Chapter 46: Returning to School and Accumulating Strength
Thanks to the continuous income of the farm, there are now as many as 1,200 fantasy treasures in Loulan's hands, which is a lot of money, but there are too many things he needs to do now: not only do he have six pieces of arable land that need to be upgraded, but he also has to continue to buy fighting spirit protection necklaces and weapons, see who of his classmates can use them, and he can also have multiple helpers, in addition to the specialty store of agricultural products, Loulan also has to reserve another one in case of emergency, as well as those eye-catching inheritances, Loulan also wants to exchange them at the right time.
After some careful consideration, Loulan finally made a choice: in addition to exchanging a Dou Qi necklace and reserving a specialty store, Loulan chose to exchange for another thousand fantasy treasures.
Beginner Private Carry-On Storage, with a one-metre private carry-on storage space, can carry any inanimate items, no weight limit, and it costs 1,000 Fantasy Treasure to redeem.
In Loulan's view, this thing is really an artifact-like existence, he is now acting in the real world, not only need to carry weapons and many tools, but also to carry food and water, and it is not a matter of carrying a bag all the time, and there are many opportunities to get gold and gems in the future, these need to have a place to put them, this one-meter storage space is really the most practical.
After completing the exchange, it was almost midnight, so Loulan went to the cafeteria to eat something again, and took the cakes and candies promised to bring to Guan Jingyun (fruits can extract fructose, and candy will appear in the canteen) and some snacks and fruits, all kinds of delicacies almost filled her storage space.
This time, because of a cubic meter of storage space, Loulan can bring more things, and he was very pleasantly surprised to find that in this space, the food can still be kept fresh, and it can be taken out at any time, which is the most delicious state, and it is very convenient to use.
After returning to the cafeteria, Loulan found that the previous "chat group that doesn't sleep in the middle of the night" was left with her roommate and Guan Jingyun Xie Meina, because now the food has become scarce, and everyone can't eat enough, so naturally they don't have the energy to chat.
Guan Jingyun and the others naturally have no shortage of food, and the snacks given by Loulan can also strengthen their physique and replenish their physical strength, even if they sleep later than others every night, they are full of energy the next day, and they work faster and better than others.
Guan Jingyun's chat group is still in the old place, but when it is different, this time Loulan was discovered by Guan Jingyun as soon as she appeared, this big beauty, although she is in the corner, she has been looking around, waiting for Loulan's return.
After another round of food giveaways, Loulan sat next to Guan Jingyun and whispered in her ear:
"Uncles and aunts are fine, don't worry, they're fine."
After finishing speaking, Loulan showed her the video recorded by Guan Jingyun's parents, and watched Guan Jingyun cry on the spot, and everyone thought that Loulan had bullied her.
But soon, Guan Jingyun, who learned that her parents were safe and sound, became happy, and took the initiative to take Xie Meina to wash the fruits brought back by Loulan and distribute them to everyone.
After more than an hour, everyone was finally tired, so they all went back to rest, and Loulan secretly stuffed the Douqi necklace to Guan Jingyun and told her to keep it with her.
Because of the storage space, Loulan brought back a lot more food this time, except for half of the two daughters Guan Jingyun and Xie Meina, he gave the rest to Luo Haixuan, let him share it with a few of his roommates, and by the way, he also sent some to the instructor and a few of their teachers, now the food supply is insufficient, Loulan can't manage all the staff, but to ensure that the teachers don't starve, he can still do it.
Of course, Loulan can also start a store now to supply enough food to everyone, but first, Loulan feels that it has not yet reached that point, and secondly, Loulan still has to concentrate on making money, reclaiming more wasteland, and upgrading more arable land is the most important thing, after all, once the food supply is interrupted, there are nearly 15,000 teachers and students plus officers and soldiers in this school, and the daily food needs are at least 20,000 catties, with Loulan's current production capacity, it is completely insufficient.
The next half a month was a relatively stable period of time, but the increase in the number of zombies still led to more and more pressure on the army's side, especially the surge in the number of animal zombies and bird zombies, so that the army has begun to use howitzers and small missile vehicles in addition to ordinary firearms.
Among all the zombies, in fact, humans are still the best to deal with, those animal zombies are faster and more flexible than humans, and there are more in number, in fact, they are more difficult to kill, among them, especially rat zombies are the most obvious.
