Chapter 110: About Food

Ding You appeared at the foot of the mountain, although he was in a wheelchair, but the majority of soldiers and civilians were very happy to see him.

Because Ding You is the backbone of the base, some of the residents who stayed behind were still skeptical about whether Ding You could wake up smoothly, but now they are relieved to see the real person appear.

The happiest were Cheng Hai and Zhao Gang, as well as Sun Tianhao, when they saw Ding You wake up, the look on their faces can really be described as extremely surprised.

If it weren't for Ding You's injury, the three of them would have come over to have a bear hug with him.

"Lao Cheng, Zhao Gang, and Tianhao, hurry up, put down the work in hand, let's have a meeting first."

On the way, Ding You asked the main control center to inform Qin Mutian, Tang Jianye and others to have a meeting at the management sub-center at the bottom of the mountain, this time it was an enlarged meeting of the Supreme Council, including Yao Songlin and other other management of the base should also participate together.

It should be said that the atmosphere of this meeting was rather serious. Although seeing that Ding You was sober, the big guy's mood was quite happy, and it was one of the few good news harvested in the past few days. But everyone saw that Ding You's face was very serious, and when they thought of their departing comrades-in-arms, their mood also became depressed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I think everyone is also aware of the situation of our base now, when I went down the mountain just now, I saw ruins everywhere, to be honest, I was in a very bad mood. In addition, a few comrades-in-arms who got along day and night left, very depressed and helpless. Here, I would like to start by saying that I am sorry to everyone, as the owner of the base, I have not been able to build a solid camp for everyone, and I am sorry for the suffering of everyone. ”

Everyone didn't expect Ding You to say this, and when they saw the boss gritting his teeth and standing up, they were immediately nervous. The big guys all hurriedly stood up, trying to stop Ding You from getting up.

Ding You waved his hand at everyone solemnly, and continued: "Everyone deserves this apology, but it was my negligence that caused this situation, and I must apologize to everyone." ”

Everyone was stunned, in fact, everyone knew in their hearts that there was nothing wrong with Ding You.

In these last days, smaller survivor settlements are almost often plundered by large survivor areas. Although the Deep Blue Star Base is rich in food and materials, it is indeed not large in terms of scale.

Even if nothing happens now, it will definitely create envy and jealousy in the future development process, and then face risks. It's just that this crisis came so quickly and so powerful that people were unprepared.

"Xiaoyou, don't say this, everyone understands that it's not your fault alone." Yao Songlin was still biased towards Ding You, and he felt uncomfortable hearing him say this, so he hurriedly spoke out of relief.

Naturally, everyone else has to help Ding You speak, and try their best to clear the responsibility of the boss, after all, the future development still needs a confident Ding You, and he can't be so depressed.

However, everyone could also see that Ding You said so, but he felt that the spirit of the whole person had changed. It seems that he has matured a lot overnight, and he speaks unusually boldly.

Ding You waved his hand at the subordinates in front of him who exonerated himself, and continued with a wry smile: "Don't be nervous, everyone, I'm not discouraged. On the contrary, I am now more and more determined to go all the way with you, please believe me, I will definitely cheer up and work hard to create a better future for the Deep Blue Star Base. ”

Everyone was stunned again, looking at Ding You's solemn and firm face, as if he had changed someone. However, everyone is gratified from the bottom of their hearts for this change in the boss.

"I convened everyone here today, mainly to discuss the next development of the base, I just heard Xiaonuo on the road said that the population has decreased a lot, of course, the reason is clear, and I understand many powerless factors. But I hope you don't mind, I believe that with the joint efforts of the big guys, the Deep Blue Star Base will definitely grow stronger and stronger in the future. Let me start with my opinion......"

didn't ask for the opinions of others, Ding You said it first, which had never happened in previous high-level meetings. However, the big guy happily accepted it, and felt that Ding You should still have this style of being a hero in troubled times.

Ding You means that after the battle, many buildings in the new city of Yamashita have been seriously damaged. Rather than wasting a lot of manpower and material resources to rebuild, it is better to put aside for the time being, and first repair the important buildings in the military administration area and the material trading area, and as for the residential areas and other supporting buildings, we can take a break.

In the living area of Sixth Avenue below the main base, it is not a big problem to settle 3 or 40,000 people, and it is also protected by a high-energy electromagnetic shield. This battle also proved how important it is to have high-tech defensive weapons, and the main base was not affected too much.

Anyway, the population of the entire base is less than 15,000 people combined, so it is better to live in the sixth block. The mountain is now being reinforced, and then it is mainly used as a garrison for combat troops.

In this way, even if you face a second or third defensive battle in the future, it will not cause too much damage.

