Chapter 57: Farmer in the End of the World

"I also saw tomatoes, purple cabbage, wait what is that? Strawberry seedlings, and grape vines!"

Miao Jun, the director of a private shelter who is well versed in agriculture, recognized many of the young vegetable and fruit seedlings in the photos, and was even more shocked than Wang Jianguo.

The existence of those things meant that Su Wu had already transcended the most basic needs of survival and food, and had the ability and leisure to pursue a higher level of luxury.

According to the time calculation, if the grapes in Su Wu Farm are ripe by the time, the doomsday outside will not be over yet.

The grapes in Su Wu's hand are probably worth as much as gold. There must be many wealthy refugees willing to spend a lot of money to buy them.

"Not only that, if you look carefully at the edge of the photo, there are tulips, blue star flowers, and houndstooth grass—"

"There are so many flowers. Are you planning to build a garden?"

A more discerning family member of a high-ranking official in a certain shelter showed up in the chat channel for the first time.

I couldn't help but utter a series of exclamation marks.

If fresh fruit is considered a luxury, then flowers are purely legendary species.

At least in Jianghe City, even the largest official shelter cannot cultivate these flowers that have almost no practical value.

It is very likely that Su Wu’s underground farm is the only place in the entire Jianghe City where flowers are grown on a large scale.

“That’s about as much lettuce as you can produce.”

"But when the cabbage, spinach, kale and so on grow, they will also be sold to the public."

"Tomatoes, green peppers, and fruits, etc., it depends. The production of these things is not large, and most of them must be kept for personal use."

Looking at the lively chat channel, Su Wu selectively answered a few questions that most people were concerned about.

It can be regarded as an advertisement for their own hydroponic farm.

And the effect of his action was very obvious.

The discussion in the chat channel became more heated, and many people began to pay attention to Su Wu.

The impression he had was that of a wealthy vegetable supplier.

“Such a large vegetable producing area.”

"I think you might as well change your name to Farmer."

"Life is better now than before the end of the world."

The heavy-armored knight, who had once traded with Su Wu, expressed envy that was hard to conceal in his tone.

Before the end of the world, he was also a wealthy rent collector, living a life that many people dream of.

But compared with Su Wu now, the difference is like the difference between ordinary people and him in the past.

He also dreamed of having an underground farm, but unfortunately, his current electricity supply was barely enough to keep his shelter running normally, let alone grow crops.

The lively discussion lasted for a long time.

And as more and more people see the message.

Some less harmonious voices suddenly emerged.

"Can I ask where your shelter is?"

"If I need it in the future, I plan to purchase it myself to save some shipping costs."

The address of Su Wu's refuge was no secret. He had revealed relevant information in casual conversations more than once.

Therefore, without waiting for Su Wu to react.

Someone in the chat channel answered this question.

Su Wu paused his typing and looked at the person asking the question and the person answering the question with a calm gaze.

In the end, nothing more was said.

surface.

The delivery process of the large truck lasted more than two hours.

Just as Su Wu had expected.

Because of the need for advance communication and coordination, the three transactions using drones were quite troublesome.

In addition, the K2 series agricultural drone malfunctioned during the delivery and had to return halfway.

As a result, the final time spent was about an hour later than expected.

The engineering robots in the manufacturing center have already completed the CNC machine tools, and even the 3D printers have been built to a small extent.

Completely ended the transaction with the shelters.

Su Wu hurried to the manufacturing center.

“Is this a CNC machine tool?”

Standing in front of a CNC machine tool that is five or six meters tall and occupies the area of ​​three entire rooms.

Su Wu sincerely felt his own insignificance.

He glanced at the manufacturing list.

In order to manufacture this huge mechanical equipment, the engineering robots consumed a total of about 60 tons of metal raw materials, including a large number of various rare metals. Almost half of the rare material inventory in the shelter was emptied.

“This is a bit of an over-utilization of resources.”

Su Wu frowned for a moment, but soon he was relieved. It doesn't matter if you use more.

The more materials you use, the less survival points you need to consume. The upgraded functions will also be more powerful.

Reach out and press on the metal casing of the CNC machine tool.

Lines of handwriting appeared in his field of vision.

"30 survival points are required."

This number is a little less than expected. However, there is only one upgrade direction, which is still CNC machine tools.

"upgrade."

Su Wu confirmed it in his heart.

A ball of white light began to seep into the interior of the CNC machine tool from the void.

Half a second later, everything returned to normal.

"A new intelligent terminal has been discovered."

"Are you allowing access?"

At this time, a prompt popped up on the tablet computer that Su Wu carried with him.

That was the inquiry sent by the artificial intelligence responsible for controlling the entire shelter after detecting a new uncontrolled device.

Su Wu clicked to confirm, authorizing the artificial intelligence to take over the CNC machine tool.

The tablet screen dimmed slightly, and then a new operating interface appeared.

“It has a lot of functions.”

“There seems to be almost no limit to how customizable the parts are.”

“The processing accuracy is at the micron level.”

"Production speed, um, let's test it——"

After fiddling with the operating interface of the CNC machine tool for a while, Su Wu asked a construction robot to feed the raw materials into the machine tool.

Then the CNC machine tool ran for more than ten minutes.

It began to spit out a pile of parts of different sizes. Then the engineering robot came forward and used these newly processed parts to assemble them.

Soon, a standard automatic rifle appeared in the hands of the engineering robot.

"It's much faster than an engineering robot rubbing its hands together."

"If we mass-produce uniform standard parts, it should be even faster."

"It's almost like a small universal industrial assembly line."

After several more tests, Su Wu was satisfied with the results delivered by the CNC machine tool and even felt a little surprised.

Even some parts that need to be forged through high-temperature heating can be completed well by this machine tool.

It can almost be said that there is no metal part that it cannot produce in the field above the micron level.
