Chapter 392 Ice Harvesting Team



Completely fabricated.

The man also said: "It's really unfair. I don't want to work anymore."

Qiao Xuejun lifted the curtain of the greenhouse and looked towards the ice-harvesting team.

Four people pushed two carts to the door. The carts were as long and wide as a 2-meter bed. There were wooden blocks on all four sides of the carts to form a compartment.

The carriage was covered with a layer of clean, waterproof fish skin, on which were stacked thick ice bricks.

The ice harvesting team also has relatively boring and hard work in the base.

They will first choose an ice rink on the sea surface or at the foot of the mountain where the ice is thicker, take ice cutters to cut the ice into squares, push the ice up the mountain with a cart, and send it to the purification room.

After the water is melted and purified in the purification room, it will be injected into the reservoir and wait for it to solidify again.

The ice harvesting team will cut the solidified ice and transport it to the departments in need.

When they saw Qiao Xuejun suddenly appear, the four people in the ice-harvesting team looked obviously panicked.

Qiao Xuejun smiled at them and said, "Please bring the ice into the water tank."

Each greenhouse has a main water tank, which is injected into the hydroponic tank through pipes for water circulation.

The ice harvesting team didn't dare to say anything more. As usual, they quickly and skillfully put the ice from the two trucks into the eight greenhouses.

4 people, each responsible for two greenhouses.

Qiao Xuejun followed the ice harvester who had stopped the others from talking. Seeing him put all the ice into the water tank, she called out, "Thank you for your hard work, big brother. It's cold outside. Drink some hot water."

Qiao Xuejun went to get the kettle, and Xiao Feng immediately took the kettle first, poured a cup of warm water from the kettle lid, and handed it to the ice-harvesting team member: "Brother, have some water."

The older brother was a little surprised. He took off his gloves first and then took the water: "Thank you."

Qiao Xuejun looked at his red hands and asked, "Are the gloves still too thin?"

The elder brother held up the kettle and cup and said, "After all, we are harvesting ice, so it's inevitable that it will be cold."

Qiao Xuejun: "Wait until the horse is fatter, then it can join the ice harvesting team. It won't be so hard to push it."

The elder brother's eyes lit up: "Can this horse still pull a cart?"

Qiao Xuejun: "Yes, they can, but they just need to adapt to the environment and get along with people before they can start working.

The eldest brother nodded repeatedly: "That would be great."

With Ma Shang Gan, it will naturally save a lot of effort.

Qiao Xuejun added, "The spinach will be harvested in a few days. This is the vegetable for the entire base. We'll use this horse to test the waters and see if it can be successfully transported to the base."

After hearing what Qiao Xuejun said, the elder brother raised his eyes and looked around the entire greenhouse: "Can these spinach be eaten by the entire base?"

The greenhouse experimental field on the back mountain is heavily guarded. When they bring ice in, they have to be checked by patrolling guards at the door first.

After putting the ice into the water tank, you have to leave quickly. There is really no chance to stay in and watch for a longer time like today.

Qiao Xuejun looked at him and said, "I just heard you guys say outside that you're worried about not having enough to eat. The harvest hasn't come yet, but when it does, you'll be able to see it on the table."

The elder brother's face changed. What they just said outside was heard by Teacher Qiao.

He hurriedly said, "They are just complaining casually. They don't mean to be dissatisfied, and they won't be lazy."

Qiao Xuejun asked directly, "You just said that someone started it. Who was it? Was it someone who was trying to sow discord among you?"

Qiao Xuejun spoke in a serious tone, but the elder brother didn't hesitate at all. "They're from the city wall patrol team. When we went down the mountain to collect ice, we heard them inspecting the city wall and saying that all the vegetables at the base were distributed to those who didn't work... Because they have a special deal with the base in the city, they get special treatment."

Qiao Xuejun frowned. City wall patrol? Aren't they just saboteurs?

The city wall inspection team is responsible for inspecting the stone wall every day to see if there are any weak spots or collapses, and to repair and report them in time.

Qiao Xuejun: "What special deal are they talking about?"

The elder brother said, "That is to say, the base originally promised to give vegetables to the city residents first, so the city residents agreed to follow us back to the base."

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Feng almost jumped up: "Nonsense! The first thing we planted in the greenhouse was spinach. This spinach is enough for our entire base to eat. Uncle Zhang knows it. People in the city eat sprouts, but these sprouts mature ten days earlier!"

The eldest brother said hurriedly, "I don't believe it. This sounds outrageous. With these conditions, everyone must be eager to come to the base. They are so skinny and can barely survive. How could they make such an unreasonable request?"

Qiao Xuejun confirmed: "That's not the case."

She thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, spinach will be available at the base in three days. You can tell everyone about it."

The eldest brother said: "Okay, if anyone says that again, I will definitely scold him!"

After the ice harvesting team left, Qiao Xuejun continued to work with Xiao Feng to prepare the nutrient solution.

Xiao Feng was still thinking about what the ice harvesting team had said. He asked Qiao Xuejun, "Minister, should we ask the city wall inspection team? This statement is too outrageous."

Qiao Xuejun began to mix the nutrient solution: "Let's get to work first and harvest the spinach. The rumors will be dispelled."

But this does require a heads-up from the patrol team.

Whether it is a conflict among the survivors themselves or there are some bad guys involved, it needs to be taken seriously.

It's already a difficult time, and we're still negotiating with Haibao. If there's a problem internally, it would be easy for someone to take advantage of the situation.

Qiao Xuejun called out to the system in her mind: "Is it Shen Xingtang who's causing trouble?"

System: "There's nothing unusual about her recent activities, just a slight energy fluctuation."

Energy fluctuations mean that props have been used.

Now that Shen Xingtang has nothing to do in the base, it is not impossible that he is wandering around and causing trouble.

Shen Xingtang was left behind by Zhao Xian. Logically, he should have someone look after her.

After preparing the nutrient solution, Qiao Xuejun returned to the outpost and took out her radio to contact the patrol. With Zhao Xian and Ren Wangwang still at the negotiation table, she contacted Wu Haifan.

Wu Haifan is responsible for guarding the base.

"Teacher Qiao? I'm Wu Haifan."

Qiao Xuejun recounted what happened today.

Wu Haifan paused and said, "Teacher Qiao, don't worry about it. We are aware of the situation and have already intervened."

Qiao Xuejun was surprised: "Okay, as long as you know it."

She was curious, but Wu Haifan was clearly hiding something, perhaps involving some management matters that needed to be kept secret. She didn't ask.

Wu Haifan: "Don't worry, Teacher Qiao, it's okay."
