After flipping it over for a moment, Fu Cao found the one she wanted; noodles with cabbage and cauliflower stew.

 

    Panko, she had a lot of it left in space, well whatever. The pigs that she bought before were now the amount she didn’t even want to bother counting, they were a lot and by far she has only killed two.

 

    Of course, it was not just pigs, other animals were also plentiful, but even then there was enough room for these small animals to breed and more so for them to grow.

 

    There was also a fair amount of cabbage in the space, last time when she was scavenging in the supermarket, she also brought fresh mushrooms into the space along with every type of seasoning she could get her hands onto.

 

    When she usually cooks in her exclusive restaurant, she had a special large iron pot on the stove alone, and now it was just right for the use.

 

    A small stove on the floor had simmered millet pumpkin porridge and stir-fried vegetables on the top.

 

    When she had first planned for the exclusive restaurant, four stoves were already prepared by her; two short ones that could be used to make porridge and such, while the other two were tall for stir-frying vegetables.

 

    But Fu Cao felt that these four stoves were nowhere enough for her…….

 

    She took out a large stainless steel pot and placed it next to the short stove where the millet porridge was simmering.The mushrooms were cut in half, the cabbage was torn into small pieces, while she sliced the green onion and garlic. The panko was also cut into large thin slices.

 

   First she heats oil in a large pot over medium high heat. When it was sizzling hot, she added ginger, garlic and pepper.

 

    After she slit opened the flesh, she stir-fried the meat, and when the meat changed it’s color, put in the hot coal to make it smoky as she poured out the wine and a little white sugar, she was almost finished. Fu Cao added all the meat pieces in batches into the stainless steel pot that has been boiling.

 

    In an instant, the large stainless steel pan was occupied by a quarter of the meat.

 

    Then she added the shiitake mushrooms and boiled them for two minutes over high flame, after she cooked it till it was fragnanent she then added noodles she prepared beforehand.over the flame the meat was cooked through until the noodles became transparent, and the cabbage broke off. The sauce in the pot was almost done, it was neither thick nor loose, just right.

 

    As she peered at it, she muttered to herself, at least it looked good. She made the small portions mentioned in the book a dozen times it’s amount, and wasn’t sure if it would be good to make it that way. 

 

    Without even washing the big iron pot, she filled it with fresh water, and two thousand eight hundred and fifty eggs were taken out of the space.

 

    There were originally two thousand eight hundred and thirty-two people in the school along with sixteen captains, as well as Chen Ju and her daughter, excluding Lu Xuan, the number reached to two thousand eight hundred and fifty.

 

Since it was still early, Fu Cao only used two iron pots to boil the eggs, and took her sweet time to cook them in batches.

 

    The school trained their students and everyone residing seriously. The people digging at several gates for crystalline nuclei right now didn’t even mind the stench of zombies anymore, as they looked at the crystal nuclei they dug out, it was almost like they were seeing their own mother.

 

    It was getting late, and everyone used a rag to clean themselves up with the darkness as their cover, before they pulled a cart over to Fu Cao.

 

    The smell of the various delicacies intertwined early on, and now everyone was waiting with bated breath for dinner.

 

    The lunch boxes that have not been used for a long time came in handy, but Zhang Zhongmin, for security reasons, did not allow everyone to go out and eat in the exclusive restaurant.

 

    Therefore, the dimly lit playground stood densely packed with people, and not a single one complained whether the weather was getting colder or not.

 

    Zhang Zhongmin took Liu Guoan and Lu Xuan to send a thousand crystal nuclei there, in fact it was a total of one thousand eight hundred, the remaining one’s were put away separately.

 

    “Will you be counting?” The cart was pulled up to the entrance of the exclusive hotel. When Fu Cao saw the dazzling crystal nuclei, she narrowed her eyes, but once she heard what Zhang Zhongmin said, she rolled his eyes.

