At 6 o'clock in the morning the next morning, Fang Ye woke up and turned off the alarm clock in a daze.
After yawning, he sighed, "Hey, how can you be so tired after a festival."
Visitors come to the zoo to have fun and relax! However, as the principal of the kindergarten, I have to consider all aspects. I have been busy before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and when I relax after the festival, I don't want to get out of bed anymore.
Fang Ye really wanted to rest for a few days, but the National Day came next, so he still had to be busy.
After going to the toilet, I remembered when I washed my face and brushed my teeth: "By the way, let's see how much popularity rose yesterday."
Open the system panel, after yesterday's activity, the popularity value rose by 3w in one day.
I accidentally saw the prompt message of the system.
"Ding, the zoo successfully held a holiday event, allowing visitors to increase their understanding of animal knowledge while enjoying the fun! Congratulations to the host, and get the holiday celebration package*1!"
"Huh, there are celebration packages?"
Fang Ye estimated that it was just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the prompt message that appeared at 12 o'clock in the evening, but he was already asleep at that time, so he didn't hear it.
Surprise joy!
Rubbing his hands with expectation in his heart, wondering what good things can be made?
Draw!
A string of pleasant reminders sounded:
"Congratulations to the host, get 30,000 Luye Coins!
Congratulations to the host for getting a [Super Snowmaker]! "
Fang Ye was overjoyed. Of course, the more Luye Coins are the better. Although they are not lacking now, they can be used when building venues in the future.
Now
But what is this [Super Snow Machine]?
Look at the item description.
Super Snow Generator: No need to use water (Super Snow Generator pretends to drink water). It produces 50 cubic meters of snow per hour, and the produced snow can last for 3 days without melting. After the snow has melted, it will not turn into water and disappear without a trace. The cooling effect is determined by the power consumption.
"Fuck!"
Fang Ye's eyes widened and he couldn't help but explode.
This snow machine is too dark technology!
Because Linhai has a subtropical and partial tropical climate, the winter is about ten degrees Celsius like the spring in northern cities, and it is not below minus when it is very hot in summer, which can reach 30 degrees.
This kind of climate is good and bad for the zoo. The advantage is that tropical animals will be more adaptable here, and animals can be exhibited throughout the year.
In some zoos in the north, when it snows in the winter, many animals will return to the backyard, otherwise it will be too cold outside. Turn on the warm heating in the back shed and go out when the weather picks up in spring.
The disadvantage is that some animals living in the north may not adapt to the unique natural behaviors in cold environments.
For example, Siberian tigers, whose fur can help them withstand the cold, and become more active in winter. Winter is also the season for them to mate.
For brown bears, lower temperatures in winter will enter a state of hibernation, but even in zoos in the north, there is rarely a chance to see such behavior.
Polar bears from the Arctic live in a world of ice and snow for a year. When they arrive in a tropical zoo, it is difficult to cool down the pool, unless the air conditioner is turned on in an indoor venue.
But open-air venues can be built for thousands of square meters, and the cost of building such a large indoor venue is more than a little bit higher. At most, a few hundred square meters can be built. There is more than one animal for a few thousand square meters. The electricity bill for air-conditioning is also larger. The more it consumes, the more the air conditioner is usually turned on in a small space in the backyard.
The cost of the large environment is too high to be able to cool down, animals are uncomfortably hot, and indoor spaces and animal activities are uncomfortable. This is a contradiction that cannot be reconciled.
If the animals cannot be provided with suitable environmental conditions, the best way is not to force them to raise them.
The climate of Linhai Zoo is more suitable for subtropical and tropical animals. Raising a Siberian tiger or the like provides a pool for cooling in summer. Although it is not possible to play with ice in winter, it does not affect normal life.
In addition, the southern part of the tropical environment does not snow in winter and lacks a very important scenery.
Fang Ye has also studied snow making machines, and wanted to try if he could make snow in the zoo so that the animals could experience the feeling of snow.
The formation of snow requires two conditions, one is water vapor saturation, and the other is condensation nuclei in the air.
The snow maker uses this principle. High-pressure water and air are mixed at the nozzle, and the heat is taken away by volume expansion to make the droplets solidify into ice crystals, which artificially meet the conditions for snow formation.
However, snowmaking in this way is also dependent on the outside temperature. Although snow can be made in summer, the higher the temperature, the lower the efficiency of snowmaking. Generally, around 0°C is suitable for snowmaking.
Moreover, snow making machines have an impact on the environment and waste water resources. Usually one ton of water can make two cubic meters of snow. After artificial snow making, most of the water will evaporate through the air or seep into the ground and cannot be recycled.
In addition, snow making machines generally take groundwater from nearby ground for large areas of snowmaking. Such a large amount of water is lost, which will cause spring droughts in mountainous areas.
So Fang Ye thought for a while. The temperature in Linhai is also ten degrees Celsius in winter, and the snow-making efficiency is not high. There is no need to waste water resources to make some fancy snow scenes.
It's just a pity that I can't see the golden pheasant flying in the snow and the tiger playing in the snow.
But with this super snow maker, snow making is much more convenient!
In the game "Zoo Star", the snow on the ground with snow will not melt. Fang Ye also wondered if the construction interface does not have this kind of terrain. Now the super snow machine can achieve a similar effect, and the snow can last for three days. Not change.
And it doesn't even use water to make snow! Of course, after the snow has melted, there will be no water. One positive and one negative cancel out, or it is equivalent to a projector that projects an interactive snow image, so it is still reasonable?
Hmm... I can only say that the black technology of the system is quite awesome As for the attached cooling function, I don't know how much it can reduce at most. You can try it out in winter.
With the super snow machine, you can consider introducing some animals such as emperor penguins, seals and sea lions, and tourists can also enjoy the beautiful snow scenery!
Fang Ye suddenly remembered something: "System, it's National Day soon. Are there any gift packs for National Day activities?"
There are so many festivals throughout the year. What other animal festivals such as World Tiger Day and International Bird Love Day? Is it just holding an event instead of getting a gift bag?
The system's icy words broke his illusion: "The holiday celebration package will be re-obtained in half a year!"
"Okay." Fang Ye said regretfully.
In other words, you can receive two holiday celebration packages a year! The next time is almost until April next year.
