#243 - Chapter 243 Something Happened
Qin Jin, sitting in his office, pulled out a document to review.
It was the current personnel list for the branch base.
With the recent influx of survivors slowing down, they weren't as eager for talent as they had been at the beginning.
Unless they were truly industry leaders or experts, most of the newly arrived professionals were assigned as Level 2 personnel and placed in residential areas.
Then they could join the branch base's construction teams.
Currently, most of the new survivors lacked specialized skills and were classified as Level 0 personnel.
They only had a limited grain trading quota, unlike Level 1 and Level 2 personnel who had priority trading rights.
Green Origin still had an unlimited demand for supplies, but it was foreseeable that once the branch base was completed, the trade of supplies for grain might decrease!
This situation urged the unranked survivors to obtain a rank as soon as possible.
And the current method was to find the supplies with higher value listed on Green Origin's list...
Gunpowder, brass, rare metals, machine tools, special equipment, and so on...
The method had been given, and it was up to everyone to choose.
The entire Mentang Town could be described as a mixed bag.
After the survivors from various places arrived, there had been several incidents of mutual occupation of residential areas.
Naturally, these were suppressed by Green Origin's combat troops, and those who acted first were directly eliminated without hesitation!
At the same time, Qin Jin had been paying close attention to the movements of zombies in Fenghe County and the surrounding cities.
To see if such a large number of personnel movements would cause another wave of zombies to strike.
Fortunately, helicopters and patrol teams were frequently dispatched to scout the surrounding areas, and there had been no signs of this.
Since the previous cleanup of hundreds of thousands of zombies in Fenghe County, the number of zombies appearing in Mentang Town had decreased recently.
Recently, not only had the construction of the branch base and the manpower situation developed as expected, but other aspects had also made significant progress.
The coal trade in Shanshi had initially stabilized, and more than 300 tons of raw coal could be obtained every three days, which would naturally be arranged for personnel to refine, filter, and store.
Then there was the Zhushi oil base, where fuel refining had also stabilized.
After this period of proficiency, the daily output barely increased to 15 tons.
Although it was still very poor, it was better than nothing.
As for the original thousands of tons of fuel, it had naturally been arranged for team members to transport it back to the base for storage in several batches.
A new core defense circle had now been established at the oil base, not large, only a few thousand square meters, and the construction of the surrounding walls was being accelerated.
His requirements for that side were not high, and it would be enough to have walls of about 20 meters in the future. If it really couldn't be held, the main base would immediately provide support.
Qin Jin had sent someone to take a military radio, rare in the base, to them.
This high-power shortwave radio could theoretically transmit signals for thousands of kilometers!
Basically, it could cover the entire Hua Country!
Qin Jin was willing to let one go only after seeing that the oil base had stabilized recently.
You should know that the entire Green Origin base only had three of these treasures!
They were obtained from the Zhushi Military Region before.
He had also bought a lot of radios when hoarding goods before, but the power and stability were far from those of military radios.
They could only communicate at a distance of about several hundred kilometers.
After a period of time, when the geomagnetic anomaly arrived and the magnetic field of Blue Star was chaotic, the communication distance of commercial radios might be compressed to less than one hundred kilometers.
They could only be used as medium and short-range communication equipment.
It wouldn't be used for a while.
Then there was the situation of the two grain planting areas in the main base.
The rice planted in the ground greenhouses and on the first floor underground, under the careful care of Yuan Mu and many others, had grown to be more than half a leg tall!
It was no less than the growth in normal outdoor planting.
The rice fields in the ground greenhouse were 10 mu (previously reserved for planting corn and potatoes failed, now all changed to planting rice), and the underground first floor had 12 mu.
According to Yuan Mu's prediction, if this early rice continues to grow and mature normally, the yield per mu should reach 1000 jin! (Low-yield fields produce about 800 jin per mu, and high-yield fields produce about 1200 jin per mu)
That is, they can harvest about 11 tons of rice in a quarter!
After shelling and drying. (About 80% of the weight remains after shelling, and 13~15% of the water is reduced after drying. Rice husks can be fed to poultry.)
About 8 tons of high-quality rice can be obtained!
If they harvest normally for 3 seasons a year (away from light, using plant lights can theoretically harvest three seasons), they will get 24 tons of rice!
According to an adult's consumption of 100 kilograms of rice a year (1 jin of rice can cook several jin of rice)
That is, it can feed 240 people!
Of course, there is no problem in feeding the people in the main base. After removing the share of about 100 people in the main base, only less than 150 people can be allocated to the branch base.
Even if there are no Level 4-5 personnel now, there will not be too many in the future, but this output alone is not enough to feed the hundreds of people in the future branch base!
Not to mention those Level 1-2-3 personnel who need to trade!
The establishment of a planting area for the branch base is imperative!
Moreover, the originally planned branch base was only 50,000 square meters, but now it seems that it is not enough. Qin Jin is already planning to increase the area by another double!
At least build a 50 mu (33,300 square meters) staple food planting area, increasing the annual output by nearly 50 tons!
This is the only way to maintain a long-term food supply!
In addition to establishing planting areas, this expanded part can also be used to prepare warehouses for important supplies.
In the leader's office.
Qin Jin rubbed his sore eyes. He had been working hard for the development of the base recently. Even with his superhuman physique, he felt a little tired.
To be honest, he didn't expect the Green Origin base to develop so much before.
At the beginning, he just wanted to create a small paradise, with strong force, a self-sufficient food cycle, and a relatively stable living environment.
Unexpectedly, with the increase of materials and personnel, the main base he originally planned was not enough.
Even the branch base planned before the year, waiting for the absorption of useful professionals, the establishment of the personnel grading system, and the material transactions of foreign personnel, the entire Green Origin base quickly expanded to the extent that the previous plan could not accommodate it!
Although he is a reborn person, he is just an "ordinary person".
Even if he thought about it carefully before, the changes in the situation still exceeded expectations.
As for letting him give up the opportunity to continue to develop and grow?
It's already impossible.
Humans are like this. When they don't have something, they think they will be satisfied when they have it, but when they really have it, they want to have more.
Qin Jin is now like this.
He wants to make Green Origin even stronger!
So strong that no one can threaten them!
"Huff."
"Come on! I can do it!"
Putting down the information in his hand, he stretched and relaxed slightly, and also cheered himself up.
Knock knock knock.
Suddenly, a burst of rapid knocking sounded.
He didn't think too much and casually said come in.
Then he saw Zhao Ling walk into the office with a slightly anxious expression and quickly said:
"President Qin, something happened outside!"
"A lot of people are sick!"
