Chapter 341: Planting More Trees

Xu Xiang calmly listened to A Lu Ge’s words, but did not speak. Seeing that she was not interested in the harvesting activities, A Lu Ge looked at her and asked, "Xu Xiang, what are you going to do after checking the surrounding temperature? Do you need my help?"

Looking at the boy who looked strong and tall, Xu Xiang thought for a while and said, "I need to plant more trees on this mountain to have a temperature suitable for rain."

As soon as these words came out, A Lu Ge’s eyes widened. He looked at her and asked in disbelief: "Is it going to rain today?"

Xu Xiang shook her head and said, "It’s impossible to rain in such hot weather. We need to lower the temperature before the rain clouds can form."

A Lu Ge pondered on her words for a while and asked, "So, as long as we can lower the temperature as you said, it will rain?"

Xu Xiang nodded. He then asked excitedly: "What can I do to help you?"

She smiled and said to him: "Plant more trees. Can you help me find someone to help me plant trees?"

A Lu Ge patted his chest and said, "Leave it to me. How many people do you want? I know many people in our village."

She counted for a few seconds and said, "At least one hundred people are needed to replant the wasteland in this mountain."

"All right. I will bring them here in an hour."

After speaking, A Lu Ge rushed back to the village, while Xu Xiang took out enough saplings to plant the remaining wasteland on the mountain. An hour later, A Lu Ge came back with nearly two hundred people.

Looking at the group of children standing behind him, Xu Xiang raised her eyebrows. A Lu Ge scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "Uh... The adults have all gone to help harvest the crops, so I can only recruit children to plant trees."

Xu Xiang looked at the ragged and emaciated children, and saw hope in their eyes. She smiled at them and said, "It’s still early. How about we have breakfast first?"

Unable to help with any work, the children can only eat one meal a day. Hearing that they could eat something before working, they all looked at A Lu Ge in unison.

Noticing their gazes, A Lu Ge nodded to Xu Xiang and said, "Mhm! I’m very hungry."

Hearing what he said, Xu Xiang chuckled and said, "Then let’s eat first before we plant the trees."

After saying that, she took out twenty picnic mats and said, "Form groups of ten, spread out this picnic mat and sit down in a circle."

The children were very obedient, and soon divided into several groups and sat on the picnic mat. Afterwards, Xu Xiang went to the first group and brought out enough food for ten children. When the children saw the food coming out of nowhere, they all exclaimed in surprise, but quickly covered their mouths with their hands, and then looked at Xu Xiang in horror.

Seeing their reaction, Xu Xiang frowned slightly. She put her index finger to her lips and said, "This is our secret."

Hearing that it was a secret, the children all widened their eyes and nodded quickly. Seeing their obedient appearance, Xu Xiang was very satisfied and added more desserts for them. She then moved from group to group and brought out enough food, water and dessert for everyone.

Ten minutes later, she finally sat down beside A Lu Ge, took out a lot of food and water, and said, "Let’s eat."

As soon as her words fell, the children grabbed the food and ate as if they were a thousand years hungry ghosts. Seeing them like this, Xu Xiang fell into deep thought. As for A Lu Ge, it’s been a long time since he ate the food personally cooked by Xu Xiang, so he also ate like a hungry ghost.

When Xu Xiang came out of her contemplation, most of the food had already entered A Lu Ge’s stomach. She shook her head helplessly, then closed her eyes and checked on Mu Yucheng.

Inside the space, the food she prepared for him on the dining table remained untouched, and Mu Yucheng was still cultivating in the lake pavilion. She looked at him for a while before withdrawing her consciousness from the space.

She sighed, pouted her lips slightly, and thought: ’He cultivated as if he was being chased by a ghost. It has been more than two months in space, but he is still cultivating. Why do I feel he is in a hurry?’

"Xu Xiang, why don’t you eat? Aren’t you hungry?" A Lu Ge asked when he saw her looking at the bread in a daze.

Hearing his question, Xu Xiang shook her head and took a bite of the bread. Twenty minutes later, they finished their sumptuous breakfast, and then Xu Xiang put all the empty plates and bowls into her space.

She looked at the children who were eating until their stomachs were bulging and said, "Since you all ate my food and drank my water, you should pay for it by working for me."

After saying that, Xu Xiang pointed to the tree saplings beside her and said, "I will teach you how to plant tree saplings in a moment. Observe carefully, and each of you will plant the tree saplings later. If I am satisfied with your work, I will give you lunch and dinner."

Seeing that the children were just looking at her silently, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Any more questions?"

The children shook their heads as an answer. Xu Xiang smiled at them and said, "Then let’s start."

She picked up a tree sapling and said, "Remember to leave some distance between the saplings. After determining the location, dig a deep hole, put the sapling in, and then cover the roots with soil. Then it’s done."
