Apocalyptic natural disaster, stock up with billions of supplies to survive

Chapter 376 Experimenting with mutant corn

After Han Ying went down from the fifth floor, she quickly came to the cubicle where the soldiers were on duty.

Commander Xiao Liu also gave him a stool to sit on, but the stall owner was a little frightened when he saw the soldier's expressionless expression.

He only dipped his butt on the stool, and when he saw Han Ying appear, he immediately jumped up from the chair.

Then when I saw the 4 cans of milk powder and a large bag of clothes in her hand, I couldn't stop smiling.

His precious little son had his grandma drink it.

It's just that the bag of clothes looks a bit thick, and I can't wear it on such a hot day.

Seeing the stall owner staring at the bag of clothes, Han Ying knew what he was thinking: "There are only a few pieces, forget it if you don't want them."

Such a small child would not be able to survive without suitable clothes when it is extremely cold. Han Ying also specially picked thicker clothes, but if others dislike it...

"I want it!"

Hearing this person say that he wanted to take it back, the stall owner suddenly became anxious.

After the transaction, the stall owner happily took those things and left quickly.

Han Ying opened the bag and put her hands in it.

But in fact, he brought out a large handful of corn kernels from the space and placed them on Commander Liu's table. "I just got them, Commander Liu, I'll give you a try."

Han Ying couldn't bear to take out the bag of corn she just got from the stall owner.

After all, these are most likely the fourth generation of mutated corn, which can be successfully grown in such a harsh environment without entering space.

"Comrade Han, what are you doing? I haven't done anything to help you. I can't ask for it."

When Liu Shaorong saw the small pile of corn on the table, he became anxious.

This corn doesn't look like much, but it is dry. Add some water to boil it, or grind it into powder, and you can have a full meal.

Although they usually don't eat well, they can still be seven to eighty percent full. How can they accept things from the common people?

"Isn't it enough?"

After saying that, Han Ying put her hand into the cloth bag again, then took out a large handful from the space and put it on.

"How is that possible? Is this a question of whether it's enough? Don't take it, don't take it, it's enough!"

Liu Shaorong saw Han Ying reaching into the bag again and quickly stopped her.

Han Ying smiled knowingly. She knew best how to get these upright soldiers to accept her things.

"Shall I help you carry these up?"

Liu Shaorong saw two big bags of corn on the ground and was afraid that the little girl wouldn't be able to carry them.

"No, how much does this weigh?"

Han Ying said as she picked up a bag in one hand and left.

This bag only weighs 50 kilograms. With her current arm strength, it is no problem to carry one bag in each hand.

When they went up to the 5th floor, Feng Shaochen and his girlfriend were gone, and the pottery jars were not seen either. It was probably Lu Yuan who had moved in.

Back at 503, Lu Yuan was standing at the door waiting for her.

Seeing two big bags of things in her hands, she quickly took them and asked, "What are these?"

"Let's talk after we go in."

Han Ying closed the door casually.

After closing the door, I saw seven or eight clay pots stacked in the living room.

They were the ones she traded with Feng Shaochen just now. There were 8 in total, some were big and some were small.

Han Ying remembered that there were only four clay pots in their stall just now, but now there were eight. They should have moved them out from where they lived.

These clay pots look pretty good. They can be used to pickle kimchi, salted eggs, and fermented bean curd.

"What was piled outside the door just now, I think you traded it with someone, so I moved it in. There are still two boxes of paint hanging on the door."

Lu Yuan saw Han Ying noticing the pottery pots and said something.

"Well, I changed it."

Han Ying looked at the two boxes of paint first and guessed that Feng Shaochen and the others felt that she had given them too much, so they wanted to make up for it.

After taking it apart and looking at it, the color is maintained well.

She has used this brand of paint before, and it was not cheap even before the end of the world.

After looking at the paint, I checked the pots one by one to see if there were any cracks, but I saw a lot of things in one of the big pots.

After pouring out the things, there was a large package of headbands and three bundles of pens tied with headbands.

Later, this money can be used by Lei Yuhang and Lin Yang next door. These two children are studying and reading.

He put the clay pots, paints, and hair ties into the space, and then looked at Lu Yuan, who was looking at the two bags of corn with doubtful eyes.

Two bags of dried corn kernels?

Han Ying looked a little mysterious just now. If she only had two bags of corn kernels, she wouldn't be like this.

Squatting down, Lu Yuan reached into the bag and grabbed a handful of corn kernels to look at carefully.

It seems rounder and plumper than ordinary corn?

Moreover, no one else outside has the preservation function of their space, and these corn kernels do not look like old grain that has been stored for several years.

Seemingly realizing something, Lu Yuan stood up from the ground with a shocked expression on his face: "Is this the descendant of mutated corn?"

Seeing that Lu Yuan also recognized it, Han Ying also grabbed a handful of corn kernels and said: "I also made a guess, but it is very possible. We can try to plant it."

Of course, this trial planting does not refer to planting in space, but planting directly outside.

If it is really the offspring of mutated corn, and it is the 4th generation, then it will definitely germinate and grow smoothly.

The reason why I guess it will be the 4th generation is because the owner of the precious first, second and third generations will definitely not be willing to take it out.

The only ones that can be sold are the 4th or 5th generation.

The possibility of the 5th generation is relatively small because there is not enough time.

Han Ying has 100 kilograms of corn seeds here, and about three to four kilograms of corn seeds can be sown in one acre of land. This means that these seeds can be planted on more than acres of land.

What if they can successfully grow it outside?

When Professor Li comes over, you can give these seeds to him, or exchange them with him for other seeds.

Both of them remembered that Base Director Ke Zin told them that Professor Li asked them to prepare pots and soil so that he would have a surprise for them when he came over.

Han Ying and Lu Yuan didn't intend to ask for Professor Li's seeds in vain, so it would be good to trade them with him for mutant corn seeds.

The yield of mutant corn offspring will definitely be higher than that of ordinary corn.

But how high it is, neither of them knows, because they have never planted it before.

Han Ying grabbed a handful of seeds. She didn't count them, but there were at least hundreds of them.

She planned to use these for experiments first, soaking them in water to increase the germination rate.

And if these are just ordinary corn seeds, if they are soaked in water for a long time, they will definitely stink instead of germinating.

Since it is going to be tested, it cannot be placed in the room.

Because they usually have ice cubes in the room, the temperature is quite comfortable.

Han Ying placed it in the living room, where the temperature was relatively high.
