The first food stall in the wasteland

Chapter 499 Extremely regretful
This is also a problem.

Shen Lu nodded and expressed understanding: "As long as you have time, you are welcome to give me your opinions."

Sang Yue agreed simply.

After Sang Yue left, Shen Lu went to the kitchen to prepare things for lunch.

After the Youlong Hall was moved to a more elegant courtyard house, the price naturally increased again.

This has been well received by guests.

After all, people who can eat here are either rich or powerful, and they pursue quality and environment.

The previous Youlong Hall is not bad, but the Siheyuan can better demonstrate status.

The amount of tasks this week has increased, and Shen Lu has increased the number of reception tables accordingly.

A win-win situation, everyone is happy.

In addition, Shen Lu's store has more manpower. After all, there are too many idle people in those neighborhoods. After picking and choosing, he actually picked out a few that could be used.

Shen Lu created a separate reservation backend for Youlong Hall. The authority to grab numbers is open at ten o'clock every night, and those who grab the number can place orders in advance.

This somewhat relieved Shen Lu's pressure on the next day.

In the afternoon, Shen Lu went to inspect the chicken and pig greenhouses.

The chickens and piglets were brought from the research institute, and they also received three months of feed.

Shen Lu asked for money, but the institute did not ask for it. He only said that he wanted to come over often to see how the livestock were doing.

Shen Lu was well aware of their little thoughts and she did not refuse.

Raising chickens and pigs requires people, so He Guangchao hired 20 people to manage these two greenhouses, which made him exhausted both physically and mentally.

"Boss, they are really bad." He Guangchao complained to Shen Lu in a low voice, "Raising chickens and pigs is different from growing vegetables. It is more difficult and the situation is more complicated. My suggestion is to find experienced people. They raise them randomly like this. If you follow the instructions in the breeding manual, all these chickens and pigs will be blind."

The greenhouses built earlier were all used for growing vegetables, and the masters were ready-made. Shen Lu asked Yang Jing to teach them, and the results were pretty good.

The livestock side is not so lucky. There are no masters, and the people in the neighborhood have basically never studied and have no optical brain, so it is very bad.

"Then find someone experienced to take care of you. It's not a big problem."

"Boss Shen, the breeders are government employees. They receive government subsidies and will not easily leave their jobs and come to us."

Shen Lu was dumbfounded, "Is that so?"

Those food supply bases are not all run by the government. Why do the employees there still receive government subsidies?
“The government certainly values ​​technical talents.”

Shen Lu clicked his tongue, "What trouble can there be in raising chickens and pigs? I'll watch the video later and give them two lessons."

Shen Lu was not bragging. With the pure water provided by the system, there would be no major problems with those chickens and pigs.

He Guangchao was speechless.

He knew that Shen Lu was a bit messy, but this was too messy.

Shen Lu said he wanted to watch it, but the person watching the video was Fucheng.

He is still recuperating, spending a lot of time either lying down or sitting.

According to Shen Lu's requirements, he took notes on the key points of each stage of raising livestock.

After Shen Lu thought there was no problem, he called the twenty people over and asked Fucheng to give two hours of lessons every day.

The content was not complicated, and the people who could be hired by He Guangchao were not stupid, so the breeding greenhouse was on the right track.

Unlike He Guangchao's expectation that a large number of livestock died, they looked pretty good.

A month later, the temperature continued to rise. It was not even May yet, and it was already over 40°C.

Such abnormal temperatures made it easy for people to panic, and rumors of the end of the world spread throughout the imperial capital.

The government had to intervene to appease the people, but the effect was not very obvious.

Unless the temperature can drop, this panic will only get worse.

A new problem arose on Shen Lu's side. Someone secretly hides water and sells it to outsiders.

Shen Lu did not allow people in her jurisdiction to take her supplies out for takeout, and everyone obeyed them well at first.

As time goes by, some people have more thoughts.

By the time Shen Lu found out, this shady business was already going well.

Shen Lu laughed angrily.

Although the water they sell is not pure water provided by the system, she also pays for the water delivered from local water pipes.

Now these people are taking advantage of her and doing business without capital.

Shen Lu didn't bother to listen to their explanation. There was nothing to quibble about when the evidence was solid.

One by one, they all drove away.

These people are still not convinced. After a good period of time, they have almost forgotten Shen Lu's iron-blooded tactics before, and they still want to make mischief to stir up public opinion and force Shen Lu to suffer a painful loss.

"You make so much money, so what if we just exchange a little water for some food?!"

"Why do you have such a dark heart at such a young age?"

"I'm already this old, and I've lived in Block 16 all my life. You're driving me away now because you want me to become a lonely ghost!"

After these people yelled for less than an hour, they were taken away by police officers for disturbing public order, and were sent to work in the mines the next day.

They were still a little confused and couldn't figure out the situation.

"We haven't done anything harmful to nature, so they won't send us to the mine, right?"

"There must be a misunderstanding!"

"I know, it's that little bitch Shen Lu. He's so cruel and unkind for the sake of wealth!"

"What about the government? Doesn't the government care?"

The man in charge of guarding the mine struck it with a stick and cursed: "Shut up, everyone. If each person cannot dig 100 kilograms of ore today, they are not allowed to eat!"

Everyone did not dare to yell any more and hurriedly immersed themselves in their work.

100 kilograms of ore is not easy to dig. The soil is so hard that some people who have never done rough work will have blood blisters on their palms after just a few digs.

After working hard all day, I only dug a few dozen kilograms, which was far from enough.

If you can't complete the task, you will naturally have no food to eat. No matter how much you cry and beg for mercy, it will be useless.

A few days later, the older man couldn't take a breath and fainted.

The mine would not send him to the hospital. At most, he would be carried to a resting shed. He would die before nightfall.

At this time, they finally came to their senses and felt extremely regretful.

Why should we be greedy?
Life was getting better under Shen Lu's hands, but he had to be kicked out just for the meager profit. He was still confused and wanted to cause trouble for Shen Lu.

Now that I'm in the mine, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out for the rest of my life and will have to die here.

Regret, I regret it so much.

Someone started to cry, very sad.

With them as examples, those people in the neighborhood who were ready to take action became more honest.

That day, Shen Lu was at home discussing the planning of the villa with Fucheng, and the system told her that Shen Lan was here.

Shen Lan?

Shen Lu was a little curious. He took a look first and found that there was no news about Shen Lan. She came directly.

But what does she want from her?

Shen Lu asked someone to bring Shen Lan over and met her in his courtyard.
