Chapter 224: Cross-time and space linkage
Luo Jiu closed his pen and said, "What's the matter? Sit down and tell me, how is your situation now?"
Qiao Zhiyu smiled and said, "It's pretty good. Now we have food and drink, no oppression, and everyone is very enthusiastic about production every day. I'm just worried that something might happen to you, so I always ask you to come in and check on the situation.
By the way, I just heard grandma say that she wants to make cotton-padded clothes for the soldiers. I want to discuss with you whether we can give it to you and let us make it for us."
Luo Jiu was stunned, "You guys do it?"
"Yes, everyone has always wanted to contribute, and I think things like making cotton clothes for our seniors are particularly meaningful and conducive to the spiritual unity within the commune."
Luo Jiu curled his lips, "You are starting to think like a leader now."
Qiao Zhiyu smiled shyly, "I read the book you left for me when you left every day. I'm afraid I won't do well, so I study hard."
Luo Jiu nodded and said, "Your suggestion is good, but this will increase the work of the members.
The principle we set of 'eight hours of work, eight hours of rest, and eight hours for yourself' cannot be changed.
How about this, I will make the military uniforms for you and reduce other production work. We must not let you work too hard.
We will take care of the food and other supplies. We will go out to buy them in the next few days. Please make a list for me of what is missing."
Thus, a cross-temporal linkage between the end of the world and the 1930s, with space as the transit station, unfolded vigorously.
Qiao Zhiyu received needles, thread, cotton cloth, etc., and began to lead everyone in the commune to make military uniforms the next day.
Grandma complained: "I finally found some work to do, and it was taken away from me."
Cheng Yaoyao smiled and said, "How old are you? Take a break when you have time."
Everyone was eating breakfast and chatting. Jiang An asked Luo Jiu, "What are your plans for the next step?"
Luo Jiu said: "Today General Yang sent people to inquire about the Red Army. We will stay here for a few days to deal with internal issues and go to the county town to purchase."
"Purchasing?" Zhong Cunzhi asked hurriedly, "Do you have money?"
"Yes," Luo Jiu thought for a while, "Silver dollars can still be used now. We have silver dollars, currency, rice dollars, and pounds."
These are all leftovers from the previous time and space. Not only these, there is also a large box of promissory notes from major banks in Ouzhou.
That’s a huge sum of money, and I don’t know if I can still use it now.
Luo Jiu thought that if he had the chance he must go to Ouzhou to exchange a few tickets.
Jiang An said: "If the money is not enough, there are some gold bars on the ship, you can use them."
Zhong Jialing smiled proudly, "Do you still think we are children? Your daughters have already become rich enough to rival a country, so there is no need to be a freeloader.
Keep the little money you have for your retirement. If it’s not enough, come to me.”
The couple smiled lovingly and shook their heads, "The little guy has become arrogant because he has achieved success."
After breakfast, they returned to the cave to find General Yang and Political Commissar Zhao.
Luo Jiu put the list of traitors in a folded historical document book and handed it to the two men.
"Please take a good look at this explosive news. It will probably take you another day to digest it.
You guys take a look first, let's go to the county town to buy some things, and then we can discuss this matter when we come back."
"Go to the county town?" Zhao Cunman said hurriedly, "You are unfamiliar with the place. I will find a few soldiers, change into civilian clothes, and go with you. If there is an emergency, it will be easier to deal with it."
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "That's not necessary, we can handle it. Besides, the five of us are enough, too many people will only attract attention.
How about this, if you are worried, let Instructor Leng accompany us and just show us the way."
Just like that, Leng Xiaoyun changed his clothes and went out happily with the five people.
Originally, I planned to walk there in order to keep a low profile.
As everyone walked down the mountain, Leng Xiaoyun introduced the situation nearby.
"The nearest place to us is Ying County, but the market there is small, and I don't know if I can buy everything you want.
Fengcheng is big, and you can buy everything there, but it’s a bit far from us, so a day is enough for a round trip.”
Zhong Jialing thought this was not good and asked hurriedly, "One round trip a day, does that mean we have to walk for a whole day?"
Leng Xiaoyun nodded sincerely, "Yes, Fengcheng is fifty miles away from us. It will take a day to walk there, right? Even here we have to take a shortcut over the mountain. If we take the main road, we won't be back until midnight."
"Oh my God!" Zhong Jialing immediately grabbed Luo Jiu, "We can't just walk there like this, right? We open our eyes early in the morning and walk all day?
You haven't even joined the Long March yet, so why are you the first to start?"
Cheng Yaoyao also said: "Even if we walk down, we are too rushed. It will be dark before we can even finish our shopping."
Leng Xiaoyun wondered, what other options did she have? She asked, "What if we don't leave? We can't drive the devil's motorcycle, can we?"
Luo Jiu looked at Leng Xiaoyun and said, "If we suddenly drove a car out of the woods and said we found it, would you believe it?"
Leng Xiaoyun shook his head frantically.
Luo Jiu asked again: "Do you think we are good people?"
"Of course!" Leng Xiaoyun said with a smile: "You killed so many devils, of course you are good people. I have never seen people as powerful as you, you are simply amazing!"
Luo Jiu pursed his lips, "Then it makes sense for us to have some superpowers, right?"
Leng Xiaoyun looked at their serious expressions and finally realized that something was wrong, "What...what superpowers..."
Luo Jiu stretched out his hand and motioned her to look to the side. The originally empty ground suddenly had two more cars.
That was the car they used in the previous time and space.
Leng Xiaoyun widened her eyes in surprise. She bravely stepped forward and touched it. The cold touch of the steel made her shudder instantly.
Luo Jiu opened the car door and said, "Get in the car, we can talk on the way."
Leng Xiaoyun knew the way, so Luo Jiu asked her to sit in the passenger seat.
Zhong Jialing drove the car and Luo Jiu sat in the back seat.
Feng Qi, Fubao and Yaoyao got on the car at the back.
Two cars were speeding on a dirt road in the countryside. Leng Xiaoyun pointed the way from time to time, occasionally looking back at Luo Jiu, and seemed to want to say something but stopped himself several times.
Luo Jiu couldn't help laughing, "Just ask whatever you want to ask."
Leng Xiaoyun: "Does Political Commissar Zhao know about superpowers?"
Luo Jiu thought that there was a traitor in the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces. Although Leng Xiaoyun was a martyr listed in history books and was trustworthy, she was a very honest person. It would be bad if someone tricked her into revealing her secrets.
She said vaguely, "Actually, this isn't really a superpower, but Political Commissar Zhao knows about it. It's complicated, I'll explain it to you later when I have the chance. You have to keep this a secret and don't tell anyone."
Leng Xiaoyun smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, since Political Commissar Zhao knows about it, this is a high-level secret. You told me because you trust me, so I will definitely not tell you.
Even if someone threatens me, bribes me, or points a gun at me, I won't tell you. Do you believe me?"
