Busy Farming In the Last Days - Chapter 89
It’s not just salt, there are vacancies in S bases on all sides. The fish farming that Ji Cha has always wanted to expand has been put on hold because S City itself does not have such an industry and cannot find the corresponding technical personnel. If you want to refine farming, there are always many shortcomings.
Country C itself has a vast territory and abundant resources. In modern development, various cities have used their own advantages to form a network of mutual exchanges. It is a huge network of social relations that promote and support each other’s development. Many large cities themselves have huge advantages in economic development, but after the end of the world, they are separated from the resource supply of surrounding cities and towns. In addition, the population density is more serious and the zombie situation is more serious. Instead, they decline faster than the countryside.
The originally closely-connected network of relations has been cut off by the advent of the end times, making each originally connected area once again become an independent island. Before the end of the world, City S was called a second-tier city in name. However, it cannot be compared with some real second-tier cities. The only advantage is that it is located in the very center of the province and the transportation is very convenient. The original development was also based on private small factories, but there were no outstanding projects, and the natural resources were not rich enough.
Ji Cha followed his subordinates by car to several important production areas on the farm all morning, and recorded various data, but did not read half of the place in the morning. Seeing that it was time for lunch, Ji Cha felt that this day was taken. I felt awkward when I came to use it. I originally planned to deal with it casually for lunch, and continue to inspect after eating, but I didn’t expect a guard to come over.
“Chief Season, Captain Liang invites you to lunch together,”
Ji Cha lowered his head to record the data: “You told him that I won’t go. He will eat by himself at noon. I am very busy here.”
“It seems that it’s not just Captain Liang,” the guard said a step closer. “A few people came out this morning, like from other bases. They had dinner together at noon. Captain Liang specially asked me to come to you. I guess there is something I want to discuss with you. “
The pen in Ji Cha’s hand stopped, and he thought for a while: “Okay, where did you eat it?”
The guard grinned: “You go with me now, and the meal will be ready in a while. Captain Liang said that it is enough to eat in the office.”
The office is actually the apartment where Liang Jincheng lives. The outside is a desk, and the inside is the bedroom where he lives with Ji Cha.
After riding a small electric donkey from the farm for about ten minutes, when I got off the bus, Ji Cha glanced around. The door of Liang Jincheng’s room was closed. In addition to the two guards who were usually there, there were several sides standing at the door. People who were born and dressed differently from those in the base. It is estimated that they are from the base outside.
The guards helped Ji Cha open the door, and the aroma of the food inside immediately spread.
Ji Cha paused at the door, then turned to ask the guard: “Have you eaten yet?”
The guards shook their heads.
“Then take a few guests to the cafeteria for a meal.”
That said, the reason should be the same, but neither the guards nor the people at the base outside moved.
Ji Cha thought for a while and got it. This is because both sides are afraid of something unexpected in the house and dare not walk away. He then said again: “Xiao Chen, go to the cafeteria for a meal.”
One of the guards agreed, and walked away quickly.
Just now Ji Cha stepped through the door, Liang Jincheng stood up and introduced to the two people sitting in the house: “This is Ji Cha, Cha Cha, which is responsible for farm management at the base. This is Ke Chenglei and Feng Xing from the base of T City. Coming.”
“Hello, I am Ji Cha.” Ji Cha greeted the two and sat down beside Liang Jincheng.
However, Ke Chenglei and Feng Xing did not expect that Liang Jincheng, who looks serious and difficult to get along with and is obviously a master, would be like spring flowers after seeing Jicha, and the officials would call it Chacha?
They were dumbfounded for a moment by Ji Cha, and then he realized why the two of them had reacted like this.
Just now Liang Jincheng asked him to come for tea.
But at this time, Ji Cha was a little shy in her heart, and she couldn’t say anything on the surface. He could only turn his head slightly to look at Liang Jincheng from the corner of his eyes, and signal him to converge slightly in front of outsiders.
The simple dishes on the table are actually worse than what they usually eat. I don’t know if Liang Jincheng made the arrangement deliberately. But even so, the surprise of Ke Chenglei and Feng Xing can hardly be concealed. The development of the base in S City is much better than they expected.
