Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...
Chapter 398 Looking for Helpers
After being shocked, Li Sikai immediately came back to his senses and looked at Yuan Ruoxi with a strange expression, "Honey, what are you doing?"
"Ah?" Yuan Ruoxi put her hands behind her back as if frightened, and said with some stammering: "No, nothing, I, I just got a little excited when I saw these sacks, and I want to see what they are filled with."
"You don't want to put them into space?"
"How, how is it possible? Am I that kind of person?" Yuan Ruoxi tried her best to deny it, but her guilty tone and wandering eyes showed that she was lying.
But he couldn't say it directly because he had no evidence. Moreover, no one could take out the things Yuan Ruoxi put into the space unless she wanted to.
He gave Sun Sainan a look, and the other nodded, and then he started to investigate. He looked around and then opened a few sacks at random.
"Boss, the sacks contain either rice or soybeans. They are not worm-infested or moldy. They are of very good quality."
"How many bags are there?"
"Well, I didn't count them clearly, but there are probably more than 20,000 bags stacked one on top of the other, and this one at the door..."
Needless to say, everyone knows what it means. With such a big gap, who would be blind?
Seeing that everyone was staring at her, Yuan Ruoxi's face flushed, and she argued: "I, I was like this when I came in!"
Well, as long as you are happy...
Everyone felt disdainful in their hearts, but they could only pretend not to know.
"Okay, let's take inventory first, put Yuan Ruoxi into the space, and send it to the material warehouse as soon as possible." Li Sikai made the decision.
"yes!"
Yuan Ruoxi was originally very happy to hear that no one was pursuing the matter of the sack that disappeared at the door, but when she heard that she was going to function as a mobile warehouse, she suddenly felt a little panicked.
"Weren't they all sent back by supply trucks before?"
"Xiao Geng hasn't come back yet. Besides, your space is about the same size as this one, so you can finish loading it in one trip. Why do you have to wait for someone to come back? It might even cause trouble."
"But, but, I still have a lot of my own things in my space, and I can't put so many in." Yuan Ruoxi explained stutteringly.
Li Sikai understood and asked with a smile: "Then how much can you fit?"
"Probably, one, half?" Yuan Ruoxi used her consciousness to pile the sacks she had stolen together with the stolen goods, and said as she looked at the remaining space.
"That's fine, half is half. At least it will allow Xiao Geng to make fewer trips and save some gas money."
Seeing that no one was holding on to her, Yuan Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief. Then several guards began to count, and asked someone to put it into the space while counting.
Not until most of the food had been gone did Li Sikai lead his men out of the warehouse and sit outside waiting for Geng Zhixing.
But not long after, he asked Sun Sainan to stay with Yuan Ruoxi, while he and a few teammates wandered around nearby, because he always felt that things would not be that simple.
He thought, since there was food in this small warehouse, then could there be hidden supplies in other warehouses as well?
During special periods, he didn't care whether these things had owners or not. All those buried in the ruins belonged to the alliance and were then used for the people.
As expected, after searching for more than ten minutes, he finally saw a "granary" sunken into the ground under the aluminum alloy plate. The full granary of wheat grains made his eyes glow with anger. Without thinking twice, he asked someone to lift the steel plate and jumped into the wheat pit from above.
It was two or three meters high, and he just jumped in and buried most of his legs.
He happily grabbed a handful of wheat grains, which looked so beautiful in their golden color! He picked up a few and stuffed them into his mouth. Oh wow, they were so crunchy!
Haha, that’s great. How long can we last with so much wheat?
Li Sikai's teammates were also extremely happy. They jumped in one after another, shouting and yelling.
It wasn't until a few minutes later that they calmed down and started to stare at each other. Damn it, people have jumped down, how can they get up?
There was nothing I could do but shout Sun Sainan, but when people came over, they were also dumbfounded.
He was alone, how could he get four grown men up here? Not to mention that he had no tools, even if he had tools, there was no fulcrum for him to use!
"Well, go over there and call Captain Li Gangtie over and ask him to bring his men and drive the supply truck." Li Sikai said somewhat embarrassedly.
He couldn't get so much food back by himself, so he had to find help. In this case, he might as well share the credit with his familiar brothers.
Sun Sainan nodded, asked Yuan Ruoxi to guard the small warehouse over there, and left first.
Shen Yanming was digging for supplies with Li Gangtie and Zhou Qi when he saw a burly man running towards him in a hurry.
He frowned and thought, could it be that something has changed?
That's right, when he was digging for supplies just now, he saw a group of people heading towards Xichen Company. But those people didn't drive and were wearing their guard uniforms, so he didn't pay attention.
Anyway, for him, as long as the person who found the grain was a guard and had no intention of hiding anything, it would be fine. As for whether it was Li Gangtie or not, it really wasn't that important.
"Captain Li, may I ask who is Captain Li Gangtie?" Sun Sainan shouted, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Yes, what can I do for you?" Li Gangtie put down the tools in his hand and looked at the visitor with a puzzled look on his face.
"Hello, I'm Li Sikai's teammate. He asked me to come find you." After greeting Li Gangtie, Sun Sainan pointed in the direction of Xichen Company and briefly told them about the discovery of the grain.
"Captain Li Sikai saw you when we first came here, but work took priority, so he didn't come to disturb you, thinking that we could get together again after we return."
"Skye is here? Isn't he in Dijing? Why is he coming to Su City?" Li Gangtie asked in surprise.
Zhou Qi stepped forward to interrupt, "Old Li, didn't this comrade say that he found food? Let's take people there first, and we can talk on the way."
"Oh, yes, yes, food is important. Look how confused I am." Li Gangtie slapped his forehead, and the smile on Dahei's face disappeared. He shouted, "Brothers, stop what you are doing, take your weapons and move to another position."
The people around couldn't hold back when they heard the word "food". During this period, the supplies were not enough to cover the expenditure. They didn't want to work after eating porridge every day. Fortunately, God has mercy on them. Looking at this situation, I'm afraid there will be a lot of food!
So, everyone put on a bright smile on their face and followed Sun Sainan towards the destination.
But as they got closer, Li Gangtie still couldn't see Li Sikai. He asked, "Where is your captain? How come there is no sign of him? Are you lying to me?"
"No, no, our captain, he fell into the pit!"
"What? That guy actually fell into the pit?"
"Oh, to be precise, he was so excited that he jumped down by himself!"
-------Off topic-------
Today I saw a lot of cute comments saying that Yuan Ruoxi should die soon. The author said that he also wanted to write her to death, but the plot has not reached that point yet...
As for the materials she embezzled, don't worry, they will be put to good use one day.
You know, a female supporting character with bad character is destined to be cannon fodder, sooner or later, there is absolutely no way to escape...
