Chapter 1169: Difficult Grain Production
After Yue Hengyi arrived at the destination, he had already left Yuzhou a long distance at this time, and the surroundings were still dark, under normal circumstances, the time to work was during the day, but the work here was in the early hours of the morning, someone found the diesel generator from the dirty car body, and then pulled the rope, the diesel generator immediately made a roaring sound, and then drove an incandescent lamp, and the dim light appeared to illuminate the limited land around.
And for such a powerful person as Yue Hengyi, letting him work here now is definitely overkill, because his strongest ability is to make meritorious contributions on the battlefield, not to do chores in the rear.
It's just that the current Yue Hengyi must know what most people on Shen Feng's side think, otherwise, even if he sees Shen Feng in the future, he will still be the same as before, before he has time to say his plan, and then he will be driven out.
So Yue Hengyi started working right away, pitiful for him, the world's top ability, but now he only has the option of doing chores, and he himself doesn't have too many ideas, because he knows that he is just experiencing life here, and he can't work here all his life.
Yue Hengyi had a hoe in his hand, waving it???????????????? The time is also very flexible, after all, he is a stranger, even when it is time to work, his strength is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and after he works like this, the foreman nodded with satisfaction after seeing this scene.
Yue Hengyi had already heard the voices of the people around him talking when he was working, and there were many people who were working and started to discuss at the same time.
"Have you heard of it? Now it's a mess outside, I don't know how many people are starving to death, although it is difficult for us to eat here, but we are not starving to death. It's just that I pity those relatives in my hometown, most of them can't survive! Someone was wielding a hoe while sighing, as if he was glad that he had come to Yuzhou.
This person was talking, and the current situation suddenly seemed to open a conversation, and everyone also began to discuss the future at this time.
"Who's to say it isn't? I didn't expect that only Yuzhou is the last pure land, but all people have to work hard to produce food. ”
"I heard that the production base is still expanding, but there is a lack of plastics, and now it has not been able to expand quickly!"
"This is also a matter of no choice, after all, at this time, the oil production in the south has reached the limit, there is not enough sand here, and it is not so easy to burn glass, I heard that the city lord is going to repair the wind power station in the future, that is, to repair the grain production base, this will not be too much expense!"
Yue Hengyi was listening to everyone's discussions, and he gradually understood that even ordinary people have their own judgments about the current situation, and what these ordinary people are eager for now is to have a peaceful and stable life, and other things are not important.
"It seems that most people want this life to continue, but they don't think that if they can return to the good life they once had, they will be happier!" Yue Hengyi had the most basic judgment in his heart.
After digging for a long time, the sun has risen from the east, when the sun rises, the sky in the distance appears morning glow, these morning glows appear very red, from a distance it looks like a fire appeared in the distant sky.
Originally, the morning glow would never be so gorgeous during the day, but in fact, the reason why this situation occurred was because there was a lot of volcanic ash entering the stratosphere, which had formed an aerogel, which would not settle easily, and could block the direct rays of the sun, so after several refractions, when the sun came out, the morning glow in the distance was even more red.
Yue Hengyi suddenly thought of a serious question, and then hurriedly asked his father beside him, "Why don't you use an excavator to dig up this soil?" Isn't that more efficient? Is it because of the lack of gas? ”
"If you look at the environment we're in right now, you can see why we are digging up the dirt by hand. If it is the soil in a flat area, there are already excavators to excavate, here are basically hillsides or woods in these places, the excavator is not easy to enter and is not good, to dig out the soil silkworms, so in these places there is only manual excavation. Yue Hengyi's father said.
Yue Hengyi probably understood the principle, and then continued to work hard, and worked for a morning, scraping a lot of soil on the entire hillside, leaving only a lot of solid soil in the deep strata, these soils are very hard, only the roots can be rooted here, but due to climate reasons, many trees have died, so it is useless to keep these soil layers, it is better to send them to the production base.
At noon, someone finally brought food, and these people carried large iron buckets in their hands, some of which contained dishes, and some of which contained rice???????????????? Most of them are white rice, and as for the dishes, they are very simple, that is, a lot of potatoes and stewed cabbage, and the few oil stars are almost invisible.
"This thing doesn't seem to have much nutrition, just eat a bowl of rice and a dish, can this also feed people?" Yue Hengyi was already very uncomfortable when he saw the food appear.
The nutrients needed by human beings can basically be summarized into six kinds, and these six nutrients are very damaging to the body no matter what is missing, and now these meals in front of him, in addition to starch, are a cabbage, no fat, no protein, and no other trace elements needed, if this kind of meal is used for a long time, it will definitely not be good for the body, and it can only maintain immortality.
