Chapter 183 The fort is completed.
Chen Mu is not surprised that Du Jiajia can make rice balls.
Although normal rice cannot be cooked with just a tiny amount of water, now that the rice has been shrunk, the difficulty of cooking rice has greatly increased.
Of course, the old cooking methods still won't work.
Cooking rice and cooking rice are two different concepts. If you want to achieve a soft and elastic texture, the simmering time still needs to reach a certain limit.
It's still hard to do.
But Du Jiajia created a cooking method of her own.
To put it simply, the rice is roasted and then soaked in warm water.
Although the taste of the rice cooked in this way is still very different from before, it can still be regarded as a substitute. For these people who have been eating rice cakes for too long, it is already very satisfying.
"This green color can't be tea." Chen Mu picked up the rice balls with chopsticks.
"Smart."
"Nonsense, we only have those few things now." "
Hey, it's just soaking rice in tea. Let's make do with it." "
It's already pretty good."
Dong Junwei nodded. : "Jiajia's skills are getting better and better. The tomato, potato and radish rice she made last time was also very good." "
It depends on you, monitor. If you can control the temperature more accurately, I can make it." It's the same rice as before."
"I'll try my best, try my best..."
Dong Junwei was rarely reprimanded, so she was extraordinarily modest and cautious.
But to be honest, the chief decision-making officer usually spends most of his energy on team building, and is indeed not very outstanding in ability control. His mental power is probably only slightly stronger than that of Zhao Xiaoyan and others. It is precisely because of this that he Du Jiajia will complain about it.
Although this rice dumpling does not have rice dumpling leaves or glutinous rice, it is just tea and rice, but as the saying goes, there is a beach in your heart, and Sanya is everywhere. Everyone in Qiming ate it happily.
Chen Mu somewhat understood Tang Jing, He Ying and others' insistence on the sense of ritual.
For example, this simple meal of rice dumplings, which are not rice dumplings, makes everyone feel like they have returned to the past, and they feel particularly relaxed. It does have a great comforting effect in regulating their psychology.
...
The construction of the fort progressed much faster than expected, because Chen Mu found a thing that could perfectly replace the scaffolding, and that was foam plastic.
The two pieces of foam used to pad the carton are now the smallest density solids that Chen Mu can find. Calculated numerically, with the same mass, the volume he can control is 780 times that of stainless steel. After passing After Lu Shanshan lost weight, the overall effect was exaggerated.
The temporary stairs made of foam plastic can directly lead to the height of the first-floor observation deck and can be moved at any time, which greatly reduces the difficulty of construction.
Fourth of July.
The fourteenth day of the fifth lunar month.
It is advisable to go up the beam.
After twelve days of hard work, with the joint efforts of all members of Qiming Architectural Design Co., Ltd. and many non-staff personnel, the last beam of the high-level fort was installed.
At this point, the entire project is completed.
The design of the high-level fort is far superior to the original lookout tower in terms of practicality and precision.
Two elevators pass through the three-story transition platform and go straight to the highest level of the wooden door. The 16-square-centimeter elevator platform is enough to accommodate a dozen people at the same time. Although the high-level fort is usually only used by Cao Zishan alone, this elevator can accommodate both. to the three-story observation deck in the middle.
After a trial run, the fastest speed from the ground to the turret at a height of two meters can reach fifteen seconds. This is quite remarkable for today's humans. The clockwork device equipped for this is very expensive, both in terms of volume and technology. It took a lot of energy from Tang Jing and Chen Mu, and just the speedometer alone wasted a lot of effort.
Chen Mu and He Ying personally conducted several test runs to ensure that there were no safety issues before letting Cao Zishan go try it out.
The first time it was Chen Mu who accompanied him up.
Cao Zishan was extremely excited at first, but after he actually got on the platform and reached more than half the height, his legs became a little weak.
"You're not afraid of heights, are you?"
Chen Mu was a little worried. If this guy is not like Wei Dalei, then the fort will be in vain.
"No, no, it's just my first time at such a height, so I'm a little uncomfortable." Cao Zishan hurriedly explained.
"That's good, try it a few more times and you'll get used to it. In addition, the safe operating regulations for using lifts and turrets must be strictly implemented, especially the safety rope, which must be worn throughout the process. Remember this." "Yeah, senior
. Don't worry, I cherish my own life."
"That's good."
From a height of 2 meters, no matter how the damage is reduced, it is probably a serious injury. Under today's medical conditions, Death is not far away either.
To this end, there are two safety measures in the design.
The first one is a safety rope made of cotton thread. As long as it is worn strictly in accordance with the regulations, there will basically be no problems.
The second one is on the first floor, which is the 80 centimeter-high observation deck. A buffer platform is designed using foam plastic. The platform extends outward by 10 centimeters. As long as you do not deliberately jump to your death, you can ensure that you will catch an accidental fall. people.
After Cao Zishan arrived at the fort, he looked out through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass and was stunned for a moment.
This height is somewhat similar to the height of human sight in the past. The outdoor buildings, greenery, and roads, except for the reduced visual distance due to the reduction, everything is so familiar.
In the middle of the glass, there is a sliding window that can be moved left and right, but the width is much larger than ordinary windows. From this window, Cao Zishan can throw cannonballs.
"Your future mission is to discover the enemy's situation as early as possible and carry out long-distance strikes. Of course, these require long-term training. For now, the most important thing is to practice more throwing accuracy. Dong Junwei will create something for you. A special large-scale grenade."
Due to air resistance, at such a height, it is difficult for the grenades normally used by Chen Mu and others to maintain the throwing progress, and sometimes even if blown by the wind, they will not know where they went.
Therefore, the special grenade prepared for Cao Zishan is larger than the head, and it really looks like a cannonball. Coupled with the large number of steel balls placed by Chen Mu inside, the density is much higher than ordinary stones, and the throwing accuracy is very high. also greatly increased.
Of course, the power is even more extraordinary.
After all, the high-level fort in Cao Zishan was not designed to face a small group of enemies, but to guard against an invasion like Qingbei, where hundreds of people came out.
The completion of the fort gave Qiming another layer of security.
Of course, if possible, Chen Mu would rather never use it.
