After speaking, Lieutenant Colonel Lei looked at Lu Yuan expectantly: "Brother Lu, this catalyst..."
"Haha, Brother Lei, since I call you brother, then we're family. I've already told this brother about the catalyst. I'll help you set up a breeding system for free, and then your food problem will be solved!"
"Really? You're not lying to me?" Lieutenant Colonel Lei's eyes were filled with tears. He was terrified of hunger, especially seeing soldiers lying helplessly on the ground, never to get up again. He was scared.
The veteran beside him nodded, and Lu Yuan nodded in agreement.
"That's right, it's definitely true! If you don't mind, please prepare some space for me. Oh, by the way, do you have any livestock or poultry here? It would be best to bring them all!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Lao Guo, go tell the logistics people to cooperate with Brother Lu and the others. Just say it was my order! Prepare whatever they need! We must get the breeding and planting farms up and running as quickly as possible!"
Old Guo, looking embarrassed, whispered in Lieutenant Colonel Lei's ear, "Captain Lei, they've come all this way and haven't even had a rest yet. Let's wait until tomorrow! Let them get some rest before we start!"
"Yes, yes, look at my mind, I'm just thinking about nice things. Have they all cleaned up their places yet? They all need to be kept very clean!"
"Don't worry, Captain Lei, everything has been taken care of by the staff!"
After thanking Team Leader Lei and Lao Guo, Lu Yuan led his group to their temporary residence.
This is an office building that has been renovated. The office areas inside have been turned into training areas and storage areas. Every room is very tidy. Because the windows were shattered in the earthquake, they have no supplies and can only board them up.
Fortunately, there were lights in the hallway and guards at the door, so the group felt very safe and secure when they moved in.
Lying on his own bed, Lu Yuan felt a sense of security he hadn't felt in a long time, rising from his feet to his heart, and he completely relaxed. In order to allow Lu Yuan and the others to work well, Lieutenant Colonel Lei even specially ordered someone to heat up bath water and clean clothes for them.
In the shower room, Lu Yuan scrubbed his body vigorously with a bath towel. He couldn't remember the last time he had taken a shower. The dirt on his body was all over the floor, and his skin revealed its original color. In the dark and sunless apocalypse, Lu Yuan's skin was unusually fair.
I washed my hair thoroughly several times, scraping out handfuls of sand and ash. It took several washes to get it completely clean.
After he finished washing, two soldiers brought him hot water and asked if he needed more, which made Lu Yuan feel quite embarrassed.
"Thank you so much! You've gone to so much trouble!"
The two young soldiers smiled slightly: "You're too kind, it's what we should do. Just let us know if you need anything! You're practically our pandas now!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
After taking a shower and changing his clothes, Lu Yuan felt an indescribable sense of comfort all over his body. Lying on the slightly firm bed, Lu Yuan quickly fell asleep.
He slept soundly and dreamed of many things. The dream was long and beautiful. He had no worries at all, just like before the apocalypse, lying in his own house.
When Lu Yuan woke up the next day, it was already noon. He had slept for a full thirteen hours without being disturbed. The soldiers in front of the door changed wave after wave, giving them a great sense of security.
Lu Yuan was extremely grateful to them. Before the apocalypse, these people protected their safety, and after the apocalypse, they continued to protect them. However, many more people abandoned them for food.
As he walked along the way, Lu Yuan saluted each soldier on duty, and they returned the salute.
They arrived at the new laboratory, which was fully equipped and had been cleaned. Han Wen and the others greeted Lu Yuan as he entered.
"You're finally awake!"
Lu Yuan scratched his head sheepishly: "It's been such a long, long time since I've had such a peaceful night's sleep! So... haha!"
Everyone smiled with satisfaction, clearly they had slept well.
"Now that you've all had a good sleep, let's get to work! There's not much ore, so use it sparingly! You guys probably haven't dealt with this stuff before, so I'll explain! Just listen to my instructions!"
The team members had no objections and began to set up the various tools as instructed by Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan secretly poured the water from the dimensional space into the reservoir, and also replaced the soil with soil from the dimensional space.
Adding fresh soil and water, Lu Yuan soaked a plate of soybeans in the water for about an hour until the outer skins opened up.
"These catalysts all come from these ores. The extraction work is now complete, and soon, the next step will be planting! Just plant them using the same methods as before!"
As he spoke, Lu Yuan poured a plate of soybeans onto the soil.
A group of soldiers surrounded the entire laboratory. Lieutenant Colonel Lei, sitting in a wheelchair, looked at the soybeans on the plate with a complicated expression. He couldn't understand how these things could really grow at a visible speed, just as Lu Yuan had said.
Although he was knowledgeable and had heard of other places where such catalyst ore existed, from which a growth-promoting catalyst could be extracted to increase the growth rate of plants and animals, he had never seen it before. He just felt that other people's boasts were somewhat unreliable.
Seeing the real thing this time, everyone felt a mix of anticipation, doubt, and worry.
