Chapter 72 Chapter 72 Su Sanyue is a little...
Su Sanyue was a little surprised. She had only acquired one planet in the agricultural galaxy on the trial platform and had not had time to take care of it. Now the military had actually acquired the entire galaxy!
Grand! So grand!
"I have time now." Su Sanyue said.
"That's great," Li Xun said. "I'll send you the contract. If you think it's okay, sign it, and the Agricultural System will be yours."
Su Sanyue took a look at the contract. The gist of it was that Su Sanyue had to farm in the agricultural galaxy after taking over. He had to supply a fixed amount of vegetables and fruits to the four legions every month as rent for the agricultural galaxy. The legions would pay for the extra vegetables and fruits, and Su Sanyue could also sell them.
"Host, I have scanned the contract and there are no pitfalls. You can sign it." said the system.
Su Sanyue signed her name directly and sighed, "I originally wanted to visit the Agricultural System, but I didn't make it. Then, after all this time, the Agricultural System became mine."
Li Xun looked at the contract and said, "March, you might have to leave soon. The front lines are running out of food."
"Okay, I'll leave right away." Su Sanyue said.
After hanging up the phone with Li Xun, Su Sanyue told Qi Shouqian that she was going on a long trip, and if Xuan Ji came back, she asked him to find her in the Agricultural Galaxy.
Qi Shouqian nodded, and gave Su Sanyue many reminders, asking her to be careful.
Su Sanyue nodded repeatedly. Xie Xiaoyu, Zhu Xingyun, Lin Wenwen, Zhou Xin and others wanted to go and help. Su Sanyue did not refuse and took everyone with her.
Su Sanyue had read the information about the Agricultural Galaxy in advance. The Agricultural Galaxy is a large galaxy with 1,322 planets suitable for planting. They are basically uninhabited and most of them are used to grow crops such as vegetables and fruits, and a small part is used to grow tea, flowers and herbs.
Su Sanyue originally thought that she would see a green and vibrant planet, but when she brought her friends to the first planet, she was stunned by the densely packed skyscrapers in front of her.
"Wait, are we in the right place? Is this the agricultural galaxy?" Su Sanyue looked at the location on the intelligent computer and confirmed that she was in the right place.
"This is what a normal planting base looks like in March," said Zhou Xin.
"Where are the plants? Where are the plants?" Su Sanyue looked around and could only see a hint of green in the gaps between the densely packed high-rise buildings.
Zhou Xin pointed at the tall buildings in front of them and said, "They're all being cultivated inside. I've been to see this before with my grandfather. All the plants inside are grown in a soilless environment. Their roots are immersed in a nutrient solution, and their leaves are surrounded by simulated solar lights. Basically, a batch can mature in a week."
"Most interstellar farms basically plant crops this way. This can prevent pests and diseases to the greatest extent, save land resources, and speed up planting efficiency. Planting crops directly in the soil like March is actually less common," said Xie Xiaoyu.
A few people walked in. They found that the last batch of orders had been harvested and sent out. The robot responsible for planting was sleeping. Every floor was densely packed with nutrient solution and culture racks for planting.
The system ball floated back around and said angrily, "Growing these plants like this is basically castrating them. How can they still be called plants if they've never seen soil or the sky? No wonder people say plants don't taste good. How can artificially ripened plants taste good?"
The system floated out again and came back, saying, "What a waste! This planet's climate and soil are very suitable for growing most crops, but it's all been covered with reinforced concrete."
Su Sanyue quickly comforted it and said, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, we will tear them down in a while."
Su Sanyue looked at these buildings. The building materials were cheap materials made from recycled and compressed garbage, and they were worthless. However, the equipment inside was 60% new and intact, so it had some value.
Su Sanyue sold all the equipment here as second-hand, and kept the useful robots and other things. In the end, only the empty shells of the buildings were left.
Su Sanyue also had a headache looking at these buildings. She thought of the Zerg that could eat anything, and quickly spent some mutant potatoes to transfer 500 ordinary Zerg over.
Su Sanyue ordered them to eat up all the buildings and leave nothing on the land except soil.
Five people and five hundred insects worked diligently and tirelessly for a month before they finally cleared all the buildings on a planet, and the soil finally saw the light of day again.
The First and Second Legions knew Su Sanyue's farming methods and understood why she needed time to tidy up the planet. The food and vegetables grown on the nearby planets and the mushrooms produced in abandoned insect nests meant they had no food crisis for the time being.
However, the Third and Fourth Legions did not receive such treatment. Their food reserves had been almost exhausted, and they were almost out of patience.
Originally, they wanted to follow the example of the First and Second Legions and plant crops on the front-line planets. They even sent people to try it themselves, but found that this method of planting was too labor-intensive, and the crops they grew were sour and astringent, even more unpalatable than those grown by the Lin family, so they gave up.
