When Xie Jinfeng first showed this mushroom, Ye Zheng already realized that this thing was not simple.

However, I was still shocked when she said in person that mushrooms could solve the food supply problem.

In the frozen apocalypse, food supply is the most deadly problem.

As long as the temperature does not drop and as long as food crops cannot be grown in large quantities, there will be only one outcome for humanity: extinction.

No matter how much food you store, it will eventually be depleted.

Having this kind of mushroom means there will be infinite possibilities in the future. At least there will be plenty of time to solve this doomsday crisis. Even if it cannot be solved, we can still survive, even if it is very difficult.

Besides being shocked, I felt deeply frightened!

Ice Snow Mushroom, a mushroom that can grow in extremely cold conditions, has no value under normal conditions.

Cultivating this kind of mushroom is not something that can be done in a short time. It requires a lot of time and money.

Who would study this kind of thing?

Unless the researchers had anticipated this ice apocalypse, or unless they had created this global crisis in the first place.

Another possibility is that there is the same reborn person who returns to an earlier past.

No matter which situation it was, Ye Zheng felt terrified.

There was another point that also made Ye Zheng feel strange.

In his previous life, he had no information about this mushroom.

In other words, in this life, the trajectory of many things has changed. What brought about this change?

Myself? Or someone else?

When everyone was shocked, He Hongtian took the lead in raising a very critical question, which was consistent with Ye Zheng's suspicion.

"Boss Xie, I really want to know why you have this thing? Did you predict that the world would enter an extreme cold?"

Xie Jinfeng smiled faintly, "I don't think this question is important. What's important is that after the extreme cold comes, we can still survive, right?"

Is this question not important? Of course it is important, but if Xie Jinfeng doesn't say it, what else can we do?

Ye Zheng became even more suspicious that Xie Jinfeng was definitely related to the Snowflake Organization.

He Hongtian nodded, "Okay, now you can tell me your conditions. You definitely won't contribute this mushroom for free."

Qi Yaodong and Wang Laojiu were also waiting for Xie Jinfeng to continue.

"Now you should believe that this banquet is not a Hongmen Banquet, right? Then can we let the extra people go? For some things, the fewer people who know, the better!"

Xie Jinfeng was the first to drive out her guards, leaving only one personal bodyguard.

Others thought this request was reasonable and followed suit.

He Hongtian kept Ye Zheng by his side.

When there were only eight people left in the hall, Xie Jinfeng sat down again and picked up an ice crystal snowflake mushroom.

"This little thing can be eaten and can solve our food problem, which is vital to our lives. However, if everyone only sees this, it would be too short-sighted!"

Wang Laojiu learned his lesson and didn't say anything this time.

Qi Yaodong looked at her with a smile, while He Hongtian still lowered his head to sip his tea.

Xie Jinfeng was obviously trying to keep people in suspense, but no one took the bait, which made her a little embarrassed.

After a few seconds of pause, Xie Jinfeng continued: "Everyone here can be regarded as a prominent figure. You have spent all your energy and efforts to pursue nothing more than wealth and power.

Can't you smell the scent of wealth and power in this little mushroom?"

Xie Jinfeng put the snowflake mushroom under her nose and took a deep breath, her face full of intoxication.

Supreme power! Endless wealth! Snowflakes!

Ye Zheng has confirmed that Xie Jinfeng is a member of the Snowflake Organization!

But how does she plan to gain wealth and power from this little mushroom?

Soon, Xie Jinfeng gave the answer.

"I am the only one who knows the spore cultivation technology of ice crystal snowflake mushroom. I have limited energy and can only complete the spore cultivation.

The cultivation of snowflake mushrooms requires a lot of manpower.

I can sell you the cultivation technology and spore supply channels. Do you understand now?"

"I see! Mr. Xie is indeed a man of foresight!"

Stanley Ho clapped his hands.

Ye Zheng also understood Xie Jinfeng's plan.

Now that snowflake mushrooms are the only renewable food source, whoever controls the spore supply will gain absolute power.

Ordinary people have to work for them in order to survive, and the reward they get is just enough food to sustain their survival.

In such an environment, as long as you firmly control the snowflake mushroom spore cultivation technology, it is equivalent to controlling all of humanity.

Even if one controls the distribution channels of spores, the power in one's hands cannot be underestimated.

Maybe there is no wealth to be seen now, at most there is just a pile of snowflake mushrooms in stock.

What about the future?

What would it mean if production could be restored, social order could be restored, but everyone was still dependent on this single source of food?

What is power? In the final analysis, power is the control over other people!

What is the source of power? Of course, it is the control of resources.

The more resources you control, the scarcer and more important they are, the greater your power!

In the frozen apocalypse, is there any resource more scarce and important than food?

Supreme power! Endless wealth! They did it!

Qi Yaodong and Wang Laojiu of course understood this and laughed as well, clapping their hands.

Power and wealth, the things they have been striving for, how could they refuse them?

"Hahaha, Ms. Xie is indeed a heroine. This banquet is a feast of power and wealth! I will use tea instead of wine to toast Ms. Xie!"

Qi Yaodong picked up the teacup and drank it all.

After a while of discussion, they soon reached an agreement.

Xie Jinfeng provided the spores and planting technology, and the other three were responsible for organizing the planting and production of the survivors in Haicheng City.

After harvesting the finished products, part of it was left to ordinary people involved in the production and planting as food for their survival, part was retained by the three of them as business income, and the remaining part was handed over to Xie Jinfeng in exchange for new spores.

Once the power and energy supply is restored, various industries will also resume.

At that time people can engage in other labor, but the income from everyone's labor will be controlled by them.

Because they monopolize the most critical supplies, food!

In Haicheng, the four of them stood at the top of the food chain!

All over the world, Snowflake stands at the pinnacle of human power!

This layout is really too big! Ye Zheng felt a chill down his spine.

It would be very difficult to struggle and resist, to break this monopoly! The only way was to find a way to get the spore cultivation technology.

But Xuehua has been planning this for who knows how long, wouldn't they have thought of this?

However, Ye Zheng felt that this matter did not have much impact on him, at least it was not a bad thing. The more people were alive, the easier it would be for him to survive.

As for power and wealth, it doesn't matter. As long as no one causes trouble, it's fine.

No matter what kind of order it is, there are always people standing at the top and people lying at the bottom. Those at the top are always a minority, and those struggling at the bottom are always the majority.

What does this have to do with me? I just want to survive and live a good life.

With this kind of mushroom, more people will be alive and he won't feel so bored and lonely.

After reaching agreement on the general framework of cooperation, Xie Jinfeng raised a new question.

"It takes 20 days to cultivate the first batch of snowflake mushrooms. As we all know, the current situation is that, except for all of you present here, the remaining civilian survivors simply don't have enough food to survive for another 20 days. How do we solve this problem?

If all people die, what power will we have? Who will make money for us? "
