Chapter 199 Sky-high price seeds! Crazy Market
The gray-white saltpeter is of extremely high purity. It is not difficult to unload the truck if there is storage space.
It took a little time, and all the saltpeter was transported to the safe warehouse on the second floor for storage.
This time, based on the previous manufacturing efficiency, the saltpeter can produce tens of thousands of bullets, greatly replenishing the currently empty strategic reserves in the shelter.
Clapping his hands with satisfaction, Somo returned to the first floor along the stairs.
"The next task is to develop all the five acres of black land that have been cleared, so that we can sow a batch of seeds before the disaster!"
Time waits for no one, and disasters happen every day. It was torture, and I lived on tenterhooks.
But in the face of a welfare disaster, there is not enough time at all, and we have to race against time to complete a series of basic tasks.
Take out the diesel reserves in the base, fill it up with King Kong, and then head towards the black land with Oreo in the car, one man and one dog.
The snow layer is very thick and provides natural nutrients and moisture.
Controlling King Kong, Somo walked and shoveled all the way, relying on the bucket of the excavator to successfully open up a dirt road from the shelter to the black earth.
On the four-kilometer road separating the two places, a straight line suddenly appeared on the snow, which looked spectacular.
At first, Oreo was still sitting in the cockpit, curiously watching Somo control the bucket and work continuously.
Later, the itchy Oreo got out of the car and followed King Kong barking and running all the way, extremely happy.
After being taught various key points of the excavator by the master in the training ground, Sumo has become more and more skilled in controlling this big thing.
It didn't take much effort to drive to the black land covering an area of about five acres.
Even if it is covered with snow, you can still see exposed dark brown land on some high slopes, symbolizing unparalleled fertility.
After getting out of the car, he measured the general scope of the black land with his feet and hands. After returning to the car, Somo continued his hard and focused work.
The days in the wasteland are always short but fulfilling.
With no enemies and no super disasters on their heads, all human beings were shocked to find that not only were they no longer idle, but they were even busier than before!
Whether it's a lone wolf, a small shelter, or even a large shelter.
All human beings have taken action spontaneously, wanting to clear a piece of fertile land for planting plants before the next welfare disaster comes.
As for the price of seeds on the trading market, it has been speculated to a sky-high price at this time.
I still remember that when Soma exchanged seeds for the first time, he only used a bottle of water to exchange for various seeds that were completely useless in the eyes of others.
In the eyes of those people at that time, these seeds could neither be eaten nor planted, and were even less valuable than a unit of stone on the ground.
This is also the reason why Sumo can be obtained at such a low price.
But now, after the next welfare disaster broke out and everyone received the planting buff, the price of seeds suddenly flew up like a pig on the turbulent edge.
What, a small packet of tomato seeds? Are you selling me a large piece of bread? Do you want to buy it? Unless I am a fool, I will go. Okay, buy it, you shady businessman!
What, one kilogram of spring wheat seeds, you sell me a gun and 50 rounds of ammunition? Are you crazy? Okay, I'm crazy!
Any seed with any nutritional value is being snapped up by the market.
Even some fruit tree seeds that often take several years have not been spared by these "irrational" players. Once new seeds are released, they will be immediately taken away by the large shelter.
The seed market has entered an extremely vicious cycle. In the eyes of some speculators, this is more like a large market that can be manipulated, allowing them to easily earn unimaginable amounts of materials!
And in this process, the status of the Chinese people is like sesame blossoms, rising steadily!
As long as there are Chinese people in the shelter, even if the people in power are of other races, looking at the Chinese people at this time, their eyes will shine!
Without him!
With the buff, every Chinese person is an unparalleled treasure, a super treasure that can produce three or even five times the productivity!
Open up land? No, no, no, leave this to others!
Turn over the ground? No, no, leave these to others too!
All the Chinese people were shocked to find that in this process, they only had to do one thing!
Throw the seeds into the dug hole, bury them with a shovel, and you’re done!
This sudden change in status made these people confused at first, but after some clever people woke up, a wave of worshiping the god "Suma" once again set off in the wasteland.
Of course, Sumo, who is working hard, does not know this trend.
But even if you know that, in the face of a market that can easily reach billions with your personal power, you are still too weak to maintain any order at all.
However, what Su Mo did not expect was that far away in the tundra refuge, Su Chan did not follow his instructions and keep a low profile.
"Sister Shen Ke, what you said Soma, is he really that powerful? I see that many people in our shelter want to worship him when they get up in the morning!”
"It's as if Su Mo is dead! It's so grand!"
