Chapter 284, Blue Jie Uranium Mine (Ask for Subscription)

"You don't love your mom anymore, do you?" Zhou Shuqing, who was sharp-eyed, noticed that something was wrong and hurriedly shouted.

The children also woke up like a dream, and then let go of their father in a swarm and ran to Ding Qiunan's side.

Ding Qiunan was happy in his heart, but on the surface, he was still arrogant, unwilling to accept their belated intimate hug, because he was ignored.

It's just that she soon fell too. Xiaoxian They are very powerful, they don't let go when they pestered her, and they kept saying good things.

That's it, Ding Qiunan can't stop it at all.

"Mom smiled, yes!" The two bowls of porridge saw the slight upward range of the corners of his mother's mouth, and immediately screamed.

As a result, Ding Qiunan could no longer suppress the joy in his heart. Especially Xiaoxian, they still want to tickle her, so they can't continue to be angry.

For a while, the ranch was full of cheerful atmosphere. The lambs and calves not far away did not know what was wrong, and they jumped with joy.

After two days at the ranch and two days of weekend time, Zhou Jimin took everyone back to the capital on Sunday evening.

Xiaoxian and the others were also taken back to the capital. There are no children at home, and it is still too quiet. Ding Qiunan was very unaccustomed to it, so he strongly asked to take the children home.

Of course they weren't happy, but even if they were the Demon King of the Mixed World, they couldn't resist Ding Qiunan's suppression of Wuzhi Mountain.

Therefore, one is counted as one, and all of them have been detained and returned to the capital. Well, the third child is the same.

Back at home, the children had fun and ran around the yard. Ah Fu almost broke his tail, looking at its excitement, it is estimated that he misses its little owners too much.

At two o'clock in the morning, it was another antique acquisition. However, the harvest this time was mediocre. Not to mention the last one.

There are not so many leaks, so I can only say that last time it was shit luck. Since you can't pick up the leaks and don't earn too much space energy, let's go to other cities to have a look.

It took two days to go to two big cities in the south, but it was completely blind. Why? Because the antique market over there is even more sluggish, there are no good goods at all.

Therefore, after thinking about it, the only way to look abroad is to look abroad. Because foreign countries are all big landlords, who have collected precious antiques, he only needs to go and bring them back.

For example, those castles and the like, there must be a lot of treasures. On this day, in the space, Zhou Jimin nervously controlled the fuel rods made of uranium-235 and put them into the set reactor.

Close the lid and complete the final inspection. Then, according to the established procedure, pull down the switch and start generating electricity.

As the collision between the atoms began, the reactor finally began to work. The test light next to it instantly lit up, indicating that power generation had begun.

It worked! Zhou Jimin smiled happily. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the follow-up work, he did not cut off the test, but continued to wait.

As long as the effects of various experiments on the reactor are verified, then it will soon be ready for use. Two days later, the Northwest Desert.

Lop Nur no man's land, Loulan monuments. The underground has been simply transformed by Zhou Jimin, and the nuclear power plant is located in this place.

At the same time, two thick wires and cables departed from the power plant in two directions, north and south, heading towards Liu2 Town and 64 Town.

On the outskirts of Liu'er Town in the north, Zhou Jimin set up a high-voltage transformer here after bringing wires and cables over.

He is an electrician himself, and he is very familiar with wires and transformers. After tinkering, he went to Liuer Town and found Jiang Shengbo.

"Lao Jiang, I'm sending you a message."

"What? Where's the electricity? Jiang Shengbo's face was suddenly full of surprise and looked behind Zhou Jimin. But I didn't see anything, and I couldn't help but be disappointed.

"Director Zhou, you're not here to entertain me, are you? I'll tell you, I don't have that much time for you......"

"Ha, Lao Jiang, I'm not kidding, I've built the transformer......"

"Really? You didn't lie to me? Jiang Shengbo's face was full of suspicion. At this time, An Zesheng came in from outside.

"Yo, Jimin, you're here, I was about to call you, I'll tell you...... "Lao An is here to report the good news, the cable has been connected to the capital, and in half a month, it will be ready for testing."

Zhou Jimin was surprised, is it so efficient? You must know that the distance from the capital to Liuer Town is about more than 3,000 kilometers, and even if it is directly brought over, it will take a long time.

He thought it would take three months to complete the original plan. Now it has only taken less than two months, which is really efficient!

However, it is normal to think that this is the army taking the lead in the work, and the efficiency is high. Wu Zhiheng also came to the office at this time, and when he saw Zhou Jimin, he immediately asked in surprise: "Boss, are you here to send electricity?" "The half-month period has also arrived, and according to his boss's character, it is really possible that he is here to send electricity.

It just so happened that he came here because of the lack of supply at the solar power plant, which led to the early end of the experiment again.

The electric switch often jumps, which makes him, the head of the research institute, also worried.

"Yes, as your boss, you must do what you say." After a pause, Zhou Jimin continued: "Lao An, do me a favor, pull the wires, I built a high-voltage transformer thirty kilometers away from the town......" It was only at this time that Jiang Shengbo somewhat believed what Zhou Jimin said.

