Work one day and rest for three days. Lazy donkey will produce a lot of shit and piss.
It took more than a month to hand in the wood, stones, sand, steel bars and tiles, and successfully accumulated 60,000 points.
Jiang Ning looked through the list of exchangeable materials, which were all food, clothes, cigarettes, alcohol and the like, but nothing she wanted, so she gave up the idea of continuing to accumulate points.
A lot of materials were handed over, and a lot of space was freed up for continued planting.
Huo Yishen was worried that he had exhausted her. "Why don't we go find the sharp-nosed monkey and see if we can get a planter and a harvester in exchange?"
OK, now we are just waiting for the new city district to be completed, so we can just sit there and do nothing anyway.
Unexpectedly, the sharp-nosed monkey disappeared!
I searched for it on Trading Street for several days but couldn't find it.
Jiang Ning remembered that the last time he came on his 28-inch bicycle, he seemed to have said that Lao Luo lived near Aoyuan.
So we looked for Lao Luo first and finally caught the sharp-nosed monkey.
"Sister, what do you want from me?"
The monkey was covered in dust and said hurriedly, "I'm going to pick up trash."
His wife insisted on living in a house in the new city area, but even if he tried his best, he still couldn't get the points. Isn't it like risking his life to earn them?
Jiang Ning frowned, "How did you end up like this?"
Alas, it’s all tears when I talk about it.
The sea water was polluted by ancient viruses, and this source of income was completely cut off.
The extreme heat is over, the weather is getting cooler day by day, and there is no more water shortage.
The extremely strong earthquake buried almost everything under rubble except for the survivors.
When the new urban area was being built, the municipal government took advantage of the rich and went door to door to do ideological work, lobbying them to donate as much supplies as possible, which scared them into having to eat bran and vegetables every day - the landlords didn't have any surplus food.
The supplies are destroyed, the lower class cannot afford to consume, and the rich dare not consume. Isn't it hard for these middlemen?
I won’t say any more. I’m busy moving bricks.
Jiang Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Your boss is watching you carry bricks every day?"
"Our boss suffered even greater losses, as many of his supplies were destroyed in the earthquake."
Even though he is often beaten, the sharp-mouthed monkey is still determined to protect his parents who provide him with food and clothing. "He is trying to buy a villa, but he has so many brothers under him, we can't just pick on him, we have to fight on our own, and the boss will pay for the shortfall in the end."
"How many points can you earn by scavenging in a day?"
“Well, just a few dozen points.” It was okay at the beginning, but not now.
Jiang Ning thought about it and decided to ask for not only a tiller and harvester, but also a few bicycles, tricycles, and donkeys. "If you can handle it, I'll give you half a truckload of steel bars."
The sharp-nosed monkey dropped his jaw in shock, "Sister, are you serious?"
"Real, more real than pearls." Look at his ignorant look.
Half a truckload of steel bars weighs at least 2 tons. The monkey's heartbeat quickened. "Sister, I'll help you get it done within three days!"
"Three days?" She seemed a bit rushed, but she was not in a hurry.
"Two and a half days." The sharp-nosed monkey was afraid that someone else would steal his business. "Sister, I can handle it. Don't treat me like a human being!"
Jiang Ning's mouth twitched. "Okay... then three days, but this matter must be kept secret and can't be made public."
You're so stupid. Who would shout about this? Are you afraid that no one will come to rob you?
Three days passed in a flash, and the sharp-nosed monkey actually got the machine. Although... well, it was quite small, at least it was intact.
A bicycle or a tricycle is fine, but my donkey has been kept for three years and I don’t know if the battery is broken.
Knowing that the machine was small, the monkey felt a little guilty and gave a bunch of accessories as compensation. "Sister, there will be absolutely no problem. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me."
There were no problems with the acceptance, Jiang Ning was very satisfied and specially gave two more circles of steel bars to make up 3 tons.
The monkey was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. Now he didn't have to be pinched by his wife anymore.
Jiang Ning was useless at mechanics, but Huo Yishen got the hang of it after a few attempts.
He sat on the seed drill, "What to plant?"
The corn is almost grown and will be ready for harvest by the time the house is handed over.
Jiang Ning calculated the time and said, "The weather is getting cooler now, so it should be okay to plant potatoes."
Therefore, all the empty space was planted with cold-resistant potatoes.
I wouldn't dare to plant it normally because it's too eye-catching.
After sowing the seeds, there were still several hundred kilograms left, and they just sat there anyway.
Jiang Ning came up with an idea, "How about giving it to He Tianming and the others?"
There are more than 100 employees in Aoyuan. Even if they work hard, not every household can afford a house. I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to even share a room.
Even children have been asked to join the fight during this period, it's like many people trying to escape from the trap, but the reality is very cruel.
But even though they are unable to take care of themselves, the community still has patrol teams every day to ensure the safety of the community and the planting area.
Jiang Ning knew that he couldn't do that, so he admired He Tianming very much.
Huo Yishen asked, "How are you going to give it?"
There is no free lunch in the end times. Even if you are willing to give it, others may not believe it.
"It's definitely not okay to give it away for free." Jiang Ning thought for a moment, "If we lend it to them, not only will they have to return the seeds, but we'll also charge them an extra 20% of the yield. What do you think?"
Huo Yishen thought it was feasible, "I'll ask him."
Take out the walkie-talkie and find He Tianming.
He Tianming was so excited when he learned that the merchant he traded seeds with last time was willing to provide potato seeds. "Sure, 20% is no problem. But you must help us keep the potato seeds and don't let others snatch them away."
Huo Yishen acted in full, and after spending a long time with Jiang Ning, he became more and more professional. "Okay, but if you don't have a good harvest, or if something unexpected happens, you have to pay compensation for planting beans. What can you use as collateral?"
He Tianming thought for a moment and said, "Solar generator, what do you think?"
"Okay, I'll go there tomorrow and tell you if I have any news."
After the deal was settled, Jiang Ning took out the potatoes and placed them in a ventilated place to age them.
The deal was reached on the second day and the transaction was completed on the third day.
The potatoes became wrinkled after being exposed to the wind for two days.
Hundreds of kilograms of potatoes were exchanged for the community’s solar generator.
Life will become extremely inconvenient if we can’t charge the battery in the future, but He Tianming encouraged us: “The potatoes can be harvested in three months. Besides, we may not dare to use solar generators in the new urban area. We should adapt to it in advance.”
Hundreds of pounds of potatoes can be cut into pieces and planted in two or three acres of land. If you apply more fertilizer and take good care of them, you may get a good harvest and you don't have to eat sweet potato seedlings every day.
The members comforted themselves, quickly accepted the fact, and got busy.
Huo Yishen reminded, "Captain He, be careful when planting potatoes, don't let anyone steal them in the dark."
So, they took turns to guard the fields.
…
After finishing dinner and washing dishes at night, Doudou looked outside and asked, "Sister-in-law, why is it not dark yet?"
When it is extremely hot, it usually gets dark at half past seven, but it is already eight o'clock now.
Jiang Ning stared outside for a long time, then took out the thermometer, 28 degrees.
The extreme heat is over, and the polar day is coming...
