Chapter 183 Return...The Temptation of Pot Meat

Many people couldn't help sniffing several times, and their mouths were full of tears.

"Stir-fried dishes again, no, are the people in the Star Spirit Camp eating so well? They are eating stir-fried dishes again!" One person couldn't help but say.

Everyone around nodded.

"Yes, it's a bit too luxurious to eat stir-fried dishes at this time!"

"How do they preserve the ingredients? In such hot weather, there are still fresh vegetables and meat to eat?"

"This fragrance... It's very similar to twice-cooked pork. There is actually meat to eat. This food is too good!"

Everyone talked about it one by one, discussing this matter.

It is now the second month of the Extremely Hot Era. Due to the high temperature, various vegetables and meat have long been rotten. The things that can still be eaten now are basically the legacy left over from the civilized era.

Stir-fried dishes?

It's a bit too luxurious!

In the crowd, many people looked at each other. They looked at the canned food and instant noodles in their hands and suddenly felt that they were not fragrant.

A child about ten years old couldn't help but turn his head to look at the middle-aged woman next to him and said, "Mom, I want to eat twice-cooked pork!"

The middle-aged woman couldn't help but show an embarrassment on her face: "Be good, Xiaohu, we don't want to eat twice-cooked pork. Don't you have canned food? Just eat this!"

The child heard the words and threw the canned food in his hand to the ground with a bang, and immediately made a fuss: "No, I want to eat twice-cooked pork!"

The middle-aged woman saw this and immediately comforted him: "Okay, don't cry, Xiaohu, mom will get you twice-cooked pork!"

"Come with me!"

After saying that, the middle-aged woman immediately got up from the tent and walked towards the direction of the Xingling camp with the child.

Other people saw this and showed curiosity on their faces, and some people couldn't help but follow.

The mother and son soon came to the front of the wall and knocked on the door.

Dongdongdong!

"Who is it?"

The voice of Lu Qianqian came from inside, and soon the door of the wall opened, and Lu Qianqian poked her head out from inside.

The middle-aged woman had an apologetic look on her face: "Little girl, I'm really sorry, my child is clamoring for twice-cooked pork."

"I have a can, I wonder if I can exchange it with you!"

Hearing this, Lv Qianqian couldn't help but frowned, and then said: "Wait a minute, I'll ask our captain."

"Okay, thank you!" The middle-aged woman smiled.

Lv Qianqian returned to the camp, and Meng Ren just came out after washing up. After seeing him, Lv Qianqian asked: "Captain, someone outside came to us and wanted to exchange canned food for twice-cooked pork."

Meng Ren turned his head: "Sure, the same weight of food, then three for one!"

Lv Qianqian blinked: "Three for one? I'm afraid those people won't exchange."

"That has nothing to do with me. Scarcity makes things valuable. If you want to eat better things, of course you have to pay a price."

"I'm not running a charity here!" Meng Ren shrugged.

"For the same weight of food, we can exchange three vegetables for one and five meat for one. We can guarantee that it is not human flesh."

He knew that someone would come to exchange food, so he had already made preparations.

As long as others are willing to bring food, he doesn't mind being generous.

Lv Qianqian nodded, and then went to tell Meng Ren what he said.

She came to the door of the camp and said, "Our captain said that we can exchange food!"

"For the same weight, we can exchange three vegetables for one and five meat for one. We can guarantee that it is not human flesh!"

Wow!

As soon as this was said, there was an uproar at the scene.

"Three for one? Five for one? This is too much of a rip-off. Our food is hard to come by. We have to use three portions of food to get one portion. Only an idiot would do this!"

"Yeah, this is too much of a rip-off. Meat is even more of a five-for-one. And what does this human flesh mean? Does anyone eat human flesh? No way!"

"Fuck, what kind of black-hearted businessman is this? Go away, isn't it just cooking? I can't stop eating, it's like someone is begging him."

Everyone dispersed in a hurry. Everyone was very dissatisfied with the rules set by Meng Ren.

Now that food is so scarce, everyone wants to eat one portion of food as two portions. The rules set by Meng Ren are obviously unsatisfactory.

The middle-aged woman's face was also a little ugly, but she didn't say much, and then prepared to pull the child away.

But the child was not willing to do so. He sat down on the ground: "No, I won't leave!"

"I want to eat twice-cooked pork!"

The middle-aged woman showed a doting and helpless look on her face: "Xiaohu, food exchange is too expensive. Let's forget about it this time. Mom will prepare twice-cooked pork for you next time."

"No, no, I want to eat twice-cooked pork!" The child rolled on the ground.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman was helpless and had to look at Lu Qianqian.

"Little girl, the child really wants to eat. How about we make a deal? You can exchange one for one this time, and I will make up for it next time. What do you think?" said the middle-aged woman.

Lu Qianqian shook her head without hesitation. If it was before, she would definitely agree to it out of softness, but after what she had seen and heard during this period of time, her heart had already changed.

The middle-aged woman in front of her came to beg her for her child, which was indeed pitiful.

But she had seen too many poor people. These people still had food to eat. Wouldn't those who had nothing to eat be even more pitiful?

There are so many hungry people in the world now, and poor people are as worthless as weeds.

Moreover, since the rules were set by Meng Ren, she must not violate them. Otherwise, if Meng Ren is unhappy, she will be the only one who suffers.

"No!" Lu Qianqian refused without thinking.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman's face was not very good.

"Little girl, you are too unkind. Such a young child just wants to eat a meal of twice-cooked pork. Why don't you understand?"

"You are an adult, what's wrong with giving way to the child? You look so young, why are you so hard-hearted!" The middle-aged woman said a lot of words like a string of cannonballs.

Hearing this, Lu Qianqian's face suddenly turned cold.

She was not one to be taken advantage of, so she immediately fought back,

"What are you talking about?"

"Your child has nothing to do with me, he is not my son, why should I be considerate?"

"One for one? You can't even say that. Do you know how difficult it is to preserve fresh vegetables and meat? Don't these have costs?" Lu Qianqian directly scolded back.

Perhaps her voice was a little louder, the little tiger on the ground burst into tears, and rolled on the ground.

"Ah! I want to eat twice-cooked pork!"
