"I can upgrade the refuge novel ( to find the latest chapter!

After a one-night rest, Chen Xin, his parents, and the cousin who was in

charge of driving, returned to the shelter in the village again.

After returning to the refuge, it was naturally an inevitable hush to ask

warmth and concern. After Chen Xin dealt with it, he found the second aunt and

talked to her about the things that she wanted to bring back some chickens to

raise.

"It's easy to say, but Axin, can you bring the chicken back? It's so cold now,

the chicken is easy to freeze to death!" The second aunt expressed her concern

and brought Chen Xin to the chicken farm in the refuge. .

The second aunt opened the door of the chicken farm, and a hot air that was

different from the slightly cold air in the refuge gushed out, causing Chen

Xin to look sideways.

This chicken farm was remodeled with an ordinary room. There were about seven

or eight hens and a rooster. A chicken coop was built with bricks and asbestos

tiles in the corner, and an electric heater was placed on the other side.

This was the first heater that Chen Xin came to this refuge.

"All the chickens are here. It's okay if you want to bring the chicks back to

raise them. You can give you two hens, but in such a cold day, I'm afraid your

chickens will freeze to death if you can't take them home." I walked into the

chicken farm and touched the eggs in the chicken coop, while complaining to

Chen Xin, “Now this chicken is better than people. Roast the fire, the chicken

will make the nest warm, so as not to lay eggs! What kind of world do you

think this is?"

Listening to his second aunt's words, Chen Xin could only follow with a smile,

without saying much.

Everyone knows what kind of world it is now, and the second aunt is just

complaining and does not need Chen Xin to answer her words.

However, as to whether he can bring the chicks back, Chen Xin is quite sure,

and replied affirmatively to the second aunt: "I don't want to hatch a chick,

you can give me a few eggs that can hatch a chick. I’ll bring the eggs back,

and I’ll just hatch the chicks when I get back. I have heating facilities, the

temperature is not low, and there is no problem with raising chickens."

"That's very good. Raising a few chickens is a good thing. I can touch two

eggs to eat every day." When the second aunt heard Chen Xin say that it is

possible to raise chickens, she didn't say much, but asked him: "Then A-Sing,

how many eggs do you want? How about you bring an extra hen? Otherwise, the

chicks don’t have a hen brood, and they are not easy to raise.

"It should be enough to be able to hatch three or five chicks. The main thing

is to have a male and female. This will be better." Chen Xin put forward his

own request.

"Then I will pick ten eggs and a hen for you. Go back and build a hen house

and keep warm, so that the hen nest will almost be able to hatch." The second

aunt nodded and put the eggs that he touched. In a basket, it was handed to

Chen Xin, and the chicken manure on the chicken farm was cleaned up again, and

then Chen Xin left the chicken farm with him.

Together with Er Yi sent the harvested eggs to the storage room. Chen Xin

looked at this small storage room and couldn't help frowning: "Er Yi, there

are not many things here! Do you only have so little supplies here?"

"That's a lot! The other villages around are not as good as ours." The second

aunt said with emotion, but she also affirmed Chen Xin's statement: "The food

sent from the town every week is only enough for one week. We can If you have

this stuff to keep in stock, it depends on the greenhouses and chicken farms

you tell us that you can collect a lot of vegetables and eggs every month in

order to get something.

Life in other villages is much harder than ours. They can only live on the

food delivered by the town every week. If the town does not deliver the food

in time, they will be hungry and even starve to death. "

The second aunt's words caused Chen Xin's heart palpitations and starved to

death. For Yan Guo, this is already a memory of the previous generation.

Yan country is a traditional farming and civilized country. It has always

relied heavily on land to maintain the lives of ordinary people. Even in the

modern era with advanced technology, various natural and man-made disasters

can still affect farmers' harvest and life in a year.

In fact, before Yan's widespread promotion of hybrid rice, Yan's grain output

has been unable to meet the needs of the people, and Yan's per capita arable

land ranks quite low in the world.

This is why, in the memory of the previous generation, at the time, it caused

a national famine.

If it were not for the hybrid rice of Druid Yuan and the efforts of the

majority of agricultural scientific research workers, the country's grain

output could grow while the area of arable land decreased year by year, the

country would have faced a food crisis long ago.

In fact, the country of Yan realized the transition from not having enough

food to being full after entering the 21st century.

However, with the arrival of the apocalyptic disaster caused by the meteorite

impact, the food crisis has actually come to the people of Yan country.

