Tech Hammer - Chapter 532 Civilization Generation Gap
Communication on the evacuation took five satellite passes over China.
Of course, the main thing is the repeated communication and coordination in the underground city.
Ning Wei used this time to visit the base built on the moon, and also got the design drawings of the entire base, including the materials used, technical standards, and even construction precautions. All the details were in the small stored in the database.
The value of this information is self-evident.
To put it simply, after he returns to his hometown, he should be able to catch up with the construction cycle of the lunar base, and these design drawings can be used just in time. Not only to save a few design fees, but mainly because no one has experience in large-scale construction outside the earth before. With this information, we can perfectly avoid all the obstacles in the early stage of construction. These are the experiences that people on this earth have paid countless costs to sum up.
That night, under Smith’s strong request, Ning Wei finally allowed Liu Wei to take him to the base. Of course, the person who came was also required to communicate with the two of them for the subsequent rescue operation. Of course, the most important thing is that he has to ask the two of them to bring some food to stay overnight at the base.
Although the life support system in the base is still functioning normally, there is really no food for people to eat. They had all been brought aboard the legendary Bixi 003 during the evacuation a few years ago.
As for the reason for staying overnight, he was afraid that the Earth side had changed its evacuation plan and might contact him at any time.
According to Earth’s current evacuation plan, the next rescue operation will last about half a month. The two Feilong series boats on the Kuafu will take on the function of ferry boats in the next ten days. Members from more than seventy dungeons will be picked up on the Kuafu and then embark on a journey to Mars.
It’s a pity that when I came this time, I was teleported to a location near Saturn. Compared to the earth, it was exactly the same direction as Mars. Otherwise, I would rather go and appreciate how majestic the cities on Mars are.
Of course, it doesn’t matter if you go now, but if you want a complete Mars city design at that time, you will probably have to deal with people directly, which makes Ning Wei feel that it will seem a bit like trying to repay a favor. But then again, you still have to have it. Although people always joke that the biggest lesson humans learn from history is that they never really learn from history. But at the actual technology and engineering level, the situation is obviously the opposite.
The experience and lessons learned here are priceless.
The main thing that makes Ning Wei feel embarrassed is that he wants not only the blueprints, but also the small-scale nuclear fusion technology that can power the base. Well, this is priceless.
…
When Smith walked into the base, he was naturally amazed again.
Ning Wei felt very good. He actually liked seeing the philosopher’s unseen look.
“Okay, Smith, don’t study these things. Believe me, when we go back, we can build a more advanced base on our moon. You may not believe it, but the energy here really depends on helium. 3 supplies energy. This base itself purifies helium 3. We can also use this small nuclear fusion device in the future. Let’s eat well now.”
Ning Wei drew a pie casually, and to his surprise, Smith didn’t seem surprised after hearing this. Liu Wei, who was sitting next to him while eating, was obviously even more excited. He paused with his chopsticks and obviously suppressed his voice.
“Why aren’t you surprised?” Ning Wei looked at Smith and asked.
“Ning, is it surprising that people here can build a base on the moon, blow up Saturn to obtain resources, and master nuclear fusion technology?” Smith asked rhetorically.
I see.
He has seen too many things that surprised him along the way, which directly caused his psychological threshold to rise infinitely. Now that he hears about nuclear fusion technology, he doesn’t even think it’s a big deal.
This kind of mentality can be described in two words – drifting.
But Ningwei’s words brought Smith back to reality.
“While you were on the ship, I spent the past few hours working with the artificial intelligence – that is, the little girl who hosted us. With her help, I have been in contact with the humans on the earth here…”
When this question came up, Liu Wei finally couldn’t help it anymore and asked proactively: “So why is this place abandoned? Is it really because of the war?”
Ning Wei nodded and said with a heavy face: “Yes, a war more than thirty years ago destroyed civilization. Although it is not like Einstein said, human civilization has returned to the Stone Age. , but the situation on earth is also very bad. The vast majority of survivors in China are currently living in various underground or mountain shelters.”
