food crisis [end times]

Yuan Shuo also has a mother whose whereabouts are unknown, but he can so simply hand over such equipment to An Wei, which also shows that the relationship between him and his mother is not good, and even in this world, they still do not communicate with each other.

An Wei didn't ask in depth. Regarding the family background, he, Yuan Shuo, Xiang Luo and Zhu Yan, the four of them were all in a mess, and they couldn't explain it all.

But it is also true that such a world can truly be carefree.If it involves too much, it will be endless.

Anwei finally got back to the point, and said to Yuan Shuo, "I can do this, but can he contact you?"

It's a human thing.

Yuan Shuo shook his head: "I spend a lot of time on missions, and I can't get in touch when I'm on missions. And I don't know when I will be transferred. I will try to stay here as much as possible. If I can have a regular contact someday, I will contact you again." for you."

Then Yuan Shuo took other things. Below was a bag of canned food, which was canned beef and ham.All of them are army green, obviously army rations.At the bottom is a book of wilderness survival tips and some other vacuum-packed treats.Beef jerky, pickled peppers, chicken feet, and spicy strips are all available.

These supermarkets were sold out at the beginning of the end of the world, and it seems that they were also officially distributed.

Yuan Shuo is a special police officer, the risk of carrying out tasks is greater than that of ordinary police officers, so the treatment is naturally better.

"I can't eat so much of the supplies that are usually distributed, so I sent them to you."

These, if you take out any thing in this world, there is a price but no market.

Especially canned beef and ham, which were not commonly eaten in the past.

Of course Anwei understands the value: "I can't have this!"

"It's useless for me to keep it." Yuan Shuo just couldn't bear to eat it and sent it to Anwei.

Anwei still shook his head: "You should eat more of these to replenish your strength when you go out to perform missions. Besides, we have all of them, and we don't lack them. There are also fresh meats."

……

Yuan Shuo shot an arrow in the heart.

These are very precious things in the pile of people who eat national food, and they don't lack them at home!

Zhu Yan saw that Anwei had shaken out his family fortune just like that, rubbed his nose and made up for it: "I was in this business before, so when something happened, I only sold a part of the goods, and I sent some over here for future use. Unexpectedly, I didn’t expect to bet on the right one.”

Yuan Shuo looked at Zhu Yan, and from his experience, he could tell that Zhu Yan was lying.No matter how clever a lie is, it cannot hide from their well-trained eyes.

But what's the point of lying?If you want to live a prosperous life in this world, you will more or less have some trump cards.

As long as he didn't do anything unreasonable and asked him to catch him, he didn't care about Dunton abalone or lobster.

"Well, it belongs to your brother too. I gave these to you alone." Even good buddies will definitely feel uncomfortable when they live under the fence.Yuan Shuo could tell that An Wei was doing well.This body looks strong and fleshy, and it is healthier and more complex than most people in the current world.

Although he was so angry that he doubted his life, Yuan Shuo was very happy to see him like this.

"You can't ask for that." Yuan Shuo glared at An Wei, and muttered, "You can't take the police uncle's stitches."

Zhu Yan almost laughed out loud, turned around and saw Xiang Luo waving at the door.Zhu Yan took a look at the two of them, so he was no longer a light bulb.

Since they couldn't go to Luo Changsheng's house, the two continued to go back to make fungus bags.The sales of this fungus package are like running water, and the family is hoarding more and more food.

Find a chance to buy something useful with the official.Otherwise, putting so much is a waste of space.

The food in the basement should not be moved as much as possible now.Everything you eat now is newly earned.I will eat a little coarse grains in the evening for three meals a day, which is nutritious and healthy without gaining weight.

Mix the new ingredients well, and give the bacteria bag time to wake up.

Xiang Luo dug out an out-of-stock chicken from the refrigerator, chopped it a few times and threw it into the pot with potatoes, and then grabbed a handful of vermicelli and threw it in. This is the most common way of eating in the village, and it is also the most delicious. tireless.

I don't know what was said on the other end, and Yuan Shuo was about to leave in a while.

Xiang Luo opened his mouth and stayed for a while: "The meal is ready, let's stay and eat."

The air was filled with the smell of meat, even Yuan Shuo couldn't help swallowing.

He still shook his head and said, "No, I'm afraid of delaying the mission time, so I will go back first."

Anwei thought about asking him to wait.

