What should I do if all the contractors are in love?

Cauliflower and white cabbage are actually broccoli and cabbage.

After the two stir-fried dishes and a bowl of white rice were placed on the table by the robotic arm above the ceiling, Yunjiu couldn't help but swallow.

There was no way, after all, she was no longer a princess enjoying all the splendor and wealth, fine clothes and delicious food;

Nor do we live in the affluent 21st century where there is no shortage of food and drink;

She is now Yun·Savage·Jiu, who has experienced the apocalypse for four years and spent two years alone on a strange planet.

Yunjiu set his eyes on Xie Zhiyu, who was sitting at the bar with his head down, seemingly still studying the menu.

She asked politely, "Aren't you going to eat?"

Xie Zhiyu smiled at her and said in a gentle voice: "You eat, I have already had dinner."

He paused and said, "The captain will come over later. He hasn't had dinner yet..."

Yunjiu had already picked up a piece of rice with chopsticks, and for a moment he didn't know whether to put it in his mouth or wait for someone to come before eating.

Xie Zhiyu quickly explained: "It's okay, just eat your food. Ahem... I just wanted to say that the captain has prepared a few sets of clothes for you, please take a look and see if they fit you."

"Okay, thank you."

After Yunjiu agreed, he quickly stuffed the rice into his mouth. At that moment, the long-lost feeling of satisfaction lingered throughout his body.

Xie Zhiyu looked at the girl who was emitting a joyful aura all over her body, and a rare feeling of pity arose in his heart.

After all, he is still a teenager, and it is not easy for him to live on an undeveloped planet by himself.

——Look how hungry this child is.

The fried beast meat was taken out of the pot and delivered to Yunjiu by a robotic arm. Xie Zhiyu keenly caught the flash of disgust in the girl's eyes.

Before he could figure out why the other party disliked him, he felt someone patted his shoulder.

He turned his head, his expression cold, but when he saw that it was the captain, he smiled. Xie Zhiyu nodded to the captain: "You're here?"

"Thank you, Director. These are the clothes you requested." The captain was carrying several exquisitely packaged bags.

Xie Zhiyu took it with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work. I didn't know what you wanted to eat, so I didn't order rashly."

The captain looked at the bags with some reluctance, as these were the clothes he had collected for the master over the past few months.

He didn't know if Miss Yun could wear the shoe size of his master, so he didn't prepare anything.

But there are always a few pieces of clothing whose sizes seem to be acceptable, and the styles and brands of these pieces are exactly what the owner likes.

The rest are his personal quirks... ahem, aesthetics, and he also hopes that the Master will wear them for him to see.

What a pity! What a pity! Those clothes can only be given away when there are better gifts to go with them.

Thinking of this, the captain shook his head without interest: "It doesn't matter, I'll just eat something casually, you can do whatever you want." After that, he went to order food.

He looked just like a resentful husband whose woman had been robbed, and he didn't even bother to use honorifics.

……

Xie Zhiyu was calm and composed. He spent twice as much money to buy this item, and he didn't feel like he was stealing someone else's thing.

After all, the other party doesn’t have to sell it.

He placed the bag on the chair next to Yunjiu and met the girl's gaze, his eyes sweeping across her cheeks that were slightly puffy from chewing, and then falling on the three dishes with varying amounts of remaining food.

Xie Zhiyu asked, "Miss Yun, don't you like eating exotic animal meat?"

Yunjiu swallowed the food in his mouth, nodded, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Anyone who only eats this for two years won't like it, right?"

Xie Zhiyu suddenly realized, but couldn't understand why she ordered this dish.

He looked at the girl who continued to eat and asked, "What else do you want to eat?"

Yunjiu shook her head. She picked up a piece of exotic beast meat that was cut into evenly thin slices by a mechanical arm. Although she looked disgusted, she still put it into her mouth.

"It's okay, this is enough. Although I don't like to eat exotic beast meat, it replenishes a lot of energy."

Xie Zhiyu: ...What an old-fashioned way to replenish energy.

He coughed lightly and said, "If you want to replenish your mental strength, there are special energy potions." As he spoke, he took out three green potions from the particle space.

Yunjiu paused as he stretched out his hand towards the plate of exotic beast meat, but still resolutely picked up his chopsticks, with an inexplicably determined look on his face.

"It's okay. We can't waste food." As she said that, she picked up the piece of meat and stuffed it into her mouth.

Xie Zhiyu was speechless for a moment. He silently placed three potions on the table: "...If you still feel that you lack energy after eating, you can drink it directly."

