Doomsday Bunker Upgrade Chapter 55: Plantation upgrade
With the assistance of Mo Qingyan and Qin Lan, Chen Xin's 600 catties of vegetables harvested this month were quickly collected from the field, and packed in a box brought by Qin Lan and placed in the container they opened. in the car.
"Then let's go first, Axin, take care of yourself." At the door of the Chen Xin's refuge, Qin Lan looked at Chen Xin and said something to him, but felt a little difficult to speak.
"Well, Alan, you are the same. Now this kind of environment is no better than before. Your job itself is dangerous enough. Now you must pay more attention to safety." Chen Xin saw that Qin Lan cares about herself, so he was very careful and told her the same. some time.
Qin Lan nodded, and prepared to leave without saying anything, but when she walked out of the refuge gate, she looked back and frowned and said, "Axin, the gate of the refuge should be reinforced, and You should do some disguise outside. As you said, the environment is no longer what it used to be, you... pay more attention to safety."
"I see, I will deal with it later." Chen Xin nodded. Qin Lan said that he was already considering the problem, but it was not listed as the top priority.
Seeing that Chen Xin had listened to his words, Qin Lan also nodded, then got into the car and started the car to leave.
"Ingredients, remember to save some for me when the carrots are harvested next month, and I'll exchange Lafite with you!" When she left, Mo Qingyan still stuck her head out of the car window and bowed to Chen Xin. Order.
"Got it!" Chen Xin responded, watching them walk away, then turned back to the shelter and closed the door again.
Chen Xin, who had returned to the interior of the shelter, could no longer contain his excitement, and ran directly into the planting greenhouse, preparing to upgrade the greenhouse.
"Simple Planting Greenhouse"
"Upgrading plan 1: Increase drip irrigation system, increase hydroponic planting tray, crop yield +10%, irrigation water consumption -10%, upgrade requires 2000 survival points"
"Upgrading plan two: increase planting area, increase lighting efficiency of supplementary light, crop yield +10%, lighting time -10%, upgrade required survival points 3500"
"Do you provide steel, cement, fill lights, micro vacuum pumps, PVC pipes, PVC hydroponic planting trays and other materials for upgrading?"
"Plan 1 materials have been provided, the survival points required to upgrade are reduced by 90%, and the survival points required are 200 points"
"Plan 2 materials have been provided, the survival points required to upgrade are reduced by 90%, and the required survival points are 350 points"
"Scenario 1 and Option 2 meet the upgrade materials at the same time. The survival points required for the upgrade are reduced by 150 points, and the required survival points are 400 points. Do you choose to upgrade?"
In the face of the text written by the system, Chen Xin undoubtedly chose to upgrade, which also used up all the 400 survival points he currently had.
With Chen Xin's choice to upgrade, the entire planting greenhouse has also been shrouded in the upgraded light that Chen Xin has seen twice.
And this time, not only the greenhouse, but also the various materials Chen Xin placed in the storage room and garage were also covered with light, and turned into light spots that converged in the greenhouse.
When the upgraded light in the greenhouse dissipated, what appeared in front of Chen Xin was that the area was doubled, and there was an additional layer of hydroponic planting trays hanging from the ceiling, which seemed to be much more advanced than before. growing greenhouse.
The increase in planting area and the emergence of hydroponic planting trays are very intuitive changes, while greenhouses become more advanced is a more subjective feeling.
After all, in the absence of an improvement in the level of technology, it is largely dependent on people's subjective judgments to distinguish whether something is advanced or backward.
But looking at the upgrade, it’s clean and tidy. The fill light that has been upgraded from a large lamp to a tube has soft and bright lighting, and the fields are regular and tidy. Even the crooked carrots that Chen Xin planted before have been reorganized into a straight line. In the planting greenhouse, Chen Xin really felt a kind of advanced "fan".
The greenhouse in front of me no longer looks like the ordinary shelter cultivation greenhouse that Chen Xin had made at random, but more like a plant cultivation laboratory.
But even so, the role of this greenhouse is still to grow crops and obtain food.
