Chapter 363: Cheap
Mysterious base.
"Did he really say that?"
Sun Ye angrily punched the seat and stood up, pacing back and forth irritably.
The half-zombie in black was stuck there like a log underneath, showing no reaction to his emotional fluctuations.
"I'm sure he won't do anything, so leave her alone."
Sun Ye vowed not to hand over the plant in his hand to Zhuang Chen. Such a precious thing would not be found in a short while.
farm.
"Zhuangda, do you think he will agree to exchange his granddaughter?"
"Won't."
Zhuang Chen's words with such certainty made everyone's pupils widen in shock.
Several people looked over and asked Zhuang Chen carefully.
"Just do your own thing during this time."
Zhuang Chen stood up and walked away, arriving at the place where Sun Yue was imprisoned.
"Are you sure you will help me destroy your grandfather's power?"
"I have only one request, don't take his life."
Sun Yue lowered her head and gritted her teeth with great determination, and the tears she held back ran hotly through her cheeks.
His body was shaking uncontrollably, and his expression was full of pain.
"I promise you."
Zhuang Chen turned his head away from her sad expression, responded in a low voice and turned to leave.
"Zhuang Da, what should we do now?"
"In order to get things done, we'll send her back in a few days."
As Zhuang Chen spoke, he crossed Cen Gong's body and walked leisurely in the countryside.
"How many plants are missing from the system now?"
[The host’s current progress is 29/50. 】
Zhuang Chen looked into the distance and felt a strong sense of oppression in his heart, which made him feel breathless.
"Looks like I have to speed up the process."
Zhuang Chen walked around the field, then returned to the warehouse, took out a hoe and fertilizer and walked into the field.
Plant all the plants you have.
“We have to dig again.”
The basis for planting vegetable seedlings is to dig out the soil to make it loose and porous and have good drainage properties.
Zhuang Chen resignedly waved his hoe and dug out the area.
Skillfully, his tiger's mouth was covered with thick calluses, in these biting cold weather.
Zhuang Chen's digging action caused sweat to form on his back.
He wiped the fine sweat on his forehead and smoothed out the groove.
Zhuang Chen knelt down and planted the seeds carefully because they had already sprouted.
There is no need to cover it with a sunshade net. As long as the sun can shine through, there won't be much of a problem.
"If you wait for a while, I believe you will be rewarded."
Zhuang Chen felt a little tired all over, and he had been planting the plants in his hands into the soil non-stop during this period.
He tried his best to complete the system's tasks. Running back and forth like this made him feel a little bit of back pain.
He thumped his waist and stood up, picking up tools to loosen the next piece of soil.
But unexpectedly, anxious voices sounded in the distance.
"Zhuang Da, Zhuang Da..."
Seeing Qiu Yinyin running all the way over, he put his hands to his mouth and called his name loudly like a trumpet.
Zhuang Chen immediately stood up and walked towards her, thinking something big had happened?
"What's going on? Are you so anxious?"
"Zhu Zhengju is here."
Zhuang Chen frowned slightly and looked at the front yard of the farm. He knew that Zhu Zhengju would always ask for something when he came.
"You help me pack up all the tools in the field. I'll go over first to see why he came to me?"
After Zhuang Chen gave her instructions, he turned around and left.
"What kind of wind brings you here?"
Zhu Zhengju sat uneasily holding tea to relieve his tension.
When Zhuang Chen's voice sounded in his ears, he sat up in shock and looked at Zhuang Chen.
"You are finally here. I feel like my days here are like years."
"What kind of thing is this? Does Zhu Zhengju have such emotions?"
Zhuang Chen joked on the side.
Zhu Zhengju shook his head awkwardly and smiled, then slowly explained the purpose of his coming here.
"Isn't it almost winter? A lot of resources have been destroyed in the last days.
If things like cotton are not manufactured as soon as possible, it may be difficult for the surviving humans to survive this winter. "
Zhu Zhengju's face was full of anxiety, and the thought of the instructions given to him from above made him almost breathless.
Fortunately, the people around him gave him some advice, so he hurriedly found Zhuang Chen.
Zhuang Chen also fell into deep thought.
This was indeed an area he had overlooked, probably because he had a large number of cotton-padded clothes in his farm.
That's why he didn't consider such a problem. He crossed his chest with one hand and polished his smooth chin with one hand.
I was pacing back and forth uneasily, thinking about how to spend it.
"The top priority now is that you need to find cotton seeds, otherwise we are really in a dilemma."
Zhu Zhengju explained the recent situation to Zhuang Chen clearly because of winter.
The cold made most people go to their heads and they rioted in order to survive.
Searching everywhere makes the people miserable and makes the people at the top anxious and have a headache.
"Even if we open our warehouse to help the people below, it's not enough. This is a drop in the bucket."
"I already know about this situation. Why don't you go back first and I'll see if I can do it?"
Zhuang Chen comforted him softly and watched him leave.
He found Zhou Dong and Lin Yi.
"Something happened during this period. Do you have any news here?"
Zhuang Chen sat on top and drank a cup of hot tea to warm himself up, and asked them in a low voice.
"Many forces have plundered certain resources everywhere, because they need manpower to build new cities.
They gave them cotton clothes as an excuse to let them be free labor."
"..."
They told Zhuang Chen all the news they got, and the more Zhuang Chen listened, the more he frowned.
His eyebrows were almost twisted into a knot, what he didn't expect was.
In the end times, manpower is so cheap in their eyes.
Just a cotton coat can instruct them at will.
"Some are even more than that. Those with superpowers are so low and let them do whatever they want."
Lin Yi raised his head carefully, looked at the expression on Zhuang Chen's face, and reported to him stutteringly.
His face was filled with grief.
"If this continues, those forces will probably dominate the world.
The people living at the bottom will have no dignity at all."
As Zhou Dong spoke, the scene he saw flashed through his mind.
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth in anger, and told Zhuang Chen what he saw word by word.
