At 9 a.m. on June 6, the 14th year of Tianxuan, after a night of stop and go, Qu Mao finally entered Yuexia City before the temperature in the desert rose to unbearable. The new city wall of Yuexia City is a second-tier city wall. Nine city gates were left, and they were many times more powerful than when they were first taken down.
The changes outside the city didn’t seem that big to Qu Mao. Originally, Qu Mao suggested that Shi Buhui plant tumbleweeds of no less than one square kilometer in the direction from Yuexia City to Mid-Moon City and Yueshang City. and camel thorns, but obviously Shi Buhui did not carry out Qu Mao's order, or he may have carried out this order, but the tumbleweeds and camel thorns that were planted did not survive.
Now the green planting expert team of Liandao Green City in Yidi territory is in Yuexia City, so Qu Mao didn’t go into why this order was not implemented. Maybe the green planting technical expert team from Liandao has other suggestions.
After entering Yuexia City, Qu Mao felt a burst of coolness instantly. Even though it was already 9:00 in the morning, the desert or Gobi area was already becoming unbearably hot.
The reason why he felt a burst of coolness was mainly because as soon as he entered the gate to the northwest of Yuexia City, Qu Mao saw green vegetation all over his eyes, even though these vegetation were currently growing close to the ground.
The City Master of Green City, Liu Qianhui, and the City Master of Yuexia City had been waiting for Qu Mao near the city gate. Seeing Qu Mao enter the city gate, they shivered with refreshment, and all of them had smiles on their faces.
Qu Mao glanced at the green plants, and said to the people who greeted him: "Well, in the past few months, Yuexia City has been remodeled well, but it's a pity that the water reservoir has not been filled, otherwise the temperature in Yuexia City will be more comfortable. .
Thank you for your hard work! "
Just as Liu Qianhui was about to answer, she saw Qu Mao's eyes constantly turning to the reservoir, so she took Qu Mao's arm and led Qu Mao to the Hope Lake. Water, but because I hope that the green plants on the shore of the lake will be watered frequently and fully, and I hope that there are already a few puddles at the bottom of the lake.”
Qu Mao walked to Hope Lake, and found that there were very obvious water stains on the sandbags at the bottom of Hope Lake.
Green City City Master quickly explained: "My lord, Hope Lake has not been impounded for the time being, but the expansion area of Yuexia City is still around Crescent Moon Spring after all, so the groundwater is not deep.
After planting the branches of the trees on the edge of the Crescent Lake with cuttings by the Hope Lake, the green planting technical experts watered it thoroughly, so water stains began to appear on the bottom of the Hope Lake.
We are thinking, if the infiltrating water here can connect with the water veins of Crescent Spring, maybe we hope the lake can automatically accumulate fresh water, just like the pool of Crescent Spring, but we are just worried that the evaporation rate is too fast, so we will still maintain the original experimental plan.
These branches cut from the tree by the Crescent Spring have shown signs of survival after being planted, and they may grow to the same height as the tree by the Crescent Spring. Once this experiment is successful, my lord The shady trees you want to see will appear in Yuexia City, rather than simply sand-fixing shrubs. "
Liu Qianhui said: "Qu Mao, the lord of Green City personally showed that the plants around Yuexia City are completely different from the tumbleweed and camel thorn shrubs we chose later.
Even if the water poured in the evening freezes at the roots, after the ice melts the next day, the shrubs or weeds around Moon City will still survive, but the tumbleweeds or camel thorns will basically die.
Now the water damage at the bottom of Hope Lake is mainly caused by watering too much of the trees around the lake. Generally, it will evaporate to dryness during the day to around noon, so we have not tried to store water in Hope Lake.
Qu Mao said: "Take your time, it's past nine o'clock now, but you can still move around inside and outside the buildings in Yuexia City, which has improved a lot compared to when we just took down Yuexia City in early February.
Before I came, Xirong City also had a lot of greenery. These are all improvements. Because other towns are passing through at night, they didn’t stay for long, so I didn’t take a closer look. "
Liu Qianhui smiled and said: "That's true, Qu Mao, you can work outdoors almost all day within the city walls of Yuexia City.
In the other eleven towns, Xirong City is next to the two-way portal of the underground world, and Moon City and Mid Moon City are close to Moon City, so the green plants will be better.
However, there is still a long way to go before Yuexia City can work all day within the city wall. "
Qu Mao nodded, and said: "Liu Qianhui, since you say so, then we don't have to rush into the building to escape the heat, let's take a look at the growth of the shrubs in Yuexia City first.
I heard from Sierta Delta that you have dug several other reservoirs in addition to the 10,000-square-meter experimental reservoir I requested. Have you dug it now? Or is it just planning? "
Liu Qianhui said: "Qu Mao, the excavation of several reservoirs has basically been completed, and sandbags five meters thick or five meters deep have been piled up on the walls and bottom of the pool.
After the second-tier city wall is built, we don’t need to worry about wind and sand refilling the dug reservoir, so this plan was carried out in advance.
And we also used the same specification technology to excavate the ditches connecting several reservoirs. Now the members of the expert team of green planting technology are in charge of this experiment. During this period, the expert team from Green City did not leave Yuexia City , only a few experts went to Moon City and Mid Moon City.
Currently, the vegetation in the Moon City is very rich. The owner of the Green City is considering establishing a nursery in the Moon City and has already put it into action.
Moon City and Moon City are currently planted with Gobi shrubs and weed seedlings cultivated in the Yuexia City nursery, and have achieved good results. Nearly 100 square meters of Gobi shrubs or weeds have been planted in Xirong City. "
Qu Mao smiled and said: "I saw it in Xirong City, and it is also a very important thing to build a nursery dedicated to cultivating shrubs suitable for the desert of Salix Marquis.
It was night when I came, so it was a pity that I didn't take a closer look at Yueshang City.
However, Moon City and Mid Moon City are relatively close to Moon City, so the probability of success in these two cities should be high. "
Liu Qianhui smiled and said, "I'll wait for you when you're free, and I'll go and have a look with you."
Qu Mao nodded, and said: "During the time I was away, I went around the independent territories. This time, I should really visit the Marquis of Shaliu. The changes are not small."