Putting her lips, Su Chan followed Shen Ke like a follower, chirping.
“You little girl, don’t let others hear this, otherwise I won’t be able to protect you, sister. I have to let them poke you in the back, so that this matter can be revealed! "
"Sumo, Sumo is the hero of our Chinese people and our lucky star. You just came here and you don't know yet!"
Hearing Su Chan's words! , Shen Ke turned around helplessly, pointed his jade finger on Su Chan's head, and said sincerely. "Sister Shen Ke, don't you like Somo too?"
Looking at Shen Ke's appearance, Su Chan opened her mouth and made an exaggerated look, which immediately caused Shen Ke to tremble!
“Don’t bullshit me, Sumo is the hero of us Chinese people, and of course he is also my idol! We have never met, so how can we say we like him!”
Looking at Shen Ke's cover-up, Su Chan touched her head and laughed with a thoughtful look.
“Brother is so charming!”
"Huh, but I look down on me too much. He himself has become the number one person in the world, and he still wants me to swallow my shame and be a nobody."
"We also have the skills to support ourselves, okay!"
Following Shen Ke, after a while, the two came to an open-air field that covered an area of about two to three hundred square meters and was surrounded by fences.
In the center of the field, there are some small animals captured by humans.
"Nuo, it's up to you!" Shen Ke pursed her lips in front of the little animal, pretending to be watching your performance.
The next moment, in Shen Ke's slightly shocked eyes, Su Chan seemed to have a glimmer of light on her body.
The little animals that were still jumping around in the field seemed to be inspired and ran over quickly and gathered together obediently.
Among these animals, there are herbivorous snow hares, jumping silly roe deer, and three or four lazy snow sheep.
On weekdays, after being captured, these animals ignore the grass blades on the ground and the young stems that humans have beaten back.
But at this moment, under the guidance of Su Chan, all the animals got the instructions and began to happily eat the grass blades piled aside.
This scene naturally made Shen Ke's beautiful eyes flash.
“It’s amazing, there is such a lucky person”
“You can get proficiency in animal language from an ordinary treasure box, and you can also attract these animals with your personality. , the animal breeding plan of the shelter can finally be launched!"
"Huh? What, the door can't be opened? I forgot, you can't open the door, what, you want to learn? Open the door?”
“That’s it!”
After clearing most of the snow on the black soil, Somo sat in front of the black soil, dancing and gesticulating to Oreo next to him.
Just now I realized that I didn’t bring a shovel, so out of habit, Sumo gave orders.
But even though Oreo has the IQ of a human being of fifteen or sixteen years old, at this moment, after hearing that the winch needs to be turned to open the door, her eyes flashed with confusion.
Stretched out his paw and pointed it at Somo, Oreo softly barked twice:
"Woof?"
"Woo?"
The voice seemed to be saying coquettishly, how could a dog pull out the winch and turn it with two hands?
"Well, when I get rich in the future, I will definitely install an electronic lock for you!"
Took out the psionic water, drank a few sips to regain his strength, and looked at the Oreos Looking naughty, Sumo had no choice but to walk back to the base to get tools.
All the floating snow has been removed.
Just use a shovel to deal with the corners and use the excavator bucket to turn over the ground, and the land can be sown quickly.
Back and forth, until all the land was processed, it was getting dark in the evening.
Driving the excavator and looking at the neat black land behind him, Sumo smiled with satisfaction.
It takes mechanical power to process so much land in just one day and dig saltpeter along the way.
If it were another base, it would be impossible to complete such a huge project without two or three days!
He drove the excavator back to the outside of the base and put it away. He closed the garage door and the stone door in turn, and finished dinner hastily. Sumo started busy preparing ammunition again, while studying the details of tomorrow's cooperation with the Candlelight Shelter in the west.
The rush of one day has made Sumo fully understand how difficult it is to plant a piece of land.
Let’s not talk about clearing the snow and plowing the ground. Just clearing the debris on the land with a shovel is a troublesome task. Not counting these, think about digging holes, controlling plant density, planting, and harvesting.
Su Mo’s head is getting bigger!
“Although I grew up in a rural area, I have never farmed in this land. Starting from scratch, it is better to outsource it directly. I will make a big profit and let others make a small profit.”
Sumo was already familiar with this process of preparing nitric acid and sulfuric acid, and finally making it into guncotton.
While the first wave of guncotton was being prepared and the cooling and solidification process was taking place, the general details of the transaction and cooperation had slowly begun to take shape in Sumo's mind.
