"Selena, are you there? Do you want to go out and tour the base together?"
At this time, there was a knock on Serena's door.
After opening the door, it turned out to be Michael. She nodded and said, "Okay, but I only have about three hours. I have to report to the patrol security department of the base soon."
Michael was also surprised when he heard this: "You want to go too? I just reported to the superpower group, and Nuwa also assigned me this task. It's great that we can go together!"
Serena was very happy that her friend would go with her, so she nodded in agreement.
Grandpa just left with Miss Su. It seems they were discussing something. I don’t know when they will be back.
She sent a message to her grandfather before leaving the residential complex.
The space base's mode of transportation has abandoned traditional fuel vehicles and changed to aerial rail magnetic levitation vehicles. It has a very cyberpunk technological feel, showing that the base's technological and infrastructure capabilities are also very strong.
Nuwa explained to the two that basically every residential area is equipped with a maglev car station, and if you want to go somewhere, you can make an appointment in advance.
In this way, the base's intelligent system can deploy equipment from nearby locations via the best route in a short period of time and then send it to the target site. The system is very advanced.
So Selena first made an appointment for the maglev car through Nuwa, and then the two of them arrived at the station and found that the maglev car had just arrived.
The two walked into the clean and new carriage and found that there were already several people sitting inside. When they saw the two people come in, they nodded and smiled, and then turned to the mobile phones in their hands.
The place the two wanted to go was the large farmland they saw when they first entered the base.
After all, in such a precious base, there is still space for growing crops. This way of using the land is really too extravagant.
However, food is the foundation of the base after all. To be able to support such a large base, it seems that the output of the planting area is not small.
After about 20 minutes, they arrived at the farm area station and changed to a special sightseeing tram.
Here, they were shocked to find that many food and cash crops were grown on this vast black land.
Golden wheat, corn, rice, soybeans, sunflowers, sugarcane, rubber, and medicinal herbs.
There are also large orchards and vegetable bases, where apples, pears, bananas, hawthorns, tangerines, oranges, grapefruits, cantaloupes, watermelons, melons, and crisp melons are grown;
As well as green leafy cabbage, rapeseed, tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, cucumbers, loofahs, beans, etc.
Almost all common vegetables and fruits on the market, including varieties of all seasons, are included.
Selena was also surprised to find that the planting and harvesting techniques of these crops were basically left to intelligent machines.
After programming, some large agricultural machinery harvesting can be operated by a tablet computer with only a small number of people, which is very efficient.
Moreover, when they visited, they also caught up with the wheat harvest.
I witnessed with my own eyes that a large area of land was harvested by agricultural machinery in a short period of time, then the wheat was husked, dried, bagged and piled on the edge of the field. It only needed to be operated by other robotic arms, and then the harvested wheat was sent to the warehouse for storage, or ground into powder and sent to supermarkets or other places.
"Oh my god, it's shocking."
There were a few other people nearby, probably new to the base like them, who covered their mouths in shock. "I've only seen this kind of scene in some experimental fields online. I never thought it could be realized at this base. It's truly shocking!"
Selena was also surprised. Although she had seen many farms, she was still extremely shocked to see so many crops grown on this land.
There was a person who managed the planting area nearby explaining to them:
"My name is Robert, and I'm the manager of this planting area. These agricultural machines are all state-of-the-art and highly intelligent, requiring almost no manual labor.
"So, all you can do now is some manual labor, like washing and bagging vegetables. Don't worry, our space base is very advanced and we won't force you to do basic manual labor. Here, everyone's value is very precious."
"If you observe carefully, you'll find that the base's leaders have replaced manual labor with highly advanced machines in many areas. Even transportation is primarily by tram, minimizing resource loss. As a result, our base's electricity production and supply are well balanced, ensuring no resources are wasted."
"Everyone who can come here, some of them came on their own, and some of them were probably rescued by the base's psychic team. I was saved by Miss Su during the zombie crisis, which is why I have such a good job and my family has a stable home."
Speaking of this, Robert seemed lost in memories. "When I arrived at the base, there weren't many people staying there yet. The city seemed quite empty, as if it had been built in advance to welcome us. It was this peaceful feeling that gave me a great sense of security. This is a sacred sanctuary. I'm grateful to the base's owners for letting us stay here!"
Every word he said came from the heart, and other people who visited the planting area seemed to be deeply touched. Looking at these basic crops, they all thanked the owner of the base for his generosity!
Selena's heart also moved.
Sure enough, grandpa’s choice was right. If the environment outside continues to deteriorate, only this space base will become the last refuge for mankind.
Then, in addition to visiting the planting area, they also visited the animal husbandry area. In various farms, they saw large numbers of cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, as well as various fish and seafood and other common carnivorous animals.
Everyone was excited when they smelled the fresh aroma of clean grass and saw various animals.
They saw through the glass that almost all the advanced management equipment and technologies were used here. The staff, wearing isolated protective clothing, were adding fodder to the edible cattle in front of them.
This means that what the manager of the planting area said just now was true. The managers here not only considered food, but also edible meat.
Since they can show it to everyone openly and explain that these things can be bought in the supermarket in the trade zone, as long as they work hard to earn points, even ordinary people can enjoy the normal treatment of the base.
Then, the manager of the livestock area proudly gave them advice: "The factory area is also a place worth visiting. Everyone should go there and take a look. It basically guarantees our basic necessities of life, including food, clothing, housing and transportation."
It's almost the end of the month, guys, please vote. The ranking in the background is dropping rapidly, please give some encouragement~
