Chapter 24 Planet Construction Day 3
024
Huameng’s anniversary is on December 28th. In addition to receiving this month’s low-priced nutrient solution at the beginning of this month, you can also receive the thirteenth month’s low-priced nutrient solution in advance on the 25th.
Although it is just the Hope Star Anniversary, but in the current situation, there is no other festival to celebrate except this one. Moreover, because this day is particularly close to the most important traditional festival of the Huameng in the past, the people of the Huameng also celebrate the anniversary as the New Year.
On this day, no matter how poor the supply of nutrient solution was in the previous months, there would always be one more bottle this month than last month, and it would be provided free of charge to everyone.
Therefore, those who come to collect nutrient solution on the 25th usually have an idea of the supply for this month.
In the first two months, residents with normal credit scores were given 18 bottles of nutrient solution per month. In addition to traditional flavors such as black fish and seaweed balls, there are also newly added carrot, corn and cabbage flavored nutrient solutions.
Unlike the carrot and corn flavors which were easily recognized as soon as they were released, the cabbage flavored nutrient solution was only recognized by people with particularly sensitive taste buds in the past two months or so. Most people didn’t feel anything special about it, it was just a little better than the seaweed balls.
The most popular one is still the corn-flavored nutrient solution, but this flavor of nutrient solution is relatively rare, and the "winning rate" is not as high as that of carrot and cabbage, so only a small number of people can drink it. For this reason, every month on the day when the nutrient solution is collected, there will always be one or two "sour" topics on Huameng's hot searches, and people will envy those who can buy corn-flavored nutrient solution.
In addition, families with children five years old and under have become the envy of everyone since the state distributed milk powder last month.
Although adults cannot snatch food from children, it is okay to smell the milk powder. If there is a baby in a family, it is not too much to lick the milk powder after it is finished. At worst, you can lick the bottle.
I heard that the milk powder distributed by the government is really fragrant and sweet. When you rinse it with hot water, the whole house can smell the milk powder.
Because of this, I have to keep the doors and windows closed when making milk powder for my child, to prevent the smell from spreading out and tempting the neighbors.
After the end of the world, everyone is tempted by any delicious food.
Moreover, in the month when milk powder started to be included in the supply, I heard that more and more people started to register for marriage and pregnancy.
With milk powder, people will be willing to have children. With children, there is hope for the future.
Ordinary people feel that their lives are getting better and better, and the social order in the Huameng has also been getting better and better. Although it is not as safe as before the end of the world when it was safe to jump around outside in the early morning, the number of home robberies or street madness is indeed getting less and less.
Like in previous years, every time a memorial day is approaching, the country has to send more people out to patrol, maintain public order, and prevent emergencies, turning a good holiday into a mess.
Now, the crime rate and the madness rate have been greatly reduced.
It can be seen that if people have a goal in their hearts, they can live their lives contentedly and positively, not to mention having enough to eat and warm clothes to wear.
"Milk and eggs?!" At the door of the supply and marketing station, when the first resident who came to collect the supply of grain heard the staff say that this year's holiday welfare grain not only includes 20 bottles of low-priced nutrient solution, and 2 of them are free, but also allows the choice of milk and eggs, he could not suppress his surprise and asked loudly.
The staff at the window confirmed the man's words with a smile on his face, "Yes, this year's festival supply includes milk and eggs. The milk is 100ml of pure milk, and the eggs are hard-boiled eggs. You can choose one for free."
When these words came out, not only the man was shocked, but also the crowd in line who heard his words were shocked.
"Oh my god, did I hear that right? Pure milk and hard-boiled eggs? Is this also the holiday benefit this year?!"
"Can everyone get it for free? Or does it depend on some conditions? Please give me this kind of anniversary benefit too!"
"Are these real milk and eggs? Are they contributed by Ah Hua and the others? Oh my god, this is too good!"
Ah Hua is the nickname given to the cow with flower-like stripes among the twelve cows. In Huameng, the twelve cows and hens all have their own names and fans, just like those celebrity animals before the end of the world.
