Superman, the Man of Steel, female, 6 years old!

As long as they are not applied in the commercial field, she can use these technologies and patents to develop new products without worrying about patent infringement and patent barriers.

Moreover, when those new countries manufacture super armor, vans, and drones, they have to pay patent fees to Anna.

When Anna spread the technology, the only ones who signed a treaty with her to have a 100,000-man army in 20 years were the five major gangs, but there was no such thing as the countries that came later.

So after the new patent law was implemented and more countries began manufacturing super armor, vans, and drones, Anna's income saw another huge surge.

Now she is no longer in the state she was in a few days ago, where she had to save money for a long time to build an Ark reactor.

Although she suddenly became a small wealthy woman, the patent fees Anna collected were not high. For example, the patent fee for the super armor was only $1000 per piece.

This only accounts for 1% of the manufacturing cost.

This kind of conscience in charging is much better than those capitalists who charge patent fees of 30% of the cost of a mobile phone.

Chapter 263 'Noah's Ark' Project

In addition to the implementation of the new patent law on Earth and the receipt of a small amount of money in the bank account, the thing related to Anna is that she received another... commissioned research order for a quantum computer that has not yet appeared.

It is not uncommon for the research commissioned by the United Nations' international scientific research organization to her to conduct.

This is what Anna had been tinkering with in the magic building before. The purpose of that system was to implement the agricultural planting module of the smart farm in space and in the magic building.

It’s just that she was doing it herself before, but now, she has brought in a sucker to pay for this project.

The ultimate goal of the research commissioned by the United Nations to Anna is actually to enable humans to grow vegetables and grains in space and in the "biological battleships" that will be planted from the World Tree in the future.

Of course, as a qualified funding scammer.

When providing services to customers, this research funding must be fully utilized.

And a high-sounding slogan.

It is also indispensable.

Do you think this is just a small smart farm and a project on how to grow crops and vegetables?

Big mistake!

According to Anna, this is an experiment to realize food production in space and in the magic building of the future.

It is the Earth civilization that is using the most cutting-edge scientific and technological means to build a new 'Noah's Ark' for the Earth civilization.

This is the last retreat that humans will retain for civilization when they can no longer stay on Earth in the future.

Basically, the more impressive it is, the easier it is to publicize it and the easier it is to get research funding for yourself.

How can we maximize the use of resources? We need to supply new gas, water and nutrients to the future space station and the expansion space within the vine sphere as little as possible to reduce their burden.

About what to use...

In short, just spend money however you can and incorporate the technology you want to research and your personal work into this project in the best way possible.

……

Although Anna has just received this commissioned scientific research order.

However, for Western civilization and scientists, who have a more serious and superstitious "Noah's Ark" complex than anyone else, they are actually very enthusiastic about conducting ecosystem experiments in closed places.

It first appeared in the 70s during the Cold War.

When the two superpowers were on the verge of a nuclear war, scientists were preparing a "pure land" after the nuclear war and creating a biological regeneration and life support system for astronauts to use in space stations, on the moon or on the surface of Mars.

So as early as the 70s, in the city of Krasnoyarsk in Siberia, the Soviet Union had built the first confidential closed ecological experiment base on Earth.

This scientific research project, which was jointly conducted by experts in biology, engineering, chemistry, and agronomy, subsequently carried out a total of ten manned experiments, with one to three experimenters each time, and the longest time they stayed in the closed system was 180 days.

Moreover, this stainless steel experimental base built in the 70s is still open to other experimenters and tourists.

Following this small controlled closed life support system, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the Closed Ecosystem Experimental Research Organization (CEEF) of Japan, and the European Space Agency (ESA) have all conducted related research.

The most famous experiment after this was the famous Biosphere 2 experiment.

The entire system is encased in glass and stainless steel, covers 537819336 square meters, and has 537819336 cubic meters of laboratory space.

And within this holistic biosystem, scientists have set up tropical and subtropical climates, including tropical rainforests, deserts, shrublands, grasslands, wetlands, mangroves, small "oceans", intensive farmlands, micro-cities, technology circles, and other human settlements.

