Chapter 119 Nothing to be afraid of
Under the eager gaze of the survivors of the base, the convoy drove out of the south gate of Ziyang City in a mighty manner.
A hundred meters outside the base is a buffer defense zone. After passing through the last checkpoint guarded by a sentry, the group once again entered the devastated Maple City area.
In the leading jeep, He Yang was driving, Ai Wanxin was sitting in the passenger seat, and Yin Yanhan and Pei Junlin were sitting in the back seat.
The area south of Zi Yang City is the base's priority area for recovery. Every day, several sentinel teams will clear out the zombies and advance the front line. After countless battles, both large and small, this area is now covered in broken walls and ruins.
He Yang glanced at the car navigation system and said with a smile, "Sweetheart, where is our destination? You haven't told me yet."
"Captain He, you don't have to worry about this. Just drive along the road and I'll tell you when it's time to turn."
Ai Wan said without looking away.
"It seems that I still haven't gained my sweetheart's trust." He Yang raised the corners of his lips and said with regret.
No, you didn't even get back to your seat.
Ai Wanxin ignored his seemingly real performance, closed her eyes and pretended to sleep before entering the space.
The mutant wolf king who was playing catching the frisbee with the system immediately braked, stood still, shook his mane, walked gracefully to her side and lay down.
Ai Wanxin touched the wolf king's ear and found it felt good, so she touched it again.
"Are you a little bored?" she asked. "I'll find you a companion later."
While unconsciously playing with the wolf king's ears, Ai Wanxin looked down at the supplies in the space.
Last time the system said that one earth-type crystal core can convert 1 square meters of land, and one acre of land requires less than 100 crystal cores.
The rice seeds she bought have a theoretical yield of 800 kilograms per mu, the wheat has a theoretical yield of 500 kilograms per mu, the soybeans have a theoretical yield of 250 kilograms per mu, and the potatoes and sweet potatoes have a theoretical yield of 2500 kilograms per mu.
In other words, if she wanted to provide food to the base, potatoes and sweet potatoes would be the most cost-effective.
But for the first time, she couldn't not give away any rice or flour. This was a long-term business, and she couldn't narrow the path.
Ten vehicles came out this time, five of them took the food to the base and five to the territory. The food was now clear and she could use it to exchange for other resources.
But this is just the most basic staple food. Vegetables and fruits are more troublesome. She can't explain how to keep them fresh. And meat, she needs a lot of meat.
Ai Wanxin's brain was working at high speed. Suddenly, she had an idea and asked, "Xiao Ji, what would happen if the transformed soil was brought into reality?"
The system had been exhausted from playing with the Wolf King these past few days. It finally had some free time and was summoned by its master. It said obediently, "If you bring the converted soil into reality, it will be the same as in space. Crops will grow faster than using ordinary soil, but the half-life will be shorter."
In fact, by now, Ai Wanxin has already understood a little about the crystal core.
The crystal nucleus is similar to a high-energy collection.
And her space has the ability to convert and store this energy.
Although I don’t know what the principle is, we should make the best use of things, people, and land.
Ai Wanxin had a plan in mind.
She opened her eyes, glanced at the satellite navigation map, and ordered, "Turn right up to the ring road, Captain He."
Chao Feng was outside the car biting the zombies that sprang at the sound of the wind, his mouth full of corpse fluid. He Yang was driving while disdaining it through the mental connection, as he had been bored of driving for a long time.
Hearing Ai Wanxin's voice at this time, he couldn't help but start to make small talk: "Sweetheart, you don't want to tell me where the destination is. Are you afraid that I will send someone to empty the warehouse first?"
Ai Wanxin didn't say anything, He Yang only talked about one aspect.
You have to know that the warehouse she was talking about didn't exist at all. She was just planning to find an empty space to put a warehouse in the space, and then let them move back. If she told He Yang the destination in advance and they sent a scout to take a look, wouldn't she be at a loss?
And when she saw the car navigation, she remembered that since the satellite was still working, she couldn't even just bring out a warehouse, lest this guy compare the satellite photos before and after and find any clues.
She decided to take He Yang to the warehouse located in the old mining area in the western suburbs.
He Yang took Ai Wanxin's silence as a tacit agreement, and said unhappily, "Am I that kind of person in your heart?"
Pei Junlin leaned on the back of the driver's seat and said with a smile: "Captain He, you have to ask so clearly, aren't you the one who is uncomfortable?"
He Yang then asked, "Sweetheart, come to think of it, what kind of business does your company do? Why do I see that you have bought a lot of staple foods and side dishes?"
This guy wants to find out someone's background after just a few words, and he blames others for being on guard against him?
"Captain He, we have known each other for such a long time, and it is rare for us to have the opportunity to sit down and chat. It just so happens that I am particularly interested in you. By the way, when did you join the army?" Ai Wanxin changed the subject.
When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, fighting back is more effective than lying.
He Yang avoided answering questions about himself and only said, "We haven't known each other for very long, honey, less than a week."
"As far as I know, the Marine Corps does not have any troops stationed in Fengcheng. Why did Captain He appear in Fengcheng alone?" Ai Wanxin asked.
"Sweetheart, how do you know the military's movements? I think that the reason I appear alone in Fengcheng is because of the rare fate between us." He Yang said with a smile.
In the back row, Pei Junlin had a big smile on his face.
Such a disgusting guy is nothing to be afraid of, nothing to be afraid of.
Guided by military navigation, the convoy avoided the severely damaged roads and large-scale tides of zombies, and quickly drove across the Yingsheng Bridge and entered the western suburbs.
When the car drove into the warehouse area of the old mining area, He Yang took a sharp look at the environment of the warehouse area and said with a smile: "Sweetheart, your food company rented a warehouse in a place like this, the hygiene is worrying."
"It's not clean, but you won't get sick if you eat it." Ai Wanxin pushed open the car door and got out, looking around the entire warehouse area.
Half of the warehouses in the warehouse area were destroyed by the flood, and the scattered coal slag and silt made the ground dirty.
She pointed to a well-maintained warehouse not far away and said to He Yang, "This is it, Captain He, go move it."
He Yang asked curiously: "One?"
"Yes, I didn't say there was only one warehouse. A cunning rabbit has three burrows, Captain He."
He Yang waved his hand, and Captain Hao led the soldiers to cut the chain on the warehouse door, and a warehouse full of blue plastic barrels appeared in front of everyone.
Captain Hao was also a sentry. He lowered his shoulders, raised his elbows, shouted loudly, and moved one out of a 500-liter plastic barrel.
He Yang walked forward and opened the lid of the bucket, and asked in confusion, "Rice?"
"Isn't rice a food?" Ai Wanxin asked back.
"No, your company uses plastic barrels to store rice?" He Yang's head was full of question marks.
"Isn't this waterproof?" Ai Wanxin made up a story, "Our company is a little informal, but this bucket is also food grade. You have to return it to me later. I won't donate it."
"Okay." He Yang compromised, "Then are these all for the base?"
He asked, pointing to the full plastic barrels in the deep and wide warehouse.
