A trace of throbbing flashed in Cheng Fangwen's eyes, and he took out a notebook and a calculator from his body and said, "30,000 people, you wait, you let me calculate." ”

Tianming was also silently calculating on the side.

"Worked it out. It takes about 4,600 acres of land to meet the basic food needs of 30,000 people. The calculation formula is as follows: first of all, grain, with 40% rice plus 30% wheat and 30% corn to calculate, 30,000 people every 360 days, according to the amount of 1 kilogram per day, about 10,800 tons of staple food, so much grain, 2,700 acres of land, every 3 months to plant a season can be planted. ”

"The second is vegetables, the average person needs to consume about 1 kilogram of vegetables, but the yield of vegetables is higher than that of grain, about three times higher, so at least 900 acres of vegetable land are needed."

"In addition, there are all kinds of grains and vegetable oils, the average daily consumption per person is about 200g, but the yield of this kind of crops is low, only half of the grain, about 1,000 acres of land can be planted."

“…… Therefore, in total, at least 4,600 acres of land must be reclaimed to ensure the basic needs of 30,000 people on the side of Blue Mercury. ”

More than 4,600 acres of land, so much?

Tianming frowned, he also thought that only 3,000 acres of land was enough.

Cheng Fangwen hurriedly explained to him that there is more than just food that a person eats, such as fruits, biscuits, melon seeds, peanuts, potato chips, and drinks, which are also made from crops grown in the soil. For example, the spicy strips that people love to eat are mainly made of beans - although it is only a snack exclusive to local tycoons.

Coupled with meat, eggs and dairy foods that have not yet been counted, all kinds of foods add up, and the average daily energy intake of a person is converted into rations, which is definitely more than 2 kilograms.

Hearing Cheng Fangwen say this, Tianming understood, it turned out to feed a person. It is really a miracle that so much food is needed, and that there is so little arable land in country H to feed 1.4 billion people.

However, 4,600 acres of land still far exceeded Tianming's expectations, and he thought for a while and said, "I'd better reclaim 3,000 acres of land, my ability space can't consume so much at one time." ”

At present, the volume of Tianming's ability space is about 66 million cubic meters, increasing by an average of one thousandth per day, and maintaining a fixed growth ratio. If you spend a day in a small space, you can increase it by 3 thousandths per day. The growth effect is obvious.

If the energy space consumes too much at one time, it will affect its automatic growth rate, and it is not convenient to use, Tianming does not want to consume too much space.

Next to the greenhouse space, Tianming directly opened up three new spaces from the small space barrier.

The names of the three spaces are "Rice Space", "Wheat Space" and "Corn Space".

The area of the rice space is 1,500 acres, and in order to save space, Tianming set the vacant height of its internal space to two meters and five, and the depth of the underground space is one meter five. In total, it is only four meters tall.

The area of the wheat space is 1,000 acres, and the internal vacant height is the same as the ground depth and the rice space, which is also a total of four meters.

The area of the corn space is 500 acres because of the higher plant height of the corn. Therefore, the neutral height is set to three meters, and the depth of the ground is two meters, for a total of five meters high.

After leveling and crushing the land in the three spaces into sand grains, Tianming had to think about water and fertilizer again.

The area of three spaces is too large. It is very troublesome to build a water tower, and it takes up a lot of area, so it is not very convenient.

So after planning a little bit in advance. Outside the three spaces, Tianming has created an additional "water space", each of which has 100,000 cubic meters, that is, it can hold 100,000 tons of water.

In order to prevent the water in the "water space" from overheating, Tianming also covered the outside of the water space with a layer of black blackout cloth to prevent energy from entering the water space.

In addition to water, fertilizer is also a top priority. Without fertilizer, it is difficult for plants to grow, so after thinking about it, Tianming directly dissolved a large amount of nutrient No. 2 salt into the water space and prepared a nutrient solution, so that in the process of replenishing water, the fertilization work was also completed.

Then the last remaining problem is ventilation.

Rice, wheat, and corn all grow endosperm through guò self-pollination, and after the flowers open, they must be released by external force.

There are two kinds of external forces, wind or insects.

The flowers of rice, wheat and corn are all wind-borne flowers, and the pollination process can be completed automatically when a gust of wind blows.

