I became a farmer in the apocalypse.
Chapter 99 Cutting Bamboo
Lin An: "Whether it's edible or not, you'll know once you do the test, won't you?"
Tang You was the first to test it, and immediately looked at everyone with delight: "The strawberries and potatoes are non-toxic!"
This caused a stir among everyone.
"Sister Lin, is this for us?"
Lin An nodded. "Of course."
"But these aren't from me. They're from the wood-type ability user I'm protecting. She asked me to bring them to you. These are all things she grew. She heard the food at the front wasn't good, so she specifically asked me to bring them over to improve your meals."
Tang You touched the bright red, beautiful strawberries. "These things aren't cheap. These strawberries are so good, they must have sold for a lot of money, right? She's so generous! She just brought them over to us like that?"
Lin An nodded and smiled, "She said it was a small token of her appreciation. In any case, it's a good thing that she had this intention, and you should all remember her kindness."
"And the strawberries and potatoes she grows are absolutely delicious! You'll never forget them!"
As she said this, Lin An felt proud, as if she had grown the potatoes and strawberries herself.
Lin Zhiwei knew Lin An's personality all too well. "It seems you get along well with that wood-type ability user."
When Lin An left, she was very reluctant, but now she doesn't seem to be saying she's unwilling anymore.
Team leader Tan Xin also smiled and said, "Stop crowding around, wash the strawberries, and bake the potatoes. Let's get ready for dinner!"
"good!"
The group busied themselves with great enthusiasm, some setting up fires, some kneading dough, and others making wild vegetable pancakes.
Soon, the wild vegetable pancakes were ready, and the strawberries were placed on the table. Eleven people sat around the large camp table.
"The roasted potatoes are here!"
Tang You brought in a wooden basin filled with roasted potatoes, and along with the potatoes came a very rich aroma of roasted potatoes!
"Oh my god! I'm so hungry! What kind of potatoes are these? They smell so good! My mouth is watering while they're baking!"
Everyone was swallowing their saliva like crazy. They were already exhausted, and they had been waiting for dinner for ages. The aroma of potatoes was so strong that it was unbelievable. If you didn't know better, you would think they were grilling something!
"Eat quickly if you're hungry!" Tan Xin said.
Each person took a large potato, which felt heavy in their hands, but also smelled delicious.
Peel off the potato skin, take a bite, and instantly, all ten people's eyes widened in surprise!
"What kind of divine roasted potato is this?!"
"So delicious!"
"Has it been too long since I've had potatoes? These potatoes taste completely different from anything I've ever had before!"
Song Yu grabbed another strawberry. "Let me try this strawberry!"
Take a bite of the strawberry.
Suddenly, the aroma of strawberries exploded like a grenade.
"The strawberry smell is so strong! The air has become sweet!" Tang You sniffed frantically.
Seeing how much Song Yu was enjoying her food, the others couldn't resist joining in. Before they had even finished their potatoes, they grabbed strawberries, each one the size of a peach, and took a bite, feeling very satisfied.
"Wow, these strawberries are a hundred times sweeter than the Red Beauty strawberries I ate before the apocalypse!"
Inside the women's barracks, the sweet aroma of strawberries mingled with the rich scent of roasted potatoes, wafting far and wide.
"Wait, what are they doing? Why do I smell strawberries?"
The men in the nearby barracks could smell the strange fragrance.
"It's not strawberry, it smells like potato..."
"What? Tan Xin is eating roasted potatoes? Aren't potatoes only eaten once a month? Why are they having them today?"
The group of people arrived curiously in front of the women's barracks.
Someone shouted inside, "Captain Tan, what delicious food are you having?"
Tan Xin lifted the tent flap and came out, looking at the newcomers with a calm expression. "We ate wild vegetable pancakes, didn't we all eat wild vegetable pancakes today? What's wrong? What do you want?"
The male soldier scratched the back of his head. "Wait a minute, we definitely smelled roasted potatoes."
"You must be mistaken. Today isn't potato season, so where would we get potatoes to eat?"
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the barracks.
A male soldier stared at the gate of the women's barracks, then sniffed hard. "No, they're definitely lying. This smell is coming from their side."
Everyone laughed, "Looks like Tan Xin and the others want to eat it all by themselves! Haha!"
I thought I'd be able to get some good food here! But these female soldiers completely denied that they were eating anything good.
Someone angrily said, "Next time we hunt some game, we won't share it with them! Let them drool!"
"..."
Before going to bed, Jiang Li checked the 10 jin of rice seeds in the wooden basin.
According to the seed station, only 10 jin of rice seeds need to be sown per mu. They bought 40 jin initially, and the 10 jin that have been processed are already showing signs of ripening. They can be sown directly into the field tomorrow.
After the rice seeds are sown, her planting area will increase by one acre, bringing her one step closer to upgrading the farm to level one.
It rained all night.
The rain stopped as dawn broke.
Jiang Li got up.
Today's task: Trade 100 jin of potatoes, reward 10 jin of 100% anti-mutation rice seeds! (Progress 0%)
Jiang Li's eyes lit up when she saw today's task.
Plans never keep up with changes. She had already bought the rice seeds and was ready to plant them today, but now the system is going to reward her with rice seeds that are 100% resistant to mutation.
She knew perfectly well which yielded more output: an 82% mutation rate or a 0% mutation rate. Consuming the same amount of supernatural power resulted in a four- to five-fold difference in output…
Let's not plant rice yet. Let's plant some green beans first and try out the green bean seeds that the system rewarded us with. We can plant rice after we get the rice seeds that the system rewarded us with.
After getting dressed, Jiang Li took a hoe and shovel to the vegetable garden. She busied herself in the field, and after a series of operations, she managed to grow two plots of green bean sprouts.
Green beans don't need a large area; a plot of land of only 10 square meters is enough.
Jiang Li looked at the lush green pea sprouts, clapped her hands, and was very satisfied.
Next, we need to build a trellis for the green beans. Green beans are vines, so if you give them a pole, they will climb up the pole and produce lots of green beans!
Jiang Li went back into the house and took out a wood-chopping knife.
Jiang Yan woke up. "Sis, what are you doing?"
Jiang Li said without turning her head, "I need to build a trellis for Qingdou and prepare to go to the woods to cut some thin bamboo poles."
She borrowed bamboo poles from Ye Hongjun to prop up the strawberries last time, and now she has some prepared herself, which will be useful for planting this type of crop in the future.
Jiang Yan quickly got dressed. "Sis, I'll go with you."
There is a small bamboo grove not far away, about two kilometers away.
The siblings locked the farm gate, took their tools, and headed to the bamboo forest.
As Jiang Yan left, he glanced back at the farm. "Sis, having fences and gates is so convenient. We don't need to keep someone watching over it. I can also lend you a hand when you go out in the future."
The bamboo was wet from the rain, but it didn't affect anything.
This small bamboo grove has been almost completely cut down by people in the neighborhood.
"Sister, there are still quite a few bamboo shoots on the ground." Jiang Yan squatted down and examined a bamboo shoot root, then immediately looked disappointed. "This one can't be eaten."
Jiang Li activated the scanner and glanced at the area. "No need to look anymore. There's nothing edible here. Everything edible has already been dug up. The bamboo has been chopped to pieces. What bamboo shoots could possibly be left for you?"
