Chapter 253: Really Easy to Feed

Moqiong had no choice. He received '300 people' for free to fill the virtual island. Gou Ye had already helped a lot.

The 298 Tuqi people, plus two ancient scholars, became the first batch of residents on Moqiong Island.

Perhaps they could be counted on to farm, but it was absolutely impossible to count on them to get fresh water and docks.

Moqiong had to spend more than 10 million yuan and ask the General Affairs Department to send people to help build the island.

It must be said that the high cost of peripheral personnel was not taken in vain. The work efficiency and technical level were much higher than those in society.

The materials were all ready-made and were directly transported into Moqiong's crystal ball by a ship. It only took a few hours to build a reservoir, a warehouse dock, a small villa, and a large shed for 300 people.

Using 3D printing technology, two robotic arms were like stacking building blocks, and a house was formed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Moqiong was moved when he saw it, not to mention those ancient people.

The two scholars called it witchcraft when they saw it.

The Tuqi people looked at it and fell to the ground, muttering as if they had seen a miracle.

Words like gods and Takamagahara kept coming to Mo Qiong's ears, which made him roll his eyes.

"Since you have invited people, you might as well buy some more saplings to enrich the island, otherwise soil erosion will make your island area decrease year by year." Gou Ye said.

Mo Qiong thought that was true. The island was bare, so he planted some trees and sowed some grass seeds.

So Mo Qiong bought another 10,000 saplings, as well as some grass seeds and rapeseed, and asked them to green the area around the villa.

"We have plants, so why not some animals? Fungi and insects are always needed, right? These small creatures will gradually improve the environment of your island. Don't forget to add a few natural enemies, such as frogs and snakes." Gou Ye smiled.

Mo Qiong sighed and took out his mobile phone to place an order.

"But these small animals alone cannot maintain the soil fertility. The land here is barren. You need to buy strong fertilizers. In my experience, I'll buy 100 tons first." Gou Ye said again.

Mo Qiong placed the order silently.

"Just to plant Danmu, you need to buy a special high-temperature soil-drying machine, at least two, right? And fuel, and generators, you can't do without these. If you want to plant other things, you also need corresponding instruments. Buy more fuel, and the two soil-drying machines can't stop working in turns. And other miscellaneous tools, you have to buy them." Gou Ye continued.

"Hmm..." Mo Qiong continued to place orders.

"In addition, three hundred people need food and water, right? You can use the cafeteria yourself, but they can't, and you can't get meals for three hundred people. You can't abuse them. Although they can work for you for half their lives, you have to give them a certain amount of food, clothing, housing and transportation." Gou Ye still said.

Mo Qiong's face froze, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I have no money..."

"Ah? Didn't you say you had some savings?" Gou Ye said in surprise while smoking a cigarette.

"Bullshit savings, I'm a poor guy!" Mo Qiong said angrily.

More than 20 million yuan was almost completely spent. He spent money like water. When he wanted to buy 10,000 kilograms of rice, he found that he had no money. There were only 2,000 yuan left in the account.

Mo Qiong was ashamed. These ancient people were not disposable. The Blue and White Society gave them work and provided for their lives.

Since he received it, he had to be responsible and take care of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

But the money he had left was only enough for them to eat for one day.

Mo Qiong looked back at the ancients and found that they did not care about their own food problems. Instead, they were stunned by the scenes of planting trees and sowing animals by the peripheral personnel.

The bare island when they came here became a decent green island in just half a day.

In their eyes, this was simply a means of changing the world.

"What did you eat when you came here?" Mo Qiong asked.

Hearing his words, except for the two scholars, the other Tuqi people knelt down.

To be more precise, they were kneeling, with their faces pressed to the ground, blowing dirt into their mouths and saying, "God, divine soup."

This noise scared Mo Qiong. Although he knew they were used to it, he still let them stand up.

But this group of people didn't even stand properly. They were hunched over, with their hands on the ground, as if they were ready to fall down at any time.

