I saved the earth by planting in the end times

Chapter 150 Salt Lake
The next campsite for the group is the Karta Salt Lake, which is also one of the purposes of this visit to the Northwest.

The population of Rising Sun Base is increasing, and the demand for salt is increasing. Most of the salt collected and exchanged by the base after the end of the world has been consumed.

Since ancient times, salt and iron have been extremely important strategic materials, and their importance is self-evident.

As a necessity to ensure good health, long-term lack of salt will lead to neurasthenia, abnormal muscle contraction, electrolyte imbalance in the body, headache, vomiting, muscle weakness and other symptoms.

There used to be a lot of well salt in Rong Province, but after the earthquake, most of the salt wells disappeared. The remaining one or two salt wells were not enough to supply hundreds of thousands of people. Just reserve.

Before the end of the world, Karta Salt Lake was one of the three major salt lakes in China.

Although a major earthquake may bring some changes to the salt lake, it is impossible for such a large salt lake to disappear.

The convoy marched for another two days. Yan Xiaomi, Mu Ye, and the others who were walking in the front turned over a low mound, and saw a bright and dazzling snow-white like a mirror.

There are seven or eight square kilometers of Karta Salt Lake in a hundred accumulative feet. There are not only lakes, but also undulating snow mountains. No, they are two 30-meter-high salt mountains.

When Yan Xiaomi saw the Salt Lake for the first time, he was shocked by its beauty.

Against the gray and gloomy sky, the immaculate white salt lake is as clean as a silky and dazzling white brocade, and one cannot bear to touch it with dusty hands.

The soldiers cheered and jumped out of the car, and many soldiers who had never seen the salt lake rushed to the lake on the snow-white salt ground, dipped their hands in some lake water to taste, and all were so salty that they spit it out quickly.

Originally, Yan Xiaomi also wanted to taste how salty the water in the salt lake would be. Seeing them like that, she decisively gave up the idea just now.

Looking at the salt lake from a distance, it is white and flawless, but when you look closer, the salt is actually off-white.

The accompanying team doctor took out special testing equipment and took samples of salt water and salt grains on the shore to test several places. It was confirmed that the salt here contained only a small amount of virus, and it could be eaten after being processed and refined.

You can eat it.

Wu Yu asked everyone to quickly take out their tools and hurry up to work. With so much salt, even if a small part of it is taken away, it will be enough for the base to store for several years.

The salt grains and salt blocks all over the ground do not require much effort to mine. Some of the soldiers are responsible for digging, and some are responsible for filling them into big bags. Once the bag is full, it will be stored in the space button.

Compared with fishing in the lake, it is much easier to dig salt blocks on the salt ground by the lake, and it is also easier to transport and store.

Yan Xiaomi wandered around the salt lake, chose a salt land that looked relatively clean, promised a lot of benefits, and lured the fat fat brother Mimi and Huzi to work as coolies.

These four guys are huge and powerful, with sharp and sharp claws, and they can dig out large pieces of salt stone with one claw, and each piece weighs twenty or thirty catties.

The four animals waved their front paws and flew with all eight paws. The speed was not slower than the soldiers at all, and their working efficiency was excellent. Yan Xiaomi and Yan Liang only had to follow behind to pick them up.

While chatting, the Yan family brothers and sisters picked up large chunks of salt stones behind the four. The two of them didn't even bother to pack the bags, and each had a special space button for salt, and threw them directly into the space.

In half a day, the two space buttons of more than 500 square meters were filled. Yan Xiaomi looked at the other side of the lake, and the soldiers were still working in full swing.

"Brother, let's go home to eat and rest for a while, your stomach is not good, you have to eat on time and take care of yourself."

Yan Liangzheng was having a great time doing it, and he didn't want to stop at all. While bending over to pick up salt, he raised his head and smiled and said to her: "If you are tired, go back and rest for a while, a big man is not tired."

"So much salt has been dug up, no matter how many more people in our family can eat it all in this lifetime, besides, the salt won't run away here, it's not too late for us to do it after eating." Yan Xiaomi persuaded helplessly. road.

With a smile on his face, he dug out a piece of salt that the fat guy had just dug out, which weighed seventy to eighty catties, reached out and touched Yan Liang, who put it in the space button, and said without lifting his head, "It's rare for us to come here, we must hurry up and spend more time." Get some, you don’t need it yourself, you can take it out to exchange for supplies.”

My sister said that the people from their family and the base don't need to hand over the things they find to the base, as much as they get belongs to their own family, so of course they have to work hard to get more.

Therefore, there is a reason for Yan Xiaomi's personality of always pulling at home every good thing he sees. If there is a brother like him, there must be a sister like him.

Seeing that he couldn't be persuaded, Yan Xiaomi simply took out a handful of space buttons and stuffed it for him, and went home to cook first, and asked him to eat when it was ready.

On the other side of the lake, Wu Yu also arranged for more than a dozen soldiers to take out the pots and light a fire to cook, and the others continued to work. They only planned to stay here for three days, and naturally they wanted to get as much salt as possible to go back.

Mu Ye asked people to bring three excavators. Mechanical operations are naturally more efficient than manual excavation. A salt mountain with a height of more than 20 meters was planed out in one day. In addition, the soldiers dug dozens of tons manually on the shore of the lake. , the harvest is very good.

At night, the salt lake blew a cold wind, and the air seemed to have become salty. The three excavators were still working "clang clang", and the people who drove the machines took turns to rest, and the machines did not stop.

After dinner, while Xiong Gui and Wu Yu were resting, Yan Liang asked them to teach martial arts and shooting. Mu Ye willingly became a training partner in order to gain favor with his future uncle.

Although Yan Liang had been defeated by Mu Ye's hands ten times in sparring, it made him accept Mu Ye by two points.

Today's younger sister has too many things in her hands. This man himself is powerful, strategizing and resourceful, and he manages a base of tens of 10 people, so he has enough ability to protect his younger sister.

From recent observations, it seems that this man has a heart for his sister, but I hope he can stand the test of time and interests, and don't have any bad plans for his sister, otherwise...

Yan Xiaomi found a piece of land far away, took out mutated bamboos and planted them, and rewarded Fat Da and Fat Brother with many fresh and tender bamboo shoots from the crystal nucleus. up.

Mimi and Huzi each ate a large pot of mutated animal meat cooked by the owner, and now they were walking catwalks with their stomachs shy, strolling leisurely by her side to digest their food.

While the four animals seem to be leisurely, their eyes scan the surrounding wilderness with warning from time to time.

The mutant beast lurking in the darkness, ready to move, felt the powerful coercion of the four beasts, and chose to lie dormant for a while, waiting for the right time to act.

Unconsciously, Yan Xiaomi fed the two pandas and took them home to rest. Mimi told Yan Xiaomi that there were many mutant beasts around, so she had to be more vigilant at night.

It may be that the day was too busy and peaceful, which made her relax a bit. After being reminded by Mimi, Yan Xiaomi observed carefully before noticing that there were occasional black shadows flashing in the darkness.

Looking at the excavator at work, as well as the large white salt flats and lakes around, she decided to release the elephant herd first to temporarily deter these mutant beasts.

After two days, they have almost finished digging the salt, and then clean up those ferocious mutant beasts, so as not to pollute the salt lake.