So, a group of people hurried to make arrangements. The wires and cables in the warehouse were pulled away by the soldiers.

From the main power gate of the town to the high-voltage transformer 30 kilometers away, the construction work was completed in less than half a day.

Jiang Shengbo and the others gathered on the side of the high-voltage transformer, looking at the wires and cables buried in the ground at one end, and fell into deep thought.

They wondered, where did the wires come from? Looking at the direction, it was obviously southwest.

However, the southwest is a vast desert, what power plants can there be? Even if there were, it couldn't have been built in the heart of the desert, right?

When Zhou Jimin was asked, he smiled and said nothing. No matter how much people ask, they only say confidentiality.

And also stressed that do not go into the details of this matter. Everyone muttered in their hearts: As for being so mysterious?

But everyone can't help it, who made this matter beneficial to the town, Zhou Jimin has merit to the town, if you are not obedient and the power is cut off, what should I do?

It is buried more than 50 meters underground, and in some places it is a desert mountain, and it is buried two or three hundred meters underground.

With such depth, Zhou Jimin doesn't believe that Lao An can still do it? After all, it is too difficult to dig in such a deep place.

What's more, if you encounter quicksand, it will be an absolute nightmare for the excavators. Wires and cables have been connected to the town of 62, but the town of 64 has not been fully connected.

However, the small town side is not that complicated. He did it all on his own, which saved a lot of work.

The transformer is placed directly in the original closed power plant, connected to the wires and ready to use.

Therefore, he didn't need to bother to explain to Xu Lei. Anyway, it was barely enough to supply electricity in the city before, and now there is no need to worry about the lack of electricity in the city.

After everything was ready, he returned to the nuclear power plant at the Loulan monument. With the insertion of the fuel rods, the switch turns on and the power supply officially begins.

Hundreds of kilometers away in Liuer Town, Wu Zhiheng's chat window received a message from his boss.

"The power supply has started, and the switch can be turned on." That's super good news.

"Boss, is it really an unlimited supply?"

"Well, as far as your town is concerned, it can consume 5,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity every day, which is more than enough." He didn't say how much kilowatt-hour of electricity could be supplied to the nuclear power plant, but the supply to Liuer Town was definitely sufficient.

"Boss, is it really day and night?"

"Nonsense, don't you believe me?"

"I believe it, boss, you're amazing, awesome!" The two chatted online for a while, and Wu Zhiheng suddenly asked: Boss, where are you?

Is it in the town? The development of technologies such as cables and wireless LANs has greatly facilitated communication, but only over short distances.

It's like being in a small town or like being in the capital. However, he did not receive news of his boss's return to town.

"I'm still out of town, don't ask where it is, you'll know after a while." Zhou Jimin still didn't reveal any news, anyway, it won't be long before the test is completed, and it will be very convenient to communicate with the capital in the future.

"From now on, the solar power plant will serve as a backup power generation ..... the town"

"If you have any information about electricity in the future, you can leave me a message at any time, and I will contact you immediately after I see it." Wu Zhiheng hurriedly said that there was no problem, and outside his office, the cheers of the researchers had already sounded.

The abundant power supply is very stable, which is very obvious from the electricity that flashes or disconnects from the solar power plant from time to time.

The problem of electricity has finally been solved, but the problem of nuclear fuel rods has now become the most important problem that Zhou Jimin needs to solve at present.

Previously, time was pressing, and the nuclear fuel rods he made could only be used for two years. As we all know, the time to replace nuclear fuel rods varies from one nuclear reactor to another.

Zhou Jimin is not very clear about the situation on the polar bear's side, but the nuclear fuel rods on the bald eagle's side are generally replaced every fifteen or twenty years.

He designed a smaller, more efficient reactor with more nuclear fuel rods. At the same time, he can purify more uranium-235 and compress it to make better fuel rods.

However, what he lacks now is uranium. So he set his sights on the vast land of Tuao in Oceania.

As the world's largest uranium ore reserves, Tuao's uranium ore reserves account for 27% of the world's total.

"The land over there is vast, according to the information checked, the Lanjie uranium mine is located two hundred and thirty kilometers east of Darwin, the capital of the Northern Territory, covering an area of 7,860 hectares, and the uranium mine here will only be discovered in five years ...... ocean" His eyes flickered, and after Zhou Jimin checked the information clearly, he suddenly couldn't help it.

With such a huge open-pit mine as the Blue Jie uranium mine, if he didn't pick up these energy sources, it would be a catastrophe.

With such a large open-pit uranium mine, I don't know how many nuclear fuel rods can be made. Immediately, he didn't hold back, and directly drove the supersonic plane and went straight to the Lanjie uranium mine.

The plane slowly landed about 200 kilometers east of Darwin. It's so desolate that people say it's human, and even animals aren't very common.

