Chapter 59 Cabbage Stewed with Pork Belly
The Gao family cried all night long, but amidst the crying, Mu Jiu and others slept unusually soundly.
Perhaps the sound of human voices is reassuring in this terrifying apocalypse.
The next day, when Mu Jiu and his group were having breakfast together, the Gao family was arguing.
Mr. Gao believes that the dead cannot be resurrected, so the living should live well.
He planned to burn his son's body and take the ashes with him, and then go to the nearest temple as planned at daybreak.
Naturally, Mother Gao refused. She felt that Father Gao was heartless. His son had just died, and he was going to abandon him and leave. She refused to leave.
Endless quarrels.
Mu Jiu and his companions calmly finished their breakfast and said goodbye to the family. After all, they were not of the same kind, so they had done their best for them.
Last night, while having nothing to do while on night watch, Mu Jiu had already figured out the next route.
The next target location is the largest vegetable planting base in the southeastern suburbs of Hui City.
I learned from the Internet that there are thousands of acres of greenhouses there, which is one of the main channels for vegetable supply in Hui City.
There is a large orchard behind it. Judging from the map, it is probably larger than the area of the greenhouse!
Mu Jiu and his friends rode bicycles and skateboards for a whole morning before they finally found the planting base along the outer ring road.
Standing on the cement road that extends to the base and looking into the distance from a high place, it is indeed a super greenhouse that stretches as far as the eye can see.
On both sides of the entrance to the greenhouse area, there is a large warehouse.
Xiao Huang used his gold-type ability to open the doors of both warehouses, and a stream of strange...
However, in broad daylight, the little ghost had just stretched out a hand, or half of his head, when he was instantly burned into a wisp of black smoke by the scorching sun.
Several strange beads were delivered to my door for no reason!
Mu Jiu held the peach wood sword and led the way inside while killing the monsters.
The large warehouse on the left is filled with various agricultural machinery.
For example, automatic seeders, pesticide sprayers, vegetable harvesters, automatic tillage machines, automatic trenchers, etc.
There are dozens of each type of equipment, occupying hundreds of square meters, for large-scale farming.
There are also the most primitive iron tools such as shovels, sickles, long and short shears, etc.
All of them were collected by Mu Jiu into the space.
In the large warehouse on the right, there are seeds of various vegetables and fruits, all packed in large wooden boxes and stacked together.
For example, radishes, eggplants, peppers, tomatoes, beans, onions, etc.
The seeds are very small, and just one box like this can sow dozens or hundreds of acres of land, and there are probably tens of thousands of boxes of seeds in this warehouse.
Mu Jiu will never be short of seeds in his space, let alone vegetables to eat!
What's more, when the space was expanded before, there was a reminder that the space could be planted automatically, so Mu Jiu didn't have to worry about it at all!
After cleaning up the two large warehouses in front, Mu Jiu led everyone into the vegetable greenhouse area at the back.
Perhaps because the area is vast and sparsely populated, and the sowing and harvesting have basically been modernized, there are not many corpses at the vegetable base.
At a glance, there were only a few vegetable base managers in white uniforms lying on the mud between the greenhouses.
Mu Jiu opened the door of the first greenhouse and saw a large field of cabbages planted on the ground inside!
The green flowers bloom into the shape of a big flower.
The light transmittance of the greenhouse is not bad, but it is not completely transparent after all, so you can vaguely see a lot of translucent weird things floating in the greenhouse.
Some of them have no arms, some have no legs, and some have no jaws, wandering around with long tongues hanging...
Mu Jiu didn't bother to care. Everyone was protected by a barrier talisman, and the first-level weirdness couldn't see them at all.
Mu Jiu took out the cabbage harvester that he had collected from the warehouse from the space and gave one to each of the other four people.
All everyone has to do is harvest the vegetables and place them where they are, waiting for Mu Jiu to come and put them into the space. There is no need to bother transporting them.
Almost all of us were city kids and didn't know how to use these farm tools, but as we learned more, we gradually became more adept at it.
The harvester just goes around the vegetable field and all the cabbages are harvested and laid down. It is very convenient.
On average, one acre of land produces 4,000 cabbages.
Mu Jiu and the other three used harvesting machines to harvest the entire cabbage greenhouse of about 100 acres in just one morning.
About 400,000 cabbages were obtained, and all were stored by Mu Jiu in the space warehouse.
To eat this amount, this group of people would have to eat 10 cabbages every day, and it would take them 100 years to finish it!
Mu Jiu and her friends always prepare meals to suit the occasion. Since they have so much cabbage, Xiao Huang suggests making cabbage for lunch.
No one objected. After all, it was made by Chef Huang, and everything he made was delicious!
So Xiao Huang asked Mu Jiu for a large piece of pork belly.
A stove was set up on the muddy ground between the greenhouses, and the boss made a pot of pork belly and cabbage.
You can smell the aroma from miles away! Paired with white rice, it's absolutely amazing!
In the terrifying apocalypse, everyone is doing physical work, so Mu Jiu will definitely try his best to satisfy his own and everyone's stomachs when it comes to eating.
As of now, there is already a lot of food in the space, and there will definitely be no problem with having meat, eggs and rice for every meal.
Now with the addition of vegetables, the nutrition is basically balanced!
But the only thing that troubled Mu Jiu was that this vegetable base was too big, and there was a mountain of fruit forests behind it.
At their current speed, even with the help of mechanization, it is not fast enough.
Of course, the main reason is that the team is too small.
In this case, it will probably take several days to completely harvest the vegetables at this vegetable base.
But there is no way around it. After all, solving the problem of food is the most important thing so far.
As Mu Jiu was thinking this, some subtle sounds suddenly rang out around him.
A moment later, Mu Jiu and his companions were surrounded by the boss and a group of fruit farmers in white uniforms.
Perhaps he was attracted by the smoke from Xiao Huang's cooking and the aroma of cabbage and pork belly.
I saw that each of them was holding a shovel, sickle, axe or other tools in their hands, about 50 people.
A small dirt road was completely blocked.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the vegetable farm and cook vegetables over an open fire next to the vegetable greenhouse...
Get out of here quickly, or we'll call the police!" the leading uncle shouted.
Mu Jiu glanced at those people, without moving, and continued to shovel rice into his mouth.
It was Comrade Xiao Huang, the oldest member of the team, who stood up first and said in a gentle voice:
"Are you the owners of this vegetable base? Well, we are the survivors in the city.
I happened to walk here and saw some vegetables. I was so hungry that I pulled out two and stewed them. I felt really bad about it.
Mu Jiu silently looked up at Xiao Huang. This guy has become a bad guy now. He lies without blinking.
It’s okay to eat vegetables when you’re hungry, but the decision wasn’t to pull out two vegetables; it was to pull out more than 400,000 vegetables.
These people were obviously a little surprised. After looking at each other, someone asked, "Did you really pull this out of the greenhouse?"