“The good news is that the civilization here not only has a base on the moon, but has also successfully built a giant city on Mars. So our next task is to pick up as many Chinese people in underground shelters as possible. on the ship, and then send it to Mars. The better news is that there is a heavy industrial base on Mars that was designed and built in front of the station. It just lacks the materials to build the spaceship, so we have to help them bring some materials there.”
“In the future, they can first inhabit Mars, and while searching for and rescuing survivors on Earth, they can use modern technology to start rebuilding the Earth’s environment. In this way, it will only take a century at most, and maybe they can make the Earth return to what it once was.”
Ning Wei briefly explained the next task.
“Mars city? Rescue? Okay!”
“Wait, only save the Chinese people? If China is destroyed, what about other places?”
The two people asked almost at the same time.
The reactions were slightly different, but all expected.
Liu Wei just expressed his surprise and ignored him, so Ningwei just nodded at Liu Wei, then looked at Smith and said seriously: “Professor Smith, the Kuafu is a spaceship belonging to China, and it is only so big. , although the technology here is very advanced, some directions are not consistent. At least as far as maintaining the Kuafu is concerned, the engineers here do not have much experience. Of course, if you give them enough time, they can also perform maintenance. But once they come, they will next It will be very busy; secondly, how long do you plan to stay here? Five years? Or ten years?”
The well-founded rhetorical question left Smith speechless.
After all, the carrying capacity of the Kuafu is limited, and this is an indisputable time. Of course, the most important thing is that he is just a guest on the ship and has no say at all.
But naturally he was still a little unwilling, until Liu Wei suddenly said: “Professor Smith, I’m not sure whether the war on this earth is still going on, but no matter what, it was a war that almost destroyed civilization. Let’s not discuss it. Right or wrong, it is inappropriate for you to express any attitude at this time.”
“There are peace-loving people in every country.” Smith argued.
Ning Wei smiled and said: “But we don’t know who loves peace and who provokes war. So of course we have to leave it to our own people to identify this kind of thing. Didn’t I just say it? China has a relative relationship in the cities on Mars. A complete heavy industrial base, because it was previously defined as a bridgehead for colonization of alien planets, so the light industry may still face problems with the industrial chain, but there will definitely be no problem in building ships that can adapt to space navigation.”
“So we only need to send one or two groups of professionals there, and in one or two years at most, they will be able to produce a spacecraft from Mars to the Earth. That will be the time for large-scale immigration. The managers of Mars cities and scientists will naturally The speed of rescue will be determined based on the city’s carrying capacity and resources. This kind of thing is not something we can interfere with. If there are no accidents, we should have gone back by then. After all, you don’t want to see us building on the moon in our hometown A base like this? No, it should be a more magnificent base than this!”
Smith was silent for a while, then suddenly said: “Ning, I always feel like you know what you are going to do, so you came here with the Kuafu Hao.”
Ning Wei looked at Smith, tilted his head slightly, and then laughed dumbly: “Haha, Professor Smith, you know? You should not study philosophy, but write novels. Your imagination is too rich.”
Seeing that Smith seemed to want to say something else, Ning Wei simply said: “Okay, this matter has been decided. Smith, you will stay on the Kuafu tomorrow to assist March in providing services to those who come to the Kuafu.” Help. Liu Wei and I are in charge of a flying dragon to transport people from the underground city. Everyone should go to bed early today, I have a hunch that tomorrow will be very busy.”
…
The next day was really busy.
At 7:13 in the morning on Second Earth Time, Ning Wei received a call from Wang Chenxu again and confirmed the rescue action plan. At 8 o’clock sharp, the three of them had returned to the Kuafu.
Then the Kuafu officially set off and flew towards the earth.
Of course, at the Kuafu’s cruising speed, it will take thirty hours to arrive on Earth. These thirty hours are also the time for the underground city to start mobilizing and preparing.
But none of this matters anymore.
Now Kuafuhao has obtained the authority to directly contact the K003 dungeon.
