Chapter 067 Chapter 67 Arrangement
The effect is halved, which means that the combat power can only be increased by 25%. Although it is not more than 50%, 25% is actually not low.
Especially when stewing meat strips in a pot, it is impossible to stir-fry them in one pot, otherwise it will easily be heated unevenly, and it is possible that the meat will burn and stick to the pot, so it needs to be stir-fried in three times.
It only takes ten minutes to stew. When stir-frying, try to dry out the moisture as much as possible and do not use too high a fire, so the stir-frying time will be longer.
Therefore, using the system-produced wok to stew the meat strips, and using the wok made in the base to fry the meat into jerky, even if the effect is halved, as long as the quantity can keep up, it is actually better in the current war preparedness situation. After all, the jerky can be distributed to more people.
An Qing asked Qiong Jing, "Qiong Zhu, has the upgrade time changed?"
Qiong Jing nodded. "Yes, but the duration doesn't fluctuate much. It's 30 seconds to a minute shorter than before. The specific duration depends on each person's constitution. We don't have time to get a more accurate estimate right now."
An Qing nodded: "Okay, I understand, thank you."
Qiong Jing came over to tell An Qing the test results. After explaining, he turned around and left to go back to the research institute.
An Qing didn't have the heart to observe Chicken Claw anymore. Although the mutant beasts had not attacked the base yet, they were not far away from the base. No one knew when the mutant beasts would attack the base.
She thought about it for a while, but still didn't make a decision herself, so she called Wei Xunyi first.
Unlike usual, this time Wei Xunyi's line was busy. She called him several times but the line was always busy and she couldn't get through.
An Qing could only dial the number that she had but had never contacted before to find the big boss.
Although she felt that the production method that halved the combat power-enhancing effect was better for the time being, what if the leadership disagreed?
The line on the boss's side was busy for a while, but An Qing dialed the third number and it was connected.
The leader's voice was clearly tired and hoarse, and it could be heard that he was in a very bad state. "An Qing? What's the matter?"
"Boss, I want to talk to you about food that can improve combat power..." An Qing told the boss in detail the results of the meat strips she had previously stir-fried and stewed in an ordinary wok.
The leader pondered for a moment, then realized what An Qing meant by this communication. He didn't hesitate, "In that case, let's use 25% of the combat power."
Although the combat power increase is halved, it can allow more people to improve their strength, which is actually better than increasing the combat power of a small number of people by 50%.
After all, when fighting in a team, the combat power of the team is not as simple as 10+10+10=30.
The combat power that the base has cultivated since childhood, coupled with the running-in between the teams, when they cooperate in combat, it is absolutely 10+10+10>30.
An Qing got the confirmation from the big boss and smiled, "Okay, I got it."
After hanging up the phone, An Qing looked at the members of the Blazing Team who were busy inside and outside, frowned and said, "Strange, why hasn't the person Secretary Wei told me about has arrived yet?"
She went outside to see what was happening. All the people who could be mobilized in the base had been mobilized. Now all the streets were deserted, with not a single person in sight.
Naturally, there was no one there who Wei Xunyi had promised to arrange for her.
But Wei Xunyi's communication line is still busy. When she contacted the leader just now, she hadn't thought about this. Thinking of the leader's tired voice just now, An Qing couldn't bring herself to call him again and disturb him.
If it really doesn't work, we can only let the Fire Team take over.
There are a hundred people in the Fiery Team. Even if she transfers fifty people to help, there are still fifty people. What's more, there are Tang Ming and Muchen. Even if there is danger, it should be possible to deal with it, right?
An Qing looked at Tang Ming beside her, "Captain Tang..."
Just as he opened his mouth, a group of people came towards him in a hurry from the corner at the end of the street.
Almost instantly, the Fiery Team hidden in various places became alert. Even Li Ran and others who were dealing with mutant beasts stopped their actions and locked their eyes on the group of people coming over.
Tang Ming and Muchen took a step forward and stood in front of An Qing.
Being watched closely by so many members of the Fiery Team, the people who were approaching did not dare to get close and stood there stiffly.
One of them stepped forward, still hesitant to get too close. He said nervously, "We were sent here by the Secretary of State to help the hotel."
An Qing looked at the group of people. They were obviously in a hurry when they came here, and there were some sweat on their foreheads. Of course, it might also be because they were scared.
At this moment, everyone was a little nervous.
This group of people all have intact hands and feet. Looking at their hurried walking posture just now, it was very smooth and there was no sign of any disability.
Of course, not all those who couldn't participate in the battle were necessarily disabled, so An Qing only asked, "Why did you come here so late?"
The man standing in the front smiled bitterly and said, "Sorry, there was a mentally ill person in Area A just now, and we were caught up in it, so we are late."
Wei Xunyi originally assigned forty people to An Qing, but as soon as they arrived at Area A, they encountered a person who suddenly exploded and were accidentally involved in it. Two of them had their heads smashed and another had his neck twisted alive.
Fortunately, the surrounding security department arrived in time, and although the person who exploded had increased his strength a lot more than normal, he was not as evil as Mu Chen, so he was quickly suppressed.
But of the forty people sent by Wei Xunyi, only thirty-three are left now.
An Qing looked carefully at the expressions of these people. Some were numb, some were sad, and some were sighing. They didn't seem to be lying.
