Chapter 589: The Year Without Summer

Xu Dong just sent away two uninvited guests. Google search reading

Then the door was knocked again.

"Who?"

"Director, there is a volcano ahead, would you like to come out and take a look?"

Ren Li quickly replied.

"Volcano? Isn't it just past Tamna Island? You can see Heshi Mountain from this far away?"

Xu Dong said in surprise.

"It's not Heshi Mountain, it's other volcanoes. There are more than a dozen in a row. They are so spectacular. Everyone ran to the deck to take pictures."

"Let's go over and have a look."

Xu Dong put on his coat and went out.

When we came to the deck, it was indeed crowded with people.

Directly in front of the passenger ship, from north to south, there are more than a dozen mushroom clouds arranged in sequence.

Towering into the sky, very eye-catching.

"It seems that this disaster is very serious. So many volcanoes erupted at the same time. This is too exaggerated."

Xu Dong couldn't help but sigh.

Wang Gong next to him explained smoothly: "Captain Xu, these are just small volcanoes, no more than level 4 at best."

"Oh? What level is He Shishan?"

Xu Dong asked curiously.

"According to the latest observation results, Heshishan's level this time is level 9, which is infinitely close to level 7."

"Level 7? Is level 7 serious?"

"There are eight levels of volcanic eruptions. Do you think it's serious or not? The energy released by Heshishan's eruption is equivalent to a magnitude 7 earthquake. Nisang is no longer suitable for habitation."

"So exaggerated?" Xu Dong was surprised.

"Yes, in fact, there was a seven-level volcanic eruption more than two hundred years ago in history. In the summer of that year, there were even frosts and snowfall in many places, so it was called the year without summer."

"The year without summer? Then next year won't be..."

Wang Gong shook his head: "The volcanic eruption was in April, and now it's the end of October. The most direct impact will be on the next few months. I'm afraid this winter will be very difficult."

"You mean there's a big cold wave?"

The great cold wave that occurred a few years ago still remains in Xu Dong's memory.

"It's not just a big cold wave, but a comprehensive cooling. It is foreseeable that the lowest temperatures in history will be set in various places in the future. The situation is quite serious!"

"What should we do?"

Xu Dong panicked a little.

This is the direct consequence of losing the advantage of rebirth.

Wang Gong didn't answer but asked: "Captain Xu, are there any elderly people in your family?"

"Yes, my parents are still alive."

Xu Dong nodded.

"When they return from their business trip, I suggest you send them to Kangaroo Country to escape the cold as soon as possible. It happens to be summer there. At worst, they should be sent to the south of Guangdong Province."

Wang Gong warned seriously.

"I understand, thanks for reminding me."

Xu Dong said with sincere gratitude.

Time waits not for us!

It seems that I need to find an opportunity to go back. This matter cannot be postponed. The longer it is postponed, the more trouble it will be.

"You're welcome!" Wang Gong waved his hand: "Speaking of which, our country is quite lucky. The northwest wind is blowing right now, and the volcanic ash has been blown to the Pacific Ocean. Otherwise, the consequences will be more serious."

"God bless Daxia." Ren Li interjected.

"You're right to say that."

"Wang Gong, has the Pacific plate entered an active period?"

Xu Dong quickly thought of a rumor.

"I'm not a professional, so I'm afraid I won't be able to speak well."

Wang Gong said modestly.

Xu Dong quickly handed over a cigarette: "Wang Gong, let's just talk briefly, let's just talk about it."

"Okay, just listen to it."

Wang Gong took a deep breath of cigarette and said slowly:

"Some time ago, I heard an old friend who studies geology mention that recently, a set of hypotheses has become very popular within their discipline."

"What hypothesis?" Xu Dong asked cooperatively.

"Actually, the principle is very simple. I believe you all know that the sea level has dropped rapidly in recent years."

Grain gift

"Yes, it is said that it drops ten meters a year."

"Think about it. The sudden loss of so much water on Blue Star must have had a big impact on the movement of the earth's crust. The recent frequent earthquakes and volcanoes are probably due to this."

"You mean there will be another volcanic eruption next?"

"I can only say that the probability is very high."

"Is there an eighth-level volcano on Blue Star?"

Xu Dong asked immediately.

"Yes, and there are three of them. They are Taobo volcano, Toba volcano and Shanshi volcano."

"I have heard of the Sulfur Stone Volcano. What are the other two?"

Xu Dong has read relevant reports.

Each title is more sensational than the last.

"Taobo volcano is on Pacia Island and Toba volcano is in New Zealand. These three volcanoes are located in the Pacific Rim of Volcanoes and Seismic Zones."

Wang Gong introduced.

"Our luck is too bad, right? Two of the three seats were occupied?"

Xu Dong said helplessly.

At the same time, a huge panic arose in my heart.

Wang Gong smiled and reassured: "Don't worry. According to usual practice, after the eruption of the Heshishan volcano, the pressure within the plate has been almost released. There will be no similar threats for at least several decades."

"That's good!"

Xu Dong breathed a sigh of relief.

This fear of the unknown is particularly uncomfortable, and he misses his previous "foresight" very much.

"Haha, but the impact of this volcanic eruption may last for several years."

Wang Gong added.

After calming down, Xu Dong unconsciously assumed the role of a businessman. This was a habit he had developed over the years.

"Wang Gong, do you think this volcanic eruption will lead to a reduction in domestic food production?"

"There will definitely be an impact, but it shouldn't be significant. The plant factory itself has a temperature control system. Unless it encounters an extreme disaster, it will be difficult to have a fundamental impact."

Wang Gong replied cautiously.

Xu Dong nodded.

He thinks this is an opportunity. As long as there is food shortage in the country, Xinke Seaweed will be able to get full official support and may be able to turn losses into profits in advance.

However, everything is still unknown.

After dinner, Xu Dong knocked on Gong Wang's door with a bag of gifts.

Let me focus here. Wang Gong is the chief engineer of the Capital Support Team, equivalent to the deputy captain, and his status is second only to him.

All technical matters are the responsibility of the other party.

He only cares about logistics.

"Captain Xu, why are you here?"

Gong Wang was surprised.

Xu Dongliang showed the bag in his hand:

"I brought you some cigarettes and snacks. Thank you for reminding me this afternoon, otherwise I wouldn't have realized the seriousness of this incident!"

Wang Gong gave him a lot of help today, and he must express his feelings and reasons.

In addition, he also wants to have a good relationship with the other party so that if any emergency occurs at the nuclear power plant, he can receive news in time.

"Too polite."

Hearing the cigarette, Wang Gong's throat surged up and down a few times. He originally planned to refuse, but he could no longer say it.

"Don't be polite to me. I believe you have heard about our family. If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me."

Xu Dong promised, patting his chest.

"Captain Xu, please come in quickly."

"Okay, I just thought of a few more questions and want to ask you in person."

"Don't take it seriously if you ask for advice, let's communicate with each other!"

Wang Gong said modestly.

Although the person in front of him is younger than himself, his position is half a level higher than his own, so he must be given enough respect.

Xu Dong put down the gift and took out a cigarette.

Soon, the room was filled with smoke.

"Captain Xu, what are we talking about?"
