Chapter 157: I’m Doomed

Three women from the Xiuluo tribe nodded and hurried to fetch firewood. Looking at their backs, Xu Xiang couldn’t help but praise their attitude. Although they came from two different tribes, they walked all the way from the village of the Jia tribe without causing any trouble.

’With the way they behave, it will be easier to live and work together peacefully in the future.’

Thinking of this, Xu Xiang walked to the long table and picked up the ingredients for the first recipe. Then she took out a long table from her space, and put the fresh ingredients on top of it.

Looking at the women in front of her, she said, "I don’t have time today, so I will only teach you a few simple recipes."

Raising up three fingers, she said, "I will teach you three recipes today. The first recipe is steamed buns. It is easy to make, but delicious and very filling. The second recipe is egg drop soup. It is also very easy to make. The last recipe is Mushroom and Vegetable Stir Fry. The method is simple and the dishes taste fresh."

After speaking, Xu Xiang demonstrated how to cook the three dishes, while telling them from time to time how to make a better taste and how to prepare the ingredients. When the three women came back with firewood, they lit the stove and steamed the buns, while Xu Xiang stir-fried vegetables and mushrooms and cooked a pot of egg drop soup. Before long, the mouth-watering fragrance spread over the surroundings.

After a while, a plate of mushroom and vegetable stir-fried, a bowl of egg drop soup, and a plate of steamed buns were placed on the long table. Xu Xiang looked at them and asked, "Do any of you have any questions?"

The women shook their heads when they heard her question. Xu Xiang nodded, washed her hands and said, "Then you can start. Please prepare enough food for four hundred people."

After that, Xu Xiang took more ingredients, and went to check the progress of other tasks. Walking to the center of the village, she saw A Lu Yu directing other people to demolish houses. Seeing her coming, A Lu Yu waved to her.

"Xu Xiang, you came at the right time. The last building has just been demolished." He said with a gentle smile on his face.

Xu Xiang looked around and found that they not only demolished the house, but also cleaned the debris. Looking at the area ready for use, she is satisfied.

A Lu Yu smiled and asked, "What are your next plans?"

She took out the transparent screen and turned it on. A detailed map appeared on the screen, and she showed it to him. Pointing to several areas on the map, she said, "We can build a house in these three areas."

A Lu Yu looked at the areas she was pointing at and asked, "Why did you choose these areas?"

"There are three springs under the ground in those areas. If we build houses there, we can make three wells. With wells, people don’t have to go far to get water. It will be more convenient for everyone." She explained calmly.

A Lu Yu glanced at her and said with a hint of a smile in his tone. "No wonder you asked my eldest brother to make three carbon filters. It turns out that you have already planned everything."

Xu Xiang pointed to three more areas on the map and said, "The soil in these three areas is more fertile than other places. We can grow crops or medicinal plants here. Although the areas are not too big, if high-yield crops can be planted, it will be enough for everyone to eat."

She swiped the screen with her finger, and another detailed map appeared. She tapped her finger on the screen and said, "In this area, I want to build a hospital, and functional buildings such as conference halls. For the east area, I plan to raise animals there. As for the west area, I want to build a training ground and workshops. Then for the rest of the area, there are no plans for now."

While listening to her explanation, A Lu Yu kept nodding. After Xu Xiang told him about her plan, A Lu Yu looked at her and said, "It seems that I still underestimated you in the past. With your knowledge alone, even the smart A Lu Zhi can easily be surpassed by you."

She raised her eyebrows and said with a slight smile: "I just have better equipment than all of you."

A Lu Yu smiled and shook his head, but did not speak. Looking at his expression, she knew he didn’t believe her. Instead of explaining to him, she said, "Our priority now is to build houses and wells."

"I thought you demolished those houses so we could use our tent. Do you know how to build a house?" A Lu Yu asked with interest.

Knowing that they don’t know how to build a house, she has already prepared the design and instructions for building the house. She swiped the screen again and showed the designs to A Lu Yu.

She raised her eyes, looked at him and said, "This is the design I prepared for the house. Although the design is simple, the finished product is sturdy. As long as you follow the instructions, I believe you can build the houses in no time."

A Lu Yu looked at the complicated instructions on the screen and frowned. Fortunately, Xu Xiang prepared a drawing as an instruction instead of words. Otherwise, no one would be able to read the instructions at all. Seeing him frowning, Xu Xiang took out a piece of paper and a writing brush from her space.

She uses the screen as a drafting table, and draws the house design and instructions on the paper. Three minutes later, she handed the paper to A Lu Yu and said, "I will leave it to you to build the houses. We need at least one hundred houses in total. I would like the house to be ready in two days if possible. As for the materials, I will prepare it for you. All you need to do is assemble them."

Before A Lu Yu could speak, Xu Xiang’s eyes fell on the screen, and she turned to leave. A Lu Yu held the paper in his hand, looked at her back, and sighed. Scratching his head, he chuckled and helplessly said, "I’m doomed."
