Chapter 68: Food

After walking a long way along the path, he saw that people were constantly coming down from the upper passage carrying bags of feed, and there were several entrances that came down, and when he saw that there was nothing to see, Jiang Yang proposed to go up to see how the insects were made into food.

Walking to the ground, Jiang Yang took a few deep breaths, and felt a lot better, mainly because there were too many insects below, and if someone with a dense phobia went down, it was estimated that he would faint soon.

Meng De suggested that he should first take a look at how the feed was produced, and only after Jiang Yang stared at him fiercely for a while did he react, and hurriedly took Jiang Yang to see how the food was made.

If you can't react, I'm afraid I really want to experience the feeling of Palm Hu Mengde, Jiang Yang thought silently.

In a huge factory, Jiang Yang saw the machines that produced grain, a total of five machines roared, and Jiang Yang found that these five machines had their own functions.

The first machine powdered the grass and trees that were stuffed into it.

The second machine stuffed the insect carcasses that had been processed in advance and ground them into a slurry of insect flesh, which was quite crisp, at least there were no obvious insect shells in it.

The third machine was the most huge, with two pipes connecting the first and second machines, mixing grass powder and insect mud together for frantic stirring, and the workers next to him sprinkled handfuls of lime-like powder from time to time, Jiang Yang asked and learned that it was rock powder with a lot of salt excavated from deep underground.

The fourth machine was a large dryer, and the mixture of grass and mud that was still damp entered the machine and baked it a little before it followed the pipes into the fifth machine behind.

The fifth machine is a machine similar to a large molding machine, the incoming mixture is formed from the end of the machine after its internal processing, and the square strips extend from the end, which are cut off one by one by the mechanical cutter at the rear, and many workers in the rear put the cut squares into the wooden shelves, and the shelves are carried away after they are full, and the empty shelves are moved to continue.

When Jiang Yang saw these gray-green squares, he felt that it was different from the color he had changed at the material exchange office before, and it was black at that time.

"Is this the food that everyone in the gathering place eats?" Jiang Yang picked up a piece of grain and asked.

"Uh... Back to my lord, this is what the city guards and above eat. ”

Jiang Yang looked at Meng De with puzzled eyes.

"The ordinary pariahs eat a different kind of food, different colors from these."

Meng De hurriedly said again.

"To be specific, the more detailed the better, and you can't hide anything!" Seeing this, Jiang Yang stared at Meng De and said in a deep voice.

Seeing that Jiang Yang was firmly staring at him, Meng De was also a little nervous, and said with a light sigh.

"The production process is the same, there is a black hill not far from the north outside the city, and the black soil inside it has been eaten by many people to satisfy their hunger when there was a great shortage of food a long time ago, so it has been confirmed that it is edible, and now those people eat black grain blocks made of mostly black soil and small half insect meat."

"With your virtue, you are still half a worm, I'm afraid it's a small half grass!" Jiang Yang said disdainfully at Meng De.

"My lord, this food is given to those untouchables for free every day, which is a huge burden, so it can only be like this."

"Let's go, change to a cleaner place, I'm going to ask something." Jiang Yang didn't want to dwell on this matter, and he couldn't change the past, besides, it didn't affect his next plans and arrangements.

"Please come with me, sir." Meng De stretched out his hand and strode up.

The two of them walked for a while, and came to a tall stone house near the edge of the city wall, and saw that the interior furnishings should be the place where the management of the place was working.

Jiang Yang sat down on the main seat with Meng De's guidance, and saw Meng De standing in front of him and bowing his head waiting for a question, Jiang Yang did not hesitate and asked directly.

"Is there a specific count of how many people are there in this city? Including you and the city guards! ”

"There was a statistic the year before last, if you add us and the city guards, there are about 96,000 people."

"Next, you arrange someone to check again, to find out how many people there are in total, and try to do a good job."

"Yes."

"If this insect is raised on a larger scale, can it meet the needs of the entire colony?"

