Universe dominance

On December 15, 2020, at the Space Center of Fuyun Group in Longling Town, Sanjiang District, Meijiang City, Tang Yunshan, head of the Huaxia Space Field, led a large inspection team to come here. There was a team of top scientists from the Space Agriculture Research Institute, and Nong Jiamo, the leader of the Huaxia Ministry of Agriculture, who received the news, also came with a team of more than ten people. At the same time, there were even more famous private entrepreneurs invited by Tang Yunshan.

Among them are Lao Wang, a real estate tycoon who was ambitious to enter the space industry, Lao Ma, a big boss in the virtual world industry, Zhang Xianzu, the "future star" who now makes a lot of money from moon tourism, and Lei Dapeng, the head of Huaxia Grain Group, and a large team of more than 50 people.

Accompanied by bursts of roars, the two huge "Hercules" aerospace planes rushed into space with long tail flames. This time, the number of people was really a bit too much. Considering the reception staff of Fuyun Group, etc., there were almost more than 200 people in the team. For safety, they were divided into 2 aerospace planes.

When visiting space agriculture, they will be divided into several parts, and will be received by Li Fu, Gu Feng, Luo Xiaoyao and others, who will take them to visit the space farmland.

Taking the space shuttle to space is not unfamiliar to these people. For example, Tang Yunshan, the person in charge of the space field, has even been to the moon several times. Except for a few who are a little nervous for the first time in space, everyone else seems very relaxed.

The space shuttle slowly approaches the space farmland of Fuyun Group. At this time, the scale of the space farmland is already quite large. As the space shuttle slowly approaches, it continues to expand in the field of vision until the entire field of vision is occupied by the space farmland, and the world is full of greenery everywhere.

"Xiao Li, how big is your space farmland now? How much is the investment?"

Nong Jiamo, the head of the Ministry of Agriculture, looked at the farmland in space and seemed a little surprised. He said to Li Fu on the side.

"The current area is about 250,000 square meters, divided into 25 pieces of space farmland, and hundreds of crops are planted. The initial investment is not too large, and the cost is about 5 billion Chinese yuan." Li Fu replied with a smile. "5 billion Chinese yuan? It is indeed not too large." The rich people beside him, such as Lao Wang, Lao Ma Ge, Zhang Xianzu, etc., also nodded. To have such a huge space farmland in space, the investment is only 5 billion Chinese yuan, which is really not much, much lower than the original estimate in their hearts. Soon, the space shuttle slowly parked at the port area of ​​the space farm. Under the leadership of Li Fu, the people in space suits slowly floated and began to enter the space capsules of the space farm to visit the space farm. "Everyone, please look, this is one of the earliest space farms we built. This space farm mainly grows fruit watermelons."

In a space capsule, through thick tempered glass, Li Fu pointed to the green and fruitful space farm and began to introduce it to Tang Yunshan, Nong Jiamo, Lao Wang, Lao Ma Ge, Zhang Xianzu and dozens of other people behind him.

Everyone looked at the space farm one by one, and saw that the entire space farm was full of green watermelon vines, and the huge watermelons vaguely revealed their figures. Even people who don't understand agriculture at all can see that the watermelon yield in this space farm is quite high.

"Can we go in and take a look?"

Nong Jiamo looked at the scene in the space farm, and his eyes couldn't help but widen, and then asked Li Fu.

"Of course."

Li Fu nodded, then entered the command in the control computer next to him, and soon the hatch was opened.

Nong Jiamo gently pushed his hand, and the whole person slowly floated into the space farmland. Tang Yunshan, Lao Wang and others also followed and floated into the space farmland.

Entering the space farmland, the whole person seemed to be in a green ocean world. No matter which direction you look from, you can see the green watermelon vines. At the same time, because you are in it, you can see the appearance of the entire space farmland more intuitively.

The intervals between the roots of the watermelon vines are very regular. The vines have no guidance at all. In space, they are only affected by microgravity. The vines of watermelons spread everywhere, and the huge watermelons are quietly suspended in the void. Some are very naughty and hide under the leaves of the watermelon vines.

"Dong, Dong!"

Nong Jiamo kept knocking on the watermelons, obviously checking the maturity of the watermelons, and silently counting the number of watermelons on a vine.

