Chapter 505: Make Up
Shen Yanming chuckled, "After eating, go to bed early. Take a day off tomorrow and go back to work when you are fully recovered."
"Okay, I understand." Zhang Heping responded and went to pick up the pile of snacks.
Shen Yanming took another look, confirmed that there were no mistakes, and left.
He had just taken those snacks out of the space. He had spent a lot of effort to select those without production dates.
If it wasn't his buddy who made the request, he really wouldn't have taken the risk of taking out things produced before the end of the world.
Fortunately, these candies and cakes didn’t even have any brand logos on the packaging, so he could easily claim that they were produced in a small workshop.
But Zhang Heping probably wouldn't care about the source of the food; he just wants to have something to eat.
This was indeed the case. Zhang Heping swallowed the chocolate in his mouth with satisfaction, and only sighed again at the good life of the guards. Yes, he thought these unmarked snacks were benefits given by the guards, and he envied them for a while.
He had almost finished eating and felt sleepy. He reached out to turn off the light and fell asleep again.
Since the beginning of summer, the nights have become extremely short. Before I have slept for an hour or two, the day has already dawned.
Shen Yanming yawned, stood up and glanced at the two little babies, and saw that they were sleeping soundly and had not defecated or urinated, so he left the master bedroom.
I opened the door of the guest bedroom and saw Zhang Heping sleeping soundly with a rosy complexion. I picked up the temperature gun on the bedside table and took a temperature. It was 36.8℃.
"The fever has subsided!" Shen Yanming breathed a sigh of relief and walked out quietly. He closed the door and let him sleep until he woke up naturally.
After walking around the living room, Comrade Lao Shen placed some snacks in an inconspicuous cabinet, and then went out.
What did they go out for? Of course, they were going to change the food. Although Zhang Heping's fever had subsided, people who had been sick would still feel a little weak.
The accident happened here, so Shen Yanming felt it necessary to give him some care.
However, we can't let something appear out of thin air! There is no other way, we can only use the guise of the escort team as a cover.
Of course, he really wanted to go out for a walk. While exercising, he also wanted to see how to exchange for the goodies of the Guards.
Shen Yanming went straight to the agricultural area with a clear goal. He heard that there were livestock farms, breeding farms, fruit orchards, farmland, fish ponds, etc., and even several production lines.
He had only heard of it before, but had never been there. It was his first time there, and he was a little excited just thinking about it.
I heard from my colleagues that the area there is so large that it can be described as a large town. Although this is a bit exaggerated, Shen Yanming never doubts the strength of the escort team.
However, when he arrived, he realized that the other person was not exaggerating at all. On the contrary, he was being modest.
This place is far away from where the guards live and train. It looks like we're almost in the mountains.
The area is so large that you can't see the end of it.
All he could see was the barbed wire fences on both sides of the gate, with a sign on it that read: "High Voltage Danger!"
Shen Yanming greeted the young soldier on duty at the door, showed his ID, and was taken to the transaction office.
After communication, I learned that part of the output here is used as welfare to supply the guards' food, drink, defecation and urination, and part is stored as reserve materials.
Only less than one percent of the output will be used for trading to improve the lives of some guards.
Although the quantity is not large, because of its welfare nature, the guards do not ask for much supplies in exchange, so it is still quite popular among the guards and their families.
However, in order to allow more guards to benefit, the amount that each person can trade is limited here, just like the outside world.
After listening to the explanation, Shen Yanming followed the guard to choose what he needed.
Although almost everything he saw was something he had stockpiled before, he was still shocked by the abundance of supplies the escort team had.
But think about it, if you want to raise such a large guard team, if you don't rely on yourself, can you expect your superiors to allocate food?
I won't talk about it before. Qinghua Country has a stable environment and a pleasant climate. The food collected from the countryside every year is enough to replace the reserve food. But after the end of the world, the food output is getting worse year by year. We can't still go to the countryside to buy food, right? Isn't that leaving people no way to survive?
Although in order to adapt to the end of the world, the alliance has set up a labor team to specialize in production. But you can't always rely on others for everything, wouldn't that be like having your lifeline held by others? Besides, who would complain about having too much food? There's nothing wrong with being self-sufficient.
Shen Yanming was so lost in thought that he fell a little behind the guards.
"What's wrong with you? What are you thinking about?" The guard stopped and looked at Shen Yanming in confusion.
"Nothing, just expressing my admiration for the richness of the flora and fauna here."
The guard nodded. "It's good that you know, but don't tell anyone. If it weren't for the contribution points in your account, the leader wouldn't have let me take you on a field tour. When they come to trade, they choose by looking at the forms in the hall."
Shen Yanming smiled gratefully, "Thank you, I will keep it a secret."
The guard was quite satisfied with his attitude and took him to visit other places. When they finally returned to the trading place, the two of them were holding four black plastic bags.
This was Shen Yanming using up all of his and Qiao An's annual share, which included not only fish and shrimp, but also melons and fruits.
Few people exchanged money like he did, so the person in charge of the transaction office asked him again and again, and after confirming that he really wanted to exchange so much, he recruited a young soldier to help send the things back to the dormitory area.
Because the journey was long and the supplies were heavy, the young soldier drove a supply truck to take him there. After Shen Yanming thanked him, he got on the truck with his supplies.
On the way, the young soldier asked him curiously: "Why did you change everything at once? Are you not planning to have a feast in the future?"
Shen Yanming could only make an excuse: "My friend is sick, and I plan to buy some food to nourish him and improve his life."
He didn't use his wife giving birth as an excuse, because many of the things he exchanged today were not eatable by women who had just given birth.
The young soldier didn't expect this to be the reason. After hearing it, he praised Shen Yanming a lot.
Saying that he is loyal and righteous makes him so ashamed that he wants to find a hole to crawl into.
Although he had this intention, he still made this trip because he needed to provide cover.
The ending is the same, but the original intention is different, so he really can't bear the other party's praise.
Fortunately, the journey was not far and they reached the apartment building in just a few minutes, so he didn't have to suffer any more.
There were many people going out for exercise in the morning, and they were all a little surprised when they saw Shen Yanming getting off the supply truck.
I became even more nervous when I saw him carrying four plastic bags.
Someone came forward and asked, "Yanming, what are you doing? Are you not going to celebrate?"
Shen Yanming smiled and explained, "My friend, the one who sent me home yesterday, had a fever at night, so I'm going to exchange some delicious food for him to nourish his body."
