Apocalyptic Tundra Age

As soon as the rumors came out, Xu's old house seemed to be intimidated, and it was silent for a few days. Thinking of the situation outside, the tasteless rice suddenly became fragrant. Those who planned to plant several acres of rice were honest Really peeled potatoes.

As for the source of the potato seeds, Xu Zhonglei really hated iron but not steel, and they all came from Xu Zhiping.

People in the village used to have the habit of "buying whatever seeds they want from Xu Zhiping".

Xu Zhiping, who grows greenhouses, buys a lot at a time, and the price he gets is much cheaper than that of villagers who buy alone.He is righteous and doesn't bother to do small tricks. The seeds he sells to the villagers are of good quality and the price is fair.As a result, after a few years, except for Xu Zhiping, no one kept any seeds, and went to other people's greenhouses to see what they wanted.

Now that the catastrophe is coming, those in the village who want to cultivate land, especially Xu Chonghuai's family, wonder, how can they do without seeds?He even directly took out the RMB dug up from the ruins to find Xu Zhiping to buy potato seeds, and the price was still planned to be [-] cents per plant before the catastrophe.

Zeng Cheng came to Xu Zhonglei's house to learn the tongue, his voice was high-pitched, his tone was yin and yang, and he learned it so vividly.Even Xu Zhonglei laughed angrily.

"We old farmers originally wanted to keep the seeds. If it weren't for you, Xu Zhiping, wouldn't our family have any seeds?"

"It's not that you don't give money. It costs [-] cents a plant. How many years have you been selling it?"

"If you want to increase the price, you Xu Zhiping's wings are hardened, and you will make the country lose money!"

"If it were me, I would have to drive that old thing out." Xu Zhonglei scolded, "What happened next?"

Zeng Cheng spread his hands, "Then? Then they all shared the potato seeds! Xu Chongda's spittle stared at my face, and he called a bunch of people around, saying that if he didn't give them to them, he would go into the tent and share the potatoes." In the end, Big Brother Dai Sheng took the dung ladle and buckled them one by one, and they all ran away without talking nonsense."

Xu Zhonglei: "Isn't that kicking people out? Why are they divided into families?"

"Brother Zhiping is a very good person. He prepared more potatoes in the morning, and then distributed them after they were ready to grow seedlings. But they couldn't wait, and made such a fuss. When Brother Zhiping got angry, the troublemakers just separated. One-third of the original, ten yuan per seedling, do you want it! The rest is ready to grow by yourself." Zeng Cheng was still very angry when he talked about Xu Zhiping's solution. In his opinion, such a punishment is simply It was of no use.

Xu Zhonglei: "Brother Zhiping... Sigh!"

Xu Zhiping rushed to become the powerful village head of Xu's old house, and Xu Zhonglei also understood.There is a disabled wife and a young daughter in his family. If he has no power, he will be bullied to death by villains.But once he becomes the head of the village with real power, all kinds of troubles will happen.

The people in the village have no sense of crisis at all, and their hearts are not in harmony.There are those who bully others in groups, those who are too lazy to lie on the bed all day, those who look on coldly but jump out whenever something happens, and are disgusting... before the earthquake, such people can at least pull more than 100 WeChat discussion groups.Xu Zhiping had to look at it, and also worried that the poor food in the village would come to trouble him.

Xu Zhonglei's replacement of Xu Zhiping's position is simply a headache.

"Forget it, the potatoes are his..." Xu Zhonglei could only think so.

Don't make fun of spring seeds. When the temperature rises, Xu Zhonglei has to plant vegetables quickly.

The vegetable seedlings had been prepared a long time ago. It took Xu Zhonglei and Cheng Yuming a day to move the cabbage seedlings from the seedling shed to the vegetable garden outside. They were so lush and green that they felt safe.

Taking advantage of the leisure time after planting cabbage, Xu Zhonglei walked a few more times to the back mountain and moved back more than ten fir trees that were crushed by the snowstorm.Even the branches and rotten leaves of the whole mountain were moved to the house one after another, and it was a crime to put them outside and wait for them to rot!

They used the remaining alloy wall blocks of the plank house to build a firewood house. The firewood on the mountain had to be dried in the small square before being stored in the firewood house. A house full of firewood, plus more than a dozen catties of wild mushrooms were picked, spread out on the small square, and it smelled like a scent of earth.

When Xu Zhonglei was a child, he liked to go to the mountains to play, especially with his grandmother up the mountain to cut firewood. The grandmother swung a machete to cut down the branches of the trees. Xu Zhonglei squatted at the foot of the big tree to look for mushrooms. In spring, there was often a little rain, and the mushrooms on the mountain would grow up after the rain. When they grow up, Xu Zhonglei throws them into the big firewood basket regardless of whether they are poisonous or not. After returning home, grandma has to pick out the poisonous mushrooms inside and put them on a small wooden board, waiting for the sun to dry these good mushrooms. Dry, these mushrooms have finally become a side dish of fried meat and the secret of adding freshness to the soup.

"Brother, do you want to eat dried mushrooms?" Cheng Yuming's soul of a chef is burning. Although he deals with mushrooms every day, this kind of original wild mushrooms are hard to come by in the city. Cultivated varieties are more fulfilling to do!

"Eat, I'll eat it if you make it." Xu Zhonglei was still drying tea tree mushrooms.

