My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! Chapter 1109: Fuel rods, lots of storage possibilities!
Latest URL: After waiting until it was almost dark, Sumo stepped out of the underground part of the Pingtan Shelter.
Discussing with Liehu to rebuild the western suburbs was unsuccessful.
This bald man looks silly, but he is actually much smarter than ordinary people.
Being able to become a manager and sitting in this position for more than ten years has not wavered, which already means that he will not give everything because of any plan or prospect.
As for the reason for the failure, it is also simple.
It's the same sentence.
In order to build infrastructure, there must be people or money.
The former flat beach shelter is still affordable, but the latter is like a bottomless pit.
No one is willing to take out the reserve materials and throw them into this hole before finding a new resource trading point.
Even Su Mo thought deeply and found that rebuilding the western suburbs was not the plan that should be done at this stage.
Horrible, they were all led astray by the idiot Liehu.
"At least until this winter is over, there is no need to worry about these things."
Crossing the warning wall in an airship, looking at the little sparks on the ground below, Su Mo thought about it thoughtfully.
In addition to the failure of the reconstruction plan, today's other gains are extremely rich.
Not only successfully borrowed 2,000 combat power from Pingtan, but also negotiated the supply of materials for the next three months, as well as some fragmented cooperation issues.
It doesn't really matter how much you can earn back. The important thing is to promote the circulation of the economy in the territory.
Once the money is in circulation, its growth rate will be unimaginably fast.
It is enough to foresee that after this winter, the first-generation residents in the territory will quickly become rich.
As for the news that Liehu said that nuclear power plants need fuel rods to start.
Parked the airship in front of the research institute, before Su Mo could enter, he saw Lu Kuan coming out.
"Hey, when I went there, the guard said you went to Pingtan, but I didn't expect you to come back so soon."
"It's not too early."
Looking at the dim sky, Su Mo nodded slightly.
"How to say, how is the research on that nuclear power plant, can it be manufactured?"
"Yes."
Lu Kuan gave an affirmative answer.
"But I have to tell you some bad news. The capability of this nuclear power plant may not be as strong as you imagined."
"You need a fuel rod, right?"
"Huh? You know?"
While Lu Kuan was puzzled, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It is not difficult to manufacture a nuclear power plant with a dedicated industrial core, and most of the materials needed can be found.
The only rare materials, because they are less used, can also be obtained by decomposing the unique garbage in the city through the decomposing machine traded from the red spider caravan before.
But regarding the fuel rods needed to start nuclear power plants, this is not a problem that garbage in cities can solve.
There is no source of the fuel rods in the documentation, nor even the specific ingredients and ratio.
If Sumo insists on using it, let them research fuel rods from scratch.
That's a real headache.
Even a scholar like Lu Kuan, who is almost at the apex of human physics, is somewhat at a loss.
"Let's build a nuclear motor first, I will find a way to solve the fuel rod problem."
"Oh?"
Choosing to skip Lu Kuan's question, Su Mo changed the subject with a smile.
It's not easy to find fuel rods. Even the hunting tiger is worried about the upcoming energy crisis, let alone the other gophers in the city.
There is absolutely no way to 'borrow' fuel rods unless it's taking down their shelter.
At present, the only one who knows the news and is sure to have it.
There is only the Hu Lai City of the enterprise.
But there are thousands of kilometers away from Tianyuan Territory.
Coinciding with the return of winter, this time Sumo didn't want to take advantage of such bad weather to take people through thousands of miles of mountains to explore unknown regions.
We need to find a place that is closer, or a place that won't affect the situation even if we start a fight.
Think about it.
Suddenly, Su Mo's eyes lit up.
"Ha, I remembered something, let's talk later."
After bidding farewell to Lu Kuan and boarding the airship again, Su Mo quickly remembered a place where there might be a large number of fuel rods.
The research institute of that academy!
According to what Katerina said, the affiliated research institutes of these colleges are all built in remote areas, where it is absolutely impossible to have a complete infrastructure to ensure energy supply, or even if there is, it was destroyed in the war.
Therefore, a nuclear power plant that can continuously bring in a large amount of energy is obviously a good choice.
Take the airship to about five kilometers west of Hope Village.
In the night, several unfinished red brick houses appeared in sight.
This is currently the only farm station in the territory.
