Chapter 132 Spot-billed Duck

Between song practice and recording, Li Chengxin began to consider the construction of a rooftop pool.

Generally speaking, artificial pools are dug out, but it is absolutely impossible to use the "dig" method on the roof.In addition, the roof of the building will have a maximum weight limit, and the water in the artificial pool may also cause huge troubles to the entire building due to water leakage.

So, how can we create a pool suitable for various living things on the roof that is constrained by many places?

In order to find the answer, Qi Lanting led Li Chengxin and the live broadcast team to the area with dense high-end hotels in the center of Lanhai City, a place he was familiar with.

Lanhai City is the economic and entertainment center of Huaguo. The luxury hotels in the urban area all have commendable swimming pool facilities. What is the world's highest 20-meter-long infinity swimming pool, what is suspended above the night view of Lanhai City The wrap-around swimming pool, 4400 square meters of outdoor free-form pool...

It took a whole day for Qi Lanting and Li Chengxin to walk around all the luxury swimming pools in the city, making hundreds of thousands of netizens who watched the live broadcast envious.However, no experience has been gained at all with regard to the construction of rooftop ponds.

The difference between a swimming pool and a pond is that there needs to be soil and plants around the pond to attract more creatures, while the swimming pool does not need to consider these.In addition, these luxury hotels have already considered waterproof and load-bearing issues when building swimming pools, and have not considered how to build ponds in unprepared locations.

Visiting the pool is clearly the wrong direction.

Qi Lanting also found that the field he was familiar with could not help in this regard, and his whole figure became bleak. As a result, the female fans who came to watch the live broadcast just to watch Qi Lanting screamed for him.

After contacting the most famous garden design company in Lanhai City, Li Chengxin and his team went to the closed area in the middle of the elevated road loop in the city center during the next live broadcast. The live broadcast team came over to join in the fun.

"Wow! Is this actually a roof?" As a busy elevated road in the city center, Qi Lanting, who often goes in and out of the city center, has passed by here many times, but he didn't realize that the green area in the middle of the ring road was actually built on a large scale. On the roof of the sixth floor of the parking lot.

【Wow!There is really a rooftop pool! 】

[I pass by this small forest every day after get off work, and I always thought it was on the ground, but is it actually 30 meters in the air? 】

[There are ducks in this pond?No wonder ordinary citizens are prohibited from entering...]

When the ducks in the pond saw Li Chengxin and his party walking towards the pond in a mighty manner, they fluttered for a while and actually spread their wings and flew away.

"Is it a wild duck or a wild goose that can fly!" Qi Lanting asked excitedly.

With the convenience of the system, Li Chengxin gave the information about the "duck": "This is a spot-billed duck, which mainly inhabits inland lakes, reservoirs, rivers, ponds, estuaries, sandbars and swamps. During migration and winter Also occurs in coastal and farmland areas."

"So if it is a duck that can fly, is it possible that after our pond is built, it can still go to our place?" Qi Lanting became interested.

"It's really possible." The manager of the roof garden laughed.

Several people continued to walk in and saw the whole picture of the roof garden: "Is this really on the roof? It feels like the kind of ponds and bushes in the ordinary mountains! It's so well made!"

In front of you, there are rockery waterfalls, trees and fields, stone steps and paths, and you feel like you have come to the countryside of Hongming Village in an instant.

Pointing to the three small ponds with different sizes and depths in front of them, the manager introduced: "This is where the municipal government invested to preserve some of the original ecological environment. The three ponds in front of you are built to increase biodiversity. wetlands."

"Then you can ask, how many creatures live in this area now?" Li Chengxin asked.

The manager thought for a while: "In addition to plants, it has been confirmed that there are more than 300 species of creatures seen here."

【Wow!There are so many! 】

[Is this too powerful?How did you get the statistics? 】

[This kind of green space in the urban area that is not open to the public has a high probability of having some school's research projects. 】

As the netizens guessed in the barrage, after Li Chengxin asked, the management staff confirmed the existence of this research project, and took out an atlas made by the project to take pictures for the live broadcast group.

It can be seen in the atlas that on this green wetland, the most common insects are insects, such as bees, dragonflies, swallowtails, water spiders, water bugs, dragon lice, etc. In addition, there are various common freshwater snails, And swallows, spot-billed ducks...

"There are also civet cats here!" A picture caught Qi Lanting's attention and let everyone know that there are more civet cats in this city.

When the manager heard the word "also", he wondered, "Could it be that there are civet cats on the roof of your 200-meter-high building? Isn't this unscientific?"

Li Chengxin quickly explained the location where they found the civet. Speaking of which, the turtles and raccoon dogs they found in the Chenghuang Temple were not found here.

While chatting about the picture book, the spot-billed duck that ran away before flew back into the pond, looking for food in the water in a corner a little far away from everyone.

"It seems that this duck really likes this place." Qi Lanting smacked his lips, "Suddenly I really want to eat roast duck..."

Spot-billed ducks like to breed and raise their young in wetlands rich in food. Now, this spot-billed duck is going back and forth to observe the surrounding environment of the pond, which is a performance of preparing for nesting.

The season is now in early summer, the busiest parenting period for animals of all kinds.

"Awesome, the scene of ducks laying eggs in the city." Qi Lanting couldn't help sucking again.

Li Chengxin pulled Qi Lanting back, blocking the administrator's murderous gaze: "He's just talking..."

The administrator snorted, "I'm sorry you don't dare to come here to catch ducks to eat."

As he spoke, he showed Li Chengxin the newspaper clippings he had collected. It was a newspaper from 2015. It said that when the land was just built, spotted duck eggs were found near the wetland. reports.There are also photos of duck eggs hatching, and great spot-billed ducks playing in the water with a flock of tawny ducklings.

Thinking about it this way, if Li Chengxin and his roof pond are built to attract spot-billed ducks to build their nests, will they be able to see such a scene?
Of course, the prerequisite is to build the pond first, and then there must be enough food that spot-billed ducks like in the pond.

Thinking of this, Li Chengxin took a net bag from the administrator, intending to look at the food resources of the spot-billed duck in this wetland.
