Chapter 16
Hey! This guy, instead of learning something good, he learns all sorts of nonsense.
Three more minutes is the standard for men!
If you have the guts, come on for a minute and see if he, as a man, can kill it.
"Okay, wait until midnight and participate in the three-minute flash sale."
Mingzhu returned to the house, intending to rest.
It’s a pity that there is a fat calico cat next to him. The cat is doing some sneaky tricks, which makes Mingzhu particularly alert.
"What time is it now?" Mingzhu asked.
184: "About 5pm?"
"Time flies." Mingzhu stretched and left his residence. Jin Dashao had already started to get busy.
He washed and cut the pig heart, which was so large that it took a large basin to cook, into pieces and put them in the pot to cook. He also added impatiens and white wine to remove the fishy smell.
Prepare half for cold salad, and stir-fry the other half with chili segments and shredded ginger.
The chili peppers were from stock, dried chilies, and there wasn't much of them. As for the ginger, it was wild ginger that Jin Dashao had dug up during his free afternoons.
Not only wild ginger, but also wild garlic and wild onions were dug up in large quantities.
If the main seasoning is not enough, find a way to make it yourself.
Compared to Mingzhu, the 'unreliable' boss, Jin Dashao is unbelievably reliable. Even Jin Suanpan is...
As soon as Mingzhu came out, Jin Suanpan took the abacus and calculated something for Mingzhu.
Mingzhu was dazed by what he heard, but in the end he only understood one thing, which was told to him by Jin Suanpan: If this continued, Taoyuan Inn would still not make any money.
Mingzhu: "...This is only for a short time. Don't worry, once the Taoyuan Inn is nearly completed and its reputation spreads among the survivors, it will surely be flooded with guests."
Jin Suanpan put down the abacus, and her iconic Chinese phoenix eyes looked particularly charming and affectionate when she looked at people seriously and attentively.
"Boss, don't be lazy. Work hard and happily on infrastructure construction."
Mingzhu: "...trying hard."
Really, don’t rush me!
If you push him too hard, he will think of himself as just a beast of burden, not a boss.
"Then according to Miss Jin's wishes, what should I do?" Mingzhu changed the subject a little roughly.
"Keep it up. Just follow the boss's own pace." Jin Suanpan said earnestly.
Mingzhu: “…”
That makes so much sense, I can't refute it.
Mingzhu looked up at the sky, and what a coincidence, at this moment, above the sky, within the reach of the naked eye, a large patch of fiery clouds appeared, as red as fire and extremely gorgeous.
"Wow!" Mingzhu exclaimed, "It's really beautiful."
"It's really beautiful." Jin Suanpan also looked up at the sky. "Life is about to end, but in the end, it will shine brightly and brilliantly."
"Do you mean that the world is about to change again?" Mingzhu asked thoughtfully.
"Isn't this what should be done?" Jin Suanpan was very confused, as if he didn't understand why Mingzhu asked this.
It's obvious why the end of the world is called the end of the world. In addition to zombies and mutations of plants and animals, there are also fatal natural disasters.
What about devastating tsunamis, devastating floods and sandstorms, volcanic eruptions and earth rifts, and the distorted four seasons? Extremely cold weather with temperatures below 100 degrees Celsius, and extremely hot weather with temperatures reaching 60 degrees Celsius...
And this is also the end of the world.
Mingzhu felt that this was what Jin Suanpan wanted to say. He didn't know when the extreme weather would occur, but since Jin Suanpan said it so implicitly, extreme weather would definitely occur.
I just don't know which extreme weather will appear first.
Mingzhu became curious for a moment, but Jin Suanpan didn't continue. He only said that after the four cultivated farmlands were harvested, Mingzhu could try to collect or buy cotton seeds for planting.
In fact, there is no need to say it explicitly. Since it has been stated that cotton can be planted, the weather in the future will probably be extremely cold.
I just don't know when it will start.
Mingzhu frowned and thought for a moment, then looked at Jinsuanpan. Jinsuanpan rolled his eyes, obviously not wanting to pay attention to Mingzhu.
Mingzhu was silent for a moment, then decided to build a few more plots of farmland. He decided to build a primary fish pond there, which would make management and irrigation easier.
But it’s quite late now, so let’s have dinner and continue tomorrow.
Mingzhu yawned as he was thinking about this. Coincidentally, Jin Dashao called for dinner. Mingzhu put aside his thoughts and started to concentrate on eating.
Even if it’s not homemade, it tastes delicious. Of course, it’s also true that Jin Dashao is a good cook.
Not only Mingzhu enjoyed the meal very much, but even Qin Mingyue, Xiaowan, Sanshui and Liu Yong who were staying at the Taoyuan Inn also enjoyed the meal very much.
The mutated wild boar king's meat was fresh and tender, without a trace of mutton smell. Even the heart tasted like smooth jelly.
The taste was no different from the insect meat hidden by Mingzhu. The only difference was that the energy content of insect meat was slightly higher than that of mutated wild boar meat.
But it's not much higher, almost the same.
"There is still a lot of pork liver. I will pickle it with salt and cook pork liver porridge tomorrow." Jin Dashao was cheerful, as if cooking was the only thing in his mind.
The fact is, even though supplies are currently scarce, Jin Dashao goes out to collect seasonings and edible plants himself, and does not give up cooking because of the lack of supplies.
Even when talking about cooking, he enjoyed it very much.
Mingzhu agreed intermittently and briefly talked about his future plans. When Mingzhu mentioned that they could reclaim a few more plots of farmland tomorrow and transplant the farmland in the backyard, Jin Dashao slapped his thigh excitedly and rejected Mingzhu's proposal to move the four plots of farmland out of the backyard.
“Just put it in the backyard and grow seasonings on weekdays.”
"Okay." Mingzhu agreed immediately. "Onion, ginger, garlic, and any other seasonings?"
"Are pepper, chili pepper, Sichuan pepper, and so on considered seasonings?" Qin Mingyue listened attentively and couldn't help but interject. "There's also fennel, chili pepper, and so on..."
"Are those four plots not enough?" Mingzhu pondered, then shook his head: "That's enough, that's enough. If there are more, we won't be able to eat them all."
The farmland in the Taoyuan Base itself is different from ordinary farmland. You have to plant a specific number of seeds. Plant 50 units of seeds and you'll harvest 300 crops. This could be 300 kilograms of grain, or 300 heads of vegetables (like cabbage).
The time it takes to mature is 5 to 7 days. Ordinary crops mature in 5 days, while higher quality crops mature in 7 days.
The rice, wheat, cabbage, lettuce and other crops that Mingzhu planted at the beginning will be mature in about two days.
By then, we will have harvested 300 kilograms of wheat, 300 kilograms of rice, 300 heads of cabbage, and 300 heads of lettuce. Not to mention anything else, if there are no guests for the time being, the food will be enough for the few people we have now to eat for several months.
Even if more guests come, as long as the farmland has a high yield for a short period of time, there will no longer be a shortage of staple food and other foods.
that is......
Well, it seems the stone mill for husking rice and wheat hasn't been built yet. It seems that tomorrow, in addition to building a few more farmlands, we'll also have to build a stone mill for husking grains.