When the flu virus broke out frequently, this place was once built as a temporary isolation point, and it temporarily accommodated many residents with fever symptoms.
But with the construction of Kaixuan Hospital, it was gradually abandoned.
The sharp-eyed Su Chan saw it, and took this opportunity to take it over as a farm resident.
Like those coolie lizards pulling carts, they usually move around in the fence near the red brick house.
However, with the addition of Katerina, the current farm has undergone some changes.
Before landing, Su Mo saw the eye-catching sign hanging on the crooked neck tree at the door.
Institute of Special Biology.
Hey.
Is this to oppose Lu Kuan's research?
Knowing the conflict between the two, Su Mo smiled, opened the door and walked into the fence.
Because of the open breeding, there is very little odor in the air, which is not as exaggerated as imagined.
Several lizards that were not rented out to pull carts were taking a leisurely walk on the grass.
Seeing someone approaching, I lost my fear at the beginning, and instead posted it intimately.
'Feed carrots, one iron coin once. ’
There is a vending machine next to the fence, with the feeding price and quantity clearly written on it.
Su Mo took out an iron coin from his pocket with great interest and threw it in.
There was a grunt.
At the delivery port, two carrots rolled out with obvious bruises.
"It's not bad to use this method to deal with vegetables that cannot be sold or stored for a long time"
"I just don't know if anyone is free to spend."
Throw the carrots to the two lizards at the front and watch them eat for a while.
Su Mo shook his neck, pushed open the separation fence door and walked into the small courtyard of the red brick house.
At a glance.
There are more than ten windows in the two-storey building, and at this time, six windows are lit, and there are figures flickering inside.
In addition to Katerina, there should be other people living in it.
Boom boom.
"Come in."
Katerina's voice came from inside.
Hearing the broken Chinese language, Su Mo couldn't help being surprised, he opened the door and walked in.
The spacious room that was originally used for isolation has now been filled with Katerina's various research equipment.
Although it is a bit messy, it also looks like a place that a scientific research scholar should have.
"Hey, why are you here?"
Fitting her glasses on the bridge of her nose, Katerina, who was wearing a gray-yellow robe, raised her head with a look of surprise on her face.
"Thank you for helping me find this place. I don't have to endure the nagging of those old men. It's really quiet."
"As long as you are satisfied."
Su Mo nodded with a smile, and by the way glanced at the two people sitting inside who were helping each other.
To his surprise, these two people turned out to be.
"Lord, you are here!"
"Hello Lord!"
A total of eight of those who escaped from the academy base took the initiative to work as hard laborers.
Su Mo didn't know exactly how these people arranged, so he only ordered Chen Shen to make arrangements.
I didn't expect to be arranged in this farm now.
"Why are you here?"
"The village head arranged for us to come here, to help the farm manager, and to help Researcher Carter by the way."
There was a hint of understanding on Su Mo's face.
Let's just say why this little girl didn't talk about it recently, it turned out that Chen Shen sent free hard labor over.
Before I always heard that Su Chan wanted some people to go to the farm to help her expand the scale.
But because the territory's infrastructure was being rolled out at that time, there was no way to spare manpower.
Later, after the wage system was implemented, the farms could no longer produce benefits, and naturally there was no money to hire them.
Now there are these high-level drudgery that are also quick to work with.
With the advantage of not needing wages and only needing to take care of food, it is a perfect match for farms that can't make a little money.
"It's good if you are here, I'm here to ask something, let's call everyone down first."
Instructing one person to find the other laborers who were still resting, Su Mo randomly pulled a stool and sat down.
"Do you know about nuclear power plants?"
"Of course I know." Katerina rolled her eyes: "I'm just sleeping in the dormant cabin, and it's not some old antique dug out from ancient times. Nuclear power. Not every gathering place will use it Energy supply equipment, is this what I used in my bunker?"
"What, the energy supply in your bunker is not solar?"
Su Mo was a little dazed.
In the news from the bunker that I received before, the item about energy is marked with solar energy.
He was not surprised at the time, he just thought it was the use of clean energy to reduce costs.
But thinking about it now, there is indeed something strange about it.
During the foggy days before, if the bunker only had solar energy, the energy supply would have been cut off long ago.
Where will it still look like it is now, completely unaffected.