This world-renowned large-scale closed ecosystem experiment brought together thousands of international agricultural and biodiversity engineers, scientists, and other experts between 1983 and 1991.

Starting in 1988, eight researchers, four men and four women, entered Biosphere 2 to conduct survival experiments. However, as the proportion of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere continued to increase, the carbon cycle of the entire system could not be maintained.

Many animals and plants also became extinct one after another, so in 1996, the research team announced that this huge ecological experiment to study planting technology on the Ark for humans had ultimately failed.

So after two consecutive failures, do you think scientists on Earth have given up?

Actually not.

Because after the 90s, in order to prepare a retreat for humanity, the United Nations' international scientific research organizations have more funding than anyone else in this world.

In 95, the third "Mini Earth" experiment was launched in Rokkasho Village, Aomori Prefecture, northern Japan.

The Japanese experiment with the same name that Anna knew in her previous life happened 15 years earlier in this world.

Moreover, the scientific research funding, site size, and number of scientific researchers are dozens of times more than that of the "Mini Earth" experiment in the previous life.

In addition to the usual living quarters for researchers, animal breeding rooms, and plant cultivation areas, this time the "Mini Earth" no longer uses soil and relies on microorganisms to decompose the atmosphere, but instead uses more machines to artificially decompose and process waste.

And the oxygen supply inside no longer relies on plant absorption and photosynthesis, but a huge oxygen recovery processing machine that uses high temperature and water electrolysis to recover oxygen from carbon dioxide.

Problems such as the disposal of waste and drinking water, how to obtain natural wind, maintaining water resources and plant light, etc., are all solved by machines.

In other words, in addition to obtaining electricity from the outside world, the purpose of this expensive system is also to accumulate technological reserves for future human space cities.

And up to now, this "Mini Earth" base, which has been running intermittently for more than 20 years, has cost the United Nations scientific research organizations tens of billions of dollars in research funds.

Fortunately, they have also accumulated a lot of technology for the construction of a closed ecosystem for humans in outer space.

Chapter 264 Postpartum Care of Sows and Housing Module

After the United Nations scientific research organization signed a commissioned scientific research order with Anna, the entire Mini Earth project team located in Aomori Prefecture, Japan, was also taken over by Anna.

The research has been ongoing for over 20 years, so the Mini Earth project team no longer has the same impressive presence of thousands of scientists gathered there.

In fact, the scientific event with thousands of people gathered only lasted for more than a year in Aomori Prefecture.

After all, this was just a small experiment to study a closed biosphere. Before Anna's gameplay of planting 'biological battleships' on the World Tree came out, the main research object of the scientists was...

In fact, it is still the construction of super-large space cities and permanent and continuous research by humans.

Moreover, this super space city, also known as the "Noah's Ark" project, which has also been in technical preparation for more than 20 years, has already cost the five major gangsters nearly 10 trillion US dollars.

This is truly a project of the century, and almost half of the scientists in the United Nations research organization have spent their time on it over the years.

A "small project" of only a few billion US dollars on eco-friendly farming and pig farming cannot afford to hire thousands of scientific experts and research teams to carry out continuous research for more than 20 years.

However, the 'Mini Earth' project team, now taken over by Anna, still has about a hundred engineers and scientific researchers.

So after receiving the scientific research order commissioned by the United Nations, Anna not only received a large amount of funding, but also had more than a hundred scientific research dogs at her disposal to work for her.

This is the biggest benefit for restaurants...

Anna and her colleagues now have a large number of free laborers who can grow crops and vegetables for the store and raise pigs scientifically.

If it weren't for the fact that these people were experienced at the doctoral and graduate levels, they would have raised the Second Brother one by one and made him fat and white in the previous "Mini Earth".

Then Anna might have to give each of them a copy of "Postpartum Care for Sows" so that the new brothers can worship it.

So after closing the local project in Aomori Prefecture and handing over the research base to the local government, it was later transformed into a scientific and educational base and tourist attraction...