So no matter how good it looks, for Chen Xin, the usefulness of the upgraded greenhouse is the most important thing.
Originally, the ground of Chen Xin's greenhouse was directly made of soil. Before, what was used to divide the land was the ridge left by Chen Xin himself, and there was no plan.
But now the planting area of 200 square meters, the land is evenly divided into eight rectangular pieces of land, which looks a lot more regular.
Standing between the ridges of the field, Chen Xin reached out and grabbed a handful of soil from the ground, rubbed it with his hands, and wanted to check the soil quality.
seems to have affected even the soil during the upgrade, and these soils seem to have also been upgraded.
Originally, the soil in Chen Xin's greenhouse was obtained by him from the nearby farmers' vegetable garden.
But compared with the soil in the current planting greenhouse, the previous soil is obviously grayer in color, and the contrast is quite obvious.
Now the soil in the greenhouse is dark and shiny, and the soil is fine and fluffy. When you pinch it with your hands, you even feel like you want to grab oil, which makes people feel fertile at first glance.
Although Chen Xin didn't know much about soil, he could probably guess that this should be the most fertile black soil in the northern part of the Yan Kingdom.
This is much better than the soil he used before. This natural treasure given to mankind by nature is very suitable for planting crops. The entire Blue Star even has only three black lands.
The changes in the soil gave Chen Xin a deeper understanding of the power of system upgrades. He also did not expect to upgrade the greenhouse to upgrade the soil together, or to upgrade to this black soil that is most suitable for crop growth.
In addition to the changes in soil quality, the most conspicuous change in the greenhouse is of course the hydroponic planting tray hanging from the ceiling.
Chen Xin had a set of hydroponic planting equipment in the materials exchanged before, including hydroponic planting trays, nutrient solution circulation pipes and micro vacuum pumps, but these exchanged equipment are obviously not as good as those provided after the system upgrade equipment of the same type.
Although the hydroponic planting plate is called a plate, it is not actually a plate, but is composed of two parts: a nutrient solution tank and a planting plate.
The hydroponic planting tray exchanged by Chen Xin is a very common plastic tray, while the colonization board is a grid-like board. It looks ordinary, but it feels rough to the touch.
But after the system upgrade, the tray has become an integrated sink, and the planting plate has become a more professional planting plate with one slot, especially the color has been changed to white by the system, which feels good to the touch. They all feel smooth and round, so they look extraordinarily clean and tidy.
A pipe for circulating nutrient solution and a fill light for providing light to the lower plants are also installed on the bracket, so that the lighting of the lower crops will not be affected by the shading of the hydroponic planting tray.
Chen Xin stretched out his hand to hold the bracket hanging from the ceiling and tried to shake it, but found that the bracket was quite stable and did not shake at all. It seems that the quality of the things after the system upgrade is also quite good.
checked the upgraded planting greenhouse, Chen Xin also began to prepare for the use of hydroponic planting system. Although hydroponic planting is hydroponic, it is not really just water.
Although it is said that only water crops can grow, they will not grow well, and the harvest is naturally even more sorry.
Therefore, in normal hydroponic cultivation, it is necessary to add the prepared nutrient solution to the water to provide various trace elements required for crop growth.
Chen Xin naturally knows this, so when he asked Mo Qingyan to help him exchange supplies, in addition to a set of equipment needed for hydroponics, he also exchanged a large bottle of concentrated nutrients liquid.
This nutrient solution is a general-purpose nutrient solution for plant cultivation, and it is a highly concentrated model. According to the instructions on the package, only 30 ml of nutrient solution can be mixed into four liters of nutrient solution.
The capacity of this bottle of highly concentrated nutrient solution is 1.8 liters. According to the area of Chen Xin's current greenhouse, this bottle is enough for him to use for a few years.
After checking everything, he was very satisfied with the planting greenhouse after the system upgrade. Chen Xin prepared the nutrient solution and began to prepare for breeding.
Hydroponic planting is different from soil planting. Soil planting can directly sow the seeds into the soil, and the crops themselves will sprout and take root.
But for hydroponic planting, even if there is a planting plate, it needs to be bred in advance. After the roots and leaves have grown, they can be moved to the nutrient solution tank for planting.
