Chapter 223 Desalination of Seawater
After eating, Zhao Yanling dug a hole in the desert to rest.

Mark called to ask him about the box, and Zhao Yanling told the truth except for the part of "Ji Mie" that was swallowed by the target.

After the explanation, Mark wanted to hang up the phone, and Zhao Yanling suddenly remembered something.

He originally planned to go to China to find technologies for desert control. NLT has focused on biotechnology for hundreds of years, and it is very likely to get an internal price.

After explaining the matter to Mark in general, Mark pondered for a moment and seemed to be thinking: "The country that governs the desert the most is your country of Hua. There is a universal binding constraint between the particles of the soil, and there is no such constraint between the grains of sand. The country of Hua A professor of mechanics in China invented a soil adhesive that can bind sand into soil, and it was successful in practice. At that time, the company attached great importance to this adhesive, but it failed to replicate the experiment after spending huge sums of money. This substance was extracted from plants. Then there was a turning point, or a group of archaeal microorganisms taken from the high hot springs in Yellowstone Park..."

At first they studied how the microbe survived in an extremely acidic environment.Archaea reproduce rapidly and mutate when removed from extreme environments. One group of archaeal microbes lost the protective outer wall of cellulose and instead produced a membrane containing ring-shaped molecules to protect themselves.Inadvertently, the company's scientific research team discovered that this group of mutant microorganisms is naturally an adhesive, as long as there is enough quantity, the effect is better than that of Huaguo's adhesive, and its ability to lock water is first-rate.

It just can't be applied on a large scale because the efficiency of multiplying microorganisms is too low.

Zhao Yanling seemed to understand, but asked, "How much is it worth?"

Mark said affirmatively: "Desert Adhesive is a public welfare project. You can go back to the company and fill out a form to apply. The technology is open to the outside world, but I must remind you that if the quantity is small, it will not be useful."

It doesn’t matter if you have a date or not, you can try it for free. Now think about it, at least on the surface, NLT is really benefiting mankind.

Mark felt that Zhao Yanling was imaginative, even if there was adhesive, there was still a big problem in transforming the desert - the water source!
In addition to these two major problems, there are also complex and trivial problems such as transportation and labor that need to be solved.

So before hanging up the phone, Mark kindly reminded: "Zhao, trust me, stay away from this desert, it will bankrupt you."

Zhao Yanling didn't rush to make excuses: "Thank you for reminding me."

In fact, he didn't take Mark's words to heart at all.

After taking a nap, he got up early and didn't start the broadcast. He used the space to raise sand dunes at the landmarks as boundaries.The fluidity of this desert is not too strong, and he feels that there is a lot to do.

After doing this, he returned to the road and trudged slowly along the road.The yellow sand on both sides is long, and the road is lacklustre.Finally a car passed by, he gave a thumbs up to stop the car.

This is an old Fiat. The car drove more than ten meters away and then returned.Zhao Yanling saw two young couples in the car, dressed very coolly, as if they were on vacation.It didn't look like a Mexican, but the first thing he spoke was English.

The United States and Mexico are very fucked. Americans can enter Mexico at will, but Mexicans have difficulties in going to the United States.Even the Mexican government doesn't believe that Americans will be willing to smuggle into their country to live, unless they are really desperate criminals.

"Hello, do you want to hitch a ride? But I have to ask you about your origin and destination. You know, Mexico is not peaceful." The young man driving, with freckles on his nose, squinted his eyes.

The two girls in the back seat spread their hands in dissatisfaction: "It's busy, Bruce, you can't just pick up strangers, what if you encounter bad guys? Besides, there will be a lot of people in the back, and you didn't sit in the back."

Bruce, who was driving, was impatient: "Forget it, what would you think if you couldn't get a taxi when you were living in the wild?"

Zhao Yanling copied it back and found an extra bottle of tequila: "This is travel expenses, I'll give you a drink."

The people in the car saw him on the road, and the wine didn't look bad, so they finally stopped rejecting him.It's not uncommon to hitchhike with Diaosi, and this person in front of him doesn't look like that kind of bum in temperament.

Zhao Yanling sat in the back row and squeezed with the two girls. After getting into the car, she looked out of the car window and thought about things without saying a word.

Bruce tried to break the embarrassment of honey: "So, you haven't said your origin yet, where are you going?"

"I'm an explorer." Zhao Yanling adjusted her posture. "I'm going to the beach to see."

The car fell into silence again.

Bruce suddenly stepped on the brakes, and the momentum of the pedaling was a little too quick, which made several people shrugged forward involuntarily.

"Shet, what are you doing?"

"What's wrong with you?"

Bruce turned a deaf ear and turned his head to look at Zhao Yanling: "You are BlueWings·Zhao!"

Zhao Yanling walked in broad daylight these days, his skin was tanned even more, and his hair was a little messy, so he didn't recognize him at first sight.

"BlueWings is the name of Lanling Island I discovered, not mine. I am Zhao Yanling, nice to meet you."

The eyes of the two girls lit up when they heard the words: "Ah...you are Zhao? Can we take a photo together?"

