Chapter 12 Ordinance
Tons of rice, flour, grain and oil are neatly stacked in the warehouse.
Mo Fei was in the midst of it, as small as a drop in the ocean.
Mo Fei vaguely felt that this amount of food was worth far more than 200,000 yuan.
But the food in front of him was piled up like a mountain. Mo Fei was a cook, not a farmer, so he didn't know how much extra food there was.
Maybe Luo Chao gave her more because she was his senior.
As Mo Fei thought about this, he moved his hands quickly and began to move the food into the space one by one.
In the office building of Luo’s Grain and Oil Processing Factory, Luo Chao was sitting at the table signing documents.
This calm look was completely different from his lively appearance in front of Mo Fei.
The sales manager and partner rushed in and said, "My big boss, the price of grain has been rising recently. We gave your senior sister the cost price, so I didn't say anything. But you allocated an extra 100,000 yuan worth of goods. Did she save your life? We don't do business at a loss like this."
"The shortfall will go into my account, you won't suffer any loss." Luo Chao said without even raising his head, interrupting his friend's chatter.
The friend was so disappointed: "You are nice to others, why don't you let them know. What era is it now? It's not okay to play the role of silently contributing, and you can't take the role of the second male lead."
“…”
Luo Chao was about to retort to his friend, but his eyes suddenly froze.
He and his friend looked at each other at the same time and saw the same shock in each other's eyes.
What the secretary just sent over was the latest "Food Circulation Management Regulations" urgently issued by the authorities.
[To ensure the smooth operation of the grain market, we will strengthen market monitoring and early warning from now on and closely follow the procurement situation.]
The official policy not only restricted food exports, but also imposed food purchase restrictions on the Chinese people, as if they wanted to centrally control the existing food in the country.
China is one of the major grain producing countries on Blue Star. Once China bans grain exports, it means that the international grain trade order will no longer exist, the international grain supply chain will be broken, and countless countries will suffer from famine.
In the past few decades, China has never introduced such a policy.
I didn't expect that this announcement would come without any warning and yet be so powerful.
It goes without saying how exciting the international market and public opinion are at this moment.
My friend was stunned for a long time and suddenly said, "Oh my god, does your senior have any inside information? How come she did this right after buying so much food? You see, she is from Baishi, and next to Baishi is the major grain market in the south, Huangshi. But she didn't buy in Huangshi, but had to come to our black market. Is she afraid that if she buys too much there, she will be targeted? Unlike here, no one knows her except you. And it is impossible for you to target her for such a small amount of food." It must be said that he saw the truth.
After Luo Chao read the contents of the regulations again, he suddenly remembered what Mo Fei said jokingly when they were having dinner yesterday.
Mo Fei frankly said that she had many nightmares about natural disasters. In her dreams, the weather would get hotter and hotter, so hot that the crop yields would drop sharply and the food would rot quickly. So she was afraid, she was afraid that she would starve to death, and that her family would starve to death.
If a bad dream only happens once or occasionally, we can call it a nightmare.
But is this a dream that occurs frequently a warning from God to humans?
If it were someone else, they might think that Mo Fei was a typical fanatic rumormonger and fan of apocalyptic rhetoric. But Luo Chao would not think so.
But Luo Chao would take every word Mo Fei said to heart and ponder it carefully.
"Go and call a meeting of the factory's top management. I'm going to be out for a while." Luo Chaofei ran out.
The partner was still shouting from behind: "Why don't you ask your senior sister - the inside story -"
Mo Fei booked a flight for tonight. It's two o'clock in the afternoon now, and she should still be in the warehouse he rented to her.
Mo Fei, who was concentrating on storing grain in the space, had no idea what happened in the grain and oil processing plant, nor did he know the latest regulations issued by China.
As bags of rice, flour, soybeans and corn were stored into the space, there was no more room left in the 2,000 cubic meters of space.
In the entire 2,000 cubic meters of space, only the small stream on the ground was still flowing without any impact.
When the space was completely filled, the familiar voice appeared again.
[It has been detected that the space upgrade conditions have been met, and the upgrade will start now. The upgrade time is expected to be 30 minutes]
30 minutes passed quickly and the space was upgraded.
Space level: Level 4.
Storage space: 20,000 cubic meters.
Basic functions: permanent freshness and heat preservation. Automatic classification by item type, several shelves. Soil and water sources.
New functions: planting function activated, breeding function activated.
The supplies that had originally filled the space to the point of being packed with material now only occupied the tip of the iceberg.
At the same time, the one-meter-wide stream turned into a river. A few hundred meters away from the river, land appeared.
That was genuine black soil. The most fertile black soil in the world! Just like the farmland that Mo Fei saw when he came to the black market this time.
"Planting and breeding?" Mo Fei was overjoyed. He immediately took some corn seeds and planted them, and then watered them with some water from the creek.