The captain who had just sat down not far away couldn't help but look sideways.

This guy is really generous. He spent three bottles of these high-level energy potions at once. The key point is that he was still rejected.

Tsk tsk.

While Yunjiu was eating, Xie Zhiyu followed up on the question he had not had time to answer before and briefly explained the origin of the name of natural food.

……

It turns out that natural food refers to all edible plant foods.

In the interstellar era, planets are strictly divided into different categories. In addition to tourist planets, residential planets, and garbage planets, there are also planting planets and breeding planets. (For details on the first three, see Chapter 3.)

Because of the high safety factor of residential planets, every inch of land is valuable in the era of densely populated interstellar space.

There is very little planting area on the inhabited planet, or in other words... there is no dedicated area for planting at all.

Because the proportions of oceans, land, deserts, glaciers, etc. on each planet are different, not all landforms on every planet are habitable, let alone for planting.

Assuming that the habitable area of ​​a planet can reach 50%, even if 25% of the area is used to grow edible plants...

Put aside...

Well, according to current data, it is completely impossible to ignore it.

The reason why natural plants are scarce, apart from the large population and the shortage of supply, the most important fundamental reason lies in the "pollution source" carried in the genes of "insects" and "alien beasts".

As long as the three exist in the same environment, "natural plants" will become "alien plants" due to excessive pollution values.

-

It is spiritual and non-aggressive, and can be raised as an ornamental plant.

But for most plants, after becoming alienated, the first ones to suffer are their "kindred members" around them that have not been completely contaminated.

Therefore, very few natural plants can be preserved.

If the pollution source can be effectively detected and isolated...

Humans and orcs will no longer suffer from the pain of spiritual pollution.

After all, they are also part of the pollution source food chain.

They would rather drink nutritional supplements for the rest of their lives than lose their minds and go crazy.

After all, those with a better ending were exiled to a garbage planet to fend for themselves;

Most of them, after losing their minds and injuring a large number of people, may be told that they have been sentenced for injuring others when they regain their sanity for a short time.

……

Five thousand years ago, as the people of the Imperial Star were also affected by the pollution source, humans and orcs at that time were not collectively called "people of the Imperial Star". Both sides were still confronting each other over racial issues.

At that time, resources were scarce, and both races had already mastered the jump technology for many years. They were also looking for habitable planets between different galaxies and were not aware of each other's existence.

Until the imperial star - 'Volanos' was discovered by both races at the same time.

This is a planet with a "safety factor" of 96%. The safety factor assessment comes from whether there is a "magnetic field" on a planet that can "shield the Zerg."

The stronger the magnetic field, the fewer Zerg species can sense this planet.

Over hundreds of millions of years, being able to find a planet with a 60% safety factor is already very high.

The safety factor of the Imperial Star is unprecedented. After it was discovered, it directly caused a fight for territory between humans and orcs.

You know, the Zerg as a species has the ability to jump between various galaxies.

A "wormhole" is a form in which they form before collectively leaping, which is one of the reasons why wormholes are dangerous.

……

(There are many worldview settings, so I won’t write them in detail for now, because they will be slowly expanded as the plot progresses. For now, you just need to know why natural food is scarce.)

……

In short, before humans and orcs end their internal fighting and their lives become completely stable, their appetite is not enough to make them care about things like planting.

It was not until the establishment of the Federation more than 4,000 years ago that humans and orcs finally made peace, collectively calling themselves the people of the Imperial Star, and began to work together to build their home.

The people of Dixing researched and cultivated a few truly pollution-free natural foods in Volanos.

This kind of natural food can effectively inhibit the increase of pollution value. Similarly, such plants are also very attractive to Zerg.

It was equivalent to them competing for food with the ubiquitous Zerg.

Logically speaking, such an imperial star is more suitable for planting rather than living.

But this view is wrong.

Once large-scale artificial planting is carried out on the Imperial Star, the magnetic field of the Imperial Star itself will probably be "destroyed", attracting more Zerg.

So based on the analysis of scientific data generated during the hundreds of millions of years of searching for habitable planets...

——For each planet with a high safety factor, the most effective way to isolate the Zerg invasion is to maintain the original ecological environment as much as possible and not excessively increase pollution sources.

Since the establishment of the Federation and the stabilization of life, natural food has become increasingly in short supply.

Of course, the target of supply is not the royal family or nobles, but the people who are often exposed to the source of pollution - that is, the federal army.

They carry out the exploration and hunting work that is most susceptible to pollution, and they also need these natural foods the most.

Therefore, the pioneering corps has a certain amount of natural food.
