Chapter 199: Sky-High Priced Seeds! Crazy Market
The gray-white saltpeter is of extremely high purity. With storage space, it is not difficult to unload the truck.
It took a little time, and all the saltpeter was transported to the safe warehouse on the second floor for storage.
According to the previous manufacturing efficiency, this saltpeter can produce tens of thousands of bullets, which greatly supplements the current strategic reserves in the shelter.
Clapping his hands with satisfaction, Su Mo returned to the first floor along the stairs.
"The next task is to develop all the five acres of black land that have been opened, and try to sow a batch before the disaster!"
Time waits for no one. Every day of the disaster is torture and life is full of fear.
But in the face of the welfare disaster, time is completely insufficient, and a series of basic work must be completed in a race against time.
After taking out the diesel reserves in the base and filling up King Kong, he carried Oreo, one person and one dog and headed for the black land.
The snow layer is very thick, which is natural nutrients and water.
Controlling King Kong, Su Mo 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 land.
The four-kilometer road between the two places suddenly appeared a straight line on the snow, which looked spectacular.
At first, Oreo was still sitting in the cockpit, curiously watching Su Mo control the bucket to work continuously.
Later, Oreo, who was itching to get off the car, ran and barked behind King Kong all the way, and was extremely happy.
After the master instructed the key points of the excavator in the training ground, Su Mo has become more and more proficient in controlling this big guy.
It didn't take much effort to drive to the black land covering an area of about five acres.
Even with the snow covering it, you can still see the dark brown land exposed on some high slopes, symbolizing unparalleled fertility.
After getting off the car, measuring the approximate range of the black land with your feet and hands, and returning to the car, Su Mo continued to work diligently and attentively.
The days in the wasteland are always short and fulfilling.
Without enemies and super disasters, all humans were shocked to find that they were not idle, but even busier than before!
Whether it was a lone wolf, a small shelter, or even a large shelter.
All humans moved spontaneously, wanting to clear a piece of fertile land to plant plants before the next welfare disaster came.
As for the price of seeds in the trading market, it was even hyped up to a sky-high price at this time.
I still remember that when Su Mo 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 why Su Mo could exchange them at such a low price.
But now, after the next welfare disaster broke out and everyone got the planting buff, the price of seeds was like a pig on the wind, and it flew up all of a sudden.
What, a small bag of tomato seeds, you sell me a big piece of bread, and I still want to buy it or not, unless I am an idiot, I will go. Okay, buy it, you black marketeer!
What, a kilogram of spring wheat seeds, you sell me a gun with 50 bullets? Are you crazy? Okay, I am crazy!
Any seeds with any nutritional value are being snapped up in the market.
Even some fruit tree seeds that take several years to produce are not let go by these "irrational" players. Once new seeds are released, they will be swept away by the big shelters.
The seed market has entered an extremely vicious cycle. In the eyes of some speculators, this is more like a big market that can be manipulated, which can easily make them earn unimaginable materials!
And in this process, the status of the Chinese is like sesame blossoms, rising step by step!
In any shelter where there are Chinese people, even if the people in power are of other races, they will look at the Chinese with shining eyes at this time!
Nothing else!
With the buff, every Chinese is an incomparable treasure, a super treasure that can produce three times or even five times the productivity!
Open up the land? No, no, no, leave these to others!
Turn the soil? No, no, no, leave these to others!
All the Chinese were shocked to find that in this process, they only needed to do one thing!
Throw the seeds into the dug pit, and then bury them with a shovel, and that's it!
This sudden change in status made these people confused at first, but after some clever people woke up, a trend of worshiping the god "Suma" was once again set off in the wasteland.
Of course, Su Mo, who was working hard on this trend, didn't know.
But even if he knew, his personal strength was too weak in the face of a market worth billions, and he couldn't maintain any order at all.
However, what Su Mo did not expect was that Su Chan, who was far away in the Tundra Shelter, did not keep a low profile as he said.
"Sister Shen Ke, is the Su Mo you mentioned really that powerful? I see many people in our shelter worship him in the morning! It's like..."
"It's like Su Mo is dead! It's so grand!"
With a pursed mouth, Su Chan followed Shen Ke like a follower, chirping.
