Chapter 615: I have something to do with the Lord
Shui Ling was startled, and when she looked over, she saw something that looked like a human being in the basket.
An old man laughed and said: "This is called a human-faced fish. It is soft and sticky all over. It is usually used to make glue."
"Uh..." Shui Ling didn't expect that those ugly things were industrial supplies.
Shui Tianze said in surprise: "How come I haven't seen it before? It seems that there are many different species here."
Shui Ling nodded, that kind of fish was really weird, and he didn't even want to touch it.
It's pink, trembles when poked, and when it's not dead, it twists like a stunted embryo.
Shuiling rubbed the goosebumps on her arms: "I don't want to see this thing, I've lost my appetite."
Shui Tianze laughed, "I know, this thing won't be served to you on the dining table."
"Uh... Isn't that disgusting?" Shui Ling turned away angrily.
Shui Tianze laughed evilly.
Shui Ling was too lazy to pay attention to him and went directly to the mountain to put all the baby fish larvae into the freshwater lake. There were some small freshwater fish in the lake that were enough for them to eat.
However, for the sake of safety, Shui Ling surrounded the water outlet with a fine net to prevent them from being flushed out after the water channel was opened.
After taking care of this, Shui Ling went to check the soil-eating vines again, and there were some green yaya exposed, which were quite cute.
She couldn't help but ask: "Grandpa Si Shanguan, can you water it?"
Si Shanguan said: "If you want it to grow up quickly, water it, but are you not afraid that people outside will suspect you are a witch?"
"Not afraid." Shui Ling felt that he had the final say in his own territory, and they still expected him to lead them to a good life. Even if he had doubts in his heart, he would not say anything.
She took out diluted spiritual water and watered it, hoping it would grow mature as soon as possible.
After Shui Ling left, many seedlings appeared on the ground. These seedlings began to grow, and the soil on the ground began to sink to the naked eye.
Shuiling returned to her residence, and Bai Rui came to report the news.
"City Lord, we can only make a few boxes of pancakes, and there's no cassava left."
Shui Ling nodded, "I understand, these are the first batch, we will eat them ourselves, and the second batch will be sent to Pearl City."
"Yes." Bai Rui couldn't even think of refuting now, Shui Ling said whatever he said.
Shuiling asked: "Where is the cake? Didn't you bring it?"
"I'll get it right away." Bai Rui turned around and went out, and soon brought back a small bamboo basket with about ten palm-sized pancakes in it.
Shui Ling picked one up and looked at it. The surface was a little burnt, but it was quite fragrant when he took a bite. It just didn't taste good because there was bran inside.
"That's not bad. Just keep these for food rations. After all, Pearl City can't even afford this."
Bai Rui nodded, "It's totally fine to eat, but there's no cassava."
Shui Ling smiled and said: "There are still some, but we have to grind them into powder ourselves."
"Okay, okay." Bai Rui nodded happily.
However, Shui Ling thought of a question, then frowned and said, "No, from now on we will eat the same food as Pearl City. If you don't like the food, don't take it."
"Why?" Bai Rui asked confused.
Shui Ling whispered: "People's hearts are unpredictable. If someone shows off afterwards, it will cause trouble."
"It is understandable that I support my own people. There is no need to support the world."
Although it is Shui Ling's wish to feed everyone in the world, it cannot be achieved under the current situation. If you cannot do it, don't cause trouble.
Bai Rui frowned and nodded in thought for a moment, "Yes, no one can save everyone. There are many people who lost their loved ones in this natural disaster. When they are stable in the future, they will think that we eat so well and are so full.
, but their relatives are starving to death, and they will definitely hate us."
"When they spread the word and there are more people who hate us, our city will be in danger."
Shui Ling nodded in agreement. As expected of a scholar, he could understand everything at a glance.
Bai Rui said: "I know what to do, don't worry."
Shui Ling was really reassured about him, "I still have a lot of dried vegetables, dried pancakes, and dried vegetable porridge."
"When there are more victims, we will just make porridge with multigrain noodles and dried vegetables. Anyway, we are close to the sea, so we can eat whatever we touch."
"Yes, I understand." Bai Rui nodded.
After sending Bai Rui and Shui Ling away, they returned to their residence. In fact, there are a lot of seafood now. You can eat it yourself or dry it and send it to Pearl City.
Treating the symptoms rather than the root cause will only lead to more and more victims in Pearl City. Without diversion, Pearl City will not be able to withstand it no matter how much food it has.
When the time comes, riots will be another bloodshed, and Gong Qianyu will also be held responsible.
Si Shanguan said: "Girl, come in."
Shui Ling entered the space and sat down in the living room, "What's wrong?"
Si Shanguan said seriously: "Actually, your drought will last three years."
"What?" Shui Ling's heart skipped a beat. How many people would die in three years?
Si Shanguan sighed, "I shouldn't tell you this, but I really can't bear to watch so many people starve to death."
Shui Ling frowned and asked, "What can we do?"
Si Shanguan pondered for a moment and said: "You must plant medicinal materials here. After all, the drought is now and the medicinal materials outside will also dry up."
"Food can only be grown outside. Didn't you save a lot of spiritual water? Dilute it one to ten, then pour it into ten large tanks, and use this water to irrigate the fields."
"In this case... you can harvest potatoes once a month, which will make you full."
Shui Ling sighed, "Okay, I'll go to the back mountain to find a place to plant. There's a lot of space over there."
Si Shanguan said: "It's best to dry it in the sun, so you won't be suspicious when you take it out."
"I understand." Shui Ling nodded.
In fact, you can also grow vegetables, dry them in the sun, store them, and eat them without anyone getting suspicious. They will never know that these vegetables were grown in a month.
Shuiling thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any place where rice can be grown here?"
"You still want to plant rice? Forget it. During the drought period, you can only plant beans, sweet potatoes, potatoes, rice and wheat. Don't even think about it." Si Shanguan said.
Shui Ling was speechless, he was strangled to death before he even started.
"Okay, I'll go explore the map tomorrow."
"Well... you can throw that myna outside. It steals a lot of food, and its IQ is now equivalent to that of a ten-year-old child."
"You let it go explore the map and then come back and draw it for you."
Shui Ling asked in surprise: "Is there such a thing? Then wouldn't other birds have to be smart when they come in to eat something?"
Si Shanguan laughed for a while and then said: "Those eight were of bad character. They deceived your ginseng king and ate its seeds."
"..." Shui Ling was speechless. The ginseng king who had lived for so many years could actually be deceived by a bird.
She got up and walked outside, shouting: "Myna."
