Chapter 227 Plan
Chapter 227 Plan
After discussing it, Jiang Li asked for thirty jin of rice, while Liang Zi and Qin Yu's families each received thirty-five jin of rice.
Qin Yu was responsible for negotiating with the seller. Once an agreement was reached, Liang Zi would wear protective clothing and drive a snowmobile to transport the rice back.
"By the way, if you encounter any difficulties, just let us know in the group chat, and we will definitely try our best to help."
Jiang Li treats both families as friends, and she is never stingy when it comes to helping them within her capacity.
“If that were really the case, we would all speak up ourselves in such a critical moment without you even having to tell me, Sister Jiang Li.”
Qin Yue said in a joking voice.
After ending the chat, Qin Yu quickly went to find the seller, and they agreed to exchange money for goods.
Just two hours after the chat ended, Liangzi brought back the rice, divided it up, and delivered it to Jiang Li and Qin Yu's families.
Thirty pounds of rice may not seem like much, but if you eat it sparingly, it can last about a month.
If you only eat one meal a day, two months shouldn't be too difficult; you should be able to endure until the fog clears up.
As for the items in the official store, due to staff shortages, they couldn't be delivered, and most of the food items in the store were either unavailable or subject to purchase limits, so Jiang Li and the others gave up on buying them.
Upon learning that the base was running out of food, Jiang Li had a feeling that a storm was brewing.
I wonder how long this peace will last?!
Jiang Li sat on the sofa with a worried look on her face, sighing. Seeing this, Ye Jingmo gently put his arm around her shoulder.
"Are you worried about not having enough food at the base again?"
"Yes, we don't know how long this thick fog will last. If we can't go out, everyone's food will eventually run out."
At that time, cannibalism will probably become commonplace. Jiang Li shuddered at the thought of such bloody and gruesome scenes.
"Then we'll find a secluded mountain forest, with all sorts of materials in the space, and build a house there, where only the two of us will live."
"We'll come out again when things gradually improve; if things are still bad, then we'll just spend the rest of our lives there."
As long as Jiang Li is by his side, Ye Jingmo doesn't have many requirements about where he lives.
"With Brother Mo, Jelly, and Pudding by my side, this seems pretty good." Jiang Li's mood lightened a little.
"What if we turn into cavemen?"
Jiang Li imagined the scene and couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.
"You wouldn't be happy to live like a caveman with me?" Ye Jingmo raised an eyebrow.
"Haha, how could that be?" Jiang Li couldn't help but laugh as she imagined her future life.
Ye Jingmo stared at Jiang Li, as if if she showed the slightest sign of displeasure, he would pounce on her without hesitation and teach her a lesson.
Jiang Li seemed to sense danger and quickly shook her head to indicate that there was no danger.
"As long as Brother Mo is with me, why wouldn't I want to?"
She stepped forward, took Ye Jingmo's arm, and planted a kiss on his cheek, giggling foolishly.
Jiang Li's words acted like a fuse, instantly igniting Ye Jingmo's passion. He grabbed Jiang Li's chin and kissed her without saying a word, greedily sucking on her tongue.
Jiang Li felt dizzy, as if the entire ceiling was spinning.
Suddenly, his vision brightened, and Ye Jingmo's voice was hoarse and deep: "I'll let you go for now."
Jiang Li's cheeks were as red as ripe apples, and she shyly looked away.
Oh dear, how embarrassing!
We were all noobs at the beginning, so why is Brother Mo so good at flirting now?
Does this kind of thing require talent? Or did Brother Mo secretly get extra lessons?
Jiang Li subconsciously licked her moist lips, reflecting on her shortcomings and wondering if she should also learn from them.
Ye Jingmo stared intently at Jiang Li's subtle movements, his throat bobbing involuntarily.
"Do you still want to continue?"
Jiang Li nodded vaguely in a daze, then shook her head frantically as if waking from a dream.
It's not good to indulge in lewdness in broad daylight.
To prevent Ye Jingmo from losing control, Jiang Li quickly changed the subject.
"Brother Mo, what should we do with the chickens in the cabin?" Jiang Li asked with great concern.
Although the cabin door was tightly closed, its airtightness was certainly far less than that of the villa, and she worried that the chickens might be infected by unknown bacteria in the thick fog.
Jiang Li was torn. She didn't dare to kill the chicken and eat it, fearing that it might cause her health problems.
But if we don't kill them and continue raising them, we worry that if the dense fog doesn't dissipate, the chickens will eventually get infected.
Whether to keep her or not is a headache for her.
“Kill them all, then we’ll contact Zhou Tian and give him half of the chickens as payment, so he can test whether the chicken meat is still edible.”
Ye Jingmo answered decisively.
The base must have instruments to test the meat quality, so this can be considered a win-win solution.
Upon hearing Ye Jingmo's words, Jiang Li suddenly realized what was happening. She patted her head in frustration and muttered to herself, "Why didn't I think of this method?"
Jiang Li turned on her watch and sent a message to Zhou Tian, informing him of their plan to sell chickens and asking him to reply when he had time.
With various diseases spreading and dense fog restricting people's travel, things must be incredibly busy on Sunday as well.
It was almost evening when Zhou finally had time to call Jiang Li.
"Jiang Li, are you sure you want to sell us these chickens?"
Zhou Tian's voice was tired, but you could also hear the excitement in it.
"To be precise, we'll sell half to you and keep the other half for ourselves."
You know that there may be bacteria and parasites in dense fog, so I'd like you to help me test whether the chicken is safe to eat.
We will give you an extra half pound of green vegetables if you cannot eat the chicken. This will be your reward.
And you'll need to pick it up yourself. Do you think that's feasible?
Jiang Li ate the oranges that Ye Jingmo had peeled while talking to Zhou Tian.
酸~
The sour taste of the oranges made Jiang Li's face contort in pain, but the saliva in her mouth made her unable to resist eating one.
"Okay, I'll have someone contact you tomorrow."
Zhou Tianli said succinctly.
This is a rare opportunity.
Others may not know, but Zhou Tian knows that the base's plantations and farms have been ravaged by this thick fog, with not even a tenth of the harvest achieved.
If someone else were to ask Zhou Tian to take in livestock right now, he would certainly be worried.
Zhou Tian knew exactly what kind of environment Jiang Li's family used to raise chickens.
Moreover, Zhou Tian has a mysterious trust in Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo; he's certain they won't frame him.
If all else fails, there's still half a pound of green vegetables, so the trip won't be a complete loss.
