. A general is not bound by his sovereign's orders when on the battlefield. If Lord Zhao were here, he would have stayed longer. After all, we used up so much blue oil."
"It would be uneconomical if we didn't bring back more supplies."
