"This is from Captain Li. He said he can't take your things for free."

Shen Yanming did not refuse, and after accepting it, he said helplessly, "He's just being overly polite."

"Of course." After saying that, he boarded the helicopter and prepared to fly away.

Shen Yanming looked at Wen Chaohui, thinking to himself, "Wasn't he supposed to be delivering some documents? Why hasn't he made a move yet?"

Jiang Shulian was so engrossed in looking at the fruit that she forgot about the important matter. Realizing what had happened, she quickly called out to the other person, "Please wait a moment!"

He gently nudged Wen Chaohui, waking him from his reverie that "the two of them have a good relationship." Then the two of them stepped forward together and handed a piece of paper to the guard.

The other party took it, glanced at it, and nodded: "I will help pass it on, don't worry."

"Okay, take care, goodbye." Jiang Shu waved to the pilot and then hid to the side with Wen Mengguan.

Within two minutes, the propellers were spinning rapidly, and the helicopter left the spot, leaving only a few people behind.

"Come and see what good stuff we have!" Bi Qiaoan said with a smile when she noticed that the two kids' eyes were practically glued to the box.

Shen Yanming nodded and opened the box.

Inside were two packets of dried fruit, one of mulberries and one of wild raspberries. The packaging had the words "For An'an's Warmth" written in bold black lettering.

Shen Yanming chuckled, took out two packets of dried fruit, and said loudly, "Look, these are from Uncle Skye."

The two children happily accepted it, looked at it, and said excitedly, "Thank you, Uncle Skye!"

Shen Yanming patted their heads: "Uncle Skye is too far away to hear. Next time you talk, thank him in person, okay?"

The two children nodded and said, "Okay!"

Then he looked at the box and found two durians inside. Shen Yanming picked out a large one and gave it to Wen Chaohui: "Thank you, Alliance Officer Wen, for giving me the opportunity to speak with the capital. Please take this back and have a taste."

Wen Chaohui wanted to refuse, but he felt his hands and feet were out of his control. Seeing this, Jiang Shulian quickly accepted it with a smile and thanked Shen Yanming.

Shen Yanming waved his hand and said gently, "No need to thank me, no need to thank me. Anyway, there are two, so we'll each have half."

Wen Chaohui nodded, smiled at Shen Yanming, and then left with Jiang Shulian, feeling embarrassed.

The family of four who remained watched his hasty retreat and chuckled.

Bi Qiaoan lowered her voice and asked, "Why do you think Li Sikai would send us durians? This fruit doesn't seem to be very common."

Shen Yanming suppressed a laugh and replied in a low voice, "If it were apples or lychees, they might be worried that we wouldn't be able to eat them."

After all, with so many people, who wouldn't give you one or two? But durians are different; they're big, and there are only two. Even if you give one away, you'll still have half left.

Believe it or not, Li Sikai actually thought so. He was worried the couple wouldn't get to enjoy it, so he specifically chose this kind of fruit that wasn't widely consumed in the capital.

The saplings were reserved in advance by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences; they are of excellent quality and have a high yield. If they are only for the consumption of the big shots, they can stock up on quite a few every month.

To keep a low profile, the couple simply put the spiky thing in their backpack and carried it home. As for the box they had used to store the fruit, since it wasn't marked, Shen Yanming took it to the office building, thinking he could put something there for everyone.

By this time, Wen Mengguan had regained his composure. After exchanging a few words with Shen Yanming, he sent the family of four home.

Afterwards, they closed the office door and secretly opened a durian with a knife, enjoying a delicious meal together.

Neither of them considered taking it back to share with their families, since there were too many people around and they were afraid of losing the secret. Of course, they were also tempted by it.

So that afternoon, a faint, unpleasant odor wafted from Wen Mengguan's office. Many people came to knock on the door to ask what was wrong, but Wen Mengguan only gave one answer: "Nothing, I just watered the plants in the office with some fertilizer."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shulian looked at the durian in her hand, feeling somewhat conflicted.

The analogy of me being the flower and the durian being the fertilizer seems reasonable at first glance. But there's something odd about it.

But Wen Chaohui didn't mind at all, and stuffed durian into his mouth in big bites.

Jiang Shulian's eyes flickered, realizing she was being really dramatic. It's just an excuse, what's the big deal?

Seeing that the durian flesh was being consumed quickly, Jiang Shulian didn't dare to delay and also started wolfing it down.

After Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan took the little one back, they didn't immediately open the durian. The family of four rested for a while, ate some food, and then used a knife to cut the durian into several segments.

They took out a piece of durian and arranged it on a plate, each person eating a piece. After tasting it, they all came to the same conclusion: "It tastes almost the same as what you get outside."

In other words, there is no space bonus.

Bi Qiaoan pouted, "That's really a bit of a pity."

"It's alright. Right now, Qinghua Kingdom needs quantity; as for quality, it doesn't seem to be that important," Shen Yanming said.

In the capital, General Li has successfully received ten bottles of honey.

He eagerly scooped out a spoonful, dissolved it in warm water, and handed it to Li Sikai: "Xiao Kai, try it quickly, see if it works?"

Li Sikai smiled and nodded, but didn't take it seriously. However, to avoid upsetting her uncle, she still smiled and took a sip of honey water.

After taking a sip of the sweet and fragrant drink, Li Sikai felt his stomach warm up. He wondered if he was imagining things, so he took another sip, and then one sip after another.

"How was it? Did it work?" General Li asked expectantly.

Li Sikai nodded: "It works. I feel full of strength in my limbs and my mind is much clearer. Although it can't compare to my state before I got the space, it's much better than it was a while ago."

"Really? That's good, that's good. Xiao Shen really lived up to my expectations. Xiao Kai, you can keep all of these. Drink a little every day, and your body will slowly recover."

Li Sikai raised an eyebrow in surprise and asked, "Why do you think that what Shen Yanming sent is useful?"

Li Zongmengguan laughed heartily and, without hiding anything, briefly recounted his interactions with Shen Yanming after the apocalypse.

“I always felt he was hiding something, but since he aligned himself with the alliance, I didn’t press him for details.”

"Uncle, do you think he also has a space?"

General Li smiled meaningfully, shook his head, and said, "So what if it exists, so what if it doesn't? As long as it benefits Qinghua Kingdom, that's all that matters. I don't care what its secret is. But you, having spent months with them day and night, don't you feel anything?"

Li Sikai thought for a moment and said, "I think they are the kind of people who are particularly lucky. They can always offer constructive suggestions or find a way to break the deadlock at crucial moments."

But they probably didn't have any space, otherwise they wouldn't have been in such a miserable state during that period. Besides, An'an and Nuannuan were only two or three years old, yet they never mentioned this topic. Either they never exposed it to the children, or they genuinely didn't have any.
