Cats grow fields in the apocalyptic wasteland

It didn't rain much in April, and the sun was fierce.

The water poured in the morning evaporated after a morning, and the land was bleached by the sun, and the leaves of the more fragile plants such as eggplant leaves and peppers in the ground were wilted by the sun.

Xia Lunong was worried that the crops would be sunburned, so now the watering time has been changed to twice in the morning and one evening.

Liao Cheng has experience, and when he saw this situation, he told him that he could put some water in the field, and the land would not dry up so quickly.

Xia Lunong originally thought of this method, but was worried that the plants would be killed by waterlogging.

Hearing what Liao Cheng said, he felt more at ease, and planned to go back and pour some water into the ditch to try.

After Liao Cheng finished speaking, he said another thing, "Lao Liu got a few bags of peanuts, the quality is good, and he said they can be used as seeds. Don't you still have half of the field empty to plant anything? Don't you plant some peanuts?"

Xia Lunong had never considered planting peanuts at all before, he scratched his head and asked, "Plant for eating?"

Neither he nor his brother like peanuts very much.

"Grow it to extract oil." Liao Cheng shook his head, "How much can you eat? Aren't you planning to cook at home? How do you cook without some oil?"

Xia Lunong really forgot about this question.

Lard is used for cooking recently, and there is still enough lard, which can be used for ten days and a half a month.

I'm afraid I have to go to the market to change it after I run out.

He recalled that no one seemed to change the oil in the market.

At this moment, Liao Cheng reminded him that he realized the seriousness of the matter, "I really forgot about it, I'll go back and discuss it with my brother."

"Then you have to hurry up. Old Liu doesn't have many peanuts. If you hesitate for a while, all his peanuts have been exchanged. You can't exchange them even if you want."

Xia Lunong quickly agreed.

When he went home and told his brother, his brother had no objection and told him to change it if he wanted, but it might be tiring to grow a piece of peanut.

"I just planted two or three cents of the field, just for exercise." Xia Lunong said while thinking about the supplies at home, "Brother, what should I use to change the seeds?"

Their family doesn't have much supplies now, and the most attractive thing is the sausage and bacon hanging outside.

It is estimated that the only way to change it is to use this one, but I don't know how to change it.

Xia Huoqu thought for a while, "Exchange it with the meal ticket. If you don't go to the cafeteria to eat, it's useless to keep the meal ticket. It's just a good time to exchange some seeds."

"Then let me ask Brother Liu how many meal tickets can be exchanged for a catty of seeds."

"Take your old brother's meal ticket together, and he won't need his meal ticket anymore."

When Xia Lunong went to look for Lao Liu with the meal ticket, Lao Liu showed him the seeds in his hand, "There are only four catties left, and you have to give it all to you."

Xia Lunong smiled, "Let me see."

"Look, they are all good seeds." Old Liu was smoking a cigarette, "It took me a lot of effort to get these seeds. If I miss this batch, I guess there will be none this year."

Xia Lunong smiled and looked down at the seeds.

The seeds are placed in the basket with only a shallow layer.

The skin of the peanuts is pink, almost every peanut is as big as a finger, plump and beautiful.

When I smell it again, except for the very light raw peanut smell, there is no other peculiar smell, and it smells very fresh.

He grabbed it lightly with his hand, and his hand was heavy.

Really good seeds.

Old Liu saw the satisfaction in his eyes, and said with some pride: "Is this kind of seed okay? If you take care of it properly after planting, you will have a good harvest in autumn."

Without much hesitation, Xia Lunong took out the meal tickets and gave them to him, "Then I'll take them all. Brother Liu, I'll exchange the meal tickets. You can see how many meal tickets you can exchange for a catty."

These meal tickets are basic packages.

Lao Liu took it over and held it in front of his eyes for a closer look, and after making sure there was no problem, there was a smile in his eyes.

He looked up at Xia Lunong, and smiled, "With our friendship, if you want, I'll give you all twenty meal tickets, how about it?"

Twenty meal tickets are less than Xia Lunong imagined, he smiled openly, "Yes, thank you Brother Liu!"

"Hey, you're welcome. Wait a minute, I'll get you a cloth bag and put it in it for you. The seeds are delicate, so don't break the seed coat."

Xia Lunong stood at the old Liu's house and waited.

The old Liu's house was also rebuilt from the ruins, with tiles on the floor, tiles on the lower half of the wall, and exposed red bricks on the upper half.

The wooden tables and chairs in the living room look quite new, and they should have been newly made not long ago.

Lao Liu came out of the room after a while, holding a cloth bag in one hand and a cigarette in the other hand, helping him pack the seeds quickly, and asked, "What has your brother been up to lately?"

Xia Lunong quickly realized, "Brother Liu, do you need my brother?"

"I want to find your brother to do a job." Lao Liu took another puff of his cigarette, and didn't pretend to be a fool. "We have found the way, and we plan to go to Zhangshu County for a short trip. If there is no one to hold the line, you can ask your brother if you like it." Interested? We are willing to pay him twenty catties of rice for a trip."

Xia Lunong didn't know where Zhangshu County was, and he didn't know if the trip would be dangerous. He said cautiously: "I'll ask my brother. My brother and Xi Nian seem to be looking for a generator set again recently. I don't know Are you free?"

Lao Liu sent him out with a smile, "It's okay, you can ask for help, if your brother has other conditions, you can also discuss it."

Xia Lunong went home with the peanut seeds on his back and told his brother about the matter.

Xia Huoqu asked, "How many days will it take for the trip?"

Xia Lunong scratched his head, he forgot to ask.

Xia Huoqu knew what he looked like, and said: "Forget it, I will go and tell him later, if I have time, I will make a trip."

