Chapter 874 Slap Fried Rice, If It Doesn’t Taste Good, Hit Me
This journey lasted for over a month. As factories opened in each new location, the number of people following them dwindled, but… the supplies they carried grew.
Ahem, didn’t I accidentally sweep away almost all the inexpensive supplies and local specialties along this route?
It must be said that Jingshu's horizons were truly broadened and she gained a lot of knowledge. She ate a lot of delicious food that she had never eaten before the apocalypse. By the way, she also took a look at the dark scenery unique to the apocalypse, which broadened her horizons a lot.
Food is the most important thing for people, and in Shunde, the food capital, the only regret is that I didn’t get to visit Shunde.
"Hey, it's only about two or three hundred kilometers away. If I wasn't pressed for time, I would definitely go!"
Jingshu thought unwillingly, and at the same time, she felt sorry for the precious and rare seafood broth instant noodles. She squeezed the seasoning packet clean and rinsed it three times with water for fear of wasting even a little bit.
Then I randomly added some common seafood ingredients such as lobster, abalone, sea urchin, and sea cucumber. I didn’t dare to add anything else because I was afraid of destroying the original flavor of the instant noodles.
You have to know that this is a brand of instant noodles that has been discontinued. Every time you eat a pack, one pack is gone, and Jingshu has very little left.
I regretted it so much. Why didn't I stock up on some supermarket snacks back then? Why was I so stingy as to buy several boxes of each?
Nowadays, it has become a luxury to have the taste of instant noodle soup. I have even forgotten what Kangshoufu braised beef noodles taste like. I just remember that the soup is delicious. I vomited it after eating it for a while, but later I missed it again when it was gone.
Fortunately, I did manage to collect some snacks along the way from businesses that hadn't gone bankrupt before the end of the world, so that was some consolation.
While she was alone, Jingshu took out some KFC top-shelf chips, French fries, popcorn chicken, chicken nuggets, shrimp cakes, and a bucket of taro balls and red bean milk tea from her space...
After the meal, have a cheese and durian mille-feuille cake. Burp~ Jingshu is already full. The side effect of this space spiritual spring that increases appetite is getting worse and worse. If it weren't for the amazing output of the space, it really couldn't support her. The people in the old Jing family have increased their appetite two or three times, and have become real gluttons.
Traveling across Guangdong and western China, the food I bought the most on this trip was the Liuzhou snail noodles. I felt a little uncomfortable slurping them the first time, but after that I couldn't stop. The sour and smelly bamboo shoots were really addictive!
After eating snail noodles, she slurped Laoyou noodles. After eating Laoyou noodles, she slurped Guilin rice noodles. Jingshu slurped so much that blisters appeared on the corners of her mouth.
The second most purchased item is sea duck eggs and salted duck eggs. As a landmark food, they are cheap, affordable and delicious. The egg yolk is oily and the taste is salty and fragrant. Jingshu can drink three large bowls of them with rice porridge without taking a breath!
It also unlocked a new way to eat it: slap fried rice.
Hey, slap fried rice means that this fried rice is so delicious, so delicious, so delicious that I won’t put down the bowl even if you slap me.
Plain egg fried rice is delicious enough, but then we add the shrimp heads to create a super fragrant oil, stir-fry it with the mashed salted egg yolk, then add the shrimp, carrots, egg mixture, and egg whites, stir-frying continuously. Finally, add the soulful leftover rice… and sprinkle with chopped green onions for the finishing touch. Wow, doesn't that make it so fragrant? The magical fusion of shrimp oil and salted egg yolk is absolutely amazing!
Just the fact that Jingshu and her uncle and third aunt ate slap fried rice for three consecutive days tells you how delicious it is!
After a full meal, Jingshu lay on the sofa like Ge You, spinning a Rubik's Cube rapidly. Since her last level-up, Jingshu had entered a period of continuous experience accumulation, waiting for a bottleneck and a breakthrough to level up. But it didn't seem possible in the short term, so she had to go out and see if there were any bosses or elite monsters to kill.
Just as he was thinking about it, someone knocked on the door outside the Hulk.
He is the coordination minister, Zhao Yu, who is responsible for coordinating all matters big and small during this trip. Generally speaking, if you have any problems, you can just find Xiao Zhao.
The young man, who is in his twenties, has entered the elite group at a young age. He has a body full of muscles, but looks gentle and refined when he puts on clothes. He is also friendly and popular, making him suitable for solving all kinds of unreasonable chores.
Of course, the Coordination Department also has a nickname called the Scapegoat, and other departments can blame the Coordination Department for any problems.
"Sister Jing, the ferry operators in Xuwen, Zhanjiang, still refuse to agree to our
The price they offered was too low, and they had to sign a long-term contract with our cigarette factory. Otherwise, not only would they refuse to pull our ferry, but they would also not care about the transportation of our shipments in the future.
They figured we'd be stranded on an island and would need a ferry to get our goods out."
Yes, after more than a month of travel, Jingshu finally arrived in Zhanjiang, only about 100 kilometers away from her destination, Nanhai. It can be said that victory is at hand!
But we also encountered big problems.
As we all know, the South China Sea is an island. The only ways to get there are by ferry or plane. Even before the end of the world, taking a train or driving to the South China Sea meant driving the train or car onto the ferry, which would then carry these vehicles to the South China Sea.
It only takes an hour's ferry ride for Jiang Jiang to reach the South China Sea from Xuwen.
Large ferries can carry thousands of people and hundreds of cars, and are as big as a football field.
Before the apocalypse, Xuwen was the largest port in the world. Even after the apocalypse, the port has not withered away, and freight transportation still relies on ferries.
Jingshu frowned, thinking about her previous life, when they migrated here, exhausted and pitiful. Moreover, with government subsidies and assistance from the local town government, the ferrymen were enthusiastic and generous and ferried all the people of Wucheng to the South China Sea on their boats. Not only did they not ask for money, they also provided them with a meal.
In this life, they came with bags of supplies, high spirits and offered generous treatment, but were trapped at the dock.
Their trip was for commercial cargo transport, not for civilian use, so they paid a high price, but the other party was not satisfied.
The ferry chamber of commerce joined forces and wanted to get a big piece of the big cake of the cigarette factory.
"Hey, if you don't agree to give us the goods at the lowest price, our ferry won't take you. You'll just have to sit there and starve. Or if you have the guts, just fly over there."
Jingshu has dozens of marching vehicles and freight trucks carrying various supplies on this trip, so she really needs a ferry to come, but the fundamental problem is that the transportation of goods and supplies in the South China Sea will be blocked in the future.
It is not easy to feed people and find jobs in this doomsday, but the Ferry Chamber of Commerce at this dock really has the capital, and the local town government has to give them some leeway. Half of the people in Zhanjiang now rely on the Ferry Chamber of Commerce for their livelihood.
Fuel is expensive in this apocalyptic world, so the ferry shouldn't be able to afford it. And hey, they really can't afford it.
In the two years before the end of the world, I did keep a low profile for a while.
The turning point has to start with the carrion beetles. The carrion beetles in the ocean have no natural enemies and are simply invincible. They completely let themselves reproduce and have made a comeback in the port. Isn't this a disaster?
These carrion worms were inedible and had absolutely no value in recycling. That year, they completely submerged Xuwen. A swarm of worms, covering the sky and the sun, crawled out of the sea and submerged Xuwen again...
