Chapter 1741 The North’s Food Harvest!(1/2)
North.
Snow and snow.
Outside the wall, snow covered the earth like a thick quilt.
Snowflakes fly freely in the cold wind, like the only dancer in the world.
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo-
The cold wind blew like a knife on the faces of the guards on the wall. Even though they put on masks, the cold still penetrated the masks.
Their eyebrows and knitted masks are all snow and ice.
But inside the wall, there was a different scene.
The greenhouse was slightly bent by the heavy snow, as if it was facing this natural test.
In the warm and steaming greenhouse, people wore thin short sleeves and waved their hoes to dig the soil. Sweat condensed on their foreheads, which contrasted with the coldness outside.
On the roof of the greenhouse.
Several men shoveled snow on the roof of the greenhouse with shovels.
This greenhouse is made of PVC sun panel material, which is different from plastic film and is more sturdy and can even stand on people.
In addition, the main frame of the greenhouse is made of keel steel, which is extremely stable and has a strong pressure bearing capacity.
If it were the ordinary greenhouses that were placed before the end of the world, covered with plastic film, would have long been unable to withstand it.
The snow is too heavy.
If it is ordinary light and medium snow or intermittent snow, there is no need for someone to remove the snow from the roof of the greenhouse.
The heating system provided by the greenhouse can melt the snow on the greenhouse.
But now it has been snowing all the time. If the snow is not removed for several consecutive days, it is easy to deform the greenhouse. Even the keel frame is strong, it is limited.
Dan Zheng tried to stabilize his body, use a shovel to push away the snow and push it to the side.
Crazy-
The snow was pushed to the edge of the greenhouse, with a slope on the edge and it slipped down.
"Damn it, I haven't cleared the snow for only two days, and the snow is almost half a meter high. When I first built this greenhouse, I should have designed it as a triangle so that there is no need to shovel snow." Shan Zheng cursed, while doing his work, and complained.
After hearing Shan Zheng's words in front, Sun Shou explained:
"Brother, triangular greenhouses will form sharp angles on the top, which will greatly reduce space utilization. In contrast, arched or planar greenhouses can provide a more uniform spatial distribution, allowing crops to receive light and moisture more evenly, thereby increasing yield."
"Jijiwaiwai."
Shan Zheng was in a bad mood, "How did you know this?"
Sun Shou said with a smile:
"In the previous training classes, Teacher Qin and others have popularized this knowledge with us."
"Oh." Shan Zheng rolled his eyes.
In the middle of winter, it was so heavy that they had to stand on such a high greenhouse to clear out the snow. It was so uncomfortable.
There are few people in the northern border, and there are less than 3,000 planting personnel and combat personnel.
However, the planting area in the northern border is vast, so they not only need to maintain normal planting of greenhouses, but also have to clean up the snow.
Some people even have to rotate to guard the walls.
There is no way, less than one-third of the people here at their headquarters base.
When encountering such extreme natural disasters, they are much busier than before.
As the snow was pushed down from the roof of the greenhouse by them, the people below quickly shoveled the snow on both sides of the greenhouse to one side with forklifts.
tired.
The shortness of breath and the cold air inhaled made their throats extremely uncomfortable.
Some people even have their throats that are too dry, ruptured and bleeding, and their spits are covered with blood stars.
Hula hula ~
In the city outside the north, the flag of the big camphor tree base standing on the pole fluttered in the wind.
A car drove out of the inner city.
Crunch ~
The off-road vehicle stopped and Li Haoran walked down wearing a thick military coat.
Stepping on the snow, half of his boots fell into the snow.
Ten centimeters thick snow.
"Who is responsible for the snow shoveling work on the roads in the outer city today?" Li Haoran asked Zhu Xiao behind.
Zhu Xiao thought about it and replied:
"It should be the Eagles and the others."
"Why is the snow so thick when the eagle comes?" Li Haoran frowned.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiao quickly explained:
"Supervisor Li, it's not that I'm talking to them, but that there are not enough manpower. With tens of thousands of acres in the northern city, they have to be busy cleaning up the snow and planting them, which is really hard to do."
Li Haoran heard this, thought about it and said:
"Get on the bus and go around to find out the situation."
They got on the off-road vehicle, and the chassis of the off-road vehicle was half a meter high from the ground, which was considered a car with a relatively high chassis.
In the heavy snow, a car with a low chassis cannot drive at all.
The off-road vehicle was driving in the snow. After driving for a while, they found that the snow thickness of the main road ahead was much lower.
Just ahead of them, four snow shovelers shoveling snow side by side.
On the way, they saw people busy shoveling snow on the greenhouse, and there were also forklifts shoveling snow in the middle of the greenhouse.
Along the way, there were people shoveling snow everywhere.
After seeing this scene, Li Haoran realized that Eagles and the others were not lazy, but because they really couldn't do it.
There are 1,000 people in the inner city, but the area is only a few thousand acres, and 2,000 people in the outer city, but the area is tens of thousands of acres, and most of them are planted with crops.
Daily light manages these greenhouses, at least thousands of people are required.
The wall is on duty for hundreds of people. In this way, there are probably only three or four hundred people cleaning the snow.
With rotation and rest, there is even shortage of staff.
Li Haoran saw the door of a greenhouse open and the heat inside steamed out.
He quickly asked Zhu Xiao to stop the car and walked over.
Before he could reach the door of the greenhouse, he saw a small truck driving out of it.
The truck truck bucket was covered with a layer of tarp. The bulging bags should be the food that had just been harvested.
Due to the space of greenhouses, medium and large trucks cannot enter the greenhouses, so grain transportation can only be carried through such small trucks or pickup trucks.
Li Haoran walked into the greenhouse.
A greenhouse has three acres, nearly two thousand square meters, and the greenhouses are of uniform specifications.
In the greenhouse, there is a corn harvester that is constantly harvesting the corn, and a small truck is driving side by side.
This harvester can peel off the leaves outside the corn cob to expose the corn kernels inside, and then transport them to the truck next to it via a conveyor belt.
In addition, the remaining corn whiskers and corn leaves are sprayed onto the sides.
Corn squid is used to dry and made into tobacco.
As for corn leaves and corn poles, they are used as feed to feed livestock in the northern border.
There are also breeding farms in the northern border, but the scale is not as large as the headquarters base.
In addition to being supplied to people in the northern border, most of the pigs, cattle and sheep raised here are used to transport them to the oil city.
This is also why the Oil City has been able to supply meat products stably. Relying survivors to hunt and catch wild animals outside cannot meet the market demand of the trading market.
Click click -
Behind the corn harvester, more than a dozen people pulled down the corn whiskers and threw them into a basket, and then threw the entire corn rod and corn leaves into the crusher behind.
The crusher breaks the corn rod and corn leaves and acts as feed.
Looking at the food harvest scene in front of him, Li Haoran's mood also improved a lot.
.........
Not far from Li Haoran, someone squatted on the ground and pinched the soil on the ground to study and check it.
Murmur:
