After inspecting the vegetable plantation,
Yan Long took advantage of the situation to inspect the breeding area.
In the living areas from the 12th to 30th floors of the shelter, each level has a plantation and a breeding garden. The scale of the plantation will be larger, and the breeding area will be smaller.
After all, people eat more vegetables than meat!
The price of eating meat and vegetables in the apocalypse is also very different.
"Your excellency, please look." Suzaki introduced while walking: "The breeding gardens in each of our living quarters are only about 40,000 square meters, and we separated 9 breeding areas into them."
"Right now, most of the poultry has not yet been delivered. In the future, we will breed nine types of creatures, such as cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, rabbits, fish, mice, and cockroaches in these nine breeding areas."
"We equipped each area with the most advanced farming technology, which can simulate suitable temperatures in any manner while maximising the use of existing resources, and cultivating suitable meat products."
It surprised Yan when he heard the words!
He can understand why they want chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep.
But why keep mice and cockroaches? Are these things edible?
"Did you say it right?" Yan Long frowned and asked, "What's the use of raising mice and cockroaches?"
"Your Excellency knows nothing." Suzaki answered patiently: "These two creatures are an indispensable part of the bio-degradation cycle in the shelter. They can not only digest a large amount of kitchen waste and domestic waste but also reproduce at a quick rate. Plus, the cost of growing them is very low."
"The most important thing is that they are rich in all kinds of nutrients needed by the human body and can be made into various nutritional meals and energy bars at low cost, so it is very cost-effective to breed them."
"Uh?"
Yan's face suddenly became strange!
It was only now that he remembered that there were indeed all kinds of nutritious meals and energy bars that were made from insects.
The shelter in the apocalypse, no matter how large it is, may not provide everyone with rice and meat.
This is an era of strict hierarchy. Those who are capable will eat meat, and those who are incompetent eat nutritious meals.
It is a dark paste-like object, like frozen porridge. It can be eaten after heating. A small bowl can maintain the consumption of human beings for a day, which is very cheap.
As for the energy bar, it is a bit more advanced. It is a solid similar to chocolate. It is rich in calories and nutrients.
Unexpectedly, they are all made of mouse meat and cockroaches, which are broken and stirred into minced meat.
Thinking of this, Yan couldn't help but feel a little nauseated.
However, he did not stop Suzaki's breeding program.
Because he knows that in the last days, it doesn't matter if the food is disgusting or not, the only thing that matters is that he lives.
When it comes to survival, nutritious meals and energy bars are gourmet food.
"Very good. Buy a large number of fishes that can be used for aquaculture and add them to the major breeding areas." Yan Long ordered.
"Yes!"
Suzaki quickly agreed.
Yan said nothing more.
After walking around for a while, I went straight to the eighth-floor arsenal.
The seventh and eighth floors of the shelter are the areas of the arsenal.
The seventh floor contains the workshops for large equipment such as aircraft, tanks, armoured vehicles, and rocket launchers. Most of the equipment is in a damaged state and temporarily unavailable.
The eighth floor is a production workshop for small military equipment such as automatic rifles, pistols, bulletproof vests, and bullets.
Now the guards under Yan's command are unarmed.
Faced with the dangerous situation in the early days of the apocalypse, it is best to equip a batch of weapons first.
"How's the repair going?"
After he arrived on the eighth floor, he found that most of the maintenance personnel were busy.
Baimu, the head of the maintenance team, is testing a large lathe.
The area is divided into 20 production workshops, and each workshop has a large amount of equipment that needs to be repaired, which looks tiring.
"Reporting to Your Excellency!" Baimu stood at attention and saluted, yelling: "There are 38 production lines in the major workshops on the eighth floor, including 197 machine tools, 43% of which have been repaired and repaired, and the remaining equipment is still being repaired."
"At present, there are three bullet production lines, one shell production line, one automatic rifle production line, and one pistol production line that can operate normally."
"However, there are few raw materials in the inventory. If you want to produce on a large scale, you need to purchase more raw materials."
Manufacturing equipment only requires some steel and accessories.
However, manufacturing bullets and shells requires a large amount of aluminium powder, magnesium, potassium nitrate and other materials, otherwise, high-explosive gunpowder with sufficient power cannot be produced at all.
Of course, these are common chemicals!
Adam has already placed many orders.
As long as you wait a little longer, there will be no shortage of raw materials in the inventory.
"Not bad!" Yan nodded with satisfaction and gestured, "Start the pistol production line and try to produce some samples."
"Yes!"
Baimu agreed and quickly got busy!
A long production line soon lit up.
The line comprises three huge 3D printers.
The internal instruments and equipment of the three machines are precise and equipped with a large number of mechanical arms. After launching, the program can be set to automatically produce.
I saw the machines were running continuously, the mechanical arm was constantly rotating, and pieces of precise pistol parts were quickly produced, and then the parts continued to move forward through the assembly line.
During this process, each part will have a painting process.
At the end of the assembly line, several robotic arms flexibly pick up the accessories and start assembling!
After a few swipes, a handful of finished pistols were placed in front of them.
"So fast?"
Yan took a deep breath and was secretly shocked.
In just a few minutes, pistols with black paint were crafted and freshly baked like works of art.
For the machinery in the sci-fi era, a pistol, a weapon with no technical content, is not much more difficult than producing a screw.
"Your Excellency, please try the gun!"
"This PHK pistol has a total length of 232 mm, a weight of 1.13 kg, and a barrel length of 135 mm. Its magazine capacity comprises 12 rounds and an effective range of 200 meters."
While introducing, Baimu beckoned someone to send a box of ammunition, then loaded the ammunition into the clip, and handed a pistol directly to Yan Long for inspection.