"Look, he got it. It's eggs, real hard-boiled eggs. Shit! He actually ate it right there. His expression was so lustful. Is it really that delicious?"
It turned out that the man had chosen the egg. After he couldn't wait to receive it, he didn't walk far, but directly cracked the eggshell and performed an eating show on the spot. He peeled the eggshell, sniffed it, and held it up to the incandescent light and turned it back and forth, as if he was evaluating the best mutton-fat jade, carefully observing the tender egg white after it was cooked.
Then he swallowed his saliva, excitedly and cautiously took a small bite, just as small as a fingernail! The egg yolk hadn't even appeared yet, but he was so intoxicated that he closed his eyes and sipped it carefully on his tongue, as if he was a glutton before the end of the world, tasting the delicacies made by top chefs in a high-end restaurant, using his taste buds to feel, experience, and savor the long-lost egg white!
"Woo woo woo, damn! It's this egg taste, why is it so delicious?!"
The man finally swallowed the fingernail-sized egg, and before the onlookers who had not yet lined up could get fed up with his intoxicating and exaggerated eating performance, the man opened his eyes and began to wipe away tears.
This time, the onlookers seemed to feel the same way, and tears of excitement flowed from the corners of their mouths.
Damn, I’m crying, it must be very fragrant and delicious!
Buy and buy!
Please let me buy an egg even if I spend all my money!
The people in the queue were all excited. They stopped looking at their phones and stretched their heads to look at the collection window. When they saw that everyone, young or old, male or female, could get boiled eggs or milk, they became even more excited. They wished they would be the next one. They also wanted to eat eggs and drink milk!
Wait, if I can only choose one, is it better to eat eggs or drink milk?
Oh, God, I am not dreaming anymore. How dare I fantasize about such wonderful things as eggs and milk?
"Hiss~" I pinched my thigh secretly, it really hurts!
It’s good if it hurts, because it means it’s not a dream!
The people were happy and excited, and were completely captivated by the eggs and milk. Some of them were anxious and followed the man's example, peeling the eggshells and eating directly, or unscrewing the bottle caps and drinking the milk. One by one, they started eating shows on the spot, as if they were competing to see who could eat more deliciously and enthusiastically, making those who didn't get to queue up very envious.
So, one follows suit, and after receiving the gift, he no longer hides it and takes it home. Instead, he joins the army of food broadcasters. With a small egg and a little bottle of milk, he can eat it like he is eating hotpot. He can also chat with people around him about which is better, milk or eggs, your eggs are not as fragrant as mine, my milk is sweeter than yours. They chat so enthusiastically, as if they were foodies who had similar interests and loved to compete with each other before the end of the world.
If there weren't so many people gathering and refusing to leave, and the law enforcement team wasn't worried about something happening and asked them to evacuate, maybe this food show could have continued from morning to night.
But it’s okay. If we can’t do it offline, we can still do it online.
You can go back and put your things down and go online. You don’t even need to initiate it yourself, as there will already be related topics on the hot searches.
#Milk and eggs#, #Anniversary benefits#, #Eggs are delicious or milk is better#, #Blow up Ahua Dafu#, #Huameng is the best, I love Huameng#
Everywhere you look, the entire Internet is filled with a happy atmosphere.
However, that happiness belongs to the people of the Huameng, not to foreigners.
Ipes is from the Blue Alliance. Her base happens to be able to access the Chinese Alliance website. On weekdays, Ipes most often checks the Chinese Alliance's hot search list, where she can see all kinds of Chinese Alliance news.
She can understand Chinese because the Blue Alliance and the Chinese Alliance are on good terms. Before the end of the world, the Blue Alliance was a country aided by the Chinese Alliance. Although the official language is not Chinese, 70% of the Blue Alliance people can speak Chinese. For example, there are also compulsory Chinese classes in school education courses.
