Mobile City Travel Guide

After some discussion, everyone finalized and refined all the details and aspects of the pipeline infrastructure project.

From the route of the main cables to the slope of the drainage pipes, from the number of ventilation openings to the type of sealing joints, City AI Cloud Knowledge compiled all the drawings and data into a complete 3D model, which was clearly presented to everyone.

"That should be about right," Li Xin nodded. "Okay, let's move on to the next topic."

Farmland.

Li Xin plans to expand the scale of his farmland, after all, he has a complete set of fruit and vegetable crop seeds obtained from Tianyou K4. To facilitate storage, he specially built a temperature- and humidity-controlled storage cabinet in the production workshop.

As the old saying goes, no matter how many evolution points he gets, it's never enough, and priority must be given to important projects, so naturally he can't evolve fruits and vegetables one by one.

However, he can grow ordinary crops, which will not consume evolution points, at most just less efficient than evolved crops.

"But my lord, if we want to expand on a large scale, I'm afraid there won't be enough space in the city," someone expressed their concern.

Li Xin nodded; he had thought about this question long ago.

"Therefore, we can consider building vertical farms."

With the current production workshop standards, it is already possible to build modern equipment such as hydroponic tanks, LED supplemental lighting, temperature and humidity sensors, and automatic drip irrigation systems.

Building on this foundation, Lixin plans to create a truly industrialized, multi-layered, vertical planting system. This system eliminates the need for soil cultivation, instead relying on nutrient solution soaking. This will significantly reduce urban space consumption and improve space utilization efficiency.

With the assistance of Cloudwise, the facilities for the vertical farm were quickly finalized. The facilities included a lightweight alloy frame, height-adjustable planting racks that were both lightweight and durable, hydroponic troughs lined with drip irrigation tape, LED supplemental lighting, environmental sensors, and more.

After discussion, the first batch of fruits and vegetables to be planted was determined: cabbage, water spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, onions, and watermelons.

Looking at the array of fruits and vegetables in the plan section, he couldn't help but nod slightly. This would greatly enrich the dining options on the Starfire.

The third topic is rather unique.

The physical and mental health of residents.

Although people travel through many worlds to survive, they also have spiritual needs.

Living in a mobile city, with steel ceilings overhead and metal decks below, and a perpetually unfamiliar, uncertain world outside the window, can easily lead to mental and emotional distress if there's nothing to soothe the mind and body.

Li Xin himself has a deep understanding of this. Before, in the wasteland, he was only concerned with survival, and every day when he opened his eyes, he would look for food and water, and he didn't have time to think about his spiritual needs.

But as the configuration of the Xinghuo ship gradually improved and life got better little by little, he unconsciously began to care about this.

Moreover, he also sensed this need from the residents.

As for how to relieve stress, it is mainly through reading books, watching movies, playing games, and so on.

"How about we build a library?" Lu Chen suggested.

"A library?" Someone shook their head. "Our production workshop can indeed print and produce books, but how do we generate the content? It's hard to find a writer in this world."

Li Xin understood his deputy's thoughts.

"Don't forget we have urban AI, which has now evolved to the level of future technology," he reminded.

The task of publishing books is entrusted to the city's AI cloud platform, which quickly digests the knowledge, stories, and ideas of human civilization, and then efficiently produces and creates various types of content, such as novels, popular science books, historical biographies, poems, essays, and even stories.

With that in mind, he decided to give it a try.

"Yunzhi, write a novel, a Western fantasy adventure story, with a swordsman as the protagonist, around one million words."

A few seconds later, Yunzhi completed the task.

The group tentatively began reading, and overall, the story was well-structured, logically sound, grammatically correct, without any typos, and even the punctuation was flawless.

But it reads very wrong, like a dry industrial product, without its own soul, and it fails to arouse the reader's interest.

"Sigh, it still doesn't work." The group was somewhat discouraged.

Just as Li Xin was about to sigh, a thought suddenly flashed into his mind like lightning, and his eyes lit up instantly.

Ark Organization!

This massive human organization must possess a vast database of data and documents, including novels, stories, poems, essays, movies, TV series, documentaries, games, music, paintings, and more—it must have them all!

As long as you can contact the Ark, you can copy and download all this information.

Setting up a library will be a piece of cake. All we need to do is have Yunzhi export the relevant data and import it into the production workshop, and we can start producing all kinds of books in no time.

No, it's not just libraries, it can also produce movies, games, TV series... everything.

The residents' spiritual lives will be greatly enriched! They can read books, watch movies, anime and TV series, and even play online games.

Thinking about this, he became more and more excited, and everyone's eyes lit up when they heard it.

"By the way, Yunzhi, is Xinghuo still receiving signals from mobile cities?" he asked casually.

"Not yet."

"......All right."

The last topic is the city's transportation infrastructure.

After a round of expansion, the size and number of floors on the Xinghuo have increased significantly, making walking around somewhat inconvenient.

Therefore, it is necessary to add new escalators, stairs, and even elevators to meet people's need for quick access to floors. Not only now, but if cities continue to expand in the future, elevators will become an absolute necessity.

Thinking of this, Li Xin couldn't help but feel a little dreamy—when he visited Tianyou K4, he was still envious of its elevator, but he didn't expect Xinghuo to have one so soon.

Thinking about transportation, he couldn't help but scratch the back of his head.

In fact, the production workshop is already capable of producing and assembling modern vehicles ranging from bicycles to luxury cars, such as Rolls-Royce, Ferrari, and Porsche.

However, the current size of the Spark is insufficient to support their internal passage, and the worlds they traverse are complex and diverse, making these devices unsuitable for use.

"Perhaps one day, Xinghuo will truly grow to the point where it has roads and residents can drive cars," he thought.

By then, this mobile city will likely have become a colossal behemoth, containing not only roads, but also overpasses, tunnels, railway tracks, public transportation such as buses, trains, and subways, and even residents owning their own private cars.
