Chapter 9 Hydroponic Farm
"The main body of the entire refuge is located ten meters underground."
“It connects the underground layer to the surface through a sloping passage.”
“At the first floor of the basement, near the shelter exit passage, a disinfection room, a garage and a dressing room can be placed to provide services for future shelter access.”
"At the same time, it can also be equipped with a large lifting platform about 20 square meters, enough to carry the vehicle."
"For from the first floor of the underground, to the second floor of the underground, and even deeper underground."
On the laptop, Su Wu planned the space allocation inside the shelter bit by bit.
And after first identifying several necessary basic functional areas.
Facing the first underground floor, there is a full 500 square meters of vast space left. Su Wu thought about it for more than half an hour before finally deciding to divide them into a 200-square-meter rice planting area and a 300-square-meter vegetable planting area.
In the end of material scarcity.
In addition to electricity.
The most important thing is undoubtedly food.
Only by having food and ensuring the most basic survival can we talk about other things.
therefore.
Establishing a self-sufficient food and vegetable production site is the primary event.
The rice and vegetable growing areas built inside the shelter are naturally different from ordinary farmland outside.
It is mainly based on soilless cultivation. Replace sunlight with artificial growth lights, providing a suitable growth environment for rice and vegetables.
At the same time, in order to make full use of every inch of land inside the shelter.
The rice planting area will be divided into four layers in the form of shelves. Vegetable planting is divided into 10 layers. The actual planting area was expanded to 800 square meters and 3,000 square meters respectively.
"More than one acre of rice planting area."
"In an appropriate environment created by artificially, the growth cycle is expected to be reduced to 4 months, and it can produce about 1,600 kilograms of rice."
“Enough to supply the daily needs of at least ten people.”
Su Wu''s expected output. Strictly speaking, it is actually quite conservative. Some high-yield hybrid rice can achieve 1.5 times or even twice the expected yield.
But this is not necessary.
The taste of high-yield hybrid rice is much lower than that of normal rice.
In situations where you can. Su Wu hopes to improve his quality of life as much as possible.
As for the vegetable planting area of ??3,000 square meters and nearly five acres of land.
Su Wu chose to grow varieties that mainly grow faster, lettuce, cabbage, spinach, cabbage and other varieties. Then combine it with a small amount of tomatoes, cucumbers and other common vegetables.
The former focuses on efficiency and output. Mainly used for trading with other shelters outside the world. The latter focuses on quality and is specially used to keep Su Wu to improve his food himself.
The various resources Su Wu has reserved can only be said to be barely enough. Just now, the framework of a personal shelter was built.
Want to live better and expand the size of the shelter.
Continuous foreign trading must be passed.
This is also one of the significance of the existence of vegetable growing areas.
The main varieties of vegetable grown were identified.
Su Wu hesitated for a moment.
We simply added strawberries, grapes, pineapples and other fruit planting plans.
These are also supplied to shelters for daily use. Even considering eating fruits usually may be much more than eating vegetables. The planting area allocated to these fruits is quite vast, with a total of more than 600 square meters.
Highlight a luxury and willfulness.
"That''s it for the time being."
After making all the plans for the underground floor of the shelter, Su Wu stretched.
A rare feeling surged in my heart.
His own refuge finally started to build something.
Although there is only one layer for the time being.
But in an emergency, it was enough for him to survive in it for a long time.
On the premise that the doomsday is coming.
Nothing can make people feel happy and at ease.
With planning, the next construction will no longer be a problem.
The engineering team first made the frame of the large lifting platform. Then it was upgraded through Su Wu using the survival point and officially put into use.
Then the construction team was divided into two.
Excavators and transport vehicles continued to dig the space on the second floor of the underground.
The engineering robot and two construction robots began to be near the lifting platform on the ground floor. Build disinfection rooms, dressing rooms and garages. From time to time in the middle, go to the second floor of the underground to reinforce the newly excavated space.
Considering that the second underground floor is close to the rock layer, the simple excavator is inefficient. Relying on the survival points, it is quite abundant.
Su Wu has specially upgraded a professional gravel car to join the construction team.
After 24 hours of busy life.
Inside the first floor of the shelter, it is made of three robots. Various pipeline lines, partition walls, vents and other infrastructure have been laid.
There are only two soilless cultivation areas left, and construction has not started yet.
May 31.
On the last day of May.
The first underground floor of the refuge is officially completed.
With a full 5 survival points, a set of semi-automatic unmanaged equipment was added to the two planting areas.
Su Wu named the underground floor the hydroponic farm.
Let it start running officially.
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
Plant the corresponding rice, vegetables and fruits according to the planned categories.
Having said that.
It is necessary to mention one thing. Since the problem of growing fruits was not considered in advance, the seeds and seedlings of many fruits were not prepared in advance. You can only go out and buy it on the market temporarily.
Fortunately, these things are basically available in seed stores.
Su Wu didn''t spend much effort. So I used some canned food and grain to trade them all.
No delay in the production of hydroponic farms.
at the same time.
It''s still on this day.
Through the primary artificial intelligence Luo Tianyi, Su Wu searched for a bad news from the Internet that was not known to the outside world for the time being.
Deep in the African Rift Valley, a large tribe lives in the place of residence. At around 9:20 am, the ambient temperature broke through the global historical extreme value in a short period of time, reaching an ultra-high temperature of 155 degrees.
Thousands of people in the entire tribe all died of dehydration under the extreme high temperature, and no one survived.
"The end of the world has come."
Browse through the federal government rescue team and heading to take pictures.
Su Wu vaguely realized that it might not be an isolated case, but the real beginning of the apocalypse.
For a moment, I felt a tremor involuntarily.
There was both tension and a hint of anxiety about the future in my eyes.
No matter how well prepared it is. The fragile body of human beings is as small as dust in the face of a disaster that changes the world.
June 1.
The disaster spreads faster than expected.
This morning.
The second extreme high temperature point appears over the Antarctic.
Countless glaciers are visible at a speed visible to the naked eye. Rapid melting and evaporating.
Above the ocean, hurricanes roar and heavy rains poured.
A few hours later.
The nearest coastal city to Antarctica.
Devoured by the sudden tsunami. There are more than 200,000 people in the entire city, and there is no news.
And it is thousands of miles away.
The coastal city of Dongzhou. At the same time as this tsunami appeared, a long-lasting alarm was sounded.
All TV stations have begun to repeatedly broadcast emergency announcements issued by the federal government.
Residents living in these coastal cities and ports are required to immediately evacuate to the inland highlands for refuge.
But a evacuation operation involving millions, even tens of millions of people.
It is simply impossible to achieve in a short period of time.
The tenth hour after the alarm sounded.
The first evacuated teams have just left the coastal plains. Advance towards the inland highlands.
More people are still stranded in coastal cities.
Race against death.
Waiting for the verdict of fate.
