"It's okay. Most people don't come to our house. If they do, there's only one person outside. Oh, and I want to go to the Trust Store to buy two cabinets and a desk."
Shen Anan suddenly thought that there was only one bed left in the other room. Since they already had two fans, it was time to add the others.
Well, I mainly want to go to the Trust Store to see if there are any good cabinets, desks, etc.
Furniture made of golden nanmu or red wood (red sandalwood, huanghuali, rosewood, and rosewood are all red wood) is very valuable.
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone is short of food now, the price of selling these things will definitely not be expensive, but they will be worth a lot of money in a few decades.
"You want to go to the Trust Store to buy a cabinet? Everything there is second-hand. How about I take some time to go with you to buy a new one?"
Lu Yanzhou was afraid that Shen Anan would be bullied again if she went out alone, so he thought of taking some time to go out with her.
"No need, aren't you very busy now? I can do it myself." Shen Anan refused.
She just suddenly thought of those possible old items. Besides, these people were helping to transport the cabinets. Lu Yanzhou was so busy every day that there was no need for him to accompany her.
"How are you going to get that cabinet back? Or should we go to the logistics department and get another one?"
Thinking of how much Shen Anan was valued by the leaders, he felt that it would be no problem for their family to go to the logistics department to ask for two more cabinets.
Shen Anan shook her head: "We can't take the things given by the logistics department away after we stop living here. What if I want to live outside in the future? Besides, I just got a fan from the logistics department. If I go to ask for a cabinet again, people will gossip about me."
If the things distributed by logistics leave here in the future, they will not belong to her. Only the things she buys herself can belong to her.
She plans to buy a courtyard house in the future, so she has to start looking for good furniture now, otherwise it will be very expensive later.
"They're just tables and cabinets. What's there to take away?" Lu Yanzhou didn't pay much attention to them.
In his eyes, cabinets and tables were just common items and he didn't consider them antiques at all.
Shen Anan knew at a glance that this person probably hadn't noticed that there were antiques in the tables and cabinets.
She whispered, "You know what? I heard that most of the furniture in the trust store comes from the homes of the elderly and the young, the kind that can be passed down for generations."
"Oh? Do you recognize this thing?"
Lu Yanzhou also reacted instantly. Although he had not seen many antiques, the cabinets and beds seemed to be valuable.
Shen Anan shook his head and then said proudly: "I don't know, but I know roughly how to choose."
There are no books on antiques in her space, and she has no time to learn about antiques recently.
I had only heard of a few things about wood in my previous life, such as yellow pear wood with ghost face patterns, small-leaf red sandalwood, and agarwood.
Although she doesn't understand much, she has wood-related abilities and can sense the quality of wood through her abilities.
"How do I choose?" Lu Yanzhou asked curiously.
Shen Anan smiled and replied, "Of course, it starts with the weight and pattern. The better the wood, the heavier it will naturally be. The more exquisite the pattern, the more attentive the craftsman was, and the quality will definitely not be bad."
At this stage, everyone is poor and has no food to eat. Those families who have no food to eat have to sell these old things to buy food. It is a good time to buy these things.
Lu Yanzhou thought about it after hearing this and felt that what Shen Anan said was correct. The cabinets in his hometown and the cabinets in the house now were examples.
Then he praised Shen Anan: “My wife is smart.”
"Of course. Who am I? By the way, you ate lunch in the cafeteria. Was the food delicious?"
She suddenly thought of the cafeteria.
If I go to training later, I definitely won’t have time to come back to cook, so I’m afraid I’ll have to eat in the cafeteria.
Lu Yanzhou thought back to his lunch today and shook his head. "The canteen's rations have been reduced, and they're mostly just coarse grains. I was planning to take the team up the mountain for a walk."
He felt very glad that he had listened to his wife and took half of the food home to cook himself.
The reduction in canteen rations is secondary. The most important thing is that most of the food is coarse grains, and there is almost no oil or water.
He planned to take his team members into the mountains for training to see if he could get some meat.
"You're going up the mountain? When?" Shen Anan asked in surprise.
The whole country is short of food now, and a reduction in rations is inevitable. Fortunately, she still has several hundred kilograms of food in her space, enough to last for a while.
But this man actually wants to go up the mountain. Could he be going hunting?
"Don't you still have a few days? I thought I'd take them up the mountain for some training."
He wanted to take his team out for some exercise and running-in, and going on a mission was the best way to do that.
It was just that there were no missions for them to perform now, so he planned to take them to the mountains to hunt.
"Is that so? Fine then!"
It was good that this person was away for a few days, as she could use these days to finish the things she hadn't finished yet.
For example, buying the missing furniture for the second bedroom, meeting Director Xie’s father, and getting acquainted with the middleman of the old lady.
It’s a pity that her space is just a room, time is still and she can’t farm, otherwise she would have to farm some land in the space.
No, the space cannot be used for farming, but her special ability can!
She has tried to use her basic wood-related abilities to grow plants, but the yard is too small, so she can only grow some vegetables.
Thinking of this, Shen Anan asked: "Yanzhou, is there any place in the surrounding mountains where we can farm?"
Now the army is vigorously cultivating land on its own, and she doesn’t know whether the surrounding mountains are fully planted. She also wants to find a place to grow some food.
"All the land that can be opened around our military region has been opened up." Lu Yanzhou shook his head and replied.
Although he had only been here for a short time, he had a clear understanding of the situation here.
In addition to the training area, the troops have planted crops at the foot of the mountain.
Deputy Captain Luo of the Second Regiment injured his leg while going out to open up new land.
"Are there any remote or smaller places?"
She thought of the meal replacements, double steaming, triple steaming and triple boiling methods she had read about in books about this era...
Apart from looking more delicious or being a substitute for food, these things have basically no nutritional value.
Just thinking about it makes her sad. It's really miserable to have no food.
"Really not, but our troops have planted a lot of land, and we should be able to provide a lot of food by the end of the year. Things should be much better then."
There is really no other way now, so he plans to organize the team members to train in the mountains and order some extra meals for themselves.
As a soldier, it is really not possible to go without meat for a long time.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. If you get up early tomorrow, boil some eggs for yourself and take them with you. Sister Liu from Deputy Captain Luo's family brought me some eggs today. It's so hot out here, they'll go bad if left out for too long."
Seeing that there was really no other way, Shen Anan chose to give up the topic.
