After having dinner at a division headquarters in Sichuan Province, the young clerk who hosted them sent them to a guesthouse not far from the division headquarters.

"Comrades, I'm sorry, our division headquarters currently has no place for you to rest, so we've specially written a note for you to rest in our division headquarters' guesthouse. You can rest well in the guesthouse these nights, and you can also visit our city during the day..."

As he said that, the man asked the staff of the guesthouse to book eleven double rooms for the twenty-two of them. He said hello to Officer Jiang who had come with them in the car and left.

Secretary Jiang sent the man away, turned around and looked at the people still standing in the lobby, grinning, "We still need to transport supplies, and those supplies require their division commander to personally issue a note. And their division commander happened to be called to a meeting yesterday, and it is estimated that he will not be back for three or four days, so..."

At this time, someone took over and said, "So, we have to stay in the guesthouse for the next few days?"

Secretary Lin waved his hand. "No one asked you to stay in the guesthouse the whole time. Didn't you just hear what they said? You can go out and look around for the next few days. Anyway, their division commander won't be back for three days at the earliest, so we have to stay here for at least four or five days before we can continue our journey."

"Okay, we've been traveling for over a month, you must be tired, right? Let's go and rest..."

After saying that, Director Jiang turned around and took their division's driver, took a key from the bar and went upstairs.

Upon hearing this, Chu Tian and Chu Min looked at each other, and surprise flashed in their eyes. In four or five days, they could go and collect the supplies they wanted.

Lying in bed at night, Chu Min thought for a moment and asked, "Little brother, where are you going tomorrow?"

Chu Tian opened his eyes, thought for a moment and then said, "I plan to walk around the city first, and then see if I can go to the surrounding towns..."

"Where's my second brother?"

Chu Min put his hands under his head, looked at the ceiling and said slowly, "I want to go to the supply and marketing cooperative here first to check the prices here, and then look for the black market here..."

Chu Tian raised an eyebrow and didn't say anything else. He was actually very conflicted. Should he ask for help to find someone to take the supplies he bought back? If he did, he was afraid that Chu Min would ask who to take them. But if he didn't say it, Chu Min probably wouldn't be able to get much this time, and even if he did, he wouldn't be able to sell them for much money...

The dawn in Sichuan is two hours earlier than in Xinjiang. It was just after five o'clock. After Chu Min finished washing up and returned to the house with the toothbrush holder, he saw Chu Tian had also gotten up.

"Little brother, are you awake?"

Chu Tian buttoned up his shirt and looked back at Chu Min and nodded, "Why are you up so early, second brother?"

Chu Min grinned, "What's early? The state-owned restaurant downstairs has already started serving breakfast..."

Chu Tian paused, "Is there a state-owned restaurant downstairs?"

Chu Min nodded. "Well, when I went to the first floor to wash up just now, I met the front desk clerk. She told me that the official who sent us here last night had already told us that we can eat three meals a day at the state-owned restaurant in the guesthouse. We just need to bring the meal tickets."

As he spoke, he took out three meal tickets from his pocket and handed them to Chu Tian, ​​raising his eyebrows and saying, "But the meal tickets are only issued for one day at a time. These are yours."

Chu Tian took it and put it in his pocket. He bent down and searched for his toothbrush holder in the package, waving his hand without looking back.

"Thank you, second brother."

"Then I'll wait for you downstairs?"

"No need, this is a rare opportunity. Second brother, go shopping after dinner. You don't have to wait for me!"

"That's okay too."

When Chu Tian finished packing and arrived at the state-owned restaurant on the first floor of the guesthouse, Chu Min was gone. He must have gone out for a walk. Chu Tian was not in a hurry. He handed in his meal ticket at the cashier and waited for his meal.

After dinner, Chu Tian returned to the front desk of the guesthouse and looked at the female staff sitting at the counter.

"Comrade, I'd like to ask, what factories are there in our city?"

"Factory? We have clothing factories and textile factories in our city..."

Hearing her mention the factory, Chu Tian was stunned, "Is there no winery?"

The woman was stunned. "Brewery?"

"There are no distilleries in the city, but Yibin has the Wuliangye Distillery, Luzhou has the Luzhou Distillery, and Mianzhu has the Jiannanchun Distillery..."

Chu Tian frowned, "Which winery is closest to our city?"

The woman thought for a moment and said, "Mianzhu? Yibin and Luzhou are about the same distance apart!"

After a pause, he asked again, "Comrade, why are you asking this?"

Chu Tian rolled his eyes, took out a handful of White Rabbit from his pocket and placed it in front of her, smiling and saying, "I want to buy some local wine, but..."

The woman knew that Chu Tian was a truck driver. Truck drivers often smuggled goods, which was something everyone knew. She quickly put the candy into the drawer, thought for a moment, and then approached Chu Tian and said.

"If you want all the liquor, I can't help you. But if you just want Wuliangye, you don't have to buy it locally. I know a truck driver from the Wuliangye Distillery who regularly delivers liquor to supply and marketing cooperatives in various regions of Sichuan Province..."

Chu Tian blinked, "When can it be delivered? We can't stay for a few days."

The woman was about to say something when she saw a man coming down from the second floor. She smiled and said, "Comrade, you're lucky. He happened to be here last night."

Then he called out to the man, "Brother Wang, come here..."

Chu Tian turned around and saw a short but energetic man. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is the delivery driver you mentioned the one in front of you?"

The woman nodded, "It's him."

The man approached and asked in confusion, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

The woman looked at the door and saw people coming and going. After thinking for a moment, she whispered, "Brother Wang, this is it. This comrade wants to buy some wine from your winery. What do you think?"

The man looked Chu Tian up and down, and seeing that he was dressed in new clothes and did not look treacherous, he thought for a moment and raised his eyebrows.

"Brother, how about coming back to my room and talking?"

"OK···"

Chu Tian was initially skeptical, but as the man approached, he believed him. Why? Because the man smelled of alcohol, not from his mouth, but from his clothes. He must have been exposed to alcohol frequently, otherwise how could he have been stained with alcohol?

"Sit anywhere..."

The man opened the door of his room, walked in and sat down on the edge of the bed.

Chu Tian didn't hesitate. He moved a bench from the wall and sat one meter away from the man.

"Brother, what's your last name?"

Chu Tian, ​​"Brother Wang, my last name is Chu."

The man nodded, "Brother Chu, how many bottles of wine do you want?"

Chu Tian raised his eyebrows. "How many bottles of wine do I want? What does this mean? Can I have as many as I want?"
