Chapter 28 Arrival as Scheduled
50 million tons of liquefied gas, what is this concept?
The urban gas supply in China in 2008 was 36.804 billion cubic meters of natural gas, 35.583 billion cubic meters of artificial gas, and 13.2911 million tons of liquefied petroleum gas.
According to the actual calorific value conversion, 36.804 billion cubic meters of natural gas is equivalent to 27.23 million tons of liquefied gas; 35.583 billion cubic meters of artificial coal gas is equivalent to 26.33 million tons of liquefied gas.
Calculated in this way, the gas consumed nationwide this year is equivalent to 66.85 million tons of liquefied gas, and the per capita consumption per year is 47.75 kilograms of liquefied gas.
This is a profitable business.
Taking Shanmei urban area as an example, the total population is about 800,000, and 38,200 tons of liquefied gas are required to consume a year. The profit per ton of liquefied gas is between 1,000 and 2,000 yuan.
The cost of gas made from garbage is mainly labor, plus patent fees for intellectual property rights, depreciation of site and equipment.
Another huge advantage is that the transportation distance. Traditional gas suppliers need to transport liquefied gas from other places, and the logistics cost is not low.
Moreover, traditional gas suppliers have to face another problem, that is, they are often not gas producers, most of them are second-hand dealers, and their prices and profits are easily affected by the energy market.
Recently, Lin Baijie, who manages the company, and Bao Sikang, general manager of Hailu Gas Company, have conducted some research on the gas market in the urban area.
Gas sales points are currently being deployed, and are preparing to start promotions for canned liquefied gas to various townships and streets in urban areas.
...
Time comes to that day without realizing it.
It was around 11:30 noon.
In a county town in the northwest of Shu Province, as the time for getting off work and school is approaching, the crowds in the streets and alleys become lively.
The owner of the grocery store who was sorting out the shelves suddenly vibrated continuously. He hurriedly opened the flip and found that it was three consecutive text messages.
"At warning? From 1:00 to 4:00 this afternoon, range..." After reading the text message, the grocery store owner was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
However, the signature after the text message deepened his inner trust.
At this moment, many residents with mobile phones saw those prompt messages on the streets and alleys. If one or two people received it, it would not be enough to cause panic. However, almost everyone received warning messages, and people were instantly amplified.
After about ten minutes, the second wave of notification text messages once again intensively attacked all mobile phone users.
At this time, the three major communications operator branches in Shu Province were in a messy scene. The manager in charge had a blue and white expression.
They all know with their butts that this big slaughter is almost a foregone conclusion.
Time passes minute by minute.
Huang Xiuyuan, who was far away in Shanmei, was dealing with a problem in the software laboratory and suddenly felt a noticeable slight vibration.
He raised his watch and the time was frozen at 14:28. In the mineral water bottle next to him, half of the bottle of water was rippling. The vibration lasted for about two minutes before it stopped.
This proved that the incident came as scheduled, and at the same time he felt complicated and while he was sad, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
He ran out of the lab with more than a dozen programmers, and others also ran out of the office and the lab.
"Baijie, organize your employees and pay attention to safety."
Lin Baijie nodded, and everyone looked in shock.
Soon the news came, and the administrator in charge of the official website ran over panting: "Mr. Huang! Mr. Lin! A major incident happened in the northwest of Shu Province, and now it's going crazy on the Internet."
Huang Xiuyuan pretended to be very nervous, took out the phone and called a number in a panic.
"Dudu..."
"Hey, Ayuan, something big happened, it seems that something happened in Maoxian..."
Huang Xiuyuan hurriedly asked, "Where are my mom and grandma?"
"I just called and there was nothing wrong there."
"That's good, is anyone injured in the branch?"
"No, the factory is surrounded by flat ground, and housing is also a container house."
Huang Xiuyuan thought for a while and said, "Dad, I plan to suspend the construction of the Rongcheng branch, and then form a project support team, and do my best."
"Okay, son, we have no choice but to do this." His father also did not hesitate at all.
Ande Town.
Inside the factory of Suiren Branch.
Huang Fuqiang hung up the phone and quickly called Li Feiyang, the branch manager, as well as three contractors, as well as many construction workers.
"Everyone knows what happened in the northwest, we can't sit idly by. Now, based on the principle of voluntaryism, people who are willing to pass by are three times the salary."
Li Feiyang, who was standing beside him, took the opportunity to speak, "If you unfortunately die, each person in Suiren Company will compensate one million."
"Mr. Huang, Mr. Li, stop talking. Even if I don't have money, I will do it." One of the contractors responded with red eyes.
"I'm the first to sign up."
"Add me one."
Many people present were from northwest Sichuan, and their home was theirs. How could they remain indifferent?
Huang Fuqiang shouted: "Everyone brings tools and vehicles and starts to set off."
Considering that the communications were completely cut off now, Huang Fuqiang instructed Li Feiyang to go to the town to purchase a batch of walkie-talkies and buy instant noodles, canned food and ham sausages as much as possible.
Several contractors also went to the gas station and bought a large amount of diesel and gasoline.
Less than an hour and a half.
A team of more than 200 people gathered next to the road towards Dujiangyan in Ande Town. The engineering fleet brought bulldozers, excavators, dump trucks, diesel generators, and a large number of food and daily necessities.
Leading the road with several workers familiar with the road conditions, heading towards Dujiangyan, the closest to Ande Town.
They were almost the fastest-responsive team, among which there were six doctors drawn from Ander Town.
Only two hours have passed at this time.
The sultry weather is full of devastation along the way, and there are many vehicles on the road, which seem to be heading northwest.
The setting sun in the sky made everyone in the convoy feel very heavy.
On National Highway 317, the convoy arrived at Chongyi Town, Dujiangyan, the nearest.
Li Fei was panting and trotted over: "Mr. Huang, I communicated with a few locals. The situation in Chongyi Town is fine, and they can handle it themselves."
"Okay, go to the next town immediately." Huang Fuqiang shouted with the walkie-talkie.
The convoy continued to advance northwest, and as the sun set, they finally entered the urban area of Dujiangyan before dark.
Looking around, there are ruins.
The buildings that are tilted and fallen are covered with cracks of all sizes. A self-rescue team composed of locals is searching for possible survivors in the ruins.
Li Feiyang took action again and communicated with the locals. After understanding, he was not paralyzed because he was vigilant in advance.
Considering that Dujiangyan is not completely paralyzed and is close to Rongcheng, it is estimated that the first team will arrive here soon.
The convoy of Suiren Company quickly cleared the debris from the main road and filled some huge gullies and cracks, and continued to advance along National Highway 317 towards the depths of northwest Sichuan.
After leaving Dujiangyan urban area, they began to encounter big trouble because they entered the mountainous area, and the road was cut off by a landslide.
At this time, night fell and it was pitch black around.
The diesel generator roared, and under the dazzling lights, excavators and bulldozers took turns to break out a path little by little.
Just after they successfully restored more than ten kilometers, they entered Xuankou Town, which is a big corner of the Minjiang River.
At this moment, a convoy appeared behind their convoy, all of which were scrambling camouflage canvas. As soon as the two sides met, they quickly explained the situation to each other.