"Lord Hui, at present, these raised underground can only meet the needs of more than 10,000 people after being made into grain blocks, if you want to meet the needs of 100,000 people, I am afraid that it will not be able to achieve it for a while."

"What's so hard to scale up tenfold? I can get the whole gathering to do that! ”

"My lord, although this insect is easy to feed, it still has a certain demand for the environment and temperature, and it can only grow best in a warm place underground, and there are not many workers who are good at raising insects, so it is not good to rashly expand the scale ten times."

"If the gathering place is fully supportive, how much can it be expanded?"

"Back to my lord, about three times is the limit!"

"It's not enough, I will arrange for the hunting team, the Zhu family, and the Wu family to fully assist you, and you will expand the scale to five times within three months!"

Jiang Yang stared at Meng De, and his eyes signaled that he could not refuse.

Meng De swallowed his saliva, and finally bowed down.

"I will live up to your trust, and I ask you to send a team of hunting team members to assist me for a long time, so that I can have some confidence to expand the size of five times in three months."

"Today, the killing party will come to you, and if they don't cooperate with this, they can kill them directly! I'll take care of that. ”

"Thank you, sir!"

"Also, from this day onwards, it is forbidden to produce two more kinds of grain, but only one for everyone to eat, and the same will be true in the future."

"My lord, will this cause a lot of people to be dissatisfied?"

"You're right, the city guards and the hunting team need to risk their lives, so let these people continue to eat well, everyone else eats the same, and I will let the hunting team carry out this later."

"Thisβ€”" Meng De looked embarrassed.

Jiang Yang didn't bother to pay attention to it anymore, and left directly, and after returning to the RV, he set up a route for him to drive back, and told Lu Shengtai to arrange for a team of hunting team members to go to Meng De, and said that these people would be responsible for the future.

It was already afternoon after this trip, Jiang Yang thought about it and seemed to have nothing to do, so let's just go home early, after all, I haven't been back for two days.

Disliked that the RV was driving too slowly, Jiang Yang grabbed the steering wheel and went straight to his manor.

With a bang, the RV crossed the gate and stopped steadily in the yard, Jiang Yang jumped out of the door and went straight to the main house, and entered the gate.

Mingzhu stepped forward, bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "My lord, the Wu family sent a maid to the adult in the morning, and she has been washed and waited for the adult in the bedroom." ”

I'm blanching! Didn't you say that you brought tea and poured water? Mingzhu, you can't do anything! What are you doing when you wash them up and send them to my bedroom! What a ruin of my reputation!

Originally, I planned to let her serve you as a maid, but it's good for you to make people like you as a maid on your own initiative, Mingzhu, you are confused! There are so many sororities competing with you!

Jiang Yang felt a little hated that iron could not become steel, but it was not good to lose his temper with the delicate pearl, so he could only hate and turn around and enter the master bedroom.

When he was about to step into the door of the master bedroom, Jiang Yang suddenly thought of something, and retracted his steps and turned to look at Mingzhu.

"By the way, Mingzhu, have you asked her how her talent is?"

"Ahh My lord, the slave maid has not had time to ask about this, and please review it first, if the sister's talent can not satisfy the adult, the slave and the maid will teach and teach each other wholeheartedly in the future. ”

Mingzhu replied with a little surprise.

Jiang Yang no longer hesitated, and walked directly into the door, as for closing the door or something! Your own home, all your own people, what kind of door to close! Besides, when the matter is critical, the Mingzhu and the others can also analyze the information according to the voice, and then decide whether to join the battlefield together, so it is impossible to close the door.

A slender and not plump shadow appeared in front of Jiang Yang's eyes, because he was sitting on the edge of the bed, Jiang Yang could only see half of his smooth and fair face, just seeing this, Jiang Yang felt content, Brother Tai! I'm sorry, if such a woman asks her to serve others, it will be too unbearable! Brother Tai, don't worry, I'm just eating and wiping it clean, and I will never be constrained by the Wu family because of this!

