Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system

We lined up and left the base, driving along the wide road heading due west.

They didn't stop at the grapefruit forest because the best time for picking grapefruits had passed. The grapefruits here had already been tested by countless people. Did they still want to take advantage of the opportunity to pick up some? The chances of winning were extremely low.

"Let's go to the autumn jujube forest farther away. There is a group of bees surrounding there all year round, and people in the base don't dare to go there easily." There are protective clothing and bamboo protective gear in their space. They can put on one layer and go in to feel around.

As for the baby in your arms, you can temporarily put it in the car or hang it close to your body, so that the child will not suffer.

Cheng Qi did not refute this, but silently stepped on the accelerator to increase speed.

The roar of the car was louder than that of other vehicles. As they drove along, it unsurprisingly attracted the attention of people around them.

However, situations like this were too common in Base No. 25. Many people took a look and then looked away. Compared to these scenes of not being able to eat or drink, they were more concerned about today's collection results.

There is only half a month left, and ordinary people in the slums are trying their best to save more money. Whether it is to successfully move into the outer area of ​​the base or to buy an electric heater or electric blanket, it can increase their chances of surviving the cold season.

Day after day, year after year.

Most ordinary people are struggling and persevering. Perhaps their lives are not worth paying attention to, and their destinies are not worth singing praises to, but the greatness of life lies in the uniqueness of each person. Who can dominate whose destiny?

After driving for about half an hour, there were fewer and fewer people and vehicles around us.

Not until the jujube trees with red and green autumn jujubes hanging on them appeared in their sight, the car under them slowly stopped and the family got out.

There is no place to park around because there are date trees everywhere.

The jujube trees here are very tall and have relatively few leaves, but the red and green autumn jujubes hang all over the branches, bending the trunks down.

A few figures can be seen here and there, wearing various kinds of sealing clothes collecting autumn jujubes under the surrounding jujube trees. Occasionally, they wave their arms as if dancing, but in fact they are swatting the disturbing bees.

The two first put on the protective clothing they had taken out in advance. Manman was handed over to Cheng Qi for full responsibility, while Shen Yao mainly took care of herself.

"Don't walk too far. Look at the information on your watch. The further you go, the more bees there are. And the bees are no longer producing honey at this time of year."

On the contrary, they treat this place as their home and attack any creature that comes here unscrupulously. No matter whether it is a human or an animal, they cannot escape the fate of being stung by the bees.

However, in the mild season after the cold season, this place will become a treasure land for picking that everyone in the base is willing to come to.

At that time, the jujube trees are in bloom and bees are collecting nectar. Many huge beehives filled with honey will appear here. As long as you can cut down some and bring them back to the base, you can exchange them for a lot of points and very delicious honey.

Although Shen Yao's space stored a lot of honey, the jujube honey here was different from the mixed honey, and the taste alone was very different.

I heard from Mrs. Qian that the jujube honey brewed from the mutated jujube flowers is very effective for those with genetic awakening.

Even bloody incidents occur here every year. Mercenaries from the base, no matter how big or small, will come here at the same time to pick honey, even if they get stung on their heads.

"I will come again next year when the mild season comes," Shen Yao muttered softly, carefully wrapped her headgear, and walked along the path into the jujube forest in front of her with Cheng Qi.

After entering, all you can see are autumn jujubes. The slender and oval autumn jujubes have mutated to the size of a thumb, and they are hanging heavy and black on the branches.

Because the shipment rate of the autumn dates after the mutation is low, even though there are many autumn dates here, only a few people actually come here to pick them.

There is no other reason, it is just not cost-effective. We have to take into account the purchase price of the base and the cost of treatment if we are accidentally stung or attacked.

Shen Yao and Cheng Qi have space, so when picking, they basically put one outside and put two or three into the space.

And because Shen Yao can ask the system to help with cheat detection, although the speed is not as fast as Cheng Qi's genetic awakening, the quality is far superior, and basically every one of them is a medium to low mutated autumn jujube.

They plan to take the samples home for testing. Although this is troublesome, they will be able to pick more samples.

Relying solely on the current points, after storing the rice, flour, grain and oil for the cold season, it would be a bit stretched, after all, the cold season is gradually getting longer.