 

    “There is no need to count them. Until I’m done counting, would you all still be able to wait?” Saying that, Fu Cao brought down a few large bags from upstairs and told them to put all the crystal nuclei in them.

 

    A thousand of them? She could tell with a glance. Why would there be a need to count them?

 

    Not only did she know that there were many of them here, but she also knew that Zhang Zhongmin had bought eight hundred more!

 

    The eggs were also packed in bags and put on the cart.

 

    The millet pumpkin congee was particularly sticky, emitting a strong fragrance, Liu Guoan’s eyes stared deadly at the large stainless steel pot of pumpkin congee, although it was covered by the lid, no one could resist the temptation of that fragrance seeping out.

 

    He almost dropped his mouth when he asked about the taste of the noodle stew with cabbage and cauliflower.

 

    “Where did all your training go, shame on you, walk away.” Zhang Zhongmin’s face was very ugly as he looked at his companion and suddenly roared. It was really just too humiliating. Even if you want to eat it badly, restrain yourself a little at least!

 

    “Fu Cao, I think that this much…maybe won’t be enough?” It wasn’t that Zhang Zhongmin wanted swindle Fu Cao in to give him more, it was just that he really felt that this amount, it won’t be enough.

 

    “You guys go back and share this first. I’ll cook instant noodles later if you’re not full.” Fu Cao looked at the stainless steel cauldron on top: “But you’ll have to wash the cauldron for me after you’re done eating.”

 

    

 

    As soon as they left, Fu Cao took out some stainless steel cauldrons and boiled water in a large pot and turned off the flame after it was done. Then she pulled out a few boxes of instant noodles from the space.

 

     Subsequently, she received all of the crystalline nuclei into space and gaped at those glistening crystal nuclei. Which of course were only first-order crystal nuclei, but this was more than enough for her to be content and walk on air.

 

    With sweet pearly dimples at the corner of her mouth, she hummed an unknown song and broke apart all the instant noodles as she poured them in the pot, ripping the seasoning along bag by bag.

 

    While she was waiting for the right time to stir the pot with a large long spoon, Zhang Zhongmin and the others came back.

 

    “Back? Instant noodles are ready, take the serving away!” Fu Cao looked at it; very well, they cleaned the pot spotless white. “I think it’s about time we finished splitting the instant noodles, you guys can come over for dinner after this batch is done.”

 

    She was referring to you as Zhang Zhongmin, who is in charge of the meal sharing, Lu Xuan, who is in charge of the dishes, and Liu Guoan, who was in charge of the eggs. As she had watched them with her spiritual power she knew that Liu Guoan was salivating at the same time.

 

    But he didn’t take it seriously after all, and left three, one for each of them.

 

    While eating, everyone stuffed their mouths as if it was their last mission with odds that this instant noodle will vanish and there won’t be any left.

 

    Zhang Zhongmin looked at Fu Cao in surprise, then nodded, “Good.”

 

    “Will it be too tiring?” Lu Xuan couldn’t help but worry, after all, this was a meal for more than two thousand people, although it has been made as simple as possible, but it was still very tiring for one person.

 

    Fu Cao waved her hand, “I’ll prepare it for you guys, come over after you divide this.”

 

    Liu Guoan smiled dumbfoundedly, “Thank you, Fu Cao.”

 

    Fu Cao flipped out the fried sauce noodles and cooked the noodles according to the sauce. This one was simple and quick; in a moment Fu Cao made three large bowls of fried noodles, then fried another egg for one of them.

 

    On the second thought, she cut another large plate of marinated pig ears and placed it on the table.

 

    The pig’s ears have been cold for so long, but the marinated vegetables are even more flavorful when they are cold.

 

    Zhang Zhongmin smelled the scent of fried noodles when he brought Lu Xuan and Liu Guoan over, and it hadn’t even been a minute before Fu Cao served them out.

 

    The timing was spot on.

 

    Meanwhile, what they also brought back, of course, was a cleanly washed stainless steel cauldron.

