#818 - Leaf vein pond
“Beep beep beep ~”
Around ten o'clock at night, the Xiao Wu avatar on Liang Yue's wrist suddenly flashed red.
With a slight movement of his mind, a light screen popped up, displaying Stark's much younger headshot.
After connecting, Stark on the other side of the video was dressed in casual home attire, holding a glass of wine, with a wine cabinet behind him…
“Hey, I heard you went back to Huaxia to farm, buddy?”
“Mm-hmm, I'm in the desert in the Northwest now, but I'm not alone.”
Hearing this, Liang Yue immediately turned the camera and took a circle of the surrounding night scene in response.
“Is this progress fast! Didn't you say you contracted a desert? But what I see is a small city. Is it on some historical site in northwestern Huaxia?”
Although it was late at night on Liang Yue's side, Stark on the other side could still see rich scenery under Xiao Wu's lens.
The continuous city walls, the towering stone pillars, the lights, the figures faintly moving below, and the winding river outside the city and the forest on the river bank.
This is completely different from the Central Asian landscape in Stark's impression, which is arid, barren, and full of yellow sand and wasteland.
“No, this small city was just built by me. The city walls are just to resist the wind and sand. The conditions here are too harsh. No domestic company dares to take on this project.
So, now there are hundreds of robots working for me, but the progress is indeed not slow.”
The overall environment is more suitable for me to explore and survive.”
“Okay, it seems that our world has become your haven. Farming, returning to agriculture and animal husbandry, is indeed a good idea. By the way, there are also many farms for sale in the United States.
Aren't you going to try it?”
“The natural conditions there are too good, there's no point in developing it.”
“…”
“What do you want from me?”
“Well, I heard you're planning to organize an alien tour, taking a group of people to Xandar for a month?”
“Yes.”
“How about adding me?”
“No problem, are you planning to sign up with Pepper?”
“Oh~ I probably can't go. The daily operation of the company really can't do without me. I've been so busy these days, Liang Yue.”
Just then, Pepper's figure suddenly appeared from the side, with a look of regret on her face.
“I think you should go~ Pepper, you should know that the last time Stark went to Xandar by boat, the female companion he brought was Dr. Helen Cho from South Korea.”
Seeing this, Liang Yue smiled and advised.
“Huh!?”
Pepper's face suddenly stiffened upon hearing this, and she looked at Stark with a bit of scrutiny.
“Cough cough, it was just a coincidence that we met at the Asgardian relay station. Dr. Cho was next to me at the time. When she heard that I was going to Xandar, she asked me to take her with me.
At that time, I really couldn't refuse~”
“Hmph! Is that so?”
“Of course! Cough~ Well, I'll hang up first, Liang Yue. Don't forget to call me when the trip starts.”
“Okay, goodbye~”
…
After ending the call with Stark, Liang Yue looked back at the progress of the hundreds of simulated robots in the small city, and then waved his hand again to spread a wave of pasture and medicinal herb seeds, and stimulated them with green liquid energy.
As a result, in just over ten minutes, the pasture that originally occupied about one-tenth of the area of the small city suddenly expanded two or three times.
Looking at the green land that was lush and growing vigorously in the intertwining of darkness and light, Liang Yue thought for a while, and then waved his hand again to spread a piece of saplings.
There were not many saplings planted, about seven or eight per acre.
Among them, there were fruit trees such as apple, orange, pear, peach, and plum, as well as ordinary tree species such as oak, saxaul, poplar, maple, pine, and crabapple, scattered and planted in a staggered manner.
In a moment, they grew from short saplings to thick trees.
These trees were of different heights, but they all had lush branches and leaves and were full of vitality.
The colorful flowers in full bloom in the night, under the illumination of the starry sky and lights, a faint fragrance began to spread throughout the small city.
“It seems that tomorrow~ I have to find someone to order a batch of bees.”
Just then, Meng Xiaoyu's voice came from the side.
Liang Yue turned his head and saw that the little girl was still holding up an arm, using the panoramic sandbox on Xiao Wu's avatar to constantly observe the changes in the small city.
She looked down at the sandbox light screen for a while, and then looked up at the vibrant area in the distance where light and darkness intertwined. The excitement in her eyes could hardly be suppressed.
“Yo~ Not asleep yet?”
Seeing this, Liang Yue smiled and looked at her.
Hearing this, Meng Xiaoyu rolled her eyes at him and said.
“I just finished reporting the work to the superiors and sent over some of the things I saw here today. In addition, the cattle, sheep, horses, chickens, ducks, geese and other livestock needed for your pasture after it is established must also be ordered.
By the way, do you want to dig a few more fish ponds here? Raising fish is secondary, the important thing is to enrich the ecological environment inside this small city, which is good for the future development of the pasture.”
“That makes sense, but with these millions of acres of land, if you dig ponds, there must be at least hundreds of them.”
“It depends on how big you make the ponds. If they are tens of thousands of acres, then about five or six would be enough.”
“It's not necessary to be too big. A pond of more than a hundred acres, about the size of ten standard football fields, dig a hundred of them, and then connect them into a piece with canals, and then connect a few rivers to the outside of the city.”
As he spoke, Liang Yue calculated in his heart and felt that it was indeed necessary.
So he thought about the approximate route and shape of the ponds in his mind, and then turned his sleeve and raised his palm lightly upward.
Under the impetus of a strange and great power, in an instant, a rustling sound was heard in the small city below, and the ground trembled slightly a few times.
Piles of sand and soil began to separate on their own to the surroundings, turning into waves of very small earth waves, not large in amplitude, and not very aggressive, as if a gentle breeze quietly passed through the soil layer under the pasture and medicinal herbs.
In a moment, hundreds of earthen pits about three to five meters deep and a hundred acres in size appeared.
The shapes of these earthen pits were like leaves, scattered throughout the small city.
They were connected to each other by branch-like ditches, and finally converged into a river, uniformly classified as a main river channel, leading to Lop Nur outside the city.
The extra sand and soil were piled up in the small city by Liang Yue in a subtle way, and evenly spread on the ground.
The entire area of millions of acres was raised by a few centimeters, which seemed to have hardly changed much~
Afterwards, Liang Yue separated out hundreds of avatars again, each holding a bucket, scattered in all directions, and began to pour infinite water sources into these ponds.
Just a few dozen buckets of water were poured into each pond, and it was quickly filled in just a few minutes.
Afterwards, clear water flowed along the canals and river channels, interconnected with each other, and finally converged into the main river channel, and then flowed to the outside of the city.
It has to be said that the flow rate of this river channel, which is gathered by hundreds of ponds, is really not small.
The water flow is turbulent and never stops for a moment. It looks like it is a lot larger than the river flowing down from the mountain lake!
The sound of gurgling water faintly began to echo in the small city~
