Zerg Emperor of the End Times

Chapter 244 The Joy of Harvest

"Wow! So many big sweet potatoes!"

Wenwen followed Wang Jin and got out of the car. Seeing the harvest, she opened her mouth in surprise and ran to the field happily, holding sweet potatoes and screaming.

"Be careful of falling." Seeing this harvest scene, Wang Jin was filled with joy. After arranging a few soldiers to take a look at Wenwen, they walked around to observe.

"My lord!" After receiving the notice, Du Yuyan and Zhang Zhouming rushed over to explain the situation of the planting area to Wang Jin.

"My lord, according to our statistics, the sweet potato production in the planting area is as expected. The production capacity per mu has reached about 2000 kilograms. The entire planting area has 5800 mu of land, which can provide us with 12000 tons of sweet potatoes."

Holding a notebook, Zhang Zhouming reported the production of sweet potatoes that Wang Jin was concerned about, which was not different from the original estimate.

"However, my lord, although we have a good harvest of sweet potatoes, because the population of the base has more than doubled, we are still not self-sufficient in food, and we need to continue to buy from the underground base."

Du Yuyan went on to say, Wang Jin's face darkened when he heard this, and most of the original joy disappeared, but this is considered a trouble of happiness, after all, the increase in population is more beneficial.

In the past two months, the population of Wang Jin's Lishan base has increased again.

Thanks to the unremitting efforts of the mutants, the population of the base exceeded the 20 mark half a month ago.

So far, the exact population of the entire base has reached 22.

It was originally estimated that the food produced in the planting area could easily meet the consumption of [-] survivors. Now that the population has exploded, the food is still a little insufficient, and more food needs to be obtained from other sources.

For the development of the Zerg, there is nothing that can be done about it, but with so many human resources, Wang Jin is not afraid of lack of food.

As long as he finds suitable fertile land and reclaims more planting areas, Wang Jin doesn't have to worry about food.

"Good job Zhang Zhouming, do you still remember the original agreement, you took good care of the planting area, I will officially appoint you now, you are the highest person in charge of this planting area, and this second-level crystal nucleus will also be rewarded to You, I hope you can work harder after becoming a mutant!"

Wang Jin patted Zhang Zhouming on the shoulder, took out a gleaming secondary crystal nucleus from his arms, and handed it to Zhang Zhouming.

"Ah! Ah!" Zhang Zhouming opened his mouth wide in surprise when he heard Wang Jin's words and saw the shining crystal nucleus, looking at all this in disbelief.

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you thank the Lord City Lord quickly."

Seeing that Zhang Zhouming was in a daze at this moment, Du Yuyan stepped on him secretly, and finally woke him up. He took the crystal nucleus in a hurry, his hands trembling with excitement.

This is the second-level crystal nucleus that can turn ordinary people into mutants. As long as he takes it, he will go to a higher level in the future, completely separated from ordinary survivors, and become a master.

"Thank you, Lord City Lord, for the reward. From now on, Zhou Ming will serve as Lord City Lord with the power of a dog and a horse, and he will never hesitate to die."

Zhang Zhouming half-knelt on the ground, ignoring the dirt on his pants, and devoted his allegiance to Wang Jin respectfully and excitedly.

"Keep working hard! You can follow Du Yuyan to participate in future high-level meetings!"

Wang Jin nodded, and letting him participate in the high-level meeting was regarded as his recognition of Zhang Zhouming, and he was included in the base's high-level management.

"Thank you, Lord City Master, I will definitely work hard."

Zhang Zhouming was trembling with excitement, becoming a high-level member of the Lishan base was the dream of more than [-] survivors of the base.

Unexpectedly, he was born as an ordinary survivor. After several months of hard work, he can now realize his dream and become a high-level executive of the Lishan base with fewer than 20 people. Zhang Zhouming even doubts whether he is dreaming now .

However, Wang Jin's words are still ringing in his ears, and the light from the second-level crystal nucleus in his hand is reminding him that this is not a dream. He is the veteran who was beside Wang Jin before, and after Murong Jun, the No.2 outsider became the top executive of the base example of.

