Elven settlers

Chapter 414 The greenhouse is built
After the greenhouse skeleton is assembled, the piping system can be laid.

This part of the work is carried out together with the installation of various supporting equipment in the greenhouse, mainly including the circuits of the ventilation and lighting systems, the water circuits of the drainage and dew collection equipment, as well as the circuit water circuits of the temperature control system and sprinkler equipment.

Although the manufacturer provides complete drawings, this part of the work requires more professionalism and is more difficult than tightening screws.

Fortunately, Rock has an education background in science and engineering. Before time travel, when he was a social worker, he was engaged in a slightly related industry.

So although he is not like the senior time travelers in many novels who can twist everything with his hands, he still knows the basics of circuits.

Installing a greenhouse piping system according to the instructions is not a problem.

And with this practical opportunity, Rock can just accumulate relevant experience as a plumber, because his future house will definitely have water and electricity.

With this part of work experience, at least during the preliminary design, there will be corresponding plans, so that after the house is built, the house will not be dismantled and repaired because there is no reserved location for water circuits, or dangerous steps will not be taken. Beautiful topstitching.

Even if professionals are hired to install water and electricity pipelines, with experience, Rock can better understand the experts' intentions and facilitate construction.

Thinking of this, Rock became more and more satisfied that he had chosen to build a greenhouse as a practice project before building a house.

For example, some small projects have no meaning at all, and large projects are not suitable, so building a greenhouse is just right.

It can not only test new cementitious materials, but also involve most types of work in the house construction process. At the same time, the cost is not very high. It is simply a perfect hands-on project that allows Rock to accumulate a lot of valuable experience.

There is a big difference between doing many things and not doing them. Often, as long as you do it once, your understanding of the matter will be greatly improved.

"Now I have done carpentry, masonry, and masonry, and next I want to be a plumber. Hahaha, I am engaged in more and more industries."

Rock looked at the complicated piping drawings, laughed to himself, then put on his tool belt and started to install the greenhouse piping according to the drawings.

At present, the power source of Rock Ranch is still the solar photovoltaic power generation system purchased for him by his friend Uncle Pierlu.

Therefore, after integrating the power equipment of the greenhouse, Rock did not dig corresponding cable trenches. When it is needed, it can be directly connected to the battery.

Doing this is also a helpless move, because according to the power of these electrical equipment in the greenhouse, there is no way to run them all the time. They can only be connected to an external power supply for power supply when needed.

"This power generation system is a little behind the times, but it can still be used now. Let's do this for now. At the worst, we can buy some solar panels from Uncle Pi."

Rock thought for a while, and it seemed that there was really no place that needed electricity at the moment, so he forgot about the power generation system and continued to lay the greenhouse pipes.

The complexity of this work was a bit beyond Rock's expectations. He thought it could be done in a few hours, but unexpectedly it took a whole day.

After installing the metal frame, he spent the rest of the day laying the greenhouse pipes.

Fortunately, Rock was quite satisfied with the final result. After testing, all the equipment was able to operate normally, and the direction and arrangement of the lines were also very simple and beautiful, taking into account both safety and practicality.

Now the greenhouse finally has a rough look. As long as Rock installs all the greenhouse glass tomorrow, the hard part of the greenhouse will basically be done.

Satisfied, he unplugged the battery socket in the greenhouse's electrical box, reinstalled the battery back into the power generation system, and then went to bed to end the day's work.

A night of silence.Rock continued to build the greenhouse the next day. The metal frame, pipes and various equipment had been installed yesterday, so today only needed to install the greenhouse glass, which would be easier than yesterday.

But soon, Rock discovered that this job was not that easy.

The difficulty in installing greenhouse glass is not how complicated it is to do, but how to transport the glass to the corresponding location without causing damage.

To solve this problem, Rock assembles a pulley block from excess scaffolding. The pulley is controlled by Nidoking and Nidoqueen underneath.

Rock himself was directly hung up by Geranium with a vine whip to install the greenhouse glass himself.

"Come up, go up a little more so you can stop."

Following Rock's instructions, Nidoking pulled a three-meter-long and three-meter-wide greenhouse glass to the designated height.

Then Geranium used a vine whip to lift Rock directly above the glass. Rock gently placed the glass on the sealing strip he had put on the glass frame in advance, and then tightened the screws to secure it. A piece of greenhouse glass was installed. .

Rock has installed more than 20 pieces of glass like this. As the number of times increases, his movements and cooperation with the elves become more and more skillful, and the speed of installing glass becomes faster and faster.

"Come on guys, try to install these glasses before noon so everyone can have a rest in the afternoon."

Rock encouraged the elves, and then continued to work hard.

More than an hour passed, and the greenhouse glass stacked neatly on the grass was finally installed on the greenhouse. The greenhouse for the vegetable garden was basically completed.

"It's so beautiful. I can't wait to grow vegetables in it."

After tightening the last screw, Rock stood on the ground and looked up with the elves at the greenhouse they had built together.

The wall of the greenhouse is [-] meters high, the glass part is [-] meters, and there is a wall base of [-] meters at the bottom.

The base of the wall is made of stone bricks cut from granite, with various colors. The brick joints condensed with shell ash are jade white, and the combination is full of simple and natural beauty.At the same time, the wall base blurs the boundary of the glass greenhouse and echoes the stone wall of the vegetable garden, increasing the integrity and consistency of the greenhouse and vegetable garden.

The part above the base of the wall is entirely made of greenhouse glass and frames.

The frame of the greenhouse is a mixed steel material with a silvery white color unique to metal, but the surface is frosted.

Paired with the translucent greenhouse glass, it looks very high-quality.

At this time, the sun was just high in the sky. Under the sunlight, the entire greenhouse was very bright, as if it was a big house made of crystal.

Beautiful, sturdy, and natural and harmonious at the same time, this is the impression Rock and the elves have on this newly built greenhouse. Overall, they are very satisfied.

　My mentality was broken. I didn’t know when my computer was set to automatically restart at [-] o’clock. As a result, I lost the manuscript...
