After handing Xia Huaifeng over to the Beijing North Base, Jiang He has been looking forward to the progress of the research project.
Finally, four days later, I received a call from Jingbei.
On the other end of the communicator came Xu Chengyan's voice, "Boss Jiang, thanks to you, now that we have a special research subject, the research institute will be able to break through the bottleneck and develop the first finished injection!"
Hearing this, Jiang He's eyes suddenly filled with tears. Her vacation was already on the way and was just around the corner! !
"Commander Xu, this is really great! Everyone in the institute is great!"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang He prepared a big meal for himself, including hot pot, drinks and barbecue, and lived a carefree and carefree life.
…
The supermarket has been in operation for 250 days, but it has not yet met the upgrade standards due to insufficient balance.
In the next few days, Jiang He focused on purchasing high-point products, and in less than a week, he accumulated 18.88 million points.
After the supermarket was upgraded to level eight, not much changed except for the addition of two floors.
The shooting training ground and physical training room were separated and built on the seventh floor of the supermarket, and the areas of other stores were expanded.
There is only one shop on the eighth floor - a buffet restaurant.
Rows of dining tables were placed in the middle, with more than twenty tables forming a circle against the wall.
The dining table is filled with a variety of ingredients, divided into hot dish area, cold dish area, seafood area, dessert area, vegetable area, raw meat area, fruit area, beverage area, barbecue area, and staple food area.
Jiang He was truly shocked when he saw this. "The buffet restaurant just opened, and I haven't had time to restock it. Where did all this food come from?"
The system laughed: [Host, this is a bonus for the supermarket having been open for 250 days~
There is no need to unlock items in the buffet restaurant, and there are currently 150 dishes.
In subsequent tasks, new dishes may be randomly unlocked. 】
Jiang He was a little overwhelmed. One hundred and fifty dishes! If she were to unlock them one by one, she wouldn't know how long it would take.
However, this is a buffet restaurant after all. If the dishes are so few, it will not be worthy of the current scale of Shuguang Supermarket.
The products in other stores have basically been unlocked.
In this upgrade, only the multi-purpose bayonet and engineer shovel are unlocked in the weapons area.
That night, Jiang He had a big meal in the buffet restaurant.
The dining table can be used for both hot pot and barbecue, and she can’t eat it all by herself.
In the evening, Jiang He took his employees to the virtual supermarket to purchase goods.
What surprised her was that not a single purchase quota was added.
The virtual supermarket has added a buffet area and expanded by ten square meters.
On the shelves, there are large boxes that are 1.5 meters high and 1 meter long and wide.
A large box representing one portion of each ingredient in the buffet.
By this calculation, after the upgrade, the number of new products in the virtual supermarket will only increase by three.
The pressure to purchase goods is not particularly great.
Jiang He reluctantly accepted the fact that the purchase quota had not increased.
In the following half month, supermarkets and supply stations sold large quantities of heatstroke prevention supplies.
After the polar night ended, although the mutant beasts became much more well-behaved, the siege of the beast pack at night should not be underestimated.
Many small bases were destroyed because they could not defend themselves at night.
The quantity of weapons purchased by the supermarket remains within the same range every day. As time goes by, more and more residents in major bases own weapons.
It relieved some of the pressure that the mutant beasts brought to the base.
The daily death toll has dropped a little, but the fundamental problem has not been solved.
There are mutant beasts everywhere outside the base, and residents cannot go out normally, which seriously affects the base's production and trade with other bases.
Only by developing an injection and enhancing human strength can we get rid of the current biggest dilemma.
Jiang He would move to a new location every two or three days, waiting for good news from Jingbei.
The supermarket’s daily income is spent on buying magic pills.
All of the forty-six workers were rented out, and soon only Xiaotuanzi and Mangzi were left behind in the animal breeding space.
On the 350th day of the supermarket's cumulative operation, Jiang He received another reward - three purchase doubling cards.
Her joy didn't last long when the communicator placed under the cash register suddenly vibrated.
The person who contacted Jiang He was Chen Wei from the Yongli Research Institute.
"Boss Jiang..."
Just after he said three words, his voice suddenly choked, and if you listened carefully, you could hear the suppressed crying.
Chen Wei spoke again with a distinct nasal tone, "Boss Jiang, our research institute has spent nearly seven months and finally, finally succeeded in developing an injection that can change the human physique!
Your help to us during this process is indispensable. On behalf of all the researchers at the Yongli Institute, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you! "
After hearing what he said, Jiang He's first reaction was to let the system evaluate the current task progress.
[Ding, the progress of the final mission is 70%.]
Jiang He was puzzled. "Huh? Why is it only 70%?"
The system immediately explained: [Although Jingbei has developed the first generation of injections, they must invest a significant amount of manpower and material resources to mass-produce them and administer them to humans in order for this research to be considered effective.]
Jiang He understood instantly, held the communicator tightly, and asked:
"Chen Wei, can't the injection be mass-produced now?"
Hearing this, Chen Wei was silent for two seconds, "Yes, due to insufficient raw materials, the maximum number of injections that can be produced is 5,000.
However, Commander Xu has already issued a call for representatives from all major bases to come to Beijing North to attend a meeting and jointly discuss solutions."
The news of the successful development of the injection spread throughout China within three days.
All the residents cheered and their blood boiled. Everyone was discussing fiercely whether they could get an injection.
"According to what I heard, the injection has the function of increasing physical fitness.
Over in northern Beijing, a man injected this stuff and instantly turned into a Hercules, able to lift a three-ton truck with ease!"
"Oh my god, this is too awesome! Doesn't that guy even need a weapon and can defeat several low-level mutant beasts with his bare hands?!"
"However, everyone's situation is different. Some people experience no changes after getting the injection, just like they didn't get it at all."
"Let's not worry about that for now. The most important thing is that everyone gets the injection!"
"Tsk, I guess there's no hope for us civilians. Such good stuff is shared among the military district people, so how can we get a chance?"
"Not necessarily. I heard that Commander Xu is holding a meeting at the Jingbei base. People from all the major bases will be there. We'll know the result after the meeting."
