Even if they are transported and stored under refrigeration, over time, the vegetables will turn yellow and become inedible due to dehydration and other reasons.
Under such circumstances, supplying vegetables to a population of 1 billion is a big challenge for transport ships traveling between the surface and space.
Of course, this is bad news for those merchants who still stay on the surface and do vegetable business.
With the large supply of space vegetables on the market, the space station's demand for surface vegetables has been greatly weakened. Even if it is purchased now, it is only to purchase some vegetable varieties that have not been grown in space farmland or have not yet matured.
And half a month later, the second phase of space farmland and pasture came into operation, even if it cut off the wealth of those vegetable merchants and grain merchants.
Because more varieties of vegetables and fruits are grown in the second phase of space farmland to meet the different needs of space station residents.
At the same time, crops such as wheat, rice, barley and other crops in the first phase of space farmland have matured and been harvested one after another, and have been sold in major supermarkets on the space station.
This has caused the space station's demand for food on the surface to begin to decline.
Of course, those grain merchants still have a better life than vegetable merchants.
After all, food has a long storage time. The space station is still purchasing it, but the quantity has been reduced. Even if the space station stops purchasing, the food can still be sold to others.
After all, there are currently more than 800 million people in Xuanyan Country on the surface, and there are even more in other countries.
These days, there are many countries that are not self-sufficient in food.
Only vegetable merchants can now only sell to supermarkets and vegetable markets in cities near the surface, and this channel has been shrinking as the population continues to move into the space station.
Of course, after the second phase of space farmland and pasture was put into operation, the construction of the third phase of space farmland and pasture also began.
Compared with the previous two phases of space farmland and pasture, the third phase of space farmland and pasture plans has more plans.
There are 50,000 space farmlands and 20,000 pastures!
One is because Fang Xiaoyue now needs to prepare for the comprehensive relocation of humans from their home planet.
The second is to improve the happiness of space station residents, which requires a large amount of natural meat and oil investment.
In fact, in the third phase of space farmland, there will be at least 10,000 dedicated to growing cash crops.
For example, sugar cane produces sugar, rapeseed, sunflowers, palm trees, etc. produce oil.
After all, whether there are abundant commodities such as sugar, oil, etc. on the market actually reflects the level of human living standards.
Like the ancient dynasties, no matter how well they developed, sugar, oil and other commodities were still scarce in the market.
To put it simply, even a small landowner with hundreds of acres of land cannot eat meat every day.
As for sugar, it was a luxury product in any dynasty.
Therefore, if you want people on the space station to live a good life and have a sense of happiness, these things are essential.
If there are aliens driving a spacecraft to the vicinity of the home star at this time, they will see millions of transport ships transporting shiploads of building materials from the distant asteroid belt in the space near the home star. , and then there are billions of engineering robots building crystal clear buildings in space.
It should be said that the efficiency of these engineering robots is extremely high.
Due to abundant energy, they can work 24 hours a day.
Of course, due to the large amount of work, even if billions of engineering robots were started at the same time, the third phase of space farmland and pasture took two months to complete.
Prior to this, the second phase of space farmland has also entered the harvest period.
The space ranch has also begun to produce chickens, ducks, geese, eggs and other agricultural and sideline products.
As for the third phase of space farmland and pasture being put into operation, it means that the space station can support the normal consumption of 6 billion people.
There are currently about 8 billion humans on the entire mother planet.
According to the current construction speed, space farmland and pasture can fully support all mankind.
Relocated to the space station.
Of course, the only problem is that there are not enough space stations.
After all, in order to fully start the construction of space farmland and pasture, Fang Xiaoyue invested 90% of the engineering robots in this project, which also slowed down the construction of the space station.
So far, there are only 75 space stations, which can accommodate a population of 1.5 billion.
This is not surprising, after all, the construction of a space station is completely different from space farmland and pasture.
Space farmland and pasture only need to consider light transmittance, construction speed and a certain degree of solidity.
