Military Marriage's Unrivaled Favor: Bringing a Planting Space to the 60s

The year isn't the 80s! Su Yan, a base owner from 2048, dozed off while driving and woke up transmigrated to 1961. She became the infatuated, delicate, and ungrateful Su Yan who was leveraging ...

Chapter 70: Spending the Night in the Wilderness

"Excuse me, everyone, please don't blame me."

Su Qingshan was muttering something, which gave Su Yan goosebumps.

He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but Lu Ting always felt that there was a smell of rotting corpse in the cave. The smell was very unpleasant, and the temperature in the cave suddenly became much colder. Unfortunately, he didn't have the third eye and couldn't see anything.

"Do you smell anything strange in the cave?"

Su Yan raised her hand and replied, "I think I smell a dead rat in the left passage. Lu Ting, please shine your flashlight towards the left passage a few times."

Lu Ting shone the flashlight towards the left passage and actually found a dead mouse on the ground.

He said that those people had been dead for so long, how could there still be a smell of corpses? It seemed that he had just overthought.

The three of them walked another five or six meters, and Su Qingshan pointed to the large cave on the left and said, "Okay, don't go any further. This cave is very big. Yanyan, quickly take out all the herbs."

Su Yan waved her hand and piled all the more than 50,000 kilograms of medicinal materials she had prepared in advance into this big cave. Since there was not enough space, the rest were placed in the passage.

A sack can hold more than 200 kilograms of medicinal materials if it is packed with weighted herbs, but it can only hold more than 90 kilograms at most if it is packed with things like honeysuckle.

“Yan Yan, did you write the name of the medicine on the sack with a brush?”

"Yes, it has not only the names of the medicines but also the net weight of the herbs. They can come over and weigh them later to make sure they have just the right amount. The herbs have all been sorted for them, so it will be easier to carry them around later."

Su Qingshan nodded with satisfaction. Yanyan has become more and more careful in doing things as she grows up.

After putting the herbs away, Su Qingshan counted them first, and then discussed with Su Yan in detail the outside price of the herbs purchased today and the price offered by Lao Sun and others.

"Yan Yan, we should be able to make over 40,000 yuan from selling this batch of medicine. Sun Ming and his team don't have that much cash, so they pooled 12,000 yuan this time. The rest will be traded in gold. The current exchange rate for gold is 28 yuan per gram."

"Dad, I don't mind any deal, you're the one making the decision. It's too uncomfortable to stay in the cave, let's get out first!"

The narrow space of the air-raid shelter made Su Yan feel very depressed. She would rather stay in the wilderness than stay in this cave.

"Come on, we'll wait outside for your brother to come."

The three of them walked out of the air-raid shelter and squatted down in an open space not far from the entrance. Seeing that everyone was uncomfortable squatting, Su Yan took out a dozen large sacks from the space.

"Dad, if you're tired, you can lie down on the sack for a while."

"My daughter is really thoughtful. This sack is thick and heavy. Not only can you sleep on it, but it can also be used as a blanket. Lu Ting, turn off the flashlight and take a rest. Wait for Su Ze to come over and then turn on the flashlight."

Lu Ting spread the six sacks that Yanyan had taken out on the ground, pulled Su Yan to lie down, covered another person with a sack, and turned off the flashlight.

Fortunately, there is no grass in this open space, so if a snake comes, it will be obvious, and they don’t have to worry about snakes, insects, rats or ants.

Su Qingshan was tired from work during the day, and at this time he wanted to sleep. He started snoring within two minutes of lying down.

An hour later, Su Ze came over with a flashlight. Seeing his father, sister, brother-in-law and their husbands all lying on the ground and fast asleep, he teased, "Are you guys camping in the wild? The sky is your blanket and the ground is your bed."

"Su Ze, you're here. There are a few sacks over there. You can sleep next to me. By the way, where did you lock your bicycle?" Su Qingshan yawned and sat up.

"The bike is in Grandpa's yard. We'll push it when we get back. If it's too late, we can just sleep at Grandpa's house tonight. Brother-in-law, where are your bikes?"

"Your brother-in-law locked his bicycle at his friend's house." Su Qingshan lied to help his son-in-law.

Fortunately, Su Ze was tired by now and didn't ask any more questions. He took the remaining sacks and spread them next to Su Qingshan. He sat down, curled up his body, covered himself with the sacks and fell asleep.

"A-choo!, A-choo!" Su Yan slept until almost eleven o'clock and suddenly sneezed.

This money is so hard to earn! She caught a cold on her first trip to the wilderness. Is there anyone more miserable than her?

"A-choo! A-choo A-choo!" Su Yan couldn't help but sneeze several times in a row.

Seeing that Su Yan seemed to be really catching a cold, Lu Ting hugged her and sat up, "Yan Yan, let's get up quickly and move our bodies so we won't catch a cold."

"Well, it's time to move your body after lying down for so long." Lu Ting helped her up and started spinning with her.

Su Ze turned on the flashlight and looked at his watch, then said, "Dad, Uncle Sun and the others should be here by now, right?"

Su Qingshan looked at his watch and replied, "It's coming."

"Dad, can I go into the air-raid shelter to check on the herbs?"

"You can go in if you want. I'll go see if they're here."

After a while, dogs in the nearby village began barking, and Lu Ting seemed to hear the sound of a car. "Dad, the car is coming."

Su Ze entered the cave and looked around carefully. Seeing the high pile of sacks, he felt very strange.

Who does this batch of medicinal materials belong to? Why didn’t that person show up today and let his father be the middleman? Isn’t he worried that his father will embezzle the money?

My sister and brother-in-law are here. Could this matter have something to do with them as well?

Sun Ming told the driver to turn off the engine and park the car, and Qian Guoqing also told his nephew to turn off their company's truck.

Sun Ming and Qian Guoqing got off the car at the same time. Sun Ming instructed the two drivers, "You two, stay put and keep an eye on the things in the car. The young comrades in the back of the truck bed will get off later. Let's go and see what's going on first."

"good."

"Old Qian, let's go!"

Sun Ming and Qian Guoqing each held a flashlight in their hands, walking one after the other on the ridge of the country field. Su Qingshan saw two beams of flashlight over there and knew that they had finally arrived.

"Su Ze, come out quickly, Uncle Sun and Uncle Qian are here."

Su Ze walked out of the cave with a flashlight. He shone the flashlight at the two people who were getting closer and closer.

"Dad, it's them."

When Su Yan saw the uncles and aunts who were collecting medicinal herbs coming, she hurriedly stacked the sacks on the ground.

"Lu Ting, thank goodness you're not wearing your military uniform today. If nothing else, try not to say anything and let Dad talk to them."

"Okay, I understand."

Su Yan didn't want Lu Ting to interfere in this matter. What if those two cunning people knew that this matter was related to them, and they would stick to Lu Ting and ask him to do things for them?

As soon as Sun Ming and Qian Guoqing arrived, Su Qingshan took them to the cave to see the goods without saying a word.

"Lao Sun, Lao Qian, you can take a look at the goods first. My friend left the scales here, you can weigh them bag by bag."

"That's not necessary. How long will it take to weigh so many? We trust Lao Su's work. Since you have sorted the herbs, we can just randomly pick half of them and weigh them again."

Su Yan's mouth twitched. Taking half of the samples and reweighing them is also called random? If they like to weigh them, then let them do it.
