Transmigrating to Ancient Times to Escape Famine, I Have a Treasure Chest So I Don't Panic

One year brought a great drought, the next year floods, and then, in a blink, a plague.

The Xu family fled from the north to the south, and then from the south back to the north.

Before...

Chapter 291 Xu Ning is used to being a hands-off boss

The sky soon brightened completely. After Wang Lan and his companions had a simple meal, Xu Ning conscripted them into the army.

The ship that Xu Ning and his companions took when they arrived was quite large, but they brought only a few people, only a dozen or so. In the cabin, apart from some food and daily necessities, the rest was filled with kerosene.

From the moment they set out from Haicheng, Xu Ning made the worst-case scenario plan. If he couldn't completely eliminate the cannibals in the end, he would burn down the entire island.

So, Xu Ning brought enough kerosene to burn down an island.

However, judging from the current situation, we don’t need that much kerosene.

In the cave where the cannibals lived, some wild beasts were poisoned before they even entered the cave. After eating the cannibals' flesh, they were drugged and now lay in a mess with the cannibals' corpses.

Xu Ning, observing the mosquito robot's surveillance footage, saw that some wild animals had eaten the corpses outside the cave, apparently unaware of the danger. Without a second thought, Xu Ning ordered his men to follow the blood trail, locate the unconscious animals in their own caves, and then kill and incinerate them.

Even then, Xu Ning still felt uneasy. The island was covered in bloodstains and signs of wild beasts dragging their tails. Add to that the cannibals' range of activities, and the entire island seemed fraught with danger. After careful consideration, Xu Ning finally decided: "Burn the entire island!"

As the order was given, the fire quickly spread to the entire island. The raging fire burned, turning the entire island into a sea of ​​fire.

Xu Ning and his companions had already retreated to the boat, watching the scene from afar. Although they were quite far away from the shore, they could still feel the scorching heat coming towards them.

Qi Canglan and the others witnessed the entire island transform into a flaming mountain, and an indescribable shock welled up in their hearts. They stared silently at the island in the sea of ​​fire, as if time had frozen in this moment.

Xu Ning recalled all the mosquito robots and redeployed them. Some were placed in various corners of the two ships to monitor the surrounding situation, while the others were sent back to the valley to monitor the periphery of the valley at all times.

The fire on the Cannibal Island burned for three days and three nights. After the fire was finally extinguished, Xu Ning took his men on a small boat and circled the island. He only returned to Haicheng after making sure that everything was safe.

As soon as Xu Ning returned to Haicheng, he handed everyone over to Pei Yongjun and became a hands-off boss.

After Xu Ning slept for a day and a night, Qi Canglan came to her house and banged on her door.

Xu Ning turned over, took out his earplugs, put them on and continued to sleep soundly.

Qi Canglan had no choice but to break in while Xu Ning was eating.

"Xu Ning, are you still making money? How long do you plan to sleep?" The mall's plan was disrupted by the cannibal issue. Now that the cannibal issue has been resolved, Qi Canglan has become more concerned about the business.

He has been in Haicheng for some time, but there has been no progress, so he doesn't dare to report to Jiang Yan.

"It's not just you and me who are doing this business. Why are you in such a hurry? It's such a big cake. If you don't have more people to share it with, people will die of stuffing." Xu Ning looked leisurely, which made Qi Canglan even more anxious and angry.

"Then we can think about it first and then brainstorm."

"I don't want to do it. Go out and don't disturb me. If you keep arguing, I won't do it anymore. I'll lie down." Xu Ning glanced at him, as if to say, "If you force me again, I'll leave." Qi Canglan was stunned.

"Okay, okay, okay." What a jerk! Qi Canglan quickly left Xu Ning's room, but he didn't know who to look for for a moment. Pei Yongjun and the Minister of Agriculture were both delayed by matters related to the cannibals, and he didn't know what to say to Cui Yong.

Xu Ning, the only person he could talk to, didn't want to pay attention to him. Finally, Qi Canglan thought about it and went to find his good friend Qi Songbo, who was the county magistrate.

Xu Ningke didn't care what he thought. She was not in a hurry now. She would deal with the mall matters after everyone gathered.

Here, Xu Ning drove Qi Canglan away, turned around and watched the changes in the valley through the monitor with Xu Yuan and Xu Feng.

Xu Feng would contact Old Mrs. Xu and her family every once in a while to inform his family of the latest developments.

However, he didn't mention the cannibal incident. This time, Xu Ning planned to tell Old Lady Xu and the others in person.

After exchanging for the mosquito robot, Xu Ning quickly bargained with the treasure chest and exchanged for a new monitor, which Xu Ning sent to the valley through the treasure chest.

Xu Ning put wireless headphones on Xu Feng and Xu Yuan in advance, and then wrote a letter to tell Xu An how to operate it. Finally, the two sides saw each other through the monitor, and everyone's face was full of unconcealable shock.

Of course, except Xu Ning.

"Daya, is this a magic spell from the gods?" Old Mrs. Xu carefully touched the edge of the monitor. Even though she had seen the magic of these things again and again, she still couldn't stop the shock in her heart.

Xu Ning looked at Old Lady Xu's pious expression, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Grandma, this is not a magic spell from the gods, it's just a technological means."

"Technological means? What is that?" Old Mrs. Xu asked in confusion.

"To put it simply, it is to use some scientific knowledge and technology to achieve a certain function or purpose. For example, this display allows us to see each other even if we are far apart," Xu Ning explained.

Old Mrs. Xu nodded, not quite understanding: "So that's how it is."

Xu Ning smiled and said, "By the way, grandma, I have something else to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Old Mrs. Xu asked curiously.

Xu Ning took a deep breath and said slowly, "Grandma, actually, there were cannibals here a while ago..."

As Xu Ning continued his story, the expressions of Old Lady Xu and the others became increasingly serious. They only breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Xu Ning had resolved the threat of the cannibals.