Hearing Jiang Yang's footsteps, the woman stood up and faced Jiang Yang, glanced at Jiang Yang, and then lowered her cheeks and lowered her head, and her gestures were full of infinite style.

"Slave maid Wu Youniang, I've seen adults." The crisp and sweet voice echoed in Jiang Yang's ears, causing ripples in Jiang Yang's heart.

There is no need to reminisce about this situation, just swallow it in one bite and let it become a part of yourself is the only reliable way.

Jiang Yang only felt that his eyes had shot out of fire, and his nasal cavity had also spewed out boiling hot air, at this moment, how could he care about anything else!

Wave up! Sound down!

Wave up! Again!

......

Time really flies, and in the blink of an eye, a new day is coming, pushing away the several peaks that are pressing on his body, Jiang Yang jumped up, didn't look at the seven sleeping figures, and came to the house to wash up after putting on his equipment, I want to find something to do today, we are men who want to do big things, and the love of children will only make the hero's road short.

I brewed a pot of green tea in the yard, slowly poured myself to drink, the green tea brewed, the color is clear and flawless, the entrance is sweet and rich at the beginning, and there is bitterness after swallowing, which will indeed make people have an endless aftertaste, even if the aftertaste is bitter! Don't you see many people who fall in love with green tea just because of the bitterness after the sweetness!

This tea tasting is almost an hour, and Jiang Yang also understands why those tea lovers in his previous life often taste tea for half a day and half a day, and some will even taste it all night because the tea is too good!

Driving the RV, he went straight to the killing team's station, and today Jiang Yang was going to go there first to see if there was anything he needed to do.

After parking the car, Jiang Yang directly entered the hall of the hunting team's fortress, and after entering, he saw that Lu Shengtai was checking the things on the ground with a few people from the Wu family, and looked at it intently, they were all high-powered weapons such as big snipers, and yesterday he asked them to send all these weapons to the hunting team, it seemed that their movements were quite fast, and in an instant, Jiang Yang's good impression of several people from the Wu family, especially that Wu Lao, rose to the level of Zhu Zhen and Zhu Sanhu.

Hearing Jiang Yang's footsteps, several people turned around and bowed lightly to Jiang Yang, Jiang Yang also smiled and nodded lightly in response, but unfortunately, with masks, it is estimated that they can't see Jiang Yang's smile.

"Big brother, you came just in time, a few members of the Wu family just sent these weapons over."

"Well, I'll take a look."

Jiang Yang stepped forward, lifted a big sniper and looked at it, and after looking at it, he didn't find anything special, just that the gun was large and thick.

Originally, Jiang Yang also wanted to collect a handful to play, but after using it, he found that it was too troublesome to use, and it was very cumbersome to just load bullets, and after asking Xiaoqing, he learned that this kind of weapon that was not purchased by the Meritorious Mall could only be used in this world, and if you wanted to bring it out of this world, you would need to spend additional merit currency to regularize it in order to withstand the power of teleportation when leaving, plus this thing is really not as good as the fireball technique, Jiang Yang does not lack this kind of firepower output, so simply don't want it, and put it in the storage space to take up space.

Those two M88 hand cannons are actually not of much significance to Jiang Yang strictly speaking, but Jiang Yang uses them for enjoyment and pretending, and it is estimated that not many people will use it without feeling distressed at all.

"Brother Tai, I'll leave these to you, you can use it however you want, as long as you don't pose a threat to you and me in the future." Jiang Yang said casually to Lu Shengtai.

"Okay, I'll arrange it, even if this thing is done, you should go back and go back." Lu Shengtai said to the Wu family.

"Yes." Several people clenched their fists slightly and bowed to leave.

Jiang Yang thought about it, but still felt that it was better for him to ask something.

"Wait a minute."

Several members of the Wu family turned to look at Jiang Yang, waiting to see what Jiang Yang had to say.

"That old Wu, I've known each other once, and I don't know what your name is!"

"Lord Xie raises love, and the old man is called Wu Shangui." Wu Lao arched his hand.

