Chapter 57 Seafood Feast

Hearing Jiang Huaizhi say that, Ling Ran seized the opportunity and said, "I have something to do right now."

Jiang Huaizhi: "? Miss Ling, please speak."

"I'm going to Ning City this afternoon to buy a car, preferably a military one that's been modified."

"May I ask, Miss Ling, what is your purpose in going to Ning City?"

"Find supplies."

"Alright." Having confirmed that Ling Ran wasn't leaving the Southern Province base immediately, Jiang Huaizhi generously said, "But forget about the car. Miss Ling has helped us so much; it's just a small car, we'll give it to you. Do you need any firearms?"

Ling Ran was about to refuse when Pei Xiu, who had just finished cooking seafood and was carrying a basin in the yard, heard her and used his speed-type superpower to reach her legs in a few steps, squatting down and looking at her with puppy-dog eyes.

"..."

I always feel that this younger brother is a bit of a disgrace.

Ling Ran forced a stiff smile at Jiang Huaizhi and said, "Then I'll leave it to Manager Jiang."

Upon hearing this, Pei Xiu quickly smiled ingratiatingly at Jiang Huaizhi, "Please."

Which boy doesn't want to handle a gun?

The only way to get your hands on a real gun is to join the army. Pei Xiu thought he would never have the chance in his life, but unexpectedly, he got his own gun in this way.

Jiang Huaizhi nodded: "Then I'll see how to arrange it."

Pei Xiu immediately greeted him happily, "Manager Jiang, eat more later."

After saying that, under Ling Ran's disdainful gaze, he immediately picked up the basin and left. Zhou Hang then moved closer to him, and the two whispered to each other.

However, after the apocalypse, those with superpowers have sharp hearing and eyesight, so whispering to them is no different than saying it in their ear.

At noon, we had a seafood feast.

People are tired of seafood.

However, the seafood that Liu Xiuping cooked was different from the ordinary steamed or stir-fried seafood eaten at the base. It was loaded with all kinds of ingredients, which made everyone think that it was worth a try.

Liu Xiuping made spicy crab and scallion and ginger crab, and there was still a lot of crab left over. She extracted a lot of crab roe from the crab and made crab roe soup dumplings.

The crayfish were prepared in two flavors: spicy crayfish and garlic crayfish. The octopus was prepared in two flavors: spicy octopus and casserole-baked octopus. The fish were prepared in three flavors: pickled fish, steamed fish, and grilled fish. The remaining shellfish, seafood, and mantis shrimp were all steamed together.

A table full of dishes, plus two large rice cookers of fluffy white rice, looks so delicious it makes your mouth water.

This rice cooker isn't the kind of ordinary rice cooker used in households before the apocalypse; it's the kind of large rice cooker used in canteens, enough to feed a dozen or so people before the apocalypse.

However, after the apocalypse, everyone has awakened their superpowers and consumes even more energy. In short, everyone now is a big eater like before the apocalypse.

As one's superpowers improve, one can eat more. Of course, one can also reduce one's food intake by absorbing energy from crystal cores.

Looking at the table full of dishes, Fei Fei felt somewhat glad he had come.

He wasn't really interested when Sister Ling suggested a seafood feast. But now, he's quite interested.

"This is what a seafood feast should be like!" Fei Fei couldn't help but secretly suggest, "Manager Jiang, could you suggest to the cafeteria that seafood be prepared this way from now on?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Hu Shuo stepped on his foot under the table: "Captain, you stepped on me."

Hu Shuo: "...I'm sorry."

"fine."

Ling Ran watched this scene, then looked at Hu Shuo. The latter sensed it, and the two locked eyes, everything unspoken.
