As soon as the gross output value was announced, everyone was so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. Five hundred kilograms of food per capita, everyone has the possibility of getting so much food! More than a month ago, they couldn't even think about it.

And the second batch of sweet potatoes have been planted in those arable lands. Therefore, the food they can get is far more than five hundred kilograms! As long as they are willing to work hard, they don't have to worry about being hungry anymore.

Happiness came too suddenly, and everyone had a sense of unreality.

Because the Hope Base adopts a points system, as long as the base's work is completed as required every day, corresponding points will be obtained.

(The points system has also been reformed. In order to prevent some people from taking advantage of the situation and filling in the gaps to get mixed points, the points system of the Hope Base is that each job is scored separately. As long as you take on the job, no matter how long it takes you, as long as you can complete the task as required, you will be given corresponding points. Even if you only take an hour to complete a day's workload, it's no problem. Under such a points system, everyone is fair and very positive. As long as the task is completed, they will have enough time to rest. Some people who work harder will have time to take on the next task.)

Therefore, as long as there are points, everyone can use the points to buy these foods. Of course, you can also buy them with crystal cores. However, considering the current situation in H Province where corpses are hard to come by, not many people are willing to use crystal cores to buy food. The crystal cores of the superpowers are not even enough for cultivation, so who would be willing to use them to buy food?

(Li Xue looked at the crystal cores in her space that could be piled up into a mountain and smiled proudly. She was so smart. Not only did she solve the problem of the old food that had been stored in the space for a long time, but she also got so many crystal cores. In the future, she doesn’t have to worry about crystal cores at all. It’s really great.)

After the sweet potatoes were harvested, the base immediately started selling sweet potatoes to the outside world, with the price set at two points per kilogram. It’s not too difficult to earn points for the hope base. As long as the tasks are completed as required, at least five points can be obtained every day. Therefore, even those who have just arrived at the base can buy sweet potatoes.

Of course, if you eat sweet potatoes every day, no matter how delicious they are, you will get tired of them. Therefore, the base will also sell some other more refined grains, such as rice, flour, and various beans. The price of these grains is very high. After all, if you buy them with crystal cores, you need twelve crystal cores to make one pound of rice or flour. Before there were sweet potatoes, these grains were sold at twelve cents per pound. After sweet potatoes were available, the price of these grains was raised to twenty cents per pound.

The people in the base also understand. After all, in their opinion, the base has not started to grow these grains yet, and it is acceptable to eat less of the remaining stored grains and make them more expensive. Besides, it's not ridiculously expensive. They can still afford it.

However, the base is also starting to reclaim new land and trying to grow rice, wheat and some high-yield vegetables. However, these things require more nutrients and water. Considering that it has not rained for nearly three years, it is still very difficult to get a good harvest.

Soon, the news that Hope Base successfully planted sweet potatoes and got a bumper harvest spread out. Not only did it attract more survivors, it also attracted the attention of other bases. The first to receive the news was naturally Base H, which was closest to Hope Base.

Xie Bin was very proud for a while after becoming the base commander. He really put a lot of effort into this position. Only after the enthusiasm faded did he gradually realize how difficult it was to manage such a large base alone.

The H base has a large number of people, so naturally there are countless things to do every day. Although he has a group of subordinates to help him share the work, more and more contradictions slowly emerged. The fights between the superpowers, the disobedience of the military, the increasing shortage of supplies in the base, and other things made him busy every day. What

gave him the most headache was the food issue. After the zombie tide, there were almost no zombies, but the mutant animals that could replace food were also gone. When the zombie tide came, it almost ate up all the mutant animals in H Province. They originally thought that after the zombie tide was extinguished, they could go out of the base to hunt mutant animals for food, but who knew that such a situation would be waiting for them.

The people in the base were hungry and full of resentment. Every day, people left the base to find another way out.

Although Xie Bin was a little anxious, he felt relieved. It was better for some people to leave. There would be fewer people in the base and less pressure to survive.

Just as he continued to worry about food, the news that the Hope Base had grown a large number of sweet potatoes that could be eaten directly reached the H base.

Many people did not believe this news. After all, the end of the world has been going on for a long time, and the H base has spent a lot of manpower and material resources, but has only cultivated a small amount of food and vegetables. Moreover, these foods have some viruses left in them to a certain extent. When processing these foods, they must be mixed with some drugs so that they can be eaten safely.

And how can a small base like Hope Base cultivate safe food? !

Although many people hold an attitude of disbelief, many people leave H Base and go to Hope Base to see if the rumors are true. When

Xie Bin heard the news brought back by the people he sent to Hope Base, he could not sit still. It turned out that the rumors were true. Hope Base did grow a large number of safe and non-toxic sweet potatoes, and sold them to the people in the base at a very low price.

And their next batch of sweet potatoes is also growing well. Hope Base has even started to grow rice, wheat and some vegetables on a small scale. And all these achievements come from a land purification agent named "New Sprout".

When Xie Bin learned that the person who developed the purification agent was actually the inflexible Dr. Yang, he regretted it so much that his intestines almost turned green. Why didn't he think of bringing Dr. Yang over at the beginning? He actually let him drift to the Hope Base and develop such an amazing purification agent for the Hope Base.

But now it's too late to regret it. He has to think carefully to see if he can get the Hope Base to sell them a batch of food. Then he can find a way to get the formula of the "New Sprout" agent. Even if he can't get the formula, he can get some of the agent back and let the group of lazy scientists in his base test the ingredients. By then, they will naturally be able to copy the same agent, and then the H base will also be able to grow its own food.
