Although Gu Xi took the initiative to avoid it, Wei Heng obviously didn't mind. He started chatting with the people in the group in front of Gu Xi.
Although the instinct of planting has long been engraved in the genes of flower growers, Wei Heng is a novice after all. After humbly asking for advice from the "old farmers" in the group, he raised his head and looked at Gu Xi: "How about,
Let’s just choose sweet potatoes…”
Sweet potatoes have high yields and are durable in storage. They can be used as staple food and can be made into many snacks with different flavors. Sweet potato leaves can also be eaten as vegetables. Even sweet potato vines can be used to feed poultry and livestock. After drying,
It can also be used as firewood.
"...Moreover, it is said that there is a saying before the end of the world that eating sweet potato leaves regularly can prevent cancer." Wei Heng held up his chin and asked Gu Xi for his opinion.
Gu Xi had no objection.
Just now, Wei Heng was chatting with people in the group using voice chat. She listened quietly for a while and got some useful information.
Although she has never farmed and does not understand those crops, her use of wood-type abilities can be said to be at the pinnacle and unmatched by anyone.
Gu Xi is confident that as long as she is given a living seed, she can grow it of any variety!
But after planting, can it be eaten? Gu Xi cannot guarantee it.
In this era of total plant mutation, plants have also become strange and strange.
Although Gu Xi has some ideas in mind, whether they can succeed or not will have to be tested.
While submitting the information, Wei Heng asked Gu Xi: "Besides sweet potatoes, do you have anything else you want to grow? What about cabbages and radishes?"
Although the seeds sent from the base are generally similar, they are all seeds with a relatively low coefficient of variation that have been carefully selected by professionals.
However, the coefficient of variation of plants is not static and will be affected by the environment at any time.
The longer the growth cycle of crops, the higher the uncontrollability of this variation.
Therefore, Wei Heng, like most people, prefers to plant crops with short growth cycles.
"Anything is fine." Gu Xi didn't choose, but if possible, she would like to grow some fruits.
From the chat between Wei Heng and the pioneers in the group, Gu Xi learned that fruit is now a very rare item and cannot be bought outside.
Ordinary people who want to eat some fruit can only go to the wild to try their luck and see if they can find some fruits with a relatively low coefficient of variation...
Gu Xi has a little-known hobby, that is, she especially likes to eat fruits. So in the past, the most indispensable thing in her space was various fruits... and fruit seeds.
But now there's something wrong with her superpower, she's pitifully weak, only at level three at most, and even the space she created in the past is gone.
If she wants to open up space again, she must at least wait until her power returns to level seven or above.
She also doesn’t know if the materials she collected before can be recovered after the space is reopened?
Wei Heng was very considerate and turned the light screen in front of her to let her look carefully before choosing.
But after Gu Xi read it, he regretfully discovered that none of the seeds distributed by the base were fruit.
Finally, she reluctantly chose a tomato.
…
Early the next morning, the helicopters belonging to the central base flew away.
In the next two days, the camp was always peaceful, and no malignant changes occurred. But Wei Heng told her that people from the army had actually arrived.
The area has been rigorously screened again and again by the military. Now the danger has basically been eliminated, and the camp will be unsealed soon.
That night, the supplies for Nancheng Base finally arrived.
Wei Heng immediately sent her personal terminal over and tried his best to show off his aesthetics: "How do you like it? I specially selected this for you, doesn't it look good?"
Gu Xi looked at the pink and childlike watch in front of her and fell silent: "..."
Wei Heng realized later that something was wrong. He scratched his head and said hesitantly: "Gu Xi, don't you like it?" That shouldn't be the case. Didn't Uncle Zhou say that his niece likes this one the best?
The one with a pink cat head?
"...Thank you." Gu Xi was silent for a while, then said with a straight face: "I like it very much."
Then, Wei Heng was pushed out of the house with a puzzled expression.
Gu Xi closed the door and lowered her head slightly. After a while, she opened her personal terminal.
She needs to understand the world thirty years from now as soon as possible.
Gu Xi fiddled with it for a while and found that this thing looked like the same thing, but in fact, it was not a real intelligent brain system.