"I say, little girl, don't let other people hear this, otherwise I can't protect you. I have to let them poke your spine, so that this matter can be exposed!"
"Su Mo, Su Mo is the hero of our Chinese people and our lucky star. You just came here and don't know it yet!"
Hearing Su Chan's words, Shen Ke turned around helplessly, pointed her jade finger at Su Chan's head, and said earnestly.
"Sister Shen Ke, don't you like Su Mo too?"
Looking at Shen Ke's appearance, Su Chan opened her mouth and made an exaggerated expression, which immediately attracted a slap from Shen Ke!
"Don't talk nonsense to me, Su Mo is the hero of our Chinese people and of course my idol! We haven't even met, how can we say that we like each other!"
Looking at Shen Ke's cover-up, Su Chan touched her head and laughed with a thoughtful look.
"Brother actually has such great charm!"
"Humph, but brother is too contemptuous of me, he has become the world's number one, and he still wants me to swallow my anger and be an unknown person"
"We have the skills to support ourselves, okay!"
Following Shen Ke, they came to an open-air venue with an area of about 200 to 300 square meters and surrounded by fences.
In the center of the venue, some small animals captured by humans were raised.
"Yes, it's up to you!" Shen Ke pouted at the small animals, making an expression of 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 small animals that were still jumping in the venue seemed to be inspired, ran over quickly, and gathered together obediently.
Among these animals, there are herbivorous snow rabbits, jumping silly roe deer, and three or four lazy snow sheep.
Normally, after being caught, these animals would ignore the grass leaves on the ground and the tender stems brought back by humans.
But at this moment, under the guidance of Su Chan, all the animals received the instructions and began to happily eat the grass leaves piled on the side.
This scene naturally made Shen Ke's beautiful eyes flicker.
"It's amazing, there are really people with such great luck"
"You can get the animal language proficiency in an ordinary treasure chest, and you can attract these animals with your personality. The animal breeding plan of the shelter can finally be started!"
"Huh? Where's the shovel? What, the door can't be opened? Oops! I forgot, you can't open the door, what, you want to learn to open the door?!"
"That's it!"
After cleaning most of the snow on the black soil, Su Mo sat in front of the black soil and danced with his hands to the Oreo next to him.
Just now, I found that I didn't bring a shovel, so out of habit, Su Mo gave a wave of orders.
But although Oreo has the IQ of a 15- or 16-year-old human, at this moment, after hearing that the door needed to be opened by turning the winch, her eyes flashed with great doubt.
Extending her paw and pointing it at Su Mo, Oreo called out softly twice:
"Woo?"
"Woo?"
This voice seemed to be asking coquettishly, how can a dog like me pull out the winch and turn it with both hands.
"Okay, when I get rich in the future, I will definitely install an electronic lock for you!"
Take out the psionic water, drink a few sips to restore your strength, and looking at Oreo's naughty appearance, Su Mo could only walk back to the base to get tools helplessly.
All the floating snow has been cleared away.
Just use a shovel to deal with every corner, use the excavator's bucket to turn the ground, and the land can be sown quickly.
Back and forth, until the land was completely dealt with, it was evening.
Driving the excavator and looking at the neat black land behind, Su Mo smiled with satisfaction.
That is to say, with the mechanical power, we can handle so much land in just one day, and dig saltpeter at the same time.
If it were any other base, it would be impossible to complete such a huge project without two or three days!
After driving the excavator back to the outside of the base and putting it away, closing the garage door and stone door in turn, and finishing dinner hastily, Su Mo began to prepare ammunition again, and studied the details of tomorrow's cooperation with the Candlelight Shelter in the west.
A day of rush has made Su Mo thoroughly understand how difficult it is to plant a piece of land.
Let alone clearing the snow and turning the soil, just using a shovel to clean up the debris on the land is a hassle. Not counting these, think about digging holes, controlling plant density, planting, and harvesting
Su Mo's head is about to get bigger!
"Although I grew up in the countryside, I have never planted 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."
Preparing nitric acid and sulfuric acid, and finally making it into guncotton, this process, Su Mo is already familiar with it.
As the first wave of guncotton was prepared and cooling and solidifying, the general details of the transaction cooperation had slowly begun to take shape in Su Mo's mind.
