Chapter 440 Iron Box
When they learned yesterday that the arrival of extreme cold was accompanied by wind blades, the two informed the base commander of the news, and also told the two families of Lei Minghu downstairs.
Tell them not to go out.
As for countermeasures, we can only think of other ways.
Early the next morning, Lei Minghu had already welded a number of steel frames using the welding rods that Han Ying had taken out earlier to weld the door.
These steel bars were retrieved from outside when they were building the wall.
There was a lot of it left over from repairing the wall and it was piled up in the corner of the first floor.
Lei Minghu was worried that the wind blades would damage the precious glass, so he planned to make some steel frames and weld them to the outside of the windows, so that they could also block the wind blades.
All three families were busy with these steel frames early in the morning. They ignored everything else and focused on welding the windows on the second and third floors first.
After the windows on the second and third floors were completed, there were not enough steel bars and welding rods. Han Ying said that she and Lu Yuan would find someone outside to buy them.
Qin Qinghai and Lei Minghu each took out 3,000 points, saying that they would refund the excess and pay the shortfall after purchasing the item.
Han Ying did not refuse.
Fortunately, Professor Li said that someone would come to pick up the mutant seafood mushrooms today, so Lu Yuan called the base commander again and asked if he had any extra steel bars to sell some to them.
Because they needed to build a house, the authorities sent a lot of people to knock out a lot of steel bars from the collapsed concrete slabs.
There are many more.
When Ke Qin learned that Lu Yuan and his team wanted steel bars, he agreed immediately.
After asking about the price, Lu Yuan directly transferred 5,000 points, which could be exchanged for several tons.
As for welding rods, there are plenty of them in Han Ying's space. When the time comes, she can just say that she is buying them from the official store together with the steel bars.
The weather is too cold. I don’t want to move. I just want to hide in bed.
But Han Ying and the others' kang was not yet completely set up, so they had to hurry and set it up.
Lei Minghu and Qin Qinghai's families have already settled the matter.
In order to save firewood, they used a large kang, the kind where the whole family could sleep together.
However, even if we are a family, we sometimes need privacy, so the middle of the big kang is divided into two sides with wooden boards.
The kang that Han Ying and Lu Yuan slept on was a little smaller than the one Lei Minghu and the others had, but it was also very spacious.
Lu Yuan also used wooden boards to separate the kang into two sides, one side for the dog to sleep on.
In the afternoon, when Han Ying and Lu Yuan had finished setting up the kang, Lu Yuan received a call from Professor Li.
Professor Li said that the base commander sent people to get the mutant seafood mushrooms and asked them to prepare them.
Hearing that someone was coming, Lu Yuan went downstairs and moved the car to the side so that it would be easier for the car to enter the yard later.
Their wall was built more than four meters high, with more than one meter long steel bar barbs inserted on it.
It was originally intended to prevent people from climbing in, but the sudden wind blades seemed to be blocked to some extent by this high wall.
It would be a huge project to transport several tons of steel bars from outside the wall by manpower.
Especially now that there are wind blades outside that may suddenly blow in at any time, it is better to stay away from the wall.
About half an hour later, a modified military truck stopped in front of their house.
Honk the horn to signal the person upstairs to come down and open the door.
When the three families on the second and third floors heard the horn, they all went to the windows and looked out.
Lu Yuan went downstairs to open the door. Han Ying looked down from the third floor and saw a human-shaped iron box moving down from the patrol car.
It really was an iron box, but there were a few small holes on the top of the box, which should be holes for viewing things and ventilation.
Two relatively large holes were also opened in the middle part, probably to make it easier for hands to be extended out.
Seeing the iron box, Han Ying, who was standing upstairs, almost laughed out loud.
It's obvious that this is used to guard against wind blades that may come from anywhere.
Lu Yuan's equipment was relatively simple. He wore a large hat that only exposed his eyes, and he also wore goggles outside his eyes.
He was wearing a thick military coat and black boots.
Although it seems that there is no equipment to protect against wind blades.
But in fact, the hat Lu Yuan wore was made of thermostatic fabric with anti-cutting function.
He was also wearing a thermostatic suit made of the same fabric, and even the socks on his feet were made of the same fabric.
The head-to-toe constant temperature clothing not only keeps you warm, but also protects you from wind blade attacks.
If you are accidentally hit by the wind blade, it is only the outer clothes that will be damaged, but the inner clothes will not be injured.
Although the chance of encountering wind blades inside the wall is relatively small, Lu Yuan is still fully armed just in case.
Lu Yuan opened the door of the wall, and the human-shaped iron box moved towards this side.
When Lu Yuan saw the iron box, he was stunned for a moment, but then he heard a sound coming from inside the iron box.
"Comrade Lu, what should we do with the steel bars in the car?"
There were too many steel bars on the truck, and one or two people couldn't unload them.
"Xinghe? Just drive the car in and unload it in the yard."
Lu Yuan heard that the person in the iron box was Zhuang Xinghe, so he pointed to the space vacant after he moved the car just now.
"good."
Zhuang Xinghe didn't expect that Lu Yuan could recognize him even through an iron box after he only said one sentence.
He responded and returned to the car.
He turned the car around and backed it in. From the rearview mirror he could see a layer of firewood on the ground in the yard.
I think he should be asked to unload the steel bars on the pile of firewood to prevent the steel bars from damaging the ground.
After unloading, it looked quite spectacular, except that most of it was old and there were still a lot of cement chips that hadn't been knocked clean off.
But these were knocked off the collapsed concrete slabs, and there was nothing we could do about it.
After unloading the steel bars, in order to avoid being attacked by wind blades outside, the two went directly to the living room on the first floor.
Lu Yuan wanted to invite Zhuang Xinghe to go up and warm himself by the fire, but he refused.
"I can't stay here for long. The temperature is too low. Once the car is turned off, it will be hard to start. I have to leave after I get my things."
Zhuang Xinghe had already taken down the iron box and handed a file bag to Lu Yuan.
It was freezing outside and Zhuang Xinghe felt like he was about to lose feeling in his legs and feet.
He really wanted to go upstairs to warm himself by the fire and drink a cup of hot water, but the car outside couldn't wait.
"Okay, let's meet again if we have a chance."
Lu Yuan took the file bag and handed a bag to Zhuang Xinghe.
Inside the bag is a small planting pot, and in the soil there are three small mutant seafood mushrooms.
"must."
Zhuang Xinghe took the bag, turned around and was about to cover himself with the iron box again.
"Wait a moment."
Han Ying came down the stairs and heard what they said.
"I went out to exchange for a lot of good stuff a while ago. I'll share some with you. It's too cold. You can use them when you get on the bus."
Han Ying handed a big bag to Zhuang Xinghe who was about to cover the iron box.
