Chapter 458: Carefully Consider
Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia Ju was feeling smug when she suddenly heard Du Yue ask faintly from the side, “What’s so funny?”
Upon hearing this, Xia Ju quickly wiped the smile off her face. “It’s nothing. Have you already thought about it?”
Du Yue sighed softly. “Not yet. It’s a serious matter. I’ll discuss it with He Xing when he comes back!”
The two of them did not go out of the base often, and they did not have much contact with other people in the base. Therefore, they did not know much about the fourth base.
At dinnertime, He Xing had just entered the house. He saw Du Yue and Xia Ju sitting on the sofa, staring at him with worried faces. Just by looking at the two of them, He Xing had a guess in his heart. “Xia Ju’s research results are out?”
Du Yue nodded, then repeated what they had just talked about with a serious expression. “We want to ask you, how should we decide on this matter?”
Hearing Du Yue’s words, He Xing was somewhat surprised.
After a moment of silence, He Xing said seriously, “There should be a lot of Snowy Cold Fruits in the first base.”
Zuo Mingdong was a cautious person who liked to be prepared. Based on He Xing’s understanding of him, he would definitely store a lot of Snowy Cold Fruits. If the fourth base could find a way to contact the first base, they could exchange some fruits from the first base.
As for the resources they wanted to exchange, they still had to rely on Xia Ju. Xia Ju was confused.
“I don’t understand what you mean. Please put it simply.”
He Xing cleared his throat. “Tomorrow, I’ll bring you and the nutrient solution we developed to the planting expert in the base. Give him the nutrient solution. As long as the trial results are good, the base will promote it in all areas. By then, the plantation should be almost ready. I can tell them that the Snowy Cold Fruit can be used to make medicine. Then, I’ll ask for the three of us to lead a team to the first base to exchange for the Snowy Cold Fruits with the improved seeds,” He Xing said his thoughts in one breath, and Xia Ju was already dumbfounded.
After being stunned for a long time, Xia Ju finally regained her thoughts. “How did you think of such a comprehensive plan in such a short time?”
After saying that, Xia Ju could not help but praise, “You’re really smart!”
He Xing snorted. “I’m alright. I’m a little better than you.”
Xia Ju said, “I gave you an inch and you’re asking for a mile, huh?”
He Xing could not be bothered to argue with her. He turned to look at Du Yue. “Do you think this method is feasible?”
Du Yue had also thought about many solutions during the day, but she did not come up with as flawless of a solution as He Xing. The only problem now was that the fourth base was too far away from the first base, which was not a big deal in the past when transportation was convenient. Now, a trip to the first base might be even more difficult than a trip to the western paradise. Not to mention that after the volcanic eruption, the environment had changed even more.
Du Yue told him her worries truthfully, but He Xing seemed more relaxed. “When the nutrient solution is sent for testing, it’ll take at least two months to see the effect. After the effect is proven, it’ll take another two months to plant the crops in large quant.i.ties. In a total of four months, 1 can build a car that can travel normally outside.”
If someone else had said this, Du Yue would have suspected that they were bragging. However, the person who said this was He Xing. Du Yue naturally believed in his ability. “Alright, let’s do that.”
Du Yue had been away from the first base for a long time, so she wanted to go back to the base. If there was enough time, Du Yue hoped that He Xing could build another car. “If everything goes well, we can go to the third base.” The promotion of new types of grain could greatly solve the problem of food and clothing for most people. It would be fine if there were no familiar faces, but there were Yu Xinya, Wan Dapeng, and the people from Suns.h.i.+ne Courtyard in the third base.
Du Yue naturally could not help them with everything, but since there was a chance to promote the grain seeds, Du Yue naturally hoped that they would be the first batch to benefit from it.
He Xing could guess Du Yue’s thoughts. “Don’t worry. Since I’m going to build it, I won’t just build one.”
With He Xing’s words, Du Yue could indeed relax. Thinking that they would be able to go to the first base in four months, Du Yue was looking forward to it. In another ten months, the eternal night would descend. At that time, they would not be able to wander around. They still had to choose a suitable place to settle down and spend the years of the eternal night peacefully. The first base might not be the best, but it was definitely more suitable than the fourth base..
