Wasteland Farming, Manual for Raising Human Cubs

Chapter 136 Wrong Million
Meng Er was so cute that his hands were itching. He couldn't help but rub the chubby little face hard, risking being beaten to death by Zhao Gang, and said happily:
"Just wait, in the spring, your uncle will give you some mutant sparrows to roast and eat. You can eat as many as you want!"

Zhao Xiaoxiu stepped back, covered her face, and reminded him: "Do what you say!"

Meng Er: "It's a deal. I lied to you that I'm a mutant dog!"

Meng Da and Grandma Meng couldn't help laughing out loud. What an idiot! Who would say that he wants to be a dog?
However, the things sent by Zhao Xiaoxiu and his daughter were really timely. If they had an extra gun in their hands today, Wu Hao and the other four would not have been so arrogant.

Meng Da heated the pot, added water, took out the frog meat and prepared to cook it, but Zhao Gang quickly called a halt, drove him away with disgust, and started to stew the frog meat himself.

The mother and son of the Meng family basically rely on nutrient solution to survive. Occasionally, when Meng Er has a harvest in the mountains, he can have a snack of fruit or meat that is not so bad in taste.

To be honest, sometimes those meats and fruits don’t taste as good as the flavored nutrient solution.

If you don’t cook, there won’t be any seasonings at home.

Fortunately, Zhao Gang brought a bag of salt and half a bottle of homemade seasoning sauce with him. He poured half a bowl of frog meat into half a pot of boiling water, added salt and seasoning sauce, and the aroma soon wafted out.

The neighbors poked their heads out, but when they looked at the ground and saw the blood vomited by Wu Hao's men, they hurriedly retracted their heads.

He muttered to himself: I really don't know where the mother and son of the Meng family got to know such a powerful evolved being. Not only did they not die, but they also beat up Wu Hao and his gang of local bullies like pugs.

The family who had previously encouraged others to drive away the mother and two children of the Meng family closed the doors and windows tightly and pricked up their ears to pay attention to the noise coming from the Meng family's house.

Whenever they heard the slightest unusual sound, they would be startled, fearing that the two Meng brothers would come with their terrifyingly powerful eldest brother to take revenge.

Zhao Xiaoxiu's hearing had already surpassed the range of ordinary evolved humans, and she could clearly hear all the little noises around the Meng family.

In this chaotic area, whoever has the bigger fist is the boss. No matter if they are the new survivors of the Hope Base or the natives of the Taoyuan Base, as long as they are not strong enough, they will be bullied, excluded and suppressed.

Apart from water, electricity, and high defensive walls, living conditions here are actually more complicated and difficult than in the planting area.

While Zhao Xiaoxiu was glad that she and her father decided to leave the city, she couldn't help but worry about the future situation of the Meng family's mother and son.

It was obvious that Wu Hao was a local tyrant with powerful backing. After being beaten up by my father today, he has temporarily calmed down.

But after she and her father left, who knows how long she can continue to be intimidated by her father's remaining influence?
"Uncle Meng, the factory is gone. What are you going to do next?" Zhao Xiaoxiu asked.

Meng Da had no time to think about this question just now. Now that Zhao Xiaoxiu suddenly asked him, he was stunned for a moment and sighed, "The factory should be rebuilt."

But he couldn't be sure.

After all, the headquarters of the Hope Base has now been moved to Jiangcheng. Whether the higher-ups will continue to build factories near the Taoyuan Base depends on the response from the Taoyuan Base.

But now Taoyuan Base is also a mess waiting to be cleaned up, and it will take at least half a month to recover.

However, he and Meng Er still have a few hundred points, plus the supplies and thirty bottles of nutrient solution sent by Gangzi and his daughter today, it will be no problem for them to survive the winter.

"When spring comes, the base will issue a lot of cleanup missions. I will find a new hunting group to join the missions, and I will be able to accumulate points and return them to you soon." Meng Er said anxiously.

Granny Meng also said: "I am still strong enough to work as a logistics support for the group. It is not a problem to support myself. I will save up the extra money and exchange it for evolution potions as soon as possible so that I can have a way out."

Zhao Xiaoxiu asked curiously, "Does the Taoyuan Base hunting group also need ordinary people?"

Meng Er choked and lowered his head. "I want it, but the salary will be lower."

but
"I have the gun you gave me, Xiaoxiu. It'll be easy now!" Meng Dake was not so optimistic. He reminded: "Ordinary guns are not as effective as fire and knife for these mutants now."

Mutated animals are not so bad, but the threat of guns is still quite big.

But as for mutated plants, they do not rely on any particular nerve, organ, or muscle to survive.

Sometimes the threat of a gun is less than that of a fire.

All members of the hunting group assume that the probability of encountering a mutated animal alive is greater than the probability of encountering a mutated plant alive.

Besides, they have now evolved to the second stage. In the future, the gap between ordinary people and evolvers will become larger and larger, and the resources they can obtain will become more extreme.

"When will the price of evolution potions be reduced?" Meng Er covered his face and wailed. Points are hard to earn and shit is hard to eat. When will this world be more tolerant to ordinary people?
Zhao Gang, who had made the frog meat soup, stood up with a spoon in his hand, looked at the suffering Meng Er expressionlessly, and said seriously:

"I suggest you become a bandit. You can earn points quickly and get evolution potions for free without having to wait for the price to drop."

Meng Da laughed awkwardly: "Brother Gangzi, don't joke."

Zhao Gang: "I'm not kidding." He was serious.

Look, didn’t he and the cub earn 1200 points for free today?
It’s really quick to gain points by plundering other people’s resources.

Seeing Zhao Gang speaking seriously, his stupid brother's eyes gradually showed a look of longing. Meng Da kicked his brother's calf and said, "What are you thinking about? Be careful or I'll kill you!"

Meng Er retracted his foot and took a deep breath, then said seriously, "I think what Brother Gangzi said makes sense. We don't take the initiative to rob, but if we encounter someone who wants to rob us, can we also rob it back?"

Meng Da: “Ah, this.”

Why is he suddenly feeling moved?

Zhao Xiaoxiu suddenly stood up with an "ah".

Everyone immediately looked at her nervously, and Granny Meng asked quickly, "What's wrong?"

Zhao Xiaoxiu said with a look of annoyance: "We just let those four bastards go!"

"Is there any problem?" Meng Er thought it was a big deal and asked speechlessly.

"Of course there is a problem!" Zhao Xiaoxiu reminded: "I forgot to ask them to hand over all the supplies!"

"Fuck!" Meng Er slapped his thigh and looked at Zhao Xiaoxiu. What a mistake!

Meng Da angrily kicked his brother and warned him not to lead children astray.

Zhao Gang knocked on the bowl and shouted, "Eat."

"Okay!" Several people answered loudly. If you are not active while eating, there is something wrong with your mind!
Zhao Xiaoxiu held the fragrant frog meat soup in her hand, and the pain in her flesh was instantly relieved.

The two Meng brothers swallowed hard, and took the bowl of frog meat soup from Zhao Gang expectantly. They took a deep breath of the aroma, and their souls instantly soared.

Wow. They actually deserve to eat such delicious food. I’m so touched!