After the end of the world, the Chinese Alliance also provided a lot of help to the Blue Alliance. Before the global immigration, the Blue Alliance opened a referendum to the people to join the Chinese Alliance. The result was that the referendum passed with more than 90% of the votes in favor, which was enough to show the Blue Alliance's goodwill and trust in the Chinese Alliance. However, the application for joining the Chinese Alliance was not approved by the Chinese Alliance.
This is the regret of thousands of Blue Alliance members, and it is also the regret of Ipes. She likes the Chinese Alliance very much. In her eyes, the Chinese Alliance is a responsible big country that is responsible to its citizens. Every time the people of the Chinese Alliance encounter any disaster, the country will lend a helping hand to help the people with disaster relief. She envies the citizens of the Chinese Alliance very much. Before the end of the world, her ideal is to settle down in the Chinese Alliance and obtain a permanent residence permit.
Unfortunately, such an ideal is difficult to achieve now.
Not to mention settling down in Huameng, she now doesn't dare to go out casually, for fear that once she leaves, she will never be able to come back.
This is not an exaggeration, but a fact. After the end of the world, the order of the Blue Alliance was disrupted. Although the government has tried to restore order and maintain social stability, the weakness of national strength is the original sin in this end of the world, and it is difficult for the government to suppress social riots.
Even if they use violence to fight violence, there are still many people who turn to crime because of the scarcity of resources, especially food resources.
Even though the Chinese Alliance shared the formula for the nutrient solution and funded some manufacturing machines because of their good relations with the Blue Alliance, without a sufficient source of raw materials and unable to produce enough nutrient solution to supply the people, it would be impossible to truly maintain social stability.
In fact, after the Chinese Alliance and the Blue Alliance established diplomatic relations and provided assistance to the Blue Alliance by providing food, high-yield seeds, and breeding technology, the residents of the Blue Alliance gradually got rid of hunger and lived a life of food and clothing. For example, Ipes has never been hungry since she was born. Her family also took advantage of the Chinese Alliance's trading path to accumulate assets and became a relatively wealthy upper-middle class. This is why their family could afford the ticket to fly to Star Hope.
However, after the end of the world, on the impoverished planet, crops did not grow, animals did not conceive and lay eggs, and died one after another. There was also continuous rain, and after all the stored food was eaten up, the nutrient hydraulic roots made from fish and seaweed brought back by the fishing boats from the Blue Water Planet every quarter were not enough to satisfy all the citizens.
Moreover, nutrient solution at that time was still a high-priced item, or in other words, all food was a high-priced item, and was even almost a luxury item. Wouldn’t it be a crime for people who couldn’t afford food to eat?
Later, the government learned from the Huameng approach, using state-owned factories, credit points, and low-priced grain supply, but it still failed to reduce the crime rate because their fishing boats did not bring back enough food, and no matter how low the price of grain was, there would still be many people who could not afford it, and many people would not be able to buy it.
So people in the Blue Alliance kept dying, crime rates kept soaring, and now, if they didn't have a job, many people wouldn't go out, and would lock their doors and windows tightly, even using furniture to block them - if they had any. In the Blue Alliance, owning a bed was a great asset.
Thanks to the money her father had in the early days, Ipes's family could afford a bed, so today, when she didn't have work, she could lie in bed, drink water and distract herself by browsing the web for messages. In this way, hunger didn't seem so unbearable.
However, today's hot topics on Huameng made her hungrier the more she looked at them.
Pure milk and boiled eggs, the two most unsightly foods, actually aroused the appetite in his stomach. Especially when he saw the people of the Huameng eating eggs or drinking milk with intoxicated and satisfied expressions on their faces, Ipes was so greedy that he cried.
"Wow, why can you in the Huameng drink milk and eat eggs? I'm so envious, really so envious. The country is so good to you. It gives you so much low-priced nutrient solution every month, and you can even get milk and eggs for free during the holidays. Ahhh! I feel so bad. Today is also the anniversary of our Blue League, but our country has not expressed anything. I still have no job, no nutrient solution, and nothing to eat. I can only stay in the house and drink water, worrying about my father who has not returned home... Wow, I know that you in the Huameng have made breakthroughs in breeding technology. Can you please help us and save us? We also want to survive."
