Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 396 Daily Wasteland Collection (24)
"I heard that a big snake suddenly attacked the plantation. Are you okay?"
When Cheng Qi ran back home, Shen Yao was processing the rice ears she brought back.
Because she needed the detection needle on the watch, she took off the watch and held it in her hand, so she did not see the message sent by Cheng Qi.
Seeing Cheng Qi sweating profusely due to anxiety, Shen Yao realized it belatedly and scratched her head.
"It's okay, I can run fast and take the bus back directly," Shen Yao explained that she was lucky and even picked more rice ears than others.
Cheng period:......
Cheng Qi walked over to Shen Yao and looked her up and down. He breathed a sigh of relief when he was sure that she was not injured.
"Let's not go to the rice plantation tomorrow. Let's go to another place."
Shen Yao:......
Shen Yao wanted to say that she could continue going because the rice grains this year were full and would be delicious when used to make stewed rice.
But seeing that Cheng Qi was so nervous, forget it, we can go anywhere, it’s not necessary to be neighbors with the big snake.
"A corn or millet or soybean plantation? It would be nice if we could eat some whole grains from time to time."
Shen Yao touched her chin and made room beside her for Cheng Qi to sit down.
Cheng Qi took off his watch and took out the detection needle to help test the rice ears he brought back. "Let's go to the corn plantation. The environment there is simple."
"But how can you bring back rice ears?" And these are complete and untested rice ears.
Shen Yao chuckled, "While the crowd was getting chaotic, I secretly put some into the sack I brought with me.
Everyone was very nervous on the way back, and no one checked when she got off the bus." She carried it back safely.
Shen Yao is not exaggerating. She has space and does not need to do it herself, but others who do not have space all use this method to smuggle rice ears.
Shen Yao saw several people who shared the same interests, and they all tacitly agreed not to expose the truth. After all, they were just taking advantage of the base and there was no conflict of interest between them and her.
After hearing this, Cheng Qi looked helpless, but he didn't say that Shen Yao was wrong.
All she can do is ask her to be more careful in the future and do some tricks to avoid the crowds. "Most of the staff at the base will not deliberately make things difficult for you, but there are inevitably some people who want to do thankless business," so don't get caught when taking things from the base.
After all, the base was not really wholeheartedly for them. At the beginning, the base secretly did a lot of small things, and the relationship between the two sides was once very tense.
Later, the base received guidance from an expert and gradually relaxed some insignificant authority to allow the people below to have more food and ease the overly tense relationship between the two sides.
"Don't worry, they will definitely not be able to find out." If someone could really touch her space, he would be a god. The system was like a device whose energy was about to run out, urging her to take out the things in the space as soon as possible, otherwise Shen Yao would be reluctant to take out all the rice ears.
The two people worked together and quickly finished inspecting the rice ears on the ground.
The inedible ones are piled together and thrown into the wild when the opportunity arises, while the edible ones are put into sacks and sent to the storage room for storage.
Shen Yao straightened her back and turned to make dinner. She was quite tired today, and the constant shock had consumed her energy. She first took out the meat, thawed it and cut it into strips, and then soaked some black fungus for later use.
Cheng Qi came over to help, and the two of them worked in the kitchen, one cooking and the other frying vegetables. They soon brought out the fragrant food.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Shen Yao washed two apples and gave each of them one before going to bed at night. She touched her bulging belly and decided not to control her diet for the time being. She would not gain weight by working intensively every day.
…………
"No. 88, Row , Area "
Shen Yao took the cornfield that was allocated to her and walked inside under the scorching sun.
The area around the cornfield was barren, with nothing in it, even weeds were very few.
Because the mutated corn has become more domineering and likes to steal nutrients from other plants, there is basically no other output around the corn plantation except corn.
"85, 86, 87, 88"
Finally finding the area assigned to her, Shen Yao sat down on the ground and fanned herself with her big hands.
Corn plantations are divided according to the number of corns, basically two rows of corn, with a total of about 20 plants.
There are at least two corn cobs on a corn plant. The limit here is 75 kilograms per person, so Shen Yao can take back 150 kilograms.
However, if Shen Yao does the work quickly and well, she can apply to do more work, and for every extra ten kilograms, she can take one kilogram.
However, those who can earn this money are all strong and healthy people who work all year round. Shen Yao has thin arms and legs, which looks okay when viewed individually, but when put together, she looks thin.
He picked up the machete and chopped the corn cob back and forth, and soon pulled off the corn cob weighing more than ten pounds.