Fortunately, the new plants are cabbage and lettuce. The breeding of these two crops is not complicated. You only need to remove the planting plate, put seeds on the sponge used to fix the plants in each slot, and then water The water and the prepared nutrient solution keep the sponge moist, and you can wait for the seeds to germinate.
When taking the planting plate off the stand, Chen Xin also noticed that there are still some problems with the installation height of the hydroponic planting plate.
Chen Xin's planting greenhouse has a ceiling of 2.5 meters high. Although it feels a little short, Chen Xin used it before without any problems.
However, after the upgrade, a hydroponic planting tray was added. The height of the hydroponic planting tray was about one meter five from the ground, which caused Chen Xin to be unable to straighten the lower crops on the ground. Get up waist.
Although it is said that you have to bend your waist for farming, it will still make people feel uncomfortable if you can’t straighten your waist. Bend all the time.
Fortunately, Chen Xin’s greenhouse is not big, and the land to be planted is nothing more than 200 square meters, which is not too tiring.
After realizing this problem, Chen Xin still thought of the small agricultural machinery he had prepared before.
The materials exchanged with Uncle Ding this time did not include small agricultural machinery. It was not that Chen Xin did not mention it, but Uncle Ding did not send the small agricultural machinery he wanted, but said he would wait. The next time Chen Xin pays the balance of the transaction, he will send what he wants.
Obviously, Uncle Ding is still wary of Chen Xin.
This has nothing to do with trust or not. Even before the disaster, if you ask a bank for a loan or a friend to borrow money, what kind of collateral is needed? Chen Xin's instalment payment transaction method makes the other party somewhat uneasy, so it is normal to keep one hand. .
Chen Xin didn't have any dissatisfaction or opinion about this, but because of this, his work this month will inevitably be a bit harder.
Fortunately, when the system was upgraded, the soil on the ground was also upgraded, but he didn't need to fertilize and dig the ground, just sow the seeds of upland rice.
—————————————————————
After finishing the work of planting the greenhouse, the time has come to evening.
Although it is said that there is no change in light, the night can no longer be called night, but the work and rest time is still the same after all.
After dinner, Chen Xin collapsed on the sofa in the living room, playing the game console a little boringly.
After a whole day of hard work, Chen Xin felt that his muscles were sore. Although he had done a lot of farm work in the past month, he still felt extremely tired today, so he wanted to fight. Two games to relax.
Speaking of it, it’s normal to feel tired today~IndoMTL.com~ After all, I moved all kinds of materials in the morning, and then water cultivation and dry rice planting in the afternoon. Compared with the previous month, the workload is indeed Added a lot.
Fortunately, I don’t need to cultivate the land today, otherwise Chen Xin feels that I’m going to be tired and break his waist.
While rubbing the handles, Chen Xin took a sip from the cup on the side. The faint boiled water in his mouth made him slap his lips. If only he could have a bottle of Fat House Happy Water at this time.
Unfortunately, the sanctuary doesn't have a holy relic such as the Fat House Happy Water, which can eliminate fatigue. Some only have bland and tasteless pure water.
Before the disaster, what Chen Xin mainly collected were survival materials. Although it was not impossible to collect materials such as fat house happy water, Chen Xin didn't think about it at that time, so that now he can't drink it anymore. , Only then will I remember that I was not prepared at all.
As for now that the disaster has come, it may be possible to obtain the Happy Water of the Fat House through material exchange, but I don’t know if there is still stock in the large refuge.
After all, this thing is a consumable. After the disaster strikes, I am afraid that even if the country resumes production, it will not waste resources to produce these non-survival materials, but will use all resources for the production of survival materials. .
Thinking of this, Chen Xin couldn’t help but sigh. Not only is the fat house happy water, but many things he knows will probably disappear with this disaster and become a record in the history book. .
I don't know if human beings can produce these things again after they resume production and rebuild their homes. How many things in the past can be restored?
Chen Xin doesn't know the answer, but he sincerely hopes that if possible, he can restore his old life, even if only a part.
