#206 - Chapter 206 Silent Development
January 28th.
More than half a month has passed since the last grain robbery in Residential Area 1.
Since lending grain to these survivors, they have calmed down.
Nothing has happened in the last two weeks.
Although they are still not eating their fill, at least the risk of starvation is gone.
This afternoon.
At the Green Origin Biochemical Laboratory. (The one for Zhou Qihang)
Qin Jin had just finished an experiment with Zhou Qihang.
Practical Skills +10.
"President Qin, you are truly the smartest person I have ever met! No joke! Your learning speed is amazing! In less than two months, you have mastered most of the basic knowledge in this field! And you can already complete some simple experiments on your own!"
Zhou Qihang said sincerely.
This President Qin is truly incredible!
If he had told him that he had been exposed to these subjects before, he would not have been so surprised.
But judging from the previous situation, this leader has really progressed from scratch to his current level!
"Not at all. I can barely do some simple experiments now, and there is still a lot of knowledge I don’t understand."
Qin Jin said with a smile, feeling good.
Of course, he knew that his learning speed was amazing. With his seemingly evolved brainpower, he had an impression of many subject books after reading them once. Not only that, but his thinking speed was also astonishing. He quickly integrated all kinds of knowledge.
If he didn't care about academic qualifications and experience, he would already be considered a junior researcher.
The kind with certain practical skills.
"Okay, let's call it a day. We'll study the principles and mechanisms of zombie movement when we catch a 'live' zombie for the next project."
Qin Jin took the initiative to end today's study.
Recently, the two of them have done a lot of experiments, studying the flesh and blood of zombie corpses preserved in the base. Although it is not a breakthrough, they have obtained a lot of useful information.
This discipline is indeed the most direct discipline for unraveling the mystery of zombies in the apocalypse.
They found that the virus in the zombie's body would not quickly lose its activity after death, but would only become less active, like falling into a dormant state.
But once it encounters fresh flesh and blood, it will be activated immediately!
Ordinary 100°C high temperature cannot quickly kill them.
It needs to be heated to a temperature exceeding 300°C to accelerate the time to kill them.
They used some white mice found before for experiments and found that the liquid made by grinding zombie flesh and blood mixed with water into the white mice would quickly zombify them!
The result was not too surprising.
Zombie movies in the past basically explained it this way, and their experiments this time only confirmed this again.
Recently, the heavy snow has closed the city, and Qin Jin is too lazy to order the combat team to go out and catch zombies for him, otherwise he can see what is different about live zombies.
Well.
This is not urgent.
When his knowledge and professionalism continue to become stronger, doing these experiments again may have different discoveries and gains.
There are still a lot of mutated zombie flesh and blood lying in the private laboratory on the second basement floor.
He is not willing to take it out for experiments yet, nor does he want Zhou Qihang to study it.
Studying the flesh and blood of ordinary zombies in this ground laboratory is already the greatest tolerance he has for Zhou Qihang.
And he strictly ordered him to be very careful and not cause infection within the base.
Otherwise, he would definitely not be soft-hearted.
Zhou Qihang naturally knew that the Green Origin leader was not joking.
Qin Jin returned to his office.
He is checking the various data reported by the base's departments recently.
Since reducing personnel outings in December, everyone has basically stayed in the base to do other work.
Needless to say, the combat department and the security department, they mainly continue to enhance their strength and the safety of the base. Recently, Qin Jin also personally verified their strength. It can be said that they have made considerable progress compared to before.
29 combat team members (one died), now each of them can fight three or four zombies without using firearms, wearing protective gear, and relying on cold weapons!
If they use firearms, in some open areas, they even have the confidence to solve more than ten zombies alone!
You must know that the current zombies are very different from the beginning!
Even if ordinary survivors outside have weapons such as machetes, there is a risk of solving one, and two basically have to turn around and run away.
More than three?
Don't hesitate.
If you run slowly, your life will be lost.
Now they have made considerable progress in strength, skill, judgment, and courage.
Two months of high-intensity scientific exercise, coupled with adequate dietary supplements, is no joke.
Even the two female team members, Yao Lei and Zhou Xin, have developed 6-pack abs and shark lines!
Not to mention those men.
As for the security team members, they are a little worse.
Of course, this is also because of the different functions, and Qin Jin's requirements for them are also different.
Being able to skillfully operate various weapons, shoot accurately, be strong and strong, and resolutely execute orders is about the same.
In the future, they will continue to improve as time goes by.
Then there is the key production department.
Since Lin Runwei joined, Dong Hui's team has been injected with vitality and has made breakthroughs in many technical bottlenecks.
The initial daily output of less than 2,000 rounds of bullets has recently increased to a breakthrough of 10,000 rounds per day after continuous improvement and optimization!
Absolutely immediate results!
Otherwise, Qin Jin would not have approved the combat team and security team members to conduct some shooting training frequently, which is quite expensive.
At the same time, they are also optimizing TNT bombs and developing other types of landmines. When they mature in the future, they may be able to lay landmine belts outside the base!
If it really works, it's exciting to think about the picture!
Not only that, as the base's production department, they certainly do more than just produce bullets.
Recently, they have also started the research and development of guns. With the various machine tools pulled back before, as well as the information retrieved from the military region during the peaceful period and some time ago, self-developed guns have become possible.
It is said that the first Green Origin-made gun will be launched soon!
Not to mention other cold weapons, gun repairs, and various production tools, they basically have the ability to manufacture them.
Dong Hui, a talent who has managed large-scale chemical plants, not only knows chemistry-related matters, but also has shown extremely strong adaptability in production management. Coupled with the addition of Lin Runwei, a mechanical talent, and Wang Bin's assistance, the entire production department can be said to have been greatly strengthened.
Then there is another important planting department.
Compared with the previous good news, the planting department is much inferior.
Since sowing a lot of crops two months ago, the growth situation to date has been very general. Wheat has grown unevenly for some reason, and it is estimated that it cannot be effectively harvested. Other potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes are slightly better, but the estimated yield is also lower than expected.
The main grain crops sown throughout the winter have not shown a gratifying side.
It seems that most of the crops that are more adapted to the northern climate cannot be harvested normally even with plant lights.
We can only pin our hopes on the early rice situation in the upcoming spring.
Of course, in addition to the main grain, other vegetables, melons and fruits have been harvested well.
Perhaps it is because of the cold weather, some Chinese cabbage, carrots and other fruits and vegetables in the greenhouse are growing very well.
Recently, everyone has praised the base canteen for its rich variety of dishes.
There are also some oranges, grapefruits, bananas, papayas, sugar cane, and guavas that have more or less fruited.
The entire base basically does not lose too much to the peaceful period in terms of diet.