The most terrifying thing about the rat zombies is the number, once these guys appear, they are in groups, thousands, each of which has a powerful infectious effect, even if it is just a missed kill, once the soldier is bitten, he will immediately turn into a zombie, and then turn around to attack his comrades, which is easy to cause the collapse of the defense line.
Fortunately, this time the army brought enough equipment, equipped with a lot of Spitfire armored vehicles and individual flamethrowers, which can effectively kill these guys, but after several rat swarm attacks, the army has also sacrificed hundreds of soldiers, and the situation is very grim.
What's even worse is that according to the grapevine, some people in the army revealed that because of the large number of animal zombies, many cities have completely fallen and become zombie cities, and even many military garrisons have been completely captured.
This half a month's precious time is good news for Loulan, he concentrated his financial resources on reclaiming wasteland and upgrading cultivated land, and even bought the Wild Grass Terminator Potion at any cost to improve efficiency, in about fifteen days, he not only successfully reclaimed ten new cultivated land, but also upgraded a full fifteen pieces of secondary farmland, theoretically, so that the daily grain output reached an astonishing 7,000 catties, if it is to save food, it can already be guaranteed that everyone in the school will not starve to death.
Moreover, with the continuous deepening of the reclamation work, Loulan unexpectedly obtained a lot of resource cards, such as reindeer cards, crab cards, lobster cards, yak cards, etc., and after several intensive hunts, they added a lot of goods to Jack's store in the black market.
It is worth mentioning that Jack is actually a business talent, and he actually started the business very quickly, coupled with the recent explosion of cards on Loulan's side, he has become a big supplier of fresh food on the black market, and he also sells top wine and various gems, and the business is very prosperous.
In addition to selling Loulan's inventory, Jack also launched a consignment service inspired by Loulan to help those black market individual customers like him sell goods on behalf of them, and this service was soon warmly welcomed by individual customers, who asked him to sell goods on behalf of him, and the business was in a mess.
Gradually, the entire black market began to know that Jack's store had the largest variety of goods, selling almost everything, and even the merchants who opened stores in it often went to him to shop for Taobao or something, which was very popular.
Since the business is very profitable, after careful consideration, Loulan did not draw Jack's funds, but let him continue to use the money he earned to continue to expand his business, and when he encountered good goods, he directly bought them himself, and then sold them at a high price to earn more profits.
With the expansion of the scale, Jack got several of his own people as helpers, so Loulan increased a large amount of salary expenditure, and the profit money had to be put into operation, so that although Loulan opened up a new business, it became more short of money, but after all, the business on the black market cannot expand indefinitely, after a certain degree of business, there will be a surplus, and then it will be able to provide Loulan with stable cash flow, so as to effectively support the construction of the farm.
All Loulan needed was patience.
Of course, there is also bad news, that is, the progress of the four great doctors in the biological laboratory is slow, and the research on zombies has no results, Loulan went to the laboratory several times on this matter, but every time he was blasted out as soon as he entered the door, and he didn't know how far things had progressed.
However, these days, the strong smell of Chinese medicine fills the farm every day, and it is obvious that the four great doctors are actually very busy.
On this morning, the helicopters transporting supplies actually changed from one to four, not only bringing three times the amount of military supplies and munitions, but also bringing many senior officers.
As soon as the meeting opened, it lasted for half a day, and after lunch at noon, Loulan and the students were about to rest, when the school radio suddenly sounded:
Attention to all teachers and students, please note that I am Vice President Xu Wenzhi, please come to the auditorium immediately, please come to the auditorium immediately!
After the announcement, the campus was soon busy again, and everyone gathered in the auditorium.
This time, on the rostrum, in addition to Principal Xu Wenzhi, there were also many senior officers, and after all the personnel arrived, the square-faced officer who was still responsible for protecting their school in Loulan picked up the microphone:
"Students, I want to announce a very bad news now, after nearly twenty days of fighting, most of our country has been completely occupied by zombies, the army has suffered heavy casualties, but it is impossible to effectively control the spread of zombies, especially after the infection of wild animals, groups of people poured into the city, in view of this situation, even the defense is becoming more and more difficult, continuing to hold on to the current everywhere, in fact, there is no difference from waiting for death."
