He Xu's eyes are serious.

He took out the sweet potato directly, took out a fruit knife from his pocket, and cut the sweet potato open, revealing the yellow sweet potato flesh inside.

Cut off a piece of sweet potato and handed it to Qiao Dongliu.

"Try it." He said.

Qiao Dongliu couldn't believe it, but he still picked up the sweet potato and took a bite.

Hard, dry, astringent.

The taste is really not very good. After taking another bite, I found that the inside was seriously agglomerated, which was obviously caused by lack of water. In addition, the high temperature made the starch unstable and formed crystals...

At this time, he said with a look of disbelief: "How is it possible? There are so many of us, but we have not successfully developed it. What is the fifth base? Is it stronger than ours?"

How sad.

"No, they are a group of bumpkins, survivors in the ravine, the leader is just an ordinary person, without any armed force, let alone a research team, but the sweet potato is bought from them, and the lord asked you to give it to him within three days A definite answer, or the research funding will be withdrawn," he said.

After finishing speaking, He Xu left.

Qiao Dongliu looked shocked and panicked.

how can that be possible?

Since there are no geniuses in the fifth base, and they are all ordinary survivors, how could it be possible to develop heat-resistant sweet potato seeds, could it be...

The thought of this possibility made him restless.

So, he quickly left the office in the next second, found an old acquaintance in the base, and asked him to go out to investigate secretly, and the entry point was the fifth base.

At this moment, the fifth base.

Qiao Xiachu changed into a punk suit with a rivet headband on her head, combed her hair high, and put on a setting spray. She wore black sweatpants around her waist, one shoulder strap fell off, and the other hung on her shoulder. He also wears thick makeup, so he can't see his true face clearly.

When she appeared at the fifth base, the two big tall gatekeepers didn't recognize her at all.

After she expressed her intention to come, she was brought directly to meet the commander of the base.

She directly stated that she had a thousand catties of sweet potato seedlings to sell. At that time, she would put all the seedlings in a fixed position and let them place the treasures they needed at the point she designated. The transaction would be considered a success.

As soon as he finished speaking, the base commander turned around.

Qiao Xiachu was stunned for a moment.

The commander of the base turned out to be Wang Yinghui!

Residents on the 16th floor of Tianding.

Wang Yinghui didn't recognize her either.

After all, when the two met for the first time, it was during the great flood. At that time, she was black and straight, which was completely different from the carefully transformed one.

"Little girl, although I don't know where you come from and why you have so many heat-resistant seedlings in your hands, you should be very clear that these seedlings can be planted by yourself. Once you sell them, you want to have them in the future." It is very difficult to obtain a steady stream of wealth." Wang Yinghui said.

At the beginning, if Qiao Xiachu hadn't saved his wife, he might have died a long time ago.

It is also that touch of goodwill that made him find a belief in the last days, a belief that helps more people, and wants to bring everyone he trusts to fight against natural disasters.

Qiao Xiachu didn't intend to recognize him.

She said: "I know, so what? Everyone depends on their abilities and what they need."

As soon as Wang Yinghui heard her words, he knew that she had something in mind, and he knew that he couldn't keep the girl in front of him, so he nodded in agreement.

The transaction went well.

Wang Yinghui has a lot of jewels on hand, each of which is unique and unique. After exchanging the seedlings, Qiao Xiachu is very satisfied.

It is completely enough to sell this batch of seedlings.

With the growth rate of sweet potatoes, it can also alleviate the famine to a great extent.

And in the community, under the leadership of many people, a deep water well was dug. The water quality of the well is clean, and each household has a limited supply.

A family has three buckets of water.

Qiao Mobai also participated in the excavation project.

Naturally, he picked up the water on time, brought clean water home, and let Qiao Xiachu store it all in the space.

Qiao Xiachu was not vague.

It is still possible to store water now, and the most troublesome thing is that the surface water will no longer be clean and even the deep wells will dry up in the later natural disasters.

Many people's bodies are slowly adapting to the increasingly harsh environment, and their physiques have become different. Although it is impossible to judge the final result, this is a road that cannot be chosen.

Qiao Xiachu was also thinking of a way.

It can't be that other people's resistance becomes stronger, and they become weak chickens instead.

Recently, she planted the seeds in black soil. The growth cycle is very short, and it takes only three days to mature. Take it out and cook it. The taste is soft and waxy, and there is a special aroma. Strong satiety...

In a short period of time, apart from the taste and satiety, no other differences have been discovered.

But Qiao Xiachu was not idle, and planted a batch of fruits, strawberries and watermelons took turns.

Naturally, watermelon is indispensable for summer heat relief.

Watermelon sparkling water, watermelon tea, watermelon juice, watermelon jelly...After eating, Qiao Mobai rubbed his stomach when he saw the watermelon and said softly, "Sister, I'm fat."

Qiao Xiachu stopped growing watermelons and replaced them with pumpkins and winter melons.

Pumpkin pie, wax gourd cup, anyway, all kinds of things take turns to play, while eating happily, while changing venues to take turns to stock up on water.

Of course, Qiao Xiachu didn't forget to go out to inquire about heat-resistant sweet potatoes and the developments of the first base.

Since the last batch of sweet potato seedlings was sold, the fifth base has become hardened, planting sweet potatoes on a large scale, and hoarding a large number of living supplies.

Wang Yinghui used sweet potato seedlings as a medium to reach a settlement with the First Base, drawing the land as a boundary and not aggressing each other.

The first base spent a lot of money to buy sweet potatoes from Wang Yinghui. On this basis, Qiao Dongliu's team produced the second-generation sweet potato seedlings. Within the delineated area of ​​the base, he led all the personnel in the base to start planting sweet potatoes frantically.

Of course, Wang Yinghui is not as self-confident as the first base. They promote sweet potato seedlings to the whole Zoucheng, calling on everyone to plant more and hoard more.

In the past three months, under the extreme weather of extreme heat + drought, the hungry people felt the joy of self-sufficiency for the first time, and they had a full stomach.

Wang Yinghui's status has risen, and everyone has called for him to become the highest leader of Zoucheng to lead the survivors to carry out post-disaster reconstruction work.

After the disaster...

Qiao Xiachu also felt powerless seeing the community wiping away their sweat while blindly looking forward to the future with optimism.

In another two months, there will be a massive insect infestation.

The severe damage to crops is unprecedented.

"Sister, I anonymously sent an early warning letter to the fifth base today. If Wang Yinghui's mind is not dazed, he should be able to start pest control work in advance." Qiao Mobai said.

Since the fifth base became hardened, it began to change its strategy and recruit survivors. The scale was even larger than that of the first base. Even many residents of Tianding rushed to the mountain side to grow sweet potatoes with Wang Yinghui.

Wang Yinghui has a black post box dedicated to collecting information, soliciting opinions from all sides.

He blended in with the crowd and dropped a letter.

Qiao Xiachu was noncommittal.

She's not very optimistic about it.

Not to mention that Wang Yinghui is a human being, even if he really has great wisdom, it is impossible to believe such "nonsense" just by relying on a letter.

She said: "Let's stock up on water for a few more days and don't go out. Insect plagues did not happen for no reason. The water quality will change in advance and it is no longer safe."
