Quick travel: I am bound by the longevity system

Chapter 41: Survival in the Apocalypse 15

After some haggling, the system finally agreed that Lin Jiu would open five permanent stalls with 2,500 points. However, if Lin Jiu opened another stall in the future, he would have to spend double the points to open it. Lin Jiu considered that five stalls were almost enough for her, so she agreed.

After purchasing 97,000 kilograms of grain from the mall, Lin Jiu went to see Director Li of the logistics department.

"Minister Li."

"Comrade Xiao Lin, is there any need from Dr. Tao Bo?" Minister Li has been unable to sleep for the past two days because of food matters. Met Lin Jiu.

"I heard there's not enough food in the base..."

"Comrade Xiaolin, no matter how difficult the base is, it will not cut off the supplies for these scientific researchers. Don't worry, don't say anything to reduce Dr. Tao's expenses."

Before Minister Li could hear what Lin Jiu had to say, he interrupted her directly. Many researchers had approached him before and asked to reduce their fees. Naturally, Minister Li also thought that Lin Jiu was looking for him for this reason?

"Minister Li, please listen to what I have to say first. What I mean is that I have some food stored here, which can help the base survive for a while. I asked you to find a warehouse for me to store food."

Seeing that Minister Li had misunderstood what he meant, Lin Jiu quickly explained.

"Do you have food?"

Minister Li looked at Lin Jiu in disbelief.

"Yes, I stocked up on some food before, and some... I awakened the power of planting space, and I used the power to plant it."

I couldn’t talk about the system and the mall, but so much food had to have a source. Lin Jiu thought about it again and again, and said that he had awakened the planting space two years ago. Anyway, Lin Jiu’s wood-type superpower can spawn plants. Now, It is not impossible for her to awaken the cultivation space.

In order to cover up the lie, Lin Jiu even bought unhusked rice and wheat.

"Comrade Lin Jiu, this is true." Minister Li was overjoyed.

"Minister Li, how dare I lie about such a big thing? If you don't believe me, I will show you a bag."

Lin Jiu closed his eyes and meditated for a while, and a bag of rice appeared in Lin Jiu's hand.

"I bought this in the supermarket before. At that time, the supermarket restricted purchases, so I didn't buy a lot."

When Minister Li saw Lin Jiu pull out a bag of rice out of thin air, he believed Lin Jiu's words, so he took her to the warehouse of the base.

Seeing this, Lin Jiu climbed up to the aluminum granary containing grain, pretending to use his powers, and then saw the yellow rice falling into the granary like running water.

Other leaders who got the news rushed to the warehouse after learning that Lin Jiu could produce a large amount of food.

"Old Hua..."

Minister Li looked at the old man who came in and was about to speak, but the old man stopped him. The group of people just watched quietly as Lin Jiu filled an aluminum bin.

After one aluminum warehouse was full, Lin Jiu installed another one, filling five aluminum warehouses. Each warehouse can hold 20,000 kilograms of grain. Five is one hundred thousand, which is enough for the base to support for a period of time. .

After Lin Jiu finished doing this, she realized that there were suddenly a lot of people in the warehouse, some of whom she had never come into contact with at ordinary times.

"Comrade Xiao Lin, come here and meet Mr. Hua." Minister Li smiled and waved to Lin Jiu.

Lin Jiu stepped forward nervously.

"Don't be nervous, just treat us as ordinary old people." Mr. Hua spoke gently.

"Yes."

Lin Jiu stood up straight, holding the seams of his pants with both hands.

"Comrade Lin Jiu, on behalf of the base, thank you."

"No... no need, I am a member of the base. Only when the base is good can I be good." Lin Jiu was so excited that he even spoke in dialect.

"Haha, she is still a Sichuan girl. A hundred years ago, Sichuan people supported the Anti-Japanese War. Today, Sichuan girls provide food to help the base tide over difficulties. The spirit of Sichuan people is passed down from generation to generation. You are all good." Mr. Hua said with a smile.

"I just want not to embarrass my ancestors."

…………

The food problem was temporarily solved, and Lin Jiu claimed a greenhouse from the base. The base built many greenhouses to solve the food problem. In order to ensure the output of vegetables and food, every wood-type superpower in the base claimed a greenhouse. The wood power was limited, and some wood power users could only produce some vegetables, so food became tight. Previously, Lin Jiu was responsible for Tao Bo's daily life. The superiors subconsciously ignored Lin Jiu's wood-type abilities, so they did not notify Lin Jiu when allocating greenhouses.

Lin Jiu didn't like contact with outsiders, and he didn't like to take charge of things. Naturally, he didn't notice the changes in the base immediately.

In the greenhouse, Lin Jiu did not choose to grow vegetables, but chose high-yielding potatoes, corns and sweet potatoes developed by the Growth Research Center. These crops have high yields and short growth cycles, and they are not as difficult to pick out as wheat and rice. Undoubtedly the first choice in times of famine.

Lin Jiu first plowed the land with the smart machine provided by the base, and then asked the smart machine to help sow the seeds.

After the seeds were covered, Lin Jiu used her power to make the seeds germinate. Lin Jiu's current wood power was level five. In this way, she could only increase the growth period of the seeds on two acres of land by about ten days every day. , at this speed, it is no wonder that the food supply is insufficient.

On the second day, Lin Jiu supervised Tao Bo after finishing his meal, and then went to the greenhouse to promote the growth of crops on the two acres of land. However, before promoting growth, Lin Jiu first asked the intelligent robot to fertilize the ground. If the fertility of the land was not enough, the plants that were produced would be the same. Just like bean sprouts, they will die due to lack of fertilizer in the later stage, and the land will become barren due to depletion of fertility.

On the third day, the sweet potato seedlings were ready for transplanting. Lin Jiu borrowed several robots from the base and asked them to help plant the sweet potatoes.

The base heard that the sweet potatoes planted by Lin Jiu were ready for transplanting in just three days. They all went to Lin Jiu's greenhouse to visit. When they saw that the crops in Lin Jiu's greenhouse were stronger than theirs, they all asked her how she did it. .

"Fertilize!" Lin Jiu said without thinking.

"Fertilize?"

Seeing everyone like this, Lin Jiu realized that these wood-type superpowers had never been exposed to farming before. They thought they could just throw the seeds in the ground and directly use their wood-type superpowers to spawn them.

Seeing this, Lin Jiu quickly told them what they should pay attention to when farming, such as how to prepare the land. In addition, corn and potatoes must be fertilized so that the potatoes that grow will be big and the corn seedlings will be strong.

In addition to fertilizing, pay attention to watering, insect control, and top dressing during later growth.

Lin Jiu only planted five points of the land, and the remaining sweet potato seedlings were distributed to other people with powers. It's not that Lin Jiu doesn't want to grow more crops, but that her superpower can only sustain the growth of crops on two acres of land.

Six days later, Lin Jiu's potatoes were ready to be harvested. Eight thousand kilograms of potatoes were harvested from one acre of land, which temporarily eased the food pressure on the base. Lin Jiu saw that there was no shortage of food in the base for the time being, so he expanded the one acre of land to Four acres of land allow potatoes to be harvested quickly through rotational growth.
