Chapter 428: Go outside and develop
Red Giant, Red Bank Mountains, Red Bank Base.
As soon as he appeared inside the base, Tianming frowned.
The smell in the air is a bit strange.
The temperature also seems to be a bit high, and it feels hot.
"What's going on? I've only been away for a dozen days, and the environment has become so bad. Tianming found Zheng Hongmi, the person in charge of managing the affairs of the base.
Zheng Hongmi is a capable middle-aged man in his forties, a management talent recruited from non-state departments, with outstanding ability to arrange things on a big ship in an orderly manner.
Out of affirmation of his ability, Tianming put him in charge of managing the affairs of the Red Bank base.
"Boss, it may be that there are too many people in the base, and the ecosystem system cannot maintain the operation of so many people, so recently, the oxygen content of the air in the base has been decreasing, the carbon dioxide concentration has increased, and because of too many electrical equipment, the energy continues to accumulate and spread, and the temperature has also risen, if you don't come again, we are all ready to cut off the power and cool down."
Tianming then remembered that before he left, the construction of the ecosystem in the base was only about half completed, and so many people were added in the later stage, so it was strange that it did not collapse.
"I'll solve the problem."
Three days later, the problem was resolved and the Red Bank base was in normal operation.
In fact, according to the normal procedure, Tianming had to bring in some green plants and soil, install hundreds of sets of oxygen circulation equipment and a large number of heat dissipation equipment -- to complete these tasks, it would take at least ten days of busy work, and Tianming thought of a few simple ways to solve the problem.
The first is the issue of heat dissipation.
In the urban space inside the site, there is a nuclear reactor with a power of 500 megawatts, which supplies the entire site. The energy released in one day is equal to the heat generated by burning tens of thousands of tons of coal, and the base is relatively closed, so it is no wonder that the temperature does not rise.
This problem is also easy to solve, just install some cooling air conditioners that are connected to the outside world.
One hundred air conditioners cooled by liquid nitrogen were quickly installed.
The other is the water and oxygen circulation system. These two systems are not yet self-sufficient. Therefore, in order to solve the problem of water shortage, Tianming directly opened up a water space with a volume of 1 million cubic meters in the mountain, put it into a large water tank made of silver and steel, and filled it with 1 million tons of fresh water...... That's enough for more than 18,000 people in the base to use it for hundreds of days.
The fresh air needed inside the base, Tianming also went to Blue Mercury to get a lot of it, and after compression, it was stored in a hundred space boxes with a space size of 10,000 cubic meters, which were controlled by the priests of the Blue Star people. Once the air quality in the base is not up to standard, as long as the exhaust gas is discharged, and then the fresh air in the space box is released, and one box is released a day, it can be used for hundreds of days.
One hundred days is enough time for the experts and engineers in the Red Bank base to build a complete ecosystem system.
There were also some experts who pulled Tianming and said: "Commander, this base is closed now, and you can't go outside the red giant to investigate." Can you help build a spacer so that the people in the spacesuits can go outside? It is best to get a few more landing vehicles and let the investigators go to the vicinity of the base to collect soil and rock samples. Study the planet. ”
Tianming nodded, he also needed to know if the red giant star had the potential to be transformed, and said, "I can help you build the air barrier first, and I will talk to the country about the inspection car." The State should be able to provide such vehicles. ”
"Okay, thank you, Commander, thank you!" The old expert Long Mingcheng took Tianming's hand and thanked him constantly.
The main role of the air barrier. It is to prevent the harmful components in the atmosphere of the red giant from running into the interior of the base.
When the people in the base want to go out, they need to enter this air barrier first, close the internal door, and then open the door to the outside - this is a bit like the orbital module in the space station, the main function is to ventilate the compartment.
It only took half a day for Tianming to manufacture the air barrier with an area of about 40 square meters, which can arrange 100 planetary explorers or two landing vehicles to go out at a time...... For the time being it is enough.
"When you're done, what's next?"
These days, he is busy back and forth in the three places of small space, blue mercury, and red giant, and the threat is basically cleared, and now there are very few things for him to keep busy.
"Boss, the food in the base is almost finished, and a batch should be replenished. Fruits and vegetables can only be used for five days. Zheng Hongmi hurriedly walked over and said.
Tianming shook his head and sighed, it was really hard to stop.
It just so happened that the harvest period of rice, wheat, corn and other crops in the small space was ripe in these two days, so he went to the small space, slept a lot first, and harvested all the grain in the three grain spaces after waking up.
The grain production is not bad.
1,500 acres of rice, with an average yield of 1,260 kilograms per mu, and a total of 1,890 tons of rice were harvested.
1,000 acres of wheat yields 1,280 kilograms of wheat per mu, with a total harvest of 1,280 tons.
500 acres of corn, the average yield of corn per mu is 3018 kg, and a total of 1509 tons are harvested.
Total grain production: 4,679 tons.
