Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 170 Grade A Food

When Zhou Yi heard Bubble Fish, he thought of Shit Mountain Code.

The feces of this creature is sent to the surface of the sea through bubbles, which can create floating islands.

They blow bubbles everywhere in the Dead Sea and can hide themselves inside the bubbles, making it difficult for hunters like the spine hunter to distinguish them.

Zhou Yi asked Xie Xun to find Xie Si.

Xie Si is a little shorter than Xie Xun. He wears a red construction safety helmet and a reflective vest over his straw raincoat, which gives him a very civil engineering vibe.

Zhou Yi looked at it and asked, "You wear this to reflect light?"

Xie Si used his paw to adjust his hat: "Yes, Chairman. This hat and my clothes can reflect light when exposed to sunlight. I can be seen from a long distance at the bottom of the Dead Sea. I picked it up in the Dead Sea. It is very useful."

"Bubble fish are very sensitive to light, and when I wear something like this, they can find me."

Zhou Yi asked: "Can you summon them?"

"It can't be called a summon, but I can get their help."

Xie Si fiddled with his helmet with both hands, looking a little nervous: "I studied the breeding platform. I helped out there for a while before."

"Later, I returned to the scavenging team. In my spare time, I encountered bubble fish and tried to feed them with white clams. They also liked to eat this kind of food. I used a brush to brush off the debris stuck on their scales. They can usually squeeze it out by themselves, but it takes a long time and easily makes them uncomfortable."

"After getting familiar with them, I found that they really liked shiny things, so I put on this outfit and fixed some diamond-shaped stones on my backpack to make them look shiny. They became very close to me."

The scavenger said: "Bubble fish are different from bone fish. They are actually smart. When they saw that our scavenger team had a lot of items that were difficult to carry, they took the initiative to spit out bubbles, which filled our items. The bubbles made the heavy items float up all of a sudden. Then they pushed the bubbles and helped us deliver them back."

Then Xie Si entered the Dead Sea for a field demonstration.

When he reached the bottom of the sea far away from the shore, Xie Si took out a pile of diamond-shaped stones from his backpack, piled them into a ring like a summoning circle, and then stood inside the ring.

The dead light flickered in the Dead Sea mist, and under the light of the diamond-shaped stone, Xie Si's reflective equipment looked particularly bright.

Not long after, two fish creatures swam over and circled around Xie Si. It seemed that both sides were familiar with each other.

Zhou Yi was observing the bubble fish from a distance.

The bubble fish has fish scales and fish shape, fins and tail, and is slightly larger than the palm of your hand. It is a small species of light fish.

Their bodies emit a psychedelic sheen, like gasoline exposed to sunlight.

Zhou Yi saw that Xie Si fed each of the two bubble fish a piece of white clam.

They spit out bubbles to hit the white clams, causing the bubbles to burst and the white clams' shells to be blown open by this weak force, and then they eat the clam meat inside.

Then, Xie Si patted a large rock half a person's height.

The bubble fish swam around the stone, and one of them blew out a bubble. The bubble was transparent and reflective, and it kept getting bigger like a balloon.

When it is big enough, the bubble fish blows gently, and the bubbles cover the entire stone, then slowly float up, very lightly.

Xie Si took out a diamond-shaped lamp and pointed it forward to lead the way.

The bubble fish gently pushed the bubble and it floated forward at a constant speed.

Xie Si said: "Chairman, just like this, our transportation capacity has been greatly improved. Bubble Fish is our partner in the Dead Sea."

"Now we can carry a lot of things home at once, thanks to their help. They may look insignificant, but they are very capable."

Zhou Yi nodded.

In fact, there is room for further exploration and development of various life groups in the wasteland world.

"You've done a great job, Xie Si. Get along well with them. We need to strengthen our cooperation. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Xie Si scratched the shell with his claws: "Chairman, I need more shells. I have to feed them."

"No problem. I'll talk to Zheng Tao and ask him to give you more quota."

"That's great! Thank you, Chairman!"

"You have found a good group of partners for us. What reward do you want?"

Zhou Yi said: "You can raise any of them."

The other party hesitated for a moment: "Um...can I have beer?"

"can."

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Go find Gong Zheng later and get a box of beer from him. But remember not to drink too much, and don't drink while working."

"Okay, okay! I will definitely keep your instructions in mind!"

Xie Si swayed his body from side to side with joy.

Zhou Yi looked at the captain Xie Xun next to him and said, "The scavenging team has been established and running for some time. During this period, you have explored the city ruins and found a lot of precious metals and common materials. You have done a good job."