Regarding this suggestion, the big guy also thinks that it is feasible after discussion, and at present, as long as the arsenal is protected, the security protection of the main base is relatively easy and easy. Simply let all the idle residents move to Sixth Avenue to avoid casualties and give everyone the greatest sense of security.

As for Ding You's second thought, that is, from now on, the food and material storage capacity of the Deep Blue Star Base will meet the consumption of the entire base for 3 months. The advantage of this is to send a message to the existing residents that the Deep Blue Star base has not collapsed, it is still stable, and there is enough food for the residents to survive.

This can also reassure people's hearts, saving them from worrying all day long about eating this meal and not getting the next meal, and if they all run away at that time, Ding You will not even be able to find anyone to grow food.

Speaking of growing food, Wang Luyi of Sunflower Farm was also invited to participate in this meeting, and now he is the person in charge of the planting work at the base. Ding You made a decision on the spot and allocated him 70 acres of planting and breeding equipment, plus 30 acres of the mountainside basin, a total of 100 acres of high-tech planting equipment.

As long as it is functioning normally, it will not be difficult to feed 3,500 people a year. As long as Ding You can continue to replenish energy points for the supermarket bracelet in the future, he can also do it if he wants to free up enough to feed 100,000 or 200,000 people at that time.

The population under the old witch's command is estimated to be larger, and with her supermarket space food supply capacity, it is impossible to provide food rations for so many people.

Ding You also saw in her space that she did not have a complete set of high-tech planting and cultivation equipment, so now he took this opportunity to ask Zhou Qingquan if there was any other way to grow food in large quantities in the last days.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Qingquan thought for a while and explained that at present, if you talk about planting alone, it should be that the planting and cultivation equipment that Ding You took out is the most advanced. Originally, it was a device developed by humans for the purpose of stationing production on outer space planets and for human beings to immigrate to other planets.

But there is also another way to produce food in large quantities.

Ding You was very surprised when he heard this, and everyone else also looked at Dr. Zhou Qingquan one by one. All hope to be able to harvest good news from his mouth.

"Mr. Ding, that's right, if we are growing food and raising some animals, our existing planting and cultivation equipment is the most advanced on the earth, and the grains and meat produced should be the most nutritious and infinitely close to the pre-apocalyptic level. However, these devices are precious after all, and it is unlikely that they will be laid on a large scale. So in order to cope with the growing population on the planet, some researchers have invented synthetic foods. ”

Listening to what Zhou Qingquan said, Ding You became more and more curious in his heart, he didn't know what the so-called food synthesis meant, could it be that it was the same as the mutated food he knew before, which was produced from mutated animals and plants?

"No, no, boss, you misunderstood what Dr. Zhou meant, I've heard of the so-called synthetic food." Ding You didn't expect Wang Luyi to have heard of this, so he looked at him curiously.

Wang Luyi didn't expect that as soon as he answered, Ding You looked at him like a curious baby.

However, this topic was originally said by Zhou Qingquan, and he was embarrassed to snatch it back. Besides, Zhou Qingquan is a doctor after all, and he specializes in scientific research, and he Wang Luyi is a skilled worker in the planting industry.

So after a few modest words, he returned the opportunity to answer this question to Zhou Qingquan.

Zhou Qingquan didn't mind, and when he saw that everyone looked at him again, he cleared his throat and explained.

The so-called synthetic food is actually not the kind of thing that Ding You imagined that was produced with mutated ingredients and had no nutritional value. Instead, cellulose is extracted from fresh grains or meat, and artificial stem cells are industrially synthesized, which are rich in fine muscle tissue and look like fresh food.

Because of the added nutrients and the appearance and taste of fresh grain meat, it also ensures the food consumption of the global population during the period of massive increase in the earth's population.

This technology has been well established decades ago, and the efficiency of food expansion is very high.

For example, by extracting 50 grams of fresh pork and extracting cellulose for artificial stem cell cultivation, 5 kilograms of synthetic pork can be produced, which is equivalent to a 100-fold increase in production.

This explanation really opened Ding You's eyes, if he has this kind of technology, then the food produced in the 100 acres of high-tech planting and cultivation warehouses will be enough for 350,000 people to eat after synthesis and expansion.

This is really too bullish, Ding You is enthusiastic when he hears it, and he can't wait to have this kind of technology that is both nutritious and harmless.

However, at present, there is no such equipment in his own supermarket space, and Ding You has no choice but to suspect that the old witch has this kind of technology. Or maybe she doesn't, but that so-called League of Survivors has the technology.

Because the old witch is the owner of the supermarket space, the so-called space agent. Therefore, the Survivor Alliance, which does not have fresh food, needs to work with the old witch to obtain fresh food to expand production.

The two sides are embarrassed, and this is definitely how they hooked up.
