Chapter 161 Timely Rain

Thinking that Jiang Si's behavior was strange, everyone looked at her and asked strangely: "Sisi, what are you doing?"

Jiang Si pointed to the place where the seawater dripped and said, "Look carefully."

Shen Baoying looked carefully, and found that this little fleshy worm was actually crawling around the place where the seawater dripped.

Everyone's eyes lit up, "Is this kind of bug afraid of sea water?"

Jiang Si nodded, "Maybe, let's try again."

Qin Shen picked out some ice cubes from the fish box, put them in a pot to melt them, and poured sea water on the insects, which was more effective than insecticide, and the insects could not move in an instant.

Everyone's eyes widened. These bugs seemed to be really afraid of salt water. Thinking about it carefully, they went up and down the icebreaker every day. No matter how careful they were, they might bring bugs on board, but these bugs had never appeared on the seashore.

Everyone immediately became excited. If they had discovered earlier that sea water could restrain these bugs, their greenhouses and houses would be fine.

Although it's too late now, they found out anyway, they have plenty of time now, and they can build it slowly.

Jiang Si comforted: "Grandma, don't we still have a greenhouse on the ship? It's okay to plant less. Anyway, at the beginning, I wanted to grow more vegetables and radishes just to raise the monkeys. Now the monkeys eat insects and fish. The same can be done, but we need to grow some more first, and then we will slowly study the seeds in the seed bank to see which vegetable and grain seeds can adapt to the soil with high salt content, or we can wash the soil several times with hot spring water, or Separately isolate the hydroponic vegetables in a safe space."

Niu Niu smiled and said: "Grandpa, there must be some, we can catch fish, fish eat kelp, seaweed and sea vegetables, there must be all of them!"

Everyone was vigilant from the beginning, and after these days of observation, they were not so cold towards Zhang Aihua.

They don't even have a few cold weapons in their hands, and they can think of making some gifts for them, which is considered hard work.

At dawn, everyone couldn't wait to check the situation.

Jiang Sidao: "Don't go in for now, let's protect the seeds first."

Otherwise, Song Yufang would really feel that they are no different from savages.

Shen Baoying said, "They are also unlucky. They were attacked by insects as soon as they were planted. If they don't eat food for a long time, I don't know if they can bear it."

The surface of the stone bowl is very rough, but the shape is very delicate, and the mouth of the cup is also polished very smooth, which has a sense of simplicity and art.

The seed bank is full of plants and stored materials. If it is occupied by insects, the loss will be great, and Jiang Si will be heartbroken. If those seeds wait until the day when the extreme cold disappears, it may be the time when the farming era will be revived.

Everyone hastily went to the beach to draw a box of seawater, and got two big boxes of small meat worms to observe.

Jiang Si nodded, "Well, I can tell."

Jiang Si smiled and said: "The Inuit survived in extremely cold weather, and they did not eat vegetables for many years. They mainly relied on fish to supplement high-quality protein and survived. It is because they are used to eating vegetables, fruits, meat, poultry and eggs for nutrition. Matching, if you eat fish for a long time, you will feel bored, but rest assured, humans are a very adaptable animal, and they will definitely find their own point of balance and adaptation.”

The big guys got busy again, pumping sea water to spray everything around them.

Although the seawater has melted, the temperature is still around minus [-] degrees to [-] degrees below zero. The seawater pumped up is easy to freeze. Once the pump stops working, it will stop.

Everyone nodded, and Jiang Chengwu turned his gaze to the sea, "The seaweed and kelp jellyfish on the bottom of the sea can also be eaten as vegetables, and I don't know if they are still alive."

After all, they are all human beings, and now is a peaceful time, and there is no threat to them. They have received equal compulsory education, and they cannot do anything to make them slaves.

Everyone sprayed seawater on the entrance of the seed bank, three layers inside and three layers outside, and when they piled up, they turned into a saltwater iceberg.

In order for the weather in the house to heat up and the processed fish to go bad, Song Yufang will also lead everyone to extract sea salt using the old method, marinate some sea fish that need to be salted, and store them in the sun.

Everyone laughed, "Then we will point to this sea and fish hard from now on."

Jiang Si said to everyone: "I'm sure seawater is effective for them."

The little meat worms should have hatched according to the previous hatching speed, but after being filled with sea water, these little meat worms didn't move at all.

Jiang Si stared at the corpse of the little meat worm and said: "See if the eggs can be killed. If it can be killed, let's get some and water it at the entrance of the seed bank."

Jiang Si nodded, "Thank you, the gift is very beautiful." Then he said: "We found that sea water can prevent these bugs from biting things, maybe we can use salt water to protect your remaining things."

Although salt water can corrode the soil, it's better than worrying about being eaten by bugs when you even settle down.

Zhang Qingfang smiled and said, "Alright."

Jiang Chengwu looked in the direction where Zhang Aihua and the others were, "Would you like to talk to them?"

Shen Baoying smiled and said: "Everyone can only see an iceberg here, how would you know there are so many treasures hidden under the iceberg.

When Jiang Si saw the stone bowl on the ground, Zhang Aihua picked it up and said flatteringly: "Miss Jiang, Mr. Qin, this is a stone bowl and stone tool we specially made for you. This kind of little bug is very powerful. It can chew on everything. It’s just this kind of stone that can’t be chewed, if you like it, we can make some more for you.”

Seeing Jiang Si and Qin Shen coming, although everyone didn't know what they were here for, they all greeted in a friendly manner.

Jiang Linhai asked: "Should we not go in in the future?"

When Jiang Si and Qin Shen went to Zhang Aihua and the others, they were preparing to use tools to carve out some single rooms in the cave, so that everyone could live together so as to have a private space.

Zhang Aihua's eyes lit up immediately, and he said excitedly: "Thank you, thank you so much!"

Women, children and the elderly are dealing with the fish they caught yesterday with the net. Now there are so many fish, and they can eat them for several days with one net.

To avoid accidents, they will all be dealt with and buried in snowdrifts.

Zhang Aihua came up to meet her, dressed as a mason, as if she had lost the sense of sophistication of the upper-class people in suits and leather shoes.

Zhang Qingfang sighed deeply, "Sea water is effective against bugs, but corrosive to the soil. We can no longer grow vegetables and food."

Jiang Si and Qin Shen have arrived.

The vulture feathers that were collected with great difficulty, they have now lost more than half.

What's even more frightening is that the collapsed timber will be eaten up by bugs.

The method provided by Jiang Si seems to be timely rain.

Zhang Aihua wanted to offer something better to Jiang Si, but he couldn't offer anything, only with a look of embarrassment, Song Yufang said: "Miss Jiang, Mr. Qin, would you like to try the snake egg layer cake we made? It's quite fragrant."
