From Refuge To Doomsday

Haibao gave up hunting and raised dragons instead, which is of course very secret, and the pressure on food has become even greater.

But there is no other way now, after all, the pressure is temporary, and once it succeeds, the pressure will decrease linearly.

But the current food problem has actually been haunting the eastern wilderness like a ghost.

Wars, typhoons, and locust plagues all put pressure on them.

Coupled with his current business exports, the grain has indeed experienced quite serious pressure.

Although the problem is still there, it is only a matter of time, and it will be fine to get over it.

To deal with such a problem, Yu Guo is not completely helpless, because he has a material blind box!

This is an important guarantee. The material blind box can be used for construction, but it can also be used for opening!

This mainly depends on his flexibility.

In fact, there is one thing that Yu Guo is more concerned about, and that is the task, which is still unfinished.

Although Yu Guo won the battle against Steel City, the problem is that he failed to conquer the opponent.

I still have to find a way to do this task, and I have to persist in surviving for another year. This time is almost here.

The clue back then was Steel City, which has now been completed, but Yu Guo, the armed force on the side of Steel City, still couldn't continue to conquer, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

That is, can Snow White be conquered by non-war forces?

Although he cannot use force to control Snow White, the problem is that he is now married to Snow White, and they are a couple in name.

If the two families merge into one, then there will be a more serious problem, that is, the major families will be unfaithful to Snow White because they are afraid that they will be completely conquered and controlled. This is predictable.

This may be a very good direction.

But now it seems that this unlocking task has actually foreseen that there will be more things this year.

When the matter of Haibao was settled, Yu Guo ran to Susan to reconcile the account immediately.

He must now know how big the food shortage is.

Moreover, now that he has the ability to transport by sea, he might as well prepare to go south from the sea to trade with the merchants there, so as to fill their food shortage.

In Yuguo's impression, the south should be rich in food. After all, the climate is pleasant, so there should be a lot of food crops.

He returned to the shelter in the second district from Seaburg, and Susan was doing research in the shelter.

Yu Guo knocked on the door lightly, Susan raised her head curiously, she looked at Yu Guo and asked curiously, "Why are you here?"

"South, do you understand?"

"South? If you go south from the red sand beach, it should be Nangu. Why are you interested in that?" Susan asked with some differences.

"Haigu? Hehe, as for Haigu, is there more food resources there than here?" After Yu Guo finished speaking, Susan was slightly taken aback, and then he sighed slightly: "Don't you know?"

"Know what?" Yu Guo was stunned for a moment, obviously there was more to Susan's words.

Susan put down the tools in her hand, she thought for a while and said: "Nangu was a very big city before the war, and the economy there was very good, but due to the expansion of the city, the cultivated land was almost gone. And during the war, it was the focus of competition So it has basically turned into an area of ​​severe nuclear radiation. The current Nangu is a barrier and barrier for us to go south. Our place is called wilderness because we have vegetation here. But on the other side of Nangu, it is called waste There is nothing but ruins. There are only city ruins on the south side of Nangu near the City of Night, but the environment in that area is still quite harsh, and it is completely incomparable with the wilderness."

Yu Guo looked at Susan in astonishment, and asked in surprise, "Nangu is so miserable?"

"It's not miserable. There are still a lot of cities over there, so there are also a lot of people. But the food resources are probably tens of thousands of times tighter than ours. Our food is definitely in demand when it arrives there. For us, it is an insurmountable barrier. The radiation near the sea is too strong, and we can’t get through it. But the far sea can be bypassed. If you want a rich area, the only ones I know are Eternal Night Tiancheng and Tianyuan There are two places. The rest of the area is basically a very barren or very dangerous area.”

After Susan finished speaking, Yu Guo felt depressed for a while. He whispered: "So, we have no way to develop south to solve our current food problem?"

Susan raised her head and looked at Yu Guo and asked, "Have you found a shortage of food?"

"It's huge, but it's not sure how many there are!"

Susan calmly took out the account book and handed it to Yu Guo: "Actually, this month is a bit difficult, because the harvest has not yet started, and there are too many things this year, and there is also the problem of grain production reduction. But Haimo has already studied it. He and Peng Ge Lie has studied it, and is already researching to open a trade route from Snow White City to the west. In terms of the trade route there, he can still get some food, and he can directly get food from there to Snow White City, and then reduce the cost of Red Ridge City. At the export point, the saved food can be used for a while, but the problem is that we have not yet determined the output, and if this year's output fails to fill the gap, it will be troublesome."

Yu Guo looked at the account book carefully, and his heart sank.

After all, he still plans to run a school in the future. Once he runs a school, the expenditure on food will increase a lot.

He scratched his head vigorously and said, "The shortage of food is too big, and we can't expand it in a short time."