Mainly near the blue uranium mine, it is an open-pit mine. And uranium ore is a radioactive and dangerous mineral, and animals are not stupid, so naturally they will not come to these desolate places to survive.

Zhou Jimin, dressed in anti-radiation clothing, stepped off the plane and began to explore the area. After walking for a long time, he found the specific location of the Lanjie uranium mine.

It's just that when he was about to start mining uranium ore and take all this energy with him, he suddenly noticed the sound of a propeller in the distance.

That's a helicopter. There are a lot of farms in Tuao, and the big farmers like to buy helicopters to patrol their farms.

It's just that this is obviously a desolate and ownerless place, how can there be planes here? Without waiting for him to hide, he flew straight towards his location as he had already been discovered.

Fortunately, he did a good job of camouflage, and he still wore anti-radiation clothing outside, so he was not afraid that the other party would find anything. Soon, the helicopter stopped not far from him.

The sound of the huge propeller made his ears hurt very much, and the wind and waves were also very strong, if it weren't for the distance, Zhou Jimin felt that if he changed to someone else, he might be blown down.

The power of the other party's helicopter is quite sufficient, and I don't know if it was directly purchased from the military's helicopter and then transformed.

"Hey, are you an alien, please? Why are you here? How did you get here? Two white men in their thirties got out of the helicopter, and the beard of one of them asked vigilantly.

"I'm not an alien, I'm just an explorer, is this your farm?"

"Oh, then why are you wearing clothes like this? Can you show us? ”

"I'm sorry, but I have a contagious disease, but if you don't mind being infected by me, I can open it up and show you....." Swish!

The two white men took a few steps back, their faces even paler. They didn't know what the situation of the infectious disease was, but listening to Zhou Jimin's weak tone, they felt a chill in their hearts.

Fart explorers, I'm afraid they didn't come here to find a short view, right? After all, this place is deserted, and it is normal to die here.

So, the two white men looked at each other, and without saying a word, turned around and boarded the helicopter and fled.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Jimin suddenly laughed dumbly. You're too timid, aren't you? However, just a moment ago, these two people will inevitably be harmed by radiation after they go back.

Because the location where he is located is itself the richest place for uranium mines. Then radioactive contamination is definitely the place to explode.

The two whites didn't do any protection at all, so the hurt was for sure. Radiation is completely invisible, and the effect will only be seen after a long time.

However, he didn't worry too much about the two white men, on the contrary, it was an unexpected surprise. With this brief encounter, he is sure that fewer people will pay attention to it in the future.

It might even be designated as a place of death. Then he started mining. According to the data, open-pit mining began in 1980, and in 1981, the uranium oxide production was 3,300 tons.

Since then, production has increased year by year. After the turn of the millennium, the annual output soared to about 6,000 tons, and continued until 22 years, and the digging was not finished.

It is conceivable how rich the reserves in the blue uranium mine are. Zhou Jimin, who was not disturbed, directly turned the Lanjie uranium mine upside down, and even put the refining furnace on site for refining.

The refined uranium-235 and other uranium are put back into the space for storage, and the waste residue is buried on site. In any case, this place is also a radioactive danger zone, and uranium slag only increases this radiation by dozens of times.

In addition to uranium-235, there are also rare metal elements such as radium, which are all harvested by Zhou Jimin.

In just one week, a lot of rare elements were placed in the space, among which the raw material of the nuclear fuel rod, uranium-235, was purified by him, which is enough for the nuclear power plant at the Loulan monument to be used for tens of thousands of years.

When Zhou Qingxian and the others saw him, they said that they were going to play at Enston Ranch.

"Dad, we're so bored at home, we want to go back to the ranch and play....." The little kids all gathered around, and they were very noisy.

There is no way, they have been suffocated in the capital for almost ten days, and they are almost suffocated. Although here in the capital, you can play with your little friends every day, but it's so boring.

There are games such as throwing handkerchiefs, playing chess, eagles catching chickens, etc., back and forth, and there is nothing new. But it's different on the ranch, not only can you ride a horse and hold a lamb, but you can also go to the sea to catch turtles and abalone, and there are fun and beautiful new things every day, which is always interesting.

"Okay, okay, don't be coquettish, you ask your mother at night, if she lets you go, your father will take you there." Zhou Jimin was full of helplessness, but pushed the problem to Ding Qiunan.

The latter probably didn't want them to go, one is that they are too noisy, and they are still so young, if the adults are not around, what should I do if something happens?

Second, if they are not at home, if the house is too quiet, Ding Qiunan himself will definitely not be able to stand it. Especially now that her belly is slowly getting bigger, her temper is also getting bigger, and she needs company even more.

Sure enough, when he came back from work in the evening, Ding Qiunan heard about it and refused directly.

The little ones are naturally unhappy, but they can't resist, and it's useless to be coquettish. In the end, it was Zhou Jimin who saw them pitiful and said that on the weekend, he would take everyone to the ranch for two days, which calmed the dissatisfaction of the little ones.

At this time, the time has entered August. There are only ten days left until August 15th.
