"Okay, let's buy them all. See if there are any other nice-looking ones, let's buy a little of everything."
Tang Yue liked it very much. She thought the painting technique was very unique and she especially liked this style.
Sun Jinan's jaw nearly dropped. Two "Great Unity" stamps—how many stamps would that buy? But since the company commander was willing, he'd help him buy them.
Wow, the company commander is really rich. He can even buy so many stamps at once.
Around noon during training, Tang Yue saw Chang Yin, whom she hadn't seen for a while. He was even darker than before.
Chang Yin headed straight towards Tang Yue.
"Battalion Commander, you're so dark-skinned."
Tang Yue's tone held a hint of disdain. Chang Yin didn't pay attention to what Tang Yue was saying; spending all his time in the mountains and forests, how could he not be tanned?
"Go to Commander Kang's office."
Tang Yue raised an eyebrow; she hadn't been there in a long time. Seeing it was lunchtime, she asked, "Do you have braised pork?"
Chang Yin's dark face remained unchanged. "Yes, I've already gone to the cafeteria to get it."
Tang Yue then happily followed along.
She's been eating fish at home every day lately, and she feels like she's starting to smell fishy. She's suggested changing things up a few times, but her mother thinks fish is free and delicious, and acts like she's not even listening to her.
Although the money was kept by her, her mother would ask how much money was left every few days and then keep track of the expenses, making her feel embarrassed to spend any of it.
She could understand why Lin Cuicui valued money so much. Her mother had been through so much hardship before. Now that the family had money, although she wasn't worried anymore, she still didn't want to spend any more money.
She wanted to save as much money as possible so that she could feel more secure in her life. Especially after she had worked with her grandfather for a few days and received her wages, and now that she was stuck in the family compound every day, Lin Cuicui started to panic.
When she arrived at Commander Kang's office, Commander Kang was still smiling at her.
"Company Commander Tang, the Fourth Company has made great progress recently, and you deserve a lot of credit for it."
"The commander is too kind."
Commander Kang handed two bankbooks to Tang Yue. "These two medicines have been secretly produced recently. The effects are slightly different from yours, but they're still very effective."
Commander Kang pointed to the two bankbooks in Tang Yue's hand, "These are the rewards for the two prescriptions. The sleeping potion was used less frequently, so I got a 5,000 yuan bonus. The truth serum was very helpful, so I got it this time."
Tang Yue stared at the numbers on the passbook for a long time. She understood what it was and knew it meant withdrawing money from the bank. But she was used to displaying those large sums of money in her spatial storage. It looked more satisfying that way.
"Can't we just give them a large sum of money?"
Commander Kang was puzzled for a moment, then understood what Tang Yue meant. He was somewhat amused and exasperated, "Isn't this passbook the same? You can just take this to the post office to withdraw money later."
Tang Yue pouted; she couldn't get out.
Commander Kang seemed to remember her situation as well, and shook his head helplessly.
"How about I change it to a ten-yuan note for you?"
Tang Yue smiled and nodded hurriedly.
Commander Kang took the passbook back. Tang Yue was about to get out of bed when Commander Kang quickly stopped her.
"I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you in such a hurry?"
Tang Yue sat back down and waited for Commander Kang to continue.
“Every soldier has a mission every month. You’ve been here for two months now, it’s time for you to go out and carry out a mission.”
Tang Yue knew about this, and she had wanted to ask Chang Yin about it. However, Chang Yin had been out of town for some time, and she couldn't find him. Then, remembering her own situation, she didn't pursue the matter further.
"Have any spies been contacting us lately?"
Commander Kang shook his head. "We've arrested quite a few recently, but there are probably still some hiding in the shadows. We don't have any leads yet."
"Then can you let me go out now?"
Commander Kang...
Commander Kang glanced helplessly at Chang Yin, who then coughed lightly.
"There's a mission at sea coming up soon, would you like to give it a try?"
Tang Yue turned her head to look at Chang Yin. A mission at sea?
"Where are you going?"
Chang Yin did not hide anything, "Last time you captured those dozens of spies digging for treasure on the mountain, and then interrogated them with truth serum, they split into different teams and secretly searched for them in various parts of China."
The interrogations outside took a while to complete. Although several groups have been apprehended recently, and a considerable amount has been recovered based on clues, reliable intelligence indicates that Japanese ships will appear in the nearby waters in the next few days to pick up Japanese spies and secretly transport treasure back to Japan.
"So, we're going to intercept them at sea?" Tang Yue suddenly became interested. She thought this mission was good.
Chang Yin nodded with a solemn expression.
"What's wrong? Is there something you're worried about?"
Chang Yin continued, "The Japanese warships are more advanced than ours, and we don't currently have a precise route for their interception. If we fail to intercept their signal in the end, we'll have to send out quite a few warships to patrol."
"Not enough boats?"
Often hidden...
Commander Kang...
That hurts, doesn't it?
However, Chang Yin still admitted it. "Yes, we currently only have 19 seagoing vessels on our side."
Tang Yue...
Talking to her about this is pointless; she doesn't know how to build ships. But, could we borrow some from other countries?
Tang Yuexin felt a surge of joy as she thought about it.
When Commander Kang saw the little girl suddenly become excited again, he had a bad feeling.
"Company Commander Tang, what are you thinking about?"
"Commander Kang, which country has the best ships right now?"
Commander Kang...