After all, he could only name one tea tree mushroom in this pile of mushrooms, and the others looked familiar and smelled familiar.

"Let me think about it... dry pot..." Cheng Yuming walked away talking about the name of the dish, and Xu Zhonglei couldn't help feeling a lot of anticipation for today's lunch.

With the development of human history for thousands of years, there are only two problems faced, one is boiled in the pot, and the other is boiled under the pot.Xu Zhonglei was busy for several days, consciously solved most of the problems, stretched himself, and went back to the house to drink Coke.

The soul of dry pot lies in eating while cooking. Xu Zhonglei forgot to buy solid alcohol, so this dish lacks soul.

But Cheng Yuming did not relax his cooking requirements because of the lack of materials. After making a large pot of mushroom pot and putting it in the small pot, he turned on the fire again, and the small pot was burning on the stove. The two stood beside the biogas stove , Each person holds a rice bowl and eats around a small pot.

The dry pot pays attention to quick frying with wide oil and coloring with soy sauce. For the green pepper, Cheng Yuming put a lot of large pieces of garlic and fresh garlic leaves, and decorated it with shallots. With the flipping of the chopsticks, even the shallots were covered with the salty, slightly spicy soup.

Xu Zhonglei picked up a chopstick of tea tree mushroom. The undried tea tree mushroom was a bit less chewy, but the taste was slightly moist and delicious in the mouth. With one chopstick, you can eat several lumps of white rice, which makes people want to stop.

"Oh my god, it's so delicious! It's delicious and you can eat it. With this pot of mushrooms, I can eat two more bowls of rice!" Xu Zhonglei praised the deliciousness of this dish without hesitation, and he could blow rainbow farts hundreds of meters away.

"Look, my craftsmanship will sell for millions sooner or later. It's a pity that God is jealous of talents. All the outstanding people are handed over to the country hahahahahahaha." Cheng Yuming listened to his words and began to brag about himself.

Xu Zhonglei probably understands a little about the principle of getting along with two people, that is, even if something made by others is not good, then you must not criticize it, be grateful, thank you, praise, and praise. Things, you must have a b number, so that you can give the other party a positive feedback, so that he is always willing to do these things.

After Xu Zhonglei found his teammates, he has been adhering to this principle. Look, no, it’s just too wonderful to live a life where the chef only needs to wash the dishes without cooking. The chef spends all day thinking about how to improve his cooking skills!

Hearing Cheng Yuming's bragging, he couldn't help but praise his wisdom in his heart. Good teammates are not easy to come by, and it's enough to cultivate them yourself.

***

The vegetable garden in Xu Zhonglei’s family used to be a wasteland on the side of the road. Three generations ago, the ancestors dug it out with hoes. In the center of the vegetable garden, a two-meter-deep low-lying land was deliberately dug out to collect rainwater. Improve the soil quality and water the vegetables by the way.

The snow water melted into a pool in the depression, so Xu Zhonglei didn't have to go to his house to fetch the water, and came over with a bucket to water the ground.

Cabbage is easy to grow. Xu Zhonglei plans to come over to water it every five days, so this morning is the second time. After breakfast, he plans to take advantage of the cloudy weather to do this job quickly.

But today when Xu Zhonglei entered the vegetable garden, he could hear the villagers shouting:

"Xiaoyu-"

"Xu Wangqiang—"

"Xu Le—"

He could think of the toes of his left foot, so there must be another demon moth in the village.

Sure enough, within a few minutes, Xu Chunjuan quickly walked across the ridge, her face covered with sweat.

"Stone!"

"Oh, what's the matter?" Xu Zhonglei was helpless.

"Fan Yu in my room, she took Xu Wangqiang and Xu Le, these three bastards are going to visit the town!" Xu Chunjuan didn't catch her breath, and her mouth began to chatter.

"Don't worry, just go in and talk." Xu Zhonglei pulled people inside.

"Hey, Fan Yu, she lives with me. She doesn't like to go out usually. I had something to eat before, so I just let her go! Didn't I see that there was not much rice left at home the day before yesterday, so I let her Followed me to work with Xu Zhiping, and said a few casual words, but she left by herself!" Xu Chunjuan's words were endless.

"Fan Yu is that 18-year-old girl in your family?" Xu Zhonglei's name didn't match his face. This girl really didn't come out often, and Xu Zhonglei had no impression of her at all.But logically, they have lived together for more than four months, and they would have left long ago if they wanted to be self-willed, why did they move today?It's not enough to say a few words.

"I was also in a hurry the day before yesterday. I told her that she would get married if she didn't do anything. All the men in the village stared at her. As soon as I finished speaking, she cried. After crying, I thought she was fine, no Thinking of being so strong, she wrote on the door panel with black charcoal, "Goodbye, I went to my parents, and I went to town with someone"..." Xu Chunjuan held back her tears, regretting it very much.

"What about the other two?"

"Xu Le and Wang Qiang live together. They have a good relationship, and they have to go with them in everything. This morning, the village chief went to call and found out that both of their buddies have disappeared. There is not a grain of rice left in their house. The pot is still hot! I guess it must have been cooked and taken away, and it was also written on the door that I would go to town to see it."

Xu Zhonglei turned his head a little bit, everyone wants to go to the town?Even the rice is cooked?

That's the rumor he made up to scare the old, the middle-aged, and fucking attract the young!

He couldn't help exhaling like blue: "Damn!"
