The scene then shifts to Sang Luoluo.
Sang Luoluo stiffened for a moment, then smiled and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Sang Luoluo. Nice to meet you all. I hope we can get along well in the future."
The scene then cuts back to Base Chief Sang Tong.
"Now I'll announce the second thing."
Chapter 253 Poaching: How far is it from Base 03 now?...
"Our Base No. 32 and Base 03 have resource trading relationships. We provide each other with food and water produced by the Farm App, and they exchange it for Crystal Core that are more valuable than the Farm App's. In this respect, we profit."
"However, I recently received news that several bases along the route have encountered natural disasters, resulting in shortages of food and water. If we send a convoy out, the possibility of being robbed is high, and the costs are also high. Therefore, I propose that this exchange of supplies be led by Sang Luoluo, with a reward of 30,000 Crystal Core. Let's begin the vote now."
Everyone knew Sang Luoluo's abilities, and on such a major matter concerning the interests of the entire base, there was no need for anyone to object. Therefore, they all agreed.
Someone asked, "When will Captain Sang depart?"
Sang Tong: "After the deal with the Farm Owner, the base will be fully equipped and ready to depart at any time."
Someone else asked, "I suggest that since Sang Luoluo has special abilities, we could negotiate some other resource exchange agreements with Base 03 this time, and have Captain Sang bring them back. What do you think? Anyway, we don't need to bring back all the Crystal Core; we can exchange them for some resources that the base needs but doesn't have."
Sang Tong: "I'll take some people to discuss this in detail with the commander of Base 03. We'll discuss it further at tomorrow's meeting."
"Now I will announce the next item."
A meeting typically lasts about two hours.
Sang Luoluo didn't dare to lose focus for a moment, because every decision here was related to the great interests of the entire base. Even though some matters concerned the private interests of a certain family, and the base's higher-ups had to compromise, Sang Luoluo could still sense that everyone was relatively peaceful.
After the meeting, Sang Luoluo rushed into her spatial dimension to tinker with the agricultural robots. The space had undergone a major change; the amount of Spirit Spring Water had increased. She planned to increase the daily quantity of mineral water on the dashboard so that more people could buy it and drink the Spirit Spring Water.
In addition, she plans to increase the water supply to Base No. 32. She understands the benefits of the Spirit Spring Water, and she believes the base is aware of it as well.
Then the base will definitely spend more Crystal Core to exchange for mineral water.
It can be used not only as a drinking water source but also as an stimulant. It is now being used in the cultivation of mutant plants with excellent results.
After a busy day in the space, Sang Luoluo estimated the growth time of the crops on the farm in the space and reset the harvest deadline for the agricultural robot.
She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that the crops on the farm were growing better, perhaps due to the spatial upgrade.
The change in her surroundings made her very happy.
I immediately went to the forum and sent a private message to Sang Tong, the leader of Base No. 32.
Farm Owner: [I plan to increase your water supply. Do you have enough Crystal Core?]
A reply came quickly from the other side.
Sang Tong: [Oh, really? I wonder how many you can supply? We can provide Crystal Core.]
Farm Owner: [Increase production by 100,000 bottles on top of the existing stock.]
Sang Tong: [No problem, when will this transaction take place?]
Sang Luoluo glanced at the piles of crops in the space warehouse; they were all surplus from the daily harvest, and she had already accumulated quite a lot.
Farm Owner: [You can start now. Just click to buy.]
Sang Luoluo put the crops on a separate panel, Sang Tong immediately started selecting them. This time, there were even more crops on the panel than last time, and he didn't care about anything else, so he added everything to his selection. The competition base had exchanged for a large number of Crystal Core, plus what he had accumulated before, which was more than enough for this purchase.
Sang Tong chose to buy everything. After arriving at the warehouse, he clicked on the recharge amount and confirmed the transaction. The whole process was completed within half an hour.
Sang Luoluo looked at the emptied warehouse and the large pile of extra Crystal Core, and was very satisfied.
She doesn't plan to absorb the mountain of Crystal Core yet; she'll wait until she's collected a few more before absorbing them all at once.
This transaction volume is larger than ever before. It's estimated that Base No. 32 won't be able to produce that many Crystal Core in a short time, and the details of the transaction with Base 03 will likely change. She just needs to wait.
She didn't attend the meeting on the second day and chose to abstain.
This won't affect her much, and the voting results from the meeting will be sent to her in written form, which she can review when she has time.