For the time being, it still needs to rely on satellite communication. After Kuafu enters the earth’s orbit, it only needs to adjust its own speed to basically keep communication open.
In this way, when the Kuafu arrived in Earth orbit, it finally obtained the first batch of rescue dungeon locations. What surprised Ning Wei was that underground city K003 was not among them.
Ning Wei asked Wang Chenxu, and the answer he got was that K003 was arranged to be evacuated in the third batch, because the first two batches were also responsible for following the Feilong to transport luggage to various underground cities.
This moment made Ning Wei very curious…
Could it be that the first batch of evacuators were all strong men?
This question was quickly answered.
The Dragon spacecraft he was on arrived at the target docking place at the appointed time, a relatively flat plain outside the mountains. To his surprise, people wearing uniform radiation protection suits were waiting in a neat queue in the square. The strange thing is that it was agreed that it would be a team transporting baggage, but Ning Wei did not see the baggage. Just a few hundred people. Everyone carries a bag. Is this what is called baggage?
Fortunately, the weather was pretty good, at least there was no black rain.
When he passed through the troposphere just after landing, Ning Wei was shocked by the clouds that were still full of dirt.
At this time, the steward in front of the team stood very conspicuously. He stood alone in front of the team, his chest straight like the others.
Originally, Ning Wei planned to stay on the ship and direct these people to get on the ship through the radio, but when the camera saw this disciplined posture, Ning Wei felt that there was no need for him to do anything extra. After detecting it, he simply opened the hatch and came to the door.
What greeted him were countless curious glances mixed with gratitude.
The man with a solemn expression raised his legs, walked forward, then raised his right hand and gave Ning Wei a very familiar salute. The ten teams behind him also raised their hands to salute at the same time. This scene made Ning Wei feel a little dazed for a moment, not knowing what to do. Is good.
Mainly because he couldn’t return the gift and could only stand there. If it were Liu Wei, he probably wouldn’t have to be so entangled.
Fortunately, the salute didn’t last long, and there wasn’t even time for embarrassment to brew.
“Hello, Mr. Ning, I am Tan Jinlei, commander of the 19th Marine Battalion. I am very grateful for your helping hand at this time. I will not say any more. We will be forever grateful.”
“Commander Tan, hello! You don’t have to be so polite. This is really what I should do. Why don’t we let everyone get on the ship first, so that we don’t need to wear protective clothing. Let’s start quickly. The task is quite heavy.”
“Thank you!” Tan Jinlei said, then waved his hand, and the people behind him immediately lined up and began to board the ship.
…
In less than five minutes, everyone boarded the ship in an orderly manner.
To Ning Wei’s surprise, when everyone took off their radiation protection suits, Tan Jinlei’s first request when he walked up to him turned out to be…
“My soldiers need somewhere to lie down, or if they can’t lie down, sit down.”
“Forehead……”
This request somewhat surprised Ning Wei. It was agreed that the first batch would be the first to carry the baggage? Looking for a place to lie down? Also, why are the protective suits that were taken off neatly placed beside the entrance passage of the spacecraft? “
“It’s not impossible to just sit on the ground, but there must be a survivor waiting here. They can’t be disturbed, so they need a separate place.” Tan Jinlei explained again.
Ning Wei was stunned for a moment, and finally couldn’t help but ask: “Commander Tan, actually this is not the issue I’m concerned about. Well, didn’t Mr. Wang Chenxu from Underground No. 003 say that you should be responsible for transporting some necessary supplies first? I don’t think so. Did you see any supplies being transported?”
“Yes, so my soldiers need a place to lie down. Oh…I understand, so it is not convenient for me to explain to you now. You will know later.”
“Then…Okay. Why don’t we go to the upper floor? There are two theater-renovated rooms on the upper floor, with a total of 400 seats. Is that enough?”
“It’s a hundred places short, but it doesn’t matter. Others can lie on the edge of the aisle! Sorry to bother you! Which way to go up?”
“This way…”
“Thanks.”
