It's an earthquake! With almost no need to think, Chen Xin had already figured out what happened.
However, the intensity of the earthquake was not high, and it did not last long. It only stopped after a brief shaking.
However, even so, Chen Xin did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly pushed the two outdoor air conditioners back to the shelter, and then inspected the damage to various facilities in the shelter.
Although the shelter was built to the highest standards and theoretically would not collapse even in a magnitude 6 earthquake, Chen Xin could not tell the magnitude of the earthquake just now.
And he's not afraid of ten thousand, he's just afraid of the eventuality. If something goes wrong and he doesn't pay attention, this can really be fatal.
Fortunately, after a round of inspection, the construction quality of this shelter was indeed acceptable, and there were no cracks or other damage. Even Chen Xin turned on the system view and found nothing that needed repair.
"Wow, it seems that the construction team didn't brag. It can indeed withstand a magnitude 6 earthquake." Chen Xin put some displaced or fallen things back into place while praising the engineering team that helped him build the shelter.
It didn't take Chen Xin too long to pack things up. After reorganizing everything, Chen Xin no longer had the mood or energy to fiddle with the two newly recovered outdoor air conditioners.
However, when Chen Xin stacked the two outdoor air conditioners in the original garage, he took a look at the workshop he had converted from the garage and suddenly found that the place was a bit small.
This is just a place designed by Chen Xin to park. Although the car has been moved away, the free space is only about one and a half parking spaces.
It's more than enough to place a workbench, but it would seem a bit crowded if it were to place other things, especially since Chen Xing had just dragged two outdoor air conditioners back, which suddenly made the place feel cramped.
Looking at this seemingly small place, Chen Xin had no idea of upgrading the workshop, but planned to upgrade the storage room.
Even if the workshop is upgraded, it will be upgraded in the direction of improving manufacturing and processing capabilities. Although the space and area will be improved, the degree of improvement is not expected to be too high.
But what Chen Xin needs now is a place to put things. From this point of view, upgrading the storage room is much more appropriate.
Especially these two outdoor air conditioners can only be regarded as appetizers, but he also asked for supplies from the SWAT team.
Thinking of this, Chen Xin naturally came to the door of his storage room.
Chen Xin's storage room is actually not very large, with only ten square meters of space left during the design.
There were six simple iron shelves placed against the wall of the room, filled with various foods that Chen Xin originally stored, as well as supplies exchanged from the SWAT team and Mo Qingyan in the past few months.
Apart from these, the freezer that took up the most space was the freezer he got back from Mo Qingyan's house, which contained the vegetables harvested this month and the uneaten fish.
Originally this place only existed as a food storage room, so naturally it didn't need much space, just enough to put all the food in.
But after Chen Xin obtained the system, the function of the storage room was not limited to storing food. A considerable part of the supplies he exchanged from the SWAT team through Qin Lan were piled on the floor of the storage room, leaving him with nowhere to go.
And this is the result of piling cement in the corner of the public space outside.
"It looks like we need to sort them into categories, one for food and one for supplies." Chen Xin scratched his head as he looked at the overcrowded storage room in front of him.
Although he is not the kind of hamster cancer who is reluctant to throw away anything and likes to hoard a lot of things, he still feels a sense of pride and security when looking at the filled storage room.
Just stuffing them like this is not the best way to store supplies. Chen Xin still plans to store food and other supplies separately, and also classify the supplies.
However, the premise is to expand the storage room and separate at least two spaces.
“tiny storage room”
"Upgrade Plan 1: Expand the storage space, add wall-mounted storage racks, extend the shelf life of food storage, and upgrade to require 800 survival points."
"Upgrade plan two: expand the storage space, separate the material storage room, reduce the chance of material storage aging, and upgrade the required survival points to 1,000"
The upgrade cost is not large, and Chen Xin took a look and found that both upgrade options can expand the area of the existing storage room by 50%, but the first option is still a storage room, but adds shelves to the wall, which can store some Put things on the wall and change the direction to increase space utilization.
As for the second plan, the originally one-room storage room is divided into two rooms, one large and one small. The smaller one is used as a food storage room, and the larger one is used as a material storage room.
After taking a look at it, he saw that both options were pretty good and did not consume much materials. Chen Xin did not hesitate and directly chose both options to upgrade at the same time.
As the supplies were consumed and the green light flashed, the storage room in front of me looked unchanged, but there was an extra door on the innermost wall, and a few more rows made of long strips of boards on the wall. The shelves were completed, and the iron shelves originally placed against the wall were moved to the middle of the storage room, arranged neatly, and two new shelves were also added.
And this is not the biggest change in the storage room. The food and freezers originally placed here have disappeared, replaced by cement and other materials that were originally placed in the public space outside. They are all neatly stacked here. They were previously stacked here. Materials such as steel bars on the ground are piled on the shelves in categories.
"Does the upgrade also come with a warehouse for sorting out? It really saved me a lot of trouble." Looking at the various materials that had been sorted out, Chen Xin nodded with satisfaction.
This really saved him a lot of effort. After all, if he was the only one to organize the warehouse, it would definitely be a big project. If nothing else, it would be difficult to move just a dozen bags of cement and a pile of steel bars. Easy life.
Walking through the shelves to the innermost part of the storage room, he opened the newly added door, and what appeared in front of Chen Xin was a newly expanded space.
The area is only about half of the material storage room outside. Chen Xin's freezer and food that were originally placed outside were moved here.
He reached out and felt it for a while. The temperature of this food storage room was slightly lower than that of the material storage room outside. However, low temperature was also more conducive to food storage. Chen Xin was very satisfied with this.
After checking it again and seeing that all the food was placed on the shelves, he closed the door with satisfaction and exited the storage room. (End of chapter)
