Chapter 103 The Mysterious Man in Black Robes



After accelerating the ripening of a batch of grain for Zhou Heng, Zhou Heng asked, "Can you accelerate the ripening of vegetables too?"

Jiang Zhi shook her head and said, "Too much trouble, I won't do it. You can sprout beans and eat them."

Zhou Heng nodded. He wouldn't force Jiang Zhi to do it if she couldn't. Because of Jiang Zhi, the efficiency of cultivating wood-type ability users at the base had greatly improved. The current shortage of resources were crystals and clothing.

With extreme cold approaching in just a few months, and the fact that most modern clothing, especially women's clothing, is of poor quality, it will be difficult to survive the winter without warm clothing.

This winter is harder than the last one.

Under the intense workload of the past year, Zhou Heng felt that he had aged a lot and his energy was waning.

Not only him, but everyone in the base looked weathered and worn.

The temperature is about to break the 55-degree mark, and Jiang Zhi doesn't want to work during the day anymore; it's too hot.

Zong Han, the base chief of the Bright Base, stood under a large black umbrella with a bewitching woman in his arms, while an ice-type ability user was condensing ice to cool things down.

"Hua went to invite someone, why hasn't he returned yet?"

"King Zonghan, news has come back from the Shuofang base that Boss Jiang is still cooperating with the Shuofang base, and we haven't heard anything about Hua You."

Zong Han pinched the face of the beauty in his arms. She had applied skincare products, so her face was still quite moisturized. Because of the hot weather, she wasn't wearing much clothing, barely covering her private parts. Zong Han liked this style.

Extreme heat is better than extreme cold; in extreme cold, taking off your clothes is tantamount to death.

You have to take off your clothes to survive in the extreme heat.

"Send more people to investigate and find out where Hua You is now. He took so many superhumans with him; it's impossible that they were all wiped out."

"yes."

After careful consideration, Jiang Zhi changed the business hours, from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM to 6:00 PM.

Everything else remained unchanged.

The sign was still in the same place, but the indicator light was almost fading from the high temperature, so Jiang Zhi replaced it with another one.

After finishing, she went straight back to the basement to take a nap.

It's so hot, whoever wants to go out can go out, but she's not going out.

Jiang Zhi turned on the air conditioner fan, took out the sliced ​​iced watermelon and grilled cold noodles, and gave Wanfu two fruit carrots. The two of them watched TV and ate snacks.

Perhaps because she felt her period was about to start, she really wanted to eat to fill the subconscious void.

Not satisfied with just grilled cold noodles, Jiang Zhi now craved seafood.

She had bought a lot of seafood beforehand, so she decided to make a seafood dipping sauce.

However, you can't eat too much of this, or you'll get diarrhea.

After cleaning the razor clams, shrimp, clams, scallops, crab claws, and mantis shrimp, put them into boiling water and cook for a few minutes. Once they are all cooked, take them out and rinse them in ice water, then put them into a glass bowl filled with ice cubes.

The next step is to prepare the sauce.

Jiang Zhi likes a sour and spicy flavor, with a touch of sweetness.

In short, it has a strange taste.

Add sliced ​​green and red chili peppers, minced garlic, chili powder, and a sprinkle of white sesame seeds. Pour hot oil over it, sizzling and bubbling, and the aroma immediately fills the air. Then add rice vinegar, soy sauce, white sugar, salt, chicken bouillon, and MSG.

Wuhu, sprinkle some chopped scallions.

Mission accomplished.

Pour the sauce over it and stir.

A bowl of incredibly fresh and fragrant seafood in a dipping sauce is ready.

"Wow, it smells so good, meow! Mommy, I want to eat fish!" Wanfu grabbed Jiang Zhi's trouser leg, wanting to eat fish, wanting to eat fish.

How could Jiang Zhi refuse Wanfu's little request? She swallowed hard, then took a net and scooped up two dragons from the pool. With a thought, she controlled them to remove their scales and gut them.

They stopped using the knife to cut.

Deep-fry the whole fish, then braise it, and finally drizzle it with a thickened sauce. It's a very satisfying braised fish.

This dish was inspired by Jiang Zhi while eating a whole fish from a banquet she had bought.

There was a fish like this on almost every table. Jiang Zhi only took a few out to eat, and after that, whenever she wanted to eat fish, she would cook it herself.

It wasn't that she didn't want to eat it, but that she wanted to preserve the flavor.

These are the flavors of the pre-apocalyptic world; every bite is a precious treasure.

Since time is frozen anyway, there's no fear of it breaking.

"Meow, this is what Mom makes, it tastes just like home." Wanfu praised as he ate.

Jiang Zhi teased, "Oh, even the little kitten knows the smell of home now. What TV shows have you been watching lately?"

"Oh, dear parents~ But why isn't there a dad in 'Oh'?"

"Because you're a kitten, it's normal that you don't have a dad."

“Why is ‘Ao’ a kitten, and ‘Ao’ not a kitten?” Wanfu argued.

"You're the kitten, the one I picked up from the trash can, don't you remember?"

"No, it was clearly bought as a packet of instant noodles." Wanfu swallowed the fish head in one gulp, making the bones crunch loudly.

"So you still remember? It was only a few months ago." Jiang Zhi laughed as she ate.

When she encountered Wanfu, the person who sold it was waiting for it to die so he could cook and eat it. She bought Wanfu because she saw it struggling to survive.

She did return ten years after the apocalypse, but the apocalypse didn't turn her into a cold-hearted machine. Now that she has so many resources at her disposal, she naturally wants to be more carefree.

Wanfu was one of the results that brought her joy.

Jiang Zhi didn't regret buying Wanfu at all, because with this little guy, she never felt so lonely in her life.

In the post-apocalyptic world, no one can be trusted, but Wanfu is definitely different.

We will be open for business on the last day.

"Boss Jiang, it's too dangerous at night. Let's switch back to daytime. Our base is too far from here."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Jiang, there are more and more mutated beasts now, especially when it gets cooler at night, they come out in groups. We almost lost a life today."

"Boss Jiang..."

Jiang Zhi frowned and said, "Isn't it dangerous during the day? You can stand the high temperature of 60 or 70 degrees Celsius, but I can't. If you don't want to buy food, you can leave."

Upon hearing this, those who opposed him immediately fell silent, forced to swallow their words.

It seems that Mr. Jiang is unwilling to resume the previous business hours.

If that's the case, they'll have no choice but to operate during the day, set up a tent here for the night, and then go back.

Food must be stored up before the temperature rises above 65 degrees Celsius. When the temperature reaches 70 or 80 degrees Celsius, people dare not come out from underground unless they are suicidal.

Among the crowd was a maverick who wore a black robe and wrapped himself up like a dumpling, which looked very strange among the group of people with exposed arms and legs.

Jiang Zhi was registering and weighing the animals. After the registration was completed, she called out the names in order to induce germination.

Soon it was the turn of the man in black.

He pulled a hand, as stiff as withered wood, from his robe.
