Mo Qiong had no choice, Master Gou had already helped him a lot by getting '300 people' to fill up Void Island for free.
The 298 Tuqi people and the two ancient scholars became the first batch of residents on Mo Qiong's island.
Perhaps they could be counted on to farm, but they could never be counted on to settle the fresh water and the dock.
Mo Qiong could only spend more than 10 million to ask the General Affairs Department to send people to help build the island.
It had to be said that the high salary of the peripheral personnel was not for nothing, their work efficiency and skills were much higher than those in society.
The materials were all ready-made, a boat was used to transport them into Mo Qiong's crystal ball, and in just a few hours, the reservoir, warehouse, dock, small villa, and a big house for 300 people to live in were all built.
They used 3D printing technology, the two mechanical arms were like building blocks, and a house was formed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even Mo Qiong was impressed, let alone the ancient people.
The two scholars saw it and exclaimed that it was a magic.
When the Tuqi people saw it, it was as if they saw a miracle, they all lay on the ground and mumbled.
Words like gods, Takamagahara, and so on were heard, Mo Qiong rolled his eyes.
"Since you've already invited them, why don't you buy some saplings to fill up the island, or else soil erosion will reduce the size of your island year by year," said Master Gou.
Mo Qiong thought to himself, 'That's true. This island is barren. Let's plant some trees and plant some grass.'
Therefore, Mo Qiong bought 10,000 saplings, some grass seeds, and vegetable seeds, and asked them to make the villa's surroundings green.
"You already have plants, why don't you have some animals? You have to have fungi and insects, right? These small creatures will gradually improve your island's environment, don't forget to add a few natural enemies, such as frogs, snakes, and so on. "Master Gou smiled.
Mo Qiong sighed, took out his phone and placed an order.
"But these small animals alone can't maintain the land's fertility, the land here is barren, you need to buy strong fertilizers, with my experience, 100 tons first," said Master Gou.
Mo Qiong placed the order silently.
"Just for planting Dan Wood, you need to buy special high-temperature roasters, at least two of them, right? Also, fuel and generators, you can't lack these, if you want to plant other things, you need the corresponding equipment, buy more fuel, the two roasters can't be stopped working. Also, you need to buy all the other miscellaneous tools, "continued Master Gou.
"Yes, yes, yes …" Mo Qiong continued to place orders.
"Also, there are 300 people. Do you want to eat and drink? You can freeload in the cafeteria, but they can't. Besides, you can't possibly get a meal for 300 people. You can't mistreat them. Although they can work for you for half of their lives, you still have to provide them with a certain amount of basic necessities, "Master Gou insisted.
Mo Qiong's face stiffened. He gritted his teeth and said, "I don't have any money …"
"Ah? Didn't you say you had some savings? "Master Gou smoked a cigarette and asked in surprise.
"Bullshit savings, I'm just a pauper!" Mo Qiong said angrily.
More than 20 million was almost used up. He spent money like water. When he wanted to buy 10,000 kilograms of rice, he found that he had no money left. He only had 2,000 yuan left in his account.
Mo Qiong blushed with shame. These ancient people were not disposable goods. The Blue and White Society gave them work and provided for their livelihood.
Since he had accepted it, he had to take responsibility. He had to take care of the basic necessities of life.
However, the money he had left was only enough for them to eat for a day.
Mo Qiong turned around and looked at the ancient people. He found that they were not concerned about their food. Instead, they were stunned by the scenes of the peripheral personnel planting trees and planting animals.
The barren island when they arrived became a decent green island in just half a day.
In their eyes, this was a means to change the world.
"What did you eat when you came here?" Mo Qiong asked.
Hearing his words, other than the two scholars, the rest of the Tuqi people knelt down.
To be precise, they were kneeling with their faces on the ground. They blew dirt from their mouths and said, "Great God, divine soup."
This movement gave Mo Qiong a shock. Although he knew that they were used to this, he still asked them to get up.
