章節 288: Chapter 278 Settling Down

"We are two and a half hours from the nearest county town by the bus, and for more than two hours of that journey, the roads are within our research institute's jurisdiction. Ordinary rural and urban buses aren't even permitted to enter," Shitou explained to Lu Yun, always prone to saying more than necessary when he was with her. So it wasn't surprising that he went into such detail.

He continued to ramble on, "As for the vegetable plots, every household has been allocated one. Since you've just arrived and transportation here is inconvenient, if you see something someone else has planted that you want to eat, it's a good idea to barter your own belongings for it. After all, it's the middle of winter now, and the cold weather makes plant growth very slow."
