Finishing touches?
Bai Shuang thought about it and realized that this was quite a task; she had to deliver the straw from each plot of land to the base's paper mill in exchange for points.
There are also many projects covering more than 600,000 mu (approximately 40,000 hectares).
And all the greenhouses have to be taken down, and all the tools inside have to be organized together, etc.
Lu Yu and Commander Liu's troops had been helping for a long time, and after harvesting the crops, they had other tasks to complete, so Bai Shuang nodded in agreement.
"Okay, but you must do the job well."
"Mission accomplished!"
The chickens and eggs are being processed at the base, which is also working hard to produce smoked chicken, smoked eggs, and other products that can be stored for a long time.
The white frost-like particles were directly stored in the static warehouse.
Only a small portion was kept and used to raise chickens on the base's planting platform to provide manure.
After the plants were harvested, Commander Wang's men began to dismantle the greenhouses and collect and transport the straw.
Straw is an excellent raw material for papermaking. She doesn't need the points; she just wants a portion of the paper produced.
Taking advantage of the night when no one was looking, Bai Shuang moved all the greenhouses into her private space and temporarily stopped planting.
Whether or not we need to plant it in the future depends on the specific circumstances.
In the dark, a lot of energy is needed to supplement lighting and heating, so the base has temporarily abandoned this idea.
Finally, Baishuang spread a large area of relatively cold-resistant alfalfa in the planting area, which can be used as both pasture and vegetables, and left it to grow and die naturally.
However, the seeds activated by the spiritual spring water will definitely sprout. If they can grow a little, the survivors can eat them as wild vegetables during the dark night.
While Bai Shuang was busy harvesting, the other survivors were busy going to work, earning points, and collecting food and vegetables.
Meanwhile, in addition to their work, they were also busy moving and dismantling tents.
Before daylight completely disappeared, the flock of chickens in Baishuang's fields were all harvested with the help of several large groups.
They happily returned to their unit, clutching the generous reward given to them by Bai Shuang.
With the military rations provided by the base, at the very least, they will not face the threat of starvation for the next few years.
The other survivors also packed up their belongings and food supplies and moved into the new base.
Living in the Oval Head, which I had lost and then regained, I felt incredibly safe.
They've weathered this hurdle, so even if it rains knives from the sky, they don't need to be afraid for now.
The only downside was the water shortage this time.
Originally, the ellipsoid was surrounded by seawater, providing ample water for filtration. Now, the drinking water problem can only be solved by relying on wells.
Therefore, water prices have increased, and water supply is limited in time and quantity, but these will not affect the overall situation.
After several years of saving, Mr. Wu finally bought a two-bedroom apartment.
He also bought a one-bedroom apartment during the day, but he didn't have enough points, so he borrowed some from Bai Shuang.
It wasn't that she was unwilling to give them away for free, but rather that she disliked others taking things for free without working for them, which would lead to bad habits.
Even though Lu Yu's army always provided them with supplies for a legitimate reason, they never gave them anything for nothing.
At the end of March, as the survivors settled down, the first cold wave arrived.
Although it's not as cold as extreme cold, it's still around minus 20 or 30 degrees Celsius. If you're not dressed warmly enough, you'll definitely freeze to death.
The worms in the ground finally stopped moving; it's unclear whether they hibernated or froze to death.
At this point, people were grateful to be living in the base, where they no longer had to suffer from hunger and cold. If they were still living in tents, they would have suffered even more.
But it's polar night now, and it's dark all day long. If this goes on for too long, it can cause mental illness. So, the base's streetlights must be on during the day.
Turn everything off at night to save energy.
The plantations and farms in Baishuang have stopped operating, the fishing has stopped, the soldiers leveling the land have also stopped working, the land is frozen, and even the insects cannot be collected.
A large number of survivors lost their jobs, making it difficult for them to find employment.
Although everyone's situation is much better now than a few years ago, with clothes to wear and food reserves, it's not a good idea to just sit around and wait for our resources to run out.
Those still working now, besides public officials, are only the planting platforms managed during the day, and the meat, egg and other food processing plants that are still operating.
During the midnight sun, the final harvest is enormous and can sustain the crop for a period of time.
As for hospitals and pharmaceutical factories, they don't need many people, the staff is fixed, and no one else can get in.
During the day, the couple still helped Bai Shuang manage the internal planting platform. However, the cost of planting has increased, as the plants now require supplemental lighting and heating.
Uncle Li returned to Bai Family Hospital as its director, helping Bai Shuang manage the hospital.
Zuo Da Shao was the most cunning. As soon as he saw that a large area of farms had stopped planting, he immediately returned to the pharmaceutical factory, took Zuo Er Shao with him, and started helping to deliver medicine again.
Uncle Mike had nothing better to do, so he took his junior brother to help out during the day.
Bai Shuang lacks nothing and doesn't want to worry about anything else. She'd like to take a break, enjoy herself, and then think about other things.
Lu Yu still went to work at the military camp every day, so she took Bai Jiu and the snow leopard and resumed her previous lifestyle when she had nothing to do.
Every morning, the three of them and their dog go to practice their skills. They believe that practice is essential and that's the bottom line.
Later, they simply followed Lu Yu to the military camp for training. The three of them, along with Xue Bao, were all highly skilled in martial arts, and no one could defeat them except Lu Yu.
Every time they practice, it's a beautiful sight to behold.
Each time, a large number of officers and soldiers would follow behind them and imitate them, and when they had free time, they would often give pointers to others.
After finishing their training, the three of them went back to their own homes for dinner. The communal meals in the military camp were vastly different from their own standard of living.
Then, when I have free time, I make all sorts of delicious food.
It's been a long time since I've stored any food; most of what I stored before has already been eaten.
The cooked food in the space now is what Bai Jiu and the others sometimes made and stored up; there isn't much left.
While there's still time, since there's nothing else to do in the dark, let's save up some money.
All kinds of dumplings: lean filling, meat filling, pork filling, beef filling, lamb filling, fish filling, shrimp filling...
Keep some raw, some cooked, and some frozen.
There are also buns with various fillings, various kinds of fish, and various cooking methods: steamed, braised, stewed in oil, sliced and added to hot pot...
There are also various kinds of seafood, so I'll make some to store, and various kinds of vegetables to store as well.
There are also various kinds of noodles, such as seaweed and shrimp noodles, mushroom and egg soup noodles, Qishan minced meat noodles, pickled cabbage noodles, pumpkin and cod soup noodles, etc.
There are also various types of rice, such as bamboo rice, mutton rice, chicken rice, eight-treasure rice, pumpkin and chicken rice, pineapple rice, and so on.
There are also various kinds of porridge, such as preserved egg and lean pork porridge, vegetable porridge, sea cucumber and millet porridge, bird's nest porridge, and so on.
Fruits, for example, should be fresh for home consumption. We can also make some canned fruit, which can be given as gifts or eaten when it's inconvenient to eat them.
We painstakingly hoard supplies so that we can have an easier time.
The three of them were cooking, and the snow leopard was particularly helpful, constantly running around to help, but on the condition that it tasted every dish it made.
Otherwise, Grandpa Xue will refuse to do it again next time.
Every time Lu Yu comes home from get off work, the first thing he says when he walks in the door is, "Wife, what delicious food are you making today?"
