Cats grow fields in the apocalyptic wasteland

Xia Lunong and the others dug the soil back, mixed the soil and moved the stones.

After three full days of busy work, their bread kiln was ready.

During this period, the two went up the mountain and built a small bamboo shed on top of the bread kiln, which was covered with plastic sheeting and straw.

The chicken coop next to it was also moved away from their eaves to the side of Yan Xinian's eaves.

Walking out of the house of Xia Lunong's house, you can see the big tree on the left, and there is a bread kiln next to the big tree near the house.

In front of the bread kiln is a vegetable field, where strawberries, watermelons, and cantaloupe are growing, and there are immature fruits under the leaves.

Xia Lunong looked at the small white flowers and small blue fruits of the strawberry, looked left and right, took advantage of the distance, and raised her hand to input a short amount of power into it.

As soon as the ability was lost, the small blue strawberries under the leaves immediately stretched and expanded at a very slow speed.

Kong Zhi seemed to sense something, and raised his eyes to look over.

With a guilty conscience, Xia Lunong immediately backed up, and ran into the house with small steps.

With the bread kiln, their efficiency in making tomato chili rake and eggplant chili cake more than tripled, and all the eggplant chili cakes were ready in the afternoon.

The two put the prepared tomato and chili cake on the scale and weighed it. Excluding the weight of the basket, it was 150 jin in total, and the eggplant and chili cake was 77 jin.

Xia Lunong was so tired that her waist was sore and her back ached, she sniffed the smell of chili cake in the air, and slumped on the chair, "We are so awesome!"

Xia Lunong said as she looked at the chili cakes piled up in the corner of the living room, feeling a sense of pride in her heart.

Kong Zhi also looked at it, "I'll go to Captain Ke Yan and tell you, since it's done, let's deliver it sooner."

"That's okay. It happens that we can exchange some more rice after delivery. It will be more convenient for us to go to Yacheng to exchange things the day after tomorrow." Xia Lu's thick waist is really sore, and she waved her hand at Kong Zhi, "I'll leave this to you, no , I'll go to sleep for a while. If I don't sleep again, I'll pass out."

Seeing that Xia Lunong was really tired, Kong Zhi wanted to help him squeeze his shoulders.

This is a very common action, usually the two will pinch each other.

When Kong Zhi put his hand on Xia Lunong's shoulder today, Xia Lunong shivered subconsciously, and looked back at him abruptly.

Kong Zhi raised his hand, "What's wrong?"

Xia Lunong blinked in confusion.

The touch on the shoulder was too strange, warm and tingling, like electricity.

He usually has physical contact with Kong Zhi, so he is not so sensitive, what happened today.

Xia Lunong rubbed the shoulder touched by him vigorously, feeling the heat from his big palm still lingering on it, she quickly shook her head, "It's okay. I'm just a little tired, it feels strange to be touched, I'll go back to my room to sleep first. "

Kong Zhi lowered his eyelashes and glanced at his palm, then raised his head, "Go."

Xia Lunong ran back to the room as if fleeing, closed the door with a "bang" and locked it.

Kong Zhi looked outside his room for a long time before going out to look for Yan Xiannian.

When leaving, Kong Zhi deliberately closed the door and locked it with the key.

Yan Xiannian and their side are almost finished.

Hearing that Kong Zhi came over and said that the chili cakes were ready, Yan Xinian said: "It's just right, our side is almost finished, and it will be gone in two days. While everyone is still here, you can pick up the chili cakes." ? Change it early and end this matter early."

Kong Zhi nodded, and said again: "There are not so many bags of chili cakes."

Yan Xi Nian said: "Then I'll let them go home and get the bags by themselves, and they just brought the rice with them."

Xia Huoqu came back after picking up a load of sand and gravel, wiped his sweat and said, "Don't be so troublesome, just ask them to bring rice to go home to change after work tonight. Kong Zhi, you can go to Liao Cheng's house to borrow a few baskets or bags. There is no place to store rice."

Upon hearing the words, Yan Xiannian immediately said: "Your brother Xia can do this too, just listen to your brother Xia."

Kong Zhi nodded.

Xia Huoqu said with a gentle expression: "Thank you for your hard work. After today's work, take a rest tomorrow and take you out for a stroll the day after tomorrow."

Kong Zhi went to Liao Cheng's house to borrow baskets.

Afraid of running away, he made a detour around the field of Liao Cheng's family.

Liao Guo was indeed in the field. When Kong Zhi looked for him, he was pulling weeds in the rice field with his trousers rolled up.

Seeing Kong Zhi, Liao Cheng straightened up and greeted him happily, "Why are you here when you are free?"

Kong Zhi said: "Thinking of borrowing a few baskets from your house, in case you are not at home, come here first to have a look."

Liao Cheng gave him a thumbs up, "It's a wise move."

Standing on the ridge of the field, Kong Zhi smelled an obvious fishy smell. He looked towards the field, "How about the fish raised in the field?"

"It looks good, let me show you." Liao Cheng grabbed one casually, put it in his palm and handed it to him, "Here, that's it. I eat wormwood seeds all day long, and I'm very fat. A round of mutations, I hope they don't mutate too much."

Kong Zhi looked at the fish in his palm.

