Chapter 291 Have we met somewhere before?



Chapter 291 Have we met somewhere before?

The amount of supplies far exceeded their expectations.

With so many things, how many trips would it take for them to move them back?

I guess even 20 trips won’t be enough to move it!

The most important thing is that they keep moving things into the base, which will definitely attract the attention of those who are interested.

By the time they are targeted, it will be a foregone conclusion.

"What now?"

Except for Han Ying and Lu Yuan, the other people realized for the first time that having too many supplies could be a hassle.

"With so many items, we definitely can't move them back in a few days. Besides, this place is so far away, it's not convenient to move them back and forth."

"But it's not safe to leave it here. What if someone comes looking for it? Wouldn't that mean that we're giving it away for nothing?"

"And what about those people who are detained downstairs?"

...

The few of them discussed for a long time but could not come to any conclusion.

"Actually, I have an idea, but the supplies each of us gets will be reduced by half."

Seeing that they could not come to any conclusion, Han Ying spoke.

"It's better to lose half of it than to be targeted. What's the idea?"

He Xiu looked at the supplies in the rooms in front of her. Even if she could only get half of them, it would still be a considerable number.

"We'll find a base to cooperate with, tell them about this place, and negotiate terms. We'll split the supplies in half, and we won't need to worry about the people being held downstairs anymore."

"I think the base should be willing."

Han Ying glanced at everyone. This plan was something she and Lu Yuan had discussed in advance.

This will not only solve the current transportation problem, but also solve the problem of material transfer when moving to Jiangcheng in the future.

"But we and the base..."

Before Lin Ting finished speaking, she looked at Han Ying.

Since Han Ying could think of this solution, she must be able to communicate with the top management of the base, so they don't need to worry about this issue at all.

"We will know now whether the base is willing to cooperate with us."

Han Ying took out a walkie-talkie from her backpack, the one that Gu Yuanping gave them.

This place is only about 3 kilometers away from the base and is still within the coverage of the walkie-talkie.

"So the question now is, are you comfortable with revealing this to the authorities? Are you willing to share half with the authorities? Everyone present here will have a share of the supplies here, so we have to ask for your opinion."

Lu Yuan pointed out the main problem.

"Let's vote by raising our hands."

Seeing everyone looking at each other in confusion, Han Ying took a step back.

There are so many supplies here, half of them need to be given to the officials, and then they will divide the rest equally.

This is equivalent to everyone getting half the supplies, and no one will not feel the pain.

"I agree!"

Qin Qinghai raised his hand first.

"I agree!"

Lin Ting also raised her hand.

"Then we agree."

Naturally, He Xiu and her mother-in-law had no objections.

"In that case, let's just make it this way. We'll move back tonight to avoid any more hassles."

Lu Yuan picked up the walkie-talkie and directly pressed Gu Yuanping's channel.

It would be better to discuss this matter with the deputy base commander.

Lu Yuan told them about the situation here and their idea of sharing the supplies equally with the base.

Gu Yuanping was silent for a while and then said okay, he would send someone over immediately.

When people came over, Han Ying suggested that everyone move the things they wanted to take back with them first.

These do not need to be shared equally with the base.

Qin Qinghai moved a box of masks, a box of protective clothing, a box of commonly used medicines and a box of charcoal.

It seems that he also knows what he will face next, and the life-saving masks and protective clothing are the most important.

The things Lin Ting moved were similar to those Qin Qinghai moved.

He Xiu and Wu Tingfang did not ask for charcoal, but instead asked for an extra box of protective clothing.

After all, there are many people in their family, and these things can save lives but there is nowhere else to buy them, so of course they have to stock up more if they have the chance.

If it were in the past, Qin Qinghai, Wu Tingfang and the others would definitely carry the food back.

But now they are not short of food, what they lack are life-saving protective clothing, masks and medicines.

Everyone took it, so Han Ying and Lu Yuan had no choice but to take one.

However, what these two carried were different from the others. They carried two boxes of canned food and two barrels of cooking oil.

You can’t take away too much, so everyone should be sensible.

The soldiers were obviously much faster than them and arrived in half an hour.

The team leader was an acquaintance, but Lu Yuan knew him, but he didn't know Lu Yuan.

He was a platoon leader they rescued at the mall when the refugees entered the city.

At that time, the platoon leader and other soldiers inside were not wearing any clothes, so Han Ying had never seen him, only Lu Yuan had seen him.

The platoon leader is Gu Peng, and he is Liu Hefeng's subordinate.

There were quite a few people coming, about 30 in total.

It should be Gu Peng who brought the entire platoon here.

Five of them were assigned to take those detained in the room back first, while the others went upstairs to move the supplies.

"Then I'll leave this place to you. We'll go back first."

Seeing Gu Peng leading the team up, Lu Yuan stepped forward and greeted him.

The things that the few people wanted to take away were not heavy, so they could be moved downstairs at once.

After the few people left, Gu Peng stood there and watched their backs as they left.

He felt that the voice of the man just now sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where.

After securing the boxes on the trailer, they walked back towards the base.

After returning home, everyone moved their belongings back and then took their access cards to the base registration point to register.

There were quite a few people registering, and there was a long queue.

However, the team moved forward very quickly and it was their turn in more than half an hour.

After registering, I went to the water collection point to pick up water for three days.

Han Ying took a look and found that the water was not as clean as before.

It should be the impact after the earthquake.

Of course, it is also possible that the water output from the well is less, so the water pumped up becomes turbid.

No matter what the reason, turbid water is a sign that water resources are becoming increasingly scarce.

It was already past four o'clock when I got home. I took off my protective suit and disinfected my whole body. When I was about to take a shower, I heard a bell outside.

This was installed by Lu Yuan next to the door outside the wall after the earthquake, so that when someone comes looking for him, he just has to ring the bell.

Lu Yuan went downstairs and opened the door. It was the platoon leader Gu Peng, who brought him a list that detailed the materials they had just moved.

Lu Yuan took a rough look. He didn't know the other things, but the quantities of masks, protective clothing, medicines, charcoal, etc. were correct.

After Lu Yuan received the list, Gu Peng did not leave immediately.

He looked at Lu Yuan and asked, "Have we met somewhere before?"
