Reborn: I Stock Up and Bully the Trash to Dominate the Apocalypse

Zhong Tiyun ate a piece of meat between a large steamed bun and said, "Today, Director Wu said that it was too hard for your second uncle and I to take care of the greenhouse of more than 600 square meters, so he was going to recruit two more people to help. So I recommended your third aunt. Your third aunt has been helping with the vegetable garden at home just like me. Director Wu said he would consider it. But for the other candidate, he wanted his wife to come."

Zhong Tiyun lowered her voice and said, "Besides the fact that the property management pays us a good salary, he probably also wants his wife to learn how to plant."

Nowadays, except for the elderly, people in cities are unfamiliar with planting. Even those who can plant vegetables in pots at home are not professional.

"I just don't know if my third sister is willing. She has children at home!" Zhou Jianghai asked.

"Why wouldn't she? The other day I went to her house to visit Chunchun, and she said she envied me for having a job. Qianqian is taking care of the kids at home, so she can just lend a hand. Why not come out and earn some money for the family?"

"That's true." Zhou Jianghai said, "When my third sister and her family first came to our community, they were practically naked. I was worried about how we would feed such a large family in the apocalypse!"

We can't always rely on our own support.

"But now his family's Xue Dong is good at archery and works at the community gate. My third sister works in the vegetable greenhouse like you do. If they can find some supplies from time to time, they won't have to worry about their lives."

"Of course we don't have to worry about it. Da Tao and Da Dong are both good kids. It's just that their father used to restrict their hands and feet. He didn't support anything they wanted to do, which delayed the children's development. Now, the two brothers are working together to live a harmonious life. Their father should be able to rest in peace in the grave..."

What Zhong Tiyun didn’t say was that the father’s death was actually good for the whole family.

She felt bad saying that about someone who had died in an accident, so she just complained in her heart.

How could the other people at the table not understand her implied meaning? They looked at each other, lowered their heads in tacit understanding, and ate their food fiercely.

"Dad, you cooked this stew so well. It's so soft and fragrant. The pork belly slices are almost rotten. And the vermicelli is so smooth and soft, it's the best." Zhou Shuwan praised.

Zhou Jianghai said proudly, "I learned this from your grandfather. Although he didn't achieve much when he was alive, people in the surrounding villages would ask him to help make big pots of stew and steam rice in large iron pots whenever there was a wedding or funeral. Not only was the stew delicious, but the rice cooked over a firewood stove was so crispy that each grain was distinct, and there was even a layer of rice crust at the bottom of the pot. Every day I looked forward to him coming home and bringing me some of the rice crust."

The rice steamed in today's electric rice cookers lacks the rich aroma of firewood compared to the rice cooked in the big iron pots at that time.

Mu Mu was busy eating, and when he heard this, he said quickly: "Dad, I want to eat rice crust too."

Zhou Jianghai then laughed and scolded, "You have a sharp tongue, kid. The harder something is to make, the more you want to eat it. There's no rice crust left to eat these days! Just be thankful for a bowl of white rice."

Mu Mu quietly stuck out her tongue, buried her little head in the bowl and didn't look up again.

On the third day, Zhong Tiyun brought back the news that the property management company had agreed to let Third Aunt go to work, but in addition to Director Wu's wife, another property management company's wife also went.

There are five of us taking care of the vegetable greenhouse and learning the planting techniques from Uncle Zhong at the same time.

Uncle Zhong didn't think of keeping his knowledge to himself. Food is the most important thing for people, so he generously shared all the planting techniques he knew.

There are many people in the community who grow their own vegetables. They all know that Uncle Zhong is good at growing vegetables, so they come to ask him. He tells them the problems and tips one by one. In a short time, his reputation in the community has improved a lot.

Director Wu delivered 30 kilograms of vegetables directly to the mayor's office.

Mayor Lu listened carefully to his report on the construction process of the community's vegetable greenhouse, expressed great appreciation, and said that he would send people to Dongyuan Community as soon as possible to learn hydroponic technology.

The entire J city is now seriously lacking in vitamins, so growing vegetables is imperative.

Just when everything was getting on track, the cruise ship was attacked.

At this time, more than two months had passed since the cruise ship started transporting water, and the potatoes in the vegetable greenhouse were about to grow.

The Zhou family’s sweet potatoes had been harvested long ago.

The water protection team was on alert every day, but as time went on, all the passing ships would stay away when they saw the huge cruise ship passing by, and everyone gradually relaxed their vigilance.

After the Dongyuan community successfully planted vegetables in greenhouses, other communities and resettlement sites sent people to the Dongyuan community to learn, and then looked for talents good at planting in their own communities to learn how to build vegetable greenhouses.

Hydroponics can only meet the temporary need for vegetables, but the most important thing to solve the problem of food is to grow staple food.

Therefore, soil is needed in every community.

The service hall arranged for the communities in need to send people to board the cruise ship and go to Jiyun Mountain to transport soil in order.

But it was this behavior that brought unexpected disaster to the cruise ship.

On the return journey that day, everything was going smoothly, but when the cruise ship passed a forest, several motorboats and assault boats suddenly rushed out from the woods. Everyone on the boat took hot weapons and threw tear gas at the boat.

Qi Mingyu noticed something was wrong at the first moment, shouted a warning, and quickly took out his pistol to fight back.

Zhou Shuwan took out a mask from his backpack, handed one to Qi Mingyu, and held one for himself, hiding aside to fight back.

Since it has been brewing for more than two months, this attack is not a simple battle between small fish and shrimps.

In addition to the ships rushing towards the front, which attracted most of the firepower, there were ships rushing towards the cruise ship from all directions.

Pistols, bows and arrows, and tear gas were used one after another.

Perhaps out of consideration for the cruise ship, the other party did not use more lethal weapons or fire.

Apart from the initial panic, the members of the water protection team quickly formed a formation according to their training and fought back.

Team leader Du took a pistol and rushed in another direction.

The people who were carrying the soil and the workers on the boat all hid in the corner with their heads in their hands.

Therefore, no one expected that there would be spies from the other side on the cruise ship.

Two young men from the community pretended to be nervous and huddled there. After looking at each other, they suddenly stood up and attacked the water protection team member closest to them.

Caught off guard, the man was punched from behind and thrown into the water, and the gun in his hand was snatched away at the same time.

The spy took a pistol and fired several shots at the water protection team who were fighting back against them with their backs.

Screams rang out one after another, and the tear gas mist affected the vision.

But Qi Mingyu and Zhou Shuwan felt something was wrong at the first moment.

Qi Mingyu called out, "Wanwan, behind me!"

Zhou Shuwan hid behind him, and both of them protected each other's backs.

Their advantage over other members of the water protection team is that they both put on oxygen masks early on, so tear gas has no effect on them.
