After leaving the base, the two followed standard procedures. First, they found a secluded spot and stored the helicopter and aviation fuel (jet fuel) into their spatial storage. Then, taking advantage of the early hour, they went to a relatively distant place and found several wild boar dens to practice on. They put half of the boar fuel into their spatial storage and took the other half to the Azure Dragon Base.
It was past nine o'clock at night when we arrived at the Qinglong base. The place was brightly lit, but there was no noise. Everyone was busy doing their own thing.
"Boss, sister-in-law, what brings you here?" Cang Jun saw the two of them from the window upstairs and immediately ran downstairs.
"I came here on business, and I brought you some wild boar while I was here," Cang Yu replied.
The Qinglong Base is currently lacking in military strength. At most, there are only about a hundred people who can go out to hunt wild boars. Some of them have to stay behind to guard the Qinglong Base, so the number of people who can actually go is even smaller.
Therefore, wild boar is truly a luxury item for the current Qinglong Base. After all, to be prepared for unforeseen circumstances, they need to save some for canned goods, which can be stockpiled for future base construction.
The two of them brought more than twenty wild boars. They'll kill two or three tomorrow so everyone can have some meat.
Cang Jun was overjoyed to hear that it was a wild boar.
"Boss, sister-in-law, thank you. I'll have someone come and unload it right away." After Cang Jun finished speaking, he quickly found people to unload the wild boar from the truck.
At this moment, Cang Jue also came down after hearing the news. He had been busy assisting in the research room, but as soon as he heard that Cang Yu had arrived, he immediately came down.
Yes! He needs to rest too, and the boss needs someone to keep him company!
"Boss, sister-in-law," Cang Jue greeted the two.
Lin Yue nodded: "Hello!"
She wanted to reply when Cang Jun came over, but the two of them didn't give her a chance to speak.
"Boss, sister-in-law, what brings you here?" Cang Jue asked.
The boss said he wouldn't be coming over anytime soon, but he's here again after only a few days. He must have something on his mind.
"Your sister-in-law wants to trade supplies with the Yuquan base and is coming to find you..."
"Boss, what supplies do you need? Just tell me, and I'll have someone order them right away," Cang Jun shouted before Cang Yu had even finished speaking, as soon as he heard Lin Yue wanted to change things.
He shouted loudly, and the others who were working nearby came over as soon as they heard him.
"That's right! Boss, just tell us what Miss Lin wants, and we'll go and count it right away," everyone said with smiles.
Lin Yue didn't offer any opinion, but simply looked at Cang Yu.
These people probably misunderstood Cang Yu's meaning. She wasn't familiar with them, so Cang Yu should explain things clearly, even though she didn't need the supplies from the Azure Dragon Base.
"No need, it's your sister-in-law who wants to exchange some personal items with the Yuquan base. We'll take care of the supplies..."
Cang Yu wanted to explain himself, but it seemed like everyone had conspired to not let him finish speaking, and they interrupted him again.
"Hey! Boss, it's a private matter! It's just exchanging some things. We can't afford to do that. Even if we can't, we'll find a way to get Miss Lin some clothes."
Now it wasn't just the people who were standing nearby; everyone who heard the news put down what they were doing and gathered around. There were probably more than a hundred people inside and outside, all smiling and nodding in agreement.
After the last purge, only a little over 400 people remained at the Qinglong Base. More than 100 went to the Yuquan Base, leaving 300 and 12 people here.
Half of the people gathered around, offering to exchange supplies for Lin Yue's belongings. It seemed that no one was considering whether exchanging supplies for her, given their already scarce resources, would make their lives even more difficult.
Lin Yue couldn't quite describe her feelings. After her parents passed away, she had almost forgotten what it felt like to be subjected to the insults and rumors from relatives and friends, the malice from other people in the neighborhood, and the accusations from strangers.
She must be a little touched now!
Seeing everyone talking amongst themselves while no one paid any attention to Cang Yu, Lin Yue couldn't help but laugh, feeling that Cang Yu had no authority at all.
"Everyone, stop for a moment." Lin Yue raised her voice, and when everyone quieted down, she continued, "We're not here to pick up supplies. We just want to borrow three large trucks from the base and ask Cang Jun and Cang Jue to help deliver some things. That's all."
The Qinglong base originally had four large trucks, the kind that were over ten meters long and were hijacked on the road before. One of them has been given to the national base, so there are three left here.
It must be said that Cen Shen was quite capable before; no one knows where he got those four large trucks, but he used them all for robbery, with a group of people in each of the four directions.
If this money were used for something worthwhile, the Azure Dragon Base might be much better off than it is now.
“Alright, Miss Lin, but if you need more, feel free to come to the base to get more.”
"Yes, Miss Lin saved half of our lives. Not to mention supplies, if we don't have enough people, you can come and pick whatever you want!"
Upon hearing this, everyone else laughed, but Cang Yu kept a cold expression.
That's well said; it's best not to say it again.
What does "not enough people, so pick whatever you want" mean? One of them is enough.
"Alright, everyone, go home! It's too late, get some rest, and we can get back to work tomorrow." Cang Yu was finally able to speak in a complete sentence.
Everyone agreed, but few actually listened and went back to their posts.
It's still early, they need to do more work so that their lives can get better and better.
Everyone dispersed, and the four of them went up to the seventh floor.
Two rooms were reserved on the seventh floor, one for Cang Yu and one for Lin Yue. Apart from Cang Jun and Cang Jue personally cleaning them, no one else went in.
She hadn't been here since the last time the Azure Dragon base was cleared out, but she had learned some things from Cang Yu during their casual chats.
The current Azure Dragon Base is very different from the previous Azure Dragon Base; no one has gone out to rob anymore.
The base sends people out to hunt wild boars every day. Besides slaughtering two wild boars each day for everyone to eat, the rest are made into canned food for storage.
The factory that makes canned food used to be the factory where people lived. Now they only have more than 300 people. The hotel rooms are big enough for two people each, so they all stay in the hotel rooms.
Of the two spared factory buildings, one was used as a canning factory.
The equipment was moved from a processing plant by the group, and the canned goods were also empty cans provided by the manufacturer. Cang Yu decided that after this batch of canned goods was used up, he would go to another factory to get some empty cans.
As for the ingredients, they're all produced in a factory; how could they be missing these things?
Of course, Cang Yu didn't participate in any of these things. He was with her at the national base, so it was impossible for him to be in two places at once.
However, he didn't do nothing. He provided the accurate coordinates of various factories, saving Cang Jun and Cang Jue a lot of time when they went out to find supplies.
Besides going out hunting and searching for various supplies, the eighth floor of the hotel has now been converted into a laboratory for the people who were rescued before to conduct various research.
