Even Tan Junyan trembled as she said, "With this food, those poor children won't have to go hungry. They won't be emaciated and frail anymore."

"And those elderly people no longer have to face the danger of dying of thirst or starvation..."

Tears of excitement flashed in Tan Junyan's eyes.

The days when the whole family, young and old, worried about having enough food to eat kept emerging in my mind.

And now, such a huge amount of food is about to arrive. This shock makes her excited and unable to control her emotions.

"The clothes we wear, the streetlights in the city, the food, meat, vegetables, water, steel, coal... all were sent by Wang Yan. We owe him a debt that we will never be able to repay in ten lifetimes."

There was a cry in Tan Junyan's voice.

"Li Zhaolong, Fan Yin, the two of you go and have people clean up the area and prepare to store the grain."

“Yes, yes.”

With red eyes, they both agreed loudly and turned to walk out.

"Wei Guang, go spread the news. We'll trade grain for horses."

Tan Junyan said, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Two hundred and fifty kilograms of fine rice in exchange for a warhorse."

Because Wang Yan had mentioned before that he wanted to exchange food for war horses.

Under normal circumstances, a warhorse can produce about 400 kilograms of meat.

But due to the natural disaster, the war horses lacked water and food, and all of them became extremely thin.

Now, killing a warhorse does not even yield 300 kilograms of meat, only more than 200 kilograms.

But two hundred and fifty kilograms of refined rice is not two hundred and fifty kilograms after it is made into rice.

An adult can be full with half a pound of food a day.

If cooked into porridge, it can even feed a thousand people a day.

But killing one war horse is not enough to feed a thousand people for a meal.

Therefore, exchanging two hundred and fifty kilograms of rice for a war horse was already a very high condition.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Wei Guang already knew that after a large amount of food arrived, the food would be exchanged for horses, so he was not too surprised.

"Coach, coach..."

At this time, a soldier ran in holding something.

Seeing that many generals were there, he nodded repeatedly to show his goodwill.

After a moment, he placed the things he was holding on the table and said, "This is the daily necessities that God sent me."

"There's shampoo, shower gel, and toothbrush and toothpaste, all for washing."

"There are also women's skin care products, lipstick, nail clippers, washbasins, slippers, towels, bath towels, razors, scissors, ear picks, washing powder, laundry detergent, etc., all of which are daily necessities."

"Xu Dong said these things just arrived. Since there aren't many, just a few truckloads, they'll be delivered to us first."

Tan Junyan's mouth twitched unconsciously, "A few trucks is not a large number?"

Cheng Yong asked curiously, "What is shampoo?"

The soldier picked up a bottle and said, "This is it. It's for washing your hair."

“I’ve used it, it’s very useful.”

Tan Junyan took over the conversation, "Once you've used it, you'll know how good it is."

"One bottle for each of the generals on the scene."

"The quantity is limited, just a few trucks, and the soldiers and civilians can't all be distributed."

"This way, it can be used as a reward for work."

"For example, soldiers carrying supplies outside can choose a bottle of shampoo or shower gel based on how much effort they put in."

"If you work for a certain period of time, you can choose a smaller reward."

"Like nail clippers or a towel."

"That's a good idea. It prevents uneven distribution and people from complaining."

One of the soldiers rolled his eyes and said, "Commander, building city walls and houses will require a lot of manpower."

"Why don't you write a letter to Master Wang Yan and ask him to send more."

"Think of these as rewards..."

"Stop." Tan Junyan interrupted him.

"All of these things require money. Wang Yan supports hundreds of thousands of us, and his funds are already in trouble."

"We only ask for things and can't offer an equivalent exchange. This has already put Wang Yan in a difficult position. How can we actively ask him for these icing on the cake, dispensable daily necessities?"

Upon hearing this, the soldier said with a guilty look on his face: "The commander is right. I was not thoughtful enough."

"I have to go and do some work and earn some money for razors."

Cheng Yong stroked his beard and turned to walk out.

One of the soldiers said, "You are in good health now, can you do it?"

Cheng Yong said without even turning his head: "It has to be done even if it's not possible. You won't have another chance in the future."

"Mr. Cheng is back." Tan Junyan said hurriedly.

"I forgot to tell you that Wushuang has already bought your razor and sent it to you."

"Not only that, she also bought clothes, shoes, and other things for her family."

"Uh, haha..."

Cheng Yong laughed heartily, "It's better to raise a daughter. A daughter knows how to care for her family."

One of the soldiers said sourly: "You old fellow, you are really lucky."

The other soldiers looked at Cheng Yong's proud look and felt envious.

Seeing the soldiers like this, Cheng Yong laughed even more happily.

His chest was held high, as if he was the happiest person in the world.

"Soldiers, there is good news."

Soon, Cheng Yong started to lecture with a megaphone in one hand.

"See that pile of daily necessities? Do you want some?"

"want to."

"Who doesn't want it? Of course I do."

…

The soldiers responded quickly.

"A large amount of refined rice will be delivered in a while. If you want it, work hard for me."

"As long as you perform well, you can choose one to take home."

"There's only so much stuff. If it's gone, it's gone. This opportunity is rare..."
