Chen Xin was certainly not an irresponsible person, but under the current situation, he really couldn't make any promises to Mo Qingyan.

In fact, there was no commitment between him and Mo Qingyan. All he needed to give Mo Qingyan was emotional recognition and a change in the relationship, from good brothers to lovers.

As for what is really important, it is how to deal with the relationship between him and the two women in the future.

Chen Xin had never had the experience of dating two girls at the same time, and he also never thought that he would sleep in the same bed with Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan at the same time.

This made him a little confused about the new relationship between the three of them at this moment.

So after saying some words of comfort to Mo Qingyan and agreeing to some of Qin Lan's unequal treaties, Chen Xin escaped from his RV in a bit of embarrassment and returned to the construction site.

Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan couldn't help but feel a little bitter about Chen Xin's escape. After all, no woman would want a man to run away on the first day of their relationship.

However, they all generously expressed their understanding and were willing to give Chen Xin and themselves some time to adapt to the change in the relationship between the three of them.

To be honest, it does take time for Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan to adapt to this change in the relationship between the three of them.

After all, even if Qin Lan had already reached an agreement with Mo Qingyan, and the relationship between the three of them was very good before, neither Chen Xin nor Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan had ever imagined that the relationship between the three of them would become what it is now.

So not only Chen Xin needs time to adapt and adjust, but they also need time.

After returning to the construction site, Chen Xin quickly returned his energy to work. Although he had just experienced changes that had a major impact on his life, the work still required him to complete it seriously.

The workers who went home for the New Year holiday yesterday had returned to the construction site early in the morning and were working energetically.

Chen Xin put on his power armor and went down to the bottom of the snow pit. He saw that workers were demolishing the exposed concrete floor under the ground and preparing to lay the foundation for the heating hub.

The entire heating hub is more than ten meters high, which is almost equivalent to a four- or five-story building. A complete set of evaporative heat dissipation devices must be installed inside, making the completed heating hub look like an erected tower. Like an iron tower.

Of course, the current heating hub is just a bunch of parts that have not been put together. Workers need to assemble it bit by bit after laying the foundation.

Chen Xin, who went down to the bottom of the snow pit, saw workers using pneumatic picks to hit the cement on the ground, but the effect was not good and the construction progress was not ideal.

Chen Xin had already expected this situation. After all, with temperatures as low as tens of degrees below zero, the cold had already frozen the ground hard. Even the ice layer condensed from the snow next to it was as hard as granite. If he wanted to break through the With the hard cement floor, it is not an easy task to make a hole large enough in the ground to serve as the foundation for the heating hub.

However, Chen Xin obviously would not just watch the workers waste time and effort slowly smashing the floor. Chen Xin, with his power armor, was able to easily break through the cement on the ground and make holes that met the requirements of the design drawings.

"Get out of the way, let me do it." Chen Xin said to the workers. After asking them to stop working and get out of the way, he squatted down and controlled the robotic arm to aim at the location where the workers had just demolished with a pneumatic pick.

Workers had just hit it here with picks, but there were only a few white spots left on the ground, and there were no signs of breaking.

Apparently the freezing brought by the cold made these already strong cements even stronger and difficult to penetrate.

But this had no effect in front of Chen Xin's robotic arm. As the various tools on the robotic arm worked together, Chen Xin soon cut off a piece of cement on the ground.

Although cement is very hard and cannot be broken with a pneumatic pick, this does not mean that it can withstand cutting by a cutting machine.

After cutting the cement, it does not mean that the work becomes easier, it only means that it is relatively less difficult to deal with.

Because underneath the cement are gravel and soil, these were the foundations filled in when the square was built in the past, and were pressed with a road roller. While ensuring the ground was flat, it also compacted the soil and gravel underneath more tightly.

If it were just like this, it would be enough to let workers dig with hoes, but the cold low temperature turned the soil into frozen soil, which could not be dug casually by manpower.

In fact, Chen Xin asked the workers to try it. Even with the pneumatic pick, it only made a small dent in the gravel and frozen soil. Although it was not useless, if you want to rely on the pneumatic pick to dig into the ground It will take a long time to lay the foundation needed for Chen Xin.

Faced with this situation, Chen Xin could only continue to wave his robotic arm.

As a result, under the astonished eyes of the workers, Chen Xin's robotic arm laid all the foundations needed for the construction of the heating hub on the ground with an efficiency nearly ten times faster than theirs.

"Okay, the foundation has been laid, and the rest of the construction will be left to you." Chen Xin stood up from the ground, feeling that his waist was a little sore, so he told the workers and asked them to continue the construction. Only then climbed out of the snow pit.

Although the workers were very surprised by the working efficiency of Chen Xin's power armor, they could only be envious. When it was their turn to work, they could still only use their own hard-working hands.

The main support columns of the heating hub were buried in the foundation just laid according to the requirements marked by Chen Xin on the drawing. Other supports were assembled according to the drawing, and the main support columns were fixed and kept horizontal and vertical. After that, cement was poured into the foundation.

Of course, the cement used by the workers is no longer the ordinary cement in the past. Although that kind of cement is not unusable, the temperature must be raised above zero. For Chen Xin and others, there is no such construction yet. condition.

Therefore, they use antifreeze cement with antifreeze and water-reducing agent added to ensure that the cement will not freeze due to the water condensing too quickly during use, causing cavities and other phenomena in the cement.

These workers are all skilled workers, so there were no problems in this step. All the support columns were poured with cement smoothly and in accordance with the construction requirements.

And because the weather was too cold, the cement froze as hard as stone in a short time, firmly fixing the support pillars of the heating hub to the ground.
