Chapter 135
When it rained heavily, many people with foresight parked their cars here.
Maple and Poplar Parking Lot made a fortune from this.
Zhipeng and his friends heard about this and took an oil barrel to see if they could make gasoline.
A few young men in their early twenties had a lot of clever ideas. After spending a lot of time, they finally found the trick.
He came back and called the sons of his cousins, and the five of them spent two whole days draining all the gasoline from the truck in the parking lot.
The fuel tank of an average family car is 35-55 liters. There are hundreds of gasoline trucks parked in the parking lot. Some cars may have half a tank of gas, and some cars only have one-third. However, with so many vehicles, the accumulated number is also a considerable number, which is more than 7000 liters of gasoline.
Several families found various containers in their homes to hold the oil.
This was far from enough. In the end, Zhou Shuwanhua took out several large plastic water tanks from the space to solve the problem.
The five families each received 1200 liters of gasoline.
They are all grateful people. Zhou Shuwan's family and Qi Mingyu had helped a lot before, so the five families each donated 100 liters of gasoline as a thank you.
Zhou Shuwan's family received 500 liters, and Qi's family received 500 liters.
With 1000 liters of gasoline per household, whether for their own use or to exchange for supplies, their lives can be greatly improved.
Looking at his cousin Zhipeng and his friends whose cheeks were flushed with excitement, Zhou Shuwan thought that when everyone finds the value of their own existence, they will have the courage to work hard to survive in the end times!
She thought of the thousands of cars parked in the Jiyun Mountain Scenic Area parking lot, including new energy vehicles and gasoline vehicles, and gasoline vehicles accounted for a considerable proportion.
If all the oil can be extracted, it will be a huge harvest.
The weather was bad and Qi Mingyu was also worried about the water level, but if he made a trip just for such a large amount of oil, it would definitely be worth it.
If it really rains, it will only take an hour to drive the motorboat back, so it won’t take too long and you will have enough time to pack up and move.
So Qi Mingyu decided to take his grandmother with him.
The only issues that need to be resolved now are storage and transportation.
Zhou Jianghai thought for a moment and said, "Actually, there's a stainless steel processing factory in the suburbs. We bought the water tank there. Why don't we go take a look?"
During the flood season, there is no shortage of water resources, so water tanks are not valued. There should be quite a few water tanks stored in inventory in the processing plant.
"This person doesn't need to go too far. You guys wait at home. Wanwan and I will go there. We will set off when we come back."
"Okay, be careful."
Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu drove out on a motorboat. The latter was a walking navigation system, so Zhou Shuwan didn't have to worry about the route. He followed the latter, turning left and right in the city, and soon left the city and arrived at the stainless steel processing factory that Zhou's father mentioned.
The processing plant's office building has four or five floors, and the factory area has only two floors. The two men parked the motorboat behind the building, put on diving suits, and entered the water fully armed.
Entering the factory, there are hundreds of stainless steel and plastic water tanks of various sizes.
To store gas, those household plastic water tanks are suitable and are relatively light and can be towed by a motorboat.
The two men selected seven or eight one-ton plastic water tanks, tied them with hemp ropes, dragged them out of the water, and then tied them to the back of the motorboat and went back.
The round trip took only an hour, and everyone was very happy to see that they found the water tank so easily.
It was still the same lineup as that day, but this time several young men had new tasks, so they split into two groups. Zhou Shuwan and Zhou Jianghai went fishing, while Qi Mingyu and cousin Zhipeng went to the parking lot to pump gasoline.
Both sides were given several flares, and they would send them to communicate if anything happened.
Zhong Tiyun and Grandma Pang took Mu Mu to the mountains to dig wild vegetables as usual.
Zhou Shuwan rowed a boat and fished with his father for half a day, and then went up the mountain.
Before, it was Zhong Tiyun and Grandma Pang who went up the mountain, and she had never been up the mountain to take a look.
This time at home, I heard my mother say that many trees were washed down on the mountain due to floods.
She thought about coming to Jiyun Mountain again and taking the opportunity to stock up some wood on the mountain.
Although the fallen trees are wet and the leaves are rotten, the space is absolutely still. Put the wood into the space, wait until the high temperature period and then take it out to dry, and it will be ready-made dry firewood. The large and good varieties can also be used to build houses on the base later.
So, she wandered around the mountain all afternoon.
Avoiding the sight of Grandma Pang and Mu Mu, she picked up all the trees that were knocked down on the mountain and put them into the space, like a little expert in picking up trees.
We walked further and further on the mountain, and went down a small path to Qutan Gorge. Qutan Gorge is a scenic spot in Jiyun Mountain. Like Tianyan Lake, it is also very famous and has the same water source as Tianyan Lake.
In the morning at the stainless steel processing plant, Zhou Shuwan asked Qi Mingyu to leave first and followed behind, taking the opportunity to store more than 30 large-tonnage water tanks in the space.
She reached into the clear water of the canyon and collected another 200 tons of lake water.
Although the lake water cannot be drunk directly, it is more than enough for domestic use.
When the high temperature disaster comes, people are extremely thirsty and will drink any water. The lake water in the canyon is considered a very high-quality and clean water source.
No living things can survive in space. The water in the canyon is very clear and there are many fish. When the water enters the space, many fish also enter the space. However, the moment they enter the space, they all die.
Zhou Shuwan felt a little regretful. It would be great if his space could be used for planting. Then he could raise fish and plant crops in the space and run it into a large farm.
He is a big landlord who has no worries about food and drink.
However, as soon as this thought flashed through her mind, she warned herself not to be too greedy. In this life, she was able to be reborn with her parents and brother, and to have a portable space. This was a rare blessing!
She should be content!
She moved all the fish in the tank into an inflatable swimming pool in the space, there were about a thousand of them.
In the canyon of Qutan Gorge, there are many huge rocks that have been polished very smooth by the water, most of which are square. Zhou Shuwan put all these huge rocks into the space.
After finishing all this, she turned around and returned the same way.
In the evening, she reunited with her mother and the others. Her mother and Grandma Pang also had a good harvest, including two large bags of wild chives and three clucking hens.
Zhou Shuwan was very surprised and walked over to take a look: "Where did this come from?"
Zhong Tiyun was beaming, clearly very happy. "Thanks to Mu Mu. Didn't you give him the slingshot to play with that day? He had a blast playing with it. Just now, when we were digging wild vegetables over there, a few little creatures suddenly emerged from the bushes. They were frightened and screamed and ran around everywhere. Grandma Pang and I couldn't catch them, and we were getting anxious. Then Mu Mu shot these hens with his slingshot. We finally caught them..."
Mu Mu's face turned red due to the praise and she was very excited.
