Chapter 151 Collecting Steel



Jiang Ning called Zheng Weili, "The drought-resistant sweet potatoes have been grown, are you still going to plant them?"

The growth cycle of sweet potatoes is four or five months, and the water level will recede in one or two months at most, so it's useless to plant them.

Nothing can stop Zheng Weili from going home, "Aning, you guys plant them."

After everyone left, Jiang Ning discussed, "How about planting them in the space?"

Planting them outside requires constant care, fearing that they will die from the sun and need to be watered every day, and moving them back and forth is really troublesome.

Huo Yishen thought about it, "Plant half of each?"

The soil in the space is good. If the plants are different from those outside, taking them out for trading will cause unnecessary trouble.

Plant half of each, and you can compare them.

Jiang Ning had no objection.

So the two divided the work and cooperated, Huo Yishen planted the outside, and Jiang Ning planted the inside of the space.

After dinner, Huo Yishen sent Doudou and Kele away from the next door. He discussed with Jiang Ning, "The water level has dropped to the fourth floor. Soon there will be survivors going out to find supplies. Let's go out tomorrow?"

1803 didn't have diving suits, so it was useless to call them. Besides, they had already decided to leave and couldn't go out to find unnecessary supplies.

Jiang Ning had no objection and took out the paper map and the offline map on his mobile phone.

Hong Yan softened the foundation of the house, the extreme cold made the house material brittle, and the extreme heat made the house expand...

After the ice melted, some houses with shallow foundations or old and dilapidated houses collapsed, not to mention that a major earthquake would devastate the entire city. The most important thing to rebuild a home is steel.

Fengcheng does not produce steel, but it has Steel World, which integrates processing, procurement, and trade. It is the largest steel market in the country, radiating the entire coastal city.

After discussing, the two went to bed early, and at the same time, they did not forget to say hello to 1803, saying that they were going out for a walk.

Doudou was taken care of by Coke, and the two could only stay at home and play for a day.

Not to mention Doudou, even Coke has learned to press the intercom, and if there is something, just shout into the intercom.

The extremely hot day dawned very early, and it was already light before five o'clock.

In order not to attract attention, the two got up at three in the morning and went downstairs quietly.

Steel World is on the outskirts of the city, more than 40 kilometers away.

The two put on constant temperature protective clothing, paddled the assault boat out of the community, and started the motor to head to the suburbs.

The water surface of the suburbs was full of garbage, and there were unknown dangers under the water. The two did not dare to drive too fast, and it took two hours to arrive.

There were no residential buildings or commercial houses nearby. As the water level dropped, the upper half of the "Steel World" sign was vaguely revealed on the water surface, looking dilapidated in the hazy morning light.

The huge rusty iron frame was hung with trusses, no longer as magnificent and glorious as before the natural disaster.

At that time, the sky was about to dawn, and the vision was not particularly clear.

With the cover of the huge billboard, Jiang Ning took out the diving suit and oxygen cylinder from the space.

The diving suit is completely closed, and it seems a bit heavy to carry an oxygen tank. Fortunately, I usually do physical exercise, otherwise it would be a bit too much.

After entering the water, Jiang Ning put the assault boat into the space.

Turning on the searchlight on the forehead, the two dived underwater...

The steel world is huge, covering an area of ​​5,000 to 6,000 acres, and there are even more types of steel, wear-resistant, drop-resistant, weather-resistant, bendable, H-shaped steel, channel steel, angle steel, I-beam, composite steel and hundreds of other varieties.

The shops are all hundreds of square meters, and the big ones are even thousands of square meters, with an annual processing capacity of 20 million tons.

There are too many steels, and it's dazzling.

It was impossible to go all in, so we could only stock up on steel, steel pipes and steel bars.

After finding the steel bar store, Jiang Ning swam up carefully, holding the top steel bar and trying to put it into the space.

The steel bar is very heavy, and a roll of round steel bar can weigh about 1-2 tons.

Jiang Ning was still worried that he couldn't put it in, but he succeeded easily.

Huo Yishen was guarding her beside her. In addition to paying attention to her safety, he also had to be wary of dangers around her.

The coiled steel bars from several shops were neatly piled up in the Black Soil Garden, one after another...

The underwater pressure was strong. Jiang Ning didn't feel it at first, but the goods were large and heavy. She began to feel tired after half an hour. Her energy was rapidly depleted. For safety reasons, she had to go into the space to rest.

Huo Yishen handed her a quick energy-replenishing waffle and chocolate, and helped her relax her hands and feet, "Take a break."

Knowing the space and time constraints, he didn't have a moment to spare. Seeing that the living room was empty, he moved a bed from the garden.

Well, he was good at choosing, and he moved a 2-meter bed.

Judging from the brand, it was a luxury bed worth six figures.

His eye for mattresses is even better than his eye for girlfriends, and he also bought a six-digit latex mattress.

Huo Yishen laid out the bedding and said to Jiang Ning intimately, "Go upstairs and take a nap."

He was reluctant to rest, so he went to the fields to help with the work. Seeing that the watermelons she planted were ripe, he picked a dozen and put them back.

After eating, drinking and resting enough, the two of them dived into the water again to continue collecting things.

Steel sections, steel pipes, and thin tendons for winding.

This collection took several hours. The sunlight on the water surface was dazzling, and light kept shining into the water...

Supplies had to be stored, but rest was also necessary.

At noon, the two of them ate braised fish, boiled beef, vegetables, and freshly picked watermelons.

In a corner of the garden, countless steel materials were piled up. The exact amount was unknown, but it was estimated to be about eight or nine hundred tons.

Based on a 420-square-meter building, one floor would require about 12 tons of steel bars. The goods the two men collected could build several buildings.

Huo Yishen said, "That should be enough."

Jiang Ning then stopped his frantic hands, lay down on the luxurious big bed, hugged the pillow and took a peaceful nap.

Huo Yishen was like an old buffalo. He not only harvested the watermelons, but also weeded the crops.

If he did more, Jiang Ning could rest more.

If Jiang Ning hadn't woken up from his nap and planned to leave, he could have worked for another three days and three nights.

There were other materials to be collected. The two men had no attachment to the countless steel materials and swam upwards in their diving suits.

Suddenly, a shadow approached quickly.

Huo Yishen was the first to notice it, and he pulled Jiang Ning to the side to evade quickly.

The water was turbid, so it was not very clear, but judging from the shadow, it was quite large.

Oh my god, it couldn't be a shark, could it?

Jiang Ning's alarm bells immediately rang, and he was considering whether to take out a weapon or hide in space, but the shadow didn't attack the two of them, but swam leisurely...

When they got a little closer, they found that it was a white shadow.

Baiji!

An endangered protected animal, it occasionally mistakenly enters the Guangdong estuary, swims along the river to Fengcheng, and then the Animal Protection Association takes great pains to guide it to turn around and escort it all the way back to the river mouth.

This time, there are no staff to escort them.

The water level kept dropping. If they didn't return in time, they would be stranded and become food on the plate sooner or later.

Jiang Ning was not interested in torture, but still hoped that the lovely guys could survive. As

long as they are alive, there will be more hope for mankind, right?

After watching the baiji leave, the two swam behind a large billboard. There was indeed no one around who had come ashore.

The afternoon sun was the hottest. As soon as they came out of the water, they immediately went into a high-temperature steamer. They were wet, hot and sticky.

However, while changing clothes, hot sweat kept coming out.

The two quickly changed into constant temperature clothes, then put on protective clothing, and did not forget to add ice water bags to cool down. They drove the assault boat to the next destination...