He went back to the house to search for something he could give back to Yuan Shuo.No matter how short he is, it is impossible for him to take people's things with peace of mind.Always return something when you take something.But when he came here in a hurry, there was nothing in this house that belonged entirely to him.Although he had tinkered with some things, Yuan Shuo might have harmed him by taking away technology-related things.

After thinking about it, the only pen An Wei can hold out is a pen.

He went out of the house with a pen in hand, and saw Yuan Shuo standing upright, waiting for him.

The memory of that year is already blurred.However, a high school student who was able to snatch women back then has now become a straight and strong special police officer. A lot of things must have happened during this process.

Walking over, Anwei handed the pen to Yuan Shuo: "This is a gift in return. I can't ask for your things for nothing. I have used this pen for several years. It was quite expensive when I bought it. I don't know how much it is worth now. It is not as good as What you brought is worth money, but that's all I have left."

Yuan Shuo looked at the pen.The cap is scuffed, obviously from common use.Although he said that he didn't use a pen, he could tell from the way An Wei held the pen that it should be very important to him.

Yuan Shuo was still thinking about it, but An Wei only thought that his gift was too light, and smiled embarrassedly: "Actually, this is not a good thing, if you don't like it..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yuan Shuo had already put his pen into his pocket.

"Then I'm leaving." Yuan Shuo looked at Anwei, "I'll come back after I finish my mission. If there is anything you want, I will send it to you if I can find it."

Anwei couldn't think of anything, let alone trouble others: "I don't lack anything in this house, uh... You'd better take care of yourself."

Anyway, if people in this world can come to visit him and give him so many things, Anwei won't embarrass him too much.

Yuan Shuo looked at Anwei, couldn't help but reached out and rubbed Anwei's hair: "Wait for me."

This action was a bit ambiguous, and before An Wei could react, Yuan Shuo had already turned around and strode away.

Anwei is a little bit inexplicable.Turning around to enter the room, I saw Zhu Yan leaning against the door frame with his shoulders in his arms.That posture is just short of grabbing a handful of melon seeds and watching the fun while eating them.

"Look at what?"

Zhu Yan joked: "If you develop fast enough, this will give you a love token?"

An Wei was taken aback, only then did he realize that it was a bit subtle to give away his usual pen.

Unconsciously, he said with a shy face: "I didn't mean that, isn't there nothing else to give? Besides, what are you afraid of for a man?"

Zhu Yan smiled and said nothing, but Anwei felt uncomfortable seeing his teasing expression, so he fought back: "You think everyone is like you and Brother Xiang, and seeing each other makes you feel bad."

Anwei drilled into the room, Zhu Yan raised his leg and kicked over: "Who's full of water!"

Anwei dodged it, and said with a smile, "Who knows what to say.

God knows how tortured it is for him to sit in the middle every day and watch the two bastards show their affection.

Zhu Yan sneered and continued to look at the sky.

The volcanic ash in the sky is getting lighter and weaker, and the sunlight is getting stronger and stronger.

It's just that it's getting hotter these days.

As smart as Zhu Yan, he naturally saw that Yuan Shuo was interested in Anwei.

However, based on his understanding of Anwei over the years, he couldn't understand it for a while.

It is impossible for Yuan Shuo to be by Anwei's side all the time.Here, how many possibilities there are for one entry and one exit depends on the fate of the individual.

Coincidentally, Yuan Shuo also left suddenly.Although Anwei had completely forgotten about him, he had disappeared from Anwei's life.

Not being remembered by An Wei is his retribution.

Zhu Yan was a little envious.

If only he could forget about it after Xiang Luo disappeared.

These five years will not be so painful.

But if I really forgot, I would be a little bit reluctant.

Looking back, seeing Xiang Luo lift the pot and turn the vegetables inside, the corners of Zhu Yan's lips curled up.

Anyway, time is still long.He has plenty of time to settle the account with Xiang Luo slowly.

Take it easy.

Xiang Luo, who had just put the lid on, sneezed and rubbed his nose, thinking that the weather has been hot recently, and he may have caught a cold because he wore less clothes for the cold.

If you really have a cold, you should stay away from Zhu Yan, because you will be infected by him.

The next day the temperature had already risen to thirty degrees.

It's just because the weather outside is heating up quickly, and the house is blocked by two layers of windows.Therefore, the indoor temperature is ten degrees lower than the outdoor temperature, which is the most comfortable time.

After Xiang Luo and Zhu Yan loaded the car, they still asked Anwei to look after the house.Anwei threw them two packs of spicy sticks sent by Yuan Shuo, and told them to pass the time on the way.