So much food, enough for more than 28,000 people to eat for 3 or 4 months, so after Tianming brought this batch of grain to Blue Mercury and Red Giant, let the logistics department process it, and the problem of rations was solved.
Secondly, there is the problem of vegetables, the little land in the greenhouse space, not much vegetables can be grown, and it is the limit to ensure that three or four thousand people can use it. However, the ecosphere system is being improved in the Red Bank base, and the three-dimensional soilless cultivation system in it can grow a lot of edible vegetables, and if the planting scale is expanded, it is not a big problem to solve the vegetable demand of 1-20,000 people - it will take about two or three months.
"The rest of the work, I may have to go outside for a while, and the number of people working for me is still too small."
The new stage has ended, and Tianming has discussed with a few people a few times about the future plan, but it is still relatively vague, but a few key points have been determined.
The first point is talent.
Talent from all walks of life: architects, engineers, programmers, designers, senior executives, and a large number of workers - he needs these people to work for him, develop the planet, develop technology, and build new homes.
The second point is materials and equipment.
All kinds of materials: in addition to food and water, household goods, all kinds of machines, equipment, vehicles, as well as industrial materials, building materials, decorative materials, covering all aspects - the quantity of demand. It will continue to swell as the population increases.
Tianming needed to set up a separate goods company, a company that was not controlled by the state, and he personally controlled it, and Lan Luo was responsible for managing and purchasing these materials, so that his dependence on the state would be much reduced.
The third point is the security force.
You have to build your own security force, and it's strong enough. 100 Marines are not enough. He also wants to set up a security company and recruit a group of people like bodyguards and retired soldiers. Responsible for defending future interests.
If these people are not strong enough, then send out those soldiers who have learned "fighting spirit" and equip them with advanced weapons. In this way, if anyone or organization dares to reach out, not only will they cut off that hand, but also his head.
In this way, even if his abilities and heterotope planes are exposed in front of the whole world. That's nothing to fear.
After figuring out these three points, Tianming had a preliminary plan in his mind, and the time to go outside for development had come.
……
Six shields for national defense. Underground base.
Tianming came out with Lan Luo and a group of experts.
He sent a large number of supplies back to the Red Bank base, and after working for a while, Tianming found Commissioner Tan, Commander Xu, and Secretary He, and met with them. In a tea room, a tea party was held.
Picking up the teacup, Tianming took a sip of the Longjing tea inside. Unconsciously cocked Erlang's legs, and said with a smile: "Commissioner Tan, Commander Xu, I will not develop in the base in the future." ”
Xu Guoyuan was taken aback, the teacup shook, and a little tea wet his sleeves, and said, "What's wrong?" Xiaoxu, you don't want to cooperate with the country anymore? ”
Commissioner Tan's expression was almost the same, his face changed drastically, and he said: "Xiao Xu, the country hasn't done anything dangerous to you, why did you suddenly say such a thing?" ”
"Xiaoxu, are there any conditions that can be proposed? Why tear your face? ”
Secretary He also persuaded.
Tianming smiled and said: "Where do you want to go, I just think the base is not very convenient, and I just want to go outside to complete some work, and I didn't say that I won't cooperate with the country." ”
Tianming told his plan.
“…… That is, in addition to cooperation in specialists and high-tech, in the future, you will solve the problem of food and other materials yourself, and go out to open a few companies? ”
"Yes, this is a lot of burden on the country, you should be happy, right?"
Happy hell...... Commissioner Tan smiled reluctantly and said, "Then will you come to the base in the future?" Or maybe I don't come to the base very often. ”
"Come, come often." Tianming changed Erlang's legs, leaned back in a more comfortable position and said, "You know the door of space, right?" I'll leave a space gate at the base, and if anything happens in the future, you just need to make a phone call, and I can get to the base in a minute, now, you should rest assured, right? ”
The Door to Space?
Secretary He had seen the teleportation effect of the Space Gate with his own eyes, and immediately said excitedly: "Rest assured, rest assured!" Xiaoxu, you go outside to develop. ”
Commissar Tan and Commander Xu also knew something about the door of space, so they naturally knew the peculiarity of this "door". But they didn't know how many of these doors Tianming had, but there were certainly not many, because every time he left the base, he would take the spatial gate with him. If you really leave one at the base, it is indeed very convenient.
Thinking of this, Committee member Tan and the others were much more relieved. I almost thought that the Alien was going to break with the country.
"Xiaoxu, if you go outside to develop, we have no objection. But pay a little attention to safety, there are a lot of eyes on you outside, be sure not to expose your abilities and the heterogeneous plane, and if you need help, open your mouth, the state will do its best to provide convenience. ”
Commissioner Tan paused, and then said: "Of course, there will definitely be a lot of difficulties and troubles outside compared to the base, and you are a person with superpowers. Therefore, we hope that when you do things, you will be a little careful and not do things that break the law. ”
Tianming nodded: "I know, people don't offend me, I don't offend people." ”
Secretary He hurriedly added: "If someone offends you, call me." ”
Tianming nodded: "Okay." ”
