Bai Shuang: "Just let me know if you need any help."
Bai Shuang knew that installing the frame under the ellipse was a huge project, and there was a deep abyss below, with danger lurking everywhere.
Mr. Ling knew Bai Shuang's abilities, "Okay, if I need to move something big, I'll ask you."
Ling Qingyang: "Sister, please don't get involved. The installation is extremely dangerous."
"Dangerous! But you still do it anyway, don't you?"
“We’re used to it. Once the ellipsoid is moved here, we’ll have time to help you build the cruise ship.”
Bai Shuang smiled and said, "What do you mean by 'you're used to it'?"
"Building cruise ships isn't urgent; everyone's busy storing food right now."
So far, Bai Shuang is quite satisfied with Ling Qingyang's performance.
However, Bai Shuang doesn't need to worry about relocating the base; let's leave it to the professionals.
The hospital and pharmaceutical factory were operating normally, so she didn't have to worry about them much.
What Bai Shuang needs to do now is grow crops and raise chickens.
When I have more time, I'll research some medicines for treating insect bites, as well as insect attractants and dewormers.
Once we have enough, we'll distribute them to the greenhouse managers; they'll need them.
It can also be given to the survivors who collect insects, as they are often bitten by insects.
The base had just finished preparing another thirty acres of land and handed it over to Bai Shuang. She knew that her grandfather also wanted to take advantage of the polar day to stock up on more meat, eggs, grains, and dehydrated vegetables.
Grandpa Lu also asked Bai Shuang, "Girl, could we plant some cotton? Everyone needs to get new clothes."
That's true. Everyone's clothes are already tattered. It's alright when the temperature is high, but if it drops again, many people will definitely freeze to death.
But food is equally important.
"How about this, I'll plant 40% cotton, 50% grain, and 10% vegetables."
Old Lu: "Half cotton, cottonseed can also be pressed for oil."
As for food, we currently have dried seafood, chicken, eggs, and if all else fails, we've also stored up quite a bit of dried insects, which we can eat.
"good."
However, just as the cotton seedlings sprouted in Baishuang, a swarm of mutated locusts appeared out of nowhere, flying in in droves.
It bites not only plants, but also people.
At that time, Bai Shuang and Bai Jiu were observing cotton seedlings in the planting area.
When the greenhouse managers saw the locusts, they quickly closed the greenhouse doors.
Fortunately, the greenhouse was not dismantled. Although the temperature was normal, there were too many insects outside, which could damage the plants inside at any time.
Despite closing the doors in time, a small number of locusts still managed to fly into the greenhouse.
Moreover, these people started damaging the crops as soon as they came in.
Bring half a basin of water.
Bai Shuang took out the newly developed insect-attracting powder and soaked it in a basin of water. The locusts couldn't wait to fly over and enter the basin.
"That's amazing!"
The shed manager and a group of employees looked on in surprise.
They volunteered to deliver insect-attracting agents to other greenhouses.
While the boss is here, I'd better make a good impression; the Bai family's job is highly sought after.
Regardless, they are quite dedicated.
With a wave of her hand, Bai Shuang announced that everyone who went out to deliver insect bait today would receive a pound of eggs as a reward.
You should know that if you go out at this time, you will be chased and bitten by locusts.
"Thank you, boss!"
One pound of eggs is worth fifteen points.
For a time, they wished they could have such a job every day.
Despite spending all their time dealing with chickens, they are still reluctant to buy eggs to eat easily.
Bai Shuang, of course, wouldn't let them get bitten by locusts, so she sprinkled some repellent powder on everyone.
After waiting for a while, the locusts outside calmed down a bit and mostly landed on the ground, jumping around and looking for food.
Bai Shuang then ordered her employees to release the chickens so that they could have a good meal.
The chicken coop door was opened, and the manager gave a whistle, causing the chickens to swarm out in a grand procession.
Hundreds of thousands of chickens, a vast expanse of black, the scene was like a tidal wave rolling in, or like a thousand troops trampling across the land.
You can even hear the thumping sound of someone running.
Charge! They chased after the locusts, devouring them one by one, unstoppable.
Bai Shuang and Bai Jiu quickly took out their phones to record the video.
Bai Jiu excitedly added, "I feel like those chickens are like soldiers, and the flock managers who command them are like generals!"
Bai Chang: "If the son-in-law hears you say that, he'll kick you out."
"With Miss protecting us, he wouldn't dare."
Bai Jiu was very pleased with himself.
Bai Shuang looked around and saw her employees, each one excited, proud, and some even dancing with joy...
Suddenly, a deep, majestic singing voice rang in my ears.
"A hearty laugh echoes across the vast sea, as tides surge on both shores."
"Floating and sinking with the waves, I only remember today..."
There was also a female voice singing along.
Good heavens, who has this skill level?
Everyone turned to look in the direction from which the singing was coming, and Bai Shuang felt that they looked somewhat familiar.
But everyone was so engrossed in the song that no one wanted to disturb them. It wasn't until the song was over that Bai Shuang remembered.
"Are you the celebrity couple who sang during last year's Spring Festival?"
They laughed and said, "Yes, boss, but we're not celebrities anymore, just expressing our feelings."
Bai Jiu: "You're here... "
"We came as soon as the farm was hiring, and we've been working there for a few months now."
Bai Shuang: "You sang very well, so I'll reward you both with a pound of eggs each."
"Thank you, Boss! It's been a long time since I sang. My voice is a bit hoarse and I'm not as strong as I used to be."
"It's already very good. I never thought I could hear a real person singing in the apocalypse."
Before long, the chicken army was full, and with a whistle, they retreated.
The chickens ran back to the shed.
On the way back, while everyone was at home hiding from the locusts, Bai Shuang released the more than 60,000 roosters she had previously stored in her space to eat the locusts.
Once they've eaten their fill, they're brought back into the space breeding area.
They had already been stored in a warehouse as chicken, but now that locusts are rampant, let's feed them for a while longer, as a way to rid the people of this scourge.
These chickens are only four months old. Although their peak growth period has passed, they can still grow longer.
In the afternoon, some of the locusts retreated, and many people began to collect them.
The next day, the locusts, which should have subsided, swarmed again, even more ferocious than the day before, which Bai Shuang found strange.
More and more people are being bitten by locusts.
On the third day, there were even more locusts, and even more people were bitten. The survivors were too scared to go out, and panic gripped the base.
Although the chicken army is strong, their appetite is limited. Once they are full, they stop eating. Even if Bai Shuang releases all tens of thousands of chickens from the space, it will be of no use.
In the afternoon, at the base's high-level meeting, Commander Wang once again brought the white-bearded Taoist priest from the Yuwen family to attend the meeting.
The head of the Yuwen family proposed that he had the ability to repel the locusts, on the condition that the chickens belonging to the base from Baishuang be raised by the Yuwen family.
