Knowing that she was changing the subject, Wu Chengyue replied without changing his expression: "You're welcome, after all, we also want to repay."
Lin Qiao nodded. The contract signed between Yuan Tianxing and him stipulated that 35% of the annual harvest should be given to Haicheng Base.
The two suddenly looked at each other in silence for a while, and Lin Qiao seemed to have something to say to each other. Then he waited quietly.
"Is there something wrong with your space?" Wu Chengyue finally asked hesitantly after waiting for a while. There was a hint of worry in his eyes as he looked at her.
Lin Qiao's eyes flashed and she asked, "Why do you ask that?"
Is it because he came back from outside? But everyone thought that she slipped out quietly.
Wu Chengyue looked at her and said: "Where did you enter the space before? When you come out of the space, you will still be at the original position. But this time you ran outside the base..."
He didn't say anything after that, but Lin Qiao could guess what it meant.
Wu Chengyue paused and continued: "I'll wait for you every day."
But you haven't shown up yet, so there's no need to be invisible.
Wu Chengyue didn't think that this female zombie would become invisible as soon as he left the space to hide from him, because she never avoided him, right? Even when he pestered her every day at the beginning, the other party just dealt with it with an indifferent attitude, but never thought of avoiding him.
So when the female zombie suddenly came in from the outside without warning this time, Wu Chengyue vaguely felt that something was wrong. If there wasn't something wrong with her space, then maybe there was something wrong with her body.
However, Lin Qiao didn't want him to know her situation. Now that her strength had declined, she wouldn't be stupid enough to expose it.
"If you want to know my situation, I'm fine now." Lin Qiao looked at him and said.
She can't understand this man now, and she can't guarantee whether he will do anything if he knows her situation. She still wanted to keep her distance from him.
Wu Chengyue could feel that she was still keeping a distance from him, but he found that this female zombie might not have noticed it himself, and she seemed to no longer reject him so much.
"I want to protect you." Wu Chengyue said only five words in the end, then stood up and turned around to leave.
I want to protect you, I won't harm you. So I want to know your situation, so that I can protect you, right
He knew that if he said this, the female zombie would feel that he looked down on her. She is a strong woman, so he can only say those five words.
Although the female zombie's rejection of him has faded a lot, the trust between the two still only remains in the cooperative relationship.
He really wanted her to take a step back and tell her situation, but knowing her character, he would definitely not tell her. Then I can only keep an eye on her.
Lin Qiao looked at his tall back and was stunned, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes for a moment. Then he regained his clarity, but his eyes became much calmer.
The next day, Lin Qiao began to work as a leader. While going to the planting base to investigate the situation, I approved official documents.
The weather has warmed up in May and June, and now the survivors in the base are automatically organizing to go out of the base to collect supplies.
You can keep the collected supplies if you need them, give them to the base if you don’t need them, and exchange them for points. In addition, if you don’t need it and don’t want to give it to the base, you can also exchange it with others for what you need.
There are few people in the base, and there are also few technical staff. The base recruited a large number of technical personnel and began to research and produce some daily necessities, weapons, communication tools, etc.
Other bases can only study land and planting nervously and think of various ways to grow ordinary crops. However, the problems encountered range from the seeds not surviving, to the seeds not growing up, or growing up without fruit, or the seeds being infected and mutated, etc.
Except for the sentient beings base, other bases are suppressed by a despair that is ready to sit back and eat nothing. Only the Gaowu people in Haicheng knew that the land at the All Living Beings Base could be planted, and none of the survivors below knew.
However, Haicheng wanted to protect the secret of the sentient beings' base and to appease everyone's emotions. He just told a lie and deceived everyone.
This lie is actually only half true, telling everyone that Haicheng has developed soil that can grow ordinary crops, and Haicheng's food supply will not be cut off in the future.
Because of this, the attitude of the people in the All Living Beings Base towards the people in Haicheng has become much better.
Not long after, other bases began to receive news that normal plants could be grown in Haicheng.
Huaxia Base—
"I have inquired, and Haicheng does not plan to release this technology." Hou Guozhong said with a depressed expression as he handed the information to Sikong Chen.
"Not releasing us? Do they, Haicheng, just want to watch us starve to death?" Sikong Li's face was gloomy and his brows were knitted together. There was a trace of anger in his eyes.
There has been no progress in the past few months of research. China wasted a lot of seeds in experiments, but failed to bring crops to life.
The land problem has never been solved, which made Sikong Chen and other senior officials at the Huaxia base feel depressed. What he said also seemed a bit thoughtless.
In this apocalypse, the moral bottom line has long been abandoned. No one wants to be that person's saint, and those who have that intention will soon be defeated by greedy human nature. To survive, no one will thank you. I just feel like you should do this! The greater the strength, the greater the responsibility. This is the human point of view.
He took a deep breath and thought about the lives of more than a million people in his base. Sikong Li closed his eyes, and then regained his composure after opening them again.
"Send people to contact Tianhuo, Mongolian, Black Dragon, and Qingshan Base. Since Haicheng is unwilling to release land technology, we can only exchange food with them." Sikong Li said with a stern look in his eyes.
The reason for contacting these bases is that their situation is the same as that of China. They have no way to change soil materials into organic and healthy land, so in order to obtain food. They can only cooperate with Haicheng.
But the main purpose is to use the combined power of the major bases to force Haicheng to hand over this technology.
"I'll make arrangements right away." Hou Guozhong nodded.
What they didn't know was that Haicheng didn't have this technology at all. They are just saying it to deceive the people in their own base so that everyone can feel at ease.
Just when Huaxia was planning to unite with other bases to forcefully obtain Haicheng's land purification technology, Zuo Chen and others from the All Living Beings Base immediately began the next step when they learned that their leader had returned.
When looking at Lin Qiao, whose face was fair but still beautiful, from a distance, Zuo Chen's eyes immediately became greedy and determined to win.
