Chapter 112 Biodiesel
Yu Duoduo and Xie Yun did not rush to salvage supplies. Instead, they walked around the looted factory buildings and checked the types of factories one by one.
First find out what industry the factory is involved in, so that you can figure out what goods are in the warehouse, and then decide whether to go into the water to collect such materials.
Most of the factories have their own brand names hung on the roofs, such as "XX Clothing Factory", "XX Shoe Factory", etc., and only some of the brands were submerged underwater.
Of course, the new energy company that produces biodiesel is also among them.
This company is the primary target of today's trip, so naturally we have to go down and investigate first. As usual, because of Duoduo's diving, Xie Yun is keeping watch on the boat.
Yu Duoduo has already locked the location of the factory on the offline map. There are six large warehouses behind the factory, arranged in an orderly manner.
She thought that if this was all biodiesel, as long as the generator could still hold up, the 12th floor would not have to worry about power outages for many years to come.
Yu Duoduo was the first to open the window of the warehouse closest to the factory and swam inside. In the huge warehouse, huge crimson oil drums were neatly stacked.
She leaned closer to check the label on the oil barrel, which said a certain brand of industrial lubricant.
It was not biodiesel, Yu Duoduo was a little disappointed, but he put all the oil drums in the warehouse into the space without leaving any.
She only knew that this thing could be used in cars as a lubricant to reduce mechanical friction. As for other things, she couldn't think of it for the time being, but after all, it was a material that could no longer be produced in the short term after the end of the world.
After that, he entered the space to catch his breath for two minutes and continued to swim towards the warehouse behind.
The second and third warehouses next door were still filled with slightly smaller plastic barrels, labeled with a certain brand of vegetable asphalt and a certain brand of amino acid liquid fertilizer.
Yu Duoduo included them all into the space.
It was not until we swam into the fourth warehouse that the fifth and sixth ones began to produce biodiesel.
I have to say, the quantity is quite large, all packed in plastic bottles similar to automobile motor oil, each bottle is 2L.
Yu Duoduo estimated the amount that the 12th floor could handle, so he only left about half of the warehouse's worth of diesel, and stored the rest into the space.
Even though biodiesel is a renewable energy source, it will be a less and less energy source in the end times where the living environment is extreme.
Yu Duoduo held a bottle in each hand and swam upstream.
"Found it! Biodiesel!" As soon as Yu Duoduo's head emerged from the water, he shouted happily to Xie Yun.
Xie Yun pulled Yu Duoduo onto the speedboat to check if she was injured.
After being underwater for such a long time, he almost thought that she had encountered some accident. He had to bring a full set of diving equipment with him when he went out next time!
"Look, bottles this big take up half of the warehouse. I estimate that even if we fill up all the remaining empty rooms on the 12th floor, we still won't be able to store them all."
Yu Duoduo put the diesel bottle in his hand in front of Xie Yun and showed it to him.
"Okay, then go back and tell the others to come early tomorrow to salvage the diesel."
Xie Yun was not very interested in the large number of factories and warehouses here. After driving the speedboat around just now, he had already roughly figured out the types of factories.
Three food processing factories, three shoe manufacturing factories, two garment factories, a textile factory, two light steel factories, a lead plate factory, three chip factories, and a latex products factory.
Yu Duoduo rested her hands on the side of the speedboat, breathing heavily to rest. Diving was really hard! She was really tired!
Xie Yun took out a bag of dried durian and a bottle of mineral water from his backpack and handed them to her.
“Eat a little. Durian has enough sugar to restore your strength.
There is no rush to find supplies in the water. It has been more than a month since the end of the world, and no one has touched anything in the warehouse.
We didn’t know what was happening underwater, but we didn’t have any diving or salvage equipment. This was an advantage for us!
Besides, we have already stockpiled most of our supplies. Do you have any extra space to store the large amount of supplies underwater?"
Yu Duoduo was speechless for a moment.
According to their previous rounds of hoarding methods, her rooms should have been full long ago. If she continued to move supplies in unscrupulously, Xie Yun would definitely suspect that there was something wrong.
This is also the reason why Xie Yun has always maintained a low desire to go out and stock up on supplies.
His house was already about 70% full with supplies originally purchased for the living standard of two people before the natural disaster. If it were not for non-essential items, he really didn't want to take risks by going out again.
This is also largely related to the fact that Xie Yun only survived in the apocalypse for half a year in his previous life, and his experience in the apocalypse was too short.
After his death, it was impossible to imagine how dire the situation at the end of the world would be just by listening to what Yu Duoduo said.
After all, Yu Duoduo has a survivor bias. The reason why she was able to survive for two years in the apocalypse is inseparable from luck and strength. The scenes she described may not even one thousandth of reality.
But the problem now is that they can find abundant supplies, but have nowhere to store them!
But she was certain that as long as the people on the 12th floor could live long enough, if they really chose to ignore the supplies they had searched for because there was nowhere to store them, they would regret it one hundred and ten percent in the future!
Because supplies will only become less and less.
Yu Duoduo has a huge portable space, so she naturally doesn't have any worries in this regard. In order to avoid regrets, she always maintains the attitude of collecting everything that should be collected.
It is indeed time to think of a way to expand their storage space, but Yu Duoduo has no idea how to do it yet.
In the chaotic end of the world, there is no absolutely safe place except her space.
“Although we have enough, the others on the 12th floor don’t have enough.
These food processing factories might be able to make up for the food shortage of the two companies, and these clothing factories might be able to make some preparations for the extreme cold..."
As Yu Duoduo spoke, she glanced in the direction of the factories. Even if it wasn't for the other people on the 12th floor, she wanted to collect all these supplies for herself.
Judging from the current situation, no one has come to salvage the supplies here. In the near future, the dam upstream of Huijiang River will burst, and there will be a sudden increase in water level.
By then, the water level will suddenly double, and the water pressure will be more than what it is now. It will be almost impossible to go into the water to salvage.
In the future, there will be a swarm of rats wreaking havoc. As the rats pass through the area, she is not sure whether these supplies can remain intact in the warehouse.
Rather than letting the harmful rat get away with it, it would be better to keep it in the space. Maybe it can be used to exchange for other supplies in the future.
