The five people went back in high spirits.

Fang Xiaoya and Li Jinhui both had different feelings about Xia Zhi Liu Qianjin and Liu Zhiyan.

There are obviously some discrepancies with the three people who knew the story.

Besides, just seeing that Xia Zhi was able to lead Liu Qianjin, and they found lotus roots there, they had to marvel at how well-informed this girl was.

Even if they were to see the dead branches and leaves, they would never recognize it as a lotus root.

The two people carried the mat back to the nest, thanked Xia Zhi and went back to clean up their nest.

The three of them returned to their homes.

It's been freezing outside for a long time.

The temperature outside is too low.

Summer Solstice added some firewood to the stove.

He rubbed his shoulders and started preparing to cook.

I have already thought about dinner. It should be simple. I will prepare fried rice and make cornmeal paste.

Anyway, they had a great harvest today. They brought back two baskets of duck eggs and planned to stay up late at night to find a way to marinate the duck eggs.

If you want to be extravagant now, you should be fine with fried rice with duck eggs and green onions.

Even if there is no vinegar and chili, if there is any, fried hot and sour lotus root will be delicious.

I was a little worried about the seasoning when I heard a knock on the door outside.

"Summer Solstice!"

A familiar voice.

Liu Qianjin had already skipped over to open the door. Since he ate Captain Zhou's chicken nuggets at noon, Liu Qianjin now regarded Captain Zhou as a meat dish.

Liu Qianjin warmly welcomed Captain Zhou.

Sure enough, Captain Zhou came in carrying two more lunch boxes.

Xia Zhi glanced at the lunch box.

"Rice?"

Captain Zhou nodded. In fact, he also guessed that the leftover rice at noon must be dealt with in the evening.

That is to say, rice can only be eaten in their canteen, and what people give out outside is flour.

Hand over the lunch box. This is your own ration and also your sincerity in joining the team.

Xia Zhi nodded when he saw the lunch box full of rice. If fried like this, plus the rice for lunch, it would be enough for four people.

"By the way, I also brought you four small mazaars. These were made by our old Liu, who is very good at making mazaars.

I originally asked him to spend two days, but he said that he happened to have something ready on hand and asked him to bring it over first. Just wait until he is finished and add these four mazars. "

Zhou Zhengan took out four more horses from behind.

This kind of mazaar is quite strong.

Belts are used on them.

Xia Zhi couldn't help but feel a little excited after seeing it. After all, the ability to make this kind of thing by oneself is still not satisfactory. A small bench made of reeds can't compare to this kind of horse.

It's always a surprise to be able to add something to this meager place.

The room also felt more and more smoky.

Rice fried with duck eggs and scallions, plus a cold lotus root, and cornmeal batter.

Today's soup is really watery.

Even so, several people ate until their appetites were whetted.

Especially Zhou Zhengan, they can't buy anything like lotus root here.

Even in summer, this is a luxury, after all, they don't grow it locally.

It took a lot of effort to transport it from other places.

"Where did this lotus root come from? Could it be that you brought it?"

Zhou Zhengan thought hard, but he probably couldn't figure it out. They dug it out of the reed swamp.

"Digged out of the reeds."

Liu Qianjin immediately said in a show of merit that he was still a child at heart.

Zhou Zhengan's expression became serious.

"It's impossible. I've been here for three years, and I've never found lotus roots in the reed swamp in summer."

The environment here is harsh and not much can be changed in three years. It is already extraordinary that they can build a base of this size now.

Planting wheat and cotton has been put on the agenda, but improving people's basic lives is still a blank item.

Things like lotus root have not been put on the agenda at all. In the past, I heard that someone proposed to plant lotus root locally, but it seemed that the effect was not good after planting it in some places, and they gave up in the end.

And they came here in a wasteland area, and it is said that there were not many original indigenous people.

How could lotus roots just pop up from here?

If there are really lotus roots in the reed marsh, does that mean they can grow lotus roots here?

Don't worry about anything else. First, improve the lives of the people in the district. More importantly, if there are lotus roots, their district can have economic projects that generate income.

"Really, Captain Zhou found it in the reed swamp. It was Xiaoxia who found it."

"No, I'll take someone to take a look."

Bringing projects to improve the economy to the team is naturally a big deal.

Zhou Zhengan couldn't even eat.

"Xiaoxia, come with me and go to the team headquarters."

Liu Qianjin and Liu Zhiyan naturally gave all the credit for this matter to Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi felt depressed. She originally thought she could make a fortune quietly, but this time it was better. After Captain Zhou had a meal, all his wealth was gone.

He followed Zhou Zhengan glumly.

Zhou Zhengan was walking forward happily, when he turned around and found that the summer solstice was at least 500m away from him.

Looking at his legs, he seriously suspected that he was walking too fast for Xia Zhi to keep up.

I had no choice but to stand there and wait for Xia Zhi, but the longer I waited, the more I felt something was wrong, and Xia Zhi's face became gloomy.

That doesn't look like happiness.

Finally, he couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart and asked.

"Xiaoxia, what's wrong with you? Who made you so unhappy?"

Xia Zhi rolled her eyes at Zhou Zhengan!

Captain Zhou is a straight man, he has no idea what he is thinking.

Comparing it like this, it seems that I am really a bit like a little woman who cares about everything and is not grand at all.

There is no structure and a small belly.

Xia Zhi suddenly felt even more angry.

"Did I make you angry?"

Fortunately, Zhou Zhengan is just straight and not stupid.

From Xia Zhi's look, I suddenly understood.

"If I really offended you unintentionally, if you have any questions, just tell me that I don't pay attention to details, and sometimes I don't think so carefully. You said, as long as it is my fault, I will definitely change it."

Zhou Zhengan's serious and sincere attitude made Xia Zhi's anger disappear instantly.

It was too petty for me to be angry with Zhou Zheng because of my stuttering.

Suddenly I felt that I really couldn't stand on the stage. It turned out that I was looked down upon by Ding Jiannan in my previous life. Maybe I also had many problems.

Yes, I have been reborn, so I should take a longer-term view.

"It's not your problem, it's my own problem.

Our conditions are not good, and I am a narrow-minded person. I originally thought of taking back those lotus roots and grinding them into powder to increase our food supply.

Otherwise, I’m worried that the three of us won’t be able to survive next year’s autumn harvest. "

Xia Zhi didn't hide it either. This is who he is, whether he is right or wrong, whether he is generous or narrow.

That's all myself.

A person should be honest, she was not going to pretend.
