Chapter 397 This Luck
Not to mention Bi Qiaoan, Yuan Ruoxi was in a very good mood after leaving.
She said, how could anyone not envy her spatial ability? Look, here is another country bumpkin who has never seen the world.
When she first saw the woman whispering with the guard, she thought they were making fun of her and looking down on her.
She was about to step forward to settle the score with great rage, but she heard Bi Qiaoan say, "You're so awesome, I'm so envious." She knew that the other party didn't know about her dirty deeds yet, so, in the other party's envious gaze, Yuan Ruoxi raised her chin proudly.
I thought to myself, "Sure enough, East City is the right place for me. In less than two days, I, the 'East City Fairy', will be famous all over the world and become the envy of everyone!"
However, the task given to her by Li Sikai is not easy to complete!
That's right, in order to leave the suffocating land of South City, she agreed to many very harsh conditions.
Not only did she have to work at least ten hours a day, but she also had to strictly limit the amount of materials she could dig out every day. If she didn't meet the target, she would either work overtime or go back to South City. She didn't want to go back and face Tao Jianian, so she had to obey.
"Where are we doing our mission?" Yuan Ruoxi stopped and asked.
The original plan was to go to Ye Qiuqiao, but Li Sikai thought of Shen Yanming and said, "Let's go to Xicheng Garden." It was not far from where Shen Yanming and his team were going to perform their mission today, so there should be a chance to meet them.
Yuan Ruoxi didn't comment and followed them into the car. Not long after, they arrived at the mission location.
Looking around, there was a group of guards about 5 kilometers away from them. Li Sikai knew that it was the team led by Li Gangtie, but he did not go up to greet them. Instead, he and Yuan Ruoxi moved the steel bars and cement on the ground to look for buried supplies.
It is said that some people are born with good luck. Yuan Ruoxi actually walked towards Xichen Company step by step without any guidance.
Because of the assistance of space, the progress can be said to be rapid. Soon, the supply truck driven by Li Sikai was full.
He called to Geng Zhixing: "Send this truck of supplies back first."
"yes!"
After Geng Zhixing left, Yuan Ruoxi sat down on a stone and took out a fan from the space to fan herself.
"I say, why don't you hold on a little longer? You've already completed one third of it, just finish it in one go." Li Sikai sat next to Yuan Ruoxi and advised.
Yuan Ruoxi shook her head. "Please give me a break. I have already dug so much in just one hour. If I continue working, you will probably let me go straight away after I finish in three hours?"
Li Sikai was embarrassed and touched his nose, "The more capable you are, the more work you should do!"
"I've worked hard enough. I can do the work of at least ten guards. Besides, you only give me two kilograms of rice as compensation every day, which is not even enough for ten guards to have a meal. This is not the way to exploit people, right?" Yuan Ruoxi rolled her eyes to the sky, feeling really aggrieved.
"That's not the case. After all, the guards can protect themselves, but you still need a few of us to accompany you. So, when you make the comparison, you have to include us." In fact, Li Sikai also knew that they gave too little, but they couldn't afford to give more.
Seeing Yuan Ruoxi pouting, Li Sikai continued, "At least you still get two kilograms of rice every day. Do you know those guards? They don't get any other material compensation except porridge every day. They pay so much, but in the end they just get two months' salary extra."
In fact, Li Sikai had no idea about the arrangements in Su City. He said this just to make Yuan Ruoxi feel more balanced.
He felt that since he had been with her, he had told more and more lies and his lying skills had become more and more sophisticated. In time, he would be able to become a master of lies.
"If the reward is a profit sharing, will it motivate you to turn the entire Su City upside down?" Li Sikai asked, looking into Yuan Ruoxi's eyes.
This question has been lingering in his mind for a long time. Every time he sees Yuan Ruoxi slacking off, he would ask himself this question, wondering if he had done something wrong.
Yuan Ruoxi wanted to nod, but that deep gaze seemed to be able to expose all lies, so she dared to tell the truth, "No, my space is so small, I guess if I search a few streets, the rewards I get can fill up the space.
Do you think I would continue to work in this situation? I am not stupid, I will do whatever is comfortable for me.
Don't tell me you can save the reward and give it to me when I need it. Don't think I didn't notice that the porridge has become thinner these past two days. Can you really watch the people starve and not touch my spoils?
You will certainly persuade me to consider the overall situation, and then promise me to resupply afterwards. But I won't believe it. I won't feel at ease with something I don't hold in my hands.
Since those materials won't be mine anyway, there's no need to go to the trouble of grabbing them, what do you think?"
Li Sikai smiled, he looked into the distance without responding.
Yuan Ruoxi felt bored, so she stood up and walked away aimlessly.
As she walked, she saw the small warehouse. The walls around it were basically intact. Yuan Ruoxi rolled her eyes and walked over without saying hello.
She thought that since this place was so well preserved, there might be some good stuff inside. When she opened the door, she saw a room full of sacks.
She didn't know what was in the sack, but she had a hunch that it was something good.
He took out a pair of scissors from the space and cut a hole in the sack directly. Well, it was that simple and crude.
Then I saw that there was some kind of grain inside. Um, please forgive Yuan Ruoxi, an agricultural novice, for not having seen rice that has not been husked.
She took out a grain of rice, peeled off the outer skin, and finally revealed the crystal rice grains. She was so excited that she couldn't help but scream.
After she finished shouting, Yuan Ruoxi realized that something was wrong. She had finally found this batch of food, and there was no one around. It was a great opportunity to embezzle, but she actually...
Forget it, forget it. She should hurry up and collect some things into the space. Collect as much as she can. Once Li Sikai arrives, it will be difficult for her to do anything.
She put her hand on the sack, and it disappeared instantly, and then one by one, she collected them into the space.
Because she was in a hurry, she didn't look carefully and naturally didn't notice that there were still a lot of soybeans inside.
When Yuan Ruoxi was about to collect two more sacks of food into the space, Li Sikai and his men finally arrived and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Yuan Ruoxi had her hands on the sack, feeling embarrassed and not knowing whether she should take them back.
Several people were shocked by the half-full warehouse of supplies in front of them, and didn't notice the embarrassment on Yuan Ruoxi's face at all.
