Farming for Survival in the Apocalypse

Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...

Chapter 71 Good Luck

Chapter 71 Good Luck

In view of the current global rainfall background and the fact that there will be drought in the second half of the year, the Qinghe Alliance decided after a meeting to mobilize the masses and work together to store vegetables for autumn and winter.

Therefore, Qinghe TV invited two groups of guests. Each group is equipped with agricultural experts, wilderness survival experts, little chefs who can eat everything, and popular little stars. They will take turns to form groups of four every day to explore the mysteries of nature together.

In fact, to put it bluntly, every morning the four of them draw lots to choose a direction, and then set off in that direction until they encounter a hill or a forest.

The four people walked into the forest, with a wilderness survival expert leading the way, introducing wilderness survival skills to everyone and reminding them of things they need to pay attention to.

Agricultural experts tell everyone the names and uses of the plants they encounter. Most importantly, they tell everyone whether these plants are poisonous or not and whether they are edible, such as wild vegetables and fruits, flower petals, wild mushrooms, and edible tree leaves.

The little chef is responsible for collecting edible plants. As long as they are edible, they will be collected without considering whether they taste good or not.

As for the little star, he was just a logistics support staff along the way, running errands, moving sacks and so on.

When they had collected almost all the information, they returned to the studio along the same route.

This is when the little stars will play a big role. Under the guidance of the little chefs, they will clean the ingredients, take out a portion of the ingredients, and have the little chefs cook the food according to different methods, and then invite agricultural experts and wild survival masters to taste it.

The two of them always give fair comments and don't just blindly flatter.

The little celebrity explained to everyone in front of the screen that the most important thing at the moment is to collect the ingredients, and the taste can only be considered secondary. Everything in the program must be authentic in order to give everyone the correct guidance.

What I mean is, I have already told you what is delicious, it is up to you whether you believe it or not, and whether you have a good eye and how much you can collect depends on yourself, the quicker the better!

After everyone had processed the food, the young chef took out the remaining ingredients and instructed everyone on how to make dried vegetables, which was the key point.

At the end of the show, the little star was still calling on everyone to go to nearby parks or mountains in the countryside to look for edible ingredients, and called on everyone to hurry up and store the ingredients to at least ensure that they can eat until the end of the year.

"Foraging for Food in the Mountains" is like this. The guests have to go out to find ingredients every day and teach the audience how to process these ingredients. They are very tired every day, but considering that they are like weather vanes, they grit their teeth and persevere.

However, it seems that "Foraging for Food in the Mountains", which has been aired for a few days, has not yet had any influence. At least Bi Qiaoan has not seen ordinary viewers going out to forage for food.

When the show was over, it was already half past eleven, and Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were once again preparing to go out in the rain.

They are not like other people who have to wait until almost twelve o'clock to go out. They always leave early and try to avoid people.

The next day, the two were sleeping soundly when Shen Yanming's phone rang.

"Who is it?" Bi Qiaoan was in a bad mood when he woke up, and was about to grab his phone with a huff.

Shen Yanming quickly muted his phone, "It's Heping, be good, you continue to sleep, I'll go see what's wrong with him."

Bi Qiaoan hummed, hid under the quilt and ignored him.

Shen Yanming tiptoed out of the bedroom, only to find that his door was slammed.

"Why did you open the door just now? I've been knocking on it for a long time!" Zhang Heping started complaining as soon as he saw Shen Yanming.

"It's only a few hours now and you're calling me. You've disturbed Qiao An's sleep, okay?" Shen Yanming was also a little grumpy after waking up. "What's the matter with the call?"

"It's already half past nine and you two are still asleep. Tsk, you're so lazy!"

Shen Yanming's face darkened, and he was about to close the door, but Zhang Heping quickly stopped him, "Hey, I'm a bad mouth, blame me! I just want you to help me clean up the house."

Shen Yanming pinched his brows, put the key in, and followed Zhang Heping to 1601. A few steps away, Shen Yanming asked, "Why do you need help to clean up the house?"

Zhang Heping didn't say much, he just opened the door and invited Shen Yanming in.

Seeing Shen Yanming's indescribable expression, Zhang Heping slowly told the story of the Song family.

After hearing this, Shen Yanming patted Zhang Heping's shoulder sympathetically and said, "A blessing in disguise. Maybe your uncle will be grateful to you in the future!"

"How is that possible? My uncle must hate me to death. He is a very respectable person!"

Shen Yanming looked at the new bedding in the living room and asked, "Where did you get all this from?"

Zhang Heping curled his lips, "Isn't it ironic? I called my aunt so many times, asking her to take Song Qingqing away, but she always said she was busy and didn't have time."

Zhang Heping stroked the quilts and said, "But you see, once the Song family got into trouble, she went to the mall to buy these quilts on the same day. If I wasn't busy with work, I think they would have been delivered to me on the same day. The Song family wouldn't have to spend a night in the police station."

"What about you? Why are you back today?"

"My aunt called me every day to harass me. I thought the hospital wasn't very busy these two days, so I asked for leave and came back. As soon as I got out of the elevator, I saw my aunt piled up things at the door."

"Where's the old quilt?"

"My aunt took it back."

Shen Yanming chuckled, "She will be grateful to you in the future, absolutely."

Zhang Heping looked at Shen Yanming suspiciously, and Shen Yanming didn't keep him in suspense, "You're lucky, kid. There are purchase restrictions now. If your aunt had been two or three days later, you wouldn't have been able to buy these things."

"So, I am still benefiting from the Song family?"

Hehe, hehe, hehe...

Afterwards, Shen Yanming helped Zhang Heping clean up the bedroom and put the new bedding back under the bed and in the cabinet. "You should pay more attention and grow some vegetables at home. Last time you said you wanted to grow some, but you didn't do it."

Zhang Heping sighed, "You think I don't want to? The hospital is full every day and I can't even go home."

"Then why did you come back today?"

"It's because the energy rain is so powerful. Those with serious illnesses got better immediately after being showered by the rain, and those with minor illnesses were able to be discharged the next day. There aren't many patients in the hospital these two days, so I was able to come back."

"You've been caught in the rain these past two days, right? No matter what, take care of yourself."

Zhang Heping nodded. "It would be fine if I didn't know, but after experiencing it once, I couldn't bear to miss it. After a few days of energy rain, all my occupational diseases have been cured."

Zhang Heping looked at the pot of blueberries that he had brought from Shen Yanming's house. There were only a few fruits left on it, and he felt very distressed. "If I had planted vegetables earlier, they would probably have been ruined by them."

Shen Yanming patted Zhang Heping's shoulder and said, "It's okay. I'll plant with you later."

Zhang Heping smiled and nodded, "If you don't help me, I'll go to your house."
