Chapter 183

"Eggs? So what?"

Li Sinian looked at his wife's surprised expression, a little confused, "Are you going to make cakes with eggs? I think the children will like it very much."

Among the supplies purchased this time, there are several bags of flour, which should be enough for a while.

Yan Ya shook her head and put away the box of 20 eggs like a treasure. After making sure there was no problem, she said: "If this box of eggs is eaten up, it will be gone, but what if chicks can be hatched?"

At breakfast, she was worrying about how to improve the children's diet.

Mengda Star is close to Hell Star, but they take a week to travel by extremely fast military starship, and it takes at least two or three months to travel by ordinary spaceship.

That is to say, if they order supplies from Mengda now and get the transportation permit from the Star Alliance, it will take two or three months to get the new supplies.

Can the food they brought this time last that long? Obviously not.

In this case, we need to think of other ways.

Yan Ya has seen a lot of vegetables and fruits in the green space and along the river bank. Although the variety is not rich, at least there is a stable source.

So what needs to be solved now is meat.

"Chickens can lay eggs when they grow up, and they can also be slaughtered. They are a very stable source of protein." Yan Ya looked at the eggs, her eyes shining.

As the wife of the Marshal, Yan Ya rarely cooks in her daily life, but cooking is a skill she is proficient in. At this moment, because of the problem of the children's meals, she actually started to think about raising chickens...

Li Sinian's mood was a bit complicated.

If it were in the past, he would never forgive himself for letting his wife and children work so hard for a living, but now... it is really impossible.

But think about it from another angle. He hasn't seen Yan Ya so energetic and energetic for many years.

This kind of life... may not be bad.

"Then do you know how to hatch eggs?" Li Sinian looked at the box of eggs and couldn't help asking.

This time, Yan Ya was stumped.

She had never raised chickens, let alone eggs... But she knew that hatching eggs must have certain conditions. If the requirements were not met, the eggs would become smelly after being left for a long time.

Yan Ya thought about it and said hesitantly, "Do you think Jiujiu can hatch eggs?"

Speaking of which, they haven't seen the little tit since yesterday...

Li Sinian also thought of Xuewei's little pet, and couldn't help but twitch his lips. That little guy is not even as big as an egg, right?

"Let's check on the Star Network and ask if the base has relevant equipment?"

Although he felt that the base should be unlikely to have a hatching machine, how can we know if we don't ask? Or...

"Let's ask a few breeders first?" Li Sinian suggested.

If chicks are really hatched in the future, they will need a place to be raised, and this requires the consent of the breeders.

Yan Ya nodded in agreement.

So, just as Su Ci passed on the spiritual plant master's method to the two breeders, Li Sinian and his wife came over with a box of eggs.

Hearing their proposal, Su Ci also thought it was good.

Although meat can be obtained by hunting, because of living in resentment for a long time, the prey often cannot be eaten directly and needs to be soaked and purified in a clean water pool.

This is a troublesome matter after all. If the human base has a stable supply of meat, Su Ci will naturally not refuse.

And eggs are indeed a good ingredient.

Recalling the delicious food made with eggs in his memory, Su Ci nodded happily, then took the eggs and handed them to A Yan who had been silently accompanying him.

Seeing Su Ci's actions, Li Sinian and Yan Ya were awakened. When was this keeper named Zhou Yan here? Or has he always been here?

Why don't I have any impression of him...

A Yan took the box of eggs with a smile and said, "Well, I know, I'll give it a try."

"Do you know how to hatch eggs?" Yan Ya asked curiously.

"I know a little." A Yan said, "Why don't we build a chicken shed first."

Twenty eggs, if all can be hatched, the scale of the chicken flock is not small, and a place must be fenced for the chicks to live.

The base is now filled with red mist. Although there are five small garlics that can help dispel the resentment, it will probably take some time to completely dispel it, so the chicken coop can only be built in the nursery.

Fortunately, there is still space in front of the nursery building, and it can be built in the corner.

So when Luo Shengfei received the news from the nursery, he brought his teammates and materials and rushed over through the teleporter, feeling a little confused.