It was the same strategy as yesterday, cutting off all the surrounding corn cobs, and then testing the corn kernels one by one with a detection target.
This workload is tedious and time-consuming, but the steps are essential.
Dididi
The watch kept making different noises. Shen Yao took advantage of the opportunity to conceal her presence and cheat on the system to pick out the edible corn kernels.
Of course, the space must be used by her, even though the system is afraid of doing so.
"What are you afraid of? Can it die with you?" At most it will cause some minor troubles, which can be solved by just admitting defeat.
system:……
"The host is too cruel," a resentful tone floated out from the mechanical voice, scaring Shen Yao so much that she shivered and dropped the highly mutated corn kernels to the ground.
"If I am not ruthless, I will be tricked to death by you. I will seal the space when I return. It will only take a short while. The consciousness of the Heavenly Dao will not find out."
It is unknown how long the Heavenly Dao Consciousness has existed, and its perception of time is even duller than that of ordinary humans.
Shen Yao quickly gathered the corn around her, carried it back at noon, sat by the field to eat the lunch she had prepared, and then returned to the field to work in the afternoon.
Without deliberately speeding up, Shen Yao maintained a regular pace and handed in his tasks on time. After meeting the requirements, he got in the car and had a rest, looking relaxed and at ease.
When they got home in the evening, the two of them worked overtime again. Cheng Qi admired Shen Yao's way of bringing things back, and mentioned that they could take a car to the plantation together during the two-day vacation.
Shen Yao:......
"Maybe we can move to another place and rent a car to collect other food."
Wouldn't it be a bummer if Cheng Qi went to the plantation? Shen Yao didn't want to expose the buggy space, and there was a limit on the number of times they could go to the plantation. It was more cost-effective for the couple to go to the plantation to work for the base instead of going to the wild to work for themselves.
When Cheng Qi heard this, he immediately used his watch to apply for the next car rental.
There are never enough cars for the patrol team, and even if you apply, you have to wait in line for several days.
Cheng Qi thought about how it was really worthwhile for them to go to the pond to catch fish and dig lotus roots.
"If we call my parents, there will be more of us, and we can go to a farther place and gain more."
Of course, the risk will increase, but who wants to eat nutritional supplements and dried meat and vegetables for every meal? The more variety of food you store now, the more comfortable you will be when lying down in the cold season.
The young couple got together to discuss where they wanted to go. They could consider the east, south, west, and north of the base, and then list out some good collection points, and finally eliminate them.
"If the car rental time can be extended, we can go to the wild slopes in the east, where we can hunt wild goats and wild deer. They are not very aggressive and are medium to large beasts," and there is no need to worry too much about the quality of the meat.
Hearing this, Shen Yao scratched his head and pointed to a piece of plain land behind the wild slope, "Is there a coal mine here?"
Cheng Qi took a look and said, "Yes, do you want to dig some back?"
Shen Yao hummed, "There should be some coal slag left around the abandoned coal mines. The temperature in the cold season is too low. Let's see if we can use it."
If they can't use it, they just wasted some time. If they can use it, they will save a lot of points. A lot of firewood and coal are needed in the cold season. The base will sell some of them, but not in large quantities to ensure that they won't freeze to death. They also need to go to private shops or the black market to buy them.
Prices in private shops or on the black market are always fluctuating, and some seasonal items are unimaginably expensive.
Shen Yao and Cheng Qi have already booked a house in Area B, and they will be a little short of funds for the next period of time.
So try to save as much as possible. Shen Yao held up her chin and planned to take advantage of the time when she rented the car to cut down a few more trees and bring them back to dry for firewood. In short, she must use the tools at hand to the fullest extent.
Seeing that Shen Yao's analysis was very logical, Cheng Qi also expressed his support for her.
"Go back and rest. You have to get up early tomorrow."
"..."
Shen Yao ran around the plantation for several days until the storage room at home was filled with food, and Cheng Qi's vacation and car rental applications were approved.
Before it was approved, Cheng Qi contacted people from the Shen family and the Cheng family.
We share the good times and the bad times. We are all relatives, so it's only right for us to lend a hand.
When he saw his biological mother Song Ling again, he couldn't help but hear Song Ling praising Cheng Qi for his abilities.
The previous tricycle has been returned, and Shen Jiancheng has successfully hired a staff member for the base. He will go to work as soon as this busy period is over.
The Shen family has been doing very well during this period, except for the long-standing problem of Shen Yu, who has no partner.
