Su Wei stopped spraying water and stared intently at the cut surface of the glass jar.
Through the clear glass wall, he observed the trajectory of the water seeping downwards.
The mixed soil layer absorbed a large amount of water, causing its color to deepen.
Excess water passes through the soil and is filtered by the sphagnum moss barrier.
Eventually, it turned into a few clear drops of water, falling into the pores of the coarse sand and gravel at the bottom layer.
There was no large-scale water accumulation, nor any mud seepage.
The physical model of the water-land cycle has been successfully constructed.
[ Ecological Landscaping experience +8.]
[A miniature ecological cycle closed loop has been detected.]
A pale blue light screen popped up before my eyes.
A line of clear text appeared above the glass tank.
[Item: Handmade miniature moss landscape.]
[Created by: Su Wei Yang]
[Quality: Good]
[The ' Blessing ' effect from the Crafting Module has been triggered.]
[Additional Passive Effect: Minor air humidification and purification.]
[Note: It can continuously absorb free dust in the air within a five-meter radius and release moisturizing molecules with a plant fragrance. It is a living, miniature air conditioning tower.]
The light curtain dissipated.
A few seconds later, Su Wei keenly detected a change in his nasal cavity.
The air, which had been dry due to the continuous heating in the log cabin, now had a refreshing, moist feel.
The air was filled with the fresh scent of cedar and earth, making each breath exceptionally smooth.
With the combined effect of [ Homestead Shelter ] and this miniature landscape.
The work area now became extremely comfortable.
Su Wei leaned back in his chair, gazing at the vibrant green in the glass tank.
The experiment was a success.
Once the underlying logic is established, the rest is simply a matter of scaling up.
But the joy didn't last long.
His brain quickly began to calculate.
A 20-liter glass jar consumed three liters of sand and five liters of soil.
If we scale this up to a 1,000-square-meter, two-story wilderness exhibition hall...
The river landscape is up to twelve meters long, and five miniature ecological zones cover an entire layer of walls and ground.
The required volcanic rock drainage material, professional peat moss, and akadama soil.
This is definitely not something that can be solved by simply carrying a bucket and digging around in the woods.
That would be a huge number.
Building material purchases must be made at least in tons.
He needed to obtain a large quantity of pure, natural, untreated substrate material.
Su Wei spun his chair to face the laptop on the corner of the table.
A finger swipes across the touchpad, waking the sleeping screen.
I opened the panoramic map browser on the Starlink network.
The cursor is bouncing inside the search box.
Input: [Map showing the distribution of active/extinct volcanoes on Kodiak Island ].
Press the Enter key.
Next, create a new tab.
Input: [Southern Alaska Peat Bog Industrial Gathering Area].
Two detailed geological distribution maps unfolded on the screen.
Red and brown blocks of color intertwine on the map.
Su Wei's fingers left the keyboard.
The cursor moved slowly and stopped at a remote coastline marked in red.
Chapter 183 The Prelude to the Bear King's Revival
Two detailed geological maps unfolded on the screen, with red and brown blocks interwoven across them.
The cursor moved slowly and stopped at a remote coastline marked in red.
This is an abandoned shallow beach on the south side of the Pilan Creek estuary.
Sixty years ago, a small-scale underwater volcanic activity occurred here.
Large amounts of porous basalt and volcanic pumice were pushed ashore by strong ocean currents and accumulated among the reefs.
After decades of wind and waves, the harmful dust on the rock surface has long been washed away.
This is precisely the perfect natural substrate for constructing the drainage system at the bottom of the exhibition hall.
Moreover, this area is located on the coastal area of the territory.
He reached out and closed the notebook, the dim blue backlight dissipating in the wooden cabin.
Su Wei stood up and walked to the wooden coat rack by the door.
He took off the windbreaker that smelled of pine and put it on.
The zipper was pulled all the way up to the chin, completely shutting out the cold air.
He pulled a large-capacity waterproof bag from the bottom of the shelf.
He then turned around, opened the tool cabinet drawer, grabbed two folding entrenching tools, and threw them into his bag.
Cotton Candy ran over from the wool mat.
Its fluffy white tail brushed against his trouser leg, emitting a soft whimper.
He bent down, placed his palm on the little fox's head, and stroked its fur backward.
He grabbed a handful of freeze-dried meat chunks and tossed them into the metal food bowl next to him.
The Cotton Candy immediately shifted its attention and began to nibble on it.
Su Wei lifted the waterproof bag with one hand and pushed the heavy solid wood door open.
A biting wind of minus eighteen degrees Celsius, carrying snow powder, lashed against my face.
I felt a slight tingling sensation on my face.
Su Wei descended the steps, his military boots leaving clear footprints in the snow.
Matt was walking briskly from beneath the massive skeleton of the exhibition hall.
On the construction site, several diesel heaters roared, dispelling the bitter cold from the foundation.
Matt wasn't wearing a helmet, and his gray hair was a bit messy from the wind.
He held an unlit cigarette between his rough fingers.
His steps were hurried, and he was clearly agitated.
Matt stopped when he was two meters away.
" Su Wei, we're in trouble."
Su Wei remained where he was, still holding his bag in his right hand.
He remained expressionless, waiting for the other person to continue.
"The internal wiring of the exhibition hall has been fully installed, but the power company is holding us back."
Matt irritably crumpled the cigarette in his hand.
The tobacco drifted in the wind.
"The manager in charge of mainnet access at KEA rejected my expedited request thirty minutes ago."
The reason given by the other party was that the territory was located in a remote area, and the risk of the main line being destroyed by blizzards in winter was uncontrollable.
"They refused to immediately approve high-power commercial electricity use."
"We request that a specialist be dispatched to conduct an on-site survey and reassessment after the extreme weather has passed."
"Given their administrative efficiency, it will take at least a month."
A month is well beyond the margin for error.
