Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xia Ju was pleased. Its going well.

Du Yue could not help but laugh with her. Xia Ju was the one she was most familiar with. Xia Ju took out a small box that was filled with dense gra.s.s seeds. Sow them. In less than seven days, theyll grow into a large gra.s.sland.

The timing is perfect! Du Yue smiled meaningfully. We just found you a customer!

Xia Ju was confused. A customer? What customer? Du Yue smiled but did not answer her. At this moment, the group of people rode back. The last two horses were pulling a carriage made of wooden frames. There were two other people sitting in the carriage. Between the two of them stood a sheep.

The sheep was not very big. It should still be a young lamb.

The man in the lead got off his horse and took two steps toward the fence. My name is Lu Donglai. I brought the sheep and the scale. We can weigh it on the spot. When Lu Donglai opened his mouth, the people who had followed him had already taken the sheep and the scale out of the car.

He Xing went forward to check the scale and the sheep. After confirming that there was no problem, he nodded. No problem, weigh it!

The sheep was put on the scale, and the weight was a little more than 66 catties.

According to the agreement, six catties of mutton could be exchanged for one catty of salt. This sheep could be exchanged for more than n catties of salt. The lively sheep could still grow, so He Xing made the decision to give them 12 catties of salt. Before these people came back, Du Yue had already taken the salt out of the s.p.a.ce and placed it in the car. He Xing turned around and went back to the car. Soon, he came out with a bag. There were 12 bags of salt inside.

The salt was packaged before the apocalypse, and the weight of each bag was the same. It was very convenient to count the weight. Lu Donglai opened one of the bags of salt and tasted it with the people beside him. After confirming that there was no problem with the salt, Lu Donglai ordered the people behind him to carry the bags into the car. Lu Donglai was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he gave Du Yue and the others a detailed explanation of how to raise sheep and other things to take note of.

Du Yues tablet had a lot of videos about breeding, so even if Lu Donglai did not tell them anything today, she was confident that she could raise the sheep well. However, she knew that Lu Donglai had good intentions, so she still listened to him seriously. After giving instructions on raising sheep, Lu Donglai could not help but ask, Why did you come all the way here to live? Isnt the first base doing well?

Other than a little too many bugs, everything else is fine.

When Lu Donglai heard Du Yues reply, he smiled. Ive been there before. There were indeed too many bugs, but fortunately, they didnt taste bad! Although we have cows and sheep, we cant eat them as we please. The bugs are annoying, but they also provide a source of protein!

Du Yue smiled. If Donglai had to eat bugs every day and live on them, he probably would not be able to say this. Seeing that Du Yue and the other two had no intention of continuing the conversation, Lu Donglai tactfully stopped. We wont disturb you anymore. If you need anything in the future, you can drive north for about an hour. Thats where were stationed. Farewell!

Looking at Lu Donglais back as he left, Du Yue came to her senses. So they dont live in the base either. Why not?

The three of them wanted to stay away from the crowd, but what about Lu Donglai and the others? Was it because this place was vast and spa.r.s.ely populated, and living outside was no different from living in the base? Was it better to live outside the base than inside? Although she did not know the real reason, Du Yue did not delve into it. She quickly threw this question to the back of her mind. Compared to those things that had nothing to do with her, it was better to think about how to settle this sheep in front of her. Xia Ju was staring at the sheep from head to toe. After sizing it up, she asked Du Yue, Is this the customer you mentioned?

Thats right, this is it! Du Yue nodded. The gra.s.s that youll plant can feed it. Isnt it your customer?

Xia Ju felt that what she said made sense. Youre right! Its a waste to let the gra.s.s just grow. Its better to let this sheep eat it! When it grows up, well let it give birth to babies for us. Then, well let them eat until theyre chubby. When the time comes, we can eat mutton whenever we want!

Before the gra.s.s seeds were scattered, Xia Ju already imagined the scene of roasting a whole lamb..
