349: Chapter 349 Is this a granary?

Wait!

The other party's meaning...!

"You mean, this place was artificially transformed??"

Long Anyou quickly reacted.

He licked his dry lips, feeling as if his skin was about to crack!

Thinking back to the scenes he had witnessed on the road before.

This was not the first oasis they had seen like this.

Then looking at the other party's name.

Eden No. 87... that meant there were eighty-six before this one!

As for whether there were more after, that remained to be seen.

But if he hadn't guessed wrong, there must be a massive undertaking behind this!

Building an oasis in the desert—this was already a miracle among miracles!

Yet so many cases had been successful...

Long Anyou couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.

He turned his head and looked at Lin Heng.

"This... was all done by you?"

"Otherwise?"

Lin Heng just smiled faintly.

"I thought the vegetation coverage rate in Africa was a bit low. It's not easy to sustain people on land like this, so I had these people start afforestation a long time ago. After a few years, there are finally some results."

Pfft...!

A few years' time?

Long Anyou and the others couldn't help themselves and almost spat it out.

But soon, they remembered that Lin Heng had gone out for part-time work during the Labor Day holiday, and it seemed he had gone to Africa...

They had wondered what he was doing, but it turned out he was planting trees in Africa!

However, such a massive project succeeding in just a few short years demonstrated the scope of Lin Heng's planning in this area.

"Let's go. The wind and sand outside are too strong. We should go inside and take a look."

Lin Heng said, taking the initiative to walk inside.

Long Anyou and the others finally understood, following closely behind Lin Heng as they slowly walked into Eden.

At the same time, they felt uneasy in their hearts.

Utterly shocked.

As Long Anyou and the others kept entering, they discovered that the surrounding sandstorms seemed to be gradually diminishing. By the time they reached the boundaries of Eden, the sandstorms had completely vanished.

The tall, straight trees around them shielded them from the wind and rain, blocking all the sandstorms of the African desert outside!

Even the surrounding air felt noticeably fresher!

If they settled here, it would absolutely be an excellent decision!

At this point, Long Anyou and the others couldn't help but marvel at the magic of nature!

Rumble...!

And at this moment, they soon heard the sound of mechanical roaring.

Huh?

The group turned their heads and quickly noticed a giant machine slowly moving ahead.

Wheat constantly poured out of the hopper—golden, plump kernels with an indescribable texture.

Vast swathes of wheat were being harvested...

Don't underestimate how slow the giant machine moved; its sheer size was imposing!

One row finished, and in just a few seconds, an acre of land was completely harvested, and the straw was pulverized and scattered back onto the soil.

Given Africa's natural conditions, ordinary crops could be harvested four times a year!

Plus Lin Heng's seeds from Long Country...

Heavens!

Who knows how quickly these people could solve the domestic food problem.

Long Anyou and the others' mouths twitched.

What they cared about wasn't the continuously harvesting giant machine; what truly caught their attention was the fertile land stretching for thousands of miles!

It seemed endless!

At first, they all thought this so-called Eden was just a temporary grain planting base.

Indeed...

It was indeed a temporarily constructed planting base.

But they didn't say this place was this huge!

Perhaps next year, the African continent would not only satisfy their own living needs but even be able to export to other places!

What?

You tell me Africa is barren land?

Then I'll have to have a serious talk with you!

It might be that powerful nations ranked high in the world someday will need food aid from Africa!

Long Anyou and the others swallowed hard, their hearts already churning with turbulent waves.

By now, they had completely forgotten the purpose of their visit. They just stood there blankly, staring ahead with bitter expressions.

Lin Heng, meanwhile, was exchanging words with the people here.

"Mhm, hurry up and go, be quick to return."

Lin Heng spoke calmly.

A local manager heard this, nodded, and quickly turned to leave.

"Come sit with me for a while."

Lin Heng turned back, glanced at Long Anyou and the others, and spoke in a calm tone.

Upon hearing this, the group snapped back to reality.

They licked their dry lips, exchanged glances, nodded quickly, and then followed closely behind Lin Heng.

Their destination this time was a huge colored steel shed.

Just looking at the facade, they knew the inside was terrifyingly vast!

The width alone was already over twenty meters, let alone the length!

It was probably well over a hundred meters long!

Long Anyou and the others walked with growing apprehension. They didn't know why, but after coming to the backward Africa, they had been shocked again and again!

"This is where we store grain."

"We'll wait here for a moment. I've already sent someone to notify them; they'll be here shortly,"

Lin Heng said casually.

Long Anyou and the others nodded woodenly.

They had already been completely stunned by their surroundings and were speechless.

Soon, they arrived inside the warehouse.

Immediately, Long Anyou and the others froze in place, staring wide-eyed, clearly extremely shocked!

"This..."

After a moment of silence, Long Anyou licked his lips, which were about to crack from dryness.

He pointed towards the granary ahead, somewhat speechless.

"This is your granary?"

Before their eyes! The granary, whose capacity was unknowable, was entirely piled high with grain!

They were practically overflowing with wealth!

And!

This was only Granary No. 8!

There were seven others before this one!

And there were seven more after this one!

The grain inside was probably enough to feed the entire African continent??

Long Anyou guessed internally.

One must remember that such an Eden was only ranked as No. 87...

Calculating carefully, the output behind this...

They felt foolish for ever worrying if the people in Africa would starve!

Who could have imagined that Lin Heng would solve their food problem as soon as he arrived?

Only now did Long Anyou understand why Lin Heng's status in Africa was so high. If it were them, if Lin Heng had made such a huge contribution, they would probably worship him like a deity!

"Mhm... Africa currently has quite a bit of grain. With this, we won't have to worry about food shortages for the next few decades,"

Lin Heng commented lightly.

"If possible, next I plan to expand to a few other crops, as you know, wheat and potatoes alone don't have much competitiveness internationally."
