After a long pause, Tang Zhonghua finally came to his senses and quickly instructed his subordinates:

"Hurry up and inform the residents, especially those children, to line up at the entrance of the base to welcome the experts from Jingbei!"

"Okay, Base Commander!"

The entire base suddenly became busy.

Residents queuing in the supermarket were also called away and formed a welcoming formation.

We even rehearsed it several times under the leadership of the base commander.

Everything is ready, just waiting for people to come.

However, after rehearsing for so long, in the end it was all in vain.

The experts from Jingbei came by helicopter and landed directly on the roof of a building in the base.

Watching the helicopters flying overhead, Tang Zhonghua waved his hands and said, "Everyone, keep in formation and follow me!"

Chen Wei, wearing a uniform, got off the plane. He broke out in sweat after just a few steps.

Coming downstairs, he shook hands with the base commander and said, "Hello, my name is Chen Wei. It's so hot now, so please don't let the residents stay outside.

We came here this time to take a look at your farmland."

Tang Zhonghua nodded immediately: "Okay, I'll take you there."

The residents who were queuing also dispersed on the spot, and everyone ran towards the supermarket in groups.

No matter how hot it is, we must not stop stockpiling supplies!

Because of their active cooperation just now, each of the children received a gold necklace.

Cheng Jing and Cheng Yuan applied for a points card at the checkout counter and exchanged the gold necklace for a total of 300 points.

Although it’s not much, it’s better than nothing.

After shopping in the supermarket, the brother and sister's shopping carts were empty.

I have too few points and don’t know what to buy.

Later, the shopping guide Bear recommended to them, "This new product in the supermarket is a cooling mist fan. It is very cost-effective. It is solar-powered and can cool, humidify, and purify the air.

Only 300 points are needed for one!

With it, we can buy much less other cooling supplies."

Some of the extra items on the display stand look extremely ugly, but they are really useful.

Of course, whether you can come across a useful artifact depends on luck.

Cheng Jing and his sister were very lucky and bought the last cooling spray fan.

With the remaining 300 points, they took two loaves of bread, two eight-treasure porridges and two bear biscuits.

Cheng Yuan tilted her head and smiled brightly, "Thank you, Little Bear."

The shopping guide Bear raised his head and smiled back, "You're welcome, this is what I should do!"

On the other side, Chen Wei led seven or eight staff members to test the soil in the fields.

Half an hour later, the results they obtained were exactly the same as those from the system.

Chen Wei is a core member of the institute. When he goes out on missions, he also carries a special communicator with him.

After discussing with Jingbei for a few minutes, Chen Wei turned and walked over, his expression very serious:

"Director Tang, your farmland has been requisitioned by Jingbei, and you will be compensated with materials later.

Commander Xu personally guaranteed that even if crops are not grown, the residents of your base will not lack food."

Tang Zhonghua never thought that such a good thing would happen!

Does this mean that they are living a good life by eating "national grain" relying on the land under their feet?

After receiving attention from Jingbei, it rose several levels from an unknown small base.

"Okay, if there's anything you need our cooperation for, just let me know."

In this kind of weather, it is not feasible to cultivate medicinal herbs directly in the open air.

Therefore, a batch of materials for building greenhouses were transported from Beijing North, and the labor was provided directly by the Baoshui base.

Not only did the residents receive compensation for helping to build the greenhouse, but they also received daily “wages”, which consisted of water, food and other supplies.

The residents who were originally so poor that they had to eat dirt suddenly became rich, and each of them had a smile on their face.

During the few days that the Baoshui base was open, Jiang He spent much less time in the supermarket than usual.

The main reason is that she has a lot of free time and there are not many customers coming to the supermarket to shop. She only needs to spend some time every day to stock the shelves with goods at the major supply stations.

Whenever he was bored, Jiang He would go into the field to check the progress of the greenhouse construction.

Every time Chen Wei saw her, he felt like he was being supervised and couldn't help but want to report the situation to her.

"Boss Jiang, the base is fully staffed. The construction process yesterday and today went very smoothly. It is estimated that it will be completed in three days."

Jiang He put his hands behind his back and said, "Very good, very good, keep it up."

She glanced at Guan Kang not far away and suddenly remembered something.

"Teacher Chen, since the development of the injection, does your institute have any new projects recently?"

Chen Wei looked around and made sure there was no one around, then he lowered his voice:

"At present, the main task of our institute is to monitor the effects of injections on the human body and see if there is anything that can be improved.

Our next project will probably be studying human reproduction.”

Speaking of this, Chen Wei became more talkative, "Humanity has no offspring, and simply changing our physique with injections is not enough.

According to official statistics from Beijing North, the number of newborns in major official bases in the past year did not exceed double digits.

This is an extremely terrifying thing. If no intervention is made, even if the base can survive the natural disaster and fight against the mutant beasts, without new forces, humanity and human civilization will eventually perish."

Hearing this, Jiang He's eyes lit up. "Teacher Chen, you are truly my soulmate. Your words really hit the nail on the head!"

Chen Wei was very excited, "Boss Jiang, you should just call me Lao Chen. The word "teacher" is really not worthy of me.

Thanks to your help, we were able to successfully develop the injection in such a short time."

Jiang He didn't hesitate at all and immediately changed the subject: "Old Chen, can you guys research artificial womb technology similar to that used in the interstellar era, so that babies can be conceived without women having to suffer?"

The emergence of injectables has undoubtedly led mankind to another new development path.

It also seems possible that other areas of technology will be improved.

Chen Wei raised the corner of his lips slightly, "The institute did have this proposal, and we are also interested in conducting in-depth research in this area.

However, there are currently many obstacles, and this project is dozens of times more difficult than the research on injectables.”

Jiang He gave him a thumbs-up. "Everything is difficult at the beginning. I believe you will be able to overcome all difficulties and once again develop technology that will benefit mankind."

Injectables are imminent, but this is not the case. Even if it takes ten or thirty years to be successfully developed, there is still time.

Chen Wei smiled sheepishly, "Boss Jiang, every time we felt frustrated before, it was your comfort and encouragement that gave us strength.

This time is no different, we will definitely work hard.”
