    Chapter 120, Wang Qiu¡¯s Choice (Part 1) The roof terrace of this small villa on the Tellilia Plains was built by Wang Qiu using a steel frame structure and polymeric transparent plastic panels to form a piece of more than 150  Square meters of fixed solar panel greenhouse.  The purpose is naturally to create a slightly pleasing green environment for oneself on this barren, arid and sparsely vegetated Talilia plain, and to form some kind of healthy harmony between man and nature.  There seems to be an objective law in this world, that is, the more something is lacking in the living environment, the more emphasis must be placed on this thing.  For example, the Mongols living on the Mongolian Plateau are obviously one of the inland ethnic groups farthest from the ocean in the world. Temujin, who unified the nomads from all parts of the Mongolian Plateau, chose to call himself Genghis Khan.  , that is, "the Great Khan as vast and vast as the ocean"; and the Arabs and Persians living in the Gobi desert are clearly the least green in their lives, but in their religion and culture, they are so green.  He loves green, regards it as the color of life, and is particularly interested in building various lush and exquisite gardens.  On the contrary, the ancient Chinese people, who had a lot of green in their living environment, regarded green as a symbol of humbleness. Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, green clothes have been considered to be worn by slaves and the like.  Since ancient times, according to the theory of "reincarnation of five virtues", Chinese dynasties have had black, red, white and yellow, but there has never been green.  As for cuckold, green camp, green robe, etc., they are not good words.  In the same way, although the Chinese have always been famous for their jade culture, the jade that could be praised as a treasure in ancient times has always been "mutton-fat white jade", followed by topaz and red jade.  However, green jade, which is widely admired in modern times, has always been regarded as low-grade and "fake jade" by the ancients, but it cannot be sold at a high price.  It was not until modern times that, with the changes in customs and habits, green jadeite found a place in China's jewelry market.  Although they are not very fond of green, on the other hand, the Chinese people have the best planting talent on the entire planet. No matter where they go, as long as conditions permit, they are often used to setting up a vegetable garden or flower garden, and find ways to plant it.  Something.  Even if you stay in a metropolis with a reinforced concrete forest, you often find the indoor environment too monotonous. You like to plant flowers and plants in the corners of the table and Wang Qiu is no exception.  In fact, for Wang Qiu, who is trapped in the wilderness with nothing to do, playing with these plants is also an important pastime for regulating his body and mind.  At this moment, when he pushed open the walkway door made of fiberglass and stepped into the greenhouse on the roof, the fragrance of grass and trees hit his face, which immediately made Wang Qiu feel comfortable. Then he raised his eyes and looked at the vibrant green plants.  A feeling of refreshing joy: Only if you stay in this gravel-covered Gobi desert for a long time can you understand how valuable this seemingly ordinary green can be in certain circumstances.  As soon as he stepped into the greenhouse, the surrounding area was a patch of green of different shades. Even though the owners were constantly picking it every day, it was still growing quite vigorously. Wang Qiu, who was seriously lacking in artistic talent, was not on the roof.  There are no flashy flowers and bonsais planted in the greenhouse, but all kinds of fruits, vegetables and edible spice plants are planted. The former includes coriander, peppers, lettuce, green vegetables, cabbage, onions, garlic, tomatoes, peas, and cucumbers.  , loofah and strawberry, etc., the latter includes mint, lemongrass, rosemary, basil and so on.  Although it looks a bit like burning the piano and cooking the crane, Wang Qiu is calm about this place. As a former reincarnation person who has experienced the test of life and death in infinite space, he knows that only food and weapons can make people survive in a harsh environment.  Live, while mere beauty and sophistication mean nothing.  ¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù However, maybe it¡¯s for the sake of cleanliness, or maybe  In order to show a certain "high-tech" style, the rooftop greenhouse built by Wang Qiu on the rooftop of the villa is not a simple flower pot and flower bed, but a set of "family hydroponic farms".  Indoor plant cultivation equipment is actually a highly practical comprehensive soilless cultivation technology that uses nutrient solution and PVC pipes instead of soil and manure to grow fruits and vegetables.  In fact, soilless cultivation, which seems to be quite high-end and western-style, is not strictly speaking a new thing.  As early as 1859, German scientists (actually there was no Germany at that time, it should be said that they were Prussian scientists) had invented the earliest soilless cultivation technology, using nutrient solution to grow flowers and plants.  However, due to insufficient technology accumulation at the time, it lacked practical significance.  Therefore, it was not until after World War II that U.S. aircraft carriers began to use soilless cultivation technology to establish "maritime hydroponic farms" so that sailors could eat fresh fruits and vegetables while sailing at sea. ?By the beginning of the 21st century, hydroponics of flowers, plants and vegetables had gone from a practical agricultural technology to a popular fashion with a petty bourgeois sentiment.  In order to allow those urban white-collar workers who rush between car exhaust and reinforced concrete forests all day long to still get fresh air indoors and even eat pollution-free green food grown by themselves after their busy work day after day,  Relevant businesses have launched a variety of balcony or indoor hydroponics equipment, which look like semi-enclosed boxes. The small ones are similar to microwave ovens, and the large ones are equivalent to wardrobes.  Seeds, water, liquid fertilizer, ventilation fans, cultivation sponges and PVC pipes are pre-installed inside.  Just press a button to grow your own flowers, plants or vegetables.  If it is placed indoors where there is not enough natural light, then LED lights should be installed on the upper part of the hydroponic box to replace the effect of sunlight.  The "family hydroponic farm" Wang Qiu built on the roof of the villa actually has a similar structure and style, but it is much larger. There are eight hydroponic boxes in one go, each of which is as long as  It is four meters wide, one meter wide, and two to three meters high. It is divided into many grids for growing different fruits and vegetables. There is sufficient sunlight on the roof and no LED lighting is needed.  In the gap under the hydroponics box, an iron cage was installed to raise guinea pigs (guinea pigs) as a source of meat. This cute little guy is a traditional delicacy of the Peruvians. Not only does it have a short growth cycle, it can last only a few months.  It can be sold immediately, and the meat is tender and delicious, roughly between pork and chicken. It can be fed with the branches, leaves, roots and stems left after picking vegetables and fruits.  Relying on this rooftop greenhouse with a large output, Wang Qiu's family of five can not only achieve complete self-sufficiency, but also basically have an endless supply of vegetables and fruits to eat every day For example, after adding the nutrient solution today,  After adjusting the ventilation, Wang Qiu found that the latest batch of cabbage, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers and coriander in the greenhouse were ready for harvest.  So, Wang Qiu harvested them all, put them into a rattan basket and took them out. Then he dug out a few bunches of potatoes in a small piece of cultivated land in the backyard, and then made a rough estimate, leaving only today's dinner and tomorrow's dinner.  The required amount of dishes is placed in the corner of the kitchen.  Wang Qiu put the rest into a metal box and dragged it to the open space outside the villa door to set it up.  Next, seeing that the time was almost up, he once again sat back on the rattan armchair under the eaves, lazily squinting his eyes to rest.  At this time, the sky is approaching dusk. In the dim sky, the setting sun is molten gold, the sunset is like fire, and the strong wind that has been raging for a long time has also calmed down. The vast and magnificent Gobi wilderness is bathed in this gorgeous afterglow, looking peaceful.  And comfortable.  After a while, someone rode an electric tricycle, bumping along the dirt road connecting the fortress and the villa.
