Yu Bai looked at the fire in Han Yi's eyes that was almost burning, and his heart moved slightly.
She didn't expect that Han Yi's ideas coincided with hers. The first thing he thought of was improving plants and seeds.
The man who had looked tired just now now seemed to be energized and full of energy.
The corners of her lips curled up slightly: "I called you here with this in mind."
After a pause, she dropped another bombshell:
"And, to be honest, the First Emperor had long considered using the Spirit Gathering Array to improve crops."
"Prince Fusu came this time. Besides the crystal core trade, he also mentioned that they are trying to produce 'energy food'."
"real?!"
Han Yi's eyes brightened, and he stared at Yu Bai closely, afraid of missing any word.
"So...how far have they progressed with crop improvement? Are there any successful precedents?"
He asked eagerly, his voice rising slightly with excitement and a barely perceptible tremor.
If the Qin Dynasty had already had successful experience, they would have avoided so many detours!
Yu Bai shook his head, his expression calm:
"I'm not quite sure about this yet. The First Emperor always planned things carefully before taking action. I'm afraid he wouldn't reveal too much until he's absolutely sure."
Seeing the disappointment that flashed across Han Yi's eyes, she changed the subject and gave him another shot of adrenaline:
"But Master Fusu has already promised me that next time he comes, he will tell me how to set up the Spirit Gathering Array. Then, we can try it out ourselves!"
The light in Han Yi's eyes dimmed for a moment, but after hearing the second half of the sentence, it suddenly rekindled, even more intensely than before!
How to set up the spirit gathering array!
If Yu Bai can get the formation diagram, it means that he and their entire base will have the opportunity to master this magical method!
"noob!"
Han Yi slapped his thigh suddenly and paced around excitedly for a few times. The fatigue on his face disappeared, replaced by an almost fanatical excitement.
"This is so important! This is literally... a life-saving straw, no, a smooth road to a new life!"
He rubbed his hands and spoke incoherently:
"When it gets light, I'll immediately organize some people and go to the city to collect! Gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, anything you can use, we'll get it for you!"
"Just consider it... my sincerity in seeking the formation!"
In the end times, these things that once symbolized wealth and status have long since become waste, but for Yu Bai, they may be extremely valuable items.
At the moment, apart from the crystal core, he could only express his gratitude to Yu Bai in this way.
Yu Bai looked into Han Yi's eyes and understood.
He was eager to express his sincerity and wanted to use those pre-apocalyptic luxuries in exchange for this formation map that was related to the future of the base.
She understands this feeling.
only……
"Han Yi, I appreciate your kindness. But it's not worth it to let your people risk entering the city just for these gold, silver and jewelry."
The excitement on Han Yi's face paused slightly, obviously he didn't expect Yu Bai to refuse.
In his opinion, this was the only thing he could currently produce that, in his opinion, slightly matched the value of the formation diagram.
Yu Bai seemed to see through his thoughts and continued:
"Have you forgotten? We are now stationed outside the city to rest and recuperate because the city is overrun with zombies and extremely dangerous."
"Isn't that why you asked me to prepare those modified vehicles, so that we could safely bypass this abandoned city and find another way out?"
Her tone was calm, but every word was clear, like a basin of cold water that extinguished Han Yi's impulsive behavior and also woke him up.
Yes, they know better than anyone how dangerous the city is.
Sacrificing precious manpower for a few inanimate objects that have no direct benefit to current survival is indeed putting the cart before the horse and the cost outweighs the gain.
Seeing that the fanaticism in Han Yi's eyes had subsided a little and he looked a little calmer and more thoughtful, Yu Bai felt a lot more at ease.
"What's more, the mutant wild boar you sent me is worth far more to me than those gold and silver antiques."
She will use this batch of pork to hold a whole pig banquet at the right time to further consolidate her network of relationships with various people in Beijing.
At that time, she will be able to use this as a foundation to gradually build her own business empire.
"By then, money will naturally flow in. Why should she take unnecessary risks now and search for things that are not urgently needed for her?