Furthermore, they also have to take into account the fact that the food consumption of those who have been genetically awakened is far beyond that of ordinary people. They cannot really follow the minimum standard of the base. As a result, after staying for five months, their faces are still rosy and shiny, and their bodies are strong and healthy without any injuries. It is visibly exposed!

brush brush --

Shen Yao guarded the green dates and slapped a palm-sized insect to the ground.

This is a common type of insect on jujube trees. It has a lot of hairs on its body that can cause redness, swelling and pain on the skin. It has a bad temper and is quite aggressive.

The protective suit Shen Yao was wearing was silver-white and did not fit her body curves completely, which resulted in the sides of her legs being crawling with such bugs. Even shaking them off to the ground did not reduce the number of bugs much.

Shen Yao:......

Shen Yao frowned and sighed, but there was nothing she could do. She couldn't step on these bugs to death because the smell of the bugs' bodies would make them attack people around them like crazy. The original tickling turned into a slap, and Shen Yao was not idle.

Shen Yao bypassed the gathering place of insects in front of him and found a new location to continue working.

The plump autumn dates were put into the backpack and space. Shen Yao was busy until a timid voice came from beside her.

Ok?

Looking sideways, I saw a person wearing strange clothes, who could be roughly judged to be a woman.

The other person stood in front of her with a somewhat uneasiness (probably uneasiness, because he was covered completely and you couldn't really see any facial expression).

"Is there something wrong?" Shen Yao asked, her hands moving non-stop, continuing to pick autumn dates and put them into the backpack, but her attention was distracted by the people around her, so the autumn dates she picked were no longer of medium or low degree mutation, but occasionally mixed with a few highly mutated ones, which she had to pick out later.

"I just want to ask you, do you still want these green caterpillars?"

Green caterpillar? Shen Yao looked down as the other party moved, and only saw those palm-sized insects (it turns out that insects have scientific names. She remembered that the common name of this insect is widely spread, and modern people call it foreign pepper).

"No, if you want to take it, be careful." The mutated green moth can survive and withstand attacks, and is a well-known bully in the date forest.

Compared with them, the bees flying around and buzzing are not annoying at all.

Green moths with medium and low mutations can be eaten, and are even a good thing with high protein content. However, you need to clean the hair on their bodies before eating them, and the risk of being stung is even higher than that of bees.

The people who came to ask questions obviously didn't expect Shen Yao to be so easy to talk to. You know, not everyone came for the autumn dates with a low sales rate, but more of them came for the green spiny moth that can supplement protein.

There is no difference between insect meat and other meat, and they can both fill your stomach.

After thanking Shen Yao again and again, the man carefully opened the bag he brought with him, and after opening it, he did not forget to put all the green moths on the ground into it and tie it up.

The pockets are filled with these kinds of bugs, which makes people's scalp tingle.

Shen Yao couldn't help but walk forward a distance subconsciously, to leave some space for the people behind her.

Well, this made the other party feel even more grateful. While working, he kept chattering about the things in the date forest, including which autumn dates had a high shipment rate and which autumn dates tasted the sweetest and best.

Shen Yao: ...That's not necessary.

Shen Yao's actions were only to conceal her tracks. In fact, the supplies in their space were enough to survive the coming cold season.

In a few days, Cheng Qi will go out on a mission with the Qian family mercenary team, and in most cases they will get some meat.

By then, combined with the points they earn from sales, they can choose any of the supplies in the redemption center.

I had already set my eyes on several large items and was just waiting to sell them.

Shen Yao sorted out the few autumn dates she had picked. The beautiful red color covered large areas of the dates, like red agate in modern society.

Bah, bah, bah—

The autumn dates were piled up in a backpack, and Shen Yao could pick them as much as she wanted during the low and medium mutations. It was as if there was a barrier around her that no one could break.

Until noon, the two adults could get by with nutritional supplements, but Manman couldn't. The child needed more careful and patient care.

The two had no choice but to stop picking and turn back to the car parked outside the date forest.

He took off the protective suit directly and cleaned up the various traces (mainly insects) stuck on it.

Taking advantage of the car's cover, Shen Yao took out the lunch that had been stored in the space earlier, and the family of three each held their bowls and chopsticks and started to eat.

After eating and drinking, she felt very sleepy after lying on Cheng Qi's chest for half a day. She yawned, tilted her head, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Shen Yao and Cheng Qi took a short nap using the shade provided by the car. As for the autumn jujubes they had picked, they put them all in the trunk and locked them for storage.