At least, it is very different from the intelligent brain system proposed by Dr. Qi thirty years ago. Many of the originally envisioned functions have not been realized...
After thinking about it, she clicked on the search bar, but this kind of personal terminal is a basic model specially issued by the base for pioneers. Many functions are not open to permissions, and the information that can be found is also very limited, and most of them are related to
Planting related...
Gu Xi stared at the screen for a long time, then decisively exited the search bar, opened the official app that came with the terminal, and then clicked on the forum section inside...
At this moment, a small box suddenly popped up on the lower right side of the light screen - it was a message from Wei Heng to add forum friends.
Gu Xi frowned slightly, feeling a little strange. She did not register a forum account, but only logged in as a visitor. How did Wei Heng find her so accurately?
Gu Xi quickly browsed the news on the forum, approved Wei Heng's friend application, and asked him sincerely about this issue.
Pioneer Xiao Wei: Select a nearby person and view the ID number.
Gu Xi was not stupid and understood instantly.
The long string of numbers following her tourist identity, the first few digits should represent the area, the middle digits should be the camp number, and the last long string of digits should be
The time when you first logged into the forum.
Their camp has just been established, and there are not many members. She is probably the only one who got a personal terminal today...
No wonder Wei Heng came to find her as soon as she came online.
After browsing the forum all night, Gu Xi finally had a rough understanding of the world thirty years from now.
Early the next morning, as soon as she washed her face with cold water, Wei Heng came over excitedly with a bowl of dark vegetable paste: "Gu Xi, the camp will be unsealed tomorrow, you..."
Wei Heng was halfway through talking when he suddenly felt something was wrong.
He raised his head and looked at Gu Xi seriously, "You don't seem to be surprised at all..."
Gu Xi raised his hand and said calmly: "At five o'clock in the morning, the camp announced the unblocking news on the forum..."
Wei Heng frowned slightly and looked around her up and down: "Gu Xi, did you not sleep all night?" I really can't tell, this is an Internet addicted girl?
Internet addicted girl Gu Xiaoxi: No, I just want to know more about the world.
An hour later, with the newly obtained land contract in hand, Gu Xi followed Wei Heng to the agricultural technology station in the camp to receive crop seeds and farming machinery.
When they arrived, there were already many people lined up in front of the agricultural technology station.
The two of them slowly followed the team. Wei Heng, who was walking in front, suddenly thought of something. He paused and turned around and said, "Gu Xi, you just came out of the ruins. There shouldn't be any money in your account, right? We have to
Let’s apply for a loan first…”
Gu Xi frowned: "Aren't those seeds distributed for free by the base?" She had seen news about this on the official forum last night.
Wei Heng explained: "Although the seeds are distributed free of charge by the base, the number and types of free seeds that everyone can receive are stipulated. Didn't I help you pick a few more types that day..."
Gu Xi: "?"
For some reason, she suddenly had a bad feeling.
Wei Heng glanced at her and said: "Originally, I thought the balance in my account should be enough..."
"But this is not my first time to open up wasteland and farm. I have no experience, so when I was selecting seeds that day, I accidentally picked a few more..." Wei Heng's voice became lower and lower.
To be honest, this was the first time he had to worry about money.
When he was in the special force, the state provided food and accommodation, and he had no place to spend money. The subsidies were all sent to the families of his deceased comrades.
Half a year ago, after that incident, he voluntarily left the special service team, but most of his retirement money was spent on superpower inhibitors...
So much so that I am a little short of money now.
Fortunately, the country is now vigorously supporting farming and planting. As long as you have a land contract, you can get a loan.
Moreover, Gu Xi is a newcomer who has just returned to the base from the ruins, and can enjoy three years of interest-free loans...
Wei Heng comforted her: "Gu Xi, you really don't have to worry about the money. After we grow the food, we can use the food to repay this part of the loan..."
After Gu Xi listened, she just asked him with a dull face: "So, in addition to the seeds distributed for free by the base, how much money is left?"
Wei Heng whispered a number.
Gu Xi: Destroy it, no more tomatoes! This chapter has been completed!
