Chapter 26 The soil in other places cannot grow anything
Spending 50 star coins to buy some clothes, and another 7 star coins to take a bath and wash clothes. Clean and refreshed, Shen Lu returned to the rental house again.
Stepping into the afterglow of the sun, Shen Lu brought a bowl of cold radish skin and knocked on Granny Jin’s door.
"Little deer?" Granny Jin's nose twitched, her eyes fell on her hands, with a look of helplessness on her face, "Didn't I say you don't need to bring me food."
All year round. Living alone, Grandma Jin was not only happy but also strongly unaccustomed to Shen Lu's approach.
She knew that Shen Lu would not always be in the 17th Street District. Since he could not stay here for a long time, why should he interact with her more.
When she leaves, she will be left a sad old woman.
“I’m not giving it away, but I want you to help me taste it.” Shen Lu said with a smile, “There will be a lot of radish skin left after peeling radishes every day. I feel it’s a pity to throw them away. I want to make some pickles. I don’t know if everyone likes it or not.”
Grandma Jin opened the door and let Shen Lu in.
She is a little girl after all. She does not understand the dangers of society. She is not afraid of being stared at when she is walking around with a bowl of food.
To her, radish skin is just a side dish made from leftovers, but to most people in the 17th neighborhood, it is a rare delicacy.
After all, most people here can’t even drink the earthy nutrient solution and live on eating insect cakes every day.
“You still have to be more careful.” Grandma Jin had to remind Shen Lu, “Now that you push so much food out to set up a stall every day, there must be a lot of people trying to figure you out.”
Shen Lu also knew this, so she invited Mr. Wang, one to let him move things, and the other to give some deterrent to those who were ready to take action.
Although she didn’t know if it would be useful.
But for the time being, except for that night, no one with a bad eye will come to cause trouble.
"I will pay attention." Shen Lu nodded and saw a small black round cake on the table, with half a glass of water next to it.
“Is this your dinner?”
Grandma Jin hummed and sat down at the table, “Everyone who lives here eats this.”
She is no exception.
"What is this?" Neither Shen Lu nor the original owner had seen this.
"Insect cakes." Granny Jin looked at her with cloudy eyes, "Curious?"
Shen Lu sat opposite Granny Jin and could vaguely smell the smell of insect cakes, which was not good. Smell, there is a... fishy smell.
“I’m not particularly curious.” Shen Lu was afraid that Granny Jin would share it with her enthusiastically, “How about you try the cold radish skin I made?”
Grandma Jin said yes.
After marinating for three or four hours, the soy sauce has dyed the white radish skin brown, and is dotted with red spicy seeds. The smell is attractive and the color is very rich.
Just by looking at it, you can tell how delicious it is.
Grandma Jin directly pinched a piece and put it into her mouth. The first thing she tasted was spicy, then sour. The thick salty aroma of soy sauce and the crispy sweetness of radish skin were intertwined, causing the mouth to quickly secrete a large amount of liquid.
It’s so delicious.
Grandma Jin sighed in her heart. At this time, she really wanted to have a bowl of white porridge. Just this mouthful of cold radish skin, even the gods would not change it.
Shen Lu supported his chin with both hands and tilted his head to stare at Granny Jin. Seeing that she had closed her eyes and not spoken for a long time, she asked with some anxiety: "Grandma Jin, is it delicious?"
It shouldn't taste bad, right?
Shen Lu didn’t taste it himself, but the smell should be good.
However, there are thousands of people with different tastes, and some people love the same thing crazily, while others hate it to the core. Shen Lu is annoyed that he should first ask Grandma Jin if she likes to eat radish skins.
“It’s delicious.” Granny Jin opened her eyes, her smile full of nostalgia, “When I was very young, I ate cold radish skin with white porridge in the morning.”
"It was different here before, right?"
Grandma Jin hummed, "Suddenly it changed one day."
This topic seemed a bit heavy to talk about, so Grandma Jin changed the subject. "Your radish skin is delicious. If you sell it, it will definitely be very popular."
Even the radish skin that has not been seasoned will be popular.
Shen Lu did not sit for a long time. He chatted with Granny Jin for more than ten minutes and then returned to his room.
It was time for her to make dinner for herself and Fucheng.
After eating and drinking, Shen Lu sat on the sofa and counted his money. What he earned today was similar to yesterday. After all, the amount of ingredients was the same.
[Host, a friendly reminder, the time for the small materials stored in the temporary backpack is about to expire~]
Shen Lu pouted and rented a warehouse for 20 popularity points.
【Ding! Virtual warehouse (1) has been unlocked, with an area of 50 square meters. The first lease is 20 popularity points. You only need to renew the lease with 5 popularity points next month~]
Shen Lu frowned: "Not once Buy it out?”
[No. 】
There is no way not to spend this kind of popularity, but the cost is not big, so it is acceptable.
[Host, today’s lottery ticket has not been used yet. 】
Shen Lu: “Save it and smoke it tomorrow night.”
She was a little tired and wanted to sleep.
"Let's get off work early tomorrow, and we have to buy medicine." Shen Lu made plans for tomorrow, "If you don't delay too long at the garbage dump in the morning, you won't have time to take a shower."
The girl yawned, hesitated for a while, and climbed into bed.
After sleeping in the bed, she really didn’t want to sleep on the sofa.
The bed board is hard, but my waist does not hurt when I sleep on it.
"Fucheng, you don't have any objections, right?" Shen Lu whispered, "It's okay if you have any objections. You can't kick me out anyway, and this is the house I rent."
< br>Fucheng:...
He really couldn't drive Shen Lu away, and he couldn't bear it.
He could "see" how busy Shen Lu was every day, but he could not do anything to help her except lying down.
Fucheng was a little frustrated, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do.
Waiting, patience, and expectation are the only things he can do.
The room was quiet, and Shen Lu's breathing quickly became deep and rhythmic.
In the dream, she lived in a spacious and bright villa, with ten servants waiting on her, and she lived a noble life with her clothes on her back and food on her hands.
In addition, there are five handsome boys with different styles surrounding her.
Wow, this dream was so wonderful that she felt a little disappointed when she woke up.
After clearing his mind, Shen Lu got up.
After washing, Shen Lu looked at the bucket of wastewater and fell into deep thought.
What can we use this water for?
It's a pity that it fell down. Should I sell it again?
When Shen Lu thought that some people might handle the scene of drinking water, he dismissed the idea.
How about... growing vegetables?
As soon as this idea came out, Shen Lu felt that he might be a little crazy.
Where is there suitable soil for her to grow vegetables?
When he went out to the No. 3 garbage dump, no matter what the harvest was, Shen Lu only picked it up for two hours before returning home.
At the street corner, someone threw a flower pot made of iron sheets, with half a pot of black and red soil inside.
Shen Lu couldn't help but pick it up. A window above suddenly opened and a head stuck out.
"It's useless if you pick it up. Except for the soil cultivated by the group of people in the research institute, nothing can be grown in the soil elsewhere." (End of Chapter)