"Solar energy?" Katerina dragged her chin and pondered for a while: "That should be the fake news they released, how could they use solar energy, a backward energy device, and solar energy is more expensive than nuclear power?" , if you want to buy a decent solar installation in the holy city, you have to pay at least five times the price of a nuclear power plant.”
Su Mo coughed lightly.
"Is it because of the mandatory purchase of fuel rods?"
"Yes."
Like a bottle of mineral water, what is valuable is not the water in the bottle, but the bottle itself and the shipping cost.
Although nuclear power is a high-end product, due to the mature industrial production line manufacturing, the cost has been compressed to the extreme.
If it is sold at a very expensive price, it is doomed not to replace other energy sources to generate benefits.
So set a very low subsidy price on the price of nuclear power plants to get more users.
At the same time, give a price that most people can accept on the consumable fuel rod, and earn a steady stream of benefits.
After sharing the cost, it is cheaper and more convenient than other energy facilities.
The only downside is probably the constant need for fuel rods.
Once used up, the motor is a waste.
"Do you need a lot of energy? I think your territory doesn't seem to be nervous. That strange stone can continuously accumulate energy, which is even more convenient than nuclear power."
"That can only be used for daily use, I need a lot of energy to do another thing."
"How much do you need?"
"At least a few million kilowatt-hours of electricity, and it has to be a steady stream."
After listening to Sumo's request, Katerina nodded thoughtfully.
She wasn't too surprised, there were more projects requiring a lot of energy in Blue Star.
Especially for those large colliders in the academy, the consumption of starting up and using it once is several times or even more than ten times of this figure.
However, the college will definitely not use outdated nuclear power plants to be harvested by the foundation. The mature large-scale energy towers can provide almost never-ending energy.
"I still have four fuel rods. If you need them urgently, go get them. One can provide 500,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity."
"When the time comes, you can replace the energy in the bunker with that strange stone."
"Four?"
500,000 for one, and 2 million for four, just enough to meet the needs of two releases.
Su Mo raised his brows and was surprised.
There is definitely no shortage of energy for life in the territory now, even if the number of people rises to 100,000, it will be no problem.
This is a unique property of power stones.
Every day, the energy source continuously absorbs radiation energy and converts it to provide quantitative energy.
As long as the upper limit of daily use does not exceed the maximum value, it is equivalent to unlimited energy.
But at the same time, this feature also restricts the upper limit of energy stones.
The converted energy cannot be stored in large quantities, nor can the conversion limit be increased in a short period of time.
"It's a pity that there is no news about the holy city. If I can go back, even if I give you fifty fuel rods. No, it's okay to give you a hundred fuel rods. Every researcher has ten fuel rods a year. The rations can’t be used up.”
Katrina said with some regret.
But at the same time, she also provided a very important message.
Recalling the purpose of this trip, Su Mo quickly asked: "Will nuclear power be used in the Institute's research institute?"
"Yes, but not every large shelter will build an independent energy tower, which can greatly reduce energy costs. Only some small and medium shelters will use nuclear power for convenience. Alternative energy supply.”
"Where is the Kyushu Rift Valley base?"
The eight hard workers next to them have gathered and are listening to the conversation here.
It's a pity that Su Mo and Katerina communicated in Blue Star language. For the hard workers, they could only understand a few words, and they couldn't organize effective information at all.
Now they suddenly heard a familiar Chinese language, and everyone was instantly refreshed.
"When you were at the academy base, did you see their energy devices?"
"Energy device, I seem to have seen it before."
A person standing at the back of the team hesitated to speak.
"It seems to be a few square boxes the size of vans, and they are placed on the third basement floor of the base."
Square box.
It seems that the nuclear power plant is indeed gone. ~IndoMTL.com~ If nuclear power is used, how many fuel rods are typically in the academy's base? "
"About 500, maybe more. It depends on the specific research direction of the Great Rift Valley Base. Only research institutes that require a lot of energy will store a large number of fuel rods!"
Five hundred!
Good guy, based on the calculation of 500,000 kilowatt-hours, it is a total of 250 million kilowatt-hours.
Even if you use delivery, you can use it 250 times!
This has to be figured out.
No, this base must find a way to get rid of it.
In just a split second, Su Mo had a decision in his mind.
