Chapter 18 There are seeds
Farming is an instinct rooted in the Chinese genes.
No matter where you go, the first thing that Chinese people think of is always planting something.
When establishing a scientific research station in Antarctica, we need to plant some vegetables to solve the supply problem; when the islands and reefs in the South China Sea, we need to reclaim wasteland to solve the supply problem of fruits and vegetables; when the snowy outpost in Tibet, we also built greenhouses so that border guards can eat fresh vegetables...
Even when the lunar science experiment was conducted, the first thing I did when I collected lunar soil was to analyze whether I could grow vegetables.
It can be said that farming is really the instinct of the Chinese.
Because we have experienced too many famines in history, we deeply know how important food is.
Only if you have food in your hands can you feel unhappy.
But at this moment, Chen Yu built a hydroponic farm that could farm in space. Everything was ready, but there was nothing the most critical thing.
Seeds, the most fundamental thing in agricultural planting. Without seeds, no matter how good other conditions are, everything will be over.
If it was on Earth, it would be easy to say. Now that online shopping is so developed, you can buy whatever kind of seeds you can go online, with a complete range of types, and they are all high-yield and high-quality seeds.
But Chen Yu is in space now. Even if he can go online and buy seeds, how can he deliver them to him?
Although the space station now has postal codes, it is not a matter of just talking about it.
What should I do now? How can I get the seeds and get new food supplies?
It is definitely not possible to just forget it. The hydroponic farm is related to whether he can survive in the future. The problem must be solved in a short time and the hydroponic farm will be operated. Only then can you get new food supplements before all the supplies are consumed in ninety days, so that Chen Yu will not starve to death.
But if you don’t give up, you have to get the seeds. Without seeds, you can’t plant the field.
The only place where Chen Yu can get the seeds is the earth, but now he has no way to go back to the earth to get the seeds.
And if you can return to the earth, the seed matter is not that important. You need supplies and other things to be obtained directly from the earth. Although seed planting also needs to be done, they all belong to the category of self-sufficiency, and the nature of things is different.
If you can't go back to Earth, you won't get the seeds. For a moment, even if Chen Yu scratched his head, he wouldn't think of a solution to the problem.
This suddenly seemed to have become a difficult knot, making Chen Yu not sure what to do.
The audience in the live broadcast room were also worried about him. The live broadcast for half a month also allowed everyone to understand Chen Yu's situation and know the importance of hydroponic farms to Chen Yu.
Now that the farm is built, there are no seeds, this undoubtedly makes Chen Yu's situation very bad.
If you can't find a solution, there is only a dead end.
At this time, many people are helping Chen Yu think of solutions, but unfortunately, once things that are easy to solve on Earth are put into space, they become dead knots.
Whether you have seeds at home, run a seed business, or are willing to pay for Chen Yu to buy seeds, you can only solve the source of the seeds, but you can't deliver the seeds to Chen Yu.
On Earth today, there are only a few space powers that can deliver seeds to Chen Yu.
But this is not about sending a express delivery to a place 380,000 kilometers away from the earth. Simply put, it is basically equivalent to sending the seeds to the moon.
If you want to do such a thing, even a country with this ability will take several years to make plans and prepare rockets before you can send things up. There is no possibility of coming from the earth to the moon in a short period of time.
So is everything over here? Is Chen Yu's life going to enter the countdown? Is there no hope?
Just when everyone in the live broadcast room was worried about this, and Chen Yu himself became disheartened, an SC in the live broadcast room lit up, and the barrage began to roll over and let Chen Yu go to see the barrage of the SC.
There were even people explaining something, but the dense barrage was really hard to see clearly.
Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, not understanding what he was doing, but it seemed that there was a solution, so he cheered up and clicked on the SC.
I saw it read: "We are CNSA. In the core compartment of the space station that has just been launched, there are supplies prepared for the subsequent space experiment, including seeds of crops such as rice, vegetables, etc. If you can enter the core compartment, you can take away those seeds."
This news made Chen Yu's eyes widen and he was shocked.
Of course Chen Yu knew what it was in the core module of the space station, but it was precisely because he knew what it was that he felt so shocked.
The space station project is an important space project that the country has spent countless efforts and efforts to build, and the space station core module is the top priority of the entire plan.
Chen Yu didn't know what the seeds in the core cabin were intended for, but it was obvious that the country could spend so much effort to send these seeds from the earth to space, which would undoubtedly be of great use.
Now it is said that as long as Chen Yu can get it, he can get it!
You can imagine what kind of promise this is.
If Chen Yu had a little bad intention or broke the core cabin in a daze, then for the country, the loss would not only be billions of investment, and the entire aerospace plan would be delayed, and even lagged behind, or even missed the entire aerospace era.
Could this be faked by someone?
This thought flashed through Chen Yu's mind, and he quickly took a closer look. The account that posted this SC is indeed the official account of CNSA.
This made Chen Yu temporarily believe that this was indeed a message from CNSA, but why did they do this? Is it just that they just don’t want to see themselves starve to death?
Countless thoughts rolled in Chen Yu's mind, and all kinds of positive or dark thoughts kept popping up in his mind, making him unsure whether he should believe this message.
But at this moment, I can't think too much. After all, the world is great and the life is the greatest.
At this time, it is the most important thing for Chen Yu to get the seeds first so that he can survive. As for other things, Chen Yu felt that he could move back a little.
As for whether CNSA has any ideas or plans, it will take until Chen Yu can survive after he has enough food.
Thinking of this, Chen Yu didn't think about anything else. At worst, he would give CNSA some benefits. Anyway, he had this plan.
