Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 1201 - 1112: Landing at the Base

Finally, just when everyone was beyond excited, just when everyone’s exhilaration was palpable, the spacecraft landed steadily on the moon’s surface.

As the landing occurred, a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted inside the cabin.

For Lin Yi, there was no feeling whatsoever, but it was completely different for them.

This was their unprecedented first moon landing, let alone setting foot on the moon, even flying into space was a first, and moreover, it represented a feat for all humanity.

Their every move on this side was naturally received by the ground base as well.

Upon seeing the spacecraft successfully land on the moon’s surface again, the personnel at the ground base couldn’t help but cheer as well.

Even the usually serious Ouyang Lei showed great joy at this moment. Watching everyone cheering nonstop, he had no intention to stop them; on the contrary, he even wanted to join in.

Of course, although Lin Yi had no particular feeling, Xiao Zihan was extremely excited; from her clenched fists, it was evident that she was very nervous and thrilled.

Seeing this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but pull his lips into a somewhat playful smile.

Nowadays, just landing on the moon made Xiao Zihan so excited, who knows what her reaction would be if she was told she could be taken back to ancient times?

With the spacecraft landing, a large transport passage quickly moved to the position of the cabin door.

As the message from the ground base connected, and as the voices from the ground transmitted into the cabin, all the astronauts knowingly fell silent, waiting for the instructions.

At this moment, a difference became evident, which was that almost none of Lin Yi’s people wore any special equipment.

There was simply no preparation for spacesuits.

However, it was different on Ouyang Lei’s side; they began to don their spacesuits.

After all, they would soon exit the cabin to enter the base, and during this time, they must pass through a passage, which they naturally assumed to be a vacuum environment.

After all, they couldn’t imagine anything that could encase the entire spacecraft.

This immense space, extracted vacuum, and refilled with air, would be an enormous project and a wasteful process.

Even though manufacturing oxygen now was easy and simple, only needing water to do so, but this was the moon, where every drop of water was extremely precious.

Although the water source transported by Lin Yi had already created a small pool inside the moon base, the base was too large, and to consistently supply enough oxygen would mean these water sources could only last a year and a half.

If more time was needed, more water sources would have to be supplemented.

Moreover, the water was not solely for making oxygen but also for these people’s daily drinking needs.

Humans are essentially made of water, so daily water intake must be regular.

This means each person consumes a certain amount of water daily.

When it was just three people at the start, it wasn’t much, but now, with 1,000 people arriving at once, it required an enormous amount of supplies.

The food supply was also a significant challenge, and relying solely on transportation wasn’t feasible. This is to say, the lunar base needed to develop self-sustaining plants.

This is also why more personnel weren’t transported all at once. Transporting people here was not the problem.

Lin Yi’s spacecraft could transport tens of thousands of people at once, but the living necessities after arriving were a problem.

Not to mention, the food consumption by 1,000 people daily was a considerable figure.

Of course, the base wasn’t just a sponge waiting to soak up resources; it wasn’t solely dependent on transportation. During construction, Lin Yi had considered this point.

Thus, the base had many growing areas and also breeding bases.

As for the water source, there was no other solution for now; it would have to rely on transportation.

Each time Lin Yi ascended, the majority of the cargo was water and food supplies.

Currently, the lunar base’s food and water reserves were sufficient to support 1,000 people for six months.

However, if within those six months, crops could be cultivated, grains and vegetables grown, this timeframe would greatly extend.

Transporting so many supplies at once, isn’t there a fear of spoilage?

Definitely, but since everything is in a vacuum environment here, there’s no need to worry about food spoiling in such conditions.

There is another point that Lin Yi kept from everyone: the water source wasn’t just what was visible to them. In his System Space, there was a small lake.

That lake was filled with pure freshwater resources.