Breeder Su is finally not satisfied with planting, and now he is embarking on the road of breeding?

To be honest...

Luo Shengfei is quite looking forward to it!

You know, their current food is much better than before! The cubs can only eat nutritious frozen food, can't they?

If you want to have extra meals, you can only redeem them with points, but the food you redeem is rarely fresh, which is really expensive and not tasty.

But now it is different!

In the logistics department, there are fresh fruits and vegetables every day. The largest quantity is the star chain fruit, and you can often see S+ quality ones.

Although it cannot be guaranteed to be supplied to everyone every day, on average, you can basically eat some green fruits and vegetables every day, and if you are lucky, you can even eat the super high-quality star chain fruit.

Luo Shengfei has eaten it two or three times, and the wonderful taste is so good that it makes people want to swallow their tongues.

And the biggest contributor to this is not the cultivation garden, but the nursery...

Who would have thought that the small green space opened up in the nursery building could provide so many fruits and vegetables? Although some of them are also produced in the cultivation garden.

But after eating it a few times, Luo Shengfei could tell which ones were produced in the nursery and which ones were grown in the cultivation garden.

Especially the star chain fruit, only those who eat it know the difference.

Now that he heard that the nursery was actually planning to build a shed to raise chickens, Luo Shengfei was both surprised and excited.

In the past, it was impossible to breed poultry locally, mainly because the impact of pollutants was too great. Not to mention the problem of feed supply, it was difficult to ensure that these poultry could be stable and not mutate.

After all, even humans have to be purified at regular intervals, not to mention these birds that have no wisdom and cannot control their emotions.

It is impossible to ask the already scarce number of purifiers to purify these poultry every day, right? And once these animals mutate, it will also bring a lot of trouble.

However, now, these are no longer a problem.

With the garlic flavor of mutated garlic to drive away the red fog, coupled with the powerful purification power of Su breeders, and the green plants grown by the nursery, all conditions seem to be mature.

Then it is absolutely feasible to try to raise some poultry.

Luo Shengfei didn't think about meat, but...if the chicken shed is really built in the future, will we be able to eat eggs every day?

"Uncle Camel, what are you doing?"

When Luo Shengfei was thinking about the future, the cheerful and lively voice of the wolf cub rang out.

Luo Shengfei came back to his senses, looked at the cubs who were curiously looking outside the shed, and couldn't help but smiled and said, "At the request of breeder Su, we are here to build a chicken shed."

Chicken shed?

What is that?

Almost all the cubs, including Xuewei, blinked in confusion, not knowing what he was talking about. Only the wolf cub's eyes lit up.

He asked in surprise, "Does the nursery need to raise chickens?"

When he was in the pirate base, the pirate who adopted him raised a nest of hens for laying eggs. Cleaning the chicken shed and picking eggs are one of his daily tasks.

He has been doing this since he was a child, and he is very familiar with it!

Luo Shengfei looked at the little wolf cub and was a little surprised by his performance, but still shook his head and said, "I don't know about this. If you want to know the specific information, you have to ask Su the breeder."

"Okay then." Langze scratched his head, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he and his friends curiously watched the work of the maintenance team.

The cubs now are no longer the "little monsters" before, and the members of the maintenance team have also become familiar with these children.

Last time when they built the greenhouse, they drank the tea prepared by the cubs. This time, they brought their own tea leaves or coffee powder, and then asked the children for water.

The water in the brooding house really feels different from that in other places!

After drinking it again, they also felt this more intuitively. Every maintenance worker was very lucky to have the opportunity to work in the brooding house this time -

the construction of the chicken coop is much easier than that of the greenhouse, so naturally it does not require so many people. There are few places, and many people want to come, so naturally they have to compete for it.

Now the brooding house has become a hot spot. There are many people who want to work here. Even if there are no other benefits, just looking at these well-behaved and cute cubs can heal their hearts that have been tormented on this depressing hell planet for many years.

Those who got the chance, of course, had to cherish this rare moment!

So in between work, they tried every way to amuse the cubs to talk. Some of the more petty ones even brought gifts to the cubs, causing several children to gather around them to ask for candy.