"I'll continue picking some in the afternoon. I'll go home early today so I can go to the exchange center to exchange for some staple food."

The main food crops of Base No. 25 are also rice, white flour, corn, sweet potatoes, etc. The difference between Base No. 25 and Base Shuguang is probably that Base No. is a large base and there is no limit on corresponding purchases.

Here, as long as you have money, you can buy as much as you want. No one will ask questions, and there will be no monthly limit. This is because Base No. 25 is surrounded by high-yield rice and wheat areas. Not only is the base not short of food, but ordinary people who are diligent are not short of food either.

This also resulted in the main grain products of Base No. 25 being unable to be sold at a high price. Even in the mild season, the main grain products were so cheap that they could be sold at a discount.

Cheng Qi has been buying food from the exchange center continuously these days.

Like normal rice and flour, some brown rice and grains, and even other crops, as long as the redemption center sells them, Cheng Qi will spend his points to buy a large truckload of them and bring them back to store at home.

Now the storage room at home is full and is expanding into the grocery room.

As for the items that were originally placed in the grocery room, they were moved to the more spacious studio.

Cheng Qi and Shen Yao also have the idea of ​​building a simple shed in the yard, but they will just have to wait until the mild season next year to make more space to store things.

"If the redemption center sells nutritional supplements, buy some and keep them secretly."

The food in the space cannot go bad, and the nutrients in Base 25 are much stronger than those in Base Dawn. Not only are the raw materials excellent, but the nutritional ratio is also excellent.

It is something you have to eat at the Dawn Base, and it is a rare delicacy here.

Cheng Qi nodded, then opened the car door and left.

Not long after Cheng Qi left, Manman woke up. Shen Yao put on her protective suit again and took Manman with her to join in the fun of picking dates.

The afternoon was shorter than the morning. The two men picked about two sacks and left in a hurry.

After rushing for more than half an hour, they returned to the base. Shen Yao sent Manman back to the crib to coax her to sleep. She and Cheng Qi each carried a stool and sat at the door to check the sacks of autumn dates they brought back.

Cheng Qi was surprised, "The shipment volume of autumn jujube is very high."

Basically, one out of every two or three has a low or medium degree mutation, while for the others, only one out of eight or ten has a mutation. It's really incredible.

Shen Yao made up an excuse casually, "Maybe it's because I found a good place and not many people go there."

Cheng Qi nodded and said nothing more. It was unclear whether he believed this explanation or not.

Soon, the two men found a sack of edible autumn dates. Cheng Qi stood up and shook it, intending to send it to the exchange center for purchase and then exchange it for staple food to bring back.

Shen Yao waved her hand, signaling Cheng Qi to go quickly and come back soon. If there were any other gadgets in the redemption center, he could buy them back as long as it didn't waste too many points.

Cheng Qi shook his head helplessly, thinking that if the things in the redemption center were not practical, they would not be displayed at all. It is not some private store that only sells flashy things.

In essence, Base No. 25 and Dawn Base are very diligent and responsible in some basic daily maintenance. The redemption centers are mostly aimed at ordinary people in the base, so the items sold are also considered for the majority rather than a very special small number.

Cheng Qi drove away, and Shen Yao turned around and asked the system to cheat for her.

It would be too tiring to check each one manually, so she could just start it with one button. The system just happened to have this capability, and she could save some energy to do other things.

system:……

What can the system do? It dares not resist, because it is in the wrong.

He finished the task in a few seconds with a feeling of grievance, and then the system turned around and disappeared.

Shen Yao didn't care about the system's childish behavior. She sent the edible autumn dates into the utility room, and put the inedible ones in bags and stood them outside to be processed.

As for how to deal with it? Just take it out of the city and dump it anywhere. If the environment of the selected place is suitable, it may sprout and grow small jujube trees next year, and a new jujube forest will be formed inside.

Otherwise, why is the area of ​​the jujube forest they collected today so large? They all grew up little by little like this, and there are even traces of artificial planting.

Two more days passed like this, picking dates and selling points to buy supplies.

It was not until Cheng Qi received the news from the money house and drove to the Qian family mercenary team early in the morning that Shen Yao and her daughter could take a temporary rest.
