Chapter 1008: Space Boss Sends Cotton
Ye Wengui was in a good mood these two days. Looking at the food brought back from outside the base, he felt confident. After classifying and counting, he went to find Wen Chaohui.
Wen Mengguan looked at the amount on the list and smiled like a chrysanthemum. After asking Ye Wengui to keep it properly, he called Su Sibin and Ming Jiakang.
"I think you know what I want to talk to you about. Tell me what you think."
"What else can I think? Just keep it secret." Ming Jiakang said without thinking.
Wen Chaohui looked at Su Sibin and saw that he had his mouth tightly shut and said nothing.
Wen Chaohui sighed, "I know that no one wants to report it. But we are not ordinary people, we are base commanders. Have you ever thought about whether the Imperial Capital will settle accounts with us if the matter gets out one day?"
"This is our extra income. What does it have to do with them? What accounts are they settling?" Ming Jiakang was a little excited.
Wen Chao would raise his hand and press him to make him relax.
"That's just what I said. But even if they didn't say anything, they would probably feel uncomfortable. Lao Ming, it's not just Haishi that's suffering. Many bases outside can't hold on. We're relatively lucky."
"I know, but I won't give up."
Wen Chaohui smiled and pointed at the list on the table: "Have you ever thought about where all this food comes from?"
"I thought about it, but it's useless. God knows where they came from. We investigated the site and found no trace of human intervention."
"I think it might be a team that farmed deep in the mountains. Seeing that the base was unsustainable, they offered to help."
Wen Chaohui nodded: "What you said makes sense, but I think this is a gift from heaven. Maybe it will come back in the future."
Wen Chao would smile cunningly, as if everything was under his control.
Su Sibin and Ming Jiakang felt something was wrong when they heard this, so they pulled Wen Chaohui's arm and asked, "Old Wen, do you know something?"
Wen Chaohui chuckled and said in a low voice: "I think we have space ability users here too."
"What! Old Wen, are you kidding me?"
"I didn't believe it at first, but when I think about it, who else can come up with so much food in this environment except for those with space abilities? I guess they will send more food in the future."
"What if it doesn't work?" Su Sibin asked.
"Then let's keep it a secret." Wen Chaohui said with a smile: "I want to help other places, but I won't ignore my own people."
Su Sibin and Ming Jiakang looked at each other and nodded: "If that's the case, it doesn't matter if we report it. But Old Wen, didn't you check who the space ability user is?"
Wen Chaohui raised his eyebrows and shook his head, saying, "Since she doesn't want to be exposed, what's the point of digging her out? What if the Imperial Capital finds out and takes her away? Will you be able to benefit from it? Just think about it in your mind, but don't say it out loud."
The two thought about it and agreed. However, "If we report it, won't the Imperial Capital know about it?"
"Well, we can say we don't know where it came from. Even if we ask them to investigate, we can say we can't find anything. Can the Imperial Capital still take our supplies away?"
The two nodded: "Okay, you decide."
After Su Sibin and Ming Jiakang left, Wen Chaohui clasped his hands together and prayed to the sky.
"That mysterious man, you must send more food, so that I can report it without any psychological burden."
This guess of his was provided by Jiang Shulian. He took it seriously and was looking forward to it because he was just casually saying it that day.
But then again, even without the superpowers, they still made a fortune. He suppressed the matter and had a reason to convince himself.
Time passed by little by little, and in the blink of an eye, it was two months later. The weather turned cold again, below zero, with temperatures of 30 or 40 degrees, which was very unbearable.
There was a large pile of cotton in the space. Because it was light and would fly away when the wind blew, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan took out all the woven bags to store the cotton.
To prevent fingerprints from being left on the woven bags, the two of them washed the bags and hung them in the shade to dry. They stuffed the bags with cotton using their rubber-gloved hands. They never touched the bags themselves.
After the equipment was installed, it was placed in the planting area for half a month. He learned from Qi Xili that there was no one guarding Yunling Mountain, so he took advantage of the dark and windy night, fully armed himself, and sneaked to place the supplies.
The passage was made when he and Qi Xili were looking for a cave together last time. At that time, he found a hidden place to relieve himself in the dark, which was convenient for this operation.
Bi Qiaoan used the zoom function in the space to help him observe whether there was anyone watching nearby. After confirming that it was safe, Shen Yanming walked to the front of the cave and reached out to release the cotton in the space.
After putting it away, we moved on to the next cave without delay. We worked until dawn and finally filled all the caves.
There is not enough cotton in the space, so we fill it with food. But no matter what is filled, it is useful to the base.
When the first rays of sunlight in the morning penetrated the clouds, Shen Yanming left the cave and found a secluded place to enter the space. He had breakfast with his wife, son and daughter before coming out.
After sending An An and Nuan Nuan to school, I fell asleep on the bed and didn’t wake up until the afternoon.
The base discovered something there about ten days later. They sent people to pull it out and found cotton.
Everyone was excited immediately. They had been wearing cotton-padded clothes that were not warm enough for so long and had been freezing for a long time. Now they could change. New cotton is always warmer than old cotton.
Wen Chaohui heaved a sigh of relief when he found out, and waved his hand to distribute the cotton according to the number of people. But no matter how much cotton there was, it was not enough to go around, and many guards voluntarily gave it up and left it to the residents of the base who needed it more.
This time, Su Sibin and Ming Jiakang completely believed that there was a person with superpowers in the base. That person really cared about their concerns and gave them what they needed.
Wen Chaohui didn't waste any words and reported the discovery of a large amount of supplies to the Imperial Capital. However, cutting the quantity in half was a little thoughtful.
When General Alliance Officer Li heard about this, he was quite surprised and immediately thought of Shen Yanming. But according to Wen Chaohui's statement, Xiao Shen didn't have the "time to commit the crime" at all, so he thought about it and gave up, not investigating it.
"In that case, how about halving the supplies allocated by the Imperial Capital?" This kind of thing needs to be discussed. If you are too tough, you might hurt the other party.
Wen Chaohui had a large amount of supplies coming in, so he didn't care about it at all. He nodded and agreed. Chief Alliance Officer Li was very satisfied, thinking that now they could help more places. Haishi could take it easy for now.
Before we knew it, it was the Spring Festival again. Since food was still plentiful in Hai City, everyone had a good New Year's Eve dinner. Everyone was drooling at Li Sikai's space on TV. Because of the food shortage, the space boss became the object of everyone's envy.
However, Li Sikai’s space still has not been upgraded. I don’t know if it is because of insufficient faith or not the right time.
