Chapter 136 It's Just Pure Craving
This hundred-odd acres of land looks quite large, and with the assistance of various farming machines, the farming speed is quite fast.
Some vegetable seeds, in particular, don't even need a tiller; just pick them up and scatter them evenly on the soil, and they will take root, sprout, and grow on their own.
As the sun set and darkness fell, the hundred or so acres of land had been almost completely cultivated.
Dozens of farm machines were parked neatly at the edge of the farm.
Various small farm tools, such as hoes and shovels, are also neatly arranged on the side of the farm.
Lei Zhe carried an aluminum alloy door and ran from the direction of the building.
"Sis, can you make me a barbecue grill? Let's have a barbecue tonight to celebrate."
Meng Shiwan: ...
She silently took the door panel, melted it with her metal-based superpower, and slowly condensed it into the shape of a barbecue grill.
This barbecue grill is quite large; it can probably roast half a lamb at a time.
Tao Yarong pouted, "If you want to eat barbecue, then eat barbecue. Why do you need an excuse? What are you celebrating?"
Rezhe picked up an oversized barbecue grill and laughed, "Of course it's to celebrate having such a big farm! We'll never have to worry about food and drink again, what else is there to celebrate?"
Tao Yarong was speechless. "You're nothing, you're just greedy."
Despite saying that, everyone was quite excited when they heard that they would be having barbecue that night, and immediately got busy preparing.
Anjiewen found himself a task: "I'll go outside the farm and bring back a few trees. Lu Yu can use his fire-type ability to smolder some charcoal, and we'll have barbecue charcoal."
Lei Zhe carried the barbecue grill toward Meng Shiwan's small garden. "Sis, let's eat on your lawn. It's more romantic there."
Meng Shiwan: ...
"OK."
Tao Yarong turned and walked towards the car. "I'll go move the drinks and liquor from the truck over here. Ma Jiandong will put them on ice later. It'll be delicious."
Lu Yu looked at the meat in the freezer. "There's some beef and lamb here, but the rest aren't really suitable for barbecue."
Then he stared longingly at Meng Shiwan, waiting for her to feed him.
Meng Shiwan: ...
What I mean is, she had no idea these people could eat so much.
The batch of meat she stocked up on at the supermarket wasn't enough to feed this group for several days.
Meng Shiwan simply pulled out a pig and said, "Let's kill it."
The pig had just emerged from the space and was squealing loudly as it ran around in all directions.
Ma Jiandong and Jiang Yuan, drooling, chased after the pig with kitchen knives in hand.
Meng Shiwan then took out all the vegetables she had stored in the space, along with some barbecue skewers and various barbecue seasonings.
Lu Yu prepared the ingredients with a smile.
Qiu Zhiyi walked towards the pond. "I'm going to catch two fish. We can make grilled fish later."
The fish, shrimp and crabs that originally filled only two cubic meters are now scattered throughout this pond of more than ten acres, making them quite difficult to find.
The group of people each had their own jobs, but when it came to food, they were more enthusiastic than anyone else.
Meng Shiwan has only one thought right now: hoarding, hoarding, hoarding.
If even a small squad can eat this much now, what will it be like to support a base in the future?
Before acid rain arrives, it's essential to stockpile as many supplies as possible.
I'm leaving here tomorrow to start stocking up on supplies.
While they were cooking, Meng Shiwan thought about going back to check on Taxue.
I've been busy all day and haven't been back to the RV. I don't even know if Taxue went downstairs for dinner.
As soon as she appeared inside the RV, she heard a series of chattering and creaking sounds coming from inside.
When Meng Shiwan stood on the stairs, she was shocked to find that all the eggs she had prepared had hatched.
Chicks, ducklings, and goslings were running around on the second floor, making a mess everywhere.
Ta Xue looked like a concubine in a cold palace, her hair disheveled and nestled on the black cube. When she saw Meng Shiwan return, she looked at her with a resentful expression.
Meng Shiwan suddenly thought of a saying: "Anyone who takes care of a child will go crazy."
"Why did it hatch so quickly? Why didn't you come looking for me?"
Meng Shiwan thought it would take two or three days for them to hatch, but to her surprise, they all came out in just one day.
Ta Xue preferred to endure their incessant chirping rather than go to the farm to hide.
Ta Xue jumped down from the black cube, kicking a gosling away in the process, and then snuggled into Meng Shiwan's arms.
Meng Shiwan picked it up, and her arm felt heavy. "Ta Xue, have you gotten heavier again?"
Ta Xue nuzzled her head and froze, her round eyes staring at Meng Shiwan with resentment, full of sadness and questioning.
Meng Shiwan quickly changed her mind, "Okay, okay, it's not heavy, it's not heavy. I planted a lot of flowers on the farm, I'll take you to play."
Ta Xue glanced back and finally decided to follow Meng Shiwan.
Meng Shiwan used vines to hook out a small blanket at the back of the car, and herded the newly hatched little ones onto the blanket, carrying them all together.
He then used his water-based powers to clean the RV before carrying Ta Xue in one arm and chickens, ducks, and geese in the other, and flashed back to the farm.
The ability to teleport directly to the farm from anywhere at any time is quite useful.
She appeared on the lawn of the small garden, placed the snow-covered foot on the grass, and pointed to the little house next to it.
"That's the little house I built for you. I'll decorate it with some pet supplies later, and I'm sure you'll like it."
Ta Xue blinked, looked at Meng Shiwan, then at the surrounding environment and the small house, and a hint of happiness appeared in her round eyes.
It held its tail high, like a little broom, and walked towards her little house, looking around as it went.
Meng Shiwan then carried the chickens, ducks, and geese to the small shed prepared for them and scattered them inside.
These thirty little guys immediately started wandering around on their short legs, observing their new environment.
When Meng Shiwan was thinking about what to feed them, she realized she didn't have any feed.
This is the downside of insufficient resources; when you need something, you find that it's not available at all.
Meng Shiwan had no choice but to resign herself to her fate and take out a large soup pot from her spatial storage, place it on an iron rack, and cook a pot of soft, mushy noodles to feed the little guys.
After she finished cooking the noodles, she ladled out a small bowl of them and used her ice-based powers to cool them down, then placed it under the shed.
These little guys happily poked at the noodles and swallowed them.
Meng Shiwan put away the remaining pot of noodles to feed them next time.
The team members had prepared all the ingredients, lit the charcoal fire on the barbecue grill, and started grilling the meat, filling the air with the aroma of barbecue.
Tao Yarong waved to Meng Shiwan, "Sister, come quickly."
Meng Shiwan walked over and sat down at the table next to her. Tao Yarong brought over a plate of lamb skewers.
"Sister, try it quickly."
Meng Shiwan picked up a skewer and took a bite. It tasted really good. Lu Yu, who came from New Oriental, was quite capable.
Ta Xue smelled the aroma of meat and ran over excitedly, jumping onto the chair next to her and snatching the meat skewers from Meng Shiwan's hand.
Helpless, Meng Shiwan stuffed the lamb skewers into Ta Xue's mouth, grabbed its little mouth with her hand and pulled it open, leaving the roasted meat inside Ta Xue's mouth.
It ate with gusto, swallowing the meat skewers in no time, and then looked at the skewers in Meng Shiwan's hand, wanting more.
Meng Shiwan took out her cat's plate, put a few skewers of meat on it, and placed it on the table for her to eat.
Tao Yarong, standing nearby, watched with wide eyes.
"Sis, when did Ta Xue grow so big?"