However, this group of people did not look like they were standing. They were hunched and their hands were on the ground as if they were ready to lie down at any moment.
Mo Qiong was speechless. This posture was really like Gollum in The Lord of the Rings. It was no wonder that they were mistaken for gnomes when their clothes were ragged and their faces were covered in mud.
Their speech was also unclear. It was as if they were afraid that they would die if they said another word.
Fortunately, there were two scholars who said, "They said it's seafood soup that can recover energy, but it's not filling."
Mo Qiong nodded. He could drink enough of the seafood soup himself, but he could not take it back. Every day when it was mealtime, it would be unreasonable to ask for seafood soup from the cafeteria.
Also, it was not filling. He needed real food.
Mo Qiong walked to Master Gou and said helplessly, "Master Gou, lend me some money."
"I only have 10,000 yuan in savings. Do you want it?" Master Gou smiled.
"What? You're a Gamma member and you only have 10,000 yuan? "Mo Qiong was shocked.
"Money is used to be spent. Why should I save money? Is it nice? "Master Gou said happily.
Mo Qiong sighed, "Then I'll borrow some from others."
"Are you stupid? I don't have money to lend you, but I can give you some food. I have a lot stored there. "Master Gou said.
"How much can you lend?" Mo Qiong asked.
"Enough to eat for half a year! After this, when your island has production, the money will come. You don't have to return it to me. "Master Gou said as he smoked.
"How can I do that? Take it as me lending it to you. Otherwise, I'll owe you too many favors. "Mo Qiong said.
Who knew that when he said that, Master Gou got angry and scolded, "F * ck, is there something wrong with your brain?"
"???" Mo Qiong was stunned. What kind of temper was this?
"Favor your sister? Do I need your favor? Ah? "Lord Gou started scolding. Mo Qiong was dumbfounded by the anger in his voice.
What kind of person was this? After being scolded for no reason, Mo Qiong said gloomily, "Fine, fine, fine … I won't owe you any favors, okay?"
Master Gou ignored him and left.
"Where are you going?" Mo Qiong was speechless. This temper was too weird.
Master Gou did not answer. Not long after he left, the outer circle members also left.
Just as Mo Qiong was thinking about whether to look for Master Gou, a large ship suddenly drove into the crystal ball. It appeared directly from the edge of the world barrier and stopped at the port.
"Let them work. Move everything down!" Master Gou stood on the deck and shouted as he smoked.
"…"
Mo Qiong's mouth twitched. Why was this person so concerned about his reputation?
He could tell that Master Gou's temper was just that unyielding. To Master Gou, being seen as borrowing a favor was like slapping his face. He would immediately explode.
Helping you guarantee and giving you a few kilograms of rice is asking for a favor? You're looking down on me!
Mo Qiong felt that this was probably why he lost his temper just now.
"F * ck … This guy is so f * cking straight." Mo Qiong could not imagine what this guy's second form … would be like.
Mo Qiong sighed and turned around. "I'll have to trouble you to move the food down."
"Yes!"
The Tuqi people quickly answered. They bent their bodies and ran one round before running down the ship.
Master Gou put down the pedal and got off the ship while smoking.
Seeing him walk down with a straight face, the Tuqi people lay down again.
Master Gou paused and walked away speechlessly. Only then did this group of people dare to stand up and get on the ship.
"Master Gou, did you scare them?" Mo Qiong walked over and smiled.
"What's there to scare? Everyone is like that. If you don't believe me, you can walk over and take a look. "Master Gou said.
Mo Qiong also walked toward the ship. 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 hurriedly walked away. He saw the group of people stand up again as if nothing had happened and continue moving the goods.
Mo Qiong thought for a while and walked over again. They lay down again and made way for him.
After he walked away, they got up again and continued to work.
"Absolute characteristic?" Mo Qiong grinned.
"What absolute characteristic? They don't dare to walk the same path as us." Master Gou rolled his eyes.
