End of World's Businessman

The mutated bugs have multiplied until now, and they have become more and more prone to gigantism. Slowly, the survivors discovered that in addition to the useful parts of the mutant bugs, some of the meat of the bugs can also be eaten.Among them, there are a few types of bugs with very low combat effectiveness, but the quality of the meat is surprisingly delicious, and the taste and nutritional value are not inferior to the mutant meat.

These kinds of bugs are collectively called meat bugs by the survivors.

Meat worms live on vegetarian food and grow rapidly. However, precisely because of their high nutritional value and low combat effectiveness, they are also classified as food among the mutated worm population.Therefore, despite the rapid reproduction and growth of these meat insects, they are still very rare.

According to the information provided by the system, in the higher cosmic world, these meat worms are one of the main materials for making ordinary nutrients. Many companies and private individuals even build insect factories to breed these meat worms.Not only these meat worms, but also the silver beetles that can secrete mithril, the worms that can produce isolated alloy raw materials, etc. are being raised artificially.Of course, the quality of the alien organisms produced by artificially bred insects will be much worse than wild ones.

Wu Ye has eaten the meat of these meat worms, and also eaten the nutritional supplements of the system brand. Since the taste of the nutritional supplements is really against the sky, he is skeptical of the system's claims, but he has some doubts about the artificial breeding of mutated bugs proposed by the system. Interested.

For the current survivors, beetles like the silver beetle and the beetle on the continent of Europa have too high combat effectiveness and are difficult to control, so they will not be considered for the time being.But meat worms are born with low combat effectiveness, gentle temperament, and fast reproduction and growth, which is much lower than the cost of raising livestock and poultry. They can completely reproduce to solve the meat problem of the survivors of Lancheng. In addition, the nutrition of this meat worm The value is high, and using it to raise mutant animals and contract animals can greatly reduce the cost.

But there is also a bad thing, these meat worms are very damaging to the environment. They are vegetarians, but the scene of no grass left after the swarms of insects is really not suitable for Lancheng, which has a well-developed planting industry.Besides, there is also a willful and bad-tempered Tree of Life in Lancheng. Given how much it loves insects, if these fleshy insects are kept in Lancheng, they may not have a chance to grow up at all.

After some consideration, Wu Ye decided to put this breeding base next to Qingmin County.

Most of the people living in Qingmin County are special fusion infected persons, but not all non-infected persons exist.The infected people came all the way to Lancheng in search of an antidote, and many of them didn't think about going back to their original settlements when they came. Therefore, those who have family members brought their family members here as much as possible.

Now Qin Wuhua is equivalent to isolating these infected people outside Lancheng in a disguised form, and those non-infected people who are unwilling to leave their families naturally also go to Qingmin County. There are not many people in this group, but there are nearly 10 people in total. million people.Qingmin County is different from Lancheng. There are no planting areas, no factories, and no projects under construction. As a qualified businessman, how can Er Shao watch so many cheap laborers idle there?

It is not difficult to raise meat worms. They live on plants and have strong vitality. As long as the environment where they grow is kept clean, they hardly get sick.

It takes several hours to drive between Lancheng and Qingmin County. It is not cost-effective to mobilize forage and grain from Lancheng to raise these meat worms. Therefore, Wu Ye plans to let people plant high-yield mutant crops directly in the satellite city , to feed meat worms.

Under the birth of the tree of life, there are many mutated crops in Lancheng. Among them, sweet potatoes and potatoes have the highest yields, and these two plants happen to be the second favorite food of meat worms.

After this power competition, Wu Ye also made a lot of money, investing in a small satellite city as a breeding base for meat worms, the second young master Hao said that we are not short of money.

Ji Chong invested with Wu Ye in the past two years, and made a lot of money. When he heard that Wu Ye was going to invest in building a breeding base for meat worms, he immediately came forward and said cheekily that he also wanted to invest in a stock.

Wu Ye is usually either too busy or too lazy to die. Although he decided to open up a satellite city to raise meat worms with great interest, he really can't spare the time and energy to manage it. Ji Chong let him in if he wants to buy a share, just because he lacks someone to help him management people.

After getting along for so long, Wu Ye is very clear that Ji Chong has completely inherited the advantages of his parents. Although his character is occasionally unreliable, he is very talented in economic management.Under his management, a large plantation in Lancheng has not had any major troubles. Although he loves money, he has always adhered to the good habit of obtaining it in a proper way, and asked him to help manage the property. Wu Ye and Qin Wuhua felt relieved.

More importantly, it seems that Ji Chong is only in charge of the plantations and farms in Lancheng, but in fact, he holds the sales channels of the entire grain and materials in Lancheng. With these resources, the development of Meatworm The outlook will undoubtedly be a step up.

To open up a brand-new satellite city, it is necessary to select a site, dispatch materials, mobilize manpower, etc., each of which is costly and labor-intensive.Ji Chong happily joined the stake, and after the development of the satellite city fell on him alone, it was the nth time that he felt that Wu Xiaoye's baby face was so annoying!He was definitely tricked by Wu Xiaoye again, bastard (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

Wu Ye's excuse for slipping away was quite aboveboard, and the euphemistic name was looking for bugs.

The economic value of meat worms is high, and their reproductive ability is also strong, but they often have not grown enough to be eaten by their kind as food. Finding enough meat worms to reproduce is really not as easy as I thought.