More than a hundred of Anna's new brothers rushed to Oborozuka District in Tokyo to report to Anna.

By the time the new brothers arrived, two new "floors" had grown underground in Anna's magic building.

So there was no need to rent a house for accommodation. These researchers who had just happily arrived in bustling Tokyo from the countryside of Japan were driven by the stingy boss An to live in the two newly created "floors".

Not to mention going shopping in Ginza and riding the long-missed Tokyo tram...now they can't even see the old farmers in the countryside of Aomori Prefecture.

Anna's excuse was also very plausible. After all, they were studying a closed small ecosystem...so they could only implement closed management.

this……

These researchers are studying the conditions of plants and animals in closed ecosystems, as well as the carbon and water cycles.

More advanced researchers are studying the survival and psychological conditions of these experimental subjects in a closed environment.

As the saying goes, you are on the bridge enjoying the scenery, while those who are enjoying the scenery are watching you from upstairs. This is very reasonable and fair, isn't it?

After meeting with more than a hundred people in the Tokyo area and paying the rent for housing and office space, Boss An, who was at the right age to be a caring and considerate person, did not kill them all.

These researchers under his command still have two days of free time every week.

Anna's magic building, strictly speaking, is not a completely enclosed space.

In other words, things like air circulation with the outside world, water resources, and nutrient supply such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium can actually be supplied through a network of world trees that is almost covering the entire world.

Basically, it opens a small space channel, which can then become a magic faucet like an 'endless water source'.

As long as you are connected to the World Tree network, there will be a constant supply of fresh air and nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium drawn from the World Tree.

So in addition to the incredibly good sealing effect, where there is no need to worry about light leakage, water leakage, or air leakage, Anna's magic building and the subsequent vine-shaped "biological battleships" are actually in a semi-enclosed space state in their internal space.

In this case, her request for her younger brothers to conduct closed-door research and have weekly free time does not seem so hysterical.

Therefore, in addition to requiring the researchers to carry out all production and living activities in the magic building as much as possible, they are also required to try not to bring other things from the outside world into the building after returning from their exercise outside.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that you absolutely cannot bring it.

Humanity's future space cities and 'biological warships' will still need to be resupplied from outside the solar system...

It's just that the cost of this is a bit high.

Therefore, as long as the amount of things the researchers bring into the magic building is always kept at a very low proportion, it is actually acceptable.

So, okay…

Operation about renting house expenses.

However, although they are very stingy, the living environment of these new brothers in the magic building is still good.

At least you won’t have to set up a tent inside or simply sleep on the floor.

On the contrary, in order to study how to maximize the use of the space inside the magic building.

In the newly grown floor space, Anna also invested more than 20 billion yen in scientific research funds...

Well, actually it’s just over 20 million US dollars in material and equipment costs.

A new floor, which is about the size of three football fields and one hundred meters high, was directly transformed into a standardized living space.

Within this living space, except for the main load-bearing frame, circuits and piping systems, almost all places are stacked one on top of another, like a honeycomb, and the living modules fill the space.

In order to save space and prevent dislocation and sliding when stacking, all containers are made into regular hexagonal barrel structures.

Chapter 265: The residence is actually the standard living module of the future

Each living module is 10 meters long. When laid flat on the ground, it can isolate a main structure with a bathroom, living room, and bedroom for the residents.

People living in it can enjoy a living space with a total area of ​​30 square meters and a net height of 4.8 meters.

The triangular spaces on the left and right sides of the regular hexagonal container are like agricultural modules, used as wiring space, ventilation ducts, storage space, and water supply and drainage channels.

This type of living space, each of which is 30 square meters, is actually the living space that humans living in space cities and "biological battleship" cabins in future plans will have.

Each 10-meter-long, regular hexagonal container is a module.

Each module is where a single person or a family of three will live in the future.

And there is no room for bargaining.

From the New Gods and Guardians on up.

Down to the old flat-headed people on Earth.

This is the place where all people live.

At most, if the family grows in the future or the children grow up, one or two more living modules will be added.