Ipes typed these messages on his bed while crying. The more he wrote, the more uncomfortable he felt. He felt like he was about to collapse and suffocate.
It's the end of the world, but the Huameng is still so good to its people, so good that people are envious and jealous, and wish they could take their place. Every time I see someone from the Huameng saying that they can't survive with only 10 bottles of nutrient solution this month, I want to go up and say, "Isn't this good enough?" Knowing that my father and I fought hard, got injured and bled, and sometimes we couldn't even bring back 10 bottles of nutrient solution in a month.
If she had 10 bottles of nutrient solution every month, she wouldn't be dizzy from hunger and lose her job.
Ipes was praying, praying that the Huameng could help them again. Even if they could not join the Huameng, please share the breeding technology with them. The Blue Alliance also needs hope.
Not only Ipes, but many other foreigners also left envious comments on the Internet. When the Chinese Alliance became a superpower, it was the focus of attention of countries all over the world. If it were on another planet, even if it was struggling to survive, many people would still turn their attention to the Chinese Alliance.
Especially after Huameng started the topic of #carrot-flavored nutrient solution#, more and more people began to pay attention to Huameng.
They watched Huameng evolve from drinking carrot-flavored nutrient solution, to corn-flavored nutrient solution, to infant formula, to milk videos, to a stable supply of 17 bottles of nutrient solution per month, to cabbage-flavored nutrient solution, to hen videos, to milk powder included in the monthly supply for children five years old and under, and then to today's anniversary benefit - pure milk + eggs.
Foreigners’ mentality has been blown away so many times, and they should get used to it - weird!
"Milk! Eggs! Damn it! How much have you hidden, Huameng? Blow them all out and kill me!"
"Oh my God, am I seeing things? These Chinese Alliance people are eating eggs and drinking milk?! Oh my God, I don't believe it. We in the Alliance don't even sell eggs and milk, so how could the Chinese Alliance have them? They must have used photos taken before the apocalypse to deceive us. They are indeed the Chinese Alliance people who are too proud and full of lies. I won't be fooled!"
"We are on the same planet and are the same race, but why do we live completely different lives? We are experiencing riots and massacres here, but you are happily eating eggs and drinking milk to celebrate the festival. This world is unfair, unfair!"
"Damn Huameng people! I'm going to grab my weapon and rob you right now!"
"I'm already preparing. I'll sneak into the Huameng next month!"
"Can I get eggs if I marry someone from the Huameng? Look at me, I'm tall, long-legged and have a good personality. If any Huameng person likes me, I'll immediately spend all my money to buy a biological mask, a gravity meter and protective clothing to cross the no-man's land. It's okay not to get married, and it's okay to be a little lover. Big rich lady, give me some milk!"
“Give me an egg and I’ll kill it!”
"Please open flights to Huameng. I am willing to pay a high price for milk and eggs!"
"Don't be fooled by the lies of the Huameng. They have already lost a fishing boat and were attacked by mutant fish. The nutrient solution has long been unable to feed the huge Huameng people. The carrot nutrient solution and milk hens they talked about these days are all lies. They just want to trick foreigners in and then kill them for meat. These cunning and cruel people of the Huameng treat us foreigners like two-legged sheep!"
"Where on earth do the Huameng's milk and eggs come from? Even if each person can only choose one, how much milk and eggs are needed to supply so many people in the Huameng? Just rely on those twelve cows and twelve chickens? I don't believe it. The Huameng people must be hiding some truth. I demand that the Huameng people disclose the truth. Now there are only us humans left in the world. If we are not honest with each other, we humans will become extinct just as quickly as other animals!"
"The Alliance strongly condemns the Chinese Alliance for deceiving the world. They are using photos and videos from before the end of the world to deceive the people of the world. What is your intention? If you have really made a breakthrough in breeding technology, why are you hiding it and not announcing it to the public? Do you want to be a traitor and sinner to mankind? I advise the Chinese Alliance to be honest and not play these useless tricks!"
