The next day, a meeting of more than 300 people was held inside the base, including the elite of the scientific community and representatives of skilled workers.

Yu Yifeng sat at the front of the meeting and touched the hair on his sideburns, he stayed up all night last night, and after disbanding the fanatical crowd, he spent almost the whole night learning about the operation of the entire base. There are joys and sorrows, and the situation is slightly better than expected, but it is not necessarily too good.

The ruling team in the base was killed by them, and they could only chase ducks to the shelves, and temporarily established a government organization.

First of all, Calvin and the others unexpectedly expressed their obedience to themselves, and they were imprisoned for the crime of rebellion, and there was no resistance in between. Maybe he himself has been brainwashed by himself, but it's a good thing.

The second good thing is that after being troubled by Calvin, more than 20,000 people believed that Yu Yifeng was the legendary savior who could save them...... And the remaining 30,000 people, of which more than 5,000 were attacked by the mob, happened to be rescued by Yu Yifeng and his party, and these people also became his loyal supporters.

Most of the others are hiding in underground facilities, and although they are not at the scene, they have watched some videos and listened to some rumors, and are currently in a state of doubt......

In short, the people's sentiment is generally quite stable. Thinking of this, Yu Yifeng had a headache again, in fact, he didn't have any particularly big ambitions, who wants to be the leader of the moon base, isn't this forced......

As for the secrets of Perfection and the alien spaceship, it seems that it has been completely exposed. But except for a small number of people who reacted, the rest of the people seemed to be numb, and they didn't feel anything particularly big, after all, when it came to the moment before the life and death of the entire race, who would think about anything like lifespan.

If you are going to die tomorrow, what is the point of living for 100 million years?

The real trouble is...... That's a real big problem!

Thinking of this, Yu Yifeng no longer hesitated, and said in a deep voice, "Everyone! I have called you here, not for anything else, but for the sake of the survival of mankind! ”

"At present, all positions in our lunar base are in a state of passive absenteeism. On the one hand, the reason is that the former top of the ruling government has been attacked, and the base is unmanaged, and on the other hand, it is also the psychological factor of the people. ”

"The earth is destroyed, each of us is full of sadness, despair, we need rest, we need comfort, there are countless emotions to vent......"

"I know it's very inhuman to get people to work at this time. But all of you here are elites, and you should know one thing, and that is - we will no longer be able to get supplies from the earth! And our moon base cannot produce supplies that can meet the needs of 50,000 people! ”

"We lack water, we lack oxygen, we lack food, we lack almost everything!" Yu Yifeng's voice became higher and higher, "Time is pressing, those of us who survived, if we sit back like this, we will lose the chance to survive......"

At this moment, Dr. Roman, who was sitting directly across from him, spoke. He is the chief biologist in the base, and he is also a person Yu Yifeng is more familiar with, "Captain Yu Yifeng, if you have anything you want to say, just say it." Although we have lived here for a long time, we have our own jobs and do not know what is going on in the base. ”

As the words fell, some of the people around them nodded.

"Okay, then I'll be straight to the point." Yu Yifeng said, "First of all, it's a food problem! ”

"Suppose a person has to eat one pound of grain a day, and our base has a population of 50,000, and the amount of grain consumed in a day is - 25 tons! However, we currently eat high-energy compressed foods rich in sugar and fat, which can be reduced by two-thirds, that is, about eight or nine tons of food a day.

The people around them all nodded, and the calculation was quite accurate.

"Before the destruction of the earth, our Victory spacecraft carried exactly 400 tons of food, plus the original base, about a little more than 700 tons...... That is, it can only last for more than 90 days, even if you save a little, a hundred days! ”

"A hundred days, only a hundred days! In 100 days, we will have a food crisis! If there is no food, I don't need to explain what will happen in the end, right? ”

One hundred days, a little more than three months, and everyone fell silent, which is too short! A feeling of burning eyebrows instantly appeared in the bottom of my heart.

The people here are all elites, with smart brains and broad knowledge, if this continues...... It was as if they had seen themselves starving to death. When people are hungry, they can do everything, and they will really be hell on earth when they eat their own kind and eat their own children.

"So, we have to hurry up and do something!" Yu Yifeng slammed his fist on the steel table, "We still have time, there is still hope!" ”

Is there a grain production base on the Moon? Yes! But output is insignificant compared to demand.

The grain base of the moon mainly produces agricultural products such as vegetables and fruits, because the taste of those high-energy foods is really not very good, and you may get sick if you eat too much, so people need vegetables and fruits to improve the taste, and by the way, supplement some of the fibers necessary for the human body.

But even so, the price of these vegetables and fruits is staggeringly high, at least a hundred times higher than on the planet!

Of course, other grains are not produced on a large scale, not only because of technical reasons, but also because the production cost is too high, far less cheap than that of shipping from the earth.

"Captain Yu Yifeng, maybe we can grow rice on a large scale!" The one who spoke was a middle-aged man in his thirties, who was in charge of the entire agricultural base and the one who knew it best.

"If we don't care about the cost, we can grow rice on a large scale! There are some rice crops that grow in about three months, and if cultivated properly, we can produce the first batch of food before the food crisis hits! ”

Everyone listened, the spirit is lifted, soilless cultivation on the moon can be said to be a relatively mature technology, soilless rice yield per mu is more than 1,000 catties, the most important thing is that it is very space-saving, petri dishes can be stacked up layer by layer. If one acre of land can be cultivated upwards for ten layers, it can be said that the yield per mu is 10,000 catties!

According to this calculation, as long as 500 acres, which is equivalent to 330,000 square meters of land, can feed 50,000 people.

But before the words fell, a voice forcibly shattered this illusion, it was Dr. Roman, the chief biologist, who unceremoniously spoke, "Mr. Cherf, I have to warn you that you are thinking too simply! Our food base is not that large, and it is feasible to expand it, but a series of subsequent supplies need to keep up. We need facilities, we need petri dishes, culture fluids, inorganic salts, floor lamps, air conditioners, and so on...... It's going to take time. ”

"What's more – carbon dioxide! This is not the Earth, we lack carbon dioxide! Have you ever wondered how plants can grow without carbon dioxide? ”

"As we all know, most of the oxygen we breathe is produced industrially, and photosynthesis accounts for only a small part. As for the carbon dioxide produced by breathing over the years, most of it is due to air leakage because it is not taken seriously...... Lost! ”

"I wanted to expand the grain base, but it was for this reason that I put it on hold." 、

The middle-aged man sat down with a grim face, and he also realized the importance of carbon dioxide.

"To solve this problem, we have to build a new ecosystem, a biosphere! This is no longer such a simple problem as growing food, but an all-encompassing and systemic problem! Dr. Roman exclaimed.
