    When Chen Xin, Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan arrived at the original train station in Linshi, what they saw was a canyon-like ravine and a snowfield completely buried in snow, with almost no trace of the existence of the building.  .

    The ravine is the original railway. Although there is a certain amount of snow on it, trains often pass by, so there is not much snow on the railway, leaving a ravine-like trace in the snow.

    The railway station in Linshi was a fourth-class station in the station classification before the Yanguo disaster, which was only one level higher than the lowest-level train-passing, over-traveling, and over-traveling stations.

    The station itself is a small one-story building, even lower than the surrounding houses. When the blizzard blew, it was naturally buried completely by the snow, leaving no trace behind.

    After all, it is a small station with only five trains passing through it a day before the disaster. There is no need for the space to be too big.

    Although before the disaster, Linshi was also looking for ways to expand the train station and build a loading and unloading station, it is clear that this work has not been completed.

    From the side of the ravine formed by the passing train, you can still see some traces of the loading and unloading station built before. After all, Linshi still has to load and unload the trains that brought them supplies here.

    It¡¯s just that the surrounding snow is nearly ten meters deep. Standing next to the ravine and looking down is like standing on the top of a four-story building and looking down. One can¡¯t help but sigh that everything created by human civilization is in the natural environment.  It's not worth mentioning in front of Weili.

    However, although the snow here is deep, a large area has been dug out, forming a relatively gentle slope.

    This is obviously a place used for loading and unloading materials in Linshi. Otherwise, every time you load and unload materials, you have to jump from the top of the four-story snow to the rails below, which is not an easy task.

    Even if you can¡¯t fall to death in the snow, it¡¯s impossible to transport the materials from below without digging a slope.

    "A Xin, how are you going to dig out the train station? Although this train station is not big, there is so much snow, even if you have enough manpower, it will take several days, right?" Qin Lan stood beside Chen Xin,  He carefully glanced at the railway below and asked Chen Xin.

    Chen Xin shook his head and said helplessly to Qin Lan's question: "How many days? Ah Lan, you underestimate the workload. Even if you are given two hundred people, it will take at least ten and a half days to dig out the train station."  Months, this progress can only be achieved after equipping them with exoskeleton protective suits. Otherwise, if you dig for a month or two, you may be able to dig to the original roof of the train station."

    "Ah? In that case, how are you going to dig out the train station?" Qin Lan was a little confused about what Chen Xin was thinking.

    He clearly said that he was here to investigate how to dig out the train station so that train loading and unloading could be more efficient, but now he said that even if he had enough manpower, he would not be able to clear out the train station in a short time. This is not a contradiction.  ?

    "Of course you can't dig with your hands. That would be too inefficient, and there aren't enough manpower." Chen Xin walked towards the slope in front, sliding down the slope while continuing to say to Qin Lan: "I came here to see if there are any  There is no way to clear this snow more effectively, it doesn¡¯t require a lot of manpower, and even if it takes a little longer, it¡¯s actually easy to do.¡±

    "Then have you thought of a way?" Qin Lan also slid down with Chen Xin. Both of them were wearing power armor. It was more convenient to slide down like this than to walk down.

    Standing at the bottom of the gully and looking up, Chen Xin felt the thickness of the snow more intuitively. Chen Xin turned on the measurement function of the robotic arm, measured it, and found that the snow thickness was 10.12 meters. Such thick snow could not be dug by humans alone.  , it is a huge project to clear this area of ??the train station.

    Even with the help of construction machinery, it is not an easy job.

    As for clearing out only one platform to facilitate unloading, that is possible, but the current problem is that Linshi simply cannot spare the manpower to do this.

    So now we either have to wait for the situation in Linshi to improve and patients with mild symptoms to recover and obtain enough labor, or wait for the city to find a way to send new reinforcements, or Chen Xin can think of a way to move the more than ten meters in front of him.  The snow evaporates directly.

    Evaporation is actually a feasible idea. As long as a large enough heat source can be created to raise the temperature within the train station to above zero and melt the snow, it will only take a few days to completely melt the snow here.

    But the problem is that in the current environment, to create a large enough heat source, not to mention where the energy comes from, after the heat source is created, how to ensure that the heat can spread to the entire train station is also a problem.??question.

    Although the fourth-class train station is only a few hundred meters long and looks very small, such a large area relies on a heat source to maintain heat and evaporate the snow here. All Chen Xin can think of is "The Age of Ice and Steam"  ¡·The heating fields that can be created by the energy towers and heating hubs in the game.

    Fortunately, this is not completely impossible for Chen Xin. After all, he has been considering this issue before, but now the energy tower is not used to build greenhouses, but to dig train stations first.

    "Just wanting to build an energy tower requires not only a lot of materials, but also a deep enough geothermal well.

    The problem of materials is easy to solve. Chen Xin now has an electromagnetic metallurgical furnace. With this furnace, he can obtain materials for building energy towers by recycling scrap metal in Linshi.

    But drilling a geothermal well that is deep enough requires not only professional equipment, but also professional drillers.

    Thinking of this, Chen Xin realized, isn't there a drilling expert in Linshi?

    So Chen Xin hurriedly asked Qin Lan: "Alan, you went to the Master yesterday. How is his condition?"

    "The situation of 'Master'? His situation is pretty good. He dug a hot spring when he dug a well for himself. He can live a good life relying on the hot spring. Why do you ask this, A Xin? Do you want to see him if you have anything to do?  Qin Lan heard that Chen Xin seemed to need the "drilling expert" to do something for him.

    Chen Xin nodded and said to Qin Lan: "Then let's find the 'Master'. I need him to help me drill a well."

    "Drilling? But A Xin, weren't you just talking about clearing the snow at the train station? What does drilling have to do with this?" Qin Lan was confused by Chen Xin. She didn't understand how drilling and clearing the snow were connected.  together.

    Chen Xin raised the corner of his mouth quite confidently and smiled at Qin Lan: "Didn't you mention the answer just now, Alan? The 'Master' dug out the hot springs, so he can rely on the hot springs to resist the cold, so I asked him to help me fight the cold.  A deep well, I want to use geothermal heat to evaporate the snow here."
