#3 - Chapter 3 Building a Base

The last two days of April.

Qin Jin directly spent money to hire people to handle various matters related to registering the company.

With money, everything becomes much simpler.

There are various specialized teams that can provide services.

As long as the money is in place, many things can go smoothly.

The company is registered as Green Origin.

Its main business is agricultural product trade and processing, with some other businesses attached, which are still being handled by specialists.

He placed the company address in Guangyuan City, next to Shenzhen.

It is nearly 200 kilometers away from Shenzhen, which is not far.

This is also where his ancestral home is, so he can be considered somewhat familiar with it.

In addition, the terrain is indeed good, which will be explained later.

Guangyuan City is located in the central part of Guangnan Province, with an economy that is in the lower-middle range within the province, mainly based on agriculture and tourism.

In recent years, many manufacturing enterprises have settled in, mainly because Shenzhen's development land is insufficient, and many companies have moved to the surrounding areas of Shenzhen.

Qin Jin chose the factory site in Mentang Town, Fenghuo County, Guangyuan City.

More than 20 kilometers north of the town is a large mountain range, which can naturally serve as a barrier.

In addition, Guangyuan City's land is still fertile, and the planting industry has always been good, with sufficient river water sources and many mountain forests, and multiple expressways converge in Mentang Town.

Most importantly, it is not too far from Qin Jin's old home.

When he was a child, his parents took him to play here, which is better than other completely unfamiliar places.

To set up a factory, you still need certain connections, and his father also has some resources in this area.

As the saying goes, money makes the world go round.

Under Qin Jin's slogan of an estimated investment of over 100 million, he signed various contracts and agreements with the local investment promotion office in just a few days.

The investment promotion office finally encountered such an enterprise with a certain investment scale to settle in, and the policies given were in place.

They directly approved a piece of land that Qin Jin liked (30,000 square meters) for free use for 5 years, and subsequent rent will be collected according to the tax situation.

After confirming the land.

Qin Jin immediately began looking for a professional design company.

He explained the general plan and requirements from before and asked the design company to start designing directly according to the requirements.

A professional construction team is also being sought simultaneously.

Don't look for acquaintances, don't look for small companies, directly bid from other places to find well-known construction companies.

To prevent some unnecessary troubles, which will be explained later.

There are still more than five months before the apocalypse.

There is no need to rush to hoard food and supplies, even if you hoard them, there is no place, so the current focus is on building the lair.

During this time, Qin Jin also traveled back and forth between the design company and the builder day and night, repeatedly deliberating on the details.

The construction price soared due to his special design requirements.

Although he has nearly 90 million in hand, he still has to keep a large sum for purchasing supplies after the base is built, and the actual funds that can be used for construction are estimated to be around 50 million!

Of course, commercial loans are already being prepared, there's no harm in using them.

Later, when the company has certain material assets, it can be mortgaged for the last time.

But not now.

As for the money from the previous loan, the ones chosen at that time were basically those that could be repaid in half a year.

Now you only need to pay a certain amount of interest each month.

Why pay back the money earned by strength?

Other loans and mortgages are similar, and I don't plan to redeem the mortgaged house, although the selling price may be higher.

But after deducting some handling fees and taxes, it won't be much more, and it will take a lot of time and manpower, it is better to find a few more news events to rush in the capital market. (Currently, I don't have this plan, the funds on hand are enough to start the plan, focusing on building the base)

The land where the Green Origin factory is located is one of the key areas promoted by the Investment Promotion Bureau recently.

This plot of land is a newly established industrial construction site by the district government, used to attract investment.

The land has already been leveled and can be put into construction at any time.

The factory is expected to cover an area of 30,000 square meters, which is 3 hectares.

It is initially divided into office area, experimental area, planting experimental area, ground warehouse, and factory area.

There are also some other dormitory areas, activity areas, ponds, etc.

The drawings Qin Jin gave to the construction team included two underground floors.

So the construction is more difficult.

Fortunately, the soil quality here is suitable.

Otherwise, the cost may be terrifyingly high.

——————

Time came to mid-May.

Various construction matters were finalized, and various approvals were obtained with money.

The first batch of 20 million was transferred to the construction team's public account.

Various large machines began to enter the site one after another, and the construction was in full swing.

Qin Jin wore a safety helmet, completed the groundbreaking ribbon-cutting ceremony, and urged the construction team to complete the project with guaranteed quality and quantity.

The basement is a very important part in the future, so he must personally supervise it.

The total area of the first underground floor is planned to be 10,000 square meters, not in the center of the factory, but located on the side, in a long strip shape.

The height of the high places is 4.5 meters - 5 meters, and the height of the lower places is 3 meters - 3.5 meters.

In the future, at least half of the area will be planned for underground grain planting.

Other areas will be separated and treated, and many storage rooms will be built, all with waterproof and moisture-proof treatment.

In the future, new air, dehumidification, refrigeration and other environmental supporting devices will be added.

Used for storing a large amount of dry grain.

Let me briefly introduce, the normal temperature storage time of ordinary rice is about 1 to 3 years, which is related to the temperature and humidity of various places.

