Chapter 1152 Fill Your Belly Before Using Force
Chu Chen observed Ji Muqing's attitude, then turned to look at Chen Qingxuan.
The expression on his face seemed to say, "Am I too handsome? How come girls are willing to give themselves to me wherever I go?"
Chen Qingxuan turned his head to the side: You're kidding me. I have my own space, and I'm still popular.
"Miss Mu Qing, you flatter me. The important matter is not yet accomplished, so we should not discuss such things."
Mu Qing also realized that she had been too hasty; how could she have given herself to someone so easily?
Her face flushed red, and she changed the subject, saying, "Haha, Young Master Chu is right. In that case, Eighth Uncle, go and prepare a banquet. Tonight, we should properly entertain the two young masters who have come to rescue us."
After saying that, Mu Qing called over two girls dressed in hemp clothing.
Let them show Chu Chen and Chen Qingxuan the scenery here.
As night fell, the mud-brick houses in the city were brightly lit.
The torches on the wall illuminated the room, making it lively and cozy. On the dining table, a charred rabbit emitted a fragrant aroma, waiting for guests to enjoy it.
Elsewhere, several rough clay pots contained food that Chu Chen couldn't recognize.
"Young Master Chu, Young Master Chen, we are short of supplies here and have no delicacies to entertain you. Please forgive us."
After inviting Chu Chen and Chen Qingxuan to the table, Ji Muqing looked at the dishes on the table and said somewhat shyly.
Chu Chen smiled and said it was no problem, but he hesitated to pick up his chopsticks.
This thing does look really hard to eat, and I wonder if that rabbit is cooked or not.
So he kicked Chen Qingxuan next to him, signaling him to try.
Unexpectedly, Chen Qingxuan rolled his eyes at him, as if to say: Why the hell aren't you eating? Does that mean I'm not human?
Seeing that the two of them didn't touch their chopsticks, Ji Muqing wasn't angry. Instead, she picked up a greenish thing from a dark ceramic pot and put it into her own bowl.
Then, in front of Chu Chen and Chen Qingxuan, he started eating heartily.
Helpless, Chu Chen scooped up a little for himself and put it in his mouth. The sour taste reminded him of the bowl of wild vegetable porridge that Li Qinglian had given him when he first transmigrated to this world.
“Young Master Chu, the taste isn’t very good, but here we have a large population and little land, and we don’t have good varieties, so the rice yield is low. Therefore, food is scarce on ordinary days.”
"This table of food is something that ordinary people wouldn't even dare to dream of in their own homes."
Chu Chen could imagine that they were trapped in this small area and their supplies would be scarce, but he didn't expect them to be this scarce.
The next day, Chu Chen and Ji Muqing went to the fields. Looking around, all they could see were various kinds of vegetables, apart from the sparse rice.
These vegetables were things he had never seen before, and he guessed they were cultivated from wild vegetables.
Looking at everything before him, Chu Chen suddenly changed his mind. Rather than having them train soldiers to fight against cannibals, it would be better to improve their living standards first.
“Miss Mu Qing, I have an idea. Before we fight the cannibals, let’s develop our production first.”
"Production?"
Ji Muqing was somewhat confused by Chu Chen's meaning after listening.
“You select 100,000 able-bodied men, and I will have Chen Qingxuan train them for you. The rest will be used for city construction, planting, and manufacturing.”
“But Young Master Chu, we have also considered developing urban construction and planting and breeding.”
"But unfortunately, we simply don't have those kinds of..."
Ji Muqing stopped halfway through her sentence. "Right, doesn't Chu Chen have a space where he can take things out at will?"
There might be seeds or something like that inside.
Seeing Ji Muqing's suddenly enlightened expression, Chu Chen smiled slightly: "Miss Muqing, you can organize a team of a thousand people. Tomorrow, I will bring you everything you need."
That night, Chu Chen didn't have dinner with Ji Muqing. Instead, he cooked a special meal for Chen Qingxuan. After the two of them had a big meal, he used the spatial connection to return directly to Chu Tian Realm.
In the Heavenly Realm, Tiger Brother sat憨憨地 in front of Chu Chen.
"You mean, you want me to help you prepare seeds, poultry chicks, and large agricultural equipment?"
After two hundred years of development, Tianyu has become a modern society with advanced infrastructure. Therefore, its agriculture, manufacturing, and service industries are now almost indistinguishable from those of modern society.
Therefore, it's perfectly fine to ask Brother Tiger for help with this matter.
“That’s right, I’m going to do something big. Once I’ve accomplished it, we’ll have a second place to live.”
Tiger didn't ask any more questions, nodded, and led his men to wander around the city.
Soon after, tens of thousands of tons of supplies were piled up in the warehouse of Mashan Village, along with live animals such as cattle, sheep, pigs, horses, dogs, chickens, ducks, geese, and fish.
Chu Chen wasn't sure if these living creatures could pass through the passage.
If that's not possible, then the only option is to go out and capture those large wild animals, and then breed them.
In their own space, assembling a research team of artificial human beings is not a problem at all.
The next day, Chu Chen appeared out of thin air on the land in the middle of the basin, bringing with him countless supplies.
Looking at the bewildered little animals who had been suddenly transported to another world, Chu Chen smiled.
Ji Muqing and her entourage watched all of this with expressions of disbelief.
"Young Master Chu, this is... a rabbit? Why is it so small?"
You know, the rabbit they ate the night before last was no different from a pig, and it was something they had gone through a lot of trouble to hunt.
Unexpectedly, countless miniature animals appeared on the ground at that moment.
And it looks cute and delicious.
"Ah... this is a pig? This is actually a wolf, such a small wolf."
Seeing the surprised looks on Ji Muqing's and everyone else's faces, Chu Chen helplessly led them around, explaining to each of them one by one.
"This isn't a wolf, it's a dog, a very docile animal that doesn't eat people."
"This isn't a bird, it's a duck, this is a goose, and this is a chicken!"
"Ah... these animals don't seem aggressive at all, so they must be chickens."
Ji Muqing picked up a free-range chicken and said with an incredulous look on her face.
"Let's talk about chickens, not chickens, let's be civilized."
Chu Chen looked at the excited crowd and explained the science to them again and again.
"Why?"
Ji Muqing looked at the chicken in her arms, somewhat puzzled.
"Well, you'll understand when you grow up."
After saying that, Chu Chen led them to put down the small animals they were carrying and headed straight for the crop area.
"Young Master Chu, can all of these be grown and consumed by us?"