"As an independent department of the company, it's time for you to officially set your salaries. The members of the scavenging team will all be paid the same salary as the Iron Horse and Bronze Bull, 1 light seed per month, and the same goes for Ah Jin."

Xie Xun's eyes lit up immediately: "Yes, Chairman! We will do our best to continue to mine various resources on the seabed!"...

The growth of warrior crab colonies is visible to the naked eye.

As the weapon masters with the highest intelligence, the scavengers showed a good momentum. They began to imitate and learn spontaneously, and put it into exploration and practice.

Except for the fact that they communicate by knocking on the shell, weapon masters are no worse than humans in other aspects.

The only problem is that most warrior crabs evolve into hammer soldiers and dual-blade soldiers, and the probability of transforming into weapon masters is still very low.

As for the hammer soldiers and dual-blade soldiers, they remain as they are because their autonomous abilities are relatively weak and they still need Zhou Yi to give them orders.

He returned his attention to the express center and the Buddha.

Today, the former has become the company's first profitable industry, with strong growth momentum.

The latter can attract all kinds of life - currently more of them are local residents of Shagang. They often go to the giant Buddha sitting on the coast to admire and watch, and walk around the glowing giant Buddha. The Leshan Giant Buddha seems to have become the famous scenic spot that attracts tourists again.

One day, Zhou Yi was eating watermelon and flipping through the comic book "Doraemon" when Hongshun suddenly played a news flash.

"Shanhukou has completed the data update. The company has reached A in the industry rating and has officially obtained a 10 yuan credit line. This loan can be obtained at any time at a low interest rate. Shanhukou has already sent us an invitation, hoping to cooperate with us in this field. They will also provide corresponding complete supporting services."

Zhou Yi immediately perked up: "The express delivery industry has finally raised its salary!"

"No, Zhou, this time the company's food industry rating is A."

"food?"

Zhou Yi was a little surprised: "Are dried sweet potatoes and fried chicken so strong?"

He swiped his finger across the remote control screen and entered the company page.

The company is now a dynamic doughnut graph.

The center shows an overall credit rating of B.

The doughnut chart consists of four parts.

The first part is [Service Cooperation], accounting for 38.5%, the second is [Small Parcel Delivery], accounting for 27.1%, the third is [Environment], accounting for 21.1%, and the last part is [Food], accounting for 13.3%.

Each of the four sections has a description and rating.

Credit rating is the result of an assessment based on the weights of these components.

[Service Cooperation] refers specifically to the degree of cooperation with the mechanical and electrical city. Zhou Yi was included in the credit system based on this item, and the project was previously rated B.

[Small Parcel Delivery] There is only one "Wasteland Express" in the details, which is also B.

[Environment] This item is a more complex comprehensive assessment, including consideration of multiple factors such as stability, safety, and species diversity, and is rated C.

【Food】is rated as A.

The details include dried sweet potatoes, watermelon, and fried melon seeds, but they only account for 1.1% in total. The one that accounts for 98.9% of the weight is something called Jade Soup.

There are corresponding reviews for various foods.

Dried sweet potatoes and fried melon seeds were both rated as ordinary food.

Watermelon was rated as a good fruit.

But the description of Jade Soup is completely different.

——A new type of high-quality food that is inexpensive, easy to store and replenish energy, with strong regional characteristics, is an outstanding crystallization of human wisdom...

It single-handedly raised the company's [food] to A-level.

Zhou Yi looked a little confused: "What is Jade Soup?"

The Kestrel knew nothing either.

Zhou Yi called agricultural consultant Zheng Tao.

“Jade soup is a new local food.”

Zheng Tao smiled and said, "It was made by a young man named Qin Shu in Building 3. Grind various ingredients into powder, rinse with hot water, and add some mushrooms or bones to it. It will be very delicious. I have tasted it, it is more delicious than chicken head soup and chicken bone soup, and it heats up quickly, but it still cannot be compared with those foods from the Age of Gods."

"The Emerald Soup has been very popular recently. I heard that it has been sold to Coral Bay. The demand is now exceeding the supply."

Zhou Yi frowned.

Can you get an A-level rating just by grinding flour and making soup?
I’m afraid it’s not that simple.

Mechanical and electrical cities are not easy to fool, they have complex review processes and appraisal systems.

There must be something special about the Jade Water Soup.

Zhou Yi immediately said: "Take me to meet the inventor."
