Chapter 1428 Return to Shaliu Hou Kingdom

On the afternoon of October 1, the fourteenth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao entered the underground world train station at the entrance to the underground world of the holy land of Emperor Yi, and took the latest steam train to Xirong City in the Shaliu Kingdom in the Western Continent.

Starting from the end of July in the fourteenth year of Tianxuan, the steam trains sent from the Holy Land of Emperor Yi to Xirong City in the Western Continent have been running three times a day. Therefore, although Qu Mao arrived at the Underground World Railway Station in the afternoon, he could still take the steam train.

The train goes to Xirong City in the Western Continent.

Regarding the supplies for the Shaliu Kingdom in the Western Continent, the holy land of Emperor Yi mainly provided fresh water and food. On the steam train, Qu Mao was bored and inspected all the freight cars.

The cargo compartment of the steam train bound for Xirong City in the Western Continent was filled with fresh water and food. In fact, there was not much food, the main thing was fresh water.

Buckets of fresh water were piled tightly in the cargo compartment. Qu Mao couldn't help but sigh. Without enough fresh water, the livable transformation of the Shaliu Kingdom would be empty talk.

The steam train swayed on the railway in the underground world for three days and three nights. Qu Mao finally arrived at the pass train station in front of the two-way portal at the end of the world. After getting off the train from the train station, Qu Mao stopped briefly at the pass as usual.

The garrison soldiers who were stationed communicated for a while, and then passed through the two-way portal at the end of the underground world and arrived at Xirong City in the Kingdom of Shaliu.

Xirong City seems more lively than when Qu Mao left at the end of July.

After exiting the two-way portal, Qu Mao randomly asked two residents walking on the streets of Xirong City and found that one of the two people randomly checked was a miner who came from the Holy Land of Emperor Yi's territory.

The other one is an entrepreneur from the Eastern Continent who passed through the Holy Land of Emperor Yi's territory.

After chatting with the two people, Qu Mao was surprised to find that the time was around three o'clock in the afternoon, which was supposed to be the hottest time of the day in the desert area.

As if he didn't believe his own judgment, Qu Mao also looked up at the sky. According to the position of the sun, it was indeed around three o'clock in the afternoon. Before leaving Xirong City at the end of July, although the livable conditions of Xirong City had improved a lot,

However, it is still impossible to have so many residents active on the streets at three o'clock in the afternoon when it is the hottest time.

Just when Qu Mao was stunned and confused, walking on the streets of Xirong City, feeling a feeling that was not particularly painful, the lord of Xirong City, who had already received the news, hurriedly came with his entourage to greet Qu Mao.

Before Qu Mao could react, several soldiers from the garrison rushed to Qu Mao carrying a huge parasol and used the parasol to cover Qu Mao.

Looking up at the parasol made of white cloth above his head, Qu Mao waved his hand and said to the Lord of Xirong City: "Lord, there is no need for this, I don't care.

Look at the people on the street, who cares about this?"

The Lord of Xirong City smiled and said: "Sir, this parasol is still necessary. Although the living environment of Xirong City has improved a lot, the necessary protection work still needs to be done."

Qu Mao stopped worrying about the parasol above his head and asked: "City Lord, I have only been away from Xirong City for more than two months. Why has the livable environment of Xirong City changed so much? What happened?"

The Lord of Xirong City said: "Sir, Lord Liu has always felt that Xirong City is the window town for the Shaliuhou Kingdom to Emperor Yi's territory. It is related to the importance of Shaliuhou to the mine owners and entrepreneurs who come to Shaliuhou Kingdom to inspect the metal mines in the desert area.

Therefore, after returning this time, Mr. Liu asked his subordinates to store water in Xirong City at all costs, and transferred 20 green plant technology experts from the Holy Land Liandao to station in Xirong City.

Now the southeast wall of Xirong City has achieved long-term water storage of 5,000 square meters. Green plant technical experts from Liandao Green City also took 20 tree branches from the Crescent Moon Spring in Yuexia City and carefully planted them beside the reservoir.

In addition to the efforts in the southeast of Xirong City in recent days, there are patches of shrubs and weeds transplanted from the suburbs of Yuexia City at the corner of the southwest wall of Xirong City. You also went to see them last time.

In the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion, there are five tree seedlings that you personally planted in the early days and tree seedlings that were replanted later, as well as tumbleweed and camel thorn bush seedlings that you and Lord Liu planted at the beginning of the year.

On both sides of the road between the city hall and the city lord's palace, there are patches of tumbleweed and camel thorn seeds that you requested to be planted, which have already sprouted.

After all calculations, Xirong City already has 5,000 square meters of water and no less than 3,000 square meters of green plant coverage after the hard work of the past few days. In addition, 20 green plant technology experts have carefully formulated plant planting plans, so Xirong City

The city is suitable for residents to travel throughout the day, and it is also being cleaned up.

It’s just that it’s still too hot at noon and afternoon, and too cold in the middle of the night, and residents don’t move much during these two periods.”

Qu Mao nodded. It turned out that the reservoir had started to store water. He remembered the reasons that initially affected everyone's decision to fill the reservoir, so he asked: "Well, for a water area of ​​5,000 square meters, the current daily evaporation of the reservoir is

how?"

The Lord of Xirong City said: "Sir, the evaporation of Xirong City's reservoir is still very large, so other towns, including Shaliu City, have not filled the reservoir with water.

Now the total amount of fresh water that needs to be replenished in the 5,000-square-meter small reservoir in Xirong City every day will reach about 30,000 tons of fresh water, which is equivalent to about 5% of the total fresh water that the Holy Land replenishes to Shaliu Hou Kingdom every day."

Qu Mao nodded and said: "If it is only about 5% of the total fresh water supply, it is not unacceptable, but it is a pity that these 30,000 tons of fresh water are wasted.

Overall, Liu Qianhui's arrangement is quite reasonable. The Holy Land can supply 600,000 tons of fresh water to Shaliu Hou Kingdom every day, of which about 300,000 tons will be used by military and civilians. It reserves 600,000 tons for Minmetals City, Iron Ore City and Metal City.

Ten thousand tons per day, and other activities consume 180,000 tons per day, which can actually store about 5,000 square meters of water."

The Lord of Xirong City said: "Sir, if there is fresh water in Yuexia City, the Crescent Spring Pool, it would be excessive for Xirong City to expand the water storage by another 5,000 square meters.

Now Xirong City is carrying out water storage and plant planting according to the advice of green plant technology experts. It is expected that by the end of March in the fifteenth year of Tianxuan, the five plant seedlings you planted will no longer need careful care, and you and Liu will personally

The planted camel thorns and tumbleweeds have grown steadily, and coupled with the new plants planted by green plant technical experts in the past five months, I believe there will be no problem in adding an additional 10,000 square meters of water storage by then."

Qu Mao nodded and said: "Very good, I will rest in Xirong City tonight, and then go to Shaliu City after dawn tomorrow, and take a look at the weather in Xirong City in the morning and evening."

The Lord of Xirong City said: "Yes, sir! My subordinates will arrange your reception."
