"Mountain and Sea Project" experimental base.
High up in the building, Xu Milu looked through the rapidly moving elevator and saw the working robots and the busy construction workers on the ground. In the blink of an eye, the high wall seemed to grow even taller.
Three days ago, Shanghai Temporary Shelter No. 3, Hangzhou Temporary Shelter No. 7, and Hangzhou Temporary Shelter No. 11 were officially merged and renamed "Beijing Temporary Shelter No. 3". It is expected that the "Beijing No. 3" propulsion engine will be built on the existing foundation within six months. At the same time, the Beijing No. 3 underground city has also been put into construction. It is expected that the underground city will be able to accommodate 700,000 residents in China in the future.
Hao Xiaoxi held the document in her hands, frantically signing it while explaining it to Xu Milu:
"This is the inner flood control dike under construction. It has an average height of 700 meters and a thickness of 500 meters. There are elevators inside the dike that connect to the underground city. If the sea level continues to rise, this place will become an isolated island in the sea."
Xu Milu couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement. She had underestimated the cohesion of the humans on this planet. In just seven days, they had already gathered resources, arranged everything, and even prepared countermeasures to deal with the continued rise in sea levels.
Moreover, Shanghai is far from Beijing, yet it was forcibly included in the scope of the capital's refuge, and the political implications of this are quite obvious.
Robots transporting materials, constructing underground cities thousands of meters deep, and building flood control dams that reach into the clouds—in the eyes of the ancients, this was nothing short of the magical arts of immortals who could "move mountains and create seas."
It seems that when humans go all in, their power is comparable to that of gods.
Behind the two were UN military personnel responsible for security, including Liu Peiqiang and Qi Jiang, whom she had met before.
Xu Milu still remembered that Han Duoduo had given her a miniature engine model. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Liu Peiqiang:
"Colonel Liu Peiqiang, is your wife's illness any better now?"
Liu Peiqiang was taken aback at first, then glanced at Hao Xiaoxi, and nodded after confirming that the answer did not violate the rules, a few smiles appearing on his face:
“My wife is doing very well now, and because I was selected for the Mountain and Sea Base, my family members are now qualified to enter the underground city. I am very grateful.”
At this point, the people around couldn't help but show a hint of envy, but no one questioned it—Liu Peiqiang's contributions to the earth were enough to ensure that his family could live comfortably until old age.
"That's good. I hope the silver osmanthus tree I brought can be of help to you."
Xu Milu nodded.
Although the sun is no longer here, Earth in this dimension has developed antimatter technology and has enough energy. So as long as there is enough lunar soil, silver osmanthus trees will be successfully cultivated in an endless stream.
Based on the science and technology of this planet, it is likely that a drug capable of treating cancer will be officially launched within a year.
Liu Peiqiang was very interested in this topic. He put his hands down in front of his lower abdomen, glanced at Hao Xiaoxi who hadn't spoken, and continued:
"I'm sorry, I don't know much about these things, but I know you mentioned that the osmanthus tree contains some kind of 'alcohol,' which can cure cancer and tumors. Does it also have the effect of eliminating radiation?"
Hao Xiaoxi stopped signing, looked up at Xu Milu, and held her breath, waiting for her answer.
"No, you may be disappointed. The silver osmanthus tree is rich in a large amount of 'paclitaxel-like' substances, which are very similar to 'paclitaxel' found in the yew tree, but can only be used to treat cancer and tumors, and cannot eliminate or reduce radiation."
Xu Milu shook her head regretfully. Just as she was about to say something more, she suddenly remembered that she had seen similar drugs in the post-apocalyptic world, so she stopped talking.
Silence fell over the elevator once again.
...
...
"bite--"
The elevator made a soft sound as the doors opened, and despite the several layers of protective doors, the wind, snow, and cold from outside rushed in.
Hao Xiaoxi shielded her from the wind and snow with her body and shouted a reminder to her:
"Ms. Xu, the No. 1 seed warehouse of the Shanhai Base is just ahead. The ground temperature is minus 38 degrees Celsius. Please put on your protective suit. We will be conducting the first handover there. The transport convoys from various countries are also ready."
Although it was unnecessary, Xu Milu put on the protective suit that Liu Peiqiang handed her. She even felt a sensation similar to bulletproof vest inside the suit.
—How afraid are you that she'll die?
Xu Milu quickly put on her protective suit, and surrounded by people, she walked down the elevator and took a driverless shuttle bus into the heavily guarded warehouse area, where hundreds of transport vehicles from all over the world were already waiting.
The weather was cold, and the snowflakes hitting the glass visor of the protective suit even made a "pattering" sound. Xu Milu wiped the visor a few times and turned to look at Hao Xiaoxi:
"I've changed my mind."
Everyone present felt a chill, wondering why the other party would suddenly say such a thing.
Before anyone else could speak, Xu Milu pointed to the warehouse in front of her:
"In addition to the original order, we will add 100,000 juicy apple tree seedlings, 300,000 wheat seaweed seedlings, 100,000 catties of fast-growing polar tomato seeds, 100,000 catties of fluorescent berries, and 90,000 catties of breadgrass and milk berry seeds. Of course, the most important thing is 100,000 silver osmanthus seedlings. I will be here all day today. As long as you have enough lunar soil or jade to exchange, all these seeds are yours."
This string of data may be astronomical to some people, but when spread across the globe, it cannot even meet the needs of large shelters. She witnessed the greatness of humanity on this planet and couldn't help but want to do what she could to help those in need.
"Okay, I'll tell everyone the good news right away!"
Hao Xiaoxi couldn't help but widen her eyes, and for the first time, she swung her fist in a somewhat out of control.
...
...
The entire base was top secret, so Xu Milu wasn't worried about her unusual behavior being exposed. She waved her hand in front of everyone, and the warehouse was filled with all sorts of strange and unusual seeds.
China fully demonstrated its host spirit; within half an hour, all the seeds were counted and stored, and the warehouse used to store the jade was opened, with truckloads of jade and lunar soil being delivered into the warehouse.
“3дравствуйте, мы хотели 6ы у3нать 6ольше о полярных 6ыстрорастущих помидорах, я имею в виду, это удивительно, такое драгоценное растение(Hello, we would like to learn more about the Arctic fast-growing tomato. I mean, it's so amazing, such a precious plant…)”
The Russian representative, still sporting the same big beard, immediately approached Xu Milu, who was playing in the snow, after confirming the seeds were loaded onto the truck, and tried to strike up a conversation with her.
"Are you asking about polar fast-growing tomatoes?"
Xu Milu thought for a moment, then suddenly asked Qi Jiang and the others:
Are you hungry?
