Chapter 1150: Yueqiu Second Base

Morgan's thoughts are being struck by a huge impact, and her business mindset is clashing violently with what she has seen and done.

Daxia is really quite different.

In the desert they grow grain, build roads, and carry out greening.

Everything is breaking their cognition.

During the trip, they also saw the sand‑control team.

Grass grids, net grids, saxaul trees, sand willows……

Sand control has become a mechanical operation: machines make the grids in front, machines plant behind, and the efficiency is extremely high.

After the machines leave, it's people's fine‑tuned work, shading and windbreaking for the planted plants……

Behind them, Morgan and her group saw sprouting plants, as well as the buried drip‑irrigation system in the desert.

Every stretch of road brings a house, and usually a couple lives inside.

They are the forest rangers.

They are responsible for the maintenance of a section of the sand‑control forest.

Further on, what they saw was already a stretch of green.

No one here is running a farm yet.

But it already possesses tremendous vitality.

Add a few dozen kilometers and there will be an RV campsite, making this road not look deserted.

They have always been doing something very meaningful.

This is the experience summed up by that group of foreigners.

Upon arriving at another RV campsite, they first went to file a garbage declaration.

Along the way, what they have dealt with the most is garbage.

Because when you enter the desert, however many items that could generate trash you bring in, you must bring out the same amount when you leave.

And during the journey, any such trash‑generating items you purchase must be declared.

Because the trash list of any item you purchase also has to be added to your list.

When you leave, if it doesn't match, you must go back to find the discrepancy, otherwise you'll be fined to death.

So declaring at each place effectively records your trash situation; if something is off, you can quickly pinpoint where you dropped litter, retrieve it yourself, or have someone bring it back—either works.

This rule is strict: if you conceal or litter upon entry, anyone who spots it can detain you and your vehicle—no escape.

Such a cumbersome garbage‑declaration system is the women's biggest complaint.

Yang Fan and Yang Qihang, however, feel nothing special, because they have contributed to this.

Trash in the desert is easily buried, and under wind and sand it is gradually ground into fragments that can severely pollute the desert.

It directly causes great harm to desert agriculture.

For example, plastic pellets.

Moreover, most of this pollution lies along the roadsides, which are precisely the planned sites for future desert farms.

You can't fake it, because every piece of trash bears a code.

Watching a group of old women go shopping and declare.

Yang Fan and Yang Qihang sat on the RV's rooftop terrace, gazing at the beautiful desert evening scenery.

A mild heat wave didn't make them uncomfortable; instead it gave them a pleasant feeling.

This is the desert, so the day‑night temperature difference is large.

During the day it's unbearably hot, at night it's unbearably cool.

Morning and dusk become the best times.

Their RV is so huge and luxurious that it naturally draws much attention.

When they see it's a group of old men and old women, they feel it's normal.

Because RV travel, this group is the main force.

They have both time and money.

Originally they couldn't drive such a big vehicle, but after autonomous driving arrived, they no longer had that worry.

Even if a malfunction occurs, someone will come to handle it.

Just undergo emergency‑response training and you're set.

When the night grew a little later, someone invited them to a dinner gathering.

Yang Fan and Yang Qihang weren't interested.

The women, however, happily went.

Inside the RV.

Playing the construction progress of the Yueqiu New Base.

This new base has no personnel; it relies entirely on the robots inside the base and remote command from the ground control center.

So far, the new base's construction is proceeding all right.

This provides a large amount of data for the Mars Base.

After a while, the Mars Base will reach Mars orbit.

After releasing some satellites, they will, according to plan, land in the impact crater at the edge of the northern polar ice sea on Mars.

There they will build the first base on Mars.

Yang Fan fiddled with the lunar base hologram.

"Compared to building on the surface, I feel a cavern is more suitable."

"Although the working environment is much more complicated, if we pair it with people, human‑machine cooperation can still solve these difficulties."

Yang Qihang projected the old Yueqiu base.

"Look at their current construction situation!"

"It has already formed an area."

"But up to now, it has been getting slower and slower, because compared to framework construction, the supporting software space cabins are more important."

"This is where the biggest expense lies."

"Without software space cabins, it is hard to eliminate leakage problems under normal pressure."

"So whether it's a karst cave or a framework, we need a new sealing solution."

"Otherwise, relying entirely on transporting software space cabins from Lanxing would be too costly."

Yang Fan pulled it over to take a look.

"I happen to have heard that a company has already released a new type of pressure-resistant structure."

"That kind of building structure has a stronger ability to resist internal high pressure."

"Another company has improved the composition of building materials, then used high temperature to melt the materials, and after the materials cool, they have a very strong sealing effect."

"However, we need to bring some materials from Earth."

"I feel we can make contact, invest a bit, and maybe it can solve many of our problems."

Yang Qihang nodded.

"Then let's go make contact; perhaps we can open up more demands for other companies."

"Maybe someone can solve our problems."

"Maybe they have already researched it—just a spray and the high-pressure sealing effect is done?!"

"The two were so engrossed in their discussion that they didn't notice it had gotten very late, and they also didn't notice a group of women had returned."

"Hearing the two's words, the women were once again greatly shocked."

"So Daxia's space industry has already developed to this point?"

"The Yueqiu base has already been built this big; it should be able to accommodate more people."

"Daxia is about to take off!"

"Desert, aerospace, ocean."

"The Yang Family has also achieved results."

"This base has already been built this big?"

"No wonder Tian Weiwei has always wanted to go."

"I want to go too."

"This Yueqiu farm is actually this big."

"Isn't it already fully capable of meeting immigration needs?"

"After a few women glanced at each other, they did not disturb Yang Fan and the other person."
