Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#817 - Unlimited water

"I heard that you are planning a trip to Xandar recently?"

Looking at the distant scene of lush grass and the gradual emergence of an oasis, Meng Xiaoyu gradually came back to her senses after a long while, checked the Little Wu clone on her wrist, and confirmed that this scene had been recorded.

Then, she took a few deep breaths, suppressed the inexplicable surging emotions in her heart, and turned her head to ask.

"Well, I'm preparing to give back to those charitable donors, and also take a look at how my little shop on Xandar is doing."

These were all written on the official website, so Liang Yue naturally didn't need to hide anything.

"You're so openly writing about extraterrestrial civilizations on the internet, aren't you afraid of causing negative impacts?"

"What negative impacts could there be? The Chitauri's New York battle before, the joint fleet battle near Hawaii later, plus the Transformers running around the world now.

Aliens are no longer a secret."

"But it's still a bit too blatant to openly hold a lottery for extraterrestrial travel spots on the website."

"Do you have to keep everything under your control and keep it a secret to feel at ease? Do you think the public's ability to accept things is not as good as yours, or do you think they're not qualified to know about these things?"

"Tsk~ You! You really don't know how to chat!"

"Alright, just say what's on your mind directly, no need to beat around the bush. When it comes to dealing with people and communicating, you're far behind Aunt Liu. You want more spots, right?"

"Hmph~ You don't need to worry about the spots. Since you planned to organize extraterrestrial travel a few days ago and gave the spots to those three.

Countries around the world have already taken swift action. That little girl, Guna, directly contacted the embassy and gave us all ten of her spots."

Okay, so it's said that the lottery method will be used to determine the ownership of the spots, but if the scope of the lottery is limited to Chinese donors, it doesn't seem impossible...

"What compensation did you give her?"

"Each spot was symbolically given one million US dollars."

"That's too stingy. You guys aren't short of money, are you?"

"Sometimes, too much money is not a good thing for a little girl, especially for someone who is still focused on studying. This is the conclusion reached by our expert group after research and discussion.

Therefore, the higher-ups have put most of this favor on taking care of the little girl's family."

"Hehe~"

"Actually, the purpose of the higher-ups this time is to establish a base on Xandar, not a high-level one, just enough to accommodate three to five people."

"Obtaining Xandar's permits isn't too difficult, but the housing prices on that planet aren't low. Are you planning to~"

"You don't need to worry about this. When I came back last time, I also brought a price list of metals from there. I found that the value of gold is still okay on Xandar.

So, they plan to bring ten tons of gold this time. According to the previous prices, they should be able to buy a fixed property far from the city center.

However, if you add up the usual expenses and the necessary costs for research, that gold will definitely not be enough, so further assistance may be needed from you later."

"Ten million Star Credits, this is my contribution to the establishment of a base for my motherland on an alien civilization."

"Thank you very much!"

Don't think that ten million Star Credits is a small amount. Xandar's currency is a common credit currency throughout the galaxy.

According to the data, the Star Credit has undergone multiple rounds of reforms and adjustments in its long-term development.

The amount of issuance itself is strictly corresponding to the value of the entire national system, far from the unbridled and indiscriminate situation on Earth.

It is even recognized in interstellar transactions in some extragalactic galaxies.

Moreover, thanks to the prosperity and strength of the Xandar civilization, the credibility is also guaranteed.

With this sum of money, the group of people sent by the country to be stationed on Xandar can already do a lot of things.

In fact, gold, as a precious metal, is not abundant in the entire universe, but in terms of actual value, the Xandar Credits that ten tons of gold can be exchanged for are still far from the million mark.

Meng Xiaoyu had been there twice with Liang Yue, and she was relatively clear about this.

......

At around eight o'clock in the evening, most of the people who had just finished a large bonfire party had returned to the newly built employee dormitory.

Holding meetings, resting, and conveying what they saw and heard today to all parties~

The tall stone pillars that originally stood every distance were now transformed into street lamps by a group of simulation robots, and the lighting was still acceptable.

It's not brightly lit, but compared to the large expanse of dark desert outside the city for thousands of miles, the small town is definitely a paradise.

Liang Yue was standing on the city wall, overlooking the flowing water below, and was a little lost in thought for a while.

The glistening waves were reflecting each other with the galaxy above the sky, and under the backdrop of the surrounding desert for thousands of miles, it was like a lively flowing gem.

After most of the day of fermentation, the forest on the bank of the river had now become a paradise for many small animals.

Lizards, scorpions, wild rabbits, foxes, snakes, gray wolves, eagles, etc., gathered one after another.

At nightfall, when the sun was about to set below the horizon, even a group of a dozen wild camels walked over, smelling the water vapor.

However, this group of large animals was obviously smarter. After drinking enough water by the river, they followed the wall of the small town all the way to find it.

Finally, they entered the stone wall through the few city gates that Liang Yue had reserved.

Then, they trot all the way and entered the alfalfa grassland that Liang Yue had ripened, under the gaze of a group of simulation robots who were still working enthusiastically and working overtime, and feasted on it.

Obviously, this seemingly empty, dry, and barren desert is not really barren.

In some seemingly inconspicuous corners, there are still many small animals struggling to survive.

Thinking of this, Liang Yue's gaze could not help but follow the direction of the several rivers outside the city all the way down.

After most of the day of rushing, the water flow overflowing from the mountain lake had now extended far away.

Seven or eight streams wandered through the desert, intertwined with each other, and had arched the entire small town in the basin, and continued to flow firmly towards Lop Nur in the southeast, which was lower in terrain, for more than ten miles.

It is expected that in three to five days at most, this water flow will be able to merge into the original coverage of the lake.

Then it turns into groundwater and slowly disappears...

In a short period of time, the main lake area of Lop Nur will not change much, but the area where the river flows will benefit greatly from this.

If used well, it may not be possible to manage the entire river area into a new oasis agricultural area.

This infinite water source from the MC world will continue to replenish the water source in the mountain lake indefinitely for a long time to come, maintaining the supply of river water.

This has already been verified in the ten thousand acres of fertile land under Mount Taibai in the DC world.

In those years, in order to take in more poor victims in the war years, Liang Yue and others transformed many mountainous areas in their Taibai Mountain area into fields and provided water conservancy with infinite water sources.

Liang Yue was originally worried that after he completed his experience and left the DC world, this infinite water source might also be cut off as a result.

As a result, when he returned to the DC world again, he discovered that the infinite water source of MC did not seem to be as fragile as he imagined.

As long as it is not artificially destroyed, it seems to be able to exist stably and continuously provide water sources for the surrounding areas.

Even now, nearly a century later, the infinite water source in Mount Taibai is still operating normally.

Therefore, the mountain lake in front of you is naturally equally applicable.