This fish is already two fingers wide, with a white belly and a black back. Apart from an extra layer of tail, there is nothing weird about the whole body. It looks quite cute.

After Liao Cheng finished reading it for him, he threw the fish with its mouth open and closed back into the water, watched it swim away with a flick of its tail, and asked, "How are your fields?"

Kong Zhi said: "The base has pulled out all the sweet potatoes on it, and I will plow the field when I come back from the trip."

"It will take a while. Where are the seedlings? Are you going to raise the seedlings yourself or buy them from Lao Liu?"

Liao Cheng took out the keys while talking to him. He felt itchy legs when he took out the keys. He bent down and stretched out his hand to "snap" the insects on his calf that were sucking his blood. He straightened up and said, "If you grow seedlings by yourself, you should start now." After you have plowed the field, it is time to transplant it.”

"Go buy it from Brother Liu, I don't know how to raise seedlings."

"That's right. You don't look like someone who has been farming. When the time comes, you can go to him to buy seedlings and some fish fry. Remember to ask him to give you a discount by the way."

Kong Zhi nodded.

Liao Cheng smiled, took a few steps forward, and handed him the key, "This is the key to my house. The baskets are piled up in my room. You can go in and get it yourself. I will go around to your house to get the key later."

Kong Zhi nodded and bid him farewell.

Liao Cheng patted his calf twice and continued to weed.

The sun had not yet set, and the sun was shining on his lean back, forming a layer of sweat.The clothes on his back were already wet with sweat and were sticking to his back.

When Kong Zhi went back with an empty basket, there were already people waiting at the door who wanted to exchange chili cakes.

The man said: "I didn't hear anyone answer when I called the door just now, I thought you were going out, but when I heard it again, there seemed to be some movement inside, is there anyone at home?"

"Xiao Nong is here." Kong Zhi said, "Maybe I didn't hear it. How much chili cake?"

"Five catties, I made a reservation with Deputy Xia and the others before." The man said and handed over the cloth bag in his hand, "This is thirty catties of rice, please weigh it."

Kong Zhi took out the scale in front of him and weighed it. Seeing that the weight was enough, he poured the rice into the basket, then brought him tomato and chili cakes, weighed five catties for him, and added half a catty of eggplant and chili cakes as a gift.

The man didn't expect there to be a gift, so he immediately smiled and said, "Hey, you made two flavors. I'll take them home and try them first. If they taste good, I'll come back and exchange them with you."

Kong Zhi nodded, and said again: "We will make a batch for the time being, if you want to change, please come early."

"Hahahaha okay, then I'm leaving, thank you."

Kong Zhi sent people out, went back to the house and knocked on Xia Lunong's door.

Xia Lunong closed the door and didn't respond for a long time. Through the door, she could hear a slight snoring sound, which sounded quite calm.

Kong Zhi guessed that he was fast asleep, so he didn't bother him, so he went to the back of the house to cut leeks and cucumbers, planning to make a simple dinner.

On the way of cooking, from time to time someone came to exchange chili cakes.

Kong Zhi also stopped cooking and went out to change for others.

He has two uses for one person, and he is too busy to touch the ground.

It wasn't until Xia Huoqu and the others came back that the situation eased.

Xia Huoqu looked at his brother's tightly closed door, wondering, "Xiao Nong is still sleeping? Is it uncomfortable?"

"I'm probably too tired." Kong Zhi didn't lift his head, "Call him after dinner."

Xia Huoqu felt sorry for his younger brother. Hearing what he said, he didn't say anything. He just washed his hands and took over the job of exchanging chili cakes for others.

Everyone at the hydropower station was off work, and one after another came over with rice to exchange for chili cakes.

After Xia Lunong and the others exchanged the chili cakes that they planned to go out, the people from the collection team heard the news and came to look for them with rice.

They are the most generous, and they exchange five catties every time they change.

When the scientists in the Bailou heard the news, they also came in groups carrying rice. They exchanged three catties and five catties, and they also exchanged a lot.

Other people in the base watched and came to join in the fun.

They were relatively restrained in their purchases, and exchanged half a catty, mostly to satisfy the gluttony of the elderly and children at home - Xia Lunong's family had been making chili cakes for several days, and the smell was everywhere in front of and behind the house, and many people couldn't stand it.

Soon, the baskets in Xia Lunong's house and the borrowed baskets were all filled with rice.

When it was dark, 150 catties of tomato and chili cakes and 77 catties of eggplant and chilli cakes were all replaced, and there was not a catty left.

They received a thousand and eighty-six catties of white rice, even if the baskets at home were full, and a lot of rice had to be packed in cloth bags.

Baskets of rice are piled up in the corner of the living room, creating a feeling of a full barn.

Not to mention that the baskets couldn't be filled with rice, and there were several cloth bags piled up on it, and the bags were so piled up that they almost reached the ceiling.

There is too much rice in the house, and the whole room is full of the fragrance of rice.

Xia Huoqu and Yan Xinian looked at each other.

Yan Xiannian said with emotion: "I didn't expect Xiao Nong to earn the most food in the family. Now I can rest assured that this cub will not starve to death no matter where he goes."

A smile appeared in Xia Huoqu's eyes.

He turned his head to look at Xia Lunong's closed door, "I asked him to come out for dinner."
