Post-apocalyptic farming / healing food / slow-paced
After a car accident, Jiang Manman transmigrated to the ninety-third year after the apocalypse and was buried beneath a blizzard.
Luckily, the one-eyed hunter Zhou Xianzhi happened to pass by, rescued her, and brought her back to the base.
Inside this rundown inn known as the "base":
There was a girl with half a leg crippled, a hunched old person…
And a bunch of children so skinny they were little more than bones, offering her the wild fruit they'd treasured.
"Is it too late for me to die now?" Jiang Manman closed her eyes in despair.

Dying was out of the question.
As the last spark of human civilization, she had to live well! So Jiang Manman and her friends at the base worked together to shelter from polar storms, stockpile food and hunt, build houses, and try growing sweet potatoes on the frozen plain at minus fifty degrees.
Later...
Cold-resistant sweet potatoes grew on the barren frozen plain.
Greenhouses went up, and cured venison hung from every roof.
Countless people who'd heard of the base crowded in, begging for shelter, while traveling merchants came to buy sweet potatoes.
Jiang Manman tapped the blackboard and laid down the rules:
"Priority goes to anyone bringing apple saplings. If you know how to pickle water spinach, you get to cut the line!"
