    In the original square in front of Linshi Railway Station, a drilling machine has been erected and is drilling down.

    "Be careful to clean up the gravel and soil that came up from the drill, and don't let them pile up around the drill hole!" Cao Daren was standing next to the drill bit full of energy at this moment, wrapping himself up like a bear and directing the few who were helping beside the drill rig.  Worker.

    The feeling of returning to his old career is a very rare opportunity for Cao Daren, which makes him full of enthusiasm for this job.

    Chen Xin found these workers for him. After the rescue team opened an ambulance station and began to treat patients, some patients with mild symptoms recovered after two days of rest and were able to work.

    Most of them were assigned to areas in urgent need of manpower by the Linshi City Government. Chen Xin relied on the reputation of the rescue team and the Linshi City Government itself to want to clean up the train station, so he recruited ten workers from the staff.  , helping him work with Cao Daren.

    Since Cao Daren agreed to help, he naturally didn't miss anything. After Chen Xin helped him find workers, he pulled his drill to the train station square with more than ten meters of snow. He didn't do any geological survey and set it up directly.  Use the drill bit to start drilling.

    This is not because Cao Daren is reckless, but because the entire city of Linshi is located on a geothermal fissure, and you can drill into the geothermal zone if you drill down casually.

    This geothermal fissure is the largest geothermal belt in Hunan Province. Not only does it run through the entire province, it also reaches Hubei Province. Chibi City in Hubei Province, where Chen Xin once visited, is also on this geothermal belt.

    And the geothermal resources contained in this geothermal belt are quite rich. The only two hot springs in Hunan Province with water temperatures exceeding 100C are the embodiment of this geothermal belt.

    However, although Cao Daren was drilling the well with great enthusiasm, he was not without worries.

    "Writer, the snow is so deep underground. If we drill into the geothermal layer, the rising heat will cause the snow to melt, which will affect the stability of the drilling rig. Moreover, your purpose is to evaporate the snow here. It is impossible to stand the wellhead above the ground.  More than ten meters high?" Cao Daren found Chen Xin, who had just returned from collecting materials, and told him his worries.

    Chen Xin naturally considered this issue and comforted Cao Daren: "Don't worry about this. I will build support pillars under the drilling rig to fix it. Even if the snow begins to melt, the drilling rig will not go out if there are support pillars to support it."  question."

    "Okay, since you are prepared, writer, I can rest assured." Cao Daren did not ask Chen Xin where the wellhead should be set. In his opinion, as long as the drilling rig can remain stable, the rest is not a problem.

    Seeing that Cao Daren had no other questions, Chen Xin carried the scrap metal he had just collected to the electromagnetic metallurgical furnace set aside.

    In order to facilitate construction, Chen Xin has moved this electromagnetic metallurgical furnace here and carried out a second upgrade. He has adjusted some problems encountered in previous use to make it more efficient and convenient.

    Put the scrap metal on the tray in the center of the machine, turn on the machine, and after a burst of sparks and steam, a spherical metal ingot with a fiery red color is smelted.

    Turn off the machine and let the metal ingot cool down quickly and fall back onto the pallet. While Chen Xin used the robotic arm to pick up the metal ingot, he also did not forget to clean up the residue on the pallet and threw it into an iron bucket next to the machine.

    These residues are all waste, but they cannot be thrown around. They will be collected and processed centrally.

    Of course, the spherical metal ingot is of no use, and Chen Xin still needs to process it twice.

    With the help of the robotic arm, the metal ingot, which was originally just a lump of iron, was processed into various metal parts and then put aside.

    It¡¯s just that most of these parts look like long strips of metal and various rings. Before Chen Xin completely assembles them, he can¡¯t tell what they are.

    But Chen Xin doesn¡¯t care about this. These parts are made according to the drawings he stored in the microcomputer on the robotic arm. Each part has a corresponding number. When the time comes, it only needs to be assembled according to the drawings.

    As for what is assembled, even if someone has seen Chen Xin's design drawings, they probably have to make a good guess to know what it is.

    After all, before Chen Xin made this thing, no one in the world could build a large radiator more than ten meters high.

    This thing is a device designed by Chen Xin after the heating hub in "Ice Steam Age". It looks very similar to the heating hub in the game, but the working principle is completely different. This is not burning coal.?.

    Its bottom will be connected to the geothermal well drilled by Cao Daren, which will continuously extract thermal energy from the underground through pipeline circulation, transfer it to the ground and then dissipate it through the heat sinks on the heating hub, thereby increasing the temperature around the heating hub.

    This is a rather crude and wasteful way of using energy. Because it dissipates heat directly into the air and there is no insulation around it, raising the temperature requires a lot of heat energy. If this heat energy is used to generate electricity or build a house,  Heating a house is much more efficient than this.

    But for Chen Xin, this is the most appropriate way to achieve his goal of evaporating the snow around the train station.

    In addition, for him who has a system, he can completely improve the drawings to make this heating hub work more efficiently, and really form a stable heating field around it like the heating hub in the game.

    This is not difficult for Chen Xin to achieve.

    And according to his plan, after the construction of the heating hub is completed, he will continue to upgrade the heating hub, transform it into a real energy tower, and extend the geothermal well at the bottom of the tower into the dry hot rock formations with high efficiency.  of mining deep geothermal energy.

    As for the waste caused by rough use, there is no need to worry. Compared with the small amount of geothermal resources used by Chen Xin, the geothermal resources contained under the formation can be regarded as endless.

    Unless the core of Blue Star is extinguished, the geothermal resources are inexhaustible. As long as you pay attention to the mining methods and do not cause geological damage or local over-exploitation, there will be no problems.

    Relying on the electromagnetic metallurgical furnace, Chen Xin continued to smelt the collected scrap metal, and had collected most of the parts. As long as Cao Daren dug the well, Chen Xin could start building this heating hub.

    At that time, as long as the heating hub is operated, the continuous heat energy will melt the surrounding snow, achieving Chen Xin's purpose of clearing the snow here.

    But thinking that all the snow will melt by then, Chen Xin also has to consider a problem, that is, how to drain water after the snow melts.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