The space station is for people to live in, so it requires more considerations in all aspects, such as a complete gravity system, air conditioning system, emergency safety evacuation system, defense system, etc.
Under such considerations, the construction speed of a space station of the same size is only 1% of that of space farmland.
In other words, it takes the investment and time to build 100 space farmlands to build a space station.
After all, it takes a lot of time to mine the metal and steel needed to build the space station, and then it needs to be smelted, purified, and a series of other processes to shape it into the parts used to build the space station.
The silicon crystals needed for space farmland only need to be directly melted by the concentrated ultra-high-temperature sunlight from abandoned asteroids and meteorites after collecting metal ores, and are directly shaped, without high performance requirements. .
However, at this time, some powerful countries have contacted Xuanyan Kingdom, hoping that Xuanyan Kingdom can provide some places to stay in the space station.
It should be said that these powerful countries were not willing to deal with Xuanyan Country before.
After all, it is normal for powerful countries not to deal with each other.
If you want to ask for something from the other party, you have to pay a price.
Powerful countries like Choudras and Tedra had suffered a lot at the hands of Xuanyan Country before.
Therefore, they are not willing to bow to Xuanyan Kingdom unless they have to.
But the problem is that with the current development of the situation, smart people can see that the surface of the earth is not a good place anymore.
The gigantic biological incident of Ugly Dras is constantly expanding its impact.
So far, thirty-four cities in the five states north of Choudras have been attacked by gray wolves and grizzly bears, with a total death of more than 1.7 million people.
At the same time, strange events also occurred in a state south of Choudras.
A large number of cave bats suddenly mutated and began to attack humans. A group of hundreds of bats could suck the blood of an adult man to death in just a few minutes. This made the locals afraid to go out at night.
And the incident of Tedra's plane turning into a fish became more and more intense.
Whenever there is a plane in the sky, no matter what kind of plane you are, you will turn into a fish and fly away.
This ultimately led to the bankruptcy of those airlines.
Of course, not even Tedra's fighter jets dared to fly into the sky.
It should be said that although Tedra did not suffer as many casualties as Choudras at this time, it suffered a greater blow in terms of economy, people's livelihood, etc.
The entire country is on the verge of collapse, companies large and small are rushing to go bankrupt, and the rich are fleeing Tedla on ships.
Tedra's economic growth fell to more than -30% this year due to disruptions in the aviation industry.
For an island country, this is simply a disaster.
After all, Tedra was originally an export-oriented economy focusing on financial services.
As for the Gaul Kingdom, the ever-expanding mutant vines have frightened the entire Blast Furnace Kingdom, and many people fled the south with their children.
In short, the current situation of several powerful countries is not very good.
Of course, they are not fools.
They have long known about the news that Xuanyan people are moving into the space station in large numbers.
It's just that their senior management didn't believe that Xuan Yanguo's space station could support the occupancy of so many people.
After all, up to now, they spend that much every year
At such a high cost, only a few hundred people can be sent into space.
Every day astronauts spend in space costs hundreds of thousands on the ground.
But as time went by, they gradually learned that Xuan Yanguo had built a large number of space stations in space and sent a billion people into space!
At this time, high-level officials in many countries began to look for escape options for themselves and their relatives.
As I said before, floor watches are no longer safe.
Powerful countries such as Choudras and Tedras are okay and can support them to some extent, but those small countries cannot.
Many small countries with populations of millions or hundreds of thousands are now in name only because of the exodus of large numbers of people due to the influence of strange events.
In this way, under the leadership of several powerful countries in Choudras, almost all countries in the world are putting pressure on Xuanyan Country to obtain a quota to stay in the space station.
Of course, considering the current national strength of Yan State, such pressure is not too great.
But considering the future of the entire human race, Xuan Yanguo finally made a concession after negotiating with Fang Xiaoyue.
Xuan Yanguo temporarily allocated 500 million to stay in the space station.