"A watermelon vine can actually produce 15-20 large watermelons, and these watermelons are very symmetrical, and they seem to be more than 10 kilograms in general." Nong Jiamo, as the head of the Ministry of Agriculture, knows a little about agricultural matters. Generally, it is normal for a watermelon vine to produce 3-5 watermelons, and 10 watermelons are already rare. However, in this huge farmland in front of him, each watermelon vine actually has 15-20 watermelons, and these watermelons are very symmetrical. He couldn't help but exclaimed.

"In space, because it is only affected by microgravity, there is abundant sunlight, and there is no influence from pests and diseases, combined with scientific planting and management methods, the yield of watermelons can generally reach ten times that of watermelons on the ground. , and in space there is no need to be affected by the seasons, and agricultural production can be carried out all year round. Calculating this, the output can actually be doubled. "

"Not only is the yield much higher than on the ground, but the quality is also a few grades higher. There is no impact from pests and diseases, so there is no need to use pesticides at all. If the temperature and light are adjusted appropriately, the sweetness of the watermelon is also quite high. ”

Li Fu smiled and introduced the advantages of developing agriculture in space.

“Dozens of times more output, high-quality agricultural products.”

Everyone couldn't help but catch the key words in their minds.

"If the output is dozens of times that of the ground, and high-quality agricultural products can also be produced, there will be a lot of profit margins. This space field covers an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters. Coupled with the three-dimensional layout, in fact, Calculated, its area can be increased ten times, so the output is really amazing!"

"The entire space farmland can grow almost 100,000 watermelon vines. Each watermelon vine is counted as 15 watermelons, and each watermelon is counted as 10 kilograms. In this way, there are almost 15 million kilograms. Each kilogram is worth 1 yuan. It can be said that the output value can be almost 15 million yuan at one time. If one period takes 120 days, it can be planted three times a year, which means the output value is 45 million yuan! "

"Li Fu said that his investment in the entire 250,000 square meters of space farmland is almost 5 billion Chinese dollars, which means that the investment in a piece of space farmland is about 200 million Chinese dollars."

Everyone present couldn't help but start calculating in their minds. Looking at the layers of watermelon vines around them, everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes after just a casual calculation.

"Even based on the lowest data, there is still a lot to be done! In terms of the quality of this watermelon, it can definitely be sold as the top watermelon. The profit is really huge."

Old Ma couldn't help shouting.

Everyone else present couldn't help but nod. They all had virtual machines and calculators, and they could easily calculate the yield of this space farmland. Then they searched for the market price of watermelons, and it was easy. We can figure out the output value of this space farmland.

Combined with what Li Fu said about investment at the beginning, the ratio of output to investment suddenly came out, and everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes and get excited.

"I didn't expect, I didn't expect, that space agriculture has such great prospects. In the past, it was just metaphysics that any investment in space would be a loss. Now it seems that everything still has to be based on data."

Nongjia Mo also nodded and let out a long sigh.

"In fact, as China becomes more and more advanced in space science and technology, the cost of space farmland can be continuously reduced. In space, there is unlimited space and unlimited sunlight. These are advantages that terrestrial agriculture does not have. "

Tang Yunshan also nodded with satisfaction. He brought everyone here this time with a very clear purpose, which was to guide everyone towards space agriculture. Now everyone has seen the broad prospects of space agriculture. Tang Yunshan can see that these people who followed here Everyone is already excited.

After visiting the watermelon space farm area, everyone quickly came to the rice planting area.

Entering the rice space farmland, farmer Mo was shocked again, because he saw that the rice actually produced several ears of rice, and each ear of rice was covered with golden, full-grained rice. The entire rice space The farmland area is full of golden harvest scenes.

"Xiao Li, are these genetically modified rice? How can it produce several ears of rice?"

Farmer Mo seems to be very concerned about rice, because rice is the main food crop. It is related to the national economy and people's livelihood, and it is countless times more important than watermelon. For a big country with a population of more than one billion, the most important thing for the people is to eat it. Full meal.

"It's not genetically modified rice, or even hybrid rice. It's just very ordinary rice, the rice that has been passed down from our ancestors."

"In fact, not only rice, but also wheat, sorghum and other crops can produce multiple ears when they are in space due to only the influence of microgravity. In the case of rice, even the most common rice seeds, The yield per plant is also more than twice that of the most productive hybrid rice.”
