Chapter 57: The Aid Station
The planned population capacity of the new site is 800,000 at the initial stage of construction.
After absorbing the first batch of international refugees, coupled with the influx of displaced people from the vicinity of the capital city of Wakababa, the permanent population of the entire base has reached nearly 400,000, but this is still not enough for the entire base, and there is still a large number of vacant properties in the city.
In Li Mingyu's view, houses are worthless, and when technology develops to a certain point, there are too many unknown spaces that can be used, whether it is the sky, the sea, or even in the future in space, it can become a suitable place for human habitation.
After all, as long as modern people have three bedrooms and one living room, plus a WIFI, they don't go out much for a month or two when the materials are sufficient.
So Lee Ming-woo set his sights on the people of Wakaba's capital.
Soon a shelter was set up for the people of the capital of Wakaba.
What? I heard that you can't afford to eat at home? Why don't you take a look at the new base, the supplies here are basically free of charge!
What? I heard that there are elderly people and children in your family who are sick? Why don't you come to the new base to have a look, there are free hospitals here, and the treatment package is good!
What? Are your children seven or eight years old and haven't started school yet? Come to the new base, you can go to school for free!
...
Many of the first batch of refugees to be drawn to the new base have become the heads of the various regional shelters, contributing to the promotion of the new base, and at the same time they sincerely hope to help those who are in need.
It had only been two or three days since the shelter was set up that the new base began to flood with people from all over Wakaba.
Most of them are people who are dying of illness, including the elderly, children, and middle-aged people in the prime of life.
In this impoverished country, which has almost no medical system of its own, a simple severe cold can take the life of a healthy person, and it is difficult for them to save their sick relatives other than to find some wild herbs based on their own experience.
And the aid station gave them hope.
Among them, there are many people suffering from highly contagious diseases such as AIDS, which are usually controlled and treated alone as soon as they enter the new base.
But these people are just looking for a hope of survival here with the attitude of giving it a try.
The aid station extended a helping hand to these miserable people, and no matter how serious the illness, all of them were pulled back to the new base by horizontal elevators.
There is a special medical area in the new base, where there are thousands of medical cabins, anyone suffering from a disease only needs to go in and lie down for a while to recover, the medicine of the medical cabin comes from the agricultural cabin, in the northeast of the agricultural cabin area has an agricultural cabin production line specializing in cultivating medicinal materials, and some medicinal materials with a long growth cycle and difficult to cultivate are stationed in the mountains through drones to find wild medicinal materials.
These herbs are stored separately according to their effects and processed by the corresponding biomanufacturing table.
After the failure of the last industrial-grade 3D printer to print genetic drugs, Li Mingyu understood that industrial-grade 3D printers were difficult to handle items that needed to be dispensed like drugs, and all biomanufacturing tables came into being.
The biomanufacturing bench is specially developed for the treatment of animals and plants, which can effectively process the organic molecules of animals and plants, retain the cellular activity of organic molecules to the greatest extent, and through the special vacuum structure in the manufacturing table, different organic molecules can be fully reacted.
The production of agents with biomanufacturing tables is not only large, but also fast.
The new site is able to support the medical needs of such a large population, and the development of the biomanufacturing platform is indispensable.
Outside the medical area, many refugees are waiting in the waiting area to use the medical cabin.
The length of time each patient spends in the medical chamber varies, but depending on the severity of the condition, it usually takes no more than three days.
If the medical cabin doesn't cure you for three days, except for the case of missing arms and legs, then you can basically wait for death.
There are thousands of medical pods in the medical area, but it's still a stretch for the base's growing population.
After all, the refugees attracted before have more or less some underlying diseases, and basically every family has a need for the use of medical cabins, and the medical area determines the order of use of medical cabins according to the length of time the population has been stationed.
The sooner you enter the base, the more you can enjoy the various guarantees provided by the new base.
In the medical area, patients are discussing their conditions.
A middle-aged man who had just arrived from a remote area of Wakaba asked the people around him, "Brother, do you think my cancer can be cured?" ”
The person sitting next to him has been stationed in the new base for more than a week, and he is already very familiar with the entire medical area, and when he heard the newcomer's question, he immediately patted his chest and said: "What is cancer, look at that person, the person in the robe, I tell you, he was brought in a few days ago, AIDS!" ”
"AIDS? Isn't that a terminal illness? ”
"The terminal illness of the fart is all spread by those quacks, I told you that the equipment in the new base is advanced, that person can walk on the ground after lying in the medical cabin for more than two days, and I heard him say that the pathogen of AIDS has been completely eradicated, and now he is ready to treat other complications caused by AIDS in the medical cabin."
The middle-aged man with cancer had an incredulous face: "So amazing? Impossible. ”
Hearing that he was questioned, another middle-aged man immediately said: "What's impossible, let me tell you, the person in charge of our new base is called Li Mingyu, who was the president of the Matrix Technology Co., Ltd. before, and the Matrix Technology Co., Ltd. has heard of it." ”
The cancer patient was stunned, then shook his head.
The middle-aged man was choked by the reaction of the cancer patient, and then said: "Also, there is no electricity in our Wakaba place, and it is normal for you not to know, let me tell you, Mr. Li has a lot of the world's top high-tech in his hands, and even the people of country M have to slap him." ”
"The people of country M are going to slap him? So powerful? Cancer patients reacted immediately when they heard this.
