Chapter 368: Germination
"You humans are too complicated, aren't you? Just a cotton coat can control them at will.
On their way back, Zhuang Chen and Huazhi Shu encountered newly-established cities using a cotton coat to guide them.
When Zhuang Chen saw this situation, his face was filled with sorrow and sorrow.
Hear Huazhishu’s complaints.
He squinted his eyes and glared at it.
"That's because your life is too comfortable and you don't know the cruelty of the end of the world."
Zhuang Chen spoke angrily and looked at the place where the quarrel was taking place.
The number of people wearing thin clothes was so huge that he couldn't control it at all.
What he wants to do now is to use the power of the people above to rescue them all.
Try to get through this winter as much as possible. As time goes by, everything will be easier to do.
"Everything needs a carrot and a pit. It's obviously not enough to rely on my own strength."
"With your current intelligence and resources, it is not impossible to save these humans."
Zhuang Chen heard Huazhi Shu's words but did not reply to him.
In his heart, he has not yet thought about expanding his power to other cities.
Zhuang Chen and Huazhi Shu hurried back to the farm. Along the way, they saw too much cruelty about the end of the world.
And the cruelty of those rapid changes.
"Where is Cen Gong?"
After Zhuang Chen rushed to the farm without stopping, the first person he saw was Qi Yan.
He opened his mouth to ask about Cen Gong's whereabouts, and Qi Yan thought something big had happened.
Without enough time to say anything, she pointed in the direction of Cen Gong with her finger and walked over immediately.
"Did something happen that made you so angry?"
"It takes Cen Gong to do it."
Qi Yan also heard what was happening in the clouds, so he could only follow Zhuang Chen and take him to find Cen Gong.
Cen Gong, who was watering the soil, saw Zhuang Chen's anxious look from a distance.
He quickly wiped his hands on his clothes and walked towards them with small steps.
"You are so anxious, what happened?"
"I found cotton seeds, but I need you to copy them as soon as possible and plant them immediately."
Cen Gong saw a few small, quiet seeds lying in Zhuang Chen's outstretched palm.
He stretched out his trembling hands full of joy and carefully touched their surfaces.
Zhuang Chen nodded solemnly, he knew what this matter meant to everyone.
"Is there a requirement for the number of cotton seeds?"
"The demand for cotton is too huge, so you have to work hard during this period."
Zhuang Chen walked over and patted his shoulder heavily. There was still a long way to go.
Cen Gong looked solemnly at the seemingly ordinary seed in his hand.
He turned and left here.
Zhuang Chen exhaled a heavy breath and sat on the steps like a deflated ball.
Zhuang Chen looked at the people in the farm who were busy working on their own, and he took out the hoe from the warehouse.
"There is still a large area of land that has not been cleared, otherwise the seeds found later will not be planted in time."
He came to a piece of flat and gravel-covered soil, and swung his hoe to dig it loose.
"There is a woman outside Zhuangda looking for you."
Hearing Qi Yan's voice, Zhuang Chen straightened up and stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"Who comes to the farm to find me at this time?"
Zhuang Chen put away the tools he brought and put them in the warehouse.
When I walked to the front yard of the farm, I saw who was coming here.
"Why are you here?"
"I received a message and heard that you asked me to open the safe zone and let those people in?"
"What's the problem?"
“But my safe zone is not very big, and the resources are limited.
What should I do if I let them in? "
Yuan Lin spoke excitedly in front of Zhuang Chen, her frowning brows full of confusion about Zhuang Chen.
"Can't you look further ahead? Naturally, I will be here to help you with resources.
If we cross this hurdle, we can turn them into our own power.
Don’t you understand that you can’t trap a wolf if you are reluctant to let go of your children? "
After hearing Zhuang Chen's words, she still felt a little uneasy.
She had long heard that Zhuang Chen seemed to be unable to think of a way to spend this winter.
There was a trace of worry in her heart.
Zhuang Chen looked at her eyes moving left and right, not daring to look at him at all.
Naturally, he could understand what she was thinking.
“Since I dare to make this guarantee, then I will definitely do it.
Get rid of your thoughts, everything is not a problem. "
He said these words directly and forcefully, then turned and left.
No matter what the look on her face is?
"Zhuang Da, aren't you afraid that she won't trust us and will turn around and betray you?"
“Don’t doubt the people you doubt, and don’t doubt the people you employ.
If she does this, it only shows that she has no vision. "
Zhuang Chen was not worried that they had the idea of betraying him.
He returned to the piece of land he had just dug, and the ravines inside had been properly taken care of.
"Even if the land is full of gravel, it should be perfect for planting corn."
Zhuang Chen came to his pool and picked up a bucket of water, and walked to the side of the gravel land.
He dug some soft soil and mixed it with water to make mud.
He kneaded a mud ball with his hands and pressed a deep hole with his thumb.
He pressed the corn seeds into the mud ball and stuffed it with plant ash.
He repeated this action, and soon he planted all the corn in his hand.
"Wait a few days and the germination will be successful."
Zhuang Chen complained in a low voice, arranging the mud balls in the soil in an orderly manner.
"Zhuang Da!"
Zhuang Chen heard Qiu Yinyin's voice when he finished doing this. She looked embarrassed.
"What happened?"
Qiu Yinyin opened her mouth, hesitated and stammered for a long time without saying anything.
Under Zhuang Chen's urging, she spoke her words.
"Zhuang Da, can you go see Ceng Gong? He has been shutting himself in the room since you came back, copying cotton seeds.
His face is pale.
If he continues like this, I'm afraid his body will not be able to bear it."
Qiu Yinyin's nose was sore, and tears fell down her cheeks.
Zhuang Chen took a breath of cold air, blaming himself for not explaining it clearly, which made him so involved.
"Don't worry, I'll go over and ask him to stop for a while."
He walked over and patted Qiu Yinyin's shoulder to calm her down.
Zhuang Chen came to Ceng Gong's room and was completely shocked when he saw his appearance through the window.
