Chapter 301: Do You Want To Eat Fried Dough Cakes?
Under great rewards, there will be brave men. Never underestimate the power of the masses. They can either transform into the ever-vigilant citizens or form bounty hunter groups.
Most of the rioters only have sticks or kitchen knives. As long as they dare to risk their lives, who’s afraid of whom is still uncertain.
Lu Yu excitedly contacted, “Anning, our building has formed a 50-person bounty team. In one day, we caught more than 20 rioters nearby and actually got the reward.”
Everyone is flesh and blood; there’s nothing to be afraid of. As long as they have absolute superiority in numbers and momentum, many rioters can only surrender.
Lu Yu and Zhang Chao grew up together in the orphanage. They can rely on each other since they were kids. Later, one of them dated for a living, and the other took on tough jobs running errands. During natural disasters, they became security patrols with impressive acting skills.
Additionally, the people in Aoyuan naturally come together as a unified community. With Lu Yu and Zhang Chao sharing their acting expertise and experience, and with Sharp-mouthed Monkey and the others already possessing excellent acting skills, they became a formidable team.
Whenever they encountered rioters, they all posed as fierce and valiant, wielding their weapons and shouting as they charged, creating the illusion of a thousand troops rushing in.
Just ask, who’s not afraid?
Jiang Ning asked curiously, “How are the rioters dealt with after being sent to the police station?”
“In chaotic times, severe punishments are used. Those with serious crimes are executed; those with minor crimes are sent to do hard and dangerous labor.”
Lu Yu admired Jiang Ning’s foresight. Buying a house near the police station is relatively safer. The young people of Aoyuan also learned from Brother Shen. Although their skills were a bit lacking, they were quick-witted and full of tricks. The two groups got along harmoniously.
Unlike their previous residence, where he had to sleep with a knife under his pillow and he’s always on guard against being attacked.
Jiang Ning warned, “The riots may not calm down for a while, so you must be careful.”
“You and Brother Shen too. There are many people with guns in the villa area. Ordinary rioters may not dare to target you, but the underworld forces might.”
This was also Jiang Ning’s concern. Since the military’s high-pressure crackdown, combined with the fire tactics at Building 50, many rioters knew the villa area was not to be messed with and dared not act rashly for a while.
But there were always some who were eager to try. They think themselves as invincible and they dared to sneak over the high walls in secret.
As a result, they either got bitten half to death by dogs before reaching the villa’s door or had guns pointed at their heads by the patrol team.
They weren’t the police. If someone came in vertically, they would leave horizontally.
After eliminating more than a dozen waves, people gradually adapted. They no longer panicked like when the eternal night first broke out.
Rich or poor, everyone kept adapting to the natural disaster, all for the hope of seeing the light of day again.
Chief Ling and others were recovering at the Rong family’s home, giving Rong Sanshao an excuse to keep bothering Jiang Ning.
He became quite chatty and he keep on disturbing her every half an hour.
“Sis, Chief Ling woke up.”
“Sis, Chief Ling seems to have farted.”
“Sis, Chief Ling’s reaction is slow. Could he be brain-damaged?”
“Ugh, so boring. Wanna play mahjong? We’re short of one.”
Jiang Ning finally lost her patience, “Do you want to eat fried dough cakes?”
Rong Sanshao had no choice. Being stuck at home was unbearable, and he was intimidated by Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen’s fierceness. He felt that the second generation was completely weak in comparison, and they might think that playing with him was an insult to their identity.
Nothing could stop his desire to get closer to the strong.
He gambled on his character, believing there was something special between the two and Chief Ling, as if there was an invisible bond tying the three together.
Rong Sanshao couldn’t figure it out and was anxious!
The Rong family had found a new family doctor. Jiang Ning didn’t want to get too deeply involved with Chief Ling, so she hadn’t checked on him for the past few days.
Actually, what she didn’t know was that Chief Ling, as soon as he woke up and confirmed that his officers were not in any life-threatening danger, insisted on notifying the police station to pick them up, despite Mr. Rong’s attempts to keep him there.
There was still a mountain of work waiting for him.
Could he rest and recover here while rioters continued their crimes?
Rong Sanshao didn’t hide anything and truthfully recounted his rescue experience.
Upon learning that it was Huo Yishen and Jiang Ning who saved him from hundreds of rioters, Chief Ling was not overly surprised. Before leaving, he even praised the Rong family, “The community safety patrol is doing a good job. If other neighborhoods had your awareness, rioters wouldn’t be so rampant. Please continue and don’t let your guard down.”
After he left, Rong Sanshao collapsed on the sofa, “Dad, what do you think is the relationship between Chief Ling and Building 50?”
The day the rioters attacked the villa, he rushed to Building 50 first which clearly shows some concern.
He was neither surprised nor grateful for having his life saved; clearly he doesn’t see the people of Building 50 as outsiders.
“Do you think Building 50 is working under Chief Ling to be undercover, trying to secretly control the rich area?”
“You must be out of your mind,” Mr. Rong scolded him, “Have you ever seen an undercover agent willing to go against the entire community?”
“You say you’re not old, but do you understand the counter-intuitive moves of the young generation?”
The father and son didn’t see eye to eye. Rong Sanshao couldn’t hold his tongue, “If Building 50 was like the other rich people, would I have taken a liking to them?”
In any case, they were definitely not simple. The aura that the two emitted was unusual.
How to describe it? Rong Sanshao couldn’t quite put it into words, but they were extraordinary!
Mr. Rong, used to hitting him, strike him with his cane, “You brat, getting arrogant, huh? When I was working hard to build this family, you weren’t even born. If you’re brave enough, leave this house!”
It would have been better to have raised a pig than him!
…
Jiang Ning selected a few wooden boards from her space, propped them up with iron frames in a room on the first floor, wetted the wood with water, and then sparsely laid black moss on them.
For comparison, she also took out a few planting pots.
She used a dim light bulb to provide them with approximately three hours of light daily.
With its extensive root system, the black moss adhered tightly to the wood and soil in just a few days and began to grow continuously.
In less than half a month, it was ready to be harvested with a sickle.
Jiang Ning tasted a piece; it didn’t have a special flavor but it was more chewable than Guanyin clay.
It can be stir-fried, boiled, or even eaten raw without causing any poisoning.
Worried that the two wouldn’t like it, Jiang Ning washed the moss, chopped it finely, mixed it with two beaten eggs, and fried it.
To her surprise, the two stood by the stove without moving.
The fried egg was quite tasty, and a large plate of it was quickly eaten up.
Jiang Ning planned to make glutinous rice balls or bread. In any case, she wanted the two to occasionally experience tough living conditions and not get picky about their food.
Not only her family but even the poultry had to share in the hardship.
For the poultry, as long as they were well-fed, they didn’t mind. With daily light exposure and occasional music, they adapted to the eternal night and cold and they become more productive in laying eggs.
Endless darkness caused most people’s lives to come to a standstill, and even the rich worried about their future livelihood.
They had hidden supplies outside, but it was uncertain if they had been looted by rioters, while the stock inside the villa kept dwindling.
Thus, they started inquiring with Qin Chuan, wanting to raise some poultry themselves.
Even though they were separated by high walls, their hearing had become sharper in the eternal night, and they could hear the sounds of chickens, ducks, and geese from Building 50…
