Chapter 19 The Ambition of the Construction Captain

   "Master woo woo, you have come to find me."

   The woo woo in front of me was the sound of the pulley running over the concrete floor.

   After returning to the surface, Chu Guang first went to the third floor of the sanatorium.

  I was going to ask Xiaoqi to find out the situation, but before I got to the window, I saw the wastepaper basket leaning towards me pitifully.

  Chu Guang looked at it with a dazed expression, wondering what happened to it.

"what happened to you?"

   "Little Qi has only one battery left."

  嗐.

   What do you think?

and many more……

  Chu Guang: "Where can I find a place to charge you?"

  Xiaoqi: "I have a wireless charging port on my body, so I can just stay in the shelter for a while!"

  Chu Guang: "..."

   It's no wonder that I didn't see a single socket in the shelter, and the computer without a mainframe on the table never saw no power. It's all high-tech.

  Although wireless charging is not really high-tech, it is.

   Picking up the wastepaper basket-shaped robot, Chu Guang walked downstairs.

   Obediently put away the pulley at the bottom, Xiao Qi suddenly said.

   "That's right, master."

   "What happened again."

   "I suddenly remembered that the power system of the shelter seems to be powered by a nuclear fusion core."

   "Nuclear fusion?"

   "Well, so the electricity inside will last a long time."

   "Oh, that's a good thing." Chu Guang was already thinking about how to steal the electricity inside.

   Xiaoqi continued.

   "Although, this may not be a good thing."

   His thoughts were interrupted by this sentence, and Chu Guang, who was going down the stairs, stopped.

"What's the meaning?"

   "Because it's already 2340 years, it's been a long, long time since the shelter was built..."

What? !

  Chu Guang asked hurriedly.

   "What happens if the electricity runs out?"

  However, Xiao Qi's answer made him almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

"do not know."

"do not know???"

   Such an important question, you are so arrogant that you don’t know!

   Isn't there an emergency plan? ? ?

  Xiao Qi said cautiously.

   "Because according to the plan... this sanctuary was supposed to open a hundred years ago, but I don't know why it was delayed by a whole century."

  Chu Guang: "..."

   Seeing that Chu Guang didn't speak, Xiao Qi continued to whisper comfortably.

   "Actually, you don't need to be too pessimistic. The power room of Vault 404 should be on the third floor of the vault. As long as you unlock that floor and replace the fuel rods in time, it will be OK."

  Chu Guang almost couldn't hold back his spray.

   "Where am I going to get fusion fuel rods!"

   This is already 211 years of the Wasteland Era,

  Xiaoqi: "Uh, there will always be a way, right?"

  Chu Guang: "..."

  Anyway, don't put your breath on electronic products.

   That's too bad.

  Chu Guang put Xiaoqi next to the elevator and watched the wastepaper basket robot roll back.

   Feeling a little irritable.

   But Chu Guang also knew that it was useless to be anxious at this time, the problems had to be solved one by one.

In the short term, there shouldn't be too much of a problem with electricity. Even if the shelter is delayed by a century, there has been no work for the past century, and it should be running in energy-saving mode. Not sure.

   In contrast, the coming winter is more worthy of his nervousness.

   There is not much time left for him to prepare...

   Leave the nursing home.

  Chu Guang came to the cement kiln and found that the players were busy with energy and had already started the second cement kiln.

Next to   , eight mounds of charcoal were erected.

   This is to skip the agricultural era and jump directly to industrialization!

  Chu Guang was overjoyed.

  Thanks to my master's skills, the village is well managed!

  Looking at the oncoming manager, Lao Bai wiped the mud on his face, and was not excited at all like an adult in his twenties or thirties, but like a child, stood up and said.

   "Master Manager, you are here!"

   "Well, I went down just now... Are these your ideas?" Chu Guang asked, looking at the earthen cement kiln behind him.

   "It's everyone's credit!"

   "You don't have to be humble, I see it all in my eyes, and the organization will remember your credit!"

  Old Bai looked excited.

   Isn't that what he was waiting for!

   especially the second half of the sentence.