Recently, Zhao Yanling has become famous in the major media in the United States, and her appearance rate has caught up with the stars.The United States is more star-chasing than China, and the atmosphere of the concert is incomparable to other places in the world.

Zhao Yanling said to Bruce: "Don't stop in the middle of the road, I think we'll drive first, take pictures and talk about it after getting off the car."

Bruce turned his head and started the driveway: "Okay, sorry, I'm a little excited. I'm your fan, but unfortunately I can't register Xinghai live account, otherwise I would have watched your show a long time ago. Just in time, we are going to Golfo too Hong Kong for the weekend, join our party."

Zhao Yanling looked at the two average-looking girls beside her, and at the two young men in the front row, and shook her head: "I think it's better to forget it, the number of people is an irreconcilable contradiction..."

There was a chuckle in the car.

"Busy, Lao Zhao, let's have a barbecue by the sea, drink beer, and have some cigarettes, you know."

The girl next to Zhao Yanling, who was wearing hot pants and a vest, hugged his arm and shook it: "Come on, Zhao, if the classmates know that you spend the weekend with us, they will envy us to death."

The giant saguaro cactus in the shape of a flower passed by outside the car, and green gradually appeared in the desert.Verus was driving very fast, with Sister Gaga's "Always Remember Us This Way" in the car, the sunset in Sonora was burning in Zhao Yanling's eyes, and the two girls were stunned looking at the bright side faces , so handsome, is there any wood?Is it too manly?
Click, click, the two girls couldn't wait to bring their faces closer without asking for permission, and took a few consecutive pictures with their mobile phones...

The group arrived at the bay after eight o'clock in the evening, and Zhao Yanling went down with them to carry the barbecue grill and ingredients.

Seeing Bruce fiddling with the ingredients, Zhao Yanling took over: "Let me do it."

When Bruce finished cooking, Zhao Yanling felt that she would starve to death by the sea.

He stands by the grill, breaking up steaks and brisket, and draws a kitchen knife from his side.This knife was given to him by Gordon. It was hand-forged by a Japanese craftsman. It has a beautiful burnt pattern on it, and the name of the craftsman is engraved on the front of the handle.Japanese kitchen knives are second to none in the world, whether you resist or not, their quality is there, unabated...

The four of them took out their mobile phones one after another and excitedly recorded the video.I saw Zhao Yanling's handling of the saber like flying, and his sabering like a god.The beef on the chopping board was playing tricks in his hands, because the speed of his hands was too fast, he couldn't see where his seasoning came from.

They only feel that when the meat arrives on the plate, the double image in front of them will disappear.

"Wow, so handsome!"

"I'll eat the steak grilled by Zhao himself!"

"I tasted this taste in Gordon's restaurant."

After eating, the four of them drank and chatted there, and wanted to swim in the sea at night. Zhao Yanling quietly went around and disappeared in the sound of the roaring waves.

He needs some private space to test an idea.

The things in the space moved to the beach, Zhao Yanling took a deep breath, stood in the sea water, and sucked a lot of water into the space.

The sea is endless, even if he fills the space, the sea will not change.

There is a kind of red algae living in the Gulf of California, activate "Nirience", and it will fall on a piece of red algae in the sea water of the space, expanding like toast.

There are countless microorganisms and plankton, algae, and organic matter in seawater. "Ni Mie" filled the space within a few breaths, stopped growing, shattered profusely, merged into the water, and partly sank to the bottom.

Pour out some seawater and hold it in the palm of your hand to taste it. The seawater was successfully desalinated.

After "Nirvana" disappeared, the space was a circle larger than before.He didn't consider filling the seawater, plus the expansion of "Nirience" could not hold the original space, and "Nilience" stretched the space...

The space was originally folded into a two-dimensional light beam, which is the size of a basketball court after unfolding, so it is not surprising that it is extensible.

Nirvana can indeed desalinate the sea water, and in the future, the irrigation water in the desert will be absorbed directly from the sea, inexhaustible.Fill the sea with fresh water and repack the bits and pieces back into space.What he didn't see was that the purified fresh water had organic debris invisible to the naked eye, which was being eaten by fish, shrimp, crabs and microorganisms in the sea.

I slept on the coastal reef that night, and the next morning, the red sun was rising and the golden light was rising, the sea surface of the Gulf of California was burning, and the red algae in the water were smudged to reflect the fascinating color of coral.

The Gulf of California, also known as the Red Sea, is named after this.

Zhao Yanling walked northwest along the coastline, entered the scope of Golfo National Park, and boarded the delta at the mouth of the Colorado River.

There is an Indian reserve here, with square ridges, fertile land and abundant water, but the land is sparsely populated and protected by the government, and development of other places is prohibited.

Zhao Yanling leaned over and picked a piece of wet mud and held it in his hands. It may not be as fertile as the black soil outside Huaguo Pass, but it is enough for use in the desert.

He couldn't help laughing out loud, the desert that is worthless in the eyes of others will become an emerald dotted in Sonora in his hands.

There is something wrong here, and he has to go home.Strolling by the sea, I contacted Caesar and asked him to send a car to pick me up.

Walking and walking, I saw those two couples, they happily waved to him and yelled...
