A large fishing boat slowly sailed in from the horizon.
"Woof, woof!" the snow leopard barked excitedly at them.
At the same time, several handsome men and beautiful women dressed in white walked closer.
Bai Shuang and the others only glanced at it briefly before turning back to continue watching the large fishing boats approaching from afar.
If I'm not mistaken, they should be the young masters and ladies of that reclusive family, the Yuwen family.
When you get back, have Mr. Wu keep an eye on them. These people are wicked. Bai Shuang hasn't forgotten how they colluded with the Kang family at the wedding and tried to kill her.
As the fishing boat slowly approached, Bai Shuang took out her instruments.
The soldiers on the ship, looking like they were returning in triumph, stood on the deck waving to them.
The soldiers who went out to sea today are all Lu Yu's subordinates.
"General, Madam, here is a giant turtle for you."
The ship quickly docked, and off it came youthful, vibrant faces and a boat full of seafood.
"Goddess, will you pick us up?"
Bai Shuang greeted them with a smile, "I've come to see if these things are edible?"
The moment the question of whether it was edible was raised, everyone's faces fell. They had caught a lot of seafood today and were hoping to have a good seafood feast.
"Don't worry, the results will be out soon."
In the distance, several of the younger members of the Yuwen family who had already left stopped and looked in this direction.
A woman said to the man beside her, "Is Bai Shuang that close to those soldiers?"
“She’s her husband’s subordinate, so of course they’re close.”
"Really? That officer's wife is so familiar with her husband's subordinates? There's admiration and respect between them, and they're even on good terms with each other."
Bai Shuang and the others had no idea what they were up to; she was currently looking excitedly at the boatload of seafood.
Bighead carp, smallmouth carp, turbot, snakehead, male carp, female carp, moray eel, sea catfish, etc.
Large lobsters, crayfish, mantis shrimp, freshwater shrimp, large prawns, tiger prawns, and so on.
Blue crab, red crab, swimming crab, etc.
Seaweed, sea fungus, asparagus, wakame, etc.
He then saw the large turtle, two meters in diameter, that the soldiers had given him.
I never imagined that these marine animals could grow so big after just over two months of rest and recuperation.
Perhaps they didn't die during the extreme cold, but instead multiplied and thrived under the ice and snow, like carp in the Yellow River.
These seafood items were noticeably larger than usual, and their shapes were slightly different.
Is this a mutation that occurred under extreme conditions?
However, judging from their appearance, there are no particular lesions present, so they should be non-toxic.
However, we still need to conduct tests to know the specifics.
The temperature was still rising, so Bai Shuang asked them for help to quickly collect the specimens and put them into containers.
Then we picked out some of the seafood we wanted and quickly packed it up to go back to the base.
Bai Shuang instructed them not to eat the seafood until the results came out, and to process today's catch and dry it into dried goods.
After returning home, Bai Shuang first went to the hospital laboratory to check with everyone whether these things were poisonous.
The result was good; it's edible, except for a few special varieties.
She suggested to the base that they should not eat anything with an irregular shape, and that they should not eat any head, tail, or internal organs.
In addition, she suggested that the Ministry of Health re-test the food and then find volunteers to try it, as she did not want to take any risks.
After the pandemic, Bai Shuang was seen as a god-like figure by the survivors, and her popularity in the base was unmatched.
Wherever there are people, there is a world of intrigue and rivalry. It's inevitable that some people will feel envy, jealousy, and hatred. Who knows how many people are watching her from behind the scenes?
Fortunately, with Grandpa Lu and Lu Yu's 60,000 troops as their backing, they dared not act rashly.
Bai Shuang and the others returned home, and soon after, Mr. Wu brought A Qiao over to play.
Bai Shuang showed them the seafood the officers and soldiers had caught that day.
A-Qiao: "Wow! It's so big, it looks so fun!"
"I tested it and it's not poisonous. If you dare to eat it, take some."
Mr. Wu: "I believe you, and I only believe you."
When Bai Shuang told them to keep an eye on the Kang family and the Yuwen family, Mr. Wu also told Bai Shuang some news.
That is, Miss Yuwen has recently become very close to Wang Ming, the son of Commander Wang.
This news is indeed noteworthy.
Bai Shuang didn't care who was close to whom; she was only concerned that people like the Yuwen family, with their ulterior motives and special abilities, could influence the judgment of high-ranking military officials once they got close to them.
This would affect the situation, impacting Grandpa's management and the survivors of the entire base.
Currently, there are three armies at the Kyoto base: Lu Yu's First Army and two others.
However, the two armies together only numbered 60,000, which, when combined, was equivalent to the number of Lu Yu's army.
He has made countless contributions to reach the high ranks of the military, and hopefully Commander Wang will not be affected by them.
That night, Bai Shuang and Lu Yu entered the space and looked at the large turtle that the soldiers had given them during the day. Bai Shuang then conducted another experiment.
"Lu Yu, no problem. We can just disinfect it again before eating."
But let's not eat it for now. Let's dig a small pond and keep it there separately.
After further testing and recruiting volunteers to taste the food, the base confirmed that there were no problems.
These aquatic products are simply mutated; they haven't been contaminated by any viruses or nuclear contamination.
Since the seafood was edible, Grandpa Lu ordered all available resources in the base, including soldiers and able-bodied survivors, to do their utmost to salvage it.
Private individuals can rent boats from the base, and the seafood they catch can be exchanged for points at the base. They can also take some back to eat or dry as desired.
A seafood processing plant was built inside the base to handle and dry seafood.
Taking advantage of the extreme heat and the bright red sun, drying is easy and of high quality. Hopefully, this wave will enhance the survivors' physical condition and allow them to stockpile enough food reserves.
The entire base was bustling with activity. Everyone could earn points and have a full stomach, at least with enough protein.
Once, Bai Shuang took Bai Jiu and the snow leopard to the base's canteen to check on things, thinking that the food should be ready by now.
Before I even went inside, I could smell a fishy odor; it was hard to describe.
Bai Jiu asked curiously, "Miss, why does it smell so fishy? Is it because the ingredients are different? Why does our seafood smell so good?"
Bai Shuang shook her head. "It must be because they're lacking seasonings here."
The base's planting platform doesn't even have enough grain to grow, so who can afford to grow things like scallions, ginger, garlic, and peppercorns? And there's an even greater shortage of alcohol.
Occasionally, I'll plant some green vegetables.
The two went inside just as it was time for dinner. The chef saw Bai Shuang and busied himself greeting her.
"Miss Bai, are you coming for dinner? We happen to have some good food here."
Bai Shuang saw that the stewed fish in the pot was quite thick and of good quality, but it was too fishy for her to eat.
"No, we've already eaten. We just came to take a look."
The chef smiled and said, "The food has been good lately, with seafood at every meal."
As he spoke, he took a fish from the side and put it in the water, intending to give it to the snow leopard, but the creature darted away and hid behind the white frost.
This guy! Bai Shuang just wants to ask, are you a dog or a fox?
Bai Shuang turned to the chef and said, "Thank you, but it just finished eating too."
