Chapter 103 Bacon
Pu Zhi silently took note of Dr. Shang Xi's affairs, but she was more surprised that Dr. Lin Qiuzhi had been her disciple for 20 years, yet he looked only in his early thirties with few wrinkles on his face.
I couldn't help but ask, "When did Dr. Lin become Dr. Shangxi's apprentice? I think he looks very young."
In response to her question, Ye Zhou showed a look of astonishment: "Dr. Lin is already 40 years old, and everyone says that he looks much younger than his actual age. Even Dr. Shang Xi couldn't help but say that he hasn't changed at all in the past 20 years, except that he has matured a little."
Pu Zhi: "40 years old, then doesn't that mean he became Dr. Shangxi's disciple when he was 20 years old?"
Ye Zhou: "Yes, Dr. Lin was admitted to university at the age of 17, to graduate school at the age of 20, and to a doctorate at the age of 22. He has been called a child prodigy since he was young. If he wasn't so smart, the doctor wouldn't have chosen him."
"What about the other student?" Pu Zhi asked.
When Ye Zhou heard Pu Zhi mention this, his eyes were full of regret: "Another student died in a fire in the laboratory ten years ago. She was also a rare genius, two years younger than Dr. Lin. Her name was Shi Yun."
Pu Zhi said with regret: "God is jealous of talented people, what a pity."
…
Lunch time.
Du Tao helped Du's mother move out the pots and pans and started cooking. The fire was powered by a small gas tank that could last for half a month.
Mother Du felt so distressed when she saw the wilted green vegetables that she poured water from the bucket beside her to wash them, then stir-fried some dried garlic with oil and threw them in.
With a sizzling sound, the water and oil collide violently and the fragrance bursts out.
The soldiers standing by looked at the bright green vegetables with envy, and their mouths watered uncontrollably.
The cook in charge of cooking was also feeling uncomfortable. He silently opened a bag of dried vegetables and poured them into a pot of water with just a little oil and salt.
There are about a hundred of them, and they only have this bag of dried vegetables for the day. After they eat this meal, there will be no more for dinner.
After cooking the vegetables, Mother Du took out the bacon that she had cut in advance and poured it into the hot pan to stir-fry. The aroma was so delicious that it would make you hungry.
I dare to ask who in Xiangnan Province doesn’t miss the bacon. They haven’t eaten it for two years, but here they can smell the flavor that only exists in dreams.
Although the base sells bacon, the price is almost twice that of ordinary meat. Without some savings, one dare not eat it. Even Ye Zhou, the team leader, has only eaten it once in the past two years.
Moreover, the salary of ordinary soldiers is not enough to buy even normal meat. They are thankful that the military canteen has more oil. How can they afford to buy such expensive stuff?
Jin Nong was cooking in the fourth team. Jin Na came over after smelling the aroma and said, "You guys even prepared bacon? That's really unfair! When it's ready, please let me taste a piece so I can test the poison for you."
Even the sheep couldn't resist his curiosity and walked over with an elegant cat step: "Meow~"
Jin Na came close to Pu Zhi and said with a smile: "Mother Du's cooking skills are so good that even Yangyang couldn't help but want to try it."
Pu Zhi turned around and took out a box of washed and cut bacon from the trunk and handed it to her. She was still very good to her allies: "I found this two-year-old bacon when I went out before. I'm giving it to you."
Jin Na took it with surprise: "This...this...this is too expensive, then I won't be polite, hehe."
After saying that, she happily walked back to her team and came out with a handful of dried chilies: "Here, a return gift. This tastes better when added to meat."
Seeing Pu Zhi was a little surprised, she explained: "Why, you can even find bacon, but you don't allow me to find dried chili peppers outside. This kind of thing is usually found in farmers' homes. If I hadn't gone there early, it would have been found by others."
Zhao Yunyao leaned over, took the peppers and put three of them into the pot where the bacon was being fried. The aroma in the pot became even stronger.
The crops cultivated at the base are all high-yield and can provide a solution to food and clothing. The base does not have any stock of crops such as peppers.
This little bit of chili is even more valuable than bacon.
The four teams gathered around Jin Nong. The bacon smelled so good. Yang Yang saw that he also had bacon, so he walked away with cat steps and rubbed his huge cat head against Jin Nong's back.
"We can't eat it raw, but Yangyang can eat it. Let Yangyang taste it for us first!" The four teams were not angry when they were squeezed away. Instead, they asked for food on behalf of Yangyang.
Jin Nong had no choice but to take out a piece. Yang Yang sniffed it a few times with the tip of his nose, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he ate it carefully.
The piece of meat was too small for the 1.5-meter-tall sheep, and it was gone in just two smackings.
"Meow~" After giving his evaluation, Yangyang sat leisurely next to another pot, which contained dried vegetables, two pounds of pork and a whole chicken. These were all the food for him, a meow.
That’s right, the food of this cat is better than that of the people in the four teams, because it is the main force.
Especially since it had just been upgraded to level four some time ago, it actually awakened the ability to attack with sonic waves, which is also useful against zombies.
So it is true that the food expenses of Team 4 are the highest among the hunting teams. Almost half of the points earned by the four teams go into the mouths of Yangyang.
Jinna looked at Xiaoren with envy: "Oh, it would be great if Yangyang had the same appetite as your Xiaoren."
Xiao Ren: Hehehe…
Pu Zhi calmly opened the listening conch, and was relieved to hear that Xiao Ren did not talk nonsense.
However, Xiaoren's appetite is much bigger than Yangyang's. It eats more than ten kilograms of food in one meal, and at least twenty to thirty kilograms a day. If he hadn't opened so many supplies from the blind box, he would not be able to support three gluttons.
Qingyin is no longer the poor little thing he used to be. He can be fed with a handful of fertilizer and a bottle of water.
Now she can eat a 20-jin bag of fertilizer in one meal, and water by the bucket. From the previous Lin Daiyu, she is almost eating like a King Kong Barbie.
It was inconvenient for him to stay in the space for too long when he was on a mission, so the task of preparing meals for Xiaoren and Qianli fell to Qingyin.
The branches, which were originally not as thick as fingers, suddenly grew ten times larger. The undulating lines on them looked very much like human muscle lines, and they could carry pieces of meat that were a hundred times heavier than themselves.
In space.
Qingyin: Why do I feel like Xiaozhi is talking about me?
Then it quickly forgot about it and started having fun in the space.
The space it has now reached is almost the size of the capital city of Luofeng. It takes a long time to patrol the territory every day. It is now playing hide-and-seek with Qianli, and it is responsible for catching him.
At this time, Qianli was hiding in a pile of meat, leisurely gnawing on a piece of steak, and his tail slapped the ground from time to time. Life was too comfortable, what should he do if he didn't want to move?
Qingyin was turning around and saw a bunch of unfamiliar things, and poked them curiously.
There is no scent of Puzhi on these things, and it has never seen it before. Where did they come from...
