The salt fruit trees are not dug up after the salt fruits are picked.

Because when Han Ying went to the farm to dig up the salt fruit trees that day, she found that there were some fruit trees next to them that had not borne fruit.

Those fruit trees don’t look like newly grown trees, but rather look a bit like old trees.

Therefore, Han Ying guessed that the salt fruit tree should bear fruit more than once, but it would take time to determine how many times it could bear fruit.

Sure enough, as Han Ying guessed, the salt fruit tree that had been picked for fruit began to produce small flower buds again more than half a month later.

It only takes more than half a month after picking to bloom and bear fruit again, which is much faster than germination and planting.

I just don’t know if the number of fruits in the second crop will be less than the first crop.

There are still quite a few flower buds on the salt fruit tree, but it is not certain how many fruits it will bear in the end.

After the flowers bloom, you don’t have to worry about the 8 salt fruit trees in the space because there are bees to pollinate them.

But the two trees planted on the farm are not the same and need to be pollinated manually.

Lu Yuan personally took a small brush made of duck feathers and gently brushed each flower.

Although every flower was pollinated, the total number of fruits produced by the two trees was only about sixty.

Some of these sixty or so fruits will fall off later, and it is estimated that there will not be many left hanging on the tree when they are finally ripe.

When the fruits on the salt fruit trees grew to the size of grapes, Gu Yuanping notified Han Ying and Lu Yuan to visit the salt factory.

To their surprise, the salt factory was located on the seaside.

It was the villa area where Han Ying and Lu Yuan went to search for treasure in Lu Yuan’s basement shortly after they arrived in Jiangcheng.

That time, the two men looted Lu Yuan's basement, which was where Lu Xuan left the supplies as a retreat.

Shortly afterwards, they anonymously leaked the news that there might be supplies in the basement of the villa area to the authorities.

As for when the authorities went to search for supplies, the two were not sure.

The basement in that villa area is very well preserved, so it makes sense that Gu Yuanping would build the salt factory there.

The two drove out of the farm in an RV, with Kozin driving in front to lead the way.

When we arrived at the beach, all we saw was two or three meters thick snow.

Except for some passages, the snow was piled very high along the entire seashore.

There are soldiers patrolling the beach all the time. According to Kozin, the team responsible for patrolling the beach is replaced every half a month, and they live in some basements on the beach.

Standing on the beach, looking over there, you can see small black dots in the distance.

Those little black dots are people from Penglai Base. They are working here.

Normally, the main task is to compact the snow that is delivered from near to far.

So the two of them stood on the roof of the RV and could see someone dumping piles of snow into the sea.

The snow was too heavy. It had been snowing for more than a year, and the snow shoveled every day had already filled up the large and small lakes and rivers in Jiangcheng.

People are worried that if the temperature rises in the future, the melting snow will flood Jiangcheng, so they dare not store too much snow.

So the extra snow can only be sent into the sea.

But the snow that is sent into the sea will not be drinkable after it melts in the future.

He jumped off the RV and continued driving forward.

The further we drove, the thicker the snow became.

The salt factory was built beneath these piles of snow.

Although the snow here is thick, the surface layer must be cleaned off every once in a while, otherwise if the basement collapses, the entire salt factory will be ruined.

The entrance to the salt works is just beneath the snow.

Passing through an ice door covered with thick snow, Han Ying, Lu Yuan and Tang Yuan followed Ke Qin and walked gradually underground.

The salt factory did borrow the structure of the basement, but it simply connected the basements of several houses, reinforced it and made some modifications.

The entire salt factory is divided into five parts: material area, processing area, finished product area, finished product warehouse and living area.

Kozin did not give them much information about the uses of these areas of the salt factory.

Anyway, as long as you know what area it is, you will know what it is used for.

Kozin did not mention anything about recruiting workers.

Han Ying and Lu Yuan didn't ask either.

Because both of them could guess that they might be planning to use prisoners to work secretly here and not be allowed to go out easily.

However, if we use prisoners for forced labor, we must also send a team of armed soldiers to suppress them, otherwise we will not be able to control those people.

They didn't stay in the salt factory for long. After looking around for about half an hour, they went straight back to the farm.

