    In the power distribution room of the shelter, the second uncle and several elders stood at the door, looking expectantly at Chen Xin instructing two young people who knew electricians to connect the isotope thermoelectric battery he removed from the car to the shelter.  circuit.

    "Okay, just connect the red and blue wires. The power generation and service life of this battery are enough to supply the entire shelter for more than ten years." Chen Xin watched two distant relatives connect the batteries with circuit connection cables.  After connecting it to the transformer of the distribution box of the shelter, I nodded affirmatively to my second uncle and the others.

    "Can this really meet the power requirements? Just such a small battery?" An elder obviously couldn't believe it. After all, the isotope thermoelectric battery Chen Xin brought looked too inconspicuous.

    ¡° Having something as big as a larger thermos bottle to provide power for such a large shelter is beyond the imagination of these elders who have spent their entire lives just farming.

    But Chen Xin¡¯s father was more accepting of this and asked Chen Xin: ¡°What is the output power of this battery? How high is the voltage?¡±

    "With a voltage of 500v and an output power of 150kw, this is a battery for my car. It can meet the needs of the shelter without any big problem." Faced with his father's question, Chen Xin answered seriously: "It's just that the voltage is a bit high.  , it must be connected to a transformer before it can be used, and it is dangerous to a certain extent. You need to pay special attention when using it. However, it is not a big problem. I will upgrade and optimize the circuit later and adjust the access method. There will be no problem.  .¡±

    After hearing what Chen Xin said, Chen Xin's father did some calculations and then said to his second uncle: "The power is a bit low, but it is enough for heating. But be careful when using other high-power appliances, as there may be insufficient power.  .¡±

    "It's good to be able to turn on the heating, and there are no other high-power appliances in the village." When the second uncle heard Chen Xin's father say this, he immediately looked happy and didn't care what Chen Xin's father said.  The issue of not being able to turn on more high-power electrical appliances.

    However, Chen Xin also heard what his father said, thought about it and said, "This is not a problem. I made this battery myself. I can change one using a car battery. Later, uncle, you can ask the town to change two cars."  When the battery comes, I can change it into a battery pack, so there will be no problem, and the production capacity in the greenhouse can also be expanded."

    This is also something in Chen Xin¡¯s plan, just like his own shelter, to increase greenhouse production capacity and obtain more output in exchange for more materials, forming a virtuous cycle.

    "Can greenhouses increase production capacity?" My second uncle was particularly concerned about this. As the village chief for many years and a farmer who has been farming all his life, he is the most sensitive to the issue of crop output.

    Chen Xin nodded and replied affirmatively: "Yes. After the power is increased, the fill lights and heaters in the greenhouse can work longer, thereby speeding up the growth of crops and obtaining higher yields. And I plan to  Renovate the structure of the greenhouse and try to allow you to grow more food here."

    Chen Xin¡¯s words immediately made the elders present happy. For them, being able to grow more food is more practical than anything else.

    "The relationship is good. It's a good thing to be able to grow more food! I don't panic when I have food in my hands." The second uncle's face was red with joy, which was completely different from the full face when Chen Xin saw him for the first time when he came back.  different.

    Chen Xin didn¡¯t make any guarantees. He just nodded and said nothing more. He just had an idea about the renovation of the greenhouse. He had to see it first before talking about how to do it.

    As for now, the second uncle and the others can¡¯t wait to turn on the heating equipment in the shelter.

    With the heating equipment turned on, the temperature in the shelter finally rose, and everyone had smiles on their faces.

    And Chen Xin also received a system prompt for the first time in a long time:

    "Help others improve their living conditions in their shelters and gain 5,000 survival points."

    "Help 4 people improve their living conditions and gain +50 survival points every day"

    The population of the village is of course more than fifty, but a shelter can only increase its survival points by so many points by improving its living conditions at a time.

    For Chen Xin now, these gains are gratifying, but they are no longer something he particularly cares about. More importantly, this method can bring him income.

    Thinking that he has provided isotope thermoelectric batteries to the country, Chen Xin can't help but look forward to how many survival points he can bring to himself if the country promotes this technology.

    Even if one shelter only has fifty points, there are so many shelters across the country.On a large base, this is an astronomical amount of income.

    The only thing that worries Chen Xin now is whether the isotope thermoelectric battery produced by others under his influence can be recognized by the system, thus bringing him some survival points.

    Chen Xin is not sure about this issue, but the problem is not big. Even if the isotope thermoelectric battery produced by others is not recognized by the system, he can produce it himself and sell it to others.

    As long as the country starts to promote this kind of urgently needed thing, it will inevitably become hard currency. There will be no worries about sales. The impact it can have on Chen Xin is nothing more than the number of survival points he will eventually gain.

