Game World: Starting Through Cyberpunk

In the cyberpunk world, the Great Crash of 1994 triggered a series of aftereffects, including a global food shortage in 2002.

Crop yields are drastically reduced worldwide, and the special crop GM wheat takes up a lot of arable land, which has also led to a significant increase in the cost of ordinary crops.

The world's oil crisis happened a long time ago, in response to the energy crisis, scientists developed a high-sugar genetically modified wheat, and used it as raw material to synthesize a special chemical called "alcohol two".

And this alcohol two is the most important energy source in the cyberpunk world, whether it is running on the road or flying in the sky, it is alcohol two.

In order to provide enough energy for the world, most of the arable land is used to grow high-sugar genetically modified wheat, which makes ordinary crops scarce and precious.

As a result, unprofitable companies started their minds on food, which is why synthetic foods appeared.

The raw materials of synthetic food are actually some high-protein bugs farmed in captivity, such as crickets and earthworms.

In addition to high-protein bugs, biotechnology companies are also vigorously developing cultivated meat, and people can even use their own cells to customize a steak, saying that it is a steak, in fact, it should be beef-flavored steak to be precise, which is very outrageous.

Later, because an infectious disease caused by poultry plunged Night City into crisis tracking, the Bird Extinction Act was successfully introduced, and many animals were implicated in the process of exterminating birds, and only private pets were spared.

However, if you want to have a pet in Night City, you need to pay a high tax, which is why not only can you not see birds in Night City, but the rest of the animals are rarely seen.

It is precisely because of this epidemic that Night City classifies fresh products as prohibited products, prohibits people from selling fresh meat privately, and also spreads the remark that eating raw meat will have a great possibility of infectious diseases.

In fact, all this is paving the way for the popularity of synthetic foods.

For the people of Night City, eating synthetic food has become commonplace, and even many people don't know that the meat they eat is made of bugs.

However, Jiang Heng couldn't stand this at all, he could endure anything, but he would never compromise when it came to eating!

To this end, Jiang Heng did not hesitate to buy some animal meat from the black market, and also spent a lot of money to get some vegetable seeds, and then turned the lawn garden of his apartment into a vegetable garden.

Even in order to speed up the growth of vegetables in his garden, Jiang Heng built a glass greenhouse for them, and then spent a lot of money to install a temperature control system and irrigation system.

It can only be said that this kind of earth is really a talent skill in the genes of the dragon country.

The meal that Jiang Heng invited Lucy to eat today was just the simplest home-cooked meal before crossing over, but in Night City, it was a high-grade food that only powerful people could enjoy.

Companies make up lies about how dangerous animal meat is, giving people "mush" made of bugs, but in fact they themselves are still enjoying the freshest steak and the freshest vegetables.

It has to be said that in the cyberpunk world, the energy of the company is too great, and they control almost everything about people.

......

The dishes were brought to the table, and the two of them were seated separately.

"These meats, in fact, I bought them from the black market, as for the vegetables, some are bought on the black market, and some are grown by myself, oh~ Do you see those greenhouses outside?" Inside are some of the crops I grow. "

Jiang Heng pointed out the window and explained to Lucy the source of these ingredients.

Listening to this, Lucy looked out the window, and only then noticed that some crops in those glass greenhouses had grown very tall.

Looking at those fresh crops, Lucy's eyes were full of curiosity, she really had never seen such crops growing in the ground.

"Okay, let's leave those crops alone, let's try the food I made first, it's not delicious when it's cold." Seeing that Lucy was attracted by the vegetable garden, Jiang Heng opened his mouth to remind.

"Then tell me what these dishes are." Hearing Jiang Heng's words, coupled with the rich aroma of the meal, Lucy was also moved.

"Ahem, then you can listen well, this dish is called shredded fish fragrant meat, which belongs to the famous Sichuan cuisine, one of the eight major cuisines of the Dragon Kingdom." Jiang Heng introduced proudly.

When it comes to food, the people of the Dragon Kingdom definitely have the right to speak.

"Shredded fish? This is stir-fried with fish? Lucy asked curiously.

"Uh... No, it is ordinary pork stir-fried, but it is made into the aroma of fish using magical cooking methods. "

"So it is."

Jiang Heng continued to introduce the next dish, today's lunch is a standard three-course soup, the three dishes are shredded fish and meat, spicy chicken, and a simple vegetarian dish fried shredded potatoes with green pepper.

As for the soup, it's carrot and corn stew rib soup.

They were simple, homely dishes, but they dazzled Lucy.

Lucy, where did you see these foods before? She basically eats some synthetic meats such as burgers, meat skewers and the like, and the taste of these things is really indescribable.

The ingredients themselves are very garbage, the cooking technology is not good, the preparation is simply pig food, and the rich dogs are estimated to walk away disappointed when they smell it.

"Okay, the dish is introduced, then let's eat, by the way, I almost forgot that there is another thing."

After introducing the dishes to Lucy, Jiang Heng immediately announced that it would be eaten, but then he found that both of their bowls were still empty, and immediately picked up Lucy's bowl.

"What's the difference?" Lucy asked curiously.

"Rice!" Jiang Heng replied.

Speaking of this rice, it was Jiang Heng who spent a considerable price to get it, and in the past month, the money he got for doing tasks was basically spent on food.
