Fang Zhao didn't go too far with Curly Hair. According to the map provided by the base, he walked around the area where he could move freely. First, he learned about the topography and way of life here.
The area circled by the Star Base is very large, and the range of activities is also wide. Occasionally, you can encounter soldiers on patrol, but they all seem to be relatively relaxed, and there is no tension like the soldiers at the Baiji Star Outpost.
The place is boring, but also peaceful.
Curly hair is very adaptable. The low-pressure and low-oxygen environment did not cause it any inconvenience, and the barren sand did not let it lose interest. It seems to like it very much. There are no other people around, and Fang Zhao is useless. Wearing it, he is running happily on the sandy ground at this time, and he is also very interested in all kinds of insects and animals under the sandy soil.
Fang Zhao observed it for a while, but he didn't see the curls showing any discomfort, so he just let it go.
After walking around for a while, Fang Zhao took the curly hair back to the base. The next day I got up to eat in the cafeteria of the base, and I also met Wu Tianhao and Mitis. After adapting the day before, the two seemed to be more adaptable today, but Mitis still seemed to lack sleep.
Not only Wu Tianhao and Mitis, but Salo and Barbara also went out today, but they didn't eat in the cafeteria, they ate the food they brought.
When the program team saw the five people who went out for activities, they sighed: "Gene is really a very powerful thing. It is worthy of being a descendant of generals, and its adaptability is strong."
Genes mean potential, and as long as that potential is not wasted, they have an advantage over everyone else. Waste is another matter.
"Let's not compare the other four. After all, they are members of the general's family. Their genes are cattle, but what about Fang Zhao? They are also from literary and art workers! We can't compare with those four, we have to learn from him..."
The director began to pour chicken soup for the soul to the other staff of the show group.
In fact, the director felt helpless. This is the first time that all the guests invited are more adaptable than the staff. It is estimated that the guests can start filming, but they can't keep up.
Thinking about this problem, the director adjusted the arrangement. They can't officially start work here, but the guests can mobilize first.
The director called the five guests together and began to mobilize.
"The instruction manual passed to you records a lot of important information. The edible and poisonous things you see outside are all inside. If you don't record it, it's best not to touch it." Therefore, non-professionals should leave it alone. cheap.
At first, Salo listened attentively, listened and listened, and then began to slip away. It doesn't look like this on the face, but in my heart it's like this:
Before, I made more money by frying mountain ginger, but it was not sustainable. Ginger can be used, but it is better to fry garlic.
Fang Zhao has brought the dog here, and I can bring it next time. I don't like this kind of puppy, it's still a big dog.
When can we communicate here? I'm going to complain!
…
Salo's brain made the jump from turmeric to dog in two minutes, and then quickly elsewhere.
After emphasizing the points to be paid attention to, the director also talked about the key points of poverty alleviation.
"There is a saying in the old century, 'It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish'..."
The current poverty alleviation is generally aimed at discovering and magnifying the flash points of poverty-stricken areas, and further improving the quality of life in poverty-stricken areas, but it is simple to say, how many can really be achieved
What's more, they are originally an entertainment program, and they don't expect to find any bright spots. They just use the program to let everyone know the hardships here, and they can think more about this when donating money.
Of course, no matter what you think or how cruel the facts are, the director will not be so realistic when mobilizing.
"Look more, listen more, walk more, understand more, with your knowledge and smart minds, you should be able to discover the bright spots here." The director concluded.
Wu Tianhao: Watch more, listen more? necessary! With my eyes and ears, I can see all directions!
Metis: Move more, learn more? The amount of exercise seems to be quite large.
Salo: My bright mind
Barbara: Shiny spot
Fang Zhao: It's a little difficult.
The director was satisfied when he saw the thoughtful expressions of the five guests. It seemed that the five guests had understood what he said.
After clapping their hands to make everyone return to their senses, the director added: "Because some of the staff in our program group are still unaccustomed, they cannot officially start work, so today, Colonel Song Ping will show everyone around."
The personnel mobility of Buxing is larger than that of Baijixing and Weixing. After all, the environment here is not suitable for ordinary people to live in. It is good for a few years. If it is too long, some people can't bear it. Therefore, the general base is stationed. The soldiers who are stationed will not be stationed for more than ten years, and will be transferred to other places.
Colonel Song Ping used to serve on the exploratory ship Fomalhaut. After that, he was transferred here. When he was overdone, his military merits were already enough, and he could go up after a while. This is the second year he has been transferred to the star, and within three years at the most, he will refer to other places, basically those planets at the top of the development sequence.
Although he didn't plan to stay at the port star for a long time, Song Ping was quite enthusiastic about the guests. Can not change the development status of the star, at least a few guests can bring some financial support.
Since this was the second day after the program team arrived, considering that several people might be just getting used to it and could not consume too much, he also specially dispatched the car from the base and set off with a few people to introduce the usefulness of each area along the way.
Looking at the desert in the distance, Mitis raised his finger and pointed at his feet, and asked, "Is there oil under the desert? I have read some records about the old century, which mentioned this. In the old century, oil was very important. important energy."
Song Ping nodded, "Buxing has been detected in many places, but it is not necessary. For daily use, the thermal radiation provided by the star is sufficient, and it is more convenient and low-cost. Our bases use photovoltaic power generation. As for higher levels energy needs, we directly use the energy mines that are delivered.”
Later Song Ping took them to see the farmland.
"The servicemen who are sent every year will be assigned to work on the farmland, planting crops or improving the soil."
"Is this place able to grow things?" Salo pointed to a drab and desolate sandy field in disbelief.
"If you can plant, you can plant as long as there is water. The laying of the pipeline has already been completed. Within the planned range, the water can still keep up with the demand." Song Ping replied.