They wanted to invite Su Sanyue to come and plant the crops, but she had just obtained an entire agricultural galaxy and had no time to plant the crops there. They could only wait for her to grow the first batch of crops.
There is no war for the time being, and the Third and Fourth Legions ignored the First and Second Legions who were talking without any hesitation, and directly sent people to the agricultural star system. All of them were wood-type mutants, who said they came to help and also wanted to see the progress of the planting.
When people arrived and saw the demolished planting base and bare land, they were shocked!
"No, what are you doing?" the representative of the Third Legion said with great sorrow.
No wonder there has been no sign of food for so long. I didn't expect that the people called planting maniacs by the First and Second Legions were actually engaged in demolition and the farming was not touched at all.
"Are you going to tear it down and rebuild it?" asked the people from the Fourth Legion.
Su Sanyue was in the process of having the Zerg eat all the harmful things on the planet. When she heard their words, she quickly said, "I won't rebuild. I can start planting tomorrow at the latest."
"If we plant tomorrow, how long will it take before we can eat? Our legion's food reserves can only last for ten days." The representative of the Third Legion said with a bitter face.
Su Sanyue asked, "How many wood-type psychics did you bring to help?"
"Three hundred and twenty." said the Third Legion.
"Four hundred and ten." said the Fourth Legion.
"There's no rush. It's more than enough. We can produce a batch of grain in three days." Su Sanyue said confidently.
Su Sanyue had already leveled out a piece of land to grow seedlings. Now the seedlings have grown and can be transplanted.
"How can we help?" the Fourth Legion asked. For now, the only solution was to work harder and see if they could gather enough food within the stipulated time.
"Wait a moment, I'll find some helpers to sow the seeds first." Su Sanyue said, whistling.
The earth soon shook, and more than a hundred huge ordinary Zergs lined up in front of Su Sanyue, and then began to skillfully turn over the soil, plow and transplant.
"Is this the legendary scene of sending the Zerg to farm?"
"Fuck! This is the first time I've seen these beasts so well behaved. Every time before, it was a life-and-death struggle."
"My brothers from the First Legion didn't lie to me. Why do I feel like I'm dreaming?"
The soldiers behind the two legion representatives began to whisper to each other. It was the first time they had seen such a fantastic scene, and they were curious and excited.
Su Sanyue exchanged for an automatic sprinkler irrigation system, which was automatically installed on the cultivated land.
Due to the shortage of food, Su Sanyue mainly planted staple foods such as rice, wheat, and corn, supplemented by other vegetables.
After the Zerg busily transplanted the seedlings, patches of green slowly appeared on the land. Su Sanyue quickly organized support personnel to begin working in the fields.
One person is responsible for one acre of land, so 730 people can be responsible for 730 acres of land.
The wood-type ability users looked at the rows of green blocks and almost instinctively began to input their abilities into the plants in the ground.
Prompting the growth of plants on an acre of land by just one centimeter drained the life out of a wood-type mutant, who could only sit in meditation on the spot to recover before continuing to input.
At the end of the day, they were completely drained, but the reserves of supernatural powers in their bodies increased slightly, which was rare.
The first soldier who discovered the difference in his superpowers became alert. He once again looked inward at his own superpower reserves and found that they had actually increased, more than what he had gained from ten days of training at the base!
"I don't know why, but when I input my abilities into them, I seemed to sense the emotions of the plants. They seemed to enjoy our abilities."
"I think I feel it too. My spiritual sea feels much better. I used to get a headache from killing too many Zergs."
While waiting for dinner, the soldiers began to discuss their respective gains.
Su Sanyue directly used the stock in the warehouse and asked the robots to cook a pot of food for more than 700 people.
As soon as the food was served, it was all snatched up in the blink of an eye, and the group of people couldn't stop eating.
"I don't know if it's because I'm tired from work, but today's food tastes especially good."
"After finishing a bowl of rice, I felt like I was alive again, and my stomach was alive too. I'm going to get another bowl."
"A classmate of mine in the First Legion said that the food grown by this farmer is incredibly delicious and has cured countless cases of anorexia in his legion. I didn't believe it at first, but now I do."
"Hehe, when I think about the fact that we can eat such fragrant rice and delicious vegetables every day in the future, I feel like my future life has hope."
The representatives of the two legions couldn't stop eating either. They saw Su Sanyue and a few others take a few bites of rice and then go to the fields, so they quickly quickened their pace.
"March. At this rate, it might take less than three days for everything to mature," Zhou Xin said.
"It's not a big problem. Xuan Ji is back and will be here tonight." Su Sanyue said.
