Natural disasters are coming: the space is busy with stockpiling and farming

Chapter 116 Expedited Recruitment in Planting Areas

Liu Guoping touched his big, smooth head: "I still want to go to the research institute. I am usually busy enough cultivating seedlings.

Coupled with all the manpower needed to manage the growing areas, I am really overwhelmed.

If you can give me a special cultivation room and enough instruments, I believe I can cultivate more cold- and drought-resistant fruit and vegetable seedlings!"

Jiang Sheng nodded: "Okay, I still need to make some preparations in this regard, you can just study it with peace of mind in the future.

From now on, I will temporarily take over all the large and small matters in the planting area, so you don’t have to be so busy anymore.”

Liu Guoping happily returned to his slightly shabby little house, which was filled with books and various notes.

Any base manager with a longer-term vision will pay more attention to agricultural planting.

The supplies retrieved from outside the base will one day be consumed. When no food can be found, without enough grain storage, which base can survive?

Jiang Sheng took out a rocking chair from the space and placed it on the edge of the land.

"Captain Lu, can you help me go to the office area and make an announcement that the planting area is recruiting people, but they must have basic planting experience, be hard-working and able to endure hardships.

As for the salary, let’s pay it twice as much as it is now.

You need to be good but not overly qualified. There must be an inspection before joining the company, and those who fail will be kicked out directly."

After receiving the order, Lu Jiatong ran out quickly and came to the government affairs hall to publish the recruitment announcement.

She did not dare to ignore the order given by the base director himself, and even specifically said hello to the staff in the government affairs hall that this recruitment must be done with caution.

Jiang Sheng looked at the green seedlings in front of him and felt a little more relaxed.

The feeling of not having to run around anymore is really reassuring, although after arriving here, I have a burden that cannot be shied away from.

But the sense of belonging in my heart is irreplaceable no matter what.

Being able to build a dream home in the apocalypse with your own hands is quite a challenge.

It's fine if the base director doesn't do it. If he really shoulders the heavy responsibility, he must show his appearance.

While he was thinking secretly, Su Chen lifted the curtain of the shed and walked in while carrying the food box.

"How are you, my Jiangda Base Director? How was the inspection?"

He gently placed the food box on the small table and spoke jokingly.

Jiang Sheng rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Don't talk about it. As soon as I came in, I found a lot of fools. I asked Liu Shu to throw them out.

But it was thrown out too early, so there are not enough manpower, and we are recruiting urgently now."

She picked up a bowl of fragrant white rice. The lunch box on the next floor contained stir-fried rapeseed, peppers and eggs, and a plate of cold cucumbers.

These are all due to the mutated willow tree. With it, the vegetables in the hotel's backyard grow much faster, and their quality has also been greatly improved.

As Jiang Sheng ate the crispy cold cucumbers, he always felt that it would be better to give the willow tree a name. The name of the mutated willow tree was somewhat difficult to pronounce.

"Where did you live?"

Jiang Sheng swallowed the rice in his mouth and raised his eyes to look at Su Chen who was studying the seedlings.

"There are no villas in the new student base, so we were placed in a low-rise residential building. However, the environment is quite good and there is no shortage of things."

Nodding, Jiang Sheng did not continue to ask, and began to concentrate on eating lunch, but his attention was attracted by the thunderous sound of swallowing saliva.

Turning around, he saw a little boy who looked to be only about 8 years old, clinging to Lu Guixian's side, his round eyes staring intently at Jiang Sheng's rice bowl.

Although he really wanted to eat, he didn't reach out to ask for it. He just pinched the corners of his clothes tightly and swallowed, and huddled beside his mother without saying a word.

Seeing Jiang Sheng looking over, Lu Guixian sheepishly hugged the boy gently in her arms: "I'm sorry, base commander, this is my youngest son.

The child is ignorant, please be more considerate."

Jiang Sheng shook his head gently. This kind of child is already very sensible.

Although he was extremely greedy, he didn't open his mouth to ask for it. He came out to deliver lunch to his mother just like that. He was still a little adult.

Despite this, she had no intention of giving the child a bite to eat.

This kind of behavior is not called kindness, it is called charity from a high-ranking person, and it suppresses the spirit of the people at the bottom.

"How many children do you have at home?"

"I have three sons and two daughters. Unfortunately, my father is not a good person. He only knows how to drink and play cards instead of doing his job. I just divorced him a month before the end of the world.

Nowadays, it can be regarded as making a living with the children.”

No wonder Lu Jiatong is obviously a very capable superpower team leader, but his life is still difficult.

There are too many mouths waiting for food and clothing at home, and the supplies one person is given cannot feed the whole family at all.

"You eat first, and I'll take the kids out for a walk."

Lu Guixian took the boy's hand and walked out of the greenhouse.

Who would want to hang out when it's so cold outside? She just doesn't want her child's eager eyes to disturb her meal.

"Actually, the treatment at the Xinsheng Base is pretty good, the division of labor is clear, and the high-ranking leaders are not corrupt.

Therefore, although the people at the bottom have a harder life, they can still make ends meet by finding some jobs.”

Su Chen had already toured the entire base before arriving and had a pretty good understanding of the situation.

Due to the suppression of the previous group of evil people in the base, there is no deep gap between the current superpowers and ordinary survivors.

People with special abilities do not feel that they are superior to others, and ordinary survivors feel that they are no worse than others if they work hard with their hands to eat.

The atmosphere at the base can be said to be very good.

"I have an idea to improve the living standard of the entire base.

Many old, weak, women and children do not have any jobs suitable for them, and many of them are forced to stay at home and earn a living.

I think they will eventually have positions that they are qualified for, it’s just that the base hasn’t sent them out.”

Jiang Sheng organized the lunch boxes and placed them on the table.

“If we want people in the base to have enough to eat, it’s not enough to just plant potatoes and sweet potatoes. What’s more important is flour and rice.

Our area is not suitable for growing rice, but growing wheat is not a big problem.

The process of turning wheat into flour is a little complicated, but I think this process can stimulate the motivation of the entire base.

More people can be involved and the burden on families can be reduced as much as possible.”

Jiang Sheng tapped his fingers, looked at Su Chen seriously and said.

Su Chen thought for a while: "I think what you said makes sense, but where can I find wheat seeds?

Furthermore, if we want to turn wheat into flour, we have to go out and look for machines, and we need to make a lot of preparations."

Jiang Sheng fumbled for a bag of wheat seeds from the space. These are seeds produced by the space and are of high quality.

However, the environmental requirements will definitely be more stringent, so Liu Guoping still needs to carefully cultivate it for a period of time before large-scale production can be carried out.

Furthermore, they also have the mutant willow tree as an additional bonus weapon. Even if the growth trend is not very good, it must be able to turn the tide.

Su Chen looked at the wheat seeds Jiang Sheng took out and sighed softly: "Okay, it seems you have made up your mind.

Then Luo Bao and the others will go out for a few days and try to find all kinds of urgently needed machines as soon as possible."
