009.
Although the chiefs' share of the dishes was used, there was almost no fresh meat served. Even the two cauliflower snakes brought back from the summer festival were taken away by the researchers as research materials and samples. They could be called fresh. The vegetables and fruits are grown from the only space available for cultivation.
The quantity is not much, about one or two chopsticks per person. On the dining table, seafood, seaweed and sea vegetables are the most common.
But now that the sea monsters on Aquamarine have mutated, if we don't find a way to restrain them as soon as possible, I'm afraid we won't even be able to eat this kind of food in half a year.
At this time, Xia Ji particularly misses the "Dream Town" game in his previous life. It ignores the terrain and geographical environment and can be placed on the fertile land in reality at any time. It can produce thousands of kilograms of wheat per mu, three thousand kilograms of pumpkins per mu in one hour, and half of it. Hourly Chinese cabbage...
In my previous life, I relied on this to save the country from famine.
Unfortunately, once the game is cleared, the game will be sealed and cannot be used.
But from another perspective, "Dream Town" is not the most suitable management game for this Hope Star. In the 1960s, "Dream Town", a game that can solve famine and bring new technology, is very good, but in Hope Star, the dilemma faced by mankind today is not only famine. Famine is only one aspect. The other aspect is actually rainy day syndrome.
To be honest, Rainy Day Syndrome is not a disease, because if there is sunshine, the disease will not disappear immediately, but it will definitely not get worse. I am afraid it can be cured without taking medicine over time.
But there is no sun on Hope Star now. Just like Aquamarine Star, it always rains. Xia Ji passed through it and now, it has never seen a clear sky.
The medicines currently on the market for Rainy Day Syndrome are actually just a variant of treating mental illness, because this disease is more of a physical disease than a psychological disease. There has been no sunshine. Even if I take medicine to restrain it, it will still persist after a long time. Something will go wrong.
Before the end of the world, if a normal person were left in a dark environment, he would be in a trance within a month.
And from the end of the Aqua Blue Star to the Hope Star, there have been so many dark and rainy days.
Not to mention ordinary people, there are experts who treat diseases and suffer from this problem.
If humans had known that it rained like this on Hope Star, they would have given up their original investment in Hope Star and settled for a planet that was not so suitable, but at least it would not rain.
But it's too late to say anything now. The resources of Hope Star cannot support them to start over on the new planet.
Of course, if you are naive and reach the end of your road, you may have to abandon the Hope Star, get on a spaceship, and become a wanderer in the universe. Whether you live or die depends on God's will.
But no one wants to get to that day. Once it gets to that point, humankind is really not far away from extinction.
Therefore, apart from famine, the biggest problem facing the humans of Hope Planet is Rainy Day Syndrome.
The sub-world of the game "Cross-border Manor" that Xia Ji drew in this life is a normal planet with a sun.
As long as people from Hope Star are allowed to board this game every day, most of the difficulties facing mankind will disappear immediately.
Maybe seeing the sun will make you feel good, and a strong desire to survive will burst out, and your potential will be stimulated. Ordinary people can find ways to solve the famine to survive.
Of course, this is just Xia Ji's most ideal imagination at the moment. After all, she can only allow 100 people to enter the sub-realm. There is still a long way to go to reach hundreds of millions.

After eating and drinking, and chatting about games for a while, Xia Ji went back to his cabin.
I browsed the website, read the news, and took another look at the side world before going to bed, and then went to sleep. After all, I frequently traveled between the two worlds today, which was still a bit of a mental burden. I went to bed and fell asleep soon.
In the next two days, Xia Fei and ten members of the vanguard team played games, pulled weeds, cleared farmland, and cleaned the castle.
These two days are still sunny and good weather. Every time the people in the online vanguard team see the sun, they can't help but smile with contentment. Working under the scorching sun has become a kind of enjoyment.
No, after drawing the maps of the currently unlocked castles and farmlands, the leaders wanted to let the young man Jiang Wenyue take a rest and replace him with someone who could do labor. Jiang Wenyue still refused, saying that everyone would do labor after the end of the world. , and said that he would go online more times and provide experts with more research templates and data, but in short he refused to give up going online.
Since Jiang Wenyue made such a request, he was indeed not lazy in the sub-world, but was conscientiously doing tasks. The researchers also wanted to have more examples of Jiang Wenyue's physical fitness, so they followed him.
After two or three days passed, all the examinations of Xia Ji and the ten members of the Pioneer Team were still normal. According to the reaction of the Pioneer Team, they felt more relaxed and happy after playing the game world and had better sleep quality at night. The leaders felt that they could no longer wait. After all, there is no time for them to do more experiments.
