Chapter 848 What Mars Sees
Although she had doubts in her heart, Lina did not show it on her face. Instead, she smiled and said in a gentle-sounding voice: "Lunch is ready, there are vegetables today. Corn soup. "
"? ? " Now it's Chiba Chengyi's turn to ask, is this woman with long hair and a gentle voice really Lina?
The Lina I usually see is not a womanly man, but she is almost there, and the one in front of me is really full of femininity and a perfect model of a good wife and mother.
There is a big difference between these two people.
Dagu immediately replied: "Okay, I'll go over right away. You take Xiaoguang to wash his hands first."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and said to Qianye Cheng: "You are very lucky. "A few days ago, a pioneer friend sent us newly harvested tender corn, which is a rare delicacy on Mars. Let's try Lina's craftsmanship together."
"Thank you!"
"The clothes are by the bed." Dagu raised his finger, then turned and walked out. Qianye Cheng looked in the direction of the person he pointed at, and said: The space suit-like suit with the same style, material and even color as Dagu's clothing, with excellent airtightness, was placed on the bedside table.
While I was getting dressed, I was also looking around. It was a room, rather a sunroom made of transparent glass. Next door was a huge greenhouse-like flower room, lined up in rows. The shelves are filled with all kinds of flowers and plants, and the colorful flowers are blooming. It seems that this room should be a partition of the flower room, used for resting between work.
The indoors are warm as spring, with bright flowers and plants, but outside is the endless Gobi Desert, deserted and without any greenery. It seems like a restricted area of life, and here is the only hope.
"Mars!" Chiba Cheng sighed with emotion. A long time ago, he envied astronauts being able to go to outer space and even other planets. He thought about traveling in space more than once. To explore the mysteries of the universe, unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, I would actually step on the land of Mars, still in the human Mars city.
Phew!
Chiba Makoto held a bowl of corn and vegetable soup, blew on the hot air, and took a sip along the edge of the bowl. His eyes suddenly lit up. The taste was unexpectedly good. He immediately praised: "It's very good." Drink.”
“Thank you! Drink more, there is still a lot." Lina's voice was so gentle. Although she said this, her eyes never left the little girl who looked like Dagu, taking care of her wholeheartedly, and Dagu next to her also looked after her from time to time. They would look at them with tenderness in their eyes.
The picture is quite beautiful and warm, but Chiba Cheng always feels a little awkward. Before, he saw the heroic Lina, and now she suddenly turned into a good wife and loving mother. It is indeed a little uncomfortable.
Chiba Cheng said without saying anything: "Was she born on Mars?"
"Yes, a Martian baby." Dagu replied: "I don't like to stay on Mars. At home, I always want to come to the flower room to play.”
Then he seemed to think that Chiba Cheng had just arrived and didn’t know the situation here, so he added: “This is one kilometer away from the residential area of the Ellidania Plain. Responsible for cultivating Earth plants to adapt to Mars Surface environment, it took five years to finally allow some plants to be grown in Martian soil.
The clothes we wear are made of linen grown on Mars, because they absorb Martian soil. Rich in metal elements, it is 15% more durable than those grown on the earth, and its seeds can also be used to extract oil, which can reduce the pressure on material supply from the earth, so."
"Dagu!" Lina said in a long voice, "You're here again." Then, she turned to Qianye Cheng and said, "Because there are very few people here, so he wants to talk about research when he sees people. Results. "
Chiba Cheng said quickly: "It's okay, I'm very interested. This is a great thing. Little by little, we will build a barren land into a new place for mankind. home, It would have been unthinkable in 2010. "
Dagu paused to drink the soup. He could tell that the young man meant what he said, which made Dagu completely confirm his guess. Sure enough, he is from another world
As soon as I thought of this, I heard my daughter say in a sweet voice: "We don’t use flowers at home, but there are very beautiful flowers here."
"These are all very beautiful flowers planted by my father. Then my mother will bring Xiaoguang here tomorrow."
"Okay!!!"
Dagu looked at his wife and daughter, his eyes filled with joy. Feeling happy, he said softly: "Although the transformation of the Martian atmosphere has entered the second phase, the outdoor climate is still very harsh. The temperature can reach below zero at night, and it can reach more than ten or twenty degrees at noon. Whether it is flowers, plants or vegetables, Unable to leave the greenhouse, It even needs the soil of the Earth to survive
Almost all the daily food needed by Mars immigrants is transported from the Earth by transport ships. This is also the biggest limitation of the Mars city, so the biggest wish of us Mars immigrants is to make it possible. Beautiful flowers bloom everywhere on Mars, allowing everyone to run, jump and laugh freely."
"There will definitely be a day."
"Yeah!"
After the meal, Dagu took the initiative to take Chiba Makoto to the flower room. While carefully observing and recording the conditions of the flowers and plants, he also told Chiba Makoto about his life on Mars in the past five years. .
At that time, the Martian atmosphere had just begun to transform, and the Elidania Plains residential area one kilometer away was just a small Mars experimental base. Everything, from building materials to eating bowls and chopsticks, The soil for planting has to be transported from the earth over a distance of more than 50 to 400 million kilometers. At such a long distance, mud can be turned into gold.
At that time, what Mars blew was not the big winds of sand that hit people's faces and hurt them, but the terrifying sandstorms with the highest wind speed of more than 100 meters per second, not to mention people, even household items on the earth. Even a small car can be blown away easily.
It was in such a harsh environment that this group of Martian immigrants built a Mars city that could accommodate thousands of people in the desolate Elidania Plains. After its completion, the first phase of Mars' atmospheric transformation was also announced to be completed, and the earth also began the second batch of larger-scale immigrants.
After the completion of the residential area, Dagu and Lina built this ecological plant room outside the residential area. Like many people, they began to cultivate earth plants and turn them into Mars.
Everything from soil, seeds, fertilizers, medicines, etc. have to be transported from the earth. Up to now, some plants can grow and set seeds in the Martian soil mixed with some earth soil, and moxa The Lidanian Plain settlement has also achieved partial self-sufficiency in vegetables.
The next stage goal is to achieve food self-sufficiency, and the ultimate goal is to create an ecosystem on Mars that is the same as the Earth's ecosystem, no longer needing supplies from the Earth.