 

    It had been washed by Qiu Ying Ying, and was very clean. So Zhang Zhongmin had secretly taken one egg of his and shoved it into Qiu Ying Ying’s hand as a reward of sorts.

 

    They were so hungry that it only took them three or two bites of the fried egg that was on top of the noodles to finish it.

 

    The noodles were stirred and sucked up quickly, no one uttered a word during the meal. Even Lu Xuan, after all, had also eaten so little at noon, not to mention it was early in the afternoon, yet he gave everyone a share of the meal while suppressing the hunger in his belly.

 

    Fu Cao walked over and looked at them, and they directly divided the pig’s ears into their bowl one by one, which in a minute was licked clean as they had gorged on it.

 

    “Do you guys know where you could find generators in D City?” Fu Cao looked at them. If there was a generator here, she could have steamed rice today. Since dry rice was way better than millet congee and noodles when hungry.

 

    And more convenient…..

 

    “Generator?” Zhang Zhongmin narrowed his eyes. Since he wasn’t from D City,he naturally didn’t know it.

 

    Liu Guoan and Zhang Zhongmin both turned to look at Lu Xuan.

 

    Lu Xuan also shook his head, “I’m not from D City either, I’m from J City, although I’ve studied here for two years, I don’t know D City completely yet.”

 

    However, Lu Xuan looked at Fu Cao: “What do you need the generator for?”

 

    Fu Cao was now distraught, she should have known better to install a generator on this side beforehand. Did she really have to get someone to take the generator apart and put it on this side?

 

    “If there was electricity, I could’ve steamed rice for you, rice relieves hunger.”

 

    Fu Cao sighed, it was a pity that there was no electricity, even if she had a bunch of rice cookers, right now it was nothing but useless.

 

    “Let’s go back and ask about it. When the time comes, maybe someone at school who knows will share.” Zhang Zhongmin finished the large bowl full of fried noodles and finally felt that his belly was full.

 

    He couldn’t resist a loud burp.

 

    “…….” she remembered, she said earlier that if Zhang Zhongmin wanted to eat, the price had to double! Fu Cao gave a grim look at Zhang Zhongmin, it was better to forget about it…….

 

    She still had to rely on them for a generator, and she didn’t know how to install one yet.

 

    After eating and drinking enough, several people went back, after all, they had to leave early tomorrow morning.

 

    “What time are you leaving tomorrow?” Fu Cao asked, glancing at them, as she considered the time when she was ready to cook.

 

    It was completely dark outside, their cold breaths condensed and wrapped around them. Even after eating, although the body felt warm, it was awfully cold outside.

 

    “Six o’clock, there is sunlight while the temperature is neither hot nor cold at six. If it’s too late, I’m afraid the sun will be too high by then.” Zhang Zhongmin said.

 

    It was around twelve noon to four o’clock in the afternoon, when sun acts no different from a big furnace that’s especially close to you.

 

    But now Zhang Zhongmin also wanted to get a generator. There were air conditioners in the school, but because there was no electricity. They have turned into decoration.

 

   On the second thought, he still realized that he might not be able to use air conditioning. When one cannot change one’s environment, one can only try hard to adapt.

 

    Otherwise, when air conditioners become a habit. What will they do when the weather gets worse in the future? They can’t stay in school forever and not come out, now can they?

 

    Even if you can stay in school, they have to go out and find supplies!

 

    “Are you serious?” Qiu Yinlan was a bit shocked.

 

    “Of course it’s true, they’re the ones I opened the door and put in, how could I not know?” At that time, when Chen Ju and Lin Xiaoya arrived at the school, the boy who was guarding the door said.

 

    She had originally come back to this boy with the attitude of just trying because she happened to know who was guarding the East Gate that day.

 

    Qiu Yinlan’s eyes flickered, she was not the first team, so it was not her turn to go out tomorrow to look for supplies.

 

    “I know, thank you.” Qiu Yinlan flashed a gentle smile.

 

    The boy couldn’t resist swallowing hard.
