Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...
Chapter 407 About Grain Seeds
Moreover, how did the other party manage to keep the information secret?
You have to know that the land in Su City is limited. He has so many guards under his command, but he has never heard of any large-scale purchase of food, nor has he found any wasteland being developed and planted.
I always feel that this batch of grain seemed to have appeared out of nowhere to solve Su City’s urgent needs.
Qin Yuncheng didn't think that the boss of Xichen Company was so capable as to store such a large amount of grain. Otherwise, how come after the earthquake, there was rain and snow, but the wheat grains were so dry that they were not affected at all.
But he couldn't think of any other reason. It couldn't be that Yuan Ruoxi had a change of heart and contributed all the food stored in the space.
Not to mention that he didn't believe in the other person's character, even if he was a noble person, he didn't have such great ability. As far as he knew, the space of the superpower was only 100 square meters, and it could only be used for storage.
After all, we arrived too late, and all the clues were destroyed by this group of people.
Alas, I don’t know why Li Sikai didn’t know how to protect the scene and conduct investigation in advance.
But he just thought about it in his mind, and he didn't dare to really pursue the truth. What if it was a kind-hearted patriot? Don't let him do something so unscrupulous that he won't dare to show up again.
Qin Yuncheng's thoughts turned over in a moment. He nodded and said to the team members, "Transport this batch of food to the secret warehouse at night and exchange it for an equal amount of reserve food."
The little soldier nodded and said, "Yes!"
Then he led his teammates to move the soybeans and rice piled in the warehouse onto the supply truck. After the truck was full, they drove towards a warehouse deep in the mountains.
Qin Yuncheng was also busy. Knowing that he would not get an answer, he stopped worrying about it. He took two deep breaths and walked into the warehouse to work with his teammates.
Although there is no need to re-bag the goods when moving to another location, it still takes a little longer to transport the goods from both ends.
Until dawn, one third had not been replaced.
Seeing that it was getting late, Qin Yuncheng stopped the action and asked people to move dozens of sacks of old grain to the small workshop of the guard team for processing.
This small workshop was originally built to deal with various emergencies. It not only has large processing equipment, but also some traditional stone mills, rice pounding machines, etc. Of course, there are also many small machines that use solar energy.
Fortunately, we have found solar-powered machines for grinding flour and pounding rice. They do not require any manpower and are extremely fast.
It didn't take long before several restaurants in East City received rice and grains delivered by the guards, and the chefs were all smiling happily.
As for South City, West City, and North City, they also need to send food, but the new food is discovered in their East City, so it will naturally be supplied first.
When Shen Yanming came back for lunch at noon, he found that the food was much better. The porridge, which was so thin that you could count the rice grains, became much thicker. Although it was not as good as white rice, it was already very good when he was fed by the guards.
However, after taking a bite, Shen Yanming frowned. This taste was really not very friendly.
Well, it’s not that it’s bad, but it doesn’t smell good and has a musty smell.
What Shen Yanming was sure of was that the porridge had not gone bad, so the problem was with the rice.
It seemed that, just as he thought, the guards had replaced the old grain. This was good, as the new grain could be used as reserve grain and would not deteriorate even if stored for three to five years.
However, Shen Yanming hoped that the escort team would discover the extraordinary nature of this batch of grain, and use this batch of wheat and rice as seeds in the subsequent cultivation, and promote it to the entire Su City.
But he just thought about it because he knew it was impossible.
It’s not that grain seeds are bad, but there is a subconscious in people’s minds that grain seeds need to be purchased. High-yield grain seeds are all hybrids. If the seeds are kept and continued to be cultivated, the characteristics will be unstable, and the plants may be weak and susceptible to diseases and insect pests, which will eventually lead to a reduction in yield.
But what they didn't know was that the food that Shen Yanming brought out was cultivated in space using native seeds. Even if it was cultivated as food for several generations, its characteristics were still stable and it could reach the yield of hybrid seeds.
However, he knew privately that these things could not be said.
Alas, I don’t know if this secret will ever be discovered.
Bi Qiaoan looked at Shen Yanming who was returning from the restaurant with a heavy heart, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shen Yanming shook his head and did not voice his concerns. He smiled and said, "When I went to work today, they all said that I was too cunning and had disguised myself so early. They also asked me how I got this birthmark on my face."
"You said so?" Bi Qiaoan smiled and touched Shen Yanming's face. Seeing that the black spot was still as annoying as yesterday, she felt relieved.
Shen Yanming shook his head. "How is that possible? If they knew that green-skinned walnuts are dyed, how can we explain the origin of the walnut skins?"
"Then how did you solve it?" Bi Qiaoan was a little curious. To be honest, she herself hadn't thought of an excuse to give others. If it weren't for the tight time last night, she might not have used this method to change her appearance.
"No big deal, just tell them I'm using waterproof makeup, the kind that's specifically for tanning."
"Did they believe it?"
"They can't help but believe it, otherwise how can we explain the birthmark on his face." After saying that, Shen Yanming laughed, "They all said that they were scared by Yuan Ruoxi last night and almost couldn't fall asleep."
"Huh? How come?" Bi Qiaoan wondered, "Although I don't want to admit it, most men will accept anyone who comes to them, right?"
"Not all people are like that. In fact, most people are like your husband, who are very self-respecting and self-loving." Shen Yanming flattered himself, but in his heart he was thinking, "For a troublesome person like that, accepting an appointment is like courting death."
Bi Qiaoan nodded, without further inquiry, she asked: "Did that girl also go on the mission with you today?"
"Well, not only Yuan Ruoxi, but also Tong Xianbao's girlfriend. Not only are the two women not jealous of each other, but they get along harmoniously."
Bi Qiaoan was convinced. She exclaimed: "He is truly a god!"
"Wife, you can't learn from her, it's not good. You should know that your man is the best!" Shen Yanming joked.
"Of course I know. My husband is not only handsome and capable, but also knows how to keep a distance from the opposite sex. Where else can I find such a good man who keeps himself clean except you?" Bi Qiaoan held Shen Yanming's face, which was handsome even with spots, in both hands, and said sincerely.
Shen Yanming was very pleased with the compliments, he said proudly: "Of course, you have good taste, of course, I have too!"
Bi Qiaoan rolled her eyes and smiled, then stayed close to her husband for a while.