   "...In addition, on behalf of the organization, I will give each of you 1000 contribution points as a reward for unlocking cement building materials. And from now on, you will be the construction captain of the outpost of Vault 404!"

   "You are free to use your creativity to design and build our outpost within the scope of the plan."

   It would be great if a system prompt sound of "ding" could be heard at this time.

   That must be cool.

   Or, a pop-up window that shows a reward prompt in the eyes of the players is also good.

   But unfortunately, there are none.

  However, even this verbal promise and praise made Lao Bai flush with excitement.

   Merit!

Position!

   And, favorability!

   It seems that the hidden system of this game is richer than he imagined!

   "Dear Manager! I will do my best to build our home!"

   The other three players looked at him with envy.

  Although everyone has contribution points, it is obvious that the old white who got the position of "construction captain" is the real earner.

   You can freely use construction facilities. What kind of construction captain is this? He is clearly the director of the planning office of the Wasteland OL!

  The cow is bad!

   Looking at the energetic old Bai, Chu Guang nodded in approval and said.

   "Fine, now I need you to tell me your plan."

"Yes!"

   Laobai's waist was straight and he began to report.

  According to Lao Bai, after he went offline yesterday, he investigated the actual cement factory and asked the master in the factory, and learned that adding iron powder to the cement can get stronger and more durable cement.

   Talking about out-of-game content in the game seems to be automatically ignored by NPCs. Seeing that there is no response from the manager, Lao Bai went straight to the topic.

Considering that the waste soil is full of rusted steel, he mixed the collected rust with charcoal, used the latter as a reducing agent, made iron by calcining, and then mixed the smelted iron **** with plant ash cement. calcined together.

  In this way, although it seems to increase the production cost of cement, cement fired in this way can be used to make cement kilns that are more durable, high temperature resistant, and have a larger output.

   "It is impossible to produce large quantities of cement with only these earthen kilns, so I plan to put all the cement produced in the early stage into the construction of production facilities to further increase the output of cement!"

  Chu Guang nodded in approval.

   "That's a good idea, but... how much cement can be produced from the bark alone?"

   Just now Chu Guang had noticed that it was not only the pile of logs that had been cut down on the ground, but the bark of the trees near the sanatorium were almost bald by these survivors.

   Even the tree stumps were not spared!

  Obviously, Lao Bai has considered this question and answered confidently.

   "That's why we need a more professional cement kiln...the kind that can generate 1450 degrees! This way we can make calcium carbonate cement by firing limestone and clay, completely replacing the raw material for plant ash!"

   Plant ash cement containing potassium and sodium is not the most ideal building material, but a substitute when conditions do not allow it.

After    was appointed as the construction captain, Lao Bai suddenly had bigger ambitions.

   His eyes were no longer just a wall, or a sanatorium.

   but the whole wasteland.

   He wants to transform the world into what he thinks of it!

   "You have considered it comprehensively, so just do what you think."

  Chu Guang nodded, then looked at the other three players.

   "There will be two newcomers coming out of hibernation recently and joining our advance team. I plan to hold a small banquet to welcome them, so I need to get some game back... I can't invite them to porridge."

   After a pause, Chu Guang continued.

   "Who wants to go hunting with me."

As soon as the    voice fell, he raised his four hands.

  Chu Guang was stunned.

   Good guy, even the construction captain he just appointed raised his hand!

   "Cough, I don't need so many people... Ye Shi, come on, you are from the perception system."

   "Follow your orders! Mr. Manager!"

   Ye Shi gave an excited salute, and under the envious eyes of the three players, he swaggered to the side of the manager.

  Chu Guang looked at the other three players and said seriously.

   "Your mission is also very important. Cement is the top priority of the development of the outpost. There is enough wood for the time being, and the logging work can be stopped for a while. I need you to fully produce cement. Can you do it?"

  Although it was a pity that we couldn’t go out hunting with the manager, the three players obeyed his arrangement obediently.

   "Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

very good.

   worthy of being my appointed player!

  Chu Guang nodded with satisfaction, and walked towards the woods south of the sanatorium with Ye Shi, who was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth...
