Chapter 73: Making the Plate Bigger
Li Zang returned home and found Momo wearing a straw hat, gloves and holding a hoe, clearing the land at the gate of the yard.
This was real land reclamation. The vacant land in the courtyard was reclaimed and the soil was turned neatly.
"Brother Xiao Zang, where have you been so early in the morning? My phone is unreachable." Shen Yuemo asked hurriedly when she saw Li Zang coming back.
"Oh, my phone doesn't have international roaming activated."
Shen Yuemo:? ? ?
What is international roaming?
"What are you doing?" Li Zang expressed his confusion about Shen Yuemo's inexplicable land reclamation behavior.
"Oh, I plan to open up some land and grow some vegetables."
"In this weather... growing vegetables?"
Li Zang looked at the sky. It wasn't snowing today, but the wind was still cold and it wasn't very warm.
Growing vegetables in this weather? Maybe this tiger lady has some misunderstanding about the cold resistance of the vegetables?
Li Zang smiled and said, "Please don't make things difficult for the dishes."
Shen Yuemo blushed, she naturally knew what Li Zang meant, and said: "Do I look like a real tiger? I have already placed an order online to buy some greenhouse materials, and I can set it up when they are delivered!"
The greenhouse...
That's no problem.
Li Zang looked at Shen Yuemo who seemed to be enjoying it, and asked curiously: "How did you come up with the idea of growing vegetables at home?"
"Yesterday's meal was a failure. I think it must be a problem with the ingredients. I want to grow my own!" Shen Yuemo said cunningly.
Li Zang: “…”
If you are not a good cook, blame the poor quality of eggs. It’s great, really great!
Wait, if the eggs are not fried well, what does that have to do with the dish?
Hmm... could it be because of those leeks?
Yes, fried eggs with leeks, not many leeks, but a lot of vinegar and sugar… Li Zang thinks it is forgivable to add chili sauce, but the taste of adding vinegar and sugar is something you can really remember for a lifetime.
A lifetime nightmare!
Li Zang said, "I think it might be the eggs. Do you want to lay a few yourself?"
Shen Yuemo narrowed his eyes and fought back: “I dare to play, do you dare to eat?”
Li Zang:? ? ?
Wait, how do I download it?
Li Zang didn't dare to think about it any further, so he squatted aside with his hands in his pockets, watching Shen Yuemo working hard on the land.
Shen Yuemo was quite reserved and continued to do her job in front of Li Zang, and her movements were quite quick.
In a short while, she had finished half of her work.
If this had happened in the past, she would have had to work for a while and then rest for a while, but now it’s different, she is very strong!
Li Zang watched for a long time, then smiled and said, "You are quite skilled at digging the ground. Is it a talent?"
"No, my grandma was bored at home, so she pulled out all the green plants in the yard and planted vegetables instead. Sometimes I would help her."
Shen Yuemo also talked about the vegetables her grandmother had grown, tomatoes, peas, spinach, cabbage...including but not limited to various fruits and vegetables, there are many varieties.
It has to be said that infrastructure and planting are talents deeply rooted in the Chinese people.
The old lady of the Shen family fully proved this point.
Li Zang still had some impression of the old lady of the Shen family. After all, she often gave him snacks when he was a child and would force them on him.
He has always liked that kind old lady.
The same is true for the old man in Li Zang's family. Whenever there is a piece of vacant land, they must plant something. This way they can always ensure that the vegetables at home are not changed twice every three days.
Shen Yuemo worked for a while, raised his head and said, "Why are you just watching? Can't you take the initiative to offer to help? I want to grow some food for you."
Li Zang smiled, stood up, took the hoe and started to hoe the ground.
This time, he did not use any divine power, but did it himself, relying solely on his mortal body to do the work throughout the process.
Of course, his so-called mortal body is much stronger than that of ordinary people.
This time, it was Shen Yuemo's turn to squat aside with his hands in his pockets and watch the fight.
I have to say, it's really interesting to watch people work.
While working, Li Zang said, "Momo, let me ask you a question. If one day everyone on Earth embarked on the path of cultivation, would that be a good thing?"
Shen Yuemo thought about it and said, "Doesn't that mean everyone can live a long time?"
Li Zang nodded.
Spiritual practice is naturally accompanied by an increase in lifespan. Apart from anything else, even if lifespan does not increase, common diseases will become a thing of the past, because accidental deaths will also be greatly reduced.
After all, everyone will have a good physique, have good cultivation, and all diseases will disappear naturally. They will also have a certain ability to protect themselves in the event of an accident.
Shen Yuemo said: "Then the population will explode. The earth is so small and the resources are so limited. They will definitely start fighting all of a sudden."
Shen Yuemo did not say that the earth cannot support the population. In fact, human beings are just insignificant things to the earth, and it can fully afford it.
The only ones who cannot bear it are human beings themselves.
From a macro perspective, resources determine the population size. Once resources cannot support the needs of the population, war for resources will break out.
If nothing else, food is a problem.
The earth is so small, there is only so much land suitable for farming, and we need to live there and develop other industries...
Shen Yuemo said softly: "The era of universal cultivation seems beautiful, but the advent of the new era will inevitably be accompanied by the reconstruction of the old order, just like if I want to plant vegetables now, I must turn the soil first, but the moment I turn the soil, the original environment will be destroyed."
"Of course, I'm not saying that it's bad for everyone to practice, but the risks involved are not small."
Shen Yuemo probably guessed what Li Zang wanted to do, or rather, the clues could be seen from the appearance of the Yuanshan Secret Realm.
With Xiao Zangge's strength in killing immortals and confronting the way of heaven in the fairy world, it would definitely be easy for him to re-seal the secret realm.
But Xiao Zangge did not do that, which is very telling.
Brother Xiao Zang seems to hope that spiritual energy will be revived, and is actively promoting this to happen.
Shen Yuemo had no objection to this, because she was also a beneficiary, and she also hoped to stay with Xiao Zangge forever, so she had to practice and become stronger to have a chance to get what she wanted.
Although I don’t know if I can catch up, I will definitely try my best.
Li Zang asked again: "What if the plate is made bigger?"
"The earth is so small, how can there be a bigger plate..."
Shen Yuemo was stunned, then looked at Li Zang with disbelief on her face. Subconsciously, she felt that Li Zang was not joking!
She thought of the technology Li Zang had given her...
The sea of stars?
"Brother Xiao Zang, what are you going to do?"
Li Zang had just finished clearing this small piece of wasteland and said with a smile: "Nothing, I just thought that good things should be shared. I can't be the only one happy, right? If I were the only one living in this world, it would be so boring."
"Someone has to lead us forward, and at the moment, it seems that I am the best person to take the lead."
Shen Yuemo corrected him: "Brother Xiaozang, you should call yourself this seat at this time, that's more handsome."
Li Zang: “…”
Damn, this tiger woman...