    And as Chen Xin can provide more products, he will be able to harvest more survival points. After all, although you can only harvest something once, there are so many things that can be improved in a shelter.  He can just like cutting leeks, harvest after harvest.

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    The greenhouse in this shelter in the village is completely different from Chen Xin¡¯s greenhouse. Although it is also a greenhouse, the area here is obviously much larger.

    And Chen Xin could tell that this greenhouse should have been converted into a greenhouse by adding a cover to the original farmland, instead of transporting soil from the outside into the shelter to use it as cultivated land like he originally did.

    But even so, the area of ??cultivated land is limited. According to the second uncle's introduction, the cultivated land area here is only about one and a half acres, totaling 900 square meters.

    This 900 square meters of land is like a huge nine-square grid. In the center of the greenhouse are four thick support columns, and there are twelve similar support columns beside the walls to support the top span beam.

    Nine hundred square meters of farmland sounds large, and the output is not bad, but considering that there are more than a hundred people in the village, this output is not too much. After all, this greenhouse is not like Chen Xin's own.  The fill light and heater can be turned on 24 hours a day.

    A greenhouse with only one layer of soil is not like Chen Xin¡¯s upgraded multi-layer greenhouse, which can achieve three-dimensional planting and obtain greater yields.

    The types of crops grown in the field are also relatively simple, with only cabbage, radish and a large area of ??leaf crops that Chen Xin does not recognize.

    "Second uncle, what are you growing?" Chen Xin walked to the leaf crops and looked at the vines and leaves that were almost all growing close to the ground, and asked his uncle curiously.

    "These are sweet potatoes. They have been planted for almost four months and are almost ready to be harvested." Mentioning these crops, the second uncle's face was also full of pride and satisfaction. Just like he said, he has food in his hands.  I don't feel panic.

    For farmers in Yan State, these crops with promising harvests are the greatest source of happiness.

    When Chen Xin heard his second uncle say that these were sweet potatoes, he suddenly showed a surprised expression: "Is this a sweet potato?"

    "Huh? Ah Xin, have you never seen sweet potatoes?" The second uncle was a little confused. Sweet potatoes should be very common, and it is impossible for Chen Xin to have never seen them.

    Chen Xin shook his head, reached out and touched the vines and leaves of these sweet potatoes and said, "Of course I have seen sweet potatoes, but I have never seen sweet potato vines and sweet potato leaves growing in the ground."

    Hearing what Chen Xin said, the second uncle nodded with understanding. It is true that many people have eaten sweet potatoes, but not everyone knows the sweet potato vines and leaves.

    "You have a greenhouse yourself, right? Do you want me to bring you some sweet potatoes? They are easy to grow. A sweet potato can be chopped into pieces and used as seeds." The second uncle thought that Chen Xin also had a greenhouse himself and immediately suggested to him.  .

    When Chen Xin heard what his second uncle said, he didn't refuse. He stood up and said, "I'm sorry to bother my second uncle. Although I have a lot of seeds, I really don't have any sweet potatoes."

    "It's a joke, but what kind of staple food are you growing there? You can't just grow vegetables. You can't fill your stomach just by eating vegetables." The second uncle expressed concern to Chen Xin. Obviously, in his opinion, the staple food is not good at all.  To be planted.

    Chen Xin had no problem with this, and replied with a smile: "I grow upland rice, which is more than enough for myself. Plus there are a lot of vegetables, which can be exchanged for a lot of food. After all, my place is a city.  , food is much easier to get than here at home."

    When the second uncle heard what Chen Xin said, he nodded and turned to him and asked: "A Xin, I feel relieved when you say that. Then look at what can be modified in this greenhouse to increase the output."  It¡¯s a good thing, so that people in the village can have enough to eat.¡±

    This is what the second uncle is most concerned about and looking forward to. Most of the greenhouse in front of him is planted with sweet potatoes, and the growth of sweet potatoes takes at least five to seven months. Even sweet potatoes with a short growth period take four months before harvesting.  People in the village can't talk about how well they eat.

    "Let me take a look first. I just have an idea about how to transform it. I have to see the details before talking about it." Chen Xin was not sure, and asked his second uncle about his request: "Second uncle, do you think the greenhouse should be  How to do it? My idea is to add a layer of hydroponic planting layer, so that a lot of crops can be grown."

    Hearing what Chen Xin said, the second uncle couldn't help but worry: "Hydroponics? Is this easy to do? I have heard of this technology, but no one in the village has done it!"

    "This technology is not complicated. Second uncle, please listen to what I tell you" Chen Xin laughed and introduced the hydroponic planting technology to his second uncle.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Before the harvest, people in the village could not say how full they were.