Without the cheating device of space ring, the more grain you buy, the better.

You must know that there is a shortage of water and electricity in the last days, so don't think about building a cold storage of tens of thousands of cubic meters, unless you develop your own power station.

So in the later stage, we will mainly purchase paddy rice with husks.

Dehydrated rice that has been specially treated can be stored for more than 10 years under less harsh temperature and humidity conditions.

The amount of rice a normal adult eats in a day is about 1 catty, which is 0.5 catty of rice, and the annual consumption is about 100 kilograms (those with a large appetite are about 150 kilograms-200 kilograms).

That is, 10 people consume about 1 ton of rice a year. (Side dishes not included)

The space on the first underground floor is mainly used for planting and storing materials.

Therefore, waterproofing, moisture-proof, fire prevention, ventilation, and earthquake resistance are all key points.

No sloppiness is allowed!

There will also be multiple warehouses of 50 square meters or 100 square meters, which can store a lot of materials.

Even if there is a problem with a certain warehouse, it can avoid affecting others.

Reduce risk.

A second underground floor will also be built.

The second underground floor is deeper and must be deep enough to ignore ordinary aerial bombs.

Even the depth of a small nuclear bomb is at least 25 meters.

The planned area is 8,000 square meters, which is smaller than the first floor.

The same three-proof and three-resistance treatment.

It is mainly used to store some more hidden materials, spare grain warehouses, weapons warehouses, special closed laboratories, etc.

Some weapons are not easy to get before the end of the world, but they also need to be planned in advance.

According to the current earthwork work on the market, the price of digging a cubic meter of earth and stone is about 20 yuan.

Fortunately, the soil in this area is still good, and Qin Jin also asked someone to explore the underground in advance, and there are not many large stones, otherwise he would have to look for another place.

The project is huge.

Underground is under construction, and the ground is not idle, some construction operations can be carried out simultaneously.

Although there are still more than five months, the time is still tight. In order to urge the construction party to speed up the progress, Qin Jin even overpaid, just to speed up the construction progress.

A 50x50x40 pond (reservoir) will be built on the edge of the factory, which can store 100,000 tons of water, which is an important water resource point in the last days.

The interior is reinforced with cement, and the edges have embankments and walking ladders. Various suitable fish will be farmed in it in the later stage.

A smaller pond (pool) with an area of 30x30x30 will be built in the center of the factory, which can store 27,000 tons of water.

The same various reinforcement treatments, breeding some aquatic products such as fish, shrimp and crabs.

The two ponds alone cost Qin Jin 2 million.

Water source is a material as important as grain in the last days, and the more the better.

Even so.

When Qin Jin proposed this design, the design company repeatedly verified it with him several times.

Finally, under Qin Jin's strong request, he agreed.

Everyone finds it strange to build two large pools in a factory.

The surrounding wall to be built around the factory is 5 meters high.

Full enclosure design, the wall is 1 meter thick, and the interior is three layers of steel bars pouring high-strength cement.

You must know that ordinary grenades can only collapse 70mm thick ordinary walls.

Under this 1000mm reinforced thickness wall, even rocket launchers have to go around. (Just kidding, multiple hits on the same part are still likely to penetrate)

When the designer and the construction team heard this request, they were almost frightened.

They looked at Qin Jin like ghosts, fearing that he was not sober after eating too much.

After repeated confirmation.

It was determined that the customer really intended to design like this, and in view of the money, they no longer asked more questions.

Including the various designs that seemed like Arabian Nights to them later, they didn't bother to ask any more questions, as long as the regulations allowed, they would do it.

Even if it slightly exceeds the regulations, seeing that Qin Jin has cleared the relationship and the money is in place, just continue to do it.

If there is a problem in the future, you can blame the employer for asking for it.

Rich customers are God, and customers without money are just dogs.

Go back to where you came from.

In the edge area of the factory, an underground oil depot was also built.

Specially invite professional personnel to decorate, thousands of square meters, 5 meters high, can store at least 5,000 cubic meters of oil, which is more than 5,000 tons of fuel.

The inside is also separated into multiple areas to facilitate the classification of different grades of fuel.

In the future, a gas station can be set up on the ground, and the fuel under the bottom can be directly extracted after connecting the pipeline, so fire and electricity prevention must be done well here.

Then there is a house for future self-occupation, a three-story building.

The exterior is ordinary, but the actual wall is reinforced with special steel plates, covering an area of 200 square meters, including a gym, tea room, billiard room, and reception room.

The house also has a basement, 100 square meters on the first floor, with a relaxation area and a secret storage room, which can directly connect to the first and second underground floors.

There is also a secret passage that can lead to a secret room deeper underground.

This secret room is less than 100 square meters, with a bathroom, toilet, and bedroom. There will be many shelves inside for storing materials in the future.

At the same time, do a good job of hidden ventilation and exhaust to the outside, as well as electricity and water.

This is the last trump card, and it will not be used unless it is absolutely necessary.

The deep secret room alone cost nearly three million funds.
