Chapter 168 Heavy Snow
Boxi stayed on the boat. Zhang Aihua was very surprised and suspected that Jiang Si and Qin Shen had done something to him.
Two days later, everyone was envious again when they saw that Bosie was actually riding a moose on the snow.
Bosi is so capable that he has been recognized by Jiang Si and others, and they can even let him ride a moose.
Boxi's riding was not very stable, but fortunately Dahuang was very docile, so he was able to ride safely to Zhang Aihua.
It was thanks to Zhang Aihua and the others who picked him up that he had the opportunity to stay on the icebreaker and become partners with Jiang Si and the others.
He came today specifically to thank Zhang Aihua.
After obtaining the consent of Jiang Si and others, the vegetables and fruits in the vegetable garden had a bumper harvest, and they could not eat them all. But for Zhang Aihua and others, they were the ultimate delicacies in the extreme cold.
Bosi handed the fresh-keeping box to Zhang Aihua and said, "Thank you all for your care these past few days. I was fortunate enough to stay on the ship. This is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it."
It would be inappropriate to open it in front of others, so Zhang Aihua politely accepted it and then asked in a roundabout way how Boxi was kept.
Of course, Bo Xi couldn't possibly claim that he could drive away the bugs. He smiled and said, "Jiang Si and his team just happened to be short of someone to clean the warehouse. I'm capable, so they kept me."
Now he is not only responsible for raising mealworms for chickens and ducks and breeding earthworms, but also serves as Zhang Qingfang's professional assistant.
They want to plant a lot of vegetables and grains in the snow, and some seeds in the seed bank may be used. They are all labeled in English, and he can sort them out and then translate them for everyone using a translator.
Zhang Aihua's eyes flashed with envy. None of them had Bosi's luck.
Living on a boat would definitely be more comfortable than living in a cave with them.
Bosi didn't stay long and went back.
Zhang Aihua opened the slightly heavy box, and found that it was filled with some fresh fruits and vegetables, including cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants, water spinach, cabbage, and kohlrabi.
We hadn't seen it for a long time, and for a moment everyone thought they were dazzled.
Brother Qiu shook Zhang Aihua's arm excitedly, "They actually have vegetables and fruits. There must be a greenhouse on this ship!"
It’s so fucking enviable.
Zhang Aihua was already drooling with envy. It would be great if they could also live on an icebreaker or have a greenhouse.
Zhang Aihua looked at some construction debris buried underground by the strong wind and rain, then looked at the second brother, "Are any of you working on the greenhouse?"
For traditional greenhouses, it seems that plastic is all that is needed.
If they could find the raw materials, they might be able to build a greenhouse to be self-sufficient.
Another week passed in peace and tranquility.
The vulture eggs in the sauna finally made the loud noise of hatching.
As a mutant who was afraid of birds, Bosi really didn't want to go because birds of all sizes would attack him for no reason.
But he was also very curious about the hatching of vulture eggs. Since he could watch through the glass, he followed Jiang Si and the others.
The baby vulture had pecked a hole in the largest vulture egg and was struggling to get out.
The baby vulture's body was covered with wet, short, light fur, and at first glance, it looked like it was not wearing anything.
Ugly and cute, ugly and cute.
The other little vultures also hatched one after another.
There are four in total. If they can be tamed, these will be their future flying mounts.
You have to wait until they recover before feeding them.
Bosi asked curiously, "Why do you keep vultures?"
When vultures grow up, they become very large and take up a lot of space. They are far inferior to poultry in terms of eating meat and laying eggs.
Niuniu said proudly, "We will raise them up, and let them take us to the sky, wherever we want to go!"
Bosi was shocked to find out that they actually had such an incredible plan.
He praised: "What's the saying in China? 'Foresight'?"
Niuniu smiled and said, "Yeah, our sister is very far-sighted. She thought of this as soon as she saw the vulture eggs."
Boxi looked at Qin Shen and wanted to compliment him, but suddenly met Qin Shen's gaze and looked away angrily.
The food prepared for the baby vultures is meat paste made from sea fish, because we are worried that they will develop a baby bird complex.
Everyone specially sent Qin Shen and Jiang Si in together.
They are the two strongest. If the baby vulture can fly in the future, the experiments in the sky will be handed over to them first.
Seeing Qin Shen and Jiang Si, the baby vulture immediately opened its mouth wide, waiting for Jiang Si and Qin Shen to feed it.
Jiang Si fed them patiently until they were full, then they closed their eyes and fell asleep immediately. They were quite cute.
Although they are cute, they seem to be very straightforward. They poop as soon as they eat, and the sauna room is stinking.
They have all hatched, so Jiang Si decided to move them to another place and clean out the sauna room so that everyone can take a sauna when they have nothing to do.
Qin Shen and Jiang Si were just halfway through scrubbing when Jiang Linhai suddenly came over and said anxiously, "Sisi, it's snowing hard and windy again."
It hasn't snowed for a long time and the temperature has been gradually rising.
Everyone has already realized that the extreme cold may slowly disappear.
Suddenly, the wind and snow started to blow again. Jiang Si frowned, "Is it snowing particularly hard?"
"It was incredibly heavy, with heavy snowfall. I couldn't see anything around me! I was afraid our boat would be submerged in the snow."
As soon as he finished speaking, the boat began to shake.
The strong wind seemed to be about to capsize the icebreaker, it was really scary.
Jiang Si and Qin Shen went to check the iron chain and anchor, and they were still relatively stable.
However, if the wind and snow get any stronger, we may not be able to hold out for long.
If there is real danger, she can hide in space, but everyone else cannot. The safety of the icebreaker must be guaranteed.
But now the wind and snow outside are too strong, and getting off the boat will be useless, as everyone will be blown away immediately.
Jiang Si and Qin Shen could only go to the cockpit, lower all the fixed anchors, and hold them tightly to the ice surface, hoping that the icebreaker could hold on.
"Snap!" Suddenly, the power went out and the outdoor temperature dropped sharply. The icebreaker's engine was affected and the power system was also damaged.
The power was out and the temperature in the cabin dropped sharply.
Jiang Si and Qin Shen hurried back and together with everyone turned on the lights and switched on the backup generators to supply their main application areas.
We persisted until dawn, when the blizzard gradually subsided.
Qin Shen and Lu Zhifeng went to check the engine. Jiang Si suddenly felt sad. "If only I had listened to my father and dug a hole in the mountain wall."
If they encounter such a situation, they will have a place to hide.
Strong winds and heavy snow cannot blow away an entire mountain.
Jiang Linhai comforted her, "You're not Zhuge Liang, so how can you predict everything? Now that it's snowing a little, it's the same as if we can open a cave."