I'm blanching! Jiang Yang felt that it was not good again in an instant! There is Pan Feng in front! And then there is Mende! This TM has a round second husband! Jiang Yang felt that he would never easily ask for someone's name in the future.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yang looked at the legend.

"Dare to ask what these last two words are?"

"Back to my lord, the mountain is the mountain of the mountain, and the precious is precious, dare to ask the adult, is there anything wrong?" Wu Lao asked with some apprehension.

Jiang Yang breathed a sigh of relief, it's okay, it's just a homophone, this is normal, and now he feels much more comfortable.

"It's okay, it's good, Old Wu, you should be busy when you go back."

"Yes, I'll retire." A few people turned and left.

Jiang Yang turned around, but found that Brother Tai was staring at him with a resentful expression, and he saw that he was a little weak.

"Why is the eldest brother suddenly so polite to these people? Could it be that woman so stunning? Lu Shengtai said quietly.

"How come, it's just a woman, the reason why I'm polite to them is because they are obedient, and they sent weapons yesterday and sent them today, which is a very good thing for us to accept and pack the entire gathering place, with their help, it will make us a lot easier!" Jiang Yang explained awe-inspiringly.

"It's good that the eldest brother understands it himself, so what is the eldest brother going to do next?" Lu Shengtai no longer dwelled on that topic, and turned to get down to business.

"I have made arrangements for the grain base yesterday, and the grain output will gradually increase in the next three months, and after three months, basically everyone will be able to eat normally, and after a few months of physical care, I can bring the first batch of people back to the advance base."

"This method works, that is, the eldest brother is a little too concerned about the lives of these natives, if I want to say that I will bring a batch back first, let's go through the route first, and then take a large group of people and horses to walk in the wilderness, but it is very dangerous, it is very easy to attract a large number of mutant beasts, I think, it is the most important thing to find a safe route first."

"Brother Tai! You can't be wrong about that, but I want to correct two of them.

This first point, it makes sense to cherish the life of every native, one person represents 3.1 meritorious service and 3000 rule copper coins, I see Brother Tai, you feel sorry for the 0.1 meritorious M88 hand cannon bullet, why don't you feel sorry for the indigenous people worth at least 31 bullets!

This second point, the issue of safe routes, I will personally lead the team at that time, no matter how many mutant beasts there are, it will only be for the natives to eat, and it will not be the so-called danger.

Brother Tai, do you understand? ”

Jiang Yang patted the sturdy Tai brother on the shoulder and said.

"Understood, since the strength of the eldest brother is enough to run rampant in the wilderness, it is naturally the most important thing to bring back more natives, okay, according to the eldest brother's plan."

"Well, I have asked Meng De to start counting the population of this gathering place, this time you must bring as many people back to the base as possible, during this period, you arrange for the city guards to also patrol the city more, put an end to all crimes, and must not easily kill people again."

"I'm blanching! I understand, I instantly feel that these natives are so valuable! Without further ado, I'll arrange it. ”

Lu Shengtai turned around and ran.

"Don't worry! There is another thing that can be done together, from tomorrow, the scavengers will no longer be allowed to go out of the city, tell them that the gathering place will no longer let people starve, these scavengers are the most likely to die in the wild, and the current situation is that dying is a meritorious loss! ”

"Big brother, don't worry, I will arrange for the city guards to handle this matter!" Lu Shengtai turned around and left again, this time Jiang Yang didn't stop him again, but he didn't know if he went to find Meng De or Wu Shangui.

Jiang Yang walked around the hall, feeling that he couldn't find anything to do again, it was really uncomfortable! This feels less fulfilling than the 996 in the previous life!

No wonder those rich people in the previous life run around the world every day, saying that they are busy, but in fact, they are idle and boring to have fun everywhere, Jiang Yang now feels the depression of boredom, but it is a pity that this world is an end of the world, there is no fun at all, except for the maid at home can accompany him to play poker, he can no longer find other entertainment, the key is that every time he plays poker, he is not happy!

That's it! It's still early in the morning, and everything is arranged, how can I survive this long day!
