Chapter 1898

Xia Qing actually drove a helicopter over to pull seedlings less than 12 hours after the acid rain stopped!

After receiving the news, Zhao Zhao Baolin rushed over in a hurry and summoned the courage to block Xia Qing, "Director Xia might not know yet? Our base has decided to immediately reclaim the Sixth Planting Center..."

Zhao Zhao Baolin used "reclaim" instead of "establish" because the Sixth Planting Center had been established long ago. It is located about 15 kilometers southwest of the Safe Zone, not far from the eastern and southern territories, with a total area of 500,000 mu.

This area was fertile farmland before the natural disaster, and it was abandoned after the population decreased after the natural disaster. When the Hui 3 Base Safe Zone was established, this 500,000 mu area was included in the consideration, so when the Hui 3 Base was established, this 500,000 mu area was designated as the planting area outside the Safe Zone.

However, due to the constant natural and man-made disasters over the years, the population of the Hui 3 Base has decreased year by year, and the reclamation of this area has never been included in the schedule.

Last year, when the planting center in the territory was established, this area was designated as the Sixth Planting Center, with plans to reclaim it within the next three years.

During the period of ice thawing and temperature rise this spring, the anaerobic bacteria in the soil evolved again, causing the 1.8 million mu of farmland in the planting center in the Safe Zone to require at least half a year of soil improvement before it can continue to be farmed.

During this time, the Agriculture Department has been discussing letting the employees of the planting center in the Safe Zone go to reclaim the Sixth Center.

This morning, the base held a high-level meeting and finalized this matter. The person leading the team to reclaim the farmland in the Sixth Center was Zhao Zhao Baolin, who was now blocking Xia Qing.

So, Zhao Zhao Baolin blocked Xia Qing, wanting to intercept part of the H-12 green-light rice seedlings from her.

Xia Qing also received this news, so she brought people over to pull seedlings on the day the acid rain ended, to avoid long nights and many dreams.

She had come personally, and Zhao Zhao Baolin still dared to block her, so don't blame Xia Qing for not giving him face.

Xia Qing spoke with a blank expression, "Director Zhao, the base didn't give me the task of reclaiming the Sixth Center. I brought the employees of the Ninth Center over today to pull rice seedlings."

Nonsense, of course I know you're here to pull rice seedlings, otherwise why would I block you?!

When Xia Qing raised her arm, Zhao Zhao Baolin, who was cursing in his heart, immediately stepped aside, fearing that if he were a step slower, his neck would be pinched off by Xia Qing.

Xia Qing took off her protective gloves and walked toward Zhuang Yun, a researcher who walked out of the seedling greenhouse, "Teacher Zhuang, I'll trouble you."

Zhuang Yun is a classmate of Zhang Tao, a researcher in Territory No. 7, and is currently engaged in high-quality crop breeding at the Hui 3 Base Breeding Center.

Last winter, the Broken-Waist Wolf collected pine roots that could glow on the first peak of Mountain No. 56. After Zhang San's testing and analysis, he believed that this kind of root system had high research value and handed the samples to the Soil Research Department of the Territory Alliance.

After Zhang Tao led the members of the Research Department to achieve preliminary research results, he launched joint research with Zhuang Yun of the Hui 3 Base Breeding Center, using the fluorescent symbiotic bacteria discovered in the samples to wrap seeds and soak the roots of seedlings, cultivating high-quality H-12 rice seedlings that can inhibit the excessive reproduction of anaerobic bacteria.

Planting this batch of rice seedlings has a very high possibility of achieving a bumper harvest, which is why Xia Qing must get this batch of rice seedlings.

Zhao Zhao Baolin's scalp exploded, "When did Teacher Zhuang come over?"

Zhuang Yun replied with a gentle smile, "I came over last night and have been waiting in the seedling greenhouse."

That is to say, from last night until now, Zhao Zhao Baolin, the Minister of the Planting Management Department and Director of the Safe Zone Planting Center, hadn't entered the seedling greenhouse once, or even asked about the situation of the rice seedlings. This was a serious dereliction of duty.

Under Xia Qing's gun-like gaze, cold sweat broke out on Zhao Zhao Baolin's forehead, and he didn't dare to block Xia Qing from taking the seedlings anymore.

After suppressing Zhao Zhao Baolin, Xia Qing led the team to follow Zhuang Yun into the seedling greenhouse and began to move the rice seedlings out.

The Ninth Center originally planned to plant 200 greenhouses of rice, with 160 greenhouses of rice seedlings cultivated by the standard greenhouses of the Ninth Center, and 40 greenhouses received from the Safe Zone seedling greenhouse.

After the soil anaerobic bacteria evolved during the thaw, the rice planting area of the Ninth Center expanded to 350 greenhouses, so the number of rice seedlings the Ninth Center received from the Safe Zone also increased by 150 greenhouses, and she received green-light rice seedlings.

The number received by the Ninth Center was more than the total received by the remaining four planting centers! Zhao Zhao Baolin watched the Ninth Center's people use forklifts to transport the rice seedlings, his heart aching with pain.

After the first truck of rice seedlings was pulled out and loaded onto the plane, Xia Qing felt solid in her heart, "Minister Mao, you and Teacher Zhuang watch the transportation of the seedlings. I'm going to the Agriculture Department to report on my work, and by the way, collect the seeds and subsidies for the substitute grain vegetables. If there's a situation, call me immediately."

Xia Qing said the first part to Mao Mao Chuntai, and the last sentence to Zhao Zhao Baolin, who was pretending to be very quiet while on the phone.

After speaking, Xia Qing raised her hand to greet Zhao Zhao Baolin, who was on the phone, and turned to walk toward the gate of the Planting Center.

Unlike Zhao Zhao Baolin, who brought two evolved bodyguards wherever he went, Xia Qing herself was a high-level evolved individual with not-low combat power, so even if she didn't carry a gun, she had the ability to protect herself, so there were no bodyguards by her side.

After passing through the security gate and leaving the Planting Center, Xia Qing got into the bulletproof off-road vehicle parked not far from the gate and saw her boyfriend Yang Jin, who had multiple wounds on his body that had burst open.

When Xia Qing handed the special medicine she brought to him, her hand was held by Yang Jin. Being alive and meeting after the disaster was a happy thing. Xia Qing clasped his hand and quietly felt this time together that both sides had squeezed out time to have.

After a few minutes, Yang Jin raised his bandaged arm and pointed to a damaged two-story building outside, "That building was hit by a blown-away air conditioner external unit and steel frame, and the roof is leaking."

Xia Qing looked at the Fifth Construction Team employees on the roof and spoke, "The external unit couldn't crack the floor of that building, it should have damaged the waterproof layer and insulation layer."

Yang Jin smiled, "Hmm, products from Sister Qing must be fine products."

Xia Qing also smiled, "How does Brother Jin know that I led people to build this building?"

Yang Jin replied, "June 13th, the eighth year of natural disasters, the day you led people to pour the floor of this building, I happened to pass by this road."

That day, Yang Jin, who had just finished a 3S-level mission and returned with injuries, sat in this car and walked on this road twice, just to take another look at Xia Qing, who was pouring the roof in the scorching sun.

Xia Qing leaned on the back of the chair and sighed, "I was standing on the roof at that time, looking at the greenhouses in the planting center, pondering how I could enter the Safe Zone Planting Center to learn planting experience. I hadn't found a way yet, and the base issued the territory policy."

Then, Xia Qing actively participated in the territory reclamation mission, taking this opportunity to find the best territory. Then, she, who had no planting experience, carried a bag of planting books from before the natural disaster and entered Territory No. 3, becoming the lord there with Yang Laoda.