T City’s base is located in the coastal area and has always been mainly fishery, but there is less land suitable for agricultural planting, and there are few people who originally made a living from agriculture, not to mention all kinds of livestock breeding. After the end of the world, although the base in T City has developed well, it is far from the base in S City. At least when Ke Chenglei and Feng Xing entered the S base, they were completely touched by the planned buildings in the base and the mental outlook of ordinary civilians.
They originally intended to come over to learn about the development of the surrounding area, and they also walked through a few small bases before they came to S City. They thought that the base in T City was well developed, but they didn’t expect it to be insignificant.
The base in T City lacked many things, first of all, the staple food they lacked. This was the top priority that needed to be resolved immediately. This time, now that they had the opportunity to sit down and have a meal with the highest commander of the S city base, Ke Chenglei and Feng Xing would naturally not fail to mention this.
Jicha also knows the base in T city. Judging from the end-time experience of the previous life, the base in T city is also a very competitive base. However, the exchange between the base in S city and the base in T city was a few years later than now. At that time, City T had already cooperated with other bases to solve the food problem, and City S would lose a lot of advantages when contacting them later.
Not only is there no shortage of salt in T City, but there are also a lot of metal resources in the surrounding mountainous areas. All kinds of equipment in the original mining farm are readily available, so it won’t be too difficult to regain it. If they can reach a cooperation with T City now, they will not only be able to take advantage of their lack of weight to gain greater profits for their base, but also pay a smaller cost at the same time.
At the same time, Ji Cha also thought of a problem that he was having a headache recently, the technicians who raised fish. There is not much professional fish farming in S city, and there are many in T city. If cooperation can be achieved, and T city can temporarily send a few skilled personnel over, then Ji Cha’s headache problem will be solved.
“Under the premise of solving the rations of our own base, we can provide part of the grain production.” Ji Cha is very clear about how much grain the farm can produce. On the basis of this, he is still planning to open up another planting area, and it will not be difficult to “export” part of it at that time.
“But it’s not just salt. For the rest, I hope you can provide some technical exchange personnel to promote the progress and development of the two bases. In addition, I know that T City is rich in metal resources. I also hope that we can Able to reach continuous cooperation.”
Ke Chenglei and Feng Xing didn’t expect Liang Jincheng to speak first, but Ji Cha first spoke a long list.
“Everything else is easy to say, but the metal mining is not a secret,” Ke Chenglei said. “At present, we have not restarted the work in this area. We still focus on the basic development of the base.”
This is also very understandable. After all, if food and clothing are not completely resolved, no one will have the energy to worry about things other than this. In addition, the T city base has a population of only 5,000 people, which is far less than the 20,000 people in the S city base, and it is difficult to separate manpower to manage the mine.
“This is not a problem,” Liang Jincheng said, “We can provide food here, and the metal mines can be jointly mined by the two bases, and the mined minerals can be distributed.”
This is also a solution.
Compared with the various minerals that are still invisible, food is the top priority for the T city base. Ke Chenglei and Feng Xing agreed almost without hesitation.
Feng Xing remembered the technical staff mentioned by Ji Cha just now, and asked: “I don’t know what kind of technical staff the field director mentioned just now?”
“I hope to borrow a few technicians who understand fisheries from your base. At the same time, if you have any needs, you can also put forward the technicians you need. If our base can provide help, we will definitely work hard to support it.” Ji Chadao.
Speaking of secondment of technical personnel, T City currently has nothing to borrow from S City. After all, even the most needed agricultural technicians are basically chicken ribs, because they don’t have the innate planting conditions.
City S and City T are about four hours’ drive. Although the distance is not far, the road is dangerous because there is a large number of zombies in the middle of the area.
Now that an agreement is basically reached, the two sides also agreed to control and deal with the zombies on this road to a certain extent, at least not to let them affect the resource transportation on both sides.
Ji Cha remembers that before the end of the world came, he had watched many TV movies of similar themes, and even many European and American games were based on the end of the world. In terms of games, the biggest difference between netizens in country C and foreign players is that even in the doomsday environment, even if the theme of the game is basically don’t believe anyone, they can still trust each other in an environment where they compete and kill each other, using unity and The trust of the same blood forms a camp.
The base that has always been in an isolated island has now begun to connect with the outside world, learning from each other’s strengths and developing together.
Even in the last days, sooner or later, people will see the light of hope reignite.