Being surrounded by these cute cubs with beast ears and tails, just seeing their bright smiles was such a happy thing.

Even if it cost a lot of points to exchange for candy, it was worth it!

Not to mention, even the cute panda cubs crawled over and whimpered like the cubs to ask for a candy.

The other maintenance team members who had nothing in their hands were envious when they saw this situation, but they were not as well prepared as them, so they could only look at them with hatred.

Such a hated guy should be put in a sack!

However, no matter how long they procrastinate, the chicken coop will be built eventually. When the maintenance personnel were reluctant to leave, Rong Heng, who had been with his sister all the time, seemed relatively calm and unmoved by the temptation of candy, came over from a distance.

He called out awkwardly, "Uncle Luo."

Rong Heng had been persecuted by the research institute and was hostile to other adults in the base. Now that he called them like this, it was a great improvement.

And Luo Shengfei was quite touched to hear that finally there was a cub who stopped calling him "little camel".

He squatted in front of Rong Heng, and his voice unconsciously became twitchy, and he only heard him say: "Your name is Rong Heng, right? What do you want?"

Hearing this voice that suddenly became sweet, Rong Heng was a little annoyed, he couldn't help but take a step back, a little regretful for taking the initiative to talk to this person.

However, when he turned around and saw Lu Li, he pursed his lips and asked Luo Shengfei: "Do you need fruit?"

"Fruit?" Luo Shengfei blinked.

"Yes, Star Chain Fruit." Rong Heng took one out of the soul storage bag.

When facing the two cultivators before, he was still vigilant to hide the existence of the soul storage bag, but now he has figured it out.

With Su Su here, who dares to steal their things? What's more...

Rong Heng glanced at the distance, at Li Sinian and his wife who were looking at this side, paused, and then retracted his gaze.

Although he still felt unfamiliar with them and could not accept their closeness, but... they seemed to have some influence on him.

"This fruit... is it for me?" Luo Shengfei's moving voice rang out.

"No." Rong Heng said very ruthlessly.

Luo Shengfei's expression changed, and he asked curiously: "Then what you mean is..."

"If you want, you can exchange it." Rong Heng said.

This was the inspiration he got from Lu Li last time. Later, he also exchanged some things with the patrol team nearby, but now Su Su restricted him from traveling, so he naturally had to find another way.

"Okay, okay, what do you want to exchange?"

Although it was different from what Luo Shengfei had thought, this development was still surprising.

"I want two communicators." Rong Heng said.

Luo Shengfei was immediately embarrassed, "If I want two communicators, this fruit may not be enough..."

"Then how many do you want?"

So the two of them discussed how many fruits they could exchange for communicators.

Seeing this, the marshals and their husbands in the distance felt a little sad. The child wanted something, but he never thought of asking them for it. Instead, he saved money and picked fruits to exchange...

Yan Ya wanted to go forward, but was stopped by Li Sinian.

"This is Xiangyang's choice. We should respect him." Li Sinian whispered.

Although the child is young, he has his own ideas.

Yan Ya also knew this, and finally she could only stay where she was, watching Rong Heng and Luo Shengfei negotiate the deal, and then returned to her sister.

Although the young boy appeared very calm, the look of excitement between his eyebrows showed his joy after completing the deal.

If this is what he wants, then as parents, they can only support it...

After the maintenance team left, A Yan held the eggs and entered the shed, and put them one by one into the temperature control device.

Although this device is not professional for hatching eggs, with A Yan, the omniscient spirit of rules, there will be no other problems as long as the temperature can be adjusted.

After he set it up, he temporarily left the chicken coop.

The cubs immediately squeezed into the shed. Fortunately, A Yan had considered this situation long ago, so he built the shed large enough to accommodate so many cubs at a time.

Even the cool Ran Lie couldn't help but follow in to see.

Through the transparent glass, you can see eggs lying in the warm light, which makes people feel warm in their hearts.

So, what will come out of these eggs? What will the chicks that are said to lay eggs look like when they grow up?

I heard that they look similar to Jiujiu?

So, when Jiujiu was taken out of the underground seal by Su Ci for a walk, he was surrounded by the cubs.
