Chapter 129: Shen Que, it's time to eat watermelon
"Oh right." Meng Ci suddenly thought of the space for growing vegetables, so he took Chen Que outside the house.
"Shen Que, the physical work will be yours from now on."
During the ten minutes or so that Shen Que had been in Meng Ci's space, he had been shocked beyond belief.
After all, before rebirth, there were several people who awakened space abilities, but Shen had never heard of anyone whose space had the function of preserving freshness and allowing people to enter.
What's more, seeing these things stored in the space made me even more shocked.
Considering that the Meng family is the richest family in City M, it is not surprising that they can buy these.
As for Shen Que himself, he only had some retirement pay and the money he had saved from working in the past few years, so he only bought some important supplies.
As for other supplies, they were all purchased for free.
Because the space is too small, the only things I stockpile are necessities.
However, Shen was even more surprised when he saw the vegetables grown in the space.
“I planted these vegetables these days.”
"In my space, ordinary vegetables only need about ten days to mature."
"Things like eggplant and peppers that need to bloom and bear fruit can be eaten in about 20 days."
After seeing the watermelons in the field grow bigger, Meng Ci quickly ran away from Shen Que.
Then, squatting in front of the watermelon closest to him, Meng Ci reached out and patted it.
"Shen Que, the watermelon is ripe!"
Looking at Meng Ci's sparkling eyes, Shen Que felt that he looked quite like Eggplant when he saw food.
Then Meng Ci continued to explain that although vegetables can be grown in this space, one needs to get the soil down from the pile of earth, and the snow over there can also be used unlimitedly.
Since Shen Que has come in, Meng Ci naturally can't let him come in for nothing.
So Meng Ci commanded Shen Que to dig the soil and plant the crops, under the pretext of training him.
Shen Que had no objection and began to farm under Meng Ci's command.
Meng Ci scattered two bags of watermelon seeds on the land he developed this time, and saved them for eating when they were ripe and extremely hot.
While Chen Que was digging the ground, Meng Ci ran to find a fruit knife, sat on the ground and split the watermelon into two halves.
Originally Meng Ci wanted to just throw it on the ground and then break it apart to eat, but he thought it would be bad if it got covered in dirt.
In the last days, fruits are still very precious.
Called Shen Que to come and eat together.
He finished a piece of watermelon in two bites.
Meng Ci looked at the watermelon rind in his hand and thought, well, I'll take it out and give it to Eggplant later.
Meng Ci looked at the time and realized that he had been here for nearly two hours, so he decisively took Shen Que and left the space.
Chen Que came out with a hoe in his hand and a confused look on his face.
“Come back to your senses!” Seeing Chen Que standing there in a daze, Meng Ci stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him.
Shen Que looked at the hoe in his hand, then at Meng Ci.
"What should I do with this thing?"
Meng Ci didn’t think too much about it at the time and just took the person out of the space.
At this moment, when he saw the hoe in Shen Que's hand, he realized something was wrong and quickly stuffed the thing into the space.
“Ouch, ouch!”
When Eggplant saw its two disappeared masters suddenly appear, and saw that Meng Ci was holding some delicious food in his hand, it hurried over and cried.
Forget it, since the owner has brought it food, I will forgive him for abandoning me this time.
Meng Ci poured the watermelon rinds in the bag into Eggplant's food bowl.
Of course, he didn't let it eat just the skin. Meng Ci also cut the remaining half of the watermelon into pieces and fed it to Eggplant.
It was already past eight o'clock, and thinking that he had to go to the stock exchange tomorrow morning, Chen Que went to heat the kang, wiped his body casually, and the two of them lay on the bed and fell asleep.
When he woke up the next day, Meng Ci openly took out two servings of tofu pudding, two servings of multi-grain pancakes, a plate of hand-shredded lemon chicken, and a plate of tofu skin enoki mushrooms from the space.
On the stove, there was a pot of porridge simmering.
In the end times, although they only had two meals a day, they both ate a lot each time.
After dinner, seeing that it was almost twelve o'clock, the two of them put hot packs on their bodies, dressed warmly, and then went out.
Zhang Mingtian and the other two were already waiting outside. After saying hello, they carried the tiger downstairs.
The road to the exchange was originally smooth.
As a result, the snow cleared by the exchange piled up around it, causing the exchange to be located in a low-lying area.
So when the five men pulled the tiger away, it was like pulling it up a mountain, and they were all exhausted and out of breath.
Fortunately, once we reached the top, we started to slide down. We just had to fix the raft and the tiger together and have a few people hold them to prevent them from slipping.
After reaching the bottom of the slope, it still takes another half an hour to walk to the exchange.
Along the way, the residents were extremely surprised to see the tiger that Meng Ci and his team were pulling.
Those who were free followed them quietly, wanting to see how much food they could get from this tiger.
When they arrived at the official trading point, a soldier saw the tiger they were pulling and hurried over to help.
After hearing that someone had killed a tiger, Lu Chen also came out.
These days, some people have killed wild animals, but they were all relatively small wild boars.
And the tiger is the first one.
When Lu Chen saw that the leaders were Meng Ci and Shen Que, he had the thought that they were indeed the ones who could catch the tiger.
"Lieutenant Lu." Seeing Lu Chen, Meng Ci spoke first to greet him.
Lu Chen nodded and stood aside watching the soldiers bring in a scale and an iron plate.
"Are you two interested in joining the security team?" Lu Chen suddenly said to Meng Ci and Shen Que beside him.
Meng Ci refused without a second thought, "Not interested."
"Don't you want to think about it?"
"And with your skills and my recommendation, you will definitely be treated the same as our soldiers after you come in." Lu Chen continued to persuade.
The security team not only has people like Zhang Mingtian and his team who patrol outside, but also a group of people who have excellent skills, so Lu Chen will give them special training.
If you perform well in the later period, you can become a soldier as an exception.
Shen Que had said before that he became a soldier because of his outstanding performance in his previous life.
The mission of soldiers is to protect the people.
So Shen Que tried his best to protect ordinary people who had not awakened their superpowers, but he didn't expect that in the end he would be pushed into the zombies by the humans he protected.
Therefore, after his rebirth, Shen Que only planned to stock up on some supplies and protect himself.
If he hadn't met Meng Ci, he would probably still be fighting alone.
Meng Ci knew that Shen Que was unwilling to join the security team, and he himself did not like being controlled by others, so he refused again.
"Thank you for your kindness, Lieutenant Lu, but neither of us likes to be constrained."
"If there's nothing to eat, go out and look for it. If there's something to eat, stay home."
"So, Lieutenant Lu, please stop trying to persuade us."
Since the other party has said this, Lu Chen did not force it, but still left a message that if she wanted to join the security team in the future, she could find him.
