Chapter 266 Planting Work (22)
But no matter how strict these rules are, as long as you don't step on the edge of crime and have a positive mindset, there will basically be no problem living in the base.
After understanding the rules, Brother Zhang, seeing it was still early, led them to the LED screen and pointed at it, saying, "You should have known this before. Psychics can enter the base for free, but they must accept at least one mission per month."
Although there is only one mission, basically every mission requires going out, and the length of time after going out is really not controllable by human power, so one is the lowest and most basic, so naturally we hope that the psychics will take on as many as possible.
The more the psychics do, the safer the area around the base will be.
But besides these tasks, is there anything else?
Lan Jin asked, "Apart from these, are there any other jobs at the base?"
Some of the most basic jobs have been arranged when people first move in. Even if there are vacancies in some positions due to some accidents, those few positions will be filled quickly. After all, it is normal for people who can live here to have connections.
Apart from some basic work, the military also needs other things, so...
Just as Brother Zhang was hesitating, Lan Jin glanced at the small poster next to the service desk and asked, "Recruiting planting staff? Is the base in need of this? This should be a job for people with plant abilities."
"Indeed, experienced people have applied for this job. However, the base is overcrowded, and the existing vegetables are in short supply. Furthermore, there aren't many people with plant-based abilities, so this position is indeed vacant." After speaking, Brother Zhang asked, "Are you interested? The base only recruits those with experience."
Lan Jin smiled and said, "I have experience."
If planting in space counts as experience...
Of course, she would definitely not joke about the livelihood of the base. If she really couldn't grow anything, she would just drip some diluted spiritual spring water into it. Anyway, as long as she couldn't let it die, it would be fine.
Moreover, when growing vegetables in the space, Lao Gao and others also helped.
If throwing seeds in counts as helping...
So all of them have experience.
Brother Zhang saw that Lan Jin didn't seem to be joking, and suddenly he became nervous, "Do you really know how to grow crops? This is no joke."
"When we first lived in the community, we all used to grow vegetables in our own greenhouses," Lan Jin said. "We'll go out when there's a mission, but when there's no mission, we can't just sit around at the base. We need to find something to do, and planting is a good option."
Growing vegetables in greenhouses is nothing new, so what Lan Jin said makes sense.
Since he had experience, Brother Zhang naturally didn't stop him. He said bluntly, "Of course, if you want to rent it, it's no problem. Actually, renting a piece of land is not too expensive for you. If you grow vegetables well, the base will buy it back at a high price. In short, you will definitely not lose money."
That's right, whatever you do in the base, the final ownership belongs to the base. Even if you grow vegetables on rented land and take them outside the base to sell, it is considered a violation of the base's rules. However, if you take them home and cook them, or sell them to the base, then it's not a big deal.
After all, in the end times, everything is in short supply, and it is normal for everyone to be malnourished. Vegetables are the only way for everyone to supplement nutrition, so it is not unreasonable that they are of high value.
But when it comes to vegetables, the highest yield is still Chinese cabbage and potatoes. These two have long occupied the major windows of the cafeteria and have never been absent for a single day.
Lan Jin asked again, "If we go to plant crops, will we also plant cabbage and potatoes?"
"These two vegetables are the easiest to grow. If you can grow them well, you can choose to plant other vegetables." After that, Brother Zhang said, "Don't rush. You can apply after you settle in. The most important things in the base are the rules I mentioned before. As long as you follow them, there's really nothing to worry about. H City Base, you are welcome to join us."
…
Canteen on the 3rd floor.
Seeing Lan Jin walking in quickly, Lan Qiaoqiao jumped from her chair and threw herself into her arms. Looking at the smiling Lan Qiaoqiao, Lan Jin asked, "Did Qiaoqiao have a happy time while mom was away?"
"Happy, and not happy."
Lan Jin asked, "Why are you happy and unhappy at the same time? Talk to mom."
"I'm happy because it's quite interesting here, but I'm unhappy because my mom is not here."
This little mouth is so sweet.
Grandma Ling laughed and said, "This child, he only uses this mouth to coax you."
Ran Qiaoqiao argued cunningly: "No, Qiaoqiao is very well behaved and I am telling the truth."
"No one said you were lying. Children don't lie, so of course Qiao Qiao is telling the truth." Ling Jiang said with a smile, but to be honest, she really used her mouth to coax Lan Jin. It was because these tricks were useless to Lan Jin, otherwise who could stand being coaxed by a child with sweet words every day.
Lan Qiaoqiao smiled innocently and immediately changed the subject, "Mom, Qiaoqiao is hungry."
"Are you hungry? I think you want to be beaten, but what do you want to order for dinner?" Lan Jin looked at Ling Jiang.
Ling Jiang replied, "We ordered a few dishes, the kind we usually eat."
After saying that, Ling Jiang heard someone from the kitchen calling for food to be served to their table.
The rule of 5 dishes and 1 soup for 6 people is very good and the portions are generous. However, no matter how full you are, you can't escape potatoes and cabbage if you order separately, but the cooking methods are slightly different.
Chinese cabbage, tofu and ham soup, spicy and sour potato shreds, spicy fried chicken, braised pork, stir-fried spinach, and braised fish.
These dishes are very common, but they are rarely cooked in this space.
After Ling Jiang finished preparing the dishes and sat down, Lan Jin asked, "I have all these things. If you want to eat them, we can go inside and cook them. This is not cheap, is it?"
"We eat here occasionally, and we'll still eat in the cafeteria for the next meal. It's the first time for Grandma and Qiao Qiao to come here, so it's okay to indulge a little."
…
The chef's skills are naturally beyond reproach. These are the same dishes that are served every day. If the taste is any worse, I'm afraid everyone living in the base will make a fuss.
If you really taste it carefully, I'm afraid the taste is no worse than what Grandma Ling makes. They think it's so fresh when they eat it occasionally.
No one talked much during the meal, and they all just focused on eating. Unexpectedly, just as they put down their chopsticks, Professor Pei came over with his team to order food and eat.
Before, they would not have had the great honor to see the professors of the base, but the "top floor" of the base was destroyed, so these professors had nowhere to stay and could only come to the cafeteria during meal time.