Xia Lunong was curious, "Is Zhangshu County far away?"

"It's not very far. Run at Liao Cheng's speed. You can start from the base in the morning and reach the county in the evening." Xia Huo channeled, "There are more mutant creatures."

"Huh? Wouldn't that be dangerous?"

"The risk will be greater. Anyone who dares to go to the county must be able to transform into a beast, and it must be the kind of animal that can run extremely fast or have a particularly strong self-protection ability after transforming into a beast."

Xia Lunong just wanted to ask his brother if he could take him with him, but was blocked by his brother's words.

He scratched his face depressedly, "Then I have to be home alone again?"

A smile flashed in Xia Huoqu's eyes, "We'll talk about it after you can transform into a beast."

After lying in bed that night, Xia Lunong worked hard quietly, and now he imagines himself turning into a beast every day.

His brother is a giant wolf, and his body size is not as big as his brother's. If he transforms into a beast, his beast shape should not be as big as his brother's, and he should be able to transform into a normal-sized white wolf?

It doesn't need to be too big, it's good to be as big as Liao Chengge's animal shape.

Xia Lunong fell asleep with secret expectations.

He got up early the next morning.

The peanut seeds were exchanged, and Xia Lunong and his brother had to carry hoes to plant peanuts.

No matter how late I am afraid of missing the season.

When they arrived at the field, Xia Lunong made a patrol first as usual, pulling weeds and catching insects.

He soon discovered that the tomatoes had small flower buds.

"Brother!" Xia Lunong's eyes burst into great surprise, and he quickly waved to his brother, "Come and see! Are the tomatoes about to bear fruit?"

Xia Huoqu walked over.

They only planted one ridge of tomatoes, a total of ten plants.

After planting for more than a month, the tomatoes reached their knee height, the stems grew thick and thick, and each plant looked like an open umbrella.

After Xia Huoqu checked it carefully, he pointed to a certain plant and said, "It's not about to bear fruit, but it has already. Look at this plant."

Xia Lunong leaned over to look, and sure enough, she saw a small blue bead under a certain leaf of this tomato plant.

"It's really fruitful!" Xia Lunong marveled and touched the small blue bead with her hands, more carefully than touching tender tofu, "How long will it take to grow?"

"It should be ready to eat next week."

Xia Lunong looked up at his brother, "Then should we fertilize?"

"Ask Liao Cheng, he has experience."

After the tomatoes bear fruit, Xia Lunong brings a huge surprise.

He walked around the field carefully, and soon found that not only tomatoes, but also beans, eggplants, peppers, etc. had small flower buds, and it was estimated that they would soon bear fruit.

Xia Lunong walked around, feeling full of satisfaction in her heart.

Xia Huoqu didn't mention him, and took the initiative to carry the cloth bag and plant peanuts in the past.

The soil ridges have been turned over, the soil surface is fluffy, and there are no weeds. Now we only need to dig holes to plant peanut seeds.

Xia Huoqu took a small hoe, dug a hole and put two seeds in it, covered the soil back, dug another hole at a distance of more than ten centimeters, and continued planting.

Xia Lunong walked around the field and also came to plant peanuts.

Planting peanuts is not very tiring, but it is hard to bend over.

The two brothers planted the peanuts in the middle of the afternoon.

Now that the weather is warm, after planting and pouring water on it, the peanuts will germinate in two or three days.

After planting the peanuts, Xia Lunong beat his waist, packed up his things and went to the ditch to wash his feet, Xia Huoqu was with him.

It was still early, Xia Lunong said: "There is no food at home, should I go to the cafeteria to change?"

"Let's make do with it. You don't necessarily have to eat hard vegetables every meal. Let's fry some dried radishes for a meal."

Xia Lunong smiled embarrassingly, "We also charged my brother's food expenses in the past, isn't it a bit too foolish?"

"It's okay, I can't afford to eat meat every day."

Having said that, Xia Lunong was still thinking about what appetizing dishes to make for the evening.

When they walked to the door of the house, they saw Liao Cheng waiting for them outside the house with two chickens. Judging by the appearance, the waiting time should not be short.

Xia Lunong's eyes lit up, "Brother Liao Cheng, do you want to eat chicken tonight?"

Liao Chengzheng was bored waiting, and when he heard his voice raised his head, he laughed and scolded, "Such a prodigal? What kind of chicken do you eat? This is for you!"

"Ah?" Xia Lunong looked at the two chickens in his hand, with distrust in his small eyes, "Ah?"

"Yes, you can build a shed in the corner of the house and keep it in it. If you think the shed is troublesome, you can also ask the old man in the base to make a chicken coop." Liao Cheng said and handed over the chickens in his hand, "They are all hens , take good care of them, and they will be able to lay eggs in a few months."

The two hens were half-sized, one had an extra comb, and the other had an extra toe, so there was basically no variation.

Xia Lunong carried the hen with a heavy hand, no matter how you liked it, it was too precious.

"Forget it, Brother Liao Cheng, the hen is so rare now, you can take it back."

"You can keep it if I give it to you. I'll come back for dinner next time. After raising it, you can eat a few more eggs, make up for it, and strive for the success of animalization as soon as possible." Liao Cheng said, "Okay, I'll send the chicken Arrived, go back to work first, see you later."

Xia Huoqu came up from behind, patted Xia Lunong on the shoulder and said, "Brother Liao Cheng has a heart, so keep it."

Xia Lunong's subordinates shouted at Liao Cheng: "Brother Liao Cheng, thank you."

Liao Cheng turned his back to him and waved.

Holding the chicken, Xia Lunong looked at her yard and muttered, "There are two more chickens, it's more like a small farmyard."
