Apocalyptic natural disaster, stock up with billions of supplies to survive
Chapter 421 New Potato Seeds
"You two planted it? It's impossible. You've only been here for a long time. How could it be so fast?"
Professor Li grabbed another large handful and looked at it to confirm that it was indeed new corn.
"We bought it from someone else. They said it was the offspring of some kind of mutated corn and that it could survive in harsh environments."
"After we bought it, we tried it when we got home, and it actually worked. Here is a photo, Professor Li. Take a look."
As she spoke, Han Ying took out the new mobile phone from her backpack, opened the photo album inside and showed it to Professor Li.
In the photo is a large planting pot with three corn seedlings that have grown six to seven centimeters in length.
"Okay, okay, she looks really good..."
When Professor Li looked at the seedlings in the photo, his eyes became moist.
This apocalypse has overturned the crop cultivation techniques he has studied all his life.
He and the research institute studied various plants day and night, hoping to develop crops that could adapt to extreme weather.
After researching for so long, a new type of potato that can grow in extreme weather was developed based on a mutant potato.
There is also a tomato that can also grow well in extreme weather, but this tomato was not developed here at the Pengcheng base, but by people from Feng Province.
The Pengcheng base exchanged potato seeds for tomato seeds.
And now there's more corn.
The more crops that can be grown, the better the world will be.
"So what's the total here?"
The base director Ke Zin also saw the photo. This is definitely a good thing.
Although new types of potatoes and tomatoes have been developed, the seeds are limited after all.
It is difficult to satisfy more people with a harvest in a short period of time.
If the five bags in front of you are all corn, then the harvest in the future will definitely not be small.
"There are 500 kilograms here. Let the farm plant it first. If it succeeds, we will try to see if we can buy more corn seeds."
Lu Yuan did not directly tell Han Ying his plans, but if there are more corn seeds by then, the base will definitely make arrangements by itself.
"If these can really be planted successfully, then the more of these seeds, the better. Isn't it difficult to get this kind of seeds? What did you use in exchange for these? I can't let you spend money. You write a list and the base will give it to you. You make up for it.”
Ke Zin said and went to the table to find paper and pen, then handed it to Han Ying for her to write.
In his opinion, such precious corn seeds must not be cheap.
So he was ready to bleed.
"We plan to exchange these corn seeds for other seeds with the base."
In front of these people, Han Ying and Lu Yuan were embarrassed to say that these corn seeds were exchanged for small umbrellas.
"Speaking of which, I almost forgot. I also brought you a lot of good things during this trip."
As he spoke, Professor Li pushed out a box from the corner like a treasure.
Opening the box, Han Ying saw several bags inside.
"These two bags are new types of potatoes and new tomatoes, for you to try."
"The other two packets are potato seeds and tomato seeds for you to try planting. I also attached a planting instruction. We will discuss what happens after planting."
Professor Li opened the bags one by one and introduced the contents to the two of them one by one.
"Are these potato seeds?"
After his rebirth, Lu Yuan became more knowledgeable about planting, and he also planted a lot of potatoes in the space.
So he naturally knew that potatoes are not propagated from seeds, but from tubers.
Now when I suddenly see a packet of potato seeds, I feel a little strange.
"This is a new type of potato, temporarily named M potato. M is the name of the owner of the mutant potato."
"M potatoes are a little different from ordinary potatoes. They cannot reproduce through tuber germination. Instead, they have to wait until the plants age to produce fruits."
"This kind of potato grows very fast and can be harvested in three months. Its starch content is very high. The longer it grows, the higher the starch content will be, and the more hungry it will be."
"But if the growth time is less than 3 months, the starch content and taste will be no different from ordinary potatoes. You will know after you go back and try it."
After Professor Li introduced M potatoes to the two of them, he placed the two packets of seeds directly in Lu Yuan's hand.
"You guys can try planting it first, and then let me know if you have any needs. I will try my best to make it as convenient as possible for you."
Ke Zin knew that the planting skills of these two people were not inferior to Professor Li at all.
Moreover, when they were at the Pengcheng base, both of them could grow things that Professor Li couldn't grow very well.
It is precisely because of this that Professor Li said that he must give Lu Yuan some seeds.
Don't put all your eggs in one basket, and the same goes for these seeds, which cannot be planted in just one place.
"Okay, we will."
Lu Yuan solemnly promised.
After talking about the seeds, Ke Zin talked about some things at the Pengcheng base.
Han Ying and Lu Yuan asked about the situation of the meteorite rain in Pengcheng.
Ke Zin said that the situation at the Pengcheng base was better than that in Jiangcheng. After all, the news of the meteorite attack in Jiangcheng came from Pengcheng.
So the Pengcheng base has more time to move.
Similarly, they also moved to the air raid shelter in Pengcheng.
But a large meteorite with a diameter of several meters fell in Pengcheng, causing the air-raid shelter to collapse and crushing several people to death.
When she heard that there was a large meteorite with a diameter of several meters over there, Han Ying's eyes suddenly lit up.
So he pretended to be casual and asked Corzine where the meteorite hit.
Ke Zin did not hide anything and told Han Ying directly the place.
After getting the news about the big meteorite quietly, the two asked some more about the relocation.
Ke Zin said that most of the healthy people there have been relocated, and in a few days, the deputy base director will also come.
After chatting for a while, Han Ying and the others said goodbye and left.
After Han Ying and the others left, Professor Li also left. He was anxious to go back and study the mutant corn seeds.
Only Liu Hefeng and Ke Zin were left to continue talking about things.
The two were talking about the refugees who had moved to Jiangcheng on foot.
When those people were about to arrive in Jiangcheng, they were greeted by a rain of meteorites.
The dense rain of meteorites caught them off guard.
Originally, there were thousands of people who came here on foot, but when the dense rain of meteorites fell, it was like purgatory on earth.
Later, Liu Hefeng sent someone to look over and saw that there were piles of burnt or trampled or smashed corpses.
The survivors hid in a cave in the mountain.
Liu Hefeng was worried that the plague would break out again after the piles of corpses collectively rotted, so he directly had them piled together and burned.
More than twenty soldiers worked for a full day and night to burn all the corpses.
Ke Zin only found out about this after arriving in Jiangcheng, but he was also helpless.
