Chapter 278 Journey to the Moon
Several months have passed in the real world, and the year is now 2031.
After the Chinese New Year, the government announced that the space elevator would be open to the public, and people who want to travel to the moon can make a reservation.
When the government makes the announcement, it's a big deal. Although the cost is extremely high, there are still many wealthy people who can afford it.
That day, after finishing his business, Zhou Yongcheng took Lü Su on a trip to the moon. The country had been building on the moon for so long, so they should go and take a look.
Arriving at the South China Sea Space Elevator Base in a flying car, they were personally greeted by the base leaders, who also arranged a separate elevator for Zhou Yongcheng and his group.
Zhou Yongcheng said with a smile, "There's no need for a separate elevator. We're here for tourism, and tourism should be lively."
Seeing this, the leader had no choice but to give up.
The leader then personally led Zhou Yongcheng and his group into an elevator.
Although this space elevator is not large, with only six lifts, each lift can accommodate a number of people. With all six lifts operating simultaneously, it can transport a significant number of people or supplies to the space platform every day.
The leader led Zhou Yongcheng and the others to the very edge of the elevator, where they could see the scenery outside.
After Zhou Yongcheng and his group were seated, the leader took his leave.
There was no one in the elevator at the moment, only Zhou Yongcheng and Lü Su sitting in specially made chairs chatting.
A few moments later, dozens of people walked in.
Once everyone was in place, the staff began explaining the precautions, focusing on safety issues.
The people inside the capsule were listening attentively; space travel is no joke.
After the staff finished speaking, they asked everyone to sit up straight. Then, as if the staff had pressed a switch, everyone sitting in the special chairs was fixed in place.
Less than a minute later, the elevator began to rise.
The elevator is quite fast, with a speed of no less than Mach 5 and no more than Mach 10.
Since the people of the Dragon Kingdom used the enhancement drug, their physical fitness has improved several times over, so they can completely withstand the impact when the space elevator ascends.
Furthermore, the elevator cabin has a buffer device that reduces the impact force during ascent by more than half, so there is even less of a problem.
Although the speed is very fast, it still takes some time to reach the space platform, which is tens of thousands of kilometers away.
Several hours later, the elevator finally reached the space platform.
Once on the space platform, the restraints on the chairs were activated.
The hatch was also connected to the platform, and the staff began to introduce the upcoming journey to everyone.
They will stay on the space platform for a few hours, have a meal, and then take a spacecraft to the lunar base.
Although this is a space platform, people don't need to wear spacesuits, and apart from weightlessness, everything is just like being on the ground.
Upon arriving at the space platform, everyone was curious about everything on it, and they took out their phones to take pictures.
Staff led everyone out of the elevator and into the space platform, where signs clearly indicated which areas were open to visitors and which were closed.
Zhou Yongcheng led Lü Su by the hand toward the restaurant, while the others experienced the feeling of floating in the air.
Some people took out their phones to video call their friends, showing them the view of Earth from space.
Although the space platform has no gravity, Zhou Yongcheng and Lü Su were not affected in any way. They walked on the space platform as if they were walking on the ground of Earth.
After spending several hours on the space platform, staff notified them to assemble.
Once everyone had assembled, the staff led them to the second level of the space platform, where they entered a spacecraft through a portal.
The aircraft has a sci-fi feel to it, but it's still quite primitive.
The spacecraft travels much faster in space than a space elevator, and it didn't take them long to reach the lunar base.
During the docking of the spacecraft with the moon, the staff explained to them what to pay attention to at the lunar base.
After the explanation, the staff led them to the underground base.
The lunar underground base is quite large; once completed, it's comparable to a county town, and construction is still underway, indicating that the base is continuously expanding.
There are tens of thousands of people living in the lunar base, most of whom are building the lunar base, and some are researchers.
The base's facilities are quite complete, and apart from the difference in gravity, it is no different from a city on Earth.
These tourists spent several hours playing in the underground base, had dinner, and then the staff arranged accommodations for everyone.
The next morning, after breakfast, the staff led everyone to the ground base.
Today's activity is to wear a spacesuit and go on a trip to the moon, something no one would dislike.
Zhou Yongcheng and Lü Su, like everyone else, put on spacesuits.
The staff also explained the precautions to everyone after leaving the base.
Then they led everyone into a passage, after which the passage behind them closed and the main door facing out opened automatically.
Everyone was very excited and ran outside.
Besides numerous tourists, some construction vehicles were also entering the base.
Once outside the base, everyone took out their phones to make videos, take photos, and so on.
Their video instantly made headlines after it was released.
These tourists weren't the first to go to the moon, but they were the first to pay to go, and they even posted videos, with some business owners going live for everyone to watch.
"It's good to be rich, but I wonder when I'll be able to travel to the moon."
"Don't worry, buddy. The country has already built a large space elevator overseas. Once the large space elevator is operational, the price will definitely not be as high as it is now."
"That's right. I'm one of the guys who built the space elevator overseas. You should know about the space elevator base that's comparable to a city. It's spectacular."
"Such a huge project, I don't know when it will be completed."
"Although the project is large, it is a small problem for my Dragon Country. My Dragon Country is known as the infrastructure maniac for a reason."
The trending topics online are all about space travel, and many wealthy people are looking forward to their space trips.
Zhou Yongcheng and his team spent two days on the moon, and officially returned on the third day. With their return, the second group of tourists set off from the ground and began their lunar journey.
After a few days of fun, back in the city, Lü Su continued to run her flower shop.
Zhou Yongcheng was originally planning to travel through the world, but the Red Queen told him that the project to plant trees in the desert had officially started and asked Zhou Yongcheng if he had anything to say.
The improved tree species developed by the research center have officially grown in the desert, indicating that the improved tree species are perfectly fine. The next step is to recruit people to plant the trees.
"Planting trees in the desert is a public welfare project. We will only hire migrant workers to plant trees. We will raise their wages a bit, but there's nothing else to it. You can handle it yourself."
"no problem."
Under the Red Queen's instructions, thousands of management robots set off to recruit people to plant trees in the areas surrounding the desert.
Each robot hires dozens of workers, and thus hundreds of thousands of people embark on the journey of planting trees.
After the research center successfully tested tree planting in the desert, it began extensive modification of tree species. The resulting seedlings were then taken to the desert for cultivation, which was carried out by robots.
Because the seedling cultivation process involves some high technology, Xiao Jiu manufactured a batch of plant growth liquid. A single tree species only needs one drop of the plant growth liquid to grow to more than two meters tall.
After the robot cultivates the seedlings, it delivers them to the designated location, where workers then plant them in the desert.