Mo Qiong was speechless. This posture was really like Gollum in the Lord of the Rings. No wonder they were mistaken for goblins when they were ragged, wrapped in rags, and covered in mud.

They spoke unclearly, as if they were afraid that they would die if they said one more word.

Fortunately, there were two scholars who said, "It is said that this is seafood soup that can restore physical strength, but it is not filling."

Mo Qiong nodded. He could drink as much seafood soup as he wanted, but he couldn't take it back. It was not right to ask the canteen for a few meals of seafood soup every day at mealtime.

And it was not filling. You need real food.

Mo Qiong walked away and came to Gou Ye, saying helplessly: "Gou Ye, lend me some money."

"My savings are only 10,000 yuan, do you want it?" Gou Ye laughed.

"What? You are a member of Gamma, and you only have 10,000 yuan?" Mo Qiong was surprised.

"Money is for spending, why should I save money? It looks good?" Gou Ye said happily.

Mo Qiong sighed: "Then I'll borrow some from others."

"You are a tyrant, right? I don't have money to lend you, but I can give you some food, I have a lot of it." Gou Ye said.

"How much can you borrow?" Mo Qiong asked.

"Enough for half a year! Endure this, and when your island has production, the money will come in, and you don't have to pay me back." Gou Ye said while smoking.

"How can that be? Consider it a loan from me, otherwise I owe you too many favors." Mo Qiong said.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he said this, Mr. Gou got angry and scolded directly: "Fuck, are you crazy?"

"???" Mo Qiong was stunned. What kind of temper is this?

"A favor to your sister? I want a favor from you? Huh?" Master Gou cursed directly, with such a strong tone that Mo Qiong was confused.

Who is this? After Mo Qiong was inexplicably scolded, he said depressedly: "Okay, okay... I don't owe you any favors, right?"

Master Gou ignored him and left directly.

"Why are you going?" Mo Qiong said speechlessly, his temper was too weird.

Gou Ye did not answer, and shortly after leaving, the peripheral personnel also withdrew.

Just as Mo Qiong was thinking about whether to find Master Gou, a large ship suddenly entered the crystal ball. It appeared directly from the edge of the world barrier and stopped at the port riding the wind and waves.

"Let them work and move everything down!" Mr. Gou shouted while standing on the deck, smoking a cigarette.

"..."

Mo Qiong grinned, why is this person so proud?

He finally figured it out. Mr. Gou had such a strong temper. If someone thought he was borrowing a favor, for Mr. Gou, it would be a slap in the face and he would immediately explode.

I guarantee you a guarantee and give you a few kilograms of rice. Are you asking for a favor? You are looking down on me, Master Gou!

Mo Qiong felt that this was probably why he lost his temper just now.

"I'll go... this fucking straight man." Mo Qiong could no longer imagine what this guy's second form... looked like.

Mo Qiong sighed and turned back. "Please go and move all the food down."

"yes!"

The Tuqi people responded hurriedly, hunched over in a circle, and ran under the boat.

Mr. Gou put down the pedal, smoked a cigarette and got off the boat.

Seeing him walking down with a straight face and puffing out smoke, the Tuqi people fell down again.

Master Gou paused and walked away speechlessly. Only then did this group of people dare to stand up and get on the boat.

"Master Gou, did you scare them?" Mo Qiong came over and smiled.

"Why are you scared? This happens to everyone. If you don't believe me, just go over and have a look." Gou Ye said.

Mo Qiong also walked towards the boat, and sure enough, he saw the Tuqi people who were moving the goods put down their things and lay down on the ground.

"What the hell is this?" Mo Qiong hurried away and saw the group of people standing up again as if nothing had happened and continuing to move the goods.

Mo Qiong thought for a while, then walked over again, and fell down again to make way.

After he walked away, he started brushing again and continued working.

"Absolute characteristics?" Mo Qiong grinned.

"Gods have such absolute characteristics that they don't dare to walk the same path as us." Gou Ye rolled his eyes.

