Chapter 54 Days Without Men

The system restricts Tang Qiyue to redeem points only in this time and space. Points can only be used to purchase things from another time and space, but not things from this time and space.

This restriction was nothing serious, but Tang Qiyue looked at the situation at home and thought about the things that could be exchanged in the plane of the end of the world.

There are a lot of high-tech things, but there is a lack of food.

However, this restriction did not cause much trouble to Tang Qiuyue.

She had no shortage of food on the island, and many things from the end of the world were still very attractive to her.

Without Zhan Zeye at home, she had more freedom and exchanged for a pair of headphones with a memory card containing various songs about the end of the world.

She can definitely take it with her and do things so she won't be too bored.

And while Zhan Zeye was away, she just got out a small toolbox. She had originally planned to use stone slabs to pave the floor, but now that Zhan Zeye was not there, she thought of getting some sand back and then adding some materials that were only available in the doomsday to solidify the ground.

She did what she said. She needed a cart to get the sand. After all, sand was not easy to hide and anyone who came to the house could see it, so it was better not to have any bad ideas.

When Tang Qiyue went to borrow a wheelbarrow from the one-eyed uncle, the one-eyed uncle learned that Tang Qiyue wanted to spread sand in the room, and immediately said: "Why do you need to do this? These brats have nothing to do all day, let them pull a few carts for you!"

The one-eyed uncle didn't even need Tang Qiyue's consent and directly arranged a few soldiers to transport sand.

There is a lot of soft white sand on the beach. Don't worry even if a layer is blown away, because it will be brought up again after the tide rises.

When the sand is brought back, it is not spread in the room immediately, but placed in the yard to be exposed to the sun first, so as to at least dissipate the moisture.

Tang Qiyue could handle the rest on her own. She took out the dried meat she had exchanged and distributed it to the soldiers who came to help. Although dried meat was food for the end of the world, it was still good for grinding teeth.

Several soldiers left happily. Tang Qiyue looked at the fine sand that filled the yard and felt very grateful to the honest soldiers.

When the neighbors learned that Tang Qiyue used sand to spread the yard and the house to prevent mud, they followed suit.

That night, after taking a shower, Tang Qiyue looked at the simple conditions in the bathroom and couldn't help but exchange it for the all-purpose robot and set up the program. However, after she had fumigated the mosquitoes in the yard, the bathroom looked different.

The ground was leveled and compacted, and drainage pipes were dug out.

Tang Qiyue didn't dare to change too much as it was difficult to explain.

This was already a little difficult to explain, but luckily she was strong and could use the excuse that she had compacted the ground herself to get away with it.

When she returns to the room, she will naturally not let it go. Cleaning is Tang Qiyue's weakness. Now that she has such a little thing, Tang Qiyue can naturally get rid of the trouble of doing housework.

There are only a limited number of materials that can be used, so Tang Qiuyue doesn't dare to let the robot go wild and make drastic changes.

Before going to bed, Tang Qiyue was still thinking about making something that was in line with this era the next day, at least so that no one would notice anything was wrong.

The next day, without Zhan Zeye's waking up to disturb him, the earplugs played their full role and he slept until noon.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw the lunch box hanging on the door. I knew it was the breakfast sent by the one-eyed uncle in the cafeteria.

Tang Qiuyue opened the lunch box and saw a bowl of noodle soup, fried fish and two corn cakes.

Although it doesn’t look good, it tastes very good.

After Tang Qiuyue finished eating, she exchanged some sugar and tobacco.

She remembered the pipe that the one-eyed uncle wore on his waist. Although he didn't smoke while cooking, the smell of smoke on his body showed that he was definitely a heavy smoker.

Many people like to smoke in the end times. Tobacco has evolved to be easy to feed, and the tobacco has been specially processed, so the effect of stimulating human nerves is still there, but some harmful substances such as nicotine have been removed. Tang Qiyue should not give gifts that harm others.

A bag of tobacco cannot be used to keep seeds, and it is difficult to trace its source, so it is much easier than exchanging it for ready-made cigarettes.

As for white sugar, it was purely because I saw the one-eyed uncle in the cafeteria get excited when he saw white sugar. It can be seen that although the cafeteria can purchase it, white sugar is still a rare commodity.

Although Tang Qiyue can cook for herself, she has to return the favor since someone sent her breakfast.

Carrying the things to the cafeteria, I saw the one-eyed uncle smoking under a big tree outside the cafeteria. When he saw Tang Qiyue appear, he cheerfully asked her how her breakfast was.

"Uncle's cooking skills never disappoint!"

Tang Qiyue complimented him and took out the tobacco, unwrapped it in dry leaves and handed it to the one-eyed uncle. The one-eyed uncle sniffed and could not hold the pipe in his mouth any longer, so he pressed his thumb into the pipe bowl and put out the tobacco inside.

Tang Qiyue wanted to grit her teeth at the sight.

Doesn’t his hand hurt?
Fortunately, the calluses on the one-eyed uncle's fingertips were particularly thick, so he was not burned.

"Let me smell it!"

The one-eyed uncle looked at Tang Qiyue excitedly, wishing he could snatch the tobacco away from her, but for fear of scaring Tang Qiyue, he could only stare at her.

He was a man as strong as an iron tower, but he was hunched over with a look of longing on his face. Tang Qiyue couldn't bear to watch it and hurriedly put the tobacco in her hand into the one-eyed uncle's.

The one-eyed uncle didn't care that Tang Qiyue was next to him. He put the pipe under his nose and took a puff. His eyes lit up. Then he took several more puffs. Finally, he couldn't resist knocking out all the remaining tobacco in the pipe. He even used the wire on it to scrape the residue in the pipe clean. Then he carefully filled the pipe with new tobacco.

He lit it with a match, bit the pipe mouth and took a deep puff. His already shining eyes became even brighter.

Although he only has one eye, one can still see his excitement: "It's strong enough, but it doesn't burn my throat!"

What a good thing!

The one-eyed uncle has smoked all his life, and has tried both good and bad cigarettes, but he has never tasted any tobacco that could compare to the one in this pot.

"Girl, where did you get it?"

Tang Qiyue rubbed her nose, but didn't dare to tell him the truth: "My father probably stuffed this in when he stuffed my dowry into my pocket. I thought Zhan Zeye probably doesn't smoke, so I gave it to you, uncle!"

Anyway, the one-eyed uncle won’t go to Tang’s father to verify it, so just put the blame on him.

"I see. I was thinking of buying more!"

It was really a pity, but when he heard Tang Qiyue say that Zhan Zeye didn't smoke, the one-eyed uncle chuckled.

If that brat knew that his wife didn't leave such a good thing for him but gave it to him as a gift, I wonder if he would be furious.

"Girl, you're right. Xiao Ye, that brat, doesn't smoke. If you have such good tobacco next time, you must think of me. I'll make you something delicious!"

The one-eyed uncle set a trap for Zhan Zeye without any guilt.

Tang Qiyue agreed happily, and seeing that the one-eyed uncle looked very happy, she asked him a question.

But this incident made the one-eyed uncle's expression change instantly.