Of course, this was not for nothing. Afterwards, the Xuanyan Congress held a series of talks with various countries to determine the terms of exchange.
Such as technology, resources, etc.
After all, in the words of Xuan Yanguo, the construction of the space station is too expensive. If you want to take advantage, you can take advantage, but you must also come up with something.
Of course, the 500 million quota is not given to one country, so while negotiating with Xuan Yanguo, various countries are also negotiating for quotas.
In the end, more than 200 countries in the world finally reached an agreement on the allocation of quotas.
To put it simply, the most important distribution principle is to distribute according to the population, while economics, technology, etc. are only used as auxiliary options.
In this way, Choudras was allocated 100 million people, Tedras was allocated 10 million people, and Gaul was allocated 10 million people...
This is not surprising. Udras has a total population of 400 million. It ranks second in the world in terms of military, technology, etc., so it is allocated a quota of 100 million. Although other countries are dissatisfied, they are not Dare to say anything more.
Although powerful countries such as Tetra and Gaul were only allocated 10 million people, their populations were only over 40 million, so they were not small.
For example, some countries with a population of more than 1.2 billion are only allocated 80 million places due to their poor international status, military, economy, technology, etc.
Of course, the country is very dissatisfied.
But the problem is that this country really can't offer any conditions in exchange, so countries feel that it is very unfair that it can get 80 million places.
After the quota was determined, Fang Xiaoyue immediately asked the AI intelligence to send transport ships to various parts of the world to transport the humans who had obtained the quota to the space station.
The humans who received the quota did not exceed Fang Xiaoyue's expectations. Most of them were rich men, entrepreneurs, scientific researchers and even officials from various countries.
Even the top leaders of some small countries boarded transport ships, completely ignoring the lives of the remaining people. As a result, the social security in these small countries rapidly deteriorated, and the entire society began to collapse.
If Xuanyan Country hadn't sent robots to these small countries to help maintain stability, these small countries would have wiped themselves out.
In the following time, Fang Xiaoyue accelerated the construction of the space station.
After all, so far, there are about 1.7 billion humans living in the space station, and there are still 6.3 billion humans left on the entire home planet!
This is an extremely large number, and as weird events continue to break out and spread, millions of people are being lost every day.
Fang Xiaoyue will never allow such a situation to happen.
But the problem is that the construction speed of the space station is still a bit slow.
However, after Fang Xiaoyue devoured and fused several more weird fogs, she finally reached
The upper limit of strength allowed in this world.
To put it simply, if he continues to make breakthroughs, he will naturally be excluded from this world. This world cannot accommodate the existence of higher power.
Of course, after reaching the upper limit of strength in this world, Fang Xiaoyue will be able to open the passage to the Kingdom of God.
Fang Xiaoyue, who had just recovered from an inexplicable state, carefully opened the passage to the Kingdom of God immediately.
Of course, opening the passage to the Kingdom of God requires breaking the world barrier on a small scale, so in an instant, a large dark cloud gathered above his head, and thunder roared.
He opened the passage to the Kingdom of God at an extremely fast speed, and then ingested several metal life forms from the Kingdom of God.
At this time, a bolt of lightning full of destructive energy had already fallen.
Although Fang Xiaoyue was able to withstand the lightning strike, he still quickly closed the passage to the Kingdom of God.
No way, opening the channel to the Kingdom of God when the world consciousness is full of extreme hostility consumes too much destiny points.
In just a few seconds, he consumed a full 50,000 destiny points.
Of course, the destiny points consumed are actually used to fight against the hostility of world consciousness. Otherwise, the power of that lightning will be hundreds of times greater, and it can even wipe out a space in an instant.
On the contrary, the metal life forms taken out from the kingdom of God are not hostile to the world consciousness, but are blessed by the world consciousness.
This is not surprising. The emergence of metallic life forms is equivalent to adding a special kind of life form to this world.
This is good for the development of the world.
