The "three major items" refer to a watch, a bicycle, and a radio. The "three turns and one sound" refer to a bicycle, a sewing machine, a watch, and a radio.
In Lu Ting's mind, if he were to give, he would definitely give the best.
Thinking that the other party hadn't mentioned this when they met, Lu Ting sighed, realizing that he had been too negligent in this matter.
When I get back, I'll make up for the missing "three turns and one sound".
Let's see. The subsidy for this mission should be several hundred yuan. Since it's to be given to the other party, I definitely can't take that savings book back.
Lu Ting raised his head, discreetly put the letter away, coughed twice, and met their gazes as if nothing had happened.
He said in a deep voice, "Are you two... short of money right now?"
What does this mean?
Dai Yong'an scratched his head. "Brother Lu, what does this mean?"
Ji Hongwen patted him on the shoulder and said helplessly, "Brother Lu is asking us whether we have any money right now!"
"Oh, oh, I see."
Dai Yong'an is unmarried and has only his father and mother. Apart from that, he has no other relatives. He doesn't spend much money, and he puts all the subsidies he gets from missions into his savings account.
But the passbook wasn't on him either. Dai Yong'an said, "Brother Lu, I have money, but it's hidden in the compound and I can't take it out now."
Lu Ting: "It's nothing."
Ji Hongwen took out a few ten-yuan bills from his pocket. Seeing this, Dai Yong'an patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well done, little Ji, you even carry money with you on a mission."
Ji Hongwen said calmly, "This is called responding to all changes with constancy. What if we need it when we go on a mission?"
"Too."
Dai Yong'an nodded emphatically.
At this moment, Ji Hongwen raised his head and said seriously, "Brother Lu, are you... asking us for money?"
Lu Ting didn't feel embarrassed at all and readily admitted it.
"Yes, I'm a little short on cash right now and I was thinking of borrowing some from you."
Dai Yong'an was surprised, "Brother Lu has gone on so many missions and made so many contributions. He just married his wife. Logically speaking, he should have a lot of money. What's going on here..."
Lu Ting looked directly at the two of them and interrupted, "I want to buy her a three-wheeled radio and a speaker."
"Three turns and one sound?"
Dai Yong'an sounded puzzled.
Ji Hongwen, who was standing next to him, explained what the "three turns and one sound" meant. Dai Yong'an seemed to understand something. "So when Brother Lu and his wife got married, they were in such a hurry that they forgot to buy these things for his wife."
Lu Ting nodded noncommittally.
"Brother Lu, what happened to your savings from those years?"
Lu Ting said in a deep voice, "They're all in the passbook. I've given that passbook to her now."
Who she is is self-evident.
Thinking of his gentle and beautiful sister-in-law, Dai Yong'an immediately realized that Lu Ting wouldn't use the money in his savings account to buy a three-wheeled vehicle and a radio. He slammed his fist on the table and said:
"Brother Lu, don't worry. When I get back to the compound, just tell me how much money you need, and I'll get it for you."
Ji Hongwen also said, "Yes, Brother Lu, just tell me how much you need, and I'll go back and get it for you."
Lu Ting thought for a moment, "I have a few bicycle tickets, but we'll talk about the price of the other items when we get to the store."
After all, these items are not cheap.
"good!"
The two responded in unison.
Outside the military vehicle, the sky was a clear, azure blue.
The scenery changes accordingly.
...
Gobi Desert.
As noon approached, the temperature rose.
Su Miaoyan and Deputy Political Commissar Qu have also arrived at the test site.
Theory without practice is ultimately superficial.
Several experts were conducting a final evaluation of the results they had spent several days working on.
Su Miaoyan's gaze fell on the sand barriers, such as the grass squares and sandbags, not far away.
Yan Huaili, wearing a safety helmet and sun-protective clothing, his rough fingers holding a black pen, observed and took notes.
"Grass checkerboard sand barriers can increase surface roughness, reduce wind speed, and stabilize shifting sand."
"Sandbag barriers are more robust and durable, and can function for a long time in harsh sandstorm environments."
Seeing the experts focused intently on the experimental results, Deputy Political Commissar Qu swallowed his words and turned to Su Miaoyan with a smile, saying:
"They're documenting things on-site right now, Xiao Su, just wait a moment."
Su Miaoyan smiled faintly and said, "It's alright, Deputy Political Commissar Qu. It's only right that the experts are working hard."
Seemingly upon hearing the name "Xiao Su," or perhaps upon hearing the voice of Deputy Political Commissar Qu, several experts who were engrossed in taking notes suddenly looked up and turned to face the two individuals.
Deputy Political Commissar Qu's smile froze instantly as he greeted the group, "Professor Yan, Professor Lin, Professor Li."
All three are authoritative experts in desertification control and afforestation, possessing profound knowledge in this field and can be considered industry leaders.
He is also a recognized workaholic.
At this moment, the group stopped what they were doing and walked towards Deputy Political Commissar Qu.
"This is……"
The group remained silent. Deputy Political Commissar Qu was also seeing this kind of scene for the first time, and he couldn't help but feel a little flustered.
Yan Huaili strode forward through the sand, asking in surprise, "Deputy Qu, you were just calling out for Xiao Su, where is Xiao Su?"
Lin Fengxue also asked, "Yes, where is Xiao Su?"
Li Changfeng glanced at the two people beside him, adjusted his glasses, and didn't say anything.
But he was staring intently at Deputy Political Commissar Qu, as if trying to see right through him.
Deputy Political Commissar Qu moved a few steps to the side, his gaze falling on Su Miaoyan behind him. "The little Su you're talking about is right here!"
Even though the group had prepared themselves mentally, they were still speechless with astonishment when they saw such a young and beautiful girl.
From the very beginning, I heard that the girl who proposed this idea was a capitalist's daughter, and not only that, she was also very young and had studied abroad.
The group hadn't taken it seriously at first, but when they actually saw it, they couldn't help but change their expressions slightly.
In her previous life abroad, Su Miaoyan had dealt with many foreigners of special status. In addition, she had a good relationship with Professor Xue and Elder Bian, so she was naturally neither humble nor arrogant at this moment.
She extended her hand and said, "Hello, experts. I am Xiao Su, also known as Su Miaoyan."
"Xiao Su, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Yan Huaili laughed loudly, his eyes full of admiration. Indeed, the younger generation of China is truly full of talent!
When will you introduce this girl to Xiao Xu? Xiao Xu works at the General Hospital of the Military Region, and he doesn't even have a girlfriend. He's almost thirty, and his uncle is really worried about him!
Lin Fengxue and Li Changfeng also extended their hands. After shaking hands, Lin Fengxue said directly:
“Xiao Su, we’ve put everything you said into practice. They say practice is the only truth of knowledge. Come and see for yourself, isn’t that true?”
Su Miaoyan didn't stand on ceremony and walked straight over.
The small patch of grass-checkered sand barrier in front of me gradually collided with the images on my laptop.
Su Miaoyan peered through this small patch of ground.
