Chapter 438 Digging a Fish Pond
Ke Qin didn't hang up the phone. She put the phone down from her ear and opened Lu Yuan's chat window. Sure enough, she saw the video he had just sent.
The video was only 10 seconds long, and Kozin didn't see much when he watched it for the first time.
But he noticed the sound of metal clashing, so he watched the time when the sound was heard five or six times, and finally saw clearly what the wind blade that Lu Yuan was talking about was.
Turn off the video, "I watched the video, you two are very thoughtful, many people have died from this wind blade just now..."
Ke Qin told Lu Yuan what had just happened in the base, then hung up the phone and notified the base's top management to start a meeting.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuan and Han Ying returned to the space.
Ignoring the terrible situation outside for the moment, the two came to the grassy area.
The changes that occurred in the space after consuming dozens of tons of meteorites made both of them exclaim that it was worth it.
Now you can see half of the mountain.
The thick fog on the meadow had retreated a long way, and the stream that ran through the meadow had expanded from a small section to its entirety.
The stream flows down from the mountain, through the meadow to somewhere unknown.
Although the stream is small, it has plenty of water.
"Wait until the fog retreats a little bit and see how big the entire grassland is. Then we can dig a fish pond by the stream and bring the stream water in."
Lu Yuan pointed at the stream that ran through the grassland.
"Okay, but we need to dig a small puddle in front of the fish pond. If we need water, it will be more convenient to draw it from here."
That small puddle can be used as a temporary water room, and the water overflowing from the puddle will flow into the fish pond for raising fish.
Speaking of fish ponds, Han Ying did not plan to raise livestock and fish because the space had restrictions on the time living things could stay in.
But there are many fish, shrimps and crabs with eggs in her space. She doesn't know whether these fish eggs can be successfully hatched like fertilized eggs.
If that doesn't work, we can only look for an official solution.
Thinking of this, Han Ying asked.
"No, fish are fertilized outside the body. Even if the roe taken out of the fish's belly is alive, it won't hatch into baby fish if it's not fertilized."
Lu Yuan chuckled and gave Han Ying some scientific information.
Although it is a bit regrettable, it is really impossible to hatch in this way.
"Okay, I was overthinking that. If they were fertilized outside the body, wouldn't they not know who the parents were after they hatched? Is that the case for all fish?"
To be honest, Han Ying really doesn't understand these.
She knew about running on land, but she had no idea about swimming in water.
"Not all sharks are like that. Some sharks lay eggs and some lay live young."
Lu Yuan simply took out a video that explained the process of fish reproduction.
"Do you remember the shark crashing into the building when we were in Lefu Jiangnan during the poisonous fog?"
Han Ying originally speculated that the two large sharks that crashed into the building outside might be the parents of the small sharks that were killed inside the building.
But if what Lu Yuan said is true, how would an egg-laying shark know who its own children are?
Of course, the fact that they were Little Shark's parents was just Han Ying's guess at the time and it has not been confirmed.
"I remember, but it didn't hit my house at that time, so I didn't see it."
"But later I heard that they were two great white sharks, one of which was probably the mother of the little white shark in the video. After they were killed, the bodies of the two sharks were dragged away by the authorities. I didn't hear about how they were handled."
At that time, someone in the group posted several videos, in which small white sharks could be seen in the water.
Great white sharks are ovoviviparous, and their young will live with their mothers for a long time before becoming independent.
"So that's how it is. Since the fish eggs in my space can't hatch, what about digging a fish pond?"
Han Ying didn't believe that Lu Yuan was just joking about digging a fish pond.
"I heard that fish eggs are very resilient and can survive for a long time even if they are dried or frozen. As long as there is a chance for them to be fertilized, they can still hatch successfully."
"We naturally don't know what to do, but the authorities will definitely find a way."
The government does not have the conditions to raise fish now, but Lu Yuan believes that the government must have fish eggs that can be successfully hatched.
The two of them climbed up the mountain while talking.
We didn't climb too high because the top of the mountain was still shrouded in thick fog and we couldn't get up at all.
The two simply followed the flow of water and climbed to the mountainside.
However, I couldn't see where the source of the stream was for the time being.
Han Ying guessed that there should be a waterfall or something on the mountain.
As we climbed up the mountain, we saw all kinds of plants, but we didn't see any animals, not even insects.
I originally thought that this extra mountain would be a small world of its own, but I didn't expect it was not.
There are just more plants, but no animals.
I only climbed to the middle of the mountain and didn't find anything special on the mountain.
So the two of them went down the mountain again.
It seems that we have to wait until the top of the mountain appears.
After going down the mountain, I first went to check the germination of hunger-resistant potatoes and new tomatoes.
The potato sprouts have already appeared, and it seems that there are some roots growing underneath.
White sprouts can be seen emerging from the tomato seeds. I think they will grow taller in two days.
Lu Yuan plans to transplant the potato seedlings that have been germinated on the paper towel into the seedling tray so that they will grow better.
Han Ying found a stack of seedling trays from the space.
There are 200 holes on a paper towel, and the potato seedlings that Lu Yuan germinated on the paper towel should be around one or two thousand.
He counted out 10 and put the rest back.
The two used a sieve to sift out some finer soil, put it into the snow tray, and then sprayed a little water on it.
Then the two of them used tweezers to pick up the tiny potato seedlings one by one and gently pressed them into the fine soil.
It took the two of them more than an hour to transplant all the potato seedlings on the paper towel.
After planting all the seeds, nearly 7 xue trays were used, which means about 1,400 seeds.
These are just the potato seedlings that Lu Yuan grew with paper towels. There are also some that are directly mixed with soil and spread into the planting pots.
There should be more than a thousand of them, and some have already sprouted. Once they grow a little bigger, they can be directly moved into planting pots for planting.
There is limited space outside, and we also need to grow mutant corn and tomatoes, so the space available for growing hunger-resistant potatoes is also limited.
Therefore, most of them have to be planted in space in the end.
After taking care of the potato seedlings, he went to see the two pots of mutated seafood mushrooms that Lu Yuan had divided out yesterday.
Only one day had passed, and the mutant seafood mushrooms that were separated from the two pots had actually filled up half of the flower pot.
