I will plant a field in the last days

Chapter 66 Food is starting to get tight

I just arrived a few days ago. I heard that I have been on the road for more than a month and bumped into several trains before I arrived. The person who came here is your father's cousin. You should call me uncle. Why have I never heard of you? Is there such a relative at home? Dad Jing hesitated a little, then continued:

I was supposed to live at your eldest brother's house, but I don't know why I stayed at Su Meimei's house. It seems that I came here just for Su Meimei.

At the mention of Su Meimei, the atmosphere in the entire living room became a little colder. Grandma and her family had already returned to their house, leaving only Jing's father who was still making garlic sprouts, Jing's mother who was playing with mushroom bags, and making frog binding ropes. It was quiet.

Jingshu raised her head and narrowed her eyes unconsciously. She remembered clearly that in her previous life, there were absolutely no relatives coming all the way, and there was no such thing as her grandfather's cousin coming to see Su Meimei. Where was this in between? The butterfly effect fanned out?

Jing's mother said, In the early years, my father and his cousin came here to work as educated youths in the countryside. After staying for a few years, his family had connections and was recalled. My father's life was not so good, so he stayed. At that time I only heard these things from my mother when I was only a few years old and didn’t remember anything. Later, after my parents passed away, I completely lost contact with my hometown.”

Jingshu frowned and thought, It's been several years since my grandpa passed away. Why did he come all of a sudden, thousands of miles away, after not contacting me for so many years? Is there any hidden secret?

Dad Jing nodded, Looking at your eldest brother's face, there may be something else going on here. Since it has nothing to do with us, just leave it alone.

The old man came so far away, so he still wanted to take a look. Besides, there are basically no people of my parents' generation. Alas. Jing's mother sighed.

In the end, the whole family decided to give the old man a ride when he was about to leave. Mainly because Jing's mother was being hypocritical: I really don't want to go to her aunt's house. I've seen through her.

A stranger, Jing Ma, would never be so sad. The problem is that she grew up together and gave Su Meimei whatever good things she had. Jing Ma treated Su Meimei with all her heart and soul. What was the result?

Not only did Su Meimei not help Jing Ma when she was in trouble, she also planned to take advantage of Jing Ma, which completely broke Jing Ma's heart.

Okay, it's time to go take a look. Jing Shu thought, she must find out what butterfly effect caused something that didn't happen in her previous life. She would not take Su Meimei lightly.

The work of her hands also became faster and faster. Jingshu quickly made hundreds of frog tying ropes. This was a technique she learned from a frog breeder in her previous life. The tying rope is actually a slip knot, which is similar to a dog rope. By adjusting it, it can act on the necks and limbs of small frogs to large frogs to prevent the frogs from jumping around.

After all, in the apocalypse where bugs are rampant and frogs are almost extinct due to high temperatures, raising a frog is very precious, and not everyone can afford it. The biggest function of raising a frog is to eat bugs, but the premise is that the owner must provide water and adapted temperature.

For this reason, Jingshu also went to the glass factory and stole many containers for frogs. The frogs usually stay in the containers. Every few hours, they can hold the rope and eat the bugs that appear inexplicably in the house. The bell-horned frogs are raised. It can live for more than ten years and eat all the bugs around it. It is much better than the discontinued toilet water. Unfortunately, in the difficult and dangerous living conditions of the end of the world, few people can do it.

In just a few days, the bell-horned frogs in Jingshu's Rubik's Cube space have already laid a lot of tadpoles, but the three outside the villa have not responded at all. Jingshu knows that frogs have difficulty in breeding every year, so she created Frog breeders have also become rare in the last days.

Take your precious frog to the work unit tomorrow to eat worms. I've been too nervous about pesticides recently, Jing's mother said.

Jingshu agreed while watching the interludes in the group.

Wang Qiqi No. 13: Now @Luxury Car Dealer No. 5, @Feng No. 3, @Wang Dazhao No. 1, @Zhu Fan No. 7, all the food in their homes has been eaten by carrion insects. Now that it’s clean, who else has food to eat and is willing to barter with them or sell them some? They are already queuing up in front of the supermarket, but it’s estimated that it will take two days before they can queue up to buy something.”

Then everyone in the group talked about how a lot of money had been wasted at home, and now they didn’t even have instant noodles to eat, only cornmeal and rice were left, and there wasn’t enough to eat.

Young Breast I Have a Baby No. 13: I can exchange 5 pounds of dried sweet potatoes and @Wang Dazhao for all the baby products he prepared. Almost everyone knows that Wang Dazhao's pregnant wife died because of eating vegetables sold by scalpers, and her body It was forcibly burned that day.

Wang Dazhao No. 1: Okay. All ten cans of non-contaminated milk powder will be given to your dumplings.

I have a baby named No. 13. Thank you so much. I'll give you another ten kilograms of rice! Now the milk powder is out of stock and I can't even buy it.

Wang Dazhao No. 1: Thank you.

When they saw that someone had snacks like dried sweet potatoes at home, many people got excited and exchanged half a catty of rice for some dried sweet potatoes. As for the other three people, there was nothing worth replacing at home, even with Wang Qiqi's help. success.

In the end, Wang Xuemei agreed to pay 300 yuan each to send them a bowl of rice to the supermarket tomorrow. This was for Wang Qiqi's sake.

Some time ago, there were scalpers selling vegetables, but these days they have all disappeared. Cabbage can’t even be bought for a thousand yuan, and the leaders’ special dishes are much less, not to mention that there are no food sellers at high prices.

All food factories have stopped production, and supermarkets have sold out all other goods. Only rice and noodles are sold in limited quantities and for a limited time every day. Everyone wants to save more food.

The sun has disappeared for half a year, and there is high temperature and water shortage. Even the country has to implement artificial sun. This shows that food has not been grown on a large scale. Everyone is aware of the seriousness of the problem. Although there is still food, there is not much left. There are too many, and I want to stock up on some more food.

Many people feel that those who stocked up too much grain half a year ago regret not stocking up enough today. In this case, no one is willing to sell grain.

The next day, Jingshu took five frogs tied with ropes to Jing's mother's unit, and found out that it turned out that Yu Caini's side used pesticides to kill insects, and there was no shortage of anything. Only Jing's mother was pitiful. Nothing.

But fortunately, the garlic sprouts, spinach, and oyster mushrooms on Jingma's side are all growing lush and green, and they are all very juicy and pleasing to the eye.

Jingshu pulled the rope and released the bell-horned frog. The frogs in the space were obviously active, jumping around and looking for insects, while the other three frogs were much duller.

Mom, why are there so many carrion worms here? Jingshu asked, looking at the piles of carrion worms that were about to take shape in the corner. In the next two days, there would definitely be tens of thousands of carrion larvae.

It's okay to bully the weak and fear the strong. I don't dare to go where there are pesticides. Jing Ma said.

Just as the couple were chatting, footsteps sounded, Director, the vegetables over there are probably all eaten by insects. Look at how well the vegetables here grow. We experimented with different chemicals and There are several options.”
