In the blink of an eye, 100 days have passed. This day is a happy day for the entire base. Everyone is smiling, receiving new clothes issued by the government, and holding sufficient food, including rice.
As well as a variety of vegetables and even a little meat!
Today is also the day when the agricultural transformation plan was officially completed. The production results were better than expected. In 100 days, humans received a total of 25,000 tons of staple grains and more than 30,000 tons of vegetables, enough for the entire base to eat for three days.
Year.
As for the meat that is distributed, it is basically chicken. Instant chickens can usually be put on the market in more than 40 days. Although they are fed vegetables and are relatively thin, having meat is better than nothing. For today's people
, meat products are already considered valuable items.
The workers all smiled happily. Compared with high-energy compressed food, eating a delicious meal of rice is such a luxury. From now on, you can eat rice every day!
In order to celebrate this huge harvest, a grand party was held in the base. Mine operators and manufacturing staff also participated in the event. Of course, the necessary left-behind personnel are still required, but they can be divided into shifts.
Provide breaks and entertainment to ensure everyone participates.
The food at the party is not complicated, including glutinous rice balls, siomai, steamed buns, dumplings, steamed cakes, etc. There are all kinds of food, in the form of a buffet, with no limit, everyone can eat as much as they like.
Of course, if you are not used to Chinese food, there is also Western food, and there are also sandwiches and toast to choose from, but the variety is slightly less.
This party is poorer than any other party on earth, because people do not have so many supplies. But for everyone, this party is very satisfying, and they also know the current situation of the base, and then
Can't ask for more.
When they thought that the future would be better and there would be richer meals, their hearts were filled with expectations.
The base management took out almost all the food in stock, including cigarettes, wine, sugar, various drinks, various frozen meats, etc. These luxuries could only be enjoyed by the original senior leaders of the base.
After the explosion of the earth, some were left behind. This time, they were all taken out.
These luxuries have been used up, but they have not been enjoyed for a long time. Although the Noah also has an ecological park, and it is larger, if new seeds are sown, they will not be harvested for a year or so.
There is certainly no unlimited supply of these luxuries. Each person is rationed and can receive one after swiping their identity card. Of course, you can taste and enjoy various staple foods and vegetables at will.
Thanks to the existence of biological laboratories, humans have preserved a large number of different species of organisms. Otherwise, people would always have only a few kinds of food coming and going, which would be too miserable. But now, people don't have the energy to cultivate these things on a large scale.
For example, there are some seafood and shellfish, and there are some living specimens in the biological laboratory, but where does the seawater come from now? There are no conditions for breeding at all, so we can only provide them well, and look forward to cultivating them on a large scale in the future when technology is developed.
stand up.
There are also some freshwater fish that have been raised now. After the food transformation is completed, there is finally enough to feed them, and it is estimated that they will mature in one year.
There are also pigs, sheep, and cows. The reproductive capacity of these animals is still not as good as that of chickens, ducks, and fish. We can only wait for them to slowly spread their populations before they can be slaughtered. It will take at least several years.
.
However, species that don’t even have biological laboratories are most likely extinct. With humankind’s current technology, there is no way to resurrect them... This is really a pity. For foodies, there is a lot less to eat.
thing.
At six o'clock in the evening, the large-scale party officially started. There was no special routine, and even the host was not very professional, but people were still looking forward to it. After three months of crazy busyness, people needed a night's rest and a night of release.
The host came on stage and said a few provocative words, followed by various talent performances.
These people have all been auditioned, and the quality is pretty good. It is impossible for the organizer to let people come up who are crying and tone-deaf. Of course, because people don’t have time to rehearse at all, it is impossible to match the formality or professionalism.
Compared with those regular programs, it is better than the participation of all people!
Some people sang famous pop songs from all over the world, some performed a dance, and some performed magic tricks. The scene was very exciting, and there were many versatile performers among them, who won warm applause.
"Try roads...take me home...To the place...I belong..." A girl came on stage and sang the song of her hometown, which made people shed tears secretly.
People thought of the days when order collapsed, the horror of the lack of food in the base, and even the hometown they could never return to. How could they not feel sad...
Some people sobbed softly, their hometown and relatives are gone, they are all gone, and they will never be seen again.
But we who are alive still have to live... The atmosphere at the venue was a bit depressing for a time.
At this time, two more young men came on stage, one played the guitar and the other sang. The song may have been composed by themselves, and the lyrics were adapted from "The Saint" in "The Legend of the Galactic Heroes":
"We are saints, dear sir.
In the journey of pursuing a distant future, we will never look back.
Maybe we have to climb over the blue mountains covered with snow for thousands of years at the end of the world,
Or crossing the moody sea.
The heart is like a saint, and the body is in danger,
Comfort and smooth roads have always been alien to us.
The soul spreads its wings and faces the unknown,
Courage is the pursuit of adventure.
We are full of warmth and cold, hunger and thirst.
Then live to face the next dawn and challenge.
Only in this way can you find inner peace.
Only then can you tell everyone wisely:
‘I once looked down on all living beings from the most distant mountain top,
I gained perfection and enlightenment there. I practiced it personally and experienced warmth, cold, hunger and thirst.
Then live to face the next dawn and challenge.
Finally, I found inner peace.’
I will tell everyone wisely:
‘I once looked down on all living beings from the most distant mountain top,
Obtaining perfection and enlightenment there is the true enlightenment deep in the soul.
That's the whole meaning of my life.
It is my choice from the bottom of my heart!
Our journey is to the stars and the sea!’”
Obviously, this is not pop music, nor is it classical music. It should be a score compiled by these two young men themselves. It still has a hint of youthfulness, but it feels very real.
Human beings will never lack warriors. The great fear of dying at any time and the endless darkness in the depths of despair are nothing compared to the heart of exploration in our hearts.
Facing the endless unknown, human beings are curious and afraid. People stand on tiptoes, tremble at the top of their hearts, muster up the fighting spirit in their hearts, and move towards the endless darkness. Who is not afraid of death? However, human beings will always have such a
warrior!
Peng Jiamu who disappeared in Lop Nur, Fawcett who was swallowed by the unknown jungle, Franklin who was trapped in the Arctic...failures one after another cannot erase human ambitions, because they are the greatest warriors of human beings!
And now, people are about to face the biggest challenge in history, which is the starry sky! Whether forced or voluntary, fearful or excited, trembling or curious, people will start to challenge - the height of the starry sky!
"Starry Sky, here we come!" the two of them finished singing and yelled something that was still unfinished, but it unexpectedly aroused the resonance of many people.
Human beings today are like an infant child, but the mother is gone. The child must be strong on his own...otherwise, it will be a cold death.
