Black technology: a super empire spanning two worlds

Chapter 189 [Surprise]

Xiao Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and couldn't help but think emotionally: "It's really a serious sin, it's inhumane, billions of people died because of such a horrific man-made disaster..."

After learning the truth, Xiao Yu felt that if he were a native of the Blue Star world, he would definitely rebel without hesitation.

After a moment, Yan Lingjun skipped the topic. She turned her head and looked at Xiao Yu and said, "By the way, what's the matter with you contacting me this time?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yu put away his thoughts, looked at her and smiled, "Of course it's a good thing."

Yan Lingjun was overjoyed: "You have secured the food supply? That's 200 million tons per year!"

Xiao Yu smiled mysteriously, and then said: "Come on, I'll take you to see something."

After saying that, Xiao Yu stood up and motioned Yan Lingjun to follow him. Seeing Xiao Yu like this, Yan Lingjun was also full of expectations.

Half an hour later, Xiao Yu brought Yan Lingjun to a storage center in the southwest corner of Fengquan City. This was a plan that had been made before contacting her, and it was not something that they had joined Prism Company, and the company's general manager Luo Guanqi didn't know about it.

"These grains..." Yan Lingjun followed Xiao Yu into the warehouse, looked around and then turned to look at Xiao Yu.

"I brought about ten tons this time." Xiao Yu said with a smile.

Yan Lingjun looked at the grain in front of him again, and was somewhat disappointed to learn that there were only about 10 tons. He came here with high expectations, but the result was far below his expectations.

This amount of food is not enough for consumption. Compared with 200 million tons, it is just a fraction.

Xiao Yu glanced at Yan Lingjun and saw that she was silent. It seemed that he had guessed something. He smiled and said, "Are you a little disappointed? Don't be anxious. This is not for you to eat."

Hearing this, Yan Lingjun looked at him in confusion: "What do you mean?"

But as soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to have guessed something, and immediately looked at Xiao Yu with unusual joy and asked, "Are you saying that these grains are seeds?"

Xiao Yu nodded with a smile on his face, and immediately replied: "Yes, these 10 tons are all food crop seeds, and they all have the ability to reproduce."

Obviously, these 10 tons of grain seeds were exactly what Xiao Yu had instructed his butler Qin Yue to arrange for purchase, and now they were directly transported by him to the Blue Star World.

After hearing this, Yan Lingjun was overjoyed when she got the exact answer from Xiao Yu. However, she immediately glared at Xiao Yu unhappily and said in a disgruntled tone, "You just left your words half-said to stir up my emotions..."

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Let's not talk about whether it's provocative or not, just tell me whether it's a surprise or not."

Looking at the seeds placed in the front warehouse again, Yan Lingjun couldn't help but smile. He was so happy that he couldn't hide it. He was so surprised.

Xiao Yu added: "The seeds here are mainly grains, all of which are used for planting. This is to indirectly fulfill the original promise. In addition to the staple grains, there are also many seeds of fruits and vegetables."

Yan Lingjun walked forward with great joy, picked up a handful of grain seeds, and said to himself, "That's great!"

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Two million tons of grain is too large to be transported in a short period of time. It is mainly a safety issue. It will take some time to plan and prepare to ensure safe transportation. So this time, I first tried to get 10 tons of grain seeds."

The main reason is that Cyera-AI, the company founded by Xiao Yu's stand-in Peter Vitas, has not grown rapidly. He is currently actively preparing for Cyera-AI to enter the U.S. stock market and make his stand-in Peter Vitas quickly become a super rich man.

This is not something that can be done in a day or two, and it will take time to prepare food supplies. Two million tons of food is not a small amount. Peter Vitas cannot only get two million tons of food under the pretext of charity and humanitarianism, not to mention that Xiao Yu promised to provide food supplies to the Red Tide Organization for a long time in the future.

But relatively speaking, it is much easier to get 10 tons of grain seeds. The quantity is not large, and it is also convenient to transport them to the Blue Star world.

At this time, Yan Lingjun, with a face full of joy, turned to look at Xiao Yu and said, "In the long run, these 10 tons of grain seeds are more strategically valuable than 200 million tons of grain supplies. They are not only grain seeds, but also the seeds of this revolutionary cause. The organization will be greatly excited when they hear this news."

"With these 10 tons of crop seeds that can be reproduced, I believe it won't be long before the Red Tide Organization can solve the long-standing shortage of food supplies and achieve food self-sufficiency."

Xiao Yu immediately said in an orderly manner: "Don't worry, once I have dealt with some more resistance, there will be more grain seeds."

After hearing this and learning that there would be more supplies of grain seeds in the future, Yan Lingjun was even more surprised.

She looked at the grain seeds in the warehouse again and said thoughtfully, "With these grain crop seeds, we can distribute them to civilians in the controlled areas and let them plant them. This will realize your previous vision. This is crucial to rallying people's hearts. This revolutionary cause is likely to usher in an unprecedented historical turning point."

Obviously, Yan Lingjun has made great progress since he accepted Xiao Yu's ideological indoctrination and learned a lot of valuable struggle experience.

She also knew how strategically important these fertile grain crop seeds were to the revolutionary cause of the Red Tide Organization.

Over the years, the team has always been difficult to grow rapidly because it is difficult to gain the support of the majority of civilians. The biggest reason for this is that following you, even eating synthetic starch is a luxury, let alone having enough food and freedom.

It is naturally extremely difficult to get support. After all, not everyone has lofty awareness and ideals, and realizing ideals requires the support of the majority of people.

But once we have seeds of grain crops that are capable of reproduction, things will be very different.

By distributing food crops to civilians for planting, they will not only be able to eat enough, but also eat well. Compared with the hard-to-swallow artificial starch, a bowl of rice will be considered a delicacy.

The key is food freedom, which undoubtedly has a huge appeal among the civilians in the Blue Star world.

Finally, Xiao Yu slowly said: "These grain seeds, among which the rice seeds need to be paid attention to. These seeds can be planted, but the crops grown cannot be used as self-retained seeds for the next round of planting."

Yan Lingjun, who was originally overjoyed, was stunned for a moment, then he quickly asked, "Can we only plant once?"

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Don't be impatient. Just listen to me. These rice seeds have been selected through hybridization to select the ones with the highest yield. The next generation of self-retained seeds can of course be planted, but the yield will not be as high as the first generation. It may drop by one-third, or even less, but it may also be more. In short, there are uncertainties."

Yan Lingjun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and then Yan Zhan smiled and said, "That's not a big problem. As long as the breeding ability is not locked at the genetic level, even if the yield of the second generation of self-retained seeds is halved, it is acceptable. This is a situation we never dared to imagine before."

Xiao Yu said: "Your scientists can then select and cultivate the best ones, and I will continue to provide you with the best crop seeds."

"Hmm..." Yan Lingjun nodded slightly, looked at Xiao Yu with a smile and said, "Thank you for taking such a big risk to support this revolutionary cause. I believe the turning point of history has begun at this moment."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu couldn't help but smile: "Mutual achievement is good. I didn't lose anything, right? Not only did I get what I needed, but I also got the beauty unexpectedly. This is definitely a big win."