Yu Guo found that after the local market became bigger, his problems became more and more.

Originally, I only needed to take care of my family, but now there are more than 100,000 mouths to eat and live.

His current state is equivalent to the population of a county!

As the number of people increases, various demands also skyrocket. This is not something that can be solved casually.

"In this way, the shortage of food must explode, and we must find a way to get food."

"The food shortage must explode? Although there are more than 100,000 people at the moment, it is not enough. The current food shortage is less than 10,000 tons at most. Red Sand Beach will indeed reduce production in winter, but it is not completely absent. Besides. Yes, Westfall is also expanding."

Yu Guo coughed, and said in a low voice: "Just now, I have issued an order to change the red sand beach into a breeding base, and it will not produce food."

"What did you say?" Susan looked at Yu Guo and asked in surprise, "Are you crazy? Then what are you doing there?"

"Raising dragons... Besides, I plan to start building schools, such as vocational education, elementary school, junior high school, high school, and university. I have to build them up, hundreds of thousands of people, at least to make elementary schools popular."

"Running a school? Are you really crazy? In that case, the pressure on food will directly increase! We already have a gap! You still do this? And what the hell is vocational education? Are you going crazy?"

Yu Guo sighed, and he said in a low voice: "I know, you must say that our biggest problem now is survival. But if we want to survive, without a reserve of knowledge, it is impossible to achieve a higher level. You Looking at the current situation, we need weapons, we need to increase agricultural production, we need the diversification of various commodities, and we also need excellent businessmen, designers, skilled workers, and farmers who can produce efficiently. Because our arable land is limited, Resources are also limited, if you want to develop, you cannot stop education. No matter how poor you are, you can’t be poor in education!”

"Then you are going to run a school on an empty stomach?"

Susan really didn't understand Yu Guo. The lords of many territories strongly opposed this matter, and running a school was even a death penalty.

Because they want to control education themselves, only the elites of their level are allowed to receive education, and ordinary residents are not allowed to receive education. Once the people's wisdom is developed, the territory will be more difficult to manage.

But Yu Guo had to do the opposite and do such a thankless thing.

The situation simply made her uncomfortable.

If we want to promote school running, we must subsidize the students who go to school to slow down the family's expenditure.

Let them know that going to school can also make money.

If this is the case, Yu Guo's material pressure can be said to be equivalent to a big increase!

Yu Guo coughed, and Susan sighed: "I know you are right, but the problem is that things have a priority, and we can't just go through it like this! If you do this, what should we do next? Eat What?"

"So we have to find a way to get food back..."

Susan froze for a moment, she seemed to remember something, and then asked: "Huh? Yu Guo, what if we expand the types of grain reserves? Add new types of grain?"

"That's right! You have a good idea! Now we mostly grow potatoes, sweet potatoes, wheat and corn. However, we still have a lot to eat on the mountain, but they are not included in our food storage category. .”

"The key is what else can we eat, and what alternatives can we find all over the mountains?"

"Beans, and some crops that can be used as flour, such as sorghum and cassava. There are also broomcorns that can be found all over the mountains and plains in the western wilderness. There is also barley that is common in the boulder city in the western wilderness."

"Yes! It's these things!... We really didn't take it as income, you mean, let's start mobilizing the big guys to start harvesting these things?"

"As long as we get through it, I think we can greatly increase our food reserves, and at the same time let fishing boats enter the deep sea to start fishing, increasing the output of seafood. There are more types of food, and the other is to focus on farming in the western wilderness. It's a breakthrough this year, once the food supplies are available. I want to greatly increase the investment in education, after all, Anna is also at the age of school."

Susan whispered: "Implement food sales control this year. No matter whether it is internal or external, the population will be rationed according to the number of people. It will continue until the harvest next autumn. What do you think?"

Yu Guo hugged Susan and kissed her forcefully: "Hahaha, it really is my beauty, my good wife! You are right, this is a good way! Let's limit the amount first to get through the food crisis. There will be a good harvest in the coming year!"

Susan pushed Yu Guo shyly and said, "Then why don't you spend more time with me."

"Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere today, I'll check your sign at night!"

"Annoying~~"

Susan's face turned red, and Yu Guo teased her with a smile: "That's enough beauty, let's rest~~ let's rest together, let's study how life is like?"

"Bah! Shameless, are you studying life, or strangers?"

"Hahaha, it's all the same!!" Yu Guo picked up Susan, and he walked towards the room generously.

At home, when Yu Guo became presumptuous, the Valkyries all turned a blind eye to him. After all, he was the only man and the only master here.

Even if he is a fool, no one can do anything to him!

However, the news from Yu Guo's side was just released, and Snow White already knew about it. After receiving the call, she said in surprise: "What? The eastern wilderness is short of food?!! What you said is true?! "
