Chapter 179 Mushrooms
The family discussed their meal and quickly decided to give only the mother spawn of oyster mushrooms to the base.
It's not that they're selfish, it's just that they've been using Apocalypse for several years now.
No one could produce so many different kinds of mushrooms all at once.
Even the base can't produce them. If Bai Tangcould just bring out so many kinds of mushroomsand spawns...
This is clearly a message to the base: something's wrong with me, come and arrest me.
That would be suicidal, so they just used one of the most common oyster mushrooms, Spawn.
After the meal, Bai Tang took out some spawnfrom his spatial storage.
Then they gave Spawn a rather worn-out package.
That's what Bai Tang's little house was used for.
Because Bai Tang's space has a preservation function, they habitually put some things there to age.
After all, Apocalypse has been around for several years now, and there's hardly anything new to it.
Moreover, they now mostly travel on foot or by bicycle within the base.
Because the base's gasoline reserves have been largely depleted.
Therefore, the base reasonably increased the relevant prices and also limited the number of purchases per person.
Bai Tang and his family now choose to walk or stay home.
During the polar night, few people are willing to leave the base without prior notification.
Because if anything happens outside the base, their chances of dying are 100%.
So everyone was very careful with their lives, and no one thought about going outside the base.
The base has also suspended its outward missions, and now everyone at Shengshi Base is staying inside the base.
Gu Yanxu, Bai Tang, and Lin Feng went out again, carrying distressed oyster mushrooms.
On their way to the Base Administration Center, they encountered many people who were also going to the Base Administration Center.
Those people were also in groups, and the bags they were carrying were probably spawnmushrooms.
However, Bai Tang and his group did not go up to ask, because in the current polar nightsituation, they needed to be even more cautious.
Several groups of people headed toward the Administration Center, but they all kept a distance between each other.
Lin Fan said, "Anyone who didn't know better would think I was a thief."
Bai Tang told them, "That's normal. In this situation, no one dares to get too close to someone they don't know."
They arrived at their destination shortly after walking, where there were other people carryingspawns.
The Administration Center lobby is guarded by a Patrol Team to ensure the Base Center operates normally.
Furthermore, the lobby of the Base Administration Center is brightly lit.
Several groups of people took their spawns to the counter for the experts to inspect.
Soon it was Bai Tang's turn, and after the experts examined their spawns, they said:
" The spawns that everyone brought were all quite good; most of them were capable of breeding."
We'll accept it. The payment will be distributed to everyone later.
Soon the experts took the spawns back to the Research Institute to study them.
They aim to breed more Spawn and achieve extensive coverage of the base.
This way, the base won't be troubled by food problems.
Even if these mushrooms ca n't completely solve the food problem, they can at least reduce food stress to some extent.
Because everyone brought a variety of mushrooms and spawns, they only verified whether they were normal spawns.
There wasn't time to verify the age of the spawn.
After the experts left, Chen Weiliang stood up from the side and said:
"We will issue contribution points to everyone, and you can also reserve the qualification to cultivate mushrooms in advance."
Because it passes through our Research InstituteAn improvement to Crop Experts.
The spawns that everyone brings will definitely grow better.
So we also distribute spawns to everyone at our base.
"You and your group can come and collect it earlier; there's no need to queue."
Chen Weiliang's words inspired everyone to dedicate themselves even more wholeheartedly to the base.
Because the base has the people in its heart, the people will naturally have the base in their hearts.
The two complement each other and are indispensable.
However, these things meant nothing to Bai Tang and his group.
Bai Tang was quite concerned about Artificial Sun's situation, but with so many people around, she didn't ask Chen Weiliang.
Soon the crowd in the Administration Centerlobby gradually dispersed.
Bai Tang and Lin Feng naturally dispersed and walked home.
As they walked, the streetlights, emitting white or pale yellow light, illuminated their path.
Walking in the light, they quickly returned home.
When Bai Tang got home, he looked at the wild rabbits in the cage in the yard.
Polar night doesn't seem to have had any effect on them.
They continue to eat and drink as usual, and their reproduction rate remains high.
Bai Tang's family slaughters a batch of rabbits every few months and pickles them.
Otherwise, given the rabbits' reproductive capacity, they would have had too many to keep in their yard long ago.
Bai Tang said, "Look, haven't those little rabbits grown bigger again?"
Lin Fan peered through the light in the yard and said, "Sister-in-law, this Wild Rabbit is only so-so in size."
At this moment, Gu Yanxu said from the side, "I understand."
Bai Jiyang asked him, "Brother-in-law, what do you know? How come we don't understand?"
Gu Yanxu looked at Bai Tang: "Your sister wants to eat spicy food, let's make spicy rabbit headtonight."
These rabbits are still small, perfect for spicy rabbit head, and the meat is especially tender.
After saying that, Gu Yanxu walked to the cage and prepared to catch a few of them.
Lin Feng and the others followed and helped catch the rabbits.
Their family is large, and they use several rabbits for each rabbit meal.
What's more, making spicy rabbit heads at night is even more wasteful of rabbits.
They were busy catching rabbits when Bai Tangwalked into the living room.
Mu Mu was keeping Grandpa Gu and the others company to keep them entertained, Bai Tangsaid:
"Tonight we're having spicy rabbit head and rabbit meat."
Is there anything else you'd like to eat? Since we've already started cooking, let them prepare it all.
Grandpa Gu said, "None of us have any particular food in mind. We'll eat whatever you make. We're not picky eaters."
Mu Mu also said, "I believe that everything you cook will taste delicious."
Bai Tang smiled and shook his head, saying, "Mu Mu, tell the truth."
We won't laugh at you, but did you only try so hard to transform into human form so you could be eaten?
Mu Mu also played along with Bai Tang, feigning surprise:
"How did you know? I just love your cooking."
The two of them sang back and forth, makingGrandpa Gu laugh non-stop.
Then Bai Tang went to help in the kitchen. Their kitchen is quite large, so it can accommodate so many people.
Gu Yanxu's cooking skills became increasingly proficient, and he quickly prepared one dish after another, which Lin Fan and the others then served out.
As for the staple food, just eat what's already prepared, since there's no need to steam the buns again.
They still have quite a few sweet potato leaf buns left over from before.
During the meal, Grandpa Gu said, "Should we start growing some mushrooms?"
We didn't get to eat many sweet potatoesbefore, but now that we're growing mushrooms at home, we should be able to enjoy them!
Grandpa Gu was determined to taste what they grew themselves.
