Chapter 203: Visit The Farm

For the first time since the end of the world began, Teng Bai and Song Chengsu realized that there was still hope for humanity. The road in front of them is no longer bleak and dark, and they finally see light. It took the two of them a while to calm down from their excitement.

After calming down, Teng Bai looked at the green farmlands in front of him and asked, "Miss Zhu, how do you manage such a large area of ​​farmland?"

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "I only provide seeds and do not manage the farmland. Those people are the ones who manage the farmlands."

Listening to her words, Teng Bai and Song Chengsu looked at the farmlands and saw many supernatural beings using wood element and water element abilities to cultivate the crops. In addition to them, there are also supernatural beings with light element, metal element, and healing abilities working in the farmlands.

Seeing this, Song Chengsu asked curiously: "Why do supernatural beings with healing ability work in the farmland and not in the hospital?"

Xiu Wu heard his question and said, "We want to see if the healing ability is effective against the doomsday virus, so we are experimenting with the soil."

Hearing this, Teng Bai looked at Xiu Wu with admiration. So far, only three people with healing abilities have been registered at the military base. But just a rough count of the people working in the farmlands shows that there are at least ten to twenty people with healing abilities working there right now.

After Teng Bai and Song Chengsu asked a few more basic questions, Xiu Wu said, "Since it’s rare for the two of you to visit us, I will show Captain Teng and Captain Song our new animal husbandry."

As soon as these words came out, Song Chengsu asked in surprise: "You also have animal husbandry here? Are there any normal animals right now?"

Xiu Wu shook his head and said, "The livestock we raise are all mutant animals. This is also Ji Yang’s idea. He said that we need to balance our diet, so he suggested raising livestock instead of going out to hunt mutant animals. In addition, by opening up farmland and animal husbandry, our base can provide more livelihood and employment opportunities for ordinary people."

Listening to his calm answer, Song Chengsu was speechless. While people view mutant animals as enemies and fear them, these people dare to raise them as livestock. In addition, they also consider the lives of ordinary people in their plan when they expand their base. This is not something people would do given the world they live in now.

After walking for another half an hour, Xiu Wu led them into a large animal husbandry. Looking at those weird animals raised behind the fences and cages, Song Chengsu couldn’t help but ask, "Captain Xiu, how did you collect these animals? It must be difficult to capture them alive, right?"

Xiu Wu pointed to a building crowded with people and said, "We buy from ordinary people and supernatural beings. Also, the price we offer for live animals is five times higher than the price for meat."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Chengsu saw a huge reefer truck driving towards the building. Not long after, a group of people came down and pulled out a large ice box from the truck. With the help of the workers, they used a cart to transport the ice box into the building.

Seeing this, Song Chengsu asked curiously: "What is in the ice box?"

"I don’t know." Xiu Wu replied calmly.

Song Chengsu was very curious and asked, "Can we take a look?"

Xiu Wu nodded and led them to the warehouse behind the building. When they arrived at the warehouse area, a worker saw them and asked with a smile: "Brother Xiu, why are you here? Do you need us to deliver something to you?"

Xiu Wu shook his head and said, "I saw a large batch of goods just came in. What did they bring today?"

This worker is a member of the Ming Wei mercenary squad, so he knows what is in the ice box because they caught it last night. He smirked and said, "Last night we found a frozen lake not far from here and my captain decided to go explore it. We were lucky enough to catch a giant octopus trapped in the ice, so we decided to sell ​​it to the base."

After saying that, he looked around and whispered: "Brother Xiu, please give us a higher price. We’ve got information that due to the sudden drop in temperature, most of the materials and supplies outside have spoiled, and now we are short of supplies. Our only hope to get enough supplies before the next cooling event is you."

After hearing what he said, Xiu Wu thought for a moment and said, "You said this giant octopus was trapped in the frozen lake?"

The worker nodded and said, "It’s not just that. We also found that besides this giant octopus, there are many giant mutants trapped in the frozen lake. Fortunately, the lake was frozen. Otherwise, once those mutants come out to attack us, we will be in trouble. Also, those people from Lie Huo base and other small bases around it also went there to harvest those frozen mutants."

After hearing what he said, Xiu Wu looked at him and said, "All right. I will let Ji Yang know about this matter and let him increase the payment."

Upon hearing Xiu Wu’s words, the worker’s eyes lit up. With a bright smile on his face, he said, "Thank you, Brother Xiu."

After the worker left to do his work, Teng Bai asked, "Captain Xiu, in addition to selling vegetables and water, do you also sell meat?"

Xiu Wu turned to look at him and said, "Yes."

"Can we get the price list?" Teng Bai asked again.

Xiu Wu nodded, pointed to the building, and said, "Captain Teng can get the price list there or at the public office."
