Chapter 548 This this this chicken, chicken...it, it...
Jingshu picked up a few pieces of meat and handed them to Aunt Wang: "Sorry, I don't have a bowl. Just eat whatever you want. I'm sorry for the hard work you've done these days."
Aunt Wang took the meat without any hesitation and thanked her without paying. She carefully put it into her pocket and covered her pocket vigilantly, not wanting anyone outside to see it. She wanted to take it back for her daughter to eat.
After looking at the earth cakes, Jingshu shook her head. "If they're too big and thick, it'll feel like eating dirt. They should be the size of a palm. A little thinner, and they'll be crispier and easier to chew, just like rice crust. Remember, pinch the edges downwards so you can stack them and carry them easily."
"Oh." Aunt Wang admired Jingshu very much. She didn't expect that people who lived a good life in the apocalypse could know so many ways to survive. Moreover, they had established prestige in just a few hours of arriving in this desperate place. She felt that following Jingshu was the right person and she would be able to survive. Before leaving, she also promised to complete the mission well.
*** gave Jingshu a thumbs up and said, "How do you know so much?"
Jingshu gave an inexplicable smile: "It's just that I lived longer."
"You're so young and you know how to joke, hahaha..."
Jingshu smiled and said nothing more. The meal wasn't very large. Normally, how could such a large pot be enough for a dozen adults? But after two bowls of milk tea and a pancake, they were almost there. Everyone shared their share of the meat and vegetables in the pot, and in the end, after much deliberation, there was just one portion of each left. Everyone ate modestly, satisfied, and finished all the soup.
Jing Shu smiled helplessly and gave the last bit of food in the pot to Li Dayou: "They still have some dirt in their stomachs. Eat more. There is still a lot of work waiting for you to do."
Li Dayou originally said that he would not eat anymore, but then he hesitated because there was still a lot of work to do, and finished the remaining food. Finally, he burped in satisfaction, and then he felt how good it was to be alive.
After the meal, everyone's strength was restored a lot, and no one looked so hungry that their skin was pale and their faces were not so thin. They began to count the resources and pack up their things, waiting for rescue to arrive so that they could start moving things.
In short, everyone started to get busy again. Now is not like before, when everyone was waiting to die on the ship.
Jingshu gave Li Da an important task, which was to take good care of Feiji and keep an eye on Feiji and Jingshu's suitcase.
"What kind of important work is this? There's so much more?" Li Dayou felt that Jingshu was taking care of him in a different way, even though he was still very weak.
Jingshu said seriously: "This luggage is my family's capital. We depend on it for food these days. What if someone wants to steal it? Don't you know how many people outside are jealous of this chicken? What if someone has ideas about it? It's not easy to take good care of a chicken." She gave me the feeling that I trust you the most now.
"Okay." Li Dayou accepted this important task, and turned his head to look at the fat chicken laying eggs in the nest. It dozed off comfortably with its eyes closed, looking very comfortable. Well, it really needs to be taken care of. If someone sets their sights on the chicken, he will have to keep a close eye on it.
After Jingshu confirmed that everything was correct, she followed *** to check on the seeds.
In the cargo hold of the big ship, a cold wind blew across the table. Large boxes similar to those in the United States were neatly placed inside. In order to maintain the temperature and humidity and reduce the mildew and germination rate of the seeds, *** and his team took good care of the seeds every day.
But no matter how serious it is, there have been losses due to various reasons over such a long period of time. *** is talking about the current loss situation of seeds. Some are still okay, but some are very scarce.
Jingshu was worried about the seeds, as they were becoming less and less, and her heart ached. Fortunately, no matter how few seeds there were, there were still a few left. As long as there were some, she could take them to the Rubik's Cube space to plant and reproduce them, and then save the seeds again. These were the seeds from the US seed bank, and they were all the best seeds.
"There's no seed category that will result in total annihilation, right?" Jingshu asked cautiously.
*** scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "There are three more kinds, one is wheat and the other is corn."
Jingshu breathed a sigh of relief after reading the English translation. She had both kinds of seeds. She had collected more than a hundred kinds of corn seeds at that time. As for corn, she liked to eat fruit corn and glutinous corn from China, as well as the corn from Northeast China.
There is milk corn on the side, so it doesn’t matter if there is less of it.
*** also let out a breath and said, "There's also something that looks like rice. We hit a rock in the canal, and a whole box of it got soaked and swelled. Even after we dried it, it still got moldy... so we ate it. Hmm... it wasn't tasty at all. I guess it's not a good seed? It's black, like black rice."
***feeling guilty.
Jingshu looked up the information in English on the box and her head buzzed. It turned out to be American wild rice! It's a famous type of rice in the world. It's light black, pointed at both ends and round in the middle. It's very long and thin, and it's Jingshu's favorite type.
Jingshu has always wanted to try what the long-famous rice tastes like and how delicious it is.
I didn't expect flag to be so accurate! She might never taste it again in her life.
There are hundreds of thousands of seeds, how come she got exactly the ones she wanted? Is this like buying a lottery ticket and you will win?
Jing Shu said with an unpleasant expression, "Not even one left?"
*** whispered, "It's gone, it's all moldy."
"Okay." Jingshu took a deep breath. In life, there will always be some regrets. She should feel lucky. At least she still has many other kinds of rice seeds.
Just as Jingshu was drowning in regret, a scream suddenly came from outside.
"What's going on? Let's go! Let's go and take a look." *** turned around immediately and Jingshu followed. She was in a very upset mood.
The screams became louder and louder, rising from one person to the wailing and shouting for help of several people. The few people who went out to supervise the work and the crew members who were packing up rushed over quickly. The villagers who heard the sound also rushed over, some of them to watch the fun and some to watch the onlookers.
When Jingshu and *** arrived, the place was already full of people. Jingshu gently pushed them away. She frowned and had foreseen something.
"It's the village chief and Ergazi and the others!"
"They haven't worked, so they haven't eaten. They must be here to steal something. Have they been discovered?"
"Hurry up and see what's happening in there. Why are they screaming so miserably?"
"Don't squeeze me, I can't see anything."
But when the crew rushed over with torches and finally illuminated the situation, everyone gasped, the lively atmosphere instantly turned cold, and the villagers began to step back, looking at all this in horror.
Li Dayou saw Jingshu finally came, and he stammered: "You, you, you are here, this, this, this chicken...it, it..."
