Chapter 96 A Trip to the Farmhouse
As soon as Shi Jiaojiao entered the room, Xiao Hei rushed over and started to whine and act coquettishly, with a look of condemnation in his eyes.
If you don’t bring a tiger with you when you go out, you might as well sell sweet potatoes.
Shi Jiaojiao moved her tiger head and said, "It's all water outside, what are you going to do?"
In order to comfort Hu Zi who was trapped at home, Mu Ci specially stewed a large pot of meat for him.
After showing off everything, Xiao Hei's depressed mood finally calmed down a little.
The next day, Shi Jiaojiao and Mu Ci were watching a movie when they heard the intercom ringing.
"Jiaojiao, I saw a lot of people salvaging things outside yesterday. Should we go out and try? We haven't been out searching for supplies for a long time. It's not a good idea to just sit around and do nothing."
Wang Jia's tone was filled with worry.
Tang Wei also said, "I agree. In the future, supplies will definitely become harder and harder to find. No matter what it is, if we find more, we may be able to use it in the future. Even if we don't, we can use it to exchange for food in the future."
Shi Jiaojiao thought for a moment and agreed.
Although she and Mu Ci had no shortage of supplies, they couldn't stay upstairs all the time.
Staying in a comfort zone for too long will make people lose their vigilance and sharpness.
And these two things can only be developed through experiencing danger.
But there is still a problem. There are more and more people watching these two floors, so someone must be left behind to watch over them.
I'm not afraid of lighting the light in the front yard, I'm afraid of a fire in the backyard.
Shi Jiaojiao and the other two all looked at Tang Wei.
Everyone is well aware of the bad luck buff on him. If he follows, everyone might return empty-handed.
But Tang Wei frowned, "But it's too dangerous for the three of you to go out. With me here, at least two men can intimidate the other side."
Shi Jiaojiao shook her head. "The task of staying at home is just as difficult. Even if Wang Jia stays, she won't be able to handle it alone if someone comes."
She and Mu Ci must be together. Although there are no conflicts in the small team now, the influence left over from her previous life still makes it impossible for her to trust a person 100%.
She was worried about Mu Ci going out with others.
So he could only choose one between Tang Wei and Wang Jia to stay.
In the end, after voting, Tang Wei was the one who stayed.
However, Shi Jiaojiao also brought Xiao Hei down, so the man and the tiger could keep each other company, and Xiao Hei's fighting ability was also quite strong.
The three of them rushed out of the community in a speedboat, shaking off the envious gazes behind them.
Now, a lot of people must have visited those office buildings and shopping malls that have not been submerged in water, but it would be a waste of time for them to go there.
Mu Ci looked at the map and said, "There is a farmhouse on the mountain in the suburbs. Let's go there first. If we are lucky, we can find a lot of things."
Shi Jiaojiao and Wang Jia had no objection, and the three of them went straight to their destination.
An hour and a half later, the speedboat successfully found the mountain.
At this time, the accumulated water had already reached the middle of the mountain, but the farm house was at the top of the mountain and was not affected at all.
The three of them dragged the speedboat to the ground and covered it with some debris.
Before leaving, Shi Jiaojiao took advantage of Wang Jia's inattention and waved her hand to put the speedboat into the space.
She was worried about leaving it here.
Although she still has a lot of speedboats in her space, she doesn't know how long it will take for this kind of thing to be produced in the future, and she would feel sad if she lost one.
The three of them hurried to the top of the mountain.
Mu Ci walked in front, and Shi Jiaojiao and Wang Jia followed behind.
The three men all had weapons in their hands and did not let down their guard at all.
A horse will die if it runs too fast.
That is the case with them now.
The top of the mountain didn’t look high, but it still took us nearly two hours to finally reach the entrance of the farmhouse.
Shi Jiaojiao looked at the half-collapsed building and realized that it was probably caused by acid rain corrosion.
The three of them walked in cautiously and searched around, but there was no one else.
Everyone then felt relieved and started searching for supplies.
The entire farm house is not big, with only one floor. Because there is a university near the foot of the mountain, the consumption level is not high.
Shi Jiaojiao walked into the kitchen first.
The kitchen here is not small, and there is a warehouse connected to the back.
Because they mainly cook clay pot chicken here, a lot of firewood is used every day, so there is a lot of firewood piled next to one wall of the kitchen.
These should have been saved from the past, and now they are just a bargain for them.
Shi Jiaojiao searched through all the boxes and cabinets.
I didn't expect there would be such a surprise.
Maybe because this place is relatively remote and no one has ever searched for supplies, the food in the kitchen is still stored intact.
However, due to the extreme heat before and the fact that so much time had passed, the stored meat and vegetables had all rotted and dried up.
But apart from these, rice and flour have little effect, and there is a lot of it.
Various condiments were neatly placed on the table.
Although they were all opened, Shi Jiaojiao didn't dislike them and picked out those that were not spoiled.
After all, Tang Wei and Wang Jia really need these things.
When she pushed open the door of the warehouse at the back and saw the light coming through the roof, Shi Jiaojiao's heart sank.
It was not until I saw the entire warehouse clearly that I discovered that half of it had collapsed.
Most of the rice and flour were corroded by acid rain and turned black.
Shi Jiaojiao covered her chest with her hands in pain and searched the entire warehouse before she found five intact bags of rice and flour.
In addition, there were five five-liter barrels of cooking oil that were not corroded by acid rain.
After finishing, she simply used the space cheat to put all the searched items in one place.
She counted the supplies.
There were two 50-kilogram bags of flour, three 50-kilogram bags of rice, and three half-opened bags of rice and flour.
Various seasonings and five barrels of cooking oil.
Some dried shiitake mushrooms, dried black fungus, and dried day lily.
Apart from these, the rest are either broken or corroded by acid rain.
At this time, Shi Jiaojiao just heard Mu Ci calling her.
She hurried over.
Mu Ci searched for accommodation and happened to find the room of the farm stay owner and his wife.
At this time, Mu Ci was holding a jewelry box in his hand.
Shi Jiaojiao leaned over to take a look, and her eyes lit up instantly.
The gold and silver jewelry in the jewelry box were just small things. What surprised her most was that there were five copper coins in it.
"This is the Great Five Emperors' Coin." Mu Ci explained.
Shi Jiaojiao nodded. The value of the Five Emperors' Coins was actually not that high, but she was not going to sell them.
For a golden house, age is enough.
Shi Jiaojiao didn't hesitate and put the entire jewelry box into the golden house.
When the two were about to leave, they saw the photo on the table.
They are a middle-aged couple, and they look very loving in the photo.
But why did they take so long and not come here to look for supplies?
Shi Jiaojiao didn't want to think about the worst outcome.
She took out a tissue, wiped the dust off the photo, and put it back where it was.
Wang Jia hadn't come out yet. Shi Jiaojiao stared at the rice and flour she had found in the kitchen, feeling worried.
There wasn't much space left in the speedboat, and it couldn't carry so many things.
But making more trips would not only waste fuel, but also cause them to worry that others would steal the fruits of their labor.
Mu Ci gently rubbed her brows and said, "Take out a rubber boat from the space."
Shi Jiaojiao looked up and said, "But Wang Jia is here too, so I can't explain it."
Mu Ci said calmly, "What's there to explain? Isn't this what we just found?"
Shi Jiaojiao was skeptical, but still took it out.
And Wang Jia did not disappoint Mu Ci's hopes. She was holding two urea bags in her hands, which were full of supplies she had found. It took her a lot of effort to drag them over.
When I saw the rubber boat in front of me, I cheered in surprise, "Wow! You are so lucky to find a rubber boat!"