"Sister, what do you think?" When people get older, they like to act as matchmakers for others. Mother Cheng thinks that the Shen family is a good relative and wants to take the next step.
"I don't have any ideas. As long as the two children are suitable, his father and I are not picky."
Song Ling was not lying. It seemed as if Shen Yu had no interest in girls of any type.
Before going out with the mercenary team, Song Ling asked the neighbors to keep an eye on him, and when Shen Yu came back, she would hurriedly push him to go on a blind date.
The result was that not only did he fail to achieve anything, but he also offended several neighbors.
It's not that there's a problem between the two of them, it's just that they just can't get along together.
Because of this, Song Ling was so angry that she scolded Shen Yu for many days, and the anger in her heart has just subsided.
Holding Cheng's mother's hand, Song Ling couldn't help but complain. She hoped that Cheng's mother could help her. She didn't ask for anything about her family background, appearance or personality, she just hoped that the two of them could show some signs of success, otherwise she would suspect her son's sexual orientation.
Shen Yao:......
Shen Yao quickly interrupted her mother's increasingly exaggerated remarks, and seriously said that Shen Yu had not met the right person yet. Besides, there were many girls of the right age in the base. Just take it slow, and things will get better.
Song Ling: …
Song Ling also knew that she had to take it slow, but she just couldn't help getting anxious, especially since the neighbors around her were all couples and had children, but they were still alone at home, and they had no motivation to work after work every day.
After hearing this, Shen Yao wanted to roll her eyes, thinking that her own mother was really looking for trouble for her.
It doesn't necessarily mean that a married couple will live a happy life. The more anxious they are, the easier it is to make mistakes. The best approach is to take things slow.
Cheng's mother obviously understood Song Ling's anxiety. When Cheng Qi was single, she was in this state and couldn't control herself.
When it comes to persuading Song Ling, Cheng's mother is adept at it, and she takes examples from her family and the neighbors around to prove the point that "this matter cannot be rushed".
"I do have a few good girls here. I'll send them to you first. Then let Xiaoyu get in touch with them. If they are suitable, then chat. If not, then don't touch them."
Mother Cheng used her watch to push the information to Song Ling, and then mentioned the supplies stored at home.
Both of them are experienced veterans in life, and they chatted from pickles to staple foods until the car they were in stopped and they stopped talking.
When we got off the car, we saw a dense forest. It was far from the base and it took an hour to drive there.
"Is this a wild slope? The last time I came here, I took the base bus. It took two hours to drive here, and it made my bones ache."
Song Ling and Cheng Ma walked side by side, talking about their memories of Yepo.
Shen Yao had a vague impression of this place, but since it had been a long time, she remembered that there were many kinds of wild mushrooms and medicinal herbs here, and just picking them would earn enough for a trip.
"Let's move on and find a place to stay first, then we can talk about hunting."
They came here to catch medium to large wild animals such as wild goats or wild deer. A complete carcass can be worth a lot of points.
If the captured wild animals are edible, the journey will be more worthwhile.
The group moved forward, bypassing the woods and arriving at a cleared flat area.
There are traces of fire on the ground, which means someone must have taken a short rest here.
"Right here, put your stuff down and we'll see which direction to go."
Father Cheng was not here this time, but Brother Cheng was. He had a lot of experience traveling and was familiar with the situation on Yepo. He used his watch to send out several topographic maps of the surrounding area. Brother Cheng marked with red circles the places where medium and large wild animals were seen.
"These are all recorded situations. We can choose those who are close to here, and form a group of three or two. If there is any movement, we can notify each other."
Brother Cheng also completed the grouping. He took his wife Zhao Xue and Cheng's mother, Shen Yu, Shen Jiancheng and Song Ling into one group, and Cheng Qi and Shen Yao into another group.
Three teams in three directions all chose areas with denser red circles.
Shen Yao was carrying a crossbow and a dagger, and there was a machete in the basket behind him, which truly demonstrated what it means for a poor student to have many toys.
Cheng Qi only brought the weapons he used in the patrol team. He walked quickly and neatly, which made Shen Yao jealous.
"Let me help you get it?" Cheng Qi was helpless. He wanted to help his wife share the pressure, but his wife was unwilling.
"No, these are self-defense tools." Although they are a bit heavy, she didn't want to give them away because they would provide an extra protection when encountering danger.
Cheng period:......
"There is no danger here," any danger would have been dealt with by the patrol team.
As long as the collection point can be reached by the base bus, it is considered a safe place, and the base must always ensure a normal population size.
