Everything is difficult at the beginning, but for Lin Quan, things don't seem to be exactly like this. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking at the sand forest in front of him, Lin Quan frowned, these are all planted by the local government, there are many types, most of them are plants suitable for the growth of the Sahara Desert, among which strange willows, olive and horse trees are more common, Lin Quan originally planned to plant some poplar forests, but in the end it was gone.

The plants were planted with a little water, and in the desert area, water was more important than gold, because Lin Quan was going to settle here, so the small piece of oasis water he had chosen was not used for irrigation, and there was not enough water to irrigate it.

At this time, the Tailu River in the north is not completely dry, so the water is transported from the Tailu River, which is in the dry season at this time, and the water of the Tailu River will disappear completely in March at the driest time.

Lin Quan's residence is not particularly gorgeous, he hired a Chinese construction team to renovate his residence, including a two-story house with a desert back wall, a small manor with a fence, plus two solar generators and a well, this is his current nest.

This house cost him 100,000 yuan, plus other equipment, a total of 200,000 yuan for this set, most of which was reimbursed by the government, and he paid about 50,000 yuan out of his own pocket.

All this money was earned by him at TSNY before, and he took it out and spent it before he could cover it in his hand, so Lin Quan's heart was actually very distressed.

Denise came to help when the house was being built, their archaeological site was not close to Lin Quan, it was farther than Lin Quan's base to Zhao Cheng, and one of the ruins they found was very large-scale, which seemed to be something left over from ancient Egyptian culture.

And because at this time there is still international controversy about the time of the creation of the Sahara Desert, and there is also a huge controversy about the spread rate of the Sahara Desert, if this relic can be excavated and there are new discoveries, it will play a very big role in international academic research, so Denise They can be regarded as famous this time, led by the Nigerien government, together with UNESCO, sent a special team to their archaeological site to follow up their research in detail.

Therefore, Denise slowly began to get busy, and gradually did not come to Lin Quan.

She didn't come, Lin Quan didn't have time to pass, not that he didn't have time, the main thing was that there was no transportation, the place where he lived was not far from Highway 11, but the traffic flow on Highway 11 was not very large, and he didn't have a car himself, so it was difficult to say that he could go wherever he wanted, and Zhao Cheng and Denise had their own cars, which made Lin Quan very envious.

From January to February, it is the coolest time of the year in Niger, in addition to the sun exposure during the day, the rapid rise in the ground temperature will feel the heat accident, the temperature at other times is acceptable, but the temperature in the desert area is difficult to fix, so it will feel very cold at night, Lin Quan has been frozen several times at night to wake up, wake up and see, the room temperature shown by the thermometer in the house is below 5 degrees Celsius, so he hurriedly got up to find a thick quilt to cover.

This is still his house after a special design, the walls of the house are relatively thick, the thickness of the walls of the general building is about 20-30 cm, but in the desert, the thickness of the house needs to reach half a meter, and the windows are relatively small, so that the room temperature can be kept within a small fluctuation range, the sun does not shine in during the day, the temperature transmission has to pass through the thick wall, when it reaches the innermost layer, the outside temperature drops, and at night when the outside temperature drops, The temperature emitted from the inside of the walls makes the interior hotter than the outside.

This principle is easy to understand, but the effect does not seem to be particularly ideal.

Lin Quan lives in the house, and feels that such a huge temperature difference is a little unbearable, those plants are exposed to the sun outside, and they will be frozen at night, which is estimated to be not good, fortunately, the water content of desert plants is not very high, otherwise the temperature at night is too low, after falling below zero Celsius, the water in the plants is likely to freeze, which often occurs in the winter in southern China.

It can be seen that in order to grow crops here, there is one problem that needs to be solved, and that is the temperature difference between day and night.

Plants also need to photosynthesize at night, although the moonlight is weaker than the sun, but it is also very important for plants, but too low temperature will increase the consumption of plants, so that their normal life activities will slow down, so Lin Quan's first thought is the vegetable greenhouse.

However, greenhouses are often used to keep warm in temperate or cold regions, and if you build a greenhouse in the tropics, eighty percent of the plants in it will be burned to death, right? The temperature is too high, and they can't stand it too!

Still, he tried to grow a few plants, some vegetables.

These plants are all selected tropical plants, such as pineapples, bananas, etc., the location he chose is close to the water source and the area with soil, after planting, the water here is relatively sufficient, plus the plants that existed here before also grabbed and produced a part of the soil, and the rotten plant leaves also contain some minerals, such as potassium, sodium, magnesium and other elements, these plants are also needed for growth.

He planted some vegetables in the sunny part of his house, which would be hit by the sun in the morning, but after the afternoon, the sun's rays would be blocked by the house, so that the ground would not overheat and burn all the plants to death.

And after a difficult day, at night, this is the time for Lin Quan to play.

The piece of ancient jade of unknown origin on his body has the ability to enhance the growth of plants, with the help of the effect of moonlight, Lin Quan took out his ancient jade, the surrounding plants are almost growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, a few small pineapple seedlings are dying in the sun during the day, but at this time it is like a second spring, quickly absorbing the surrounding water and nutrients, quickly sprouting, leaves and small branches grow quickly, and Lin Quan found that the closer to this piece of ancient jade, the faster the plants grow, And Gu Yu's scope of action seems to be not small, in addition to the plants he specially planted are growing well, those plants that have been dried out of the sun and are almost buried by the yellow sand among the plants planted by the government, the plants close to him are also recovering their vitality.

This is a bonus, although these plants are not planted in the forest, but if these plants can survive, there will be a small oasis behind his front house in the future, and other functions can not be said, but resist the wind and sand, by the way, provide some shade, it looks good.

So he didn't ignore these plants, but still took care of them a little, let them get in the light of the ancient jade, after absorbing the light of the ancient jade, they probably won't die, and a surviving tree means a water source, which is also a wealth.
