Officials implemented two rounds of batch starvation, and more than two thousand ogres were found.

These people had been hungry all day, and their eyes glowed green when they saw humans.

If it wasn't on official territory, I'm afraid they would have pounced on it long ago.

More than two thousand people were killed on the spot by the authorities without even bothering to send them to labor camps.

And when he killed more than two thousand ogres, he did not hide the other refugees.

It doesn't matter whether you kill a chicken to scare the monkeys or show off your power.

In short, the official attitude is there, if you want to survive, just keep to yourself.

However, those ogres who eat less, or eat less frequently, cannot yet be distinguished through this starvation method.

After killing those more than 2,000 people, there were still more than 20,000 refugees left.

These people didn't bring much food at all.

Everyone was so hungry that they were skin and bones, but those eyes radiated the light of survival.

With so many refugees, it is impossible for the government to keep raising them in vain.

Office Building No. 2, inside Gu Yuanping's office.

Ke Zin, Gu Yuanping and Professor Li from the farm gathered around to make tea.

Tea is also in short supply now, and even if they are senior executives at the base, they don't dare to do it casually.

This tea has been brewed until it is no longer brown, and the three of them can drink it happily.

"Lao Li, please tell me the truth. Is there any hope of growing anything on our farm?"

The rations for the hundreds of thousands of people in the base were already very tight, but now there are more than 20,000 more mouths to eat.

Gu Yuanping was so anxious that the corners of his mouth blistered.

Ke Zin, who was drinking tea on the side, also looked at Professor Li.

During the time he returned to the base, he also learned about the insect infestation on the farm.

"You can't produce anything in a short period of time. After all, those crops have just been planted and it will take time for them to grow."

Professor Li has become much older recently due to farm matters.

Ever since he learned about Lu Yuan's method of watering the ground with cold boiled water, the workload of the entire farm has doubled.

The farm has also recruited many new people. Professor Li is busy checking the growth conditions of the flower pots and crops every day, and does not have much time to rest.

Fortunately, this method is somewhat effective, and no insects have been found to reappear in the soil for the time being.

Professor Li adjusted his glasses and planned to go see Lu Yuan and the others later.

The cactus seedlings that Lu Yuan bought before had all been destroyed by insects.

If you want to replant, you have to buy another batch from them.

"Ke Dajiao, when you went out before, did you check the food situation in other bases? What if we buy a batch of food from them?"

Although the base still has food in stock, there are hundreds of thousands of mouths eating, and no new food comes in. It can only go in but not come out every day, and one day it will be finished.

"Don't even think about it. Their situation is no better than ours. We still have a lot of water, but their water sources are almost exhausted. Otherwise, how could this group of refugees be so large?"

When Ke Zin went to Feng Province before, he visited two bases as guests, but the conditions in those two bases were really not good.

Their cafeteria has started selling coarse cakes mixed with insect powder.

This product is often out of stock and many people cannot buy it.

"Then what are we going to do with the hundreds of thousands of us?"

Gu Yuanping scratched his hair, which was less than one centimeter long, his face full of distress.

"Actually... the base in Feng Province has already begun to eat insect cakes. After various reptiles are disinfected and sterilized, almost all germs and toxins can be killed, leaving only protein, fat and carbohydrates."

"Dry it and add it to whole grains to make pancakes. It is anti-hunger and nutritious, but..."

There are various benefits, but there is one drawback.

It was the parasite plague during this period that caused everyone to have a shadow of bugs.

If insect cakes were launched now, I am afraid many people would not accept them.

Many people are afraid to eat insect cakes, but they can really save lives.

"I know what you mean, Lao Li, what do you think?"

Gu Yuanping looked at Professor Li and asked.

"If we do this, wouldn't we have to purchase bugs from the entire base? Even if we hide the addition of bug powder, everyone should be able to guess it, right?"

In order to survive, some people should be able to accept even eating insect powder.

"There's no need to collect them at the base. Didn't we just accept more than 20,000 people? Are we going to let them sit and wait to die? Let the refugees outside catch them first and see the response."

It's up to those people to catch the bugs. It's fair to exchange the reptiles for food.

Now the number of crawlers outside has not decreased much.

Although everyone is trying their best to be careful, the medical station still receives hundreds of people with worms every day.

It has been decided to launch insect cakes, but the question now is whether to hide the fact that insect powder is added to the coarse cakes?

The research institute can extract protein, fat and carbohydrates from reptiles.

Get rid of those toxins and germs.

But how many people will believe it?

How many people can accept eating insect powder?

The final result of the three people's discussion was to keep it secret for the time being, and first push out the coarse cakes to solve the immediate food crisis.

Wait until the parasite disaster has passed, and then slowly reveal the news.

After coming out of Gu Yuanping's office, Professor Li rushed to the villa area.

Arriving in front of Han Ying's villa, Professor Li was really shocked to see such a high wall.

But the better the walls are built here, the safer Lu Yuan, the others, and the cacti will be.

Seeing a doorbell next to the doorframe of the wall, Professor Li pressed it.

When they heard the doorbell ring, Han Ying and Lu Yuan were eating snacks and watching TV series on the second floor of the villa.

There are seven or eight kinds of snacks and fruits on the table, as well as two bottles of iced milk tea.

Lu Yuan went into the bathroom and washed his hands and mouth before going downstairs to open the door.

No matter who it was, whether it was coming upstairs or not, Han Ying put away the things that shouldn't be there.

Han Ying also went into the bathroom to clean up before going downstairs.

When I came downstairs, I found that it was Professor Li.

"You guys have done quite well here. I won't sit down. Can you take me to see the cactus?"

Seeing Lu Yuan asking him to sit down, Professor Li waved his hand directly.

"Most of the cacti are in the villa next to it, shall we go there?"

Lu Yuan pointed to the other villa.

The three of them came to Villa 1107 next to them.

In addition to a trail for walking on the first floor, the entire floor is filled with various large flowerpots.

Inside these flowerpots are some small cacti that have just been cut.

Although it looks small, with only a few thumb-sized seedlings popping up, they are growing well.

Although it is incomparable to what it was before the apocalypse, it is still able to grow like this under such harsh conditions. Even Professor Li calls it amazing.

"These ones on the first floor were planted recently. If you want to pick them, I'm afraid you have to wait a few months."

Cacti grow quickly, especially if they are kept in space for a few days from time to time.
