Scavenging wasteland in the last days: I have fields, cattle and a villa

Although the place is simple, Brother Zhang is used to it. Almost every household in the slums is like this.

And because he had to stay for dinner, he always felt that he was getting a big advantage, so he went into the house and took a drink of water before picking up the wood.

To build a wooden house, you need to cut and smooth it, and the necessary procedures are indispensable.

Inside the house, Jiang Yuan originally wanted to cook, but Lin Xiao took over.

I'm not reluctant to part with dried meat, but it would be a lot of trouble for a family like theirs to take it out, so tonight's dinner will be vegetarian.

A plate of cold green peppers, two pounds of chestnuts cooked, rice and vegetable porridge, salt and a little rapeseed oil.

After Brother Zhang was served, he swallowed his saliva very shamelessly.

"There's no need for such a rich meal. Let's just have some porridge."

Who would be willing to eat like this? If there is rice, I put a little bit in it and cook the vegetables.

But theirs is decorated with green vegetables and a lot of rice.

Not only that, but the chestnuts are cooked dry instead of being made into porridge, and they are eaten cold with green peppers?

What a luxury.

Brother Hei was touched and guilty for a moment. He just felt that this family was so sincere that they actually brought out the best food to entertain him.

In an instant, his love for Lin Xiao rose to another level.

Jiang Yuan can't say that she has been eating so well during this period, and there is also meat, right?

He just smiled and asked Brother Zhang to eat.

Because there are not enough bowls at home, I just asked Brother Zhang to make two wooden bowls out of wood. Although they are not exquisite, they are perfectly fine for holding food.

While eating, Jiang Yuan also learned about Brother Zhang’s origins.

Forty-five years old, his wife was widowed. He was also from the slums, but because his son was working in the safe zone, and he himself was considered a craftsman, he became a blacksmith. His son gave him scrap metal from the safe zone, and he made it. Various iron tools are exchanged for supplies. Although I live in a slum, I live a pretty good life.

Moreover, it was Brother Zhang who helped Lin Xiao settle in the slums. He is still a very good person.

After a delicious meal, it was getting dark.

Brother Zhang stayed for half an hour and then drove his tricycle home.

The next two days were spent building a small house.

Jiang Yuan dug in the soil nearby. When she found something edible, she dug up seedlings and prepared them for planting later.

With the help of Brother Zhang, a small wooden house of about 20 square meters was quickly built. As for the internal affairs, Lin Xiao did not involve Brother Zhang. The matter of growing vegetables should be kept secret for safety reasons.

Of course, Brother Zhang brought some food with him in the past two days and ate it with their family. After all, it was very troublesome to go back and forth.

Then he became the second outsider to discover there was something wrong with the water.

That evening, after the wooden house was built, he sat at the door and drank cold water happily.

"Daughter-in-law Lin Xiao, where does your water come from?"

He's been in the slums for so long, why can't he tell the difference when he drinks? This is definitely not ghetto water.

Jiang Yuan secretly thought that if it broke, she should put another barrel of tap water at home.

Although she was anxious, she had a smile on her face and showed off their tank without blinking an eye.

The water is what comes from the tap, but once it passes through their tank, it becomes different.

Anyway, in the eyes of outsiders, her brain is not normal, and any nonsense she says is normal.

How can Brother Zhang believe this?

But Jiang Yuan's happy expression didn't look fake at all.

Therefore, Brother Zhang could only think that this might be Lin Xiao's secret, and the so-called vat was just Lin Xiao's way of deceiving his little wife.

The Lin family has some status in the safe zone. Maybe Lin Xiao has a way to make the tap water taste better.

So I didn’t ask any more questions.

Jiang Yuan thinks that Brother Zhang is a very nice person and he is a craftsman. He will definitely have frequent contacts with him in the future.

For such a person, Jiang Yuan thinks there is no harm in making friends, and isn't his son in a safe zone?

Maybe he can still cooperate with his son in business.

However, Jiang Yuan has no specific plans yet, but there is nothing wrong with forming good relationships for herself.

So she was very polite and kind when facing Brother Zhang.

And Brother Zhang is also thinking that he has taken a lot of advantage here in the past two days, and he will have to return the favor later.

Seeing that the little girl looked sloppy and lacked daily necessities, I decided to ask my son to help him get something for the little girl.

That night, the two of them were not idle, and immediately moved in the soil they had dug out in the past two days. Lin Xiao used the remaining wood to build an indoor vegetable shed, and opened an opening in the curtain wall of their small home. Both sides are connected, making it easy to keep an eye on.

There is no door in the whole shed. The only entrance and exit is from the small house, which is safe enough.

By the time all the work was done, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, but everyone was very happy when they saw the little seedlings inserted.

Because in just these two days, the cabbage and lettuce that Jiang Yuan planted before have all grown and become edible.

So it can be seen that growing vegetables is completely advisable and they will only have more and more food in the future.

What’s even more surprising is that the longer the plant grows, the higher its purification ability will be.

One of the shepherd's purses that was planted earlier was eaten, and the other one that had been buried in the soil had changed from blue to green, and it had collapsed again.

It's just a pity that the shepherd's purse has already grown, and it will get old if left uneaten. Although the radiation is low, the taste is not good.

So I couldn't wait forever, so I had to pull it out and eat it first.

So Jiang Yuan decided to either plant seedlings or sow seeds for seasonal vegetables in the future.

It's like corn and potatoes, which have been cultivated for a long time, but unfortunately these foods have never been seen in the forest.

"There are some for sale in the safe zone. When we come back from the wild hunting, we can entrust the hunting team to buy them."

Lin Xiao said that there was no shortage of seeds and they were cheap, but the radiation outside the slums was too strong, making it impossible to plant them.

"Then I have to think about what I want."

Jiang Yuan silently memorized a list to develop her planting business.

And because they were building a hut, they had not been able to find food for several days.

Early the next morning, even though Jiang Yuan felt a little tired from sleeping late last night, she still struggled to get up.

Lin Xiao asked her to rest at home, but if she really didn't persevere now, she would definitely despise her laziness in the afternoon and be in bad spirits all day long. Instead of doing this, she might as well be more diligent.

And there is no need to go too far. Their primary goal now is to work hard to gather seedlings and fill the land in the cabin.

So far, there are many varieties in the cabin, and Jiang Yuan has found more than ten varieties.

In addition to vegetables, she also wants to try planting fruit trees and various condiments, such as peppercorns, garlic, onions, ginger, peppers, etc.

Lin Xiao was quite familiar with the area nearby and took her to dig out a lot of pepper, onion, ginger and garlic seedlings. However, it was hard to find pepper trees, and there were also fruit trees, which seemed to have never been seen in the area where they were.
