It was also because many people in the First Base participated in the soil reform, so they heard Qiao Xuejun’s teaching.
They from Haibao were not directly involved, but they saw them doing it, and after asking around and finding out that they were indeed doing so, they followed their instructions.
The initial investigation was not thorough, so they thought Qiao Xuejun might have done that to increase crop yields.
As a result, it is not enough to know the facts without knowing the reasons.
It is obvious that plants growing in different places will face different problems, and different problems will have different solutions. How can we just copy other people's solutions?
Yuan Zhiyi sighed, "I think our path may have really narrowed. It would be better for us to trade food directly with the First Base. Trading seeds requires skills, and no one in our area knows how to grow them."
Their city is close to the sea and has many fishermen.
They deal a lot with the ocean, so they made advantageous fish skin coats and unique sea blanket dishes.
When Meng Ka heard Yuan Zhiyi's explanation, he felt like the sky was falling.
Is it really so?
This is the reason for changing the soil and adding charcoal! So they made a mistake and should not have copied this part.
Mengka also felt ashamed.
This is like copying the top student's paper during an exam. He took Paper A, but the top student took Paper B. The questions are different, but the answers are copied the same.
After copying, he was complacent and thought he was very smart.
It was a long time later that someone told him: Ha, your questions are all different, you are really good at plagiarism!
Monka: "So what happens if we add charcoal to our land?"
Yuan Zhiyi shook his head: "I don't know."
She also heard this from others during a chat, and she didn't know the details. She probably had to ask Qiao Xuejun.
Meng Ka tried to comfort himself: "...We still have greenhouses and farmers."
The greenhouse conditions are good, not as complicated as those outside. Their farmers can also grow things in the greenhouse.
Yuan Zhiyi: “It’s difficult.”
First of all, it is a geographical issue. Farming is very regional, and crops that farmers there are familiar with may not be able to grow in Gongzhou.
Besides, the four seasons there are distinct, with warm springs and hot summers.
The weather is always cold now, there is no warmth at all, and the farmers on their ship can't find anything to grow.
As for the greenhouse, they didn’t need one when growing crops on their own before, and at most they would build a plastic shed.
They also need to slowly explore how to regulate the greenhouse.
The time unit for agricultural exploration is years. Those who improve the genetics of crops, which one of them didn't take three to five years to achieve results? It is not uncommon for it to take more than ten years.
Yuan Zhiyi said: "I have no doubt that if we give them time they will be able to figure it out. But right now, isn't time what we lack?"
Human life is a race against time!
Zhou Biao also said: "Just like the three of us now, with these broken wounds that won't heal, waiting for our farmers to figure out how to grow sea buckthorn? Do you think it's realistic?"
There is simply no time!
It would be better to exchange the supplies directly with the First Base and Teacher Qiao!
People are happy to change.
Although this is very passive, this is the reality. Many things cannot be done as you wish, and people still need to recognize the environment and the reality!
Zhou Biao also expressed his opinion: "My opinion is that we should not deal with the seed issue for the time being. The mutants are so rampant now, and human casualties may occur frequently in the future. We should improve our relationship with the First Base and deal with the mutants together."
Ding Yunzhe from the production team said: "It is possible to do it, but don't expect the seeds to grow food normally. Just treat it as research."
"It's more realistic to trade food with the First Base."
The words of the three people here carry weight to begin with, and now that they have paid such a heavy price for the base, their words carry even more weight.
Meng Ka will definitely convey their opinions to Yuan Yuanfang after returning.

There is a mushroom house next to the kitchen, where Qiao Xuejun and Uncle Zhang are communicating.
Uncle Zhang showed Qiao Xuejun the mycelium that he had failed to breed.
Qiao Xuejun pointed out the reasons for the failure and the matters that needed attention, explained them one by one, and finally said: "I will come here every day when I have time in the future, and I will do this."
"I have a temperature-controlled box, which I will bring over when the time comes, to speed up the cultivation."
Uncle Zhang was just escorting Qiao Xuejun out of the mushroom house. Hearing this, he was overjoyed: "It would be great if Teacher Qiao could come and give us personal guidance."
Qiao Xuejun: "There are indeed many things to pay attention to when cultivating mycelium. It is easy to be infected by other bacteria, and the failure rate is very high."
Uncle Zhang nodded: "Yes. I am more suitable to stir the wok in front of the stove. This kind of thing requires technical work. Teacher Qiao, you should do it!"
He said, "There are too few mushrooms now. They can't even be served on the table. You can't even see a shadow of them in the big pot of soup."
"I can only give extra meals to the patrol team and the wards occasionally. At least I can still see their shadows."
Once the mycelium is cultivated, the mushrooms will reproduce quickly, and one batch of mushrooms will be enough to supply one or two meals to the base.
Qiao Xuejun said: "I'll try my best."
She looked at her watch. It was already 8 o'clock.
Uncle Zhang also noticed it: "The patrol will be back soon, I'll go get them a bowl of hot soup."
