As new work begins, new materials and supplies will naturally need to be transported domestically.
Therefore, the number of transport planes traveling between Yanguo and Lucia not only did not decrease due to the success of the experiment, but instead became busier.
These transport planes carry not only supplies transported from the country, but also staff who have gone back to visit relatives and have completed their vacation.
During a short seven-day vacation, you will need to spend at least two days on the road to get there and back. If you live further away or in a more remote place, it may take you three or four days to get home. After a brief reunion with your family, you will have to return to a foreign country. No matter who it is, this is a very cruel thing.
But in this era, not only these workers, but more people have chosen the same path. In order to give their families a better life, they choose to leave their families to work hard and use their own hands to work bit by bit. of rebuilding former homes.
Although the separation from family members is unbearable, the temporary separation can be used to rebuild the home and give the family a better life, which is far more important than the temporary reunion.
So although we were reluctant to give up, we still set foot on the job resolutely.
It's just that on today's flight that landed in Lucia, in addition to the returning staff, there was one more person.
After the plane landed, the staff quickly got off the plane, and the ground staff hurriedly unloaded the cargo from the cabin and began to inspect and repair the aircraft.
"It's so cold!" The woman who couldn't see her face in the helmet couldn't help but exclaimed when she walked out of the cabin. She quickly adjusted the values of the protective suit and walked quickly indoors with the others.
She had just flown from China and had not yet adapted to the cold low temperature here in Lucia. Although she was wearing protective clothing, she did not adjust the cold-resistant mode of the protective clothing. She was inevitably affected by the low temperature of more than minus 100 degrees in Lucia. I was shocked and felt a biting chill.
After following the others into the room, the woman felt better. At the same time, she couldn't help but marvel at the harsh environment here.
It was not like she had never been to Lucia before the disaster, but Lucia at that time was not so cold even in winter.
Now Lucia has truly reached the death temperature in the true sense, and dripping water turning into ice is no longer enough to describe this terrible cold.
The woman knew clearly that in this low temperature environment, if her body or skin was directly exposed without protective clothing, she would be directly frostbitten in less than a second.
The speed of frostbite is not much slower than that of putting your hand in liquid nitrogen. It can be said that you will be completely frozen in a matter of minutes.
After all, there is really no difference in terms of frostbite on the human body between temperatures over minus 100 degrees Celsius and temperatures over minus 190 degrees Celsius.
If it were not for the protection of protective clothing, no one would be willing to stay in such an environment for one more second.
Looking at the frost condensed on the helmet of the protective suit, the woman couldn't help but take a deep breath. Recalling the warmth and comfort of her home, she couldn't help but admire these people who came to work in Lucia.
In such a difficult environment, this is truly putting life and death at risk.
Although it is unlikely for strangers to sneak in, the inspection at the base is still very strict.
Soldiers wearing power armor and two heavy-duty mechas guarded the main entrance to the base. Even though they knew every staff member who came back, they still verified their identities one by one, checked their documents, and confirmed that they were correct before letting them in. Enter the base.
Seeing this, the woman quickly took out the pass document and identity certificate she had specially prepared when she took it out, and held it in her hand for inspection.
At temperatures as low as over 100 degrees below zero, even steel will be frozen. The original paper is of course not suitable. The materials used for writing now are made of special materials, some similar to plastic, which can withstand today's This cold weather.
When it was the woman's turn, she handed all the documents and documents in her hand to the inspecting soldier. The man looked through them for a long time, and after confirming that there were no problems with the documents, he asked: "Are you coming from China to visit relatives? Who are your relatives?" ? I'm so proud that I can let you come from China."
It’s no wonder that soldiers have such doubts. After all, in the current environment, it is extremely difficult to visit relatives in the country. There are no passes or permissions for ordinary people, let alone such cross-border visits. This was also the case before the disaster. A rare thing.
This makes people curious about what kind of identity and background the woman has, so that she can come to visit relatives at such a time.
"Academician Chen Xin." The woman smiled sweetly and said a name that surprised the soldier but also took it for granted.

"You don't need to have this support here. After it's placed on the mobile base, all the supports and structures will have to be redone. Load-bearing structures like this will no longer be necessary." Chen Xinzheng and a group of staff faced the huge metal in front of them. The architecture was drawn on the drawings, and we discussed where to discard it.
The huge steel structure support is the base part of the weather controller. The Soviets made it extremely solid back then, but now it has become a burden and hindrance.
"These are indeed not necessary structures, but if they are installed on a mobile base, they still need load-bearing supports, right? Are these brackets not required for other design supports?" A staff member seemed to want to save some materials and intended to put these brackets to use.
Chen Xin thought about this carefully and shook his head: "These brackets are too big. It takes time and effort to disassemble them. Even if they need to be cut, how can you cut such a thick steel frame? Although you should be able to save a little now, But it’s not worth it to save this material and put in more labor.”
When the staff heard what Chen Xin said, they felt that it was true, but they still sighed with reluctance: "Hey, what a pity."
"There is nothing to regret. As long as we can rebuild our homes, these things will only be better in the future." Chen Xin said seriously, and after speaking, he wanted to explain the work to the staff: "Next we have to..."
However, when Chen Xin had just begun to speak, a shout from the side interrupted his words.
Chen Xin turned around and saw a soldier leading a woman wearing protective clothing that looked familiar to him.
In his surprised eyes, the woman opened the helmet of the protective suit, revealing Mo Qingyan's happy and angry face: "A Xin!"
"Qingyan? Why are you here?" Chen Xin was really surprised now. He really didn't expect why Mo Qingyan came to Lucia. How did she come such a long distance?