She thought that these ten days of daily food could somewhat relieve the mental stress of the people in the base and improve their psychological condition. However, she did not expect that during the preparation period, some people would still go berserk.
No wonder Wei Xunyi was worried about her safety.
An Qing felt heavy in her heart, nodded and said, "Okay, then you guys start working. Go inside and wash your hands one by one, and then I'll assign you tasks."
She wondered what kind of work to assign to these people.
Although she felt that these thirty-three people did not seem to be lying, their mention of the recent outburst in Area A still alerted her.
Even if these thirty-three people are fine and were really arranged by Wei Xunyi, the mental state of the people in this world is worrying. Each of them has psychological problems. In addition, the base is now preparing for war. When they came here, they encountered someone who went berserk and saw their companions being brutally killed in front of them.
What if their mental state is precarious and their spirits are stretched to the extreme, and they might break if they are not careful?
In this world, An Qing felt that she could never be too careful, so it was best not to let these people get too close to her. Nothing was more important than her safety.
An Qing waved, "Li Ran, come here."
Li Ran put down the knife in his hand. Several snow pigs had been processed almost as required. The hair on the pig heads, trotters and tails had been burned and washed clean. Now they had just started to process the cloud-hair sheep.
He wiped the blood off his hands and walked over, "Boss."
An Qing responded and said, "In a moment, pick ten people from that group and assign them the task of handling the mutant animals. Explain to them clearly how to handle the situation. Also, have someone keep an eye on them."
Li Ran nodded in agreement.
An Qing took Tang Ming back to the hotel.
Seeing Ye Yu, Yun Cheng and the others making rice balls inside, she said, "Ye Yu, Yun Cheng, Bai Wei, the three of you come here."
Upon hearing this, Ye Yu and the others rolled up the rice balls in their hands, immediately stood up and walked out to look at An Qing.
An Qing looked at the group of people inside who were taking turns washing their hands and said, "Ye Yu, pick ten people later and have them cut the lean meat from the snow pork and then cut it into the same strips I cut before."
Ye Yu had seen what the meat strips An Qing had cut looked like before they were blanched and stewed, and nodded in agreement.
An Qing then said to Yuncheng, "Yuncheng, call out the people you brought this morning and have them learn how to stir-fry meat jerky."
Allowed to nod: "Okay."
An Qing's gaze fell on Bai Wei. "Bai Wei, the rest of those people who just arrived will be handed over to you. Have some of them learn how to steam rice, and you just watch them make sure they don't make any mistakes. The rest of them will make rice balls. That's easy, as long as they're firm and don't fall apart."
Bai Wei also nodded in agreement.
Everyone was busy preparing for the battle today. Apparently, no one had time to eat. They probably just used nutrient solution to cope with the situation. Therefore, An Qing's happiness value increased only slightly. In addition, she had previously spent four million to unlock new shelves, so her happiness value was only over 23 million.
During these days of preparation, not many people are in the mood to eat, so her happiness value is likely to not increase, and she will not be able to buy a new pot.
An Qing couldn't help but sigh and could only lean on the wok to support herself.
As for the food that can increase combat power produced these days, unless it cannot be preserved, they will definitely save it for when the war breaks out and will not eat it in advance and waste it.
so……
The only thing that can increase her happiness now is the rice balls she is making in the kitchen.
Last time, I made more than 600 or nearly 700 rice balls with 100 kilograms of rice. The rice balls were relatively large at that time, and I added ham and seaweed.
There is no ham this time, but she added chopped fat and lard. The fat and lard can provide more oil and water, which should make people feel fuller than adding ham and seaweed before.
This time she asked someone to make rice balls half the size of last time, so at least a thousand of them could be made.
She remembered that the last time someone ate rice balls, the person with the highest happiness value had a 300 increase, and the lowest was 20, but the overall happiness value was still very high.
Based on the average of 200, 1,000 rice balls can increase happiness by about 200,000...
Even if oil and water can provide people with higher happiness values, if the average person has 30 points of happiness, that would only be 300,000 points, which is a long way from her being able to buy a new pot.
An Qing is regretting now. If she had known this would happen today, she should not have bought food for the entire base, or she should have bought cheap food.
She was very upset and frowned as she thought about how to increase her happiness.
The people who were counting and delivering food next door were still working and had not stopped. The base would definitely be divided into shifts to be on guard in preparation for war. It was impossible for all personnel to be on high alert, otherwise the people in the base would fall down before the mutant beasts arrived.
Therefore, those who take turns to repair can still eat the fish with fermented black beans.
Food can heal the soul. Even if they are anxious and have no mood to eat, eating delicious food should help them relax and their happiness level will increase, right?
That's 30 points of happiness value for a piece of fish with fermented black beans. Normally, it's possible to increase the happiness value by 50 or 100 points. Even under the current special circumstances, even if it still increases by 20 points, the entire base can provide her with more than 10 million happiness points.
Of course, this was just her lowering her expectations again and again, but there were still other possibilities.
For example, on the eve of a crisis, everyone is nervous. Perhaps the fish with fermented black beans is no different from their last meal, so they will cherish it more and feel happier. It is also possible that the price increase will exceed the limit.
But An Qing was afraid that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, so she didn't dare to think about the second possibility.
She still had to contact Wei Xunyi and tell him about this matter. If she really couldn't contact him, then she could only bother the boss again.
