Chapter 943 Another one is coming
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan had no idea about Wen Shengshan.
Although Shen Yanming had sown the seeds at Wensheng Mountain, he had long forgotten about it after a few months, and he didn't know whether the guards had discovered it.
Watching the guards coming in and out every day, I just thought they were going to Yunling Mountain to hunt.
For this purpose, Shen Yanming traveled back and forth to Yunling Mountain several times in the middle of the night through space, secretly releasing small animals, which made everyone in the base shout that they were enjoying the food.
It was not until mid-July, when the wheat was ripe and the family of four went to the agricultural area to help with the harvest, that they heard some news from Ye Wengui.
Shen Yanming was stunned at the time, and then he stopped releasing small animals into Yunling Mountain.
Everyone in the base felt a little disappointed when they found that the prey had returned to normal, but they were still grateful for the meat during this period.
After harvesting the wheat in the agricultural area, the family of four went to harvest the land they had reclaimed outside the base.
One acre of land can only yield two to three hundred kilograms of wheat. It may seem like a small amount, but it can last for two or three months.
The couple also planted potatoes and sweet potatoes, which are high-yield crops, which can last for two or three months. The couple also bought some from the guards, which was enough for them to eat.
Of course, these are all on the surface. In secret, their space is also producing food continuously.
The crops on Wensheng Mountain also mature at this time.
The golden bean-sized wheat grains are so delicious. The half-meter-long corn cobs are incredible. The small tomatoes the size of eggs are mouth-watering. Not to mention the sweet potatoes and potatoes the size of bowls, the cantaloupes the size of small washbasins, and the pumpkins the size of bathtubs.
Wen Mengguan had people pick some samples and brought them back, boiled or fried them for everyone to taste. After they found the taste excellent, they saved all the seeds that could be saved, such as wheat, corn, soybeans, mung beans, and peanuts.
As for pumpkins, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants, which can be partially eaten, the flesh is eaten, leaving only the seeds. Sweet potatoes and potatoes are also stored, waiting to be dormant in low temperatures before breeding before the arrival of spring.
Because the harvest was a secret and not many people knew about it, everyone was very happy when the canteen at the base added extra meals.
I have never eaten such delicious food. It is so fragrant that I can almost swallow my tongue.
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan also went to join in the fun.
I ordered a tomato and egg dish and a steamed pumpkin dish. These two dishes didn't feel old or unpalatable. Of course, they were expensive.
As for cucumbers and eggplants, although the seeds have been removed, the outer flesh is still edible, but after all, it is old and the taste is not as good as before. But the spiritual energy inside is still very tempting. It is really worth spending a little credit to eat it.
After that, the temperature in Hai City began to slowly drop again. This year's highest temperature is two or three degrees lower than last year. Although it is not obvious to the naked eye, it still has an impact on farming.
The agricultural areas took the time to plant vegetables with short growth cycles such as lettuce and celery, as well as drought-resistant vegetables such as radishes and cabbages.
Alas, there is no way. Since the spring and autumn are not long enough, they have to race against time to harvest more food and vegetables.
Time flies, and it is the end of July in a blink of an eye.
A group of survivors returned to Hai City. Among them, there were several familiar figures, but Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan didn’t know them yet.
The group sat on the ground at the entrance of the base, looking at the completely different mental states of the residents of Haishi Base, and were extremely surprised. Some of the brave ones even stepped forward and asked, "Are those who just left all the rich people here?"
Liang Zheng at the door raised his eyebrows and said nonchalantly, "No, he's just an ordinary resident of District D."
"Zone D?" Although the residential arrangements of each base are different, you can tell from the sound that Zone D is not a core area.
"Yes, that's right." Liang Zheng nodded affirmatively.
"Then why are they so fat?"
When Liang Zheng heard this, he almost couldn't help laughing.
He looked seriously at the people sitting on the ground and said, "It's okay, this is the minimum standard of our Haishi base. Life in Area A and Area B is better." Of course, one can only live a life without worries about food and clothing by relying on one's own efforts.
The second half of the sentence was not said, anyway, they will know it later. The purpose now is to be ignorant and Versailles and experience the feeling of superiority.
"Where are you from? Why did you arrive just now? And you look so thin." Liang Zheng was rarely curious.
"Well, from all over the world. Some are from Xijiang City, some are from Beiha City, some are from Donglin City, and many other places. We just met each other on the road."
"Why don't you stay at the original base? It's such a pain to come all the way to Hai City!"
"Who said it wasn't?" This person seemed to open up and say, "If it's okay to stay there, who would want to change places?
Alas, we have a hard life. We are all at the bottom of the base, doing the hardest work every day, but we can't earn many credit points.
It would be bad enough to have an empty stomach, but I also have to suffer from the bullying of bullies all the time.
It would be fine if we tolerated it once or twice, but that bastard never stopped bullying us. We couldn't handle it, so we just left.
I thought that Hai City had rich land before the end of the world, and it was located in the central part of Qinghua Country, neither too hot nor too cold, so it should be better than other places, so I came here to seek refuge. "
Liang Zheng nodded, but didn't say whether he believed it or not. The base had a rule that survivors could not be rejected. So the reason why they came here was not that important. As long as they behaved themselves in the future, it would be fine.
So he said: "Our Hai City has good public security, but the base does not support idle people. If you want to eat well, you must work. You can either work for the base or open up wasteland outside the base. There are many choices, but no matter which one you choose, you must abide by the relevant regulations.
The resources in Hai City are quite abundant, and as long as you work hard, you can survive.
However, the base has severe penalties for illegal and criminal acts such as rioting, fighting, and theft. Once you commit a crime, it is not as simple as expulsion. You have to do the dirtiest, hardest, and most tiring work in the base until you are released after serving your sentence."
Everyone sitting there shuddered when they heard this.
Most of them don't have the courage to do bad things, but it's frustrating enough to be given a warning before they even enter the base.
Some people even doubted whether they should come to Haishi. This place seemed not as friendly as they imagined.
But the base guards did not give them much chance to think. Soon, someone came with a machine and registered them one by one.
Zeng Yiming supported his parents and stood at the end of the line. After the people in front of him had registered, he opened the smart bracelets of the family of three and swiped them on the machine.
Liang Zheng took a look and asked in surprise: "Come from Kunmeng Mountain?"
Zeng Yiming nodded: "Well, I was lucky enough to go to the shelter. After the tsunami, I went down the mountain and lived in the base over there for a few months, but I still couldn't get used to it, so I came to Haishi."