Of course, the second day's meeting included discussions about the transactions with the Farm Owner.
Sang Luoluo couldn't care less about those things. With such a big change in the space, she still needed to slowly explore the growth changes of some of the more significantly altered plants.
Some vegetables are growing even faster; they now appear to sprout overnight and reach edible size in about 10 days.
This greatly shortens the growth cycle.
This also means that the farm's output has increased.
As for those orchards, the fruit's growth cycle has shortened, the fruit is slightly larger, and the taste is better.
Fish in the water are growing faster and reproducing quickly, as are seafood.
Looking at it this way, she suddenly felt that the agricultural robots in the space were not enough, so she should find an opportunity to buy another batch.
The batch she bought before was already quite conspicuous, and now it's not very convenient for her to go out, especially now that she's a high-ranking official. Every move she makes is being watched by many people, so she thinks it's better to forget about it and not rush into it.
Aside from mealtimes, Sang Luoluo spends all her time in her room, busy organizing the crops, adding new items to the shelves, or making new food, drinks, tea, desserts, and so on.
Now that we have the means, we can't skimp on ourselves.
Downstairs, Qi Xue and the others were busy making cooked food, especially since they knew they would be leaving again soon, and the journey could take several days, so they made a lot of cooked food and stored it all away.
Someone came to the door during that time.
They specifically sought out Qi Feng.
The other party was impersonating a high-ranking member of the base.
Qi Feng had no choice but to go out.
"Is something the matter?"
"Our boss wants to talk to you. Your abilities are quite exceptional. Why don't you come and develop your career with the Zhao Family? We can offer you better treatment. The Sang Family's compensation is limited. We can provide you with more food, and you can eat as much canned food as you like. Would you like to consider coming over?"
Qi Feng couldn't help but sneer inwardly. He knew the difference between a full meal and a regular meal. Trying to win him and his teammates over with Crystal Core was a sham.
Qi Feng refused without hesitation. "I'm sorry, I don't have that plan right now, and please don't come looking for me and my teammates again. We don't need those few Crystal Core."
"You... you should think about it again. We can discuss the terms further."
Qi Feng immediately slammed the door and kicked them out. What kind of people were they? Coming under all sorts of pretexts to poach talent, promising all sorts of wonderful benefits, but the risks were extremely high. He had spent many years in the wilderness and knew all too well how difficult survival was. Don't be fooled by how powerful some large families may seem now. Once natural disasters or man-made calamities strike, they suffer the greatest losses and are the first to perish. At that time, no one will care about their lives or deaths.
Unlike Sang Luoluo, their small group was strong enough to protect themselves in the wild. They wouldn't have to worry about natural disasters like earthquakes, as they could overcome them. Most importantly, Sang Luoluo could preserve food for a long time, so they wouldn't have to worry about food and water for a while.
This is something that no amount of money can buy; he must be a fool to follow them.
Three days after the transaction with the Farm Owner, Sang Tong issued a mission order to Sang Luoluo, instructing them to lead the team and prepare to set off.
Without hesitation, Sang Luoluo led everyone to pack up and head out.
They headed straight to the agreed-upon warehouse, where Sang Tong had already prepared the goods for the transaction: a huge pile of canned meat and vegetables, as well as a large quantity of bottled water. The goods filled several warehouses and were loaded onto dozens of trucks.
Sang Luoluo estimated that the quantity was about a quarter of the last transaction.
Sang Luoluo waved her hand and put everything into her storage space. Now that her spatial abilities could hold this much, it could easily accommodate seventy or eighty trucks.
The aircraft Sang Luoluo requested is ready, although Sang Luoluo own aircraft is not included in this mission. In addition, the base has prepared armored vehicles, protective suits, Crystal Core, smoke grenades, bombs, inhibitors, medical supplies, first-aid kits, and more—the supplies are very complete and sufficient for their team.
"Base Commander, we're setting off now."
Sang Tong nodded, his eyes slightly red, and said through the earpiece, "Make sure you come back safely, and be careful on the road."
Sang Luoluo nodded at him through the window, indicating that she understood.
Qi Feng flew the plane directly out of the base, and everyone on the plane was wearing protective suits.
Qi Feng was in charge of everything on the way.
Qi Feng asked, "How far are we from Base 03 now?"
Lei Qi said, "According to the location sent to us by Base 03, it will take about 10 hours of flight. Base 03 is no longer near Base 71."