Since there are no major problems so far, they have to let another group of people enter the game and help Xia Ji complete the mission as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if the farmland is cleared, they will not be able to grow anything, and the good farmland will be abandoned there, experiencing the end of the world. They all felt it was a waste.
It's not that I haven't thought about letting the vanguard team replant the cleared wild ancient wheat seedlings, but since the game system asked them to clear it out, it means that the ancient wheat seedlings should be useless, at least, useless to the farmland in the sub-realm. After clearing ten pieces of farmland, the system did not distribute seeds or open any game mall for purchase. According to everyone's speculation, the task should not be completed.
When it comes to figuring out how to play the game, the system won't give any hints. Xia Ji and the others can only guess and figure it out on their own.
So, on the fourth day, twenty more people came online to play the game.
However, this time the twenty people did not know as much as the ten members of the vanguard team.
Because Hope Star is still very unstable now, they cannot let the true existence of the game be leaked before they understand the game thoroughly. The ten people of the Pioneer Team have been carefully screened, and they can definitely be trusted and will never betray, and in order to help Xia Xia Matsuri was able to complete the task better and let them know what the task was. After careful consideration, he told them the truth.
Although the following twenty people are still trustworthy, in order to protect the safety of Xia Ji and to buy more time for them, the Chinese Alliance, the truth of this game cannot be revealed any further.
But because after logging into the sub-realm, except for Xia Ji who automatically changes his face and clothes, everyone else has his real face, which is his actual face, that is, his clothes, which are all ancient Western-style stain-resistant robes and trousers, and a pair of Workers' attire.
As soon as I met each other in this game, I knew everyone I knew.
Therefore, it is unrealistic to think of the previous ten people as NPCs.
Xia Ji, on the other hand, can completely serve as an NPC. According to Jiang Wenyue's paintings, Xia Ji in the game is completely different from reality. When the people of the Pioneer Team logged in, they saw Xia Ji's almost perfect face. Connecting her with her real identity, if Xia Ji hadn't spoken out herself, they would have really thought she was an NPC in the game, because only NPCs can be as beautiful as that.
Everyone agreed that it would be best for Xia Ji to play the role of an indigenous NPC in the sub-world, so as to cover up Xia Ji's identity.
As for the Vanguard Team, there is nothing they can do, but it does not hinder them. They can be regarded as the first batch of internal beta testers and gain the favor of the NPC Xia Ji.
Of course, we can't call her Sister Xiao Xia. After everyone discussed it, they decided to call Xia Ji "Lord of the Manor" or "Lord" because the castle is obviously Western-style, and it is still the ancient type of centralized residence, life and military. A defensive castle. The person who owns such a castle must be a lord.
As for the identity of Xia Ji, it is regarded as a heir who has inherited an inheritance. In ancient times in the West, there were heirs who could inherit an inheritance, and inherited titles and territories from their fathers or mothers.
As for what kind of prince she is, there is no need to carefully complete the background for the time being. First, complete her first mission and see if anything will be unlocked.
Anyway, these 100 places will not be given to the outside world for the time being. When it is officially announced one day, the closed beta will be announced to the next 90 people, and all the backgrounds will be re-perfected.
After all, Xia Ji has unlocked too little castle content so far, and there is no diary that can let her know the background of the previous owner of the castle.
Just like that, on a day when it was still raining heavily, the twenty selected people were lying in the so-called game warehouse arranged above. They accepted the invitation for the internal test of "Cross-border Manor". After filling in the basic information to register, a countdown appeared on their screens. forward.
At this time, these twenty people did not realize what was about to happen.
They were all confused when they received this mission. The sea monsters have become able to fly and the human situation has become more dangerous. The superiors even asked them to play a game. They also said it was a 100% holographic game and required a signature. Confidentiality agreement, and having to lie in a game warehouse that is very similar to a medical warehouse, with so many instruments on him, it is hard to know what he is doing.
But there is no other way. It is the bounden duty to obey orders, and the superiors are so heavily prepared, I am afraid there are other considerations.
The soldiers, who had tried their best to convince themselves and showed no signs of uncooperation on their faces, could not help but feel a few murmurs and uneasiness in their hearts as they watched the countdown.
Really, is it a holographic game?
Something feels wrong.
"3, 2, 1."
"The countdown is over. Welcome players to "Cross-border Manor". I wish you a happy gaming time."
The soldiers whose eyes were darkened could only hear a strange and solemn mechanical sound ringing in their ears. After the sound disappeared, the dazzling light made them subconsciously cover their eyes. However, in just one second, the trained soldiers immediately touched the clothes on their waists. Mucang turned around to avoid it, trying to find a hiding place to avoid being ambushed, but his hand came up empty.
Then when he opened his eyes again, everyone was stunned.
That, that is...
