Chapter 5 Mini Excavator

Chapter 5 Mini Excavator

There were three consecutive optional upgrade directions, which made Su Wu's eyes light up.

Needless to say, the diesel version is probably similar to the ordinary mini excavators sold on the market, but it is cheap.

Only two survival points and a few thousand yuan worth of second-hand items are needed to exchange for a brand new mini excavator with a market value of more than one million yuan. If used well, this is a ladder that can allow Su Wu to become a wealthy man.

The only pity is that in the context of the impending apocalypse, the so-called rich people are not that attractive in terms of value.

"There's no rush."

"Currency is almost like a voucher now. It's useless to have too much of it."

"If we barter, the value is there anyway, so we can exchange it anytime."

Su Wu restrained his impulse and turned his attention to the other two options.

Compared with the diesel version, the battery version and the unmanned version are more in line with his current needs.

He couldn't get extra diesel, but electricity, with a geothermal generator in operation, was not likely to be scarce.

As for the unmanned version, it is actually a comprehensive function package, including battery power, unmanned driving and automatic construction.

Among them are newly added unmanned driving and automatic construction.

It is also very important for Su Wu.

After all, Su Wu was alone.

At the same time, due to cost and confidentiality considerations, workers cannot be hired to dig underground shelters.

The emergence of the unmanned version solved his urgent problem.

"Upgrade to unmanned version."

Su Wu did not hesitate too much. The 29 survival points he had gained yesterday gave him confidence and the ability to be a little extravagant.

After a moment of upgrade.

A mini excavator without a driver's seat, with tracks and chassis no longer than 1.5 meters and a sci-fi appearance, appeared in front of Su Wu.

Su Wu took a closer look and found that his laptop could be wirelessly connected to the mini excavator's onboard computer. Then, through the laptop, he could directly give remote instructions to the mini excavator and arrange work tasks.

"Total weight: 1.5 tons."

"When running at full power, it consumes two kilowatt-hours of electricity per hour."

"The onboard battery capacity is 40 degrees, and the maximum charging time is 2 hours."

"The data is pretty good. Compared with the products on the market, it can be considered to have been upgraded by at least half a generation."

There was no rush to start the mini excavator.

Su Wu first checked the basic data of the Doomsday Survival System through its prompts.

It was found that both the battery capacity and charging speed were more than twice that of batteries of the same specifications on the market.

This is not some amazing black technology, but the technical level is high enough to be considered advanced, barely justifying its upgrade cost, which is three times that of the diesel version.

If the social environment is stable, just through the reverse research of the car battery, perhaps you can become a regional tycoon.

pity--

After tinkering with it for a while and satisfying his curiosity, Su Wu ran back to the bedroom and connected the mini excavator with his laptop.

Then he retrieved the shelter design drawings he had found at a second-hand market.

Transmitted to the mini excavator's onboard computer.

After more than ten seconds of data matching.

The onboard computer sends back a successful matching prompt.

Then the mini excavator in the yard started its engine and dug the soil on the ground according to the plan on the design drawing.

And at the same time.

On Su Wu's laptop screen, a virtual underground shelter structure diagram was displayed.

It also includes the outline of the farmhouse on the surface, the geological conditions underground, the location of the excavator, etc.

Even the stage of the project and the estimated remaining excavation time are clearly marked.

Both detailed and clear.

“This is a very high level of automation.”

I found that I seemed to have no room to intervene.

For a moment, Su Wu had the illusion that he was playing a game. He turned his head and looked down through the bedroom window at the mini excavator, which was slowly digging a downward slope on the flat ground in the yard. After a long while, he came back to his senses.

Now is not the time to waste time.

He got up and walked downstairs to the yard.

Su Wu strolled around the area where the mini excavator was working.

Mark the right position.

He picked up an electric hammer and smashed it against the courtyard wall.

The farmyard where he lived was located in the suburbs. The front door of the yard was close to the road, and behind it was a barren rocky beach.

The area it occupies is not big, but it is not small either.

If you go out from the main gate and go around to the rocky beach at the back, you will need to go through a long distance.

to this end.

Su Wu planned to open a new exit on the wall near the rocky beach at the back so that transport vehicles could pass through when dumping soil and rocks.

This was one of the few times he could help in the process of building the shelter.

But it was well planned.

However, there was a slight deviation in the actual implementation.

This seemingly simple job actually requires a lot of physical strength.

It was three hours later when Su Wu, panting and barely able to smash a gap two or three meters wide in the courtyard wall, was so tired that he almost didn't have the strength to lift the electric hammer.

"I will never do this again next time."

Su Wu felt a little regretful that he had underestimated the intensity of the labor.

He leaned against the wall to rest for a while, wiped his sweat, drank a can of Coke to replenish his water, and then simply cleaned up the floor.

Returned to the yard.

The engineering robots in the hospital were almost done building the micro transport vehicle.

Su Wu simply waited there. As soon as the engineering robot was completed, he spent five survival points to upgrade it.

An upgraded micro transporter.

It looks like a large toy.

The entire vehicle is less than two meters long.

Because it is unmanned, there is no cockpit on it, it is just a crawler chassis with a bucket that can carry at most two or three cubic meters of earth and rocks.

[Maximum driving speed: 20 kilometers per hour.]

【Load-bearing capacity: 5 tons.】

【Car battery capacity: 40 degrees. 】

【Maximum continuous operation: 40 hours. 】

As a transporter, its speed is pitifully low, somewhere between a tool and a large toy.

However, Su Wu was quite satisfied with this.

He specially arranged for the engineering robot to make a crawler chassis. He didn't pursue speed. As long as it could run smoothly on mud and piles of rocks and complete the short-distance transportation of soil and rocks, it would be enough.

As for the load capacity, it may be because the track chassis is relatively strong and the engine power is sufficient.

Its upper load-bearing limit reaches 5 tons.

Even if the truck bed is filled with rocks, it can still drive normally without any pressure.

As far as the project of building shelters is concerned, there are almost no shortcomings in this transport vehicle.

No hesitation.

Su Wu skillfully incorporated this newly-produced transport vehicle into the engineering team.

immediately.

Accompanied by the sound of metal bearings turning on the mini transporter.

It slowly drove towards the construction site, and with the help of a mini excavator, it transported and dumped the dirt and gravel that had already piled up into a small hill in the yard onto the rocky beach outside the yard.