Xiang Luo hasn't touched this thing since the end of the world.After getting in the car, Zhu Yan opened it and the two of them shared the food.

I haven't touched Zhu Yan since high school, and I have long forgotten what it's like.

He took a bite, looked at the packaging and said, "Why did I forget to prepare this at the time."

Some snacks are prepared for Xiang Luo, but the spicy strips are a little less.Also gone soon.Zhu Yan has never touched this.In contrast, he prefers spicy beef jerky.

"If you didn't see it, it was all eaten by me and Anwei."

Spring is warm and the temperature is rising.There are only black and yellow land and dead trees on both sides of the road.

Not the slightest green, not the slightest vitality.

Compared with last winter, it is a bit dilapidated.

Super mold destroys all plants.After the snow has melted right now, except for the rain a few days ago, it has been dry until now.The sun in the sky became more and more obvious, and the sunlight became more and more intense.

If there is no more rain, the earth will be dry and cracked.

But the plants are all dead, so what is the use of this land?

To get to Luo Changsheng's house, you need to go through some other villages.

Xiang Luo walked through villages and saw too many people with yellow and emaciated faces.

It is different from the happy and full of hope in this village.Their complexion and spirits are very poor.Some of the older people, there are many people who are as thin as a bone.They sat on the rocks in front of their house, and even the passing cars made them unable to lift up their strength.

At first glance, he was someone who was waiting to die.

A child ran out of the house holding a piece of biscuit, gnawed it vigorously while running, and two adults chased after him, grabbed the child and grabbed the biscuit with him but failed to grab it, and finally just pressed the child on the ground and spanked.The child didn't seem to have heard of the pain in his buttocks, and just concentrated on nibbling the cake with no visible ingredients in his hand.

At present, most people still have surplus food, and the government is also racking its brains to subsidize and support the people.

But in such an environment, there are still hungry people.

And this is just the beginning.

Xiang Luo couldn't help but think of the line He Shen said in Tie Chi Ting Ya's Ji Xiaolan: "The hungry people can't be fed enough, no matter how much food you throw in it, it won't be enough."

The accumulation of wealth is nothing but throttling and increasing revenue.

The same is true for food.Throttling is impossible. If there is a restraint in the import, some people will starve to death.

Open source, this is the current problem facing the country.

Even though natural disasters and man-made disasters caused the country to lose a considerable population, the number of survivors is still a terrifying number.

In order to keep everyone fed, the once cost-effective staple food cannot be planted on a large scale due to mold.

This problem is quite difficult, not only in China, but also in the world.

The current production capacity of mushrooms and protein blocks is extremely limited.

But Xiang Luo couldn't think of how to go in the future.

It's useless for him to worry about it.

What he can do is to popularize mushroom growing as much as possible.The more you grow, the more people you can feed.Xiang Luo can also get something, why not do it?

More is what the leaders above want to think about.

This journey has seen a lot of flowers, and I have seen a lot, and my mentality has also changed.

Xiang Luo couldn't help looking at Zhu Yan, fearing that he would be affected, he said:

"You said that if everyone could grow mushrooms, wouldn't they be hungry?"

The cost of mushroom cultivation is low, and the nutrition is also rich.

"That also requires protein and carbohydrates. For protein, you can use protein cubes. But what about carbohydrates?" Zhu Yan raised his eyebrows.

"Then there are only genetically modified." Xiang Luo sighed, "It's just that I haven't heard of a genetically modified experiment that can be immune to this mold until now."

Genetically modified, this domestic proposition has been widely opposed.

No matter how many people endorse it, saying that it is just food, it will be broken down into nutrients when it enters the stomach, regardless of whether it is genetically modified or not.

But one thing, who will take the lead?

There are many people who guarantee genetically modified foods, but there are no people with high prestige and influence in the eyes of the people who take the lead in eating them.

Coupled with various folk horror legends about genetically modified, the boss's surname is all about genetically modified.

But now in this world, people are going to starve to death, who cares if it is genetically modified?

Even if there is any problem with eating, it is better than starving to death now.

"It should be soon." Zhu Yan pressed his middle finger against his temple, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said again, "Or, this mold is so powerful that even genetic immunity can't compete with it."

Plant transgenics are far less complex than animals, and the current global crop transgenic base is quite mature.

From last year to this year, several months have passed, why is it still silent?

"But if there is such a possibility, there is one more hope."

