Nagaril's excavation project was far more complicated than Nick had imagined.
The very next day, they ran into a problem.
The Shallow Soil Layer was easy to deal with. Excavators could dig deep pits through it with hardly any effort.
With Lin Qi's encouragement, Anke Coke Industry Group had redirected part of its R&D resources and production capacity toward civilian applications, achieving fairly good results.
Who said a tank engine couldn't be used in a tractor or construction machinery?
With the addition of engineering interfaces, tank soldiers could also become senior technicians directly, without any difficulty.
Since the Great Ice Age was about to arrive, Anke Coke Industry had once again adjusted its industries and begun developing smaller construction machinery.
After all, there wouldn't be much time left to live on the surface. Underground, environmental and spatial constraints meant they couldn't use machines weighing several, dozens, or even scores of tons as casually as they did now.
With Nick's design added to the mix, everyone now faced a problem.
Should they keep digging down until they reached a certain depth, then begin assembling the Prefabricated Parts? Or should they assemble the Prefabricated Parts first, then carry out construction at the passage interfaces?
To Nick, the problem was like deciding whether to step through a doorway with the left foot or the right foot first. Whether they kept digging or assembled the Prefabricated Parts first, either way would work.
But both sides had their own reasons. Those proposing that they continue digging believed that construction in the shallow layer was extremely easy, so there was no need to waste time on it.
They could simply dig down dozens of meters before considering the issue of sealing the construction site.
The other side, however, proposed assembling everything first and then excavating. They