Like pumpkin, peach blossom, apricot blossom, pear blossom, apple blossom, rape flower, all rely on insect pollination, this kind of flower generally has a lot of honey, strong aroma, large pollen grains and stickiness, called insect flower.

Plants that rely on insect pollination cannot grow in a small space, because there are no insects in a small space, and plants cannot pollinate, and even if they can flower, they will not bear fruit.

Therefore, Tianlin did not plant many fruit trees such as peach trees, pear trees, and apple trees in a small space, but only planted three or five in total, and if you want to eat these fruits, you must pollinate them artificially.

Similarly, there is no wind in the small space, and the breeze of level 3 and 5 is considered a "super storm" in the small space, while the greenhouse space is abnormally closed, and the convection can only be achieved by blowing the fan.

Cheng Fangwen said: "In these three spaces, we need to prepare a few fans to blow the plants regularly, especially in the pollination stage, if there is no wind, the output will definitely be greatly reduced." ”

Tianming thought for a while and said, "It's better to plant the seeds first, and I'll bring the fan over after a while, anyway, I'm not in a hurry to use it now." ”

"yes, okay." Cheng Fangwen nodded.

It took half a day to put water and sprinkle rice in the rice space, plant wheat in the wheat space, and plant corn in the corn space -- to point out that corn has a high vegetable fat content and can be squeezed for oil, so under Cheng Fangwen's construction, the corn seeds planted in Tianming are highly oily seeds, and when these corns grow in the future, they will be able to squeeze a lot of corn oil.

After the farming work was completed, Tianming counted it: the three grain cultivation spaces, plus the water space, consumed about 6.5 million cubic meters of his ability space - now the volume of his ability space has dropped to less than 60 million cubic meters, which is a huge consumption.

There is one more problem. Nearly 30,000 people came to Blue Mercury, and they had to use an average of 30,000 active potions a week, and there were less than 150,000 active potions left in his hand, which meant that he could only use 5 more to worship, and when the active potions ran out, he had to go out.

"The jujube tree now looks more than leaves, and after a while, the jujube is plucked from the tree. After a trip back to Suyun, he developed outside in the future. ”

After eating, he substituted Cheng Fangwen and the foreign bus, and Tianming took Cheng Dong to Blue Mercury.

……

The top deck of the Little Blue Star cruise ship, in the presidential cabin.

"Wow~! The air in this place is so good, it's just a bit cold. Cheng Dong, who had just come to Blue Mercury, sighed.

Seeing that he was shivering coldly, Tianming took a robe for him and asked him to put it on.

The robes are woven with linen cloth, and the craftsmanship of those Mi Ma is quite good. The woven clothes were soft, lightweight, and comfortable, and Tianming was very satisfied, and in order to reward those Mi Ma, each of them was rewarded with a hundred gold doras. They were also promoted to the rank of royal tailors, who specialized in weaving clothes, quilts, etc. for him.

Like the wedding dress that Makuba wore last time, it was woven from hemp silk, and it was gorgeous. It is obviously much better looking than a wedding dress made of cotton silk, with a special luster, and it looks like a fairy after wearing it.

A few Mi Moms burst into tears of excitement. Excitedly, they knelt down to thank them, and when they returned, their faces were full of glory and pride, and even the elders on the ship were much more kind to them.

Tianming led Cheng Dong to a cabin suite next to it.

The layout of the suite is similar to Tianming's own room: 60 square meters, a bed, a table, two chairs, two wardrobes, a bathroom, and other facilities.

"Cheng Dong, this is where you live, if you have any needs, you can tell the service staff on the ship, and they will try their best to meet them. The computer has internet access and can also play, this phone is for you to use, if there is anything, you can call me......"

Cheng Dong took the phone, looked around the facilities in the room, and nodded with satisfaction: "Thank you, Brother Ming, you can go first if you have something, I can take care of myself alone." ”

"Okay, don't go too far, I'll call you at dinner in the evening."

"Hmm."

……

A few days ago, seeing that Makuba was always retching and sleepy for no reason, Lan Luo thought she was sick and wanted to take her to the doctor.

