An hour and a half later, the four of them finally finished this sumptuous seafood buffet feast with great satisfaction.
According to rough estimates, the amount of food consumed in this feast was spectacular: clams and conchs piled up into a small mountain, weighing more than five pounds; a majestic lobster shell stood proudly in the middle, four plump crab shells lay on the side, and ten round and plump sea urchin shells dotted around... However, if we talk about the most consumed item, it must be oysters, and two large basins of oysters were already empty.
Under the gentle care and attentive service of the three girls, Lu Xuan became the absolute protagonist of this oyster feast. He enjoyed more than thirty oysters by himself and even ate so much that he was full.
"I'm so full...it's so delicious. It would be great if we could eat seafood every day."
Yin Yichen rubbed her belly, still savoring the delicious seafood meal.
"After you finish eating, remember to work. You must repair the fence and bamboo gate tonight, or you won't be allowed to sleep."
The meal is over, and now it’s time to get back to work.
Lu Xuan stood up and began to arrange the afternoon work.
"Handsome boy, you are going to rebel against Tian Gang. You are really an exploitative capitalist, even more cruel than our Meng Yao."
While Yin Yichen was complaining, she also brought up President Leng.
"Don't blame me. I'm a staunch supporter of the eight-hour workday, and I always pay overtime for overtime."
Leng Mengyao expressed her core point as a president: she is a conscientious entrepreneur.
"Eight-hour work system? And overtime pay? Then ask your subordinate... whether she has done so."
Hearing Leng Mengyao's words, Lu Xuan suddenly had something to say, pointing at Shen Keyin who was still cleaning up the mess. This beautiful woman was not a good person when she was in the company, and she exploited the working people at the bottom.
"Hehe... Well... well, there's nothing I can do. The department is short-staffed..."
"Stop it, I see, you capitalists are exploiting us at every level. Oh, and I'm shorthanded right now, so get to work! If you don't finish, you won't have dinner or sleep. Do you understand?"
It's a rare opportunity that I'm in power now, so I have to show off my power as a leader.
"Little handsome boy, that's very well said! Overthrow these capitalists, sister supports you. But you and I have no grudges in the past or in the present, so can I do less?"
Yin Yichen blinked her big eyes, flattering Lu Xuan while trying to bargain.
"You enjoy too much every day, so now's a good time to even things out. Haven't you heard this saying online? Work is your main mission in life. As for the so-called major events in life, they're actually accomplished by taking time off. For example, you take wedding leave when you get married, and women take maternity leave when they have children... So don't thank me, I'm helping you complete your main mission in life."
This Yin Yichen still wants to stay out of this? No way.
Lu Xuan immediately offered a bunch of twisted logic.
Under the relentless urging of this new capitalist, the three girls resumed their afternoon work.
"I didn't realize you were so good at exploiting your subordinates. I should have given you a promotion."
While Leng Mengyao was inserting bamboo, he did not forget to tease Lu Xuan.
"No need for a promotion, little brother. I don't need it. You can consider giving me money directly. I have everything I need, except money. I don't need much, just a small goal will be enough..."
Lu Xuan gathered more than a dozen bamboos, cut them one by one, handed them to Leng Mengyao, and dreamed of getting rich.
"A small goal? You're really asking for too much. Okay, okay, okay, my boss Lu, I'll give you more money when I get back. But now, let's think about sleeping tonight. This bamboo wall should be finished before sunset, but I'm afraid the Simmons mattress, bedding, and sleeping bag won't dry out. The humidity on this island is still very high, and it probably won't dry out until tomorrow. We'll have to find some leaves and branches to use as bedding, otherwise I'm afraid we won't be able to sleep tonight."
Leng Mengyao was still meticulous and quickly pointed out the main problem his group was facing.
I've found most of the things I needed to find, and I've filled my stomach. I can work overtime on this damaged defense project and it should be mostly finished before dark. The only thing I can't do is make the bedding...
This matter is not a big deal, but it is not small either. The sleep quality of the workers must be guaranteed, otherwise it will affect their work the next day.
"Alright, I'll go find some broken branches and leaves, I'll leave this to you. Hey, you two should work hard too, boss, I'm going to go find some bedding..."
Before leaving, Lu Xuan did not forget to supervise the other two laborers.
"I know, Capitalist Lu... Keyin, you better control your man. He's exploiting our labor again. I'm going to sue him at the Labor Bureau!"
Yin Yichen, who was looking for a handy tool in the cave, muttered something, ran back to the front yard, and started to complain about Lu Xuan.
"Lu Xuan, please be careful and don't go too far. It's raining, so watch your step..."
However, it seemed that Yin Yichen's complaint was not submitted at all. Shen Keyin was more concerned about Lu Xuan's safety.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. The most important thing for you is to put up the bamboo forest gate. This time, tie it more tightly and make the foundation more solid."
After giving some more instructions, Lu Xuan said goodbye to the three girls for the time being, dragged the cart, took a machete and an axe to the jungle on the east side of the backyard to find bedding for tonight.
The reason for coming here was that Lu Xuan had seen many traveler's palms growing well in this jungle.
Secondly, it had just rained today, and Lu Xuan estimated that it was highly likely that the savages would not step through the accumulated water to visit his doorstep, so it was basically safe here.
Of course, Lu Xuan didn't walk too far. He stopped in the jungle four or five hundred meters away from his home and began to pick traveler's banana leaves.
At the bottom of the jungle, there is a large area of traveler's palm trees. From a distance, it looks like a lush green scene.
This traveler's banana, with its unimaginably large leaves, stands proudly in the jungle. Each leaf seems like a giant fan carefully carved by nature. Picking any one of them can easily surpass Lu Xuan's height.
The most jaw-dropping piece among them is that a single piece can completely wrap Lu Xuan's entire body, so this traveler's banana leaf naturally becomes the best choice for bedding.
In just a few moments, Lu Xuan had deftly collected the traveler's banana leaves. There were about thirty green banana leaves, enough for his group to use tonight.
Lu Xuan placed the leaves that had piled up like a small mountain on the cart, and then picked up some broken branches.
Looking at the cart filled with goods, Lu Xuan prepared to go home.
But just as I turned around, I heard a rustling sound behind me...
Lu Xuan turned around suddenly and saw an "acquaintance"...