Of course, Mo Qiong knew that this was caused by the hierarchy system. This was not a matter of whether they were scared or not. It was the same for them before they transmigrated. When nobles walked on the road, they would have to lie down on the ground and wait for them to pass before they could get up. It had become an instinct.
This kind of habit could not be changed in a short time.
In comparison, the other two scholars were much better. At least they spoke clearly. They were only scared. However, they had been slowly learning and adapting to this world. They had more potential.
"You know how to cook, right?" Mo Qiong asked after they finished moving the goods.
Tuqi person blew on the soil and said, "Yes! Yes! "
"You know how to do this too?" Mo Qiong turned on the gas stove. He bought the trees here, but there was no wood for them to start a fire.
"Yes! Yes! "Tuqi person hurriedly shook his head.
Mo Qiong smiled and turned on all the gas stoves. He pointed at the fire and said, "I've started a fire for you. Cook this bag of rice."
Thirty kilograms of rice was enough for three hundred people. Soon, the smell of rice started to come out of the big pot.
Everyone was very hungry, but they stood aside obediently. They swallowed their saliva and turned their heads to stare at the mushrooms by the road.
"I didn't plant these things for you to eat. Wait a moment, I'll cook a dish." Mo Qiong checked the food that Master Gou brought him. After searching for a long time, he realized that it was all rice.
"Wait a moment, Master Gou … what about the dish?" Mo Qiong was stunned.
Master Gou walked into the warehouse and pointed at a jar. "This is the pickled cabbage made in my hometown. Just give each of them a chopstick."
"…" Mo Qiong opened the lid. There was a sour and salty smell.
"There's salt, but it's not nutritious enough, right? I thought we can't mistreat them? "Mo Qiong said.
"What the hell? Are you looking down on pickled cabbage? I like to eat this. What's the problem? "Master Gou said.
It was Master Gou who vouched for him. If he said there was no problem, then there should be no problem.
Mo Qiong opened the pot and blew on the steam. "Let's eat. Eat until you're full. After that, I'll tell you what to do in the future."
However, after he finished speaking, the Tuqi people did not move at all. They all looked at him eagerly.
"Let's eat." Mo Qiong repeated.
"Eat … eat what?" The Tuqi people were stunned.
Mo Qiong pointed at the pot and said, "Today is the first day. Make it simple. Just rice and pickled cabbage. It will be better in the future."
"What! Rice? For us to eat? "The Tuqi people were all shocked. They stared at him in disbelief.
Mo Qiong was even more incredulous. "Nonsense, how can I eat so much?"
The Tuqi people looked at each other and hurriedly said, "A god's appetite must be so big."
"Yes, you can definitely eat the entire sea."
"As expected of a god. You can eat so much rice in one meal."
"…" Mo Qiong was speechless. Then, he curled his lips and said, "Cut the crap. Bring the bowls over."
The Tuqi people did not dare to disobey. They hurriedly came over and trembled as they took the rice.
They stared at the snow-white rice. Their eyes were straight and their noses were twitching crazily. It was as if it was some delicacy.
Mo Qiong entered the warehouse and came out with the pickled cabbage jar. He saw the Tuqi people sitting on the ground with bowls in their hands. They cried after tasting a mouthful.
"So fragrant!"
"So this is what rice tastes like …"
"Boohoo, it's so delicious …"
Mo Qiong was stunned. He also tasted a mouthful. He thought to himself, 'Isn't this just plain white rice?'
"Wait a minute, you have never seen rice before?" Mo Qiong was shocked. How could there not be rice in ancient Japan? Rice had been planted since the Yayoi era. Could they be people from before the Yayoi era?
"We have seen it before. We plant rice every year, but we have never eaten it … This is the first time we have seen cooked rice." The Tuqi people replied.
"…" Mo Qiong was speechless.
He was only stunned for a moment. Before he could serve the pickled cabbage, the Tuqi people had already finished all the rice in their bowls.
They were all raising their necks and blowing air out of their mouths. They were making strange noises as if they had drunk cold beer in the summer.
"So easy to feed …"