Makuha blushed and grabbed Lan Luo, and said, "No, I think I may have a baby, so I don't need to go to the doctor." ”

"Baby? Are you pregnant? ”

Lan Luo's eyes widened, staring at Makuha's stomach and said.

Makuba nodded shyly: "It should have been more than a month, I think." ”

Lan Luo hurriedly held her hand, let her sit on the edge of the bed, and touched her belly with his hand: "I'm going to give birth to a baby, cute little baby." ”

After thinking about it, Lan Luo raised his head and said, "Then do you want to go outside to raise a baby, it's not very convenient for Blue Mercury here." ”

The time ratio between the earth and Blue Mercury is 1 to 3, if you give birth to a child here, the birth speed of the child is twice as fast as outside, which is equivalent to giving birth to a child in three months of pregnancy, the speed is extraordinary, Lan Luo discussed this issue with Mu Ye, thought about it, Mu Ye shook his head: "Lin Mo is here, I still have a baby here." ”

The hand stroked the slightly bulging belly, and while the curtain leaf had a sweet smile on his face, he began to have different thoughts in his inexplicably tangled heart.

She began to plan for the future of herself, Lin Mo, and the child in her womb.

She is faced with a difficult choice: family or country?

If it was before, she would have no doubt about choosing the country, because she grew up in the base since she was a child, and the education she received included more content in serving the people and serving the country, which made her study hard and work hard, and finally became an excellent civilian and was highly valued by the leadership.

She feels that she lacks nothing, is full of satisfaction, and like her parents, she has made her due contribution to this country and become the strongest backbone of this nation.

But after meeting Lin Mo and coming to Blue Mercury, her thinking gradually changed.

A radical transformation.

She has a happy and warm family, a heroic husband, and now a baby - for the first time in her life, two people who are more important than her parents and her country.

She had to think about it and make a proper choice.

Serving the country is a sacrifice, not only for one's own working time, but even for all one's energy.

Her parents are both scientific research experts at the base and are conscientious. As a child, Makuha's parents talked about work almost every day, and cared little about her - it can be said that there was no time to care for her, and there were cases of not going home 300 days a year - you know, her home was only a 10-minute bicycle ride from the research institute.

In order to work, her parents couldn't even go back to home so close, leaving her alone and lonely.

This leaves some shadows on the curtain leaves, very heavy shadows.

Even if she goes to work and understands her parents' hardships, every time she sees her parents with gray temples buried in work, she feels very uncomfortable, can't you stop and rest?

The last time she married Lin Mo, it was the first time that her father knew that she had a boyfriend, and her mother was stunned, and then she burst into tears and said sorry, she didn't expect her daughters to be so old and have reached the age of talking about marriage.

After marrying Lin Mo, Makuha imagined that she would return to the base and continue to do her civilian work, or go to Lin Mo's unit and watch him fly a war eagle every day to defend the country's airspace.

"Is this the life you want to live?" Makuba asked himself.

She knows the danger of pilots, once something goes wrong with the plane and the pilot mishandles it, it is a life and death, including excellent pilots.

Lin Mo is bold, he always likes to play some difficult actions, and the people who watch it are shocked, every time she sees him take off in a warhawk, it is impossible for her not to worry.

Blue Mercury is okay here, the plane created by the commander with his ability is far more reliable than ordinary aircraft, no problem how to fly, if he returns to the earth, a part of the domestic fighter is unqualified, and the person who is buried may be the person he loves the most.

For the first time, Makuba began to think in his heart: How nice it would be if he could live an ordinary life with Lin Mopu?

Buying a bigger house, planting some flowers at the door, giving birth to two children, a boy and a girl, Lin Mo goes to work every day, drives the whole family out on weekends, and eats dinner made by himself in the evening - how happy should this life be?

Life doesn't have to be soaring, ups and downs, being an ordinary person is actually very good.

This idea took root, sprouted, and was thriving in Makuba's heart, and she began to have a hint of escaping thoughts, escaping the heavy responsibility! I just want to stay in Blue Mercury and give birth to the baby in my belly under the care of my husband.

At the moment, she is just an ordinary woman.

After listening to Makuye's words, Lan Luo also fell into deep trouble: if she was really with that man, then she might have to leave the organization in the future.