"Since you know that this thing is not nutritious, it means that you still have the ability to think normally, so I ask you, if we provide food to other places here, then can we still eat this bowl of rice and one dish?" Yue Hengyi's father suddenly asked such a question.
Yue Hengyi didn't know how to answer, he just lowered his head and thought about it for a while, and found that this was indeed the case, even Yuzhou, which has the ability to produce food, has fallen to the current point, if they are still allowed to provide food support to other places, it will be difficult for the strongman, and there may be a famine here at that time!
"But even if the reality is like this, I don't think my previous plan was wrong, because only by ending this troubled world can everyone live a good life, and the effort required during a period is worth it." Yue Hengyi continued.
"I didn't expect you to still think like this, then let's continue to work, and by the afternoon, we will probably have to go to the production base!" Yue Hengyi's father shook his head, but he didn't expect his son to change his mind.
It is very hard to dig up these layers of soil on the slopes or hills of the earth, but everyone is in full swing, because people know that they can only eat if they work hard, and this is the only way to feed their families.
In the afternoon, a group of people climbed on the top of the truck and sat down, there was a lot of dirt in the truck body, everyone sat on the mound, looked at the surrounding scenery while walking, chatted, and then talked and laughed and came to the production base.
Because they all carried temporary work permits on their bodies, they were not blocked when entering and leaving the production base, but Yue Hengyi had already discovered that around this area covered with a large amount of plastic film, there were many soldiers patrolling, and it seemed that there was also a tight defense here.
"It seems that the people here attach great importance to food production, so until now, they have always been wary of people who have a heart approaching here!" Yue Hengyi said in his heart.
Later, people entered this large production base, only to find that there were many plastic greenhouses in it, and people were coming and going in these greenhouses, some were harvesting crops, some were changing the soil, and more people were collecting food and transporting it to distant places to dry.
So a city with a population of millions is serving this production base, and if this production base stops working, it will be even more difficult to produce food.
"Hurry up and change the soil, all the people go and dig up the soil that has been harvested, and replace it with new soil! The excavated soil is gathered and put in other places, the speed is a little faster, don't let the Qingxian wait for a long time! "Someone was quickly directing everyone from a distance.
And people are very busy working non-stop now, but even this speed is still too slow, after all, it is not so simple to grow crops, in addition to changing the soil, there is also fertilization and rooting, in addition to controlling the temperature and water volume,???????????????? Keep the humidity in the air within a constant range so that the crops don't die.
Yue Hengyi saw a situation that shocked him with his own eyes, because after he came to the edge of a plastic greenhouse, he saw that countless crops in this greenhouse were growing rapidly, and there were many corns planted in it, and after the corn was sown, it was only a few minutes that it had been drilled out of the soil, and then someone quickly began to water, and under the watering, these corns grew rapidly, and someone turned on the electric fan to blow away the pollen, and then the corn began to mature.
"It's just too fast! But in the previous time, why didn't Chang Jianyi use this ability to produce food in large quantities? After Yue Hengyi saw the growth rate of today's crops again, he couldn't help but marvel, because this growth rate was too fast, far beyond human imagination.
While Yue Hengyi was pondering, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere around him had changed, just now it was still the scene of everyone busy working, but in an instant, the surrounding crowd had dispersed, and instead of rows of soldiers surrounded here, and the guns were already aimed at him.
"Where the hell are you from? What are you doing here? Is it trying to wreak havoc? The soldier at the head suddenly asked.
"You misunderstood, we are just here to eat, and after work, we can go over to take revenge and feed our family, is there anything wrong with that?" Yue Hengyi hurriedly defended himself.
"It's really nonsense, ordinary people want to make a living, and we can't control it at all. But you're already a supernatural being, and you're still pretending to be here, tell me, what the hell are you trying to do, or we'll shoot!" The surrounded soldiers hurriedly shouted loudly.
Yue Hengyi had already seen through his disguise, so he could only take off his mask helplessly, and then said: "Don't do it, everyone is your own person, I have no malicious intent, I just want to see how you produce food, I am Yue Hengyi, a friend of your city lord!" ”
The soldiers were relieved after seeing each other's identities, originally they were all ready, the next battle was to fight with the supernatural, maybe they would pay a lot of casualties, but even then they had to fight, because these production bases were already everyone's hope, if someone destroyed the hope, they really deserved to die.
But now, everyone saw that the stranger who appeared in the production base turned out to be an old acquaintance, so they relaxed.