Zhu Yan smiled coldly: "It depends on whether the common people can wait until that day."

Zhu Yan's smile is not gloating. Facing such a desperate situation, if you don't want to cry, why can't you laugh?

I went to Luo Changsheng's house to give fungus bags. Luo Changsheng's family naturally laughed from ear to ear, but Xiang Luo didn't stay much, and left after saying a few words.

Once I couldn’t fit it at home, I had to make fungus packs.Coming here was also frightened by my uncle and aunt's urging marriage.

But when he went back, he found a military green off-road vehicle parked at the door, and there were people in military uniforms among the guards at the door.

Xiang Luo stopped the car for inspection, only to see the uncle on duty at the door smiling and said to Xiang Luo: "I don't know if you go out, but the superiors have sent us a squad of soldiers to help protect the village! They will take the lead in organizing the village from now on." Patrolling and standing guard, and also helping to train us! We will also be considered bird guns in the future, so there is nothing to be afraid of when regular troops come!"

Although the people in this village are united, they are in a state of disunity.Inexperienced in the face of people from other villages, the previous high-frequency patrols still allowed the robbers to succeed repeatedly because of Zhou Zhenxing's help.

And facing the people in the village, it is even more because they are afraid that the same village will know about it, and they don't want to make the prisoner too ugly.

So I faced an embarrassing situation where I couldn't do anything inside or outside.

If it weren't for the recent salary increase, the villagers would really not be willing to do this thankless business.

It's different this time with soldiers leading the team.

In fact, there were troops stationed in the village originally.It's just that due to special circumstances in the cold winter of last year, a large number of troops were sent to the border to guard the home.

Now this village can have the army to help, it should be the only one in the nearby villages.The main reason is that they are mushroom villages, and mushrooms are grown in the village, which can give new hope to all nearby villages.

Whether mushroom growing can be developed on a large scale depends on the village.

Xiang Yan and Zhou Tingting started making fungus packs for sale, and Li Baoguo reduced the number of fungus packs originally made by Xiang Luo and added new ones.The price of the first-class fungus bag made by Xiang Luo remains the same, while the fungus bag made by Xiang Yan and his daughter is second-class, and the price is a little cheaper.

Only the first-class bacterial packs can enjoy the compensation for infection. The sales generously admitted that the infection rate of the second-class bacterial packs is below 20.00%. If you buy such a bacterial pack, you can only consider yourself unlucky.

However, the price/performance ratio of the second-class mushroom packs is still a little higher than that of the villagers' homemade mushroom packs.In the end how to buy, or to see their own meaning.

Some people in the village went to Xiang Yan to learn from them, but they didn't understand why the infection rate of their own products was so high.Xiang Yan also generously made people watch, but the disinfection was quite thorough.

Some people have seen it and learned it at home. They have done enough disinfection, and the quality of the bacteria packs they make is indeed better, but they are still not as good as Xiang Yan's.

But seeing people do it face to face, it can't be said that they are hiding their clumsiness. In the past, they can only admit that their skills are not good enough.

Since word spread about the mushrooms planted in this village, it was soon known that the army was stationed here.

Compared with Shili Village, other villages are almost impossible to see.

In this way, naturally a large number of people sharpened their heads and wanted to move to the village here.

Similarly, some people in the city also came here after hearing the news.

Zhou Zhenhua held a meeting in the village and brought Xiang Luo with him.It's just that Xiang Luo didn't speak the whole time, and just listened to their back and forth discussions.

In the past, when people came, they would come, but now that the village is developing, and so many outsiders are rashly introduced into the village, what if there are some irreconcilable conflicts or other problems?Who can afford it?

But if they are not introduced to the village, there will indeed be fewer people in the village at present.

And to be more realistic, there are too few girls.The ratio of marriageable men and women is seriously unbalanced.If the village wants to develop for a long time, the most important thing is to thrive.How can there be so many young men who can't marry a daughter-in-law?

But it would be outrageous to say that only those with daughters in the family can come in.

The author has something to say: I know that you may not be happy to let the second aunt and son make fungus buns together, but you must understand one thing. This article is about the discovery of the whole village, and the whole village will change with the passage of time. growing stronger and stronger.If only the protagonist's family eats fruit from the beginning, I won't let the whole village grow mushrooms.

The outsourcing of bacteria packs is the only way to go. I chose Ergu because her situation and conditions are suitable. The protagonist will launch more products to enrich and develop in the future.
