173 Different Thoughts

The bean pods and stalks have almost no moisture and are very dry. If you tap them lightly with a wooden stick, the beans will fall "rustling" onto the white tiles below.

The uncles in the front used tools to tap the beans in the pods, while the aunties and young wives sitting on small stools in the back began to check the beans left in the pods.

Occasionally they would put a bean in their mouths, and with a crunch, the bean was so hard that it almost broke their teeth.

Everyone's face was filled with satisfaction and joy.

Someone was patting the bean pods on the straw, listening to the rustling sound of the beans falling, and shouting, "Wow! The soybeans are so tender and so many! How many kilograms per mu can we expect?"

Someone followed suit and said, "It must weigh more than 500 kilograms!"

Someone else leaned over and whispered, "Didn't the guy in logistics say that this is a job for others at the base, and they only pay you a few kilograms of beans if you peel them?"

"How many pounds? I have to peel a hundred pounds and they only give me one pound!"

"Oh, this is too little..."

The person who said less was interrupted by the elbow of the person next to him before he could finish his words. In short, everyone was sighing that it was not easy to get food.

Food is precious nowadays and no one dares to waste it easily, especially the women who are checking the bean pods. They would rather quietly put a handful into their pockets than leave a single soybean in the pods.

The logistics soldier who was supervising nearby was quite satisfied with the scene.

If the water is clear, there will be no fish.

Nowadays, as long as they don't waste food, they can pretend not to see these little actions.

The women picking bean pods basically sat in one place, with their hands and mouths busy.

Everyone was discussing Lu Bei'er who came to the base last night and E Jiang Bai, whom they didn't know.

Although the base did not specify where these beans came from, everyone guessed that they must have brought them.

Because this group of people haven't done any tasks that could earn them full work points for two days.

Previously, snow sweeping, cleaning, and firewood chopping were basically jobs for young and strong men, and there was nothing much for the women here to do.

If not for the easy job of shelling beans, they would still be worrying about food rations.

No one wants to go hungry for the rest of their lives. They have experienced hunger when they were young, and now they have to go through it again at such an old age.

They really can't stand it.

The group picking bean pods happened to be grouped together by Grandma Li and Old Lady Tian.

In fact, they were not in a group, but the venue was so small and they were all picking bean pods, so in the end they all got together, chatting with others while working.

Although the two old ladies were separated, neither of them paid any attention to each other and were talking to the people next to them.

They were all talking about Lu Bei'er and the handsome man who entered the base last night.

Someone asked: "With so much snow, the mountain must be closed, how did they get to the base?"

Some people also asked, "How come these two guys are so amazing that they brought all these soybeans with them? They were all grown by the woman herself."

The 'woman' this person was referring to was naturally Lu Bei'er, because she heard from others that she seemed to be a wood-type mutant.

"They have space and wood-related abilities, so isn't it normal for them to grow beans on this kind of land?" The person who spoke was Aunt Wang, Wang Lanhua's aunt, who had just come over to eavesdrop.

Wang Lanhua also moved the stool with her little baby to the front of the group of people.

Originally, the aunt and nephew were in a group nearby, but now they dragged their bean stalks into this gossip circle.

They are all from the same village, so even if they roll their eyes, they still make room for each other's small benches.

Wang Lanhua smiled and called these aunts and grandmas one by one, then squeezed in and started talking to them.

Originally, several people inside didn't get along with each other, but as they talked, they all started to respond to each other.

At some point, the topic turned to the fact that Lu Bei'er lived in their Sanao Village, and that she might have planted a lot of food in the fields before the snow fell.

At this time, someone came to his senses and slapped his thigh, "Oh, the rice I planted in my field was all late rice! I don't know if that little girl took it away!"

"That... I don't know! The land must be cleaned up before soybeans can be planted! This girl is really amazing. Not only can she come and go freely from our village to this base, but she can also plant crops! I wonder if she can bring some clothes for my little treasure! My little treasure's thick cotton-padded clothes for winter are all new and are still in the closet at home!"

After Wang Lanhua said this, everyone immediately had an idea. There were still many things hidden in their home that they urgently needed!

A broken home is worth a fortune!

They are useless here, as others may have already searched their house thoroughly!

The more I think about it, the more uncomfortable I feel!

Seeing that everyone's minds were aroused, Wang Lanhua, who was standing next to them, stopped talking and silently lowered her head to start picking bean pods.

They were discussing Lu Bei'er here, while Lu Bei'er and Jiang Bai were following Mr. Zhao and Professor Zhang to their laboratory.

As soon as the two came out of the warehouse, they were met by two old men who were waiting outside, and then they were taken into the innermost laboratory of the base.

In the cultivation room in the laboratory.

The flowers' descendants are climbing on the incubator.

As soon as Lu Bei'er entered, the flowers all slipped out from under her hood to see their offspring.

Two rows of cultivation boxes are filled with morning glories and honeysuckle.

Lu Beier took a quick look and found that most of them were ordinary mutations, just a little taller than ordinary morning glories and honeysuckle, but there were actually a few of them that had gained consciousness after mutation.

These few conscious ones seem to be constantly reproducing asexually there.

The honeysuckle flowers continued to bloom, produce nectar, and then set fruit. The nectar was stored in a glass jar next to it without a drop leaking out.

The same goes for morning glory, it blooms and bears fruit, repeating the same cycle over and over again.

They are so efficient and continuously create what humans need!

Here, the honeysuckle and morning glory were so obedient and conscious that Lu Beier was really a little surprised.