"Get up, the virtual ceremony has been done, take me to continue to observe the planting area!"

Wang Jin shook his head and continued to inspect the planting area along the field path. Du Yuyan also helped Zhang Zhouming up, followed Wang Jin's pace, and answered various questions for Wang Jin.

Not long after Wang Jin’s inspection, a few more cars drove into the planting area, all of them were He Xin, Li Yue and other base executives who had received Wang Jin’s order. Among them was a figure that shouldn’t appear, Jiang Shishi, I don’t know why she ran away coming.

"Mom!" Wenwen, who was playing in the field covered in mud, swooped forward, and with a small leap, she was about to jump into He Xin's arms.

Fortunately, Li Yue beside him had quick eyesight and quick hands, and grabbed the little carrot head in mid-air, otherwise He Xin's clothes would be stained.

"You are here." Wang Jin greeted He Xin and others, turned to look at Jiang Shishi who was in high spirits, and frowned, "What are you doing here? This planting area is not in the scope of bilateral transactions, and you don't need to supervise it."

"Come over and have a look! You're still afraid that I won't be able to spy on information."

Jiang Shishi raised her head, seeing that Wang Jin didn't give her a good face, her pretty face also darkened, and deliberately provoked Wang Jin.

"Wang Jin!" He Xin shook her head, signaling to Wang Jin not to pursue it. Jiang Shishi often played at the base in the past few months, and her relationship with the senior management of the base has become a lot better.

"Humph!"

Wang Jin didn't want to get entangled here, and the planting area didn't have any secrets, so Jiang Shishi followed and took everyone to inspect the planting area.

The newcomer He Xin and others were also amazed by the harvest in the planting area. Pieces of sweet potatoes were dug up and piled up to make hills. Thousands of farmers were busy in the fields, digging more sweet potatoes, a joyful picture of the harvest .

"The yield of this sweet potato is really high, but it's a pity that we can't grow it in the underground base."

Jiang Shishi let out a sigh of envy and was amazed by the astonishing yield of sweet potatoes. It is indeed one of the best foods to survive the famine. This astonishing yield is really not covered.

"Your underground base is not bad either. The harvest time for mushrooms is very short, and the overall output is no worse than that of sweet potatoes."

Du Yuyan on the side explained with a smile, but his face was very proud. After all, he also contributed to this planting area. He was naturally happy when others praised him.

Wang Jin inspected the planting area, and then came to the fish ponds and farms near the planting area.

I saw that in dozens of fish ponds, there are also farmers who put water in several fish ponds to catch fish. After three or four months of breeding, these mutated fish grow very fast, and they are already one to two feet long. when.

When the little girl Wenwen saw something interesting, she couldn't help but run to the fish pond where the water was released, catch fish with the farmers, and track the fat fish running around. Even if she was splashed with mud and water, she happily left a series of crisp laughter. , making Wang Jin seem to see his own childhood.

Compared with the fishpond, the farm is much noisier, with animals barking and strange smells everywhere.

But for people who are used to the last days, they have never smelled the smell of corpses, and these smells are nothing, even the few women in the team can turn a blind eye.

In the fence of the farm, the pigs, cattle and sheep caught from the wild grow here, enjoying the delicious fresh grass provided by the staff, and don’t have to worry about carnivorous animals hunting. Every day, I open my mouth and stretch out my clothes when I eat. I don’t know how much better life is than in the wild. , gaining weight over a period of several months.

However, Wang Jin did not kill them, but kept them to breed and give birth to more cubs.

After all, the number of livestock caught in the wild is not very large. If you want to increase the number of breeding, you cannot slaughter them in large numbers.

Only after one or two generations of breeding, when there is a sufficient number, Wang Jin will slaughter a large number of them to provide meat for the base.

Now the farm slaughters all chickens and ducks. Firstly, the hatching rate is high and there are many cubs. Secondly, they can be ready for slaughter after a few months of growth. Like fish, they are the main source of meat for the base.