The disasters caused by meteorite impacts are all-encompassing. The most

intuitive impact is the destruction of arable land across the country.

Although the country’s national reserves of food were enough to eat for the

people of the whole country for three years before the disaster, there was no

output. Even if the food can be eaten for ten years, it will be eaten in one

day.

Thanks to the national efforts before the disaster, 80% of Yanguo's population

survived. These populations have provided Yanguo with ample labor force for

the post-disaster reconstruction work that has now begun, but also for

logistics, especially food. Supply has brought tremendous pressure.

Before the disaster, Yan country’s grain production had reached an average of

650 million tons per year, and the per capita food consumption was about 470

kilograms. This amount of food can meet the consumption of the people of Yan

country. This is why the people of Yan country have never had enough food

before the disaster. It has been transformed into the reason for being full.

But now the 650 million tons of annual food production has been turned into

fly ash, and all the arable land in the country was destroyed in the disaster

caused by the meteorite impact. Due to the current climate environment, it can

no longer be cultivated.

The main source of food in Yan Country is a limited amount of food produced in

the greenhouses of various refuges and specially established planting areas.

These foods can meet part of the demand and consumption, but they absolutely

cannot meet the needs of nearly one billion survivors across the country.

In short, if the country cannot solve the problem of food supply and demand

before the stock of food is exhausted, then a considerable number of survivors

will starve to death in two to three years.

For Chen Xin, he would certainly not be able to influence the whole country

and make the people of the whole country eat full, but he can still do so that

his relatives can at least be able to eat in this apocalyptic disaster.

As for the key to being able to do this, it is natural to rely on the system

to upgrade this shelter.

However, upgrading cannot be said to be a survivor without any planning. It is

easy to cause various problems, and even if the refuge is to be upgraded, Chen

Xin must also consider the actual needs of his relatives.

——————————————

Chen Xin found his second uncle, and planned to ask him what are the current

problems in this shelter in the village, what are the most urgent needs, and

then consider which projects to upgrade first.

"The current problems and needs in the village?" After listening to Chen Xin's

question, the second uncle replied after thinking about it for a while, "The

problem is nothing more than clothing, food, housing and transportation. I

don't need to go out in such a cold day. The only consideration in the shelter

is heating.

As for the rest of the food and clothing, the problem is not too big. With the

supplies sent from the town every week, plus the greenhouse in the refuge and

the chickens raised by your aunt, you can still fill your stomach. . "

Chen Xin nodded and said in conclusion: "In other words, the most urgent need

in the village is heating?"

"It can be said that the weather is getting colder and colder. Everyone is

doing things and activities during the day, but they can still survive, but it

is very difficult to sleep at night." The second uncle expressed his concern

and was helpless. Xin said: “The heating in the shelter now relies on

generators to generate electricity, but the generators rely on a little

gasoline sent from the town every month, in case the gasoline sent to the town

next time is not enough, or not at all. , We can't make it anymore."

After Chen Xin finished listening, it became clear immediately.

Sure enough, even in different places, the demand is basically the same.

"Let me figure out how to solve these problems, and try to solve this problem

for the village." Chen Xinchong's second uncle made a guarantee and also made

some requests: "I can help the village's refuge in some reforms, but some

materials may be needed. Please ask your second uncle to ask or change it in

town."

"Upgrading? Axin, can you really do it? What can be transformed?" The second

uncle suddenly showed concern when he heard Chen Xin say this.

"There are many things that can be changed, but the problem of power supply is

still to be solved first. I first remove a battery from my car and connect it

to the circuit of the evacuation shelter, so that the power supply problem can

be temporarily solved first, and I will follow up. Carry out some

transformations to make the electricity self-sufficient~www.mtlnovel.com~Chen

Xin expounded his thoughts and explained his thoughts to the second uncle.

After listening to Chen Xin's thoughts, the second uncle showed a happy

expression on his face, and the wrinkles on his forehead were all relaxed: "If

the power supply problem can be solved, it would be a great help! When the

shelter was built! We listened to Axin’s suggestion to install a heating

system, but unfortunately the electricity has been unable to keep up, and now

we dare not use that thing."

"There is a heating system in the refuge?" Chen Xin couldn't help but raise

his eyebrows, but he was surprised.

Obviously, when the country first built the shelter, many issues were

considered, and Chen Xin also reminded them a lot of precautions about

building the shelter. There must be a solution to the problem of heating that

must be solved.

It's just that the shortage of energy makes the heating system a display.

Then solve the power supply problem first, so that the heater can be turned

on! Chen Xin made up his mind.