Mo Fei thought that it would be like what was written in apocalyptic novels, where the crops planted in space would grow as soon as they saw the light, break through the soil in a few minutes, and bear fruit in a few hours. But she waited patiently, but still did not see the corn seeds sprout.
It turns out that not every magical thing can happen to her.
Mo Fei was laughing at himself when he suddenly heard the sound of a car stopping at the gate of a warehouse in the distance.
Given her distance from the warehouse, she wouldn't have heard the sound.
Before Mo Fei had time to think about whether his hearing had improved, he immediately left the space and appeared next to the iron rack in the warehouse.
The time that passes in space is half of that in the outside world. Mo Fei was inside for an hour, but only 30 minutes passed in the real world.
Mo Fei followed the shouting sound coming from the warehouse door and walked over.
She had already recognized it; it was Luo Chao's voice.
She subconsciously glanced at the time. She was going to fly to Bai City today, and the two of them had made an appointment to have one last dinner together.
But there are still two hours before the agreed time. Why should I rush to find her two hours in advance?
After Mo Fei opened the door, he blocked the entrance of the warehouse and prevented Luo Chao from looking inside. After all, he would only see an empty warehouse.
Luo Chao didn't even look at the warehouse, but said to Mo Fei: "I think your dream might be true. I want to hear more about your dream."
Mo Fei looked at Luo Chao, who was sweating profusely, in surprise, and he didn't know what to feel.
As for the warning, she actually posted anonymously on some forums, but they either sank without much fanfare or were blocked by the administrators, so naturally no one believed them. Even when she told Sister Hong at the fruit stall, she just laughed it off. Only the children believed in her as a mother.
But she didn't expect that Luo Chao, whom she hadn't seen for eight years, actually believed it.
But why didn't he believe it when I first said it, but believed it after just one day...
Soon Mo Fei saw the contents of the "Regulations" that Luo Chao had specially preserved.
Her heart suddenly tightened. The government took action.
The country has the most advanced cutting-edge technology and can monitor all kinds of strange meteorological and geological changes.
It seems that they have sensed the crisis from the frequent disasters, strange cracks in the ground, and the continuously rising temperatures in various places.
We cannot protect the people of the whole world, so we can only protect the Chinese first.
Mo Fei heaved a sigh of relief. Since the government was monitoring the situation, perhaps the situation would not be as bad as she thought. Many ordinary people should still have a chance to survive.
But the country's action meant that it must have discovered some major changes, and she had to return to Bai City as soon as possible to be with her family.
So Mo Fei decisively changed his flight ticket to the evening, two hours earlier.
Mo Fei was grateful for Luo Chao's help in the black market. Apart from the fact that she had the space, she told Luo Chao all the contents of the warning.
The crazy evolution period of all living things on the blue planet is absolutely a devastating disaster for mankind.
Then Mo Fei said that she had arranged her own logistics team, and they would help her deliver the grain to Baishi. To put on a complete show, you still have to find enough excuses.
"I understand." Luo Chao only said these three words after listening. He didn't need Mo Fei to produce any evidence to prove that her words were credible.
He knew in his heart that Mo Fei trusted him, but also didn't trust him. But she was willing to tell him so much information, which was a privilege that no one else had.
The two stood together in the shade at the entrance of the warehouse, looking at the sky in tacit understanding.
Dark clouds are coming.
I don’t know what this rain will bring.
Luo Chaochao apologized to Mo Fei and quickly checked the time: "Senior sister, I have asked the driver to drive you to the airport. I have to rush back to the factory now. If the natural disaster you mentioned really comes, I hope we can all live well and see each other again one day."
"Yeah." Mo Fei was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "If you can't stay in the black market anymore, go to the white market and seek refuge with Senior Sister. Senior Sister has bought so many things from you, so she can't miss out on a meal from you."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Eight years ago, Mo Fei disappeared without any warning, and the two did not say goodbye.
But this time, a smile was a farewell, but it seemed as if we would never see each other again.
After Luo Chao drove away, Mo Fei quickly threw the remaining supplies in the warehouse into the space before the driver who was supposed to pick her up arrived.
She didn't know that Luo Chao had refunded his flight ticket to Bai City on his way back.
She also wouldn't know that if it weren't for this inexplicable natural disaster evolution period, Luo Chao would follow her back to Bai City to chase the golden partner he lost eight years ago.
But now he can't leave, because he still has a huge factory, countless employee families who depend on him for their livelihood, and his parents and relatives.
The plane landed quickly, and Mo Fei walked into the Jinshi Garden community, exhausted, carrying a bunch of local specialties.
She didn't tell her parents and children that she had changed her flight ticket at the last minute and wanted to give her family a surprise.
But when she got out of the elevator and arrived at her door, she found two pairs of shoes she had never seen before.
One pair of men's shoes and one pair of women's shoes.
The door was open and noisy crying sounds could be heard from inside.