It was already past four in the afternoon when we returned to the farm, but the sky today seemed a little darker than usual.

Normally it would be this dark around five o'clock, but today it was dark an hour earlier.

However, people on the farm usually use underground passages, so whether it is dark or not has little impact on them.

But when working, you have to light the kerosene lamp hanging on the iron shed pillar to make it easier to work.

When we got off work at 5:30, it was already completely dark. No one expected it to get dark so early today, so many people who had originally planned to go to the mall gave up the idea.

It was already past six o'clock when Han Ying and her friends drove back to Hongmei Village.

Everyone was tired and hadn't eaten yet. Before going upstairs, they picked up a bundle of firewood, said goodbye, and went home to cook.

After returning home, they added firewood as usual, and then they took the dog into the space.

The second batch of fruits on the eight salt fruit trees that were dug up from Qingcheng in the space have grown to the size of grapes.

As for the newly planted salt fruit trees, they have only grown to about 30 centimeters, and it will probably take nearly a month for them to bloom.

After looking at the salt fruit trees, the two were about to find a tree with more beautiful flowers so that they could set the table and start eating.

But at this time Tangyuan actually came close to Han Ying, humming and biting her trouser leg.

Han Ying knew that Tangyuan wanted her to go with it.

"Where to go?"

Han Ying followed the dog and saw it heading towards the villa.

Out of curiosity, Lu Yuan followed behind.

Wang!

Tangyuan finally stopped in front of the small tree where the mutant kumquats were grown.

Seeing where the dog stopped, Han Ying and Lu Yuan looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Could it be that the mutant kumquats have matured?

When the two discovered this mutant kumquat, it was only 5 cm tall, with a grape-sized fruit hanging on it.

The scene was indeed a bit funny at the time, but the mutant kumquat became very powerful after being eaten by the dog.

It also gives the dog's blood a brief regenerative power.

Therefore, Han Ying also drew several tubes of blood from it and stored them.

Later, when the mutant kumquat tree grew to 30 centimeters in height, it bloomed again and produced two fruits next to each other.

Han Ying and Lu Yuan watered it with nutrient solution every two days, but it still grew very slowly.

After such a long wait, has it finally matured?

The two men walked around the dog and looked at the mutant kumquat tree that was only 30 cm tall.

The two mutant kumquats above have already turned an attractive golden color.

It's time to pick!

Han Ying reached out and picked two mutant kumquats. They were just like the one she had given to the dog before. They were chewy and bouncy, and contained no seeds except juice.

Handing a mutant kumquat to Lu Yuan, Han Ying took out a set of tables and chairs, sat down on them, and then took out the blood drawing device and placed it on the table.

"Will you eat first or should I?"

Han Ying took out the things and asked Lu Yuan.

There is a brief period of regenerative power after eating, so the blood should be drawn and stored as soon as possible.

Therefore, it is more convenient to draw blood if two people eat it one after the other.

The most important thing is that Han Ying doesn’t know how to draw blood.

Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Let me go first."

Although I have eaten this mutated kumquat glutinous rice ball once, these two were produced later.

Different batches may not be 100% effective.

So to be on the safe side, Lu Yuan decided to eat first.

After Lu Yuan finished speaking, he threw the mutant kumquat into his mouth.

It melts in the mouth, and the mutant kumquat turns directly into liquid and flows into the throat.

After waiting for about a minute, Lu Yuan felt that his whole body was full of strength, and the cells in his body seemed to be wriggling rapidly.

Some of the small scars on his body have disappeared, and his whole body is radiant with vitality from the inside out.

Lu Yuan knew that the time was now.

Han Ying had already prepared the blood drawing device. She took off her coat, rolled up her sleeves, and inserted the blood drawing needle directly into the blood vessel.

The dark red blood flows through the tube into the prepared vial.

Han Ying prepared 8 small bottles for each of them, each holding 50 ml.

The total is 400 ml.

This amount of blood drawn may be a bit too much under normal circumstances, but at this moment both of them have strong regenerative powers, and the blood drawn can be restored quickly.

Therefore, for the sake of future life safety, it is wise to draw more now to be prepared.
