After getting up in the morning, Chen Xin washed up, got dressed, had breakfast with his parents in the restaurant, and was ready to go out.
"A Xin, are you going to inspect the ecological greenhouse at the labor camp today?" However, when Chen Xinlin was going out, Mo Qingyan suddenly stopped him: "Can I go with you?"
"It's true that I want to go to the farm, but Qingyan, do you want to go with me?" Chen Xin felt a little strange when he heard Mo Qingyan said that she wanted to go with him.
Under normal circumstances, neither Qin Lan nor Mo Qingyan would make such a request, because Chen Xin went to work, and the two of them had never made such a request that would interfere with his work.
However, Mo Qingyan nodded clearly: "I want to take a look, can I come with you?"
Mo Qingyan said, the expression on her face looked a bit expectant, but also a little bit worried.
Chen Xin thought for a while and felt that it didn't matter if he took her with him, so he nodded in agreement: "It's okay to take you there. Do you have anything to pack? If it's nothing, just leave."
"Yeah!" After hearing that Chen Xin was willing to take her along, Mo Qingyan hurriedly finished her breakfast, wiped her mouth and followed.
The two left the shelter in the elevator, put on protective clothing, and then came to the scientific research center together.
At the scientific research center, the team is already waiting for Chen Xin.
Today they are going to the labor camp to inspect the construction and operation of the greenhouse to see if there are any problems that need improvement, so in addition to Chen Xinhui, there are also several researchers from Professor Li's team.
Originally, Professor Li himself wanted to go, but the old man was not in good health, so he was persuaded and replaced by several young and powerful researchers.
After the group of people reunited, the convoy drove out of the scientific research center and headed towards the labor camp.
The labor camp is located on the other side of the urban area. To get to the scientific research center, you need to pass through the urban area.
The convoy is moving forward. There are no roads left now, and the city is covered with snow.
Except for a few key places where people cleared the snow to ensure that the main entrances to urban shelters were not buried by snow, other places were buried by snow from previous blizzards.
As for transportation, usually everyone uses roads built underground.
After such a long time, all official shelters in the city are now connected by underground transportation networks.
Under normal circumstances, vehicles will drive underground and will not be disturbed by wind and snow from the ground. At the same time, they can also avoid the damage to vehicles caused by low temperatures in extremely cold environments.
However, because the vehicles in Chen Xin¡¯s fleet were all-terrain vehicles, they passed directly through the ground and did not enter the underground transportation network.
"Speaking of which, I haven't been to the city for a long time!" Sitting in the car, Mo Qingyan looked out of the car window and couldn't help but sigh.
Since she moved to Chen Xin¡¯s place, she has indeed not been to the city for a long time. As for her own home, it is still frozen under the snow and has not been dealt with.
Hearing Mo Qingyan's emotion, Chen Xin also echoed: "It's been a long time since I came here, and I haven't seen Xiao Ding for a long time. I don't know how she is doing now."
Having said this, Chen Xin remembered that he had not seen his friends from the past for a long time. Whether it was Ding Ning, Li Yulong, or Li Wensheng, Chen Xin had not seen them for a long time.
This is not because Chen Xin deliberately alienated his friends, but in the current environment, everyone is working hard for survival and there is no time for everyone to get together like in the past.
With such emotion, the convoy passed through the city and drove for about two hours before arriving at their destination today.
Before the disaster, the reform-through-labor farm was a place where minor criminals were imprisoned and forced labor was performed.
After the disaster, due to the deterioration of the environment and various reasons, the labor camp was no longer responsible for the labor reform of prisoners and was basically abandoned.
Among the prisoners originally detained here, those with shorter remaining sentences or lighter sentences were pardoned and released, while the rest were transferred to other places and will participate in various labors with prisoners in other places.
This is also how the country dealt with various criminals originally imprisoned after the disaster.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Continuing to incarcerate serious criminals will consume a lot of resources, and if they are allowed to work, they can actually provide the country with indispensable resources,¡± he said.?¡¯s workforce.
As for now, although greenhouses have been rebuilt on the original land of the labor camp, the people responsible for maintaining the greenhouses and working here are no longer the criminals who were previously imprisoned, but workers who have received specialized training.
After all, although fully automated machinery is not used here due to cost issues, and only manual operation of agricultural machinery is used to complete the work, ecological greenhouses still require a certain amount of professional knowledge and working skills, and relying on prisoners is obviously not enough.
In addition to the importance of ecological greenhouses, it is indeed not suitable for prisoners to serve as the main labor force here.
For the arrival of Chen Xin and others, the farm was naturally prepared, and specially arranged a special person to greet them and take them to visit the greenhouse that has now been built.
The entire farm originally had more than 30,000 acres of cultivated land. Due to various disasters after the meteorite fell, the total land cleared and planned to be used for ecological greenhouses is less than 5,000 acres. Only more than 3,000 acres of ecological greenhouses have been built, and a considerable part of it is still there. The land is being cleared.
Generally speaking, this is not a very large area, but considering that the entire farm has been re-cleaned and constructed in the past six months or so, Chen Xin thinks that it can be as large as it is now.
The ecological greenhouse here adopts Chen Xin¡¯s original idea. A geothermal energy tower was built in the center of the farm to generate geothermal power and heating, providing electricity and heat to the surrounding ecological greenhouses to ensure the operation of the ecological greenhouses.
As for the interior of the ecological greenhouse, it is more substantial than that of the scientific research center, because there are fewer mechanical parts and more crops are added.
"Do you mainly rely on manpower for labor now?" Chen Xin asked the staff accompanying him.
"Currently, most of the work is done by manual operation of agricultural machinery, which is semi-mechanized labor. The overall workload is not particularly large. On average, a greenhouse with an area of ????20 acres only requires 6-8 people to complete all the work." Staff Answering Chen Xin's question, his words showed pride unconsciously: "We normally allocate 6 people to a greenhouse for daily maintenance. When it's time to harvest, we will add two more people to help with the harvest, which can fully guarantee The operation and output of the greenhouse!"
