Early the next morning, Song Dechang brought Tian Zhigang to Area A to pick up Mu Cheng. The three of them drove to the factory that Song Dechang had rented yesterday.

This factory is very large. It was rented before the end of the world and only two factory buildings were built. The rest of the place is still vacant land. Song Dechang went down there and searched for a long time before he found such a factory yesterday.

After walking around inside, Mu Cheng said, "This place is great. Professor Tian, just tell Uncle Song how you want to arrange it. I have one request: your housing must be made of bricks. Prefabricated houses are unsafe, have poor sound insulation, and are uncomfortable for everyone to live in. Uncle Song, go find some workers today so we can build the Falcon Team's soilless cultivation base as soon as possible."

Uncle Song smiled and nodded. "I'm an architect. I have no problem reading and drawing blueprints. We can just hire a few people and start working."

Professor Tian took up pen and paper and began to draw. "The housing will be built in this location. It will be two-story. This way, we can save more space. We don't have many workers at the planting base now, but we need more workers in the back, so we need more housing. We are digging a fish pond here..."

Song Dechang asked curiously, "Fish pond, Professor Tian, are you planning to raise fish?" Wasn't it said to be a planting base?

Professor Tian smiled and replied, "Yes, we raise fish in the pond and grow vegetables above it. The fish's leftover food and feces are exactly the nutrients the vegetables need, and the vegetables can purify the water, keeping the water in the pond clean."

"I've heard of this. It seems to be called a symbiotic system." Before the apocalypse, not many people knew about this symbiotic system, but after the apocalypse, the symbiotic system was gradually promoted. In the Jiangcheng base, almost every wealthy area has a small fish pond with a symbiotic system.

After listening to this, Song Dechang expressed his concerns: "It sounds great, but I can't buy fish now!"

Mu Cheng smiled and said, "Let's build the fish pond first. Don't worry about the fry, I can find them."

Song Dechang immediately said, "But there are no fish in the market, and the water is polluted. Where can we find fish?"

"There is a fish farm in the military camp." Mu Cheng replied with a smile. In fact, there was no need to go to the military camp, because there was one in her space. The fish put in before had already produced a lot of seedlings, so she could just take some out when the time came.

Song Dechang patted his forehead and said, "Oh, right! How could I have forgotten about this? Captain Mu brought us a fish last time, but will they give us fish fry?"

Mu Cheng smiled and replied, "If Arnold asks for it, I'll give it to you."

While the two were talking, Tian Zhigang had already finished drawing the blueprint.

After Mu Cheng and Song Dechang finished looking at the blueprints, Liu Fen said with a smile, "Captain Mu, Xiao Chen and the others told you not to hire outsiders. They can do any job. Just let them build it."

Song Dechang also smiled and said, "That's fine. Our team members don't have to go out on missions during this period. Let's build the planting base first."

Mu Cheng nodded and said, "Okay, thank you all for your hard work."

Tian Zhigang said aloud, "Captain Mu, this is what I thought. We should move here today and plant some sprouts first."

Mu Cheng asked in confusion, "Sprouts?" What is that?

Tian Zhigang explained, "Sprouts are similar to bean sprouts. They grow quickly, but they can only be harvested for three seasons at most. To be honest, this method consumes a lot of seeds. I was thinking that since the base doesn't have any fresh vegetables right now, we could plant some sprouts first. People can't live without vegetables. Without them, their nutrition will be unbalanced, and their body functions will suffer from various problems. So we can plant some sprouts first. When the vegetables we planted are ready to be harvested, we won't have to plant sprouts anymore."
