These issues require repeated practice and testing, by properly setting the location, size, and number of ventilation openings.
This ensures that the air in the cellar remains fresh and has a suitable oxygen level.
These measures all need to undergo rigorous practical verification before they can be widely implemented among the people.
Fortunately, the materials needed to build the cellar were not scarce or hard to find.
Bricks have long been widely used and promoted, and are relatively easy to obtain.
After the corn harvest, the mountains of stalks have almost no other use besides being used for cooking and feeding livestock.
Qin Qianlu noticed these past few days while she was outside Beijing that almost every household had stacks of straw piled high in front of their doors.
These straws are dry and flammable, making them perfect for building the roof structure of cellars or as insulation and moisture-proof filling material.
Moreover, it is inexpensive and can greatly reduce the burden on ordinary people.
Qin Qianluo sat quietly in the spacious and bright study, soft light shining through the lampshade onto the desk in front of her.
The desk was piled high with all sorts of books about cellars and preliminary survey records submitted by the farm's craftsmen.
She held a delicate calligraphy brush tightly in her hand, her brows furrowed, her expression focused and solemn, as she continuously revised the open notebook with the brush tip.
Sometimes he would pause to ponder, and other times he would write rapidly, as if he were engaged in a silent but intense battle with these complex materials.
These days, she has been completely absorbed in searching for suitable cellar types in various regions, almost forgetting all the noise and disturbances of the outside world.
From dawn till dusk, she devoured those books with great eagerness.
Carefully examining the key information contained in each line of text, I tried to unravel the intricate connections between different regional environments and cellar types.
At the same time, she meticulously planned and directed the experimental work of building cellars on the farm.
We hope to obtain the most accurate and reliable first-hand data through actual operation and observation.
At this moment, her gaze was fixed on the detailed experimental record that the farm craftsmen had just delivered.
However, the complex situations and thorny issues presented there made her feel unprecedented pressure and confusion.
The densely packed data resembled a group of menacing little monsters, while the intricate textual descriptions were like a tangled mess that couldn't be untangled.
She felt her head was spinning, as if it were about to explode.
Feng Qingyun entered the study silently, her steps light and slow, as if afraid of disturbing Qin Qianluo who was immersed in thought.
When her gaze fell upon Qin Qianluo's slightly tired and irritable face, her heart tightened slightly, and an overwhelming feeling of heartache welled up within her.
She gently walked to Qin Qianluo's side and said, "Luo Bao, look how exhausted you are these days, I really can't bear it."
Actually, we might as well try a different approach: first, we should carefully and completely record and organize the characteristics of all types of cellars, and then hand this problem over to the Ministry of Works.
After all, the Ministry of Works brought together many skilled craftsmen and professionals from all over the country, and they had rich experience and sufficient manpower.
This way, we can handle such matters much faster and find the most suitable cellar construction solutions for different locations more professionally and accurately.
Qin Qianluo stared quietly at the table piled high with papers in front of her, her brows furrowed slightly, her eyes filled with helplessness and entanglement.
The papers were scattered haphazardly, some hanging halfway over the edge of the table, others overlapping each other.
The paper was covered with densely written information about the cellar that she had carefully collected and organized over this period of time.
The notes, some deep and some shallow, are interwoven with various types of cellars, their structures, advantages, and preliminary predictions of suitable regions, creating a seemingly chaotic and disorganized mess.
Her original plan was to carefully sort through the papers one by one and classify them according to different regions.
With the detailed map in hand, he accurately marked the most suitable cellar types for each region.
She thought that as long as she could complete this step, the Ministry of Works would be able to take over the subsequent work.
This allows you to start from a relatively clear and straightforward point, eliminating the need to spend a lot of time and energy repeating those basic and tedious research and analysis tasks.
This will allow for more efficient implementation of cellar construction plans in various locations.
However, while her ideals were lofty, reality gave her a cold shower.
Although the map in his hand was drawn quite meticulously, marking a great deal of geographical information such as mountains, rivers, towns, and villages.
But her travels were limited; many places were merely abstract symbols on a map, and she never personally experienced the local plants, trees, customs, and people there.
It is important to know how the local topography changes, whether the soil is loose or compact, and its water retention capacity.
And other key factors such as the subtle differences in climate conditions throughout the four seasons.
She can't possibly grasp the situation accurately and comprehensively by guessing based solely on textual descriptions and limited information.
In such cases, it is extremely difficult to determine precisely which type of cellar offers the greatest advantage in the local context.
Just as she was lost in deep thought, Feng Qingyun's gentle and concerned voice rang in her ears.
Qin Qianluo slowly raised her head, her gaze meeting Feng Qingyun's. From her eyes, she saw heartache and worry.
