Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

Chapter 591: Under the Mine

In the deepest part of the mine, there are only a few light bulbs that provide a limited light source.

Wet, stuffy, stuffy, noisy, dark... all kinds of bad adjectives that could be thought of have come up in Chen Xin's mind.

This is not because Chen Xin deliberately belittles it, but the fact that the mines hundreds of meters underground is indeed such a bad thing.

Because of the relationship between the deep underground and the lack of air circulation, even before the disaster, the temperature is higher than the ground, and even the deeper you go, the higher the temperature.

This is why in the past, when miners had little safety awareness, these people were more accustomed to stripping their clothes to work.

If it is a traditional mining pick and the like, it is fine, and at most it makes some clanging sounds, but most modern mines use air picks, which make a lot of noise when working.

Working in such an environment, one can imagine how hard it is to work.

However, for the miners who work here, they already feel lucky to have such a job.

In the current environment, it is a very happy thing to be able to have a stable job and be able to get enough allowances to feed a family every month.

And their working conditions have improved a lot today.

The newly issued protective clothing can effectively isolate the hot and humid environment of the underground, and the exoskeleton makes the work that required a lot of physical effort much easier. On the whole, the miners are very satisfied with the current situation.

It is for these reasons that these workers are still trying to get the job done, even in the most dangerous and onerous jobs at the bottom of the mine.

Only today, their work needs to be suspended for a while.

After receiving the instructions from the technician, the workers stopped their work one after another, and looked at the technician and stood with him in a daze. At first glance, it was Chen Xin who was a big man.

They didn't quite understand why they had to stop suddenly.

"Zhao Gong, what's going on?" The foreman among the workers approached the technician and asked him about the specific situation: "Our current schedule is very tight, and the suspension of work will delay the progress!"

"The above sent people to test some things. You don't have to worry about the delay in the construction period." The technician did not explain much, so that the other party would understand that it would not affect their work, then turned to Chen Xin and said, "The test can already be started."

Chen Xin nodded and motioned to the researcher beside him to start the test.

After receiving the instructions from Chen Xin, the researcher signaled the simplified version of the mining Titan to come forward and prepare to start the test.

Seeing the appearance of the mining-type Titan, the workers were all taken aback, apparently taken aback by the strange shape of this thing.

But the researcher obviously didn't care what the workers were thinking. He just instructed the driver to drive the Titan to the place where the workers were still working. The four support legs were opened, and it stood firmly in front of a rock wall.

Then, it raised the pickaxe in its hand.

Seeing this strange-shaped, big spider-like machine in front of them began to hit the rock wall with an air pick at the place where they were working, the workers reacted somewhat and guessed that this might be a mining machine.

This made the workers who saw the mining titan a little excited. Obviously, they were very curious about this new machine, and they were still guessing whether they could use this new thing and what the various parts on it were doing.

It's just that the foreman was not as curious as the workers. He frowned when he saw the work of the machine, went to the researcher who was directing the test, and said to him, "You're playing this way wrong! The position of the air pick is there. Be careful, you guys are very inefficient in playing like this, and it will destroy the parts we have played before!"

"What did you say?" Because of the loud noise of the wind pick, the researcher couldn't hear what the foreman said.

The foreman could only repeat his words aloud, and this time not only the researcher, but also the technician and Chen Xin on the side heard his words.

After listening to the foreman's words, the researcher glanced at the position where the driver who was operating the mining titan was hitting the air pick, which was indeed different from the position the workers had hit before. He hesitated before looking at Chen Xin and asked him for instructions: "Academician ,what should I do now?"

When the researcher asked Chen Xin for instructions, the driver who operated the mining titan also noticed the movement here and stopped the movement in his hand.

Faced with this situation, Chen Xin walked up to the foreman with great interest. After sizing him up and down, he pointed to the mining Titan and asked, "You said he was playing in the wrong position?"

"No, the position of the hole to be punched is very important when the air pick wants to break the rock wall. If the hole is punched well, the stone will split by itself. If it is not punched well, it's just a hole." The foreman said seriously. Nodding his head, he didn't dare to say anything because Chen Xin looked like a big man.

Hearing the foreman's affirmative answer, Chen Xin nodded slightly, glanced at the mining-type titan in front of him, then looked at the foreman again, thought about it and asked him, "I'll let you go, can you do better than him?"

"I can!" The foreman's eyes lit up. He was still confident in his work and professional field, but he hesitated for a while: "I don't know how to use the thing he opened."

"It doesn't matter if you don't know how to use it, let him teach you." After Chen Xin finished speaking, he turned to look at the technician beside him, and asked him, "Is it okay to borrow your workers?"

"Of course there's no problem, but do you really want to let him go? This should be very expensive experimental equipment? What if it breaks?" The technician still maintained the foreman. Although he promised to let him go, he also pointed out possible problems.

Chen Xin didn't care about this, and asked the foreman, "Can you use an exoskeleton?"

"Yes! Although this thing was newly issued not long ago, all of us have already learned to use it." The foreman touched the exoskeleton he was wearing and gave Chen Xin a positive answer.

Hearing what the foreman said, Chen Xin made a decision: "Let the driver change with him, teach him how to use this simplified version of the Titan, and let him test it."

After speaking, as if to prevent the researchers from objecting, Chen Xin added: "It was originally designed for these workers to use labor tools, and let them test by themselves, so that the most intuitive results can be reflected."

"Okay, academician!" The researcher didn't raise any objections, he nodded quickly, and signaled to the driver that he and the foreman exchange.

The driver was a little stunned, but after the researcher explained it, he didn't have any emotions. He was just a test driver for Titan, not a professional miner. It was normal for him to be less proficient in ore mining than others.

So he directly exchanged with the foreman, and enthusiastically gave him instructions on how to operate this simplified version of the mining Titan.