He hadn't heard of Matrix Technology, but he knew about the people of M, and the money of Mmen was the best in the world, and they could be used wherever they went.
The middle-aged man continued proudly: "Let me tell you, Li is always a good person, and he will not oppress us who were born poor, I came here because of tuberculosis before. ”
"A few years ago, a neighboring country discovered a mineral deposit, many foreigners are scrambling to invest in the mine, so they found locals to develop, I went to work as a miner, 10 US dollars a day, but I didn't work for two years before I was found to have tuberculosis, the miner boss drove me away, there was no compensation, I spent all the money in order to treat the disease of tuberculosis, and I didn't see any good."
"The money was spent, my wife ran away with the child, I thought that this life was going to be over like this, but I heard that there is a rescue station here, and any disease can be treated, and I couldn't do it at first, but I don't want money anyway, I don't want a bad life, and I'm not afraid of anything."
"And guess what? This medical cabin is really powerful, I have been lying in it for more than a day, my chest is no longer painful, and my body is also energetic, according to what the cabin says, I will be completely well after lying down again and recovering for a few days, not only will I be cured, but also a penny will be confiscated from me. ”
The more the cancer patient listened, the happier he became, and the more he listened, the more excited he became, and he wished that it would be his turn to use the medical cabin soon.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the screen in the waiting area finally showed the number of cancer patients waiting in line, and the cancer patients stood up excitedly and followed the crowd to the medical area.
Walking to the place where the medical cabin is placed, there are rows of instruments inserted into countless pipelines in a large open space, and countless liquids of different colors can be seen flowing in the transparent pipeline, and at the other end of the pipeline is a human-high medical cabin.
At this time, a row of medical cabins has opened the hatches, and several intelligent robots are quickly cleaning the interior of the bulkhead.
The inside of the bulkhead was quickly cleaned, and the cancer patient slowly sat down in the chamber wall according to the voice instructions of the medical cabin, and then the bulkhead slowly closed, and the world fell into total darkness.
In the darkness, a cancer patient with his eyes closed suddenly felt a light on the bulkhead in front of him, and immediately opened his eyes.
A screen appeared on the bulkhead, showing all kinds of data that cancer patients couldn't understand, but a lot of the data was red, and his intuition told him that this red data represented his physical condition, and the situation was not easy to be optimistic.
A cool mint-like gas slowly filled the cabin, and the cancer patient suddenly felt heavy eyelids while breathing the gas in the cabin, and soon fell asleep.
After the cancer patient fell asleep, a large amount of data in the cabin began to flash, and various data such as the patient's heart rate and blood pressure were transmitted to the treatment terminal, and soon the intelligent terminal determined the appropriate treatment plan according to the patient's physical condition.
After the treatment plan is determined, the machine flashes and gives various instructions, and various doses of drugs are entered into the medical chamber along the transparent line, and then injected into the heart of the cancer patient.
The precisely proportioned potion quickly spread around the body through blood circulation, and many of the redness indicators on the screen immediately began to dim and gradually turned green.
A large timer appeared on the wall outside the medical chamber.
39 hours, 17 minutes and 44 seconds.
This represents the time it takes for the patient to be cured, and after 39 hours, the cancer patient will be completely cured.
While the medical area was treating patients with various diseases in an orderly manner, a group of uninvited guests came outside the base.
Several military jeeps rushed all the way over, and several black men with guns got out of the jeeps, and a black officer wearing military uniform with gunshot wounds was helped out of the car.
The black soldier walked to the gate of the base, and without saying a word, there was a burst of fire at the gate of the base.
The gunfire immediately caused a riot among the people inside the base.
The bullet hit the silver-gray wall of the base without even the slightest trace, and the black soldier glanced at the base in surprise, and then took out the grenade hanging from his waist.
Li Mingyu, who was drinking coffee in the Central Building, saw the movements of the black man, and took a sip of coffee and sprayed it all on the snow-white sofa.
"! Are these people so tigers? ”
Li Mingyu almost ran to the electronic screen and stopped the automatic counterattack program with a slap.
If he was a second late, the high-energy particle cannon of the new base would blast the blacks at the door to slag.
The electronic screen was showing the identity information of the wounded officer:
Commander of the Congon state northeast of Wakaba.
If he kills the commander of another country with one shot, it will really be an international dispute.
A long barrel stretched out of the wall of the base, and as soon as it was fired, it hit the black soldier in the chest, and the electric ions close to the limit of the human body quickly paralyzed all the senses of the black soldier, only to see him convulse for a moment and then fall unconscious.
Seeing that his companion was injured, several other soldiers took out their guns behind their backs and prepared to shoot, Li Mingyu looked at these barbarians who started without saying a word, twisted his head with a headache, and reluctantly pressed the launch button.
A few bursts of bullets fired, and the soldiers immediately lost consciousness and lay down beside their commander.
The commander of the Gangjin country was barely conscious at this time, and in the fog, he only saw his soldiers fall one after another.
A strange ball floated down from the sky.
"Is it a hallucination? Are you going to die here? ”