Soon they arrived at the farmland area, where crops of different heights and heights grew sparsely in the improved ground.
"It doesn't look good." Mitis doesn't know how to farm, but at least he can see if the crops are growing well.
Song Ping smiled, "The output is not high, but at least it won't let everyone starve to death."
Wu Tianhao remembered something and couldn't wait to ask: "Brother Ping, do you eat worms? Baijixing used to eat worms. Such a big worm!"
"Insects? I also eat them, but I don't eat much. There are not many insects to eat here. They are either too small or too difficult to catch. The cost of catching them is high. If you have time, you might as well go to the fields. We mainly eat crops here. , I planted it myself. Sometimes I catch some edible ones from the sea to improve the food, but this is rare. As for large terrestrial animals, because of their small numbers, they basically do not threaten the base, and most of them are listed as native species. Protecting the ranks, you can't eat, not only can't, but if you see them in danger outside, you have to help. Therefore, in our base, there are more times when we are vegetarian, and other times we use direct nutrient solution to supplement energy and necessary. nutrient content."
Song Ping told them this, just to tell them that here, don't think about eating meat, and eat vegetarian with everyone when you come!
Salo touched his chin, nodded and said, "I understand what you mean, there was a word in the old century, called 'the earth is safe'."
Song Ping: "... ??"
Wu Tianhao is indeed the one who has been with Salo the longest here. As soon as he heard Salo's words, he understood what he was going to say, "What do you want to say is 'Do as the Romans do'?"
Salo clapped his hands: "Yes! That's it!"
Song Ping: "..." I almost fucking doubted that there was something wrong with my expressive ability!
"You can cultivate more crops that are suitable for this place." Mitis said, "Find more researchers and you will definitely be able to study it."
Song Ping shook his head, "Researcher? Can't you come, the salary is low and the conditions are poor, the species is not rich and the land is not fertile enough, so it can't attract scientific research talents. Baijixing can also attract many researchers to go there, we are in this respect. On. Of course, if you are willing to help, you can invite more people to come over, not the kind of people who make a name for themselves, but people with real knowledge and ability, it doesn't matter if you have a bad temper."
Song Ping also casually said that he didn't expect to invite those talented scientific research talents to come over with an entertainment program.
"Take you to the farm to see."
Song Ping opened the protective net in an area, and led Fang Zhao to walk in, not forgetting to talk about the advantages of the Buxing base.
"Students who serve in the military here don't need to dig. Although farming is a bit tiring, it is safer than Baijixing. This alone makes many serving people more willing to come."
Song Ping glanced at Fang Zhao. He was transferred from the exploration ship Fomalhaut. He also heard that Fang Zhao applied for Fomalhaut and Arcturus when he was in service, but unfortunately they were all rejected. , and then Fang Zhao chose Baijixing, who had difficult service conditions. Later, no one expected that Baijixing discovered high-level energy deposits, developed and took off.
Many people know that Fang Zhao discovered a new energy mine, but everyone also knows that even if there is no Fang Zhao, others can find it, but it will take a little longer. Even so, there are still many people who regard Fang Zhao as a lucky factor. Flemington, the commander of the star base, agreed to cooperate with the program team for Fang Zhao's sake, otherwise Flemington would not dare to take risks and be safe. A year or two of Flemington would have made him rise, and he didn't want anything to go wrong during his tenure.
Song Ping didn't just think about things, and introduced the crops here to Fang Zhao.
"With such a big planet, you can't always count on supplies. Self-reliance is the only way to stand on the ground. You won't be starved to death when supplies are unexpected. Pests must be controlled in farmland, but insecticides have limited effects. You can't poison yourself to kill insects."
Song Ping brought out some pictures to Fang Zhao and several others, introducing the common insects and animals that harm crops here.
"Especially this one!" Song Ping pointed to one of the photos, gnashing his teeth, "The most harmful one in the field, and a large part of the reason for the low yield is because of them. They are very edible, and if you don't pay attention, they will endanger them. Blockbuster, let everyone's efforts go to waste!"
The kind of animal Song Ping mentioned has a long and narrow body, developed claws and tail, and has a section of scales on its body. It is the size of an adult slap. "This thing is highly resistant to drugs, and it moves agilely in sandy soil, and it is very easy to use without trapping tools. It is difficult to catch them, and it is a kind of creature that gives the base a headache. Fortunately, it is weakly poisonous, and it is not too dangerous for ordinary people."
"In order to protect the crops, we pulled up the protective nets, but the protective nets are not always closed. The fields need a lot of people to take care of them. Every time the protective nets are opened, some people will sneak in. It’s almost impossible for them to clean up. They move too fast in the field, and even if the exterminator finds traces, they are worried that they will hurt the crops in the field.
Fang Zhao looked at the photo above, "A bit like a lizard?"
"It just looks a bit similar. In fact, the internal structure of the body is different. There are specimens in the base. I will show you when I go back. If the next dewormer can catch one, I will dissect it for you to see." Song Ping said.
"Can't catch it now?" Wu Tianhao was eager to try.
"It's not easy to catch. If you want to catch them, you need to be guided by professionals, and you need to use tools to not hurt the crops. In short, catching them is not as easy as you think."
As soon as Song Ping's voice fell, he saw the curly hair rushing to one place, grabbed something in the soil, dragged it out and beat it a few times, then raised his head and threw it, jumped up to catch the beat twice, and then tossed it up.
"Is that what you said?" Fang Zhao asked, pointing to the thing that was thrown into the sky.
Song Ping: "...It seems to be."
Curly hair was playing with a special excitement, and then he held it in front of Fang Zhao as if asking for credit.
Fang Zhao looked at what the curls were holding, and then looked at Song Ping.
Song Ping's voice was rough: "It's confirmed."
Lazy speech
See you tomorrow.