On the Internet, these foreigners who are proficient in Chinese have expressed their opinions and posted photos and videos of the topic on their own country's websites for discussion with other people who cannot access the Chinese Internet. Then, people all over the world were outraged when they saw the news, and they demanded that the Chinese Alliance disclose its breeding technology or expose its lies and apologize to the public.
Senior officials from various countries also made video calls to the Huameng, testing the waters under the pretext of celebrating the Huameng’s anniversary.
Even the alliance that is the most aggressive in verbal battles on the Internet has to restrain its temper a little when it really faces the top leaders of the Chinese Alliance.
Many years ago, the Huameng was no longer a weak country that allowed itself to be bullied. Any country that tried to find a sense of existence in the Huameng basically did not get much good.
It’s very difficult to deal with the people from the Huameng.
Therefore, even if nothing was revealed in the end, the top leaders of the alliance could only give up after this communication, and then ask their media to attack the Chinese Alliance and put pressure on it. This was the only way, otherwise there was no other way. At this time, even sending spies would not work. They were afraid that even if they managed to get through with great difficulty, they would be corrupted by the Chinese Alliance's sugar-coated bullets and turn against it.
The damn Chinese Alliance members are the best at these petty tricks!
Unlike the people of the Hehe Alliance who always like to think about the benefits but are stubborn, the other three countries can see the situation clearly, not to mention the Blue Alliance, which wanted to merge the entire country into the Chinese Alliance at the beginning of the apocalypse. After the apocalypse, it was also relying on the Chinese Alliance to build the base so quickly.
Their attitude towards the Huameng has always been very close, and they have an almost mindless trust. When other countries may still be doubting the Huameng's breakthrough in breeding technology, the Blue Alliance's first reaction is to cheer, because they have no doubt about this emotion. In the minds of the Blue Alliance, the Huameng has always been powerful enough to be omnipotent.
So, after the end of the world, the Chinese Alliance was the first to break through the breeding technology. Is this difficult to understand? Is there still a need to question it?
The Blue Alliance called via video, and in addition to sincerely celebrating, it was also, as usual, trying to feel out the situation and see if it could be merged into the Chinese Alliance.
There is no other way. It is too difficult to survive on their own. This end of the world is not a place for human beings to live. They really can’t bear it anymore and just want to cling to someone powerful!
The other two countries, the Yemeng and the Shuimeng, said they couldn't stand the "lackeys" of the Blue Alliance, but the Huameng had made a lot of moves in the past year, and they were curious in their hearts, but they were beaten back by Tai Chi every time (the Yemeng and the Shuimeng said that the Tai Chi of the Huameng people was too powerful and they couldn't resist it). Now, the anniversary day has come up with such a big benefit, and no matter how hard they try, they can't suppress their curiosity.
Many people want to know: Has Huameng really made a breakthrough in breeding technology? How many cows and hens are currently raised? How can it supply the entire population? Is the carrot, corn and cabbage flavored nutrient solution really a chemically synthesized flavor? Have other planting technologies also made breakthroughs? Is it possible for countries to exchange what they have?
Otherwise, how about getting some milk and eggs for export? I'll look at what else my country has.
Huameng said: No appointment, not for now, I’m busy.
Then they gave Lanmeng a batch of anniversary benefits - cabbage-flavored nutrient solution and milk powder.
The Blue Alliance was very touched and said before hanging up that they would try their best to hold on. They also asked the Chinese Alliance to remember to merge with them when the time is right.
Yemeng & Shuimeng & Hemeng: Damn! The Blue Alliance is shameless!
And then, does everyone who sees it get a share? Our country actually needs some anniversary benefits.
Huameng friends smiled and said: I'm sorry, my fishing boat was destroyed recently and my family is in financial difficulty, so I wish you a happy anniversary as well. Goodbye.
Yemeng & Shuimeng & Hemeng: ...