Of course, Mo Qiong knew that this was caused by the hierarchy being deeply embedded in his heart. This was not a question of whether he was scared or not, but it was the same before they crossed over. When noble people walked by on the road, they had to lie down on the roadside and wait for others to pass by. Get up, it's already possible.

Habits like this cannot be reversed in a short period of time.

In comparison, the other two scholars were much better. At least they spoke clearly and coherently. They were just scared, but they had been slowly learning and adapting to the world, and they had more potential.

"You always cook, right?" Mo Qiong asked after moving.

The Tuqi people blew dirt and said, "Yes! Yes!"

"Can you do this?" Mo Qiong turned on the gas stove. He bought the trees here, but there was no wood for them to make a fire.

"No! No!" Tu Qiren shook his head hurriedly.

Mo Qiong smiled, turned on all the gas stoves, pointed at the fire and said: "The fire is lit for you, let's cook all this bag of rice."

Thirty kilograms of rice was enough for three hundred people, and the rice soon began to cook in the big pot.

Everyone was extremely hungry, but they stood aside obediently. Instead, they swallowed their saliva and turned their heads, staring at the mushrooms on the roadside.

"I'm not growing these things for you to eat. Just wait a moment while I cook some vegetables." Mo Qiong looked at the food that Master Gou had brought him, and after searching for a long time, he found that it was all rice.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Gou...what should I do with the food?" Mo Qiong said in astonishment.

Mr. Gou walked into the warehouse, pointed to a jar and said, "This is the sauerkraut made in my hometown. Just give each of them a chopstick."

"..." Mo Qiong opened the lid, feeling a sour and salty smell.

"The salt is there, but it's not nutritious, right? Can't we abuse them?" Mo Qiong said.

"What the hell? Do you look down on pickles? I just love eating this. What's the problem?" Master Gou said.

It was Mr. Gou who vouched for him, and he said it was no problem, so it should be no problem.

Mo Qiong opened the rice cooker, blew in the steam and said, "Eat, eat your fill first, and then I'll tell you what to do next."

Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, the people in Tuqi didn't move, they all looked at him eagerly.

"Eat." Mo Qiong repeated.

"Eat... what to eat?" Tuqi asked blankly.

Mo Qiong pointed to the rice pot and said: "Today is the first day. It's a bit simple. It's just rice with pickles. It will be fine in the future."

"What! Rice? For us to eat?" All the Tuqi people said in shock, staring in disbelief.

Mo Qiong was even more incredible and said: "Nonsense, have I eaten so much?"

The Tuqi people looked at each other and said hurriedly: "God's appetite must be so big."

"Yeah, you can definitely eat the entire ocean."

"As expected of a god, he can have so much rice in one meal."

"..." Mo Qiong was speechless, then curled his lips and said, "Stop talking nonsense and bring a bowl to put the rice in."

The Tuqi people didn't dare not listen, so they hurriedly came over to hold the meal.

They stared at the snow-white rice, their eyes were straight, and their noses were twitching wildly, as if it was some delicious food.

Mo Qiong went into the warehouse and came out with a jar of pickled vegetables. He saw the Tuqi people sitting on the ground holding bowls, and burst into tears after just one taste.

“It smells so good!”

"It turns out that rice tastes like this..."

"Wow, wow, it's so delicious..."

Mo Qiong was startled and took a bite. He thought to himself, isn't this just plain rice?

"Wait a minute, you haven't seen rice?" Mo Qiong asked in shock, how could there be no rice in ancient Japan? Rice has been cultivated since the Yayoi period. Are they people before the Yayoi period?

"I've seen it before. We grow rice every year, but we haven't eaten it... It's the first time we've seen cooked rice." The Tuqi man replied.

"..." Mo Qiong was speechless.

I was just stunned for a moment. Before he even served the pickles, the Toqi people had already eaten all the rice in the bowl.

They were all raising their necks, breathing out from their mouths, making strange noises like they had drank cold beer in the summer.

"It's so easy to make a living..."

…

p.s: Sorry.
