406. It's worse than losing money
It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.
After enjoying the beauty of food, you can no longer accept nutrients that have no texture and a single taste.
This time, the sense of crisis caused by the Zerg caused everyone to snap up the crops on the market, and in the past, when the Zerg invaded, there was no such crazy situation.
At most, everyone can stock up on nutrients or medicines, and those crops on the market can be mobilized and supplied to the military department.
But now it's different, people are used to eating fresh food, and they buy all the crops on the market, so there are no supplies to mobilize.
This is also why the supplies of the military department are also a little tight.
In order to prepare for battle, they need to concentrate their forces more than ever before, and they need to gather more people, and the more people they have, the more they spend.
Even if you don't count other expenses, you always have to eat and drink, right?
To ensure that the Space Marines can always be in combat mode, they have to eat a lot of food every day, sometimes even with a higher energy index, so as to ensure the energy supply in their bodies.
However, with the undecided movements of the Zerg, they are unable to make decisions on many things, and the only thing they can do to 'strengthen the guard' is to consume their own supplies in vain.
The planting cycle of crops is very long, but they are consumed quickly, and when the supply cannot keep up, the Zerg will attack again, and the human race will only have the possibility of failure.
So now it's either time to find the whereabouts of the Zerg quickly, and then directly annihilate the other party in one fell swoop.
Either they hurry up and find a way to make the yield of crops keep up with everyone's consumption rate, so that they are not afraid of the Zerg engaging in this war of attrition.
But whether it is the former or the latter, the military department must now make some action as soon as possible, and must not sit idly by.
Prior to this, the military department, which had been suffering from a shortage of fresh fruits and vegetables, and had no place to buy them, suddenly received more than 2 million catties of fruits and vegetables from Su Luo.
Although this is certainly not enough for all the Space Marines to eat, but because the vegetables and fruits provided by Su Luo are of excellent quality, and the most important thing is that the energy index is not low, the lowest batch of fruits has an energy index of more than ninety, and even vegetables that would not have a particularly high amount of energy have an energy index that basically exceeds the minimum requirements of military supplies.
Therefore, although the actual figure is two million catties, the effect that can be achieved far exceeds this number.
After all, the Space Marines eat these foods to absorb the energy inside, and if the more energy in the crop, the less they need to eat.
Of course, Su Luo's batch of vegetables and fruits were naturally not given to the military department for free, but because the price she offered was not the price corresponding to the actual crop grade, but the price of qualified products, it was actually no different from giving it away for free.
If the price is normal, these two million catties of vegetables and fruits should be able to increase Su Luo's small treasury by more than half, from 40 billion to 60 billion.
But because she took the initiative to lower the price, she actually didn't even receive 10 billion, only 8 billion.
But it doesn't matter, anyway, if there is a real fight, most of this batch of crops will not be saved, or she wants to move away, but she can't do it, so she can only keep it and be contaminated.
And she didn't want to put it in the store to sell it...... Let the second-class dealers make money, this is even more uncomfortable than making Su Luo lose money!
So supporting the military department is her best choice.
This is also just a good way to alleviate some of the stiff relationship with the military department before...... It's not that exaggerated to say that it was stiff, because the only ones who really had a conflict with Su Luo were the second, third, and tenth legions.
And she has been maintaining a very friendly relationship with the other seven legions for half a year.
If you don't talk about the three legions, the relationship that Su Luo maintains now is already very good.
But the reason why there is such a relationship, in addition to the credit of the white sweet radishes that will inevitably be delivered every month, the Yishuo strawberries that Su Luo began to sell to the military department a long time ago also occupy a large part.
Like the Adepts, their abilities will also increase...... The higher their ability, the stronger their strength, and the more they can spawn or produce more.
And the extra part of the strawberry essence ability improvement was basically sent to the military headquarters by Su Luo.
Although the Isho strawberries are still sold once a month, the total amount has not increased, and even occasionally decreased.
……
……
It has been two days since Su Luo sent his two million catties of crops to the military headquarters.
In addition to this batch of two million catties of ordinary crops, Su Luo learned about the current situation of the military department and received 'requests for help' from all sides, so for the first time, he asked his elves to take the initiative to grow crops.
As expected, all the elves agreed, because they were willing to do anything for their masters, not to mention that these things were just a piece of cake for them.
From the beginning, they could only naturally produce less than 70 catties of Ishuo strawberries a month, but after their ability was improved, they can now naturally produce 120 catties of Ishuo strawberries a month.
This may seem like a lot, but it's not enough compared to what they actively generate.
In the case of strawberry essence taking the initiative to produce, in just one day, Su Luo filled ten large boxes, all of which were Yishuo strawberries.
After a little weighing, Su Luo was startled by the number displayed on the machine - there were 1,100 catties of Yishuo strawberries in these ten large boxes.
Although it doesn't look like much, compared to the original monthly output of only 120 catties, 1,100 catties is close to the natural output of strawberry essence in a year, but now they only take one day...... No, only three hours to be exact.
The rest of the time is spent in the harvest and packing of strawberries with iron eggs.
Because the Isho strawberry is the fruit of the strawberry essence body, they get their own body out, and in order to better promote the Isho strawberry, they return to the body that they haven't returned to for a long time.
The seven elves suddenly disappeared, and the originally lively place seemed to be a lot empty.
Now that the birth is over, Su Luo can't see them, so he doesn't know much about their situation, and can only understand through words.
"Are you all right? Does spawning so many at once affect you? Su Luo touched the strawberry vine, but before her hand touched the strawberry vine, these emerald green rattans took the initiative and affectionately wrapped around her hand.
The white hand is wrapped with rattan, so smooth and translucent in color that if you don't pay attention to it, you may even think that it is a pair of jade bracelets that look like a chain.
