Qiao Qingqing was also happy for Lan Fang.
After all, she and Comrade Zhuang Xiaobai were actually interested in each other, but due to their different personalities, the relationship progressed slowly.
In order to celebrate the little sister and her lover being together, Qiao Qingqing added another poached egg to the stewed leeks and fried a total of ten poached eggs.
After eating, Qiao Qingqing took out two large bags of dried seafood from the room that was usually used as a warehouse.
Qiao Qingqing's heart ached slightly.
Damn it Qiao Chuan, if you hadn't reported it, I wouldn't have to give away these two big bags of dry goods!
Now, in order to prove her innocence and to give an explanation to those who helped Fu Ying and others when they returned, she had to donate these useful materials to the army as she had said in the Revolutionary Committee that morning.
"Squad Leader Qi, these dried seafood are what I collected from the brigade these few times. You can take them back and consider them as my donations to the army. I am so grateful for your help today, otherwise I don't know what I would have to go through... I hope the captain can accept this little gift."
When Qi Datou saw the two large snakeskin bags full of dry goods, his eyes widened.
"This, this is so embarrassing."
Qiao Qingqing shook her head. "Although these were all bought with money, I have already spread the word in the Revolutionary Committee. If I hadn't said that I would donate these things to the army, Liao Yifan would definitely not give up. No matter what, he would have to follow me home to see if there is really any dry goods at home that I can buy now... I appreciate this favor. Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back, not to mention..."
She looked at Fu Ying and said, "Everyone made a mistake because of me today. I will definitely be criticized when I go back. I hope that the little food I donated can calm the leader down and get a lighter punishment."
"Comrade Qiao Qingqing, you mean well, but have you forgotten one thing?" Fu Ying looked at her helplessly. Under her puzzled gaze, he smiled and said, "We have a rule in our army that we will not take anything from the masses. You are making a mistake by doing this."
Qiao Qingqing was stunned.
Squad Leader Qi looked regretful and said, "Alas, Advisor Qiao, it's not that I don't want to be grateful, but the army's rules are very strict and I dare not violate them. However, we need to buy things anyway, so we can buy these dry goods from you."
Fu Ying frowned: "Isn't this another handle for the Revolutionary Committee?"
Qiao Qingqing suddenly had an idea, "That won't happen..."
So she offered a selling price that was lower than the purchase price.
Speculation is buying low and selling high, she is buying high and selling low!
The most important thing is that if the crime of speculation and profiteering has not yet been established, the state’s crackdown on speculation and profiteering will not yet be the most stringent.
Therefore, even if Liao Yifan wanted to cause trouble for her after knowing this, there was not much reason for him to risk offending the military and arrest Qiao Qingqing again.
…
night.
Everything was quiet.
At the edge of the field, there was a figure running fast.
The figures walked across the fields, crossed the river, and came from one village to another.
Finally, she stopped in front of an abandoned land temple.
The land temple is located under a big tree, with lush green trees behind it.
A thick cloud passed by in the sky, covering the moon, and it became dark in front of the land temple.
When the light came back on, the figure had disappeared.