Not only did Wu Ye take his personal guards out to look for it, but he also sent missions to the Corpse Hunters Union to mobilize the corpse hunters to follow along.

The corpse hunters who have eaten meat worms occasionally have not forgotten the delicious taste of meat worms. When they heard that the city lord decided to open up a satellite city to artificially breed meat worms, many people felt that they were one step closer to eating meat every day. Many or people with ulterior motives expressed concern about Wu Ye's cultivation of mutated insects. Some people in Lancheng even secretly rumored that Wu Ye might want to follow in the footsteps of the Li family.

In order to control the situation in Lancheng, Qin Wuhua established a special intelligence department long ago. Now that the intelligence department is becoming more and more perfect, these rumors have not had time to spread in Lancheng. He was even kicked out of Lancheng.

Worried that Wu Ye will let people do human and worm gene experiments like the Li family, okay, let's not wait on it, and fall in love with where to come and go.

Excluding those nails with ulterior motives, most people in Lancheng are very optimistic about Wu Ye's move.The current meat in Lancheng can basically meet the daily needs, but this "need" is only for those who can afford meat. Many people, especially ordinary survivors, have to save a long time to have a tooth festival. How could they not support cheap and delicious meat?

After Lancheng passed, there was a supernatural power contest, and then there was rumor of siege. More than [-]% of the supernatural beings who came to participate in the competition stayed. By coincidence, they chose to register as a citizen of Lancheng, and of course also registered as a corpse hunter in Lancheng.

And this time, the number of supernatural beings who came to Lancheng to participate in the competition is also unprecedented, with more than 100 people.

With so much combat power all of a sudden, the task of collecting meat worms became smoother.

The size of meat worms is not too big. Adults are generally about ten catties, and larvae are often only about one catty. The newly opened satellite city buys insect species at a uniform price of 200 credits per catty regardless of adults and larvae. Converted into crystal nuclei, it is equivalent to 40. It's crystal clear, it's completely comparable to the price of some mutated beast meat. Compared with the ferocious and bloodthirsty mutated beasts, the soft, fat, slow-moving meat worms are as cute and harmless as angels.

According to this price, catching an adult meat worm can sell at least three or four hundred crystals, and meat worms have a gregarious property, and once they are found, there are often at least 20 of them. If you have a lucky team, you can catch them at once. Hundreds of adult meat worms are a small fortune, much easier than hunting zombies.

Meat worms like a warm and humid environment, and the place where Lancheng is located is very suitable for their habits. Therefore, as long as you are willing to look for it, you will not be fruitless.

It only took a month for the satellite city to harvest more than a hundred thousand meat worms. The mutated sweet potatoes and potatoes transplanted from Lancheng have taken root and multiplied rapidly, but it will take some time before the harvest. For the time being, they ate the food delivered by Lancheng.

The purchase of meat worms, the development of satellite cities, the purchase of meat worm feed, workers' wages, etc., added up the messy expenses, and consumed nearly 2 million credit points of Wu Ye in one go.

However, the effect is also obvious. The meat worm reproduces very fast. Under the condition of suitable temperature and sufficient food, the female usually lays eggs once a month, and the number of eggs laid each time is between 10-30. It takes only two months to grow into adults, and the growth rate is very fast.Of course, with the fast growth, the lifespan of meat worms is very short, usually only about 2 years.Once the meat worms die naturally, their meat will become very unpalatable, and may even be slightly poisonous.

Therefore, the breeders in satellite cities not only need to be responsible for feeding these meat worms, but also have to pay close attention to the lifespan of these meat worms to ensure that they are eaten within the optimal time.

Time flies quickly in the busy, and three months have passed in a blink of an eye.

The first batch of worm eggs born in the satellite city also grew into adults. The workers who gradually learned about the habits of the meat worms picked out some of the meat worms that must enter the edible stage, butchered them for meat, and sent them back to Lancheng for sale.

The meat worms have a high rate of meat production. A standard adult meat worm weighing 10 jin can get 8 jin of meat.There is not much worm meat that the worm factory can sell now. After Ji Chong surveyed the market, he tentatively decided to sell it back to the survivors of Lancheng at a price of 100 credits. This price is cheaper than high-quality pork, and many people are willing to pay for it. Money has a fresh taste.

Meatworm meat is delicious and tender, suitable for many cooking methods. Few people who have eaten it say that it is not delicious, but Wu Ye's mouth is so sticky. After eating worm meat for a week, I don't feel tired, let alone other survivors. the ones.

Soon, the meat worm consumer market in Lancheng was opened, and other large settlements probably saw business opportunities, and they tried to feed meat worms one after another.Some people have developed well and have been successfully fed, while others have just spent a lot of money to buy the insect species, and the mutated insects are completely wiped out by the scourge in the next moment.

Anyway, with Lancheng taking the lead, the survivors also had a cheap and nutritious ration.

Although the investment in the insect factory was huge, Wu Ye never worried that he would not be able to repay the capital. After Ji Chong became a shareholder, he basically never worried about the insect factory.In the beginning, he took his personal guards to look for worm species for a few days, but later his energy was completely devoted to another matter.

A major event that was recorded in the annals of history and celebrated for thousands of years for future generations.
