Chapter 34 A Small Favor, Black Bull (1/2)



After Gu Yunyang finished all that, he went into the base space and organized the supplies, keeping everything in perfect order.

He has a slight obsession with cleanliness and doesn't like messy things.

He kept the items that needed to be kept fresh in the bedroom, and the rest in the hallway.

It is 30 meters long, more than two meters wide, and about four meters high.

This area is large enough for his temporary use.

"Let's leave it at that for now. If we don't have enough space, we can always open up that small storage room we just opened."

After Gu Yunyang finished doing all that, he returned to his dormitory at the police station.

When they arrived at their destination, they also encountered Zuo Qiulin.

Gu Yunyang thought for a moment, then asked, "Is there any progress on that matter?"

Zuo Qiulin hesitated. This matter needed to be kept secret and it wasn't appropriate to tell outsiders.

However, since Gu Yunyang had helped him, it wouldn't be right for him not to say anything. So Zuo Qiulin carefully considered his words, trying to figure out what to say.

Gu Yunyang spoke first, laughing, "No need to say more, I know you guys are disciplined. I wasn't really curious, I just asked casually when I saw you. Well, you're busy, I'll head back now. I'll be going to the countryside for about ten to fifteen days, I'm not entirely sure."

Gu Yunyang plans to sneak into Gu Anning's old house tonight, then take a stroll around Houhai Lake to get some fish and trade them for some other things.

He wanted to get some milk powder.

If there's no milk or yogurt available right now, some milk powder would be good to supplement our nutrition.

Zuo Qiulin nodded, still a little embarrassed, and said, "That's fine too. If you need any help from me, just let me know."

Gu Yunyang hesitated for a moment before saying, "There really is one."

ah?

Zuo Qiulin had just said it casually, but of course he was willing to help, so he only paused for a moment before nodding and saying, "Go ahead."

If it wasn't something difficult, Zuo Qiulin was indeed willing to help.

After all, Gu Yunyang had initially helped capture a spy and later helped draw a portrait of him, which had indeed been a great help to them.

He's willing to help with small favors.

He felt that Gu Yunyang wasn't the kind of person who didn't know when to advance or retreat, so he wasn't too worried.

Gu Yunyang said directly, "It's like this, there's been drought everywhere this year. I'm worried that the rural areas in the south are the same. I have some money on hand, from a job I changed, and some rural allowance, which is a few hundred yuan. So I'm thinking of going to the Northeast to buy some grain and mail it to Guangdong Province in the south. Can you give me a letter of introduction?"

The natural disasters have been ongoing for nearly six months, especially in the northern regions where the drought is particularly severe.

It seems the south has also been affected by the disaster. Food supplies were already insufficient, and now they are even scarcer.

Northeast China is a major grain-producing region. Although there is only one harvest a year, the fertile black soil results in relatively high grain yields per mu (unit of land area).

I can understand why Gu Yunyang has this idea.

Doing this kind of thing feels a bit like speculation and profiteering.

However, Gu Yunyang said he wanted to exchange some money for it, and it's not like it's something that can't be done.

Zuo Qiulin considered it for a moment before nodding in agreement: "Okay, I'll get you one. Where are you planning to go?"

Gu Yunyang thought for a moment, realizing he wanted to visit more places, so he tentatively said, "I mainly want to go to Heilongjiang Province, but if I have the chance, I'd also like to visit Liaoning Province. Brother Zuo, could you help me get a few blank letters of introduction? Don't worry, I'm definitely not a bad person. Besides, I'll definitely be back in ten days to wait for the notice to go to the countryside."

He patted his chest confidently. Despite his young age and years of lack of food and clothing, he was thin and weak, but had a good constitution and was clearly a handsome young man.

With so many factors combined, Zuo Qiulin considered that the other party really didn't have that much time and certainly couldn't do anything bad.

So he agreed.

"However, you must not do anything reckless."

"Brother Zuo, rest assured, I've always been the kind of person who treats others with the utmost respect. I would never lie about something like this. I would never do anything that would not only cause me hardship but also implicate Brother Zuo."

Having said that, Gu Yunyang took his leave.
