Gene of Brilliant City 13 Division

Chapter 103 Food

call

The sound of the wind whizzed past his ears, and just after 9 o'clock, Gene had already jumped up between the buildings, with his hands in his pockets, jumping in the air at a not-so-fast speed, overlooking everything in the entire city.

Jumping long distances again and again, coupled with the use of telekinesis, feels very comfortable. This is what Gene likes to do most. He can't wait to go to the agricultural department. The most important thing is to eat a meal. Bowl of fresh breakfast.

Gradually, large green fields of wheat and rice appeared in front of Gene's eyes. The southern half of the eastern part was covered with these two kinds of grains, while the northern part was filled with a large number of other crops, such as corn, potatoes, tomatoes, cauliflower, etc. Portion of vegetables.

Jin's only regret is that there is no fruit for sale in Bright City, because there is really no land to grow it. The food base in the east has been carefully cultivated for nearly a hundred years, and finally it has become such a scale that it can grow anything. , including many green trees in the city, as well as flower seeds are cultivated here.

Only for things like fruit, first of all, fruit trees can’t be too dense, so the survival rate and fruit bearing rate are both problematic. Unlike crops, trees grow very slowly. Although gene multiplication technology can be used to increase production, it’s just taste and size. They are all a bit poor, and the most important thing is that they take up too much land.

The fruits that most people in the city are familiar with are known from textbooks, and the taste is replaced by artificial taste agents. Some fruit cakes, fruit and vegetable salads, fruit sodas, fruit wines, etc. are not real. made of fruit.

The reason why Gene went to the park a few days ago was because Tianai had done him a little favor and pestered him for a gift, so Gene came to the Agriculture Department and brought a real orange to him.

"The old man has been gone for a few days, and what he said before should have been cultivated."

The trading post in the early morning was already full of people. A large number of private businessmen who did not use the underground logistics pipeline commanded the mutants who were working as coolies here. These mutants who sold their physical strength had another name, mountain workers.

Gene landed in an alley of the trading station, lit a cigarette with his uniform in hand, and walked out slowly.

"Oh, I told you to be careful, the things in it are very expensive, and you can't carry them if they are less than 1 ton?"

In front of me is a man wearing a suit with a hot face, looking at the mutant who is carrying a large locker like a hill in front of him. This kind of light and shadow locker is a must-have for businessmen, and the things placed in it will not deteriorate. of.

And if you want to carry the things in such a big box, you can only rely on mutants, most of them can carry a ton of things as long as they are D-level mutants, but the mutant who is a little thin in front of him People, already blushing.

Because they can only walk, these mutants who are stronger can go back and forth twice a day, and those who are weaker will not be able to come back once. You can see some people gathering together on the street with bare black feet. , wearing loose trousers and waistcoats, talking and laughing, all waiting to pick up the job.

According to the length of the distance and the weight of the goods, many back-mountain workers can earn at least 30 to 50 yuan after negotiating the price with the employer, while those who can go back and forth twice can earn 100 yuan a day, and some are closer. There are three or four trips back and forth, but there are not many such opportunities. Most merchants without underground logistics pipelines are far away, because the price of transporting goods through underground logistics pipelines is far higher than the price of a back-mountain worker. Therefore, many businessmen choose to use back-mountain workers.

Most of the back mountain workers have two black marks on their shoulders, and thick calluses on their feet, because no matter how good the shoes are, they cannot withstand the weight of hundreds of kilograms or even more than one meal for a long time. not bad.

"Oh, be careful."

The mountain backer who had just walked over suddenly fell backwards, and the heavy light and shadow locker was about to hit the ground. Gene had already stretched out a finger and held down the locker.

"Sir, sorry, sorry, I'm just a little hot."

The thin back mountain worker apologized again and again, and wanted to turn around to thank the people behind him, but at this time Gene had already left.

Most of the mutants here are only graded from D to E. For the mutants at the bottom, selling their physical strength is their only way, and they will not work in the agricultural department because the wages are too low. The mutants who do better, You can also earn 2000 to 3000 a month here.

This is the only way for most mutants below C-level to survive. Every year, there will be a mutant promotion test, and this year's mutant promotion test will soon begin. Only mutants who have reached C-level have the ability to make body scabs. Ability is the qualification to be a security guard or a private bodyguard. At critical times, they can block bullets for their employers, and they also have a bit of combat ability. However, most mutants here only have strength, and their actual combat ability is almost zero.

When they came to the fields, there were still many people busy at this time. Gene strolled in the fields, and then began to run at a high speed. Many people only saw a flash of blue light and a flying uniform.

After a while, Gene came to a research institute in the north of the east, a huge semi-circular research institute, now transparent, with only one floor, the ground is like a plantation, with a large number of plants and crops inside, The staff of the 12th Agricultural Section are busy.

With golden rice ears as the background pattern, the agricultural department with the number 12, and the eastern guard station can be seen in the distance. Nearly one-third of the troops of the third military department are stationed here, because the agricultural department and the criminal management department are in the here.

After entering, you can see the members of the 12th Agricultural Department in black uniforms and white masks, doing something in front of pots of plants with labels. There are a total of 10 floors underground, all of which are stored With a large number of samples and research rooms.

At the farthest edge of the east, there are rows of dormitories, which are used by people in the agricultural department to rest and those who come to work here.

"Master Jin, our section chief has been waiting for you for a long time."

A dark-skinned young man who looked a little weak walked over, smiling with white teeth and a pair of godly eyes, Larry, the secretary of the 12th Agricultural Department.

"Larry, have you had breakfast yet?"

"Master Jin still has your share, come with me."

Gene followed Larry through aisles about 2 meters long, and came to the middle of the research institute, a small pavilion covered with vines.

A bowl of noodle soup is placed on the quaint wooden table in the gazebo, steaming hot.
