Shen Yanming smiled and said, "They had no choice; otherwise, they probably wouldn't even have been able to eat the remaining 90%."
Ye Wengui was puzzled, so Shen Yanming explained to him: "When things get busy, there's no day or night. I'm the one who takes care of the wheat seedlings in the field. My energy is limited, so I can only pay some compensation to reduce the physical labor."
"What do they do?"
"One's a doctor, the other a policeman, neither of them are married. Once they are, I won't take care of their land anymore." Since the information was easy to find, Shen Yanming didn't feel like he was betraying his teammates.
Ye Wengui nodded, "They're all doing a great job, contributing to the country!"
"Yes, they are busier than me. I'll help them as much as I can."
Shen Yanming took out the receipt and handed it to Ye Wengui: "Has the wheat I sent over been ground into flour?"
"It's been ground. The wheat itself is quite dry, and it becomes crispy after being dried a little. What, do you want to take it with you?"
"Yes, a friend came over, so I asked him to take it back with him," Shen Yanming said vaguely.
Ye Wengui assumed it was one of his two friends who had contributed to Qinghua Kingdom, so he smiled and nodded, "Let's go, I'll go with you to get it."
Shen Yanming grunted in agreement and then went to get the car with Ye Wengui.
Logically speaking, such a small job could be easily handled by a junior soldier, but Captain Ye felt that Shen Yanming was a good match for him, so he always personally received him.
Shen Yanming was also very grateful, as this saved him a lot of trouble.
They drove to the processing workshop and asked someone to help them unload several bags of wheat.
The same old rules apply: weigh the items, register them, and issue a receipt.
Finally, he took Shen Yanming's previous receipt and exchanged it for a certain value of premium grade 2 powder.
As for why it's not the first grade, well, it goes without saying. Since it's all refined grain, there's no need to waste that little bit of wheat bran.
cough!
Shen Yanming expressed his deepest gratitude to the young soldier who helped load the flour onto the truck. However, his gratitude was limited to words and gestures.
I wanted to get something reasonably priced, but then I realized I shouldn't be too extravagant, so I gave up on that idea.
Seeing his embarrassed expression, Ye Wengui asked, "What's wrong? Want to get your brother some better stuff?"
Shen Yanming wasn't interested, but he couldn't say it outright. He could only nod awkwardly with a smile: "Yeah! There aren't any quotas!"
Ye Wengui admired their brotherhood, so he offered, "What's the big deal? Just take mine!"
But he regretted it as soon as he said it.
What if, just what if, in the future, when she finds a wife or something, she might cause trouble for her?
But the words had already been spoken, so all they could do was hope that Shen Yanming would have some sense and not take advantage of them!
Shen Yanming originally wanted to take it directly from his spatial storage. Wouldn't it be better to do business without any investment? Why put it out in the open and invite envy and jealousy?
But Captain Ye has already said it. If he doesn't offer something in return, wouldn't that be disrespectful?
Won't he feel that I look down on him, and then try to trip me up next time I come?
After hesitating for a while, Shen Yanming finally made up his mind to change!
He thought to himself, "Since we have food at home anyway, I might as well contribute to the guard team."
It's tough on Captain Ye; look at his ever-changing expression, it's hard to tell if he's being genuine or not.
Shen Yanming tentatively asked, "Then, how about we get some meat instead?"
Ye Wengui frowned, his face showing heartache.
Shen Yanming quickly changed the subject: "The meat won't keep well in this heat, how about we get some sugar instead?"
The refrigerator issue wasn't considered at all.
Ye Wengui's complexion had improved considerably, but his lips were still tightly pursed.
Shen Yanming thought to himself, "Well, this guy simply doesn't want to change it for himself!"
So he said, "Forget it, we still have sugar at home, and we only eat it a few times a year. How about Captain Ye tells me what the guard team has in abundance, so I can pick something to exchange."
Ye Wengui was very satisfied with his sensibility.
With a quick glance, he said, "There's a lot of paper, tons! The quota for guards has increased recently. If you want some, I'll give you half of mine."
Shen Yanming asked in confusion, "What kind of paper?"
"Toilet paper. Made from virgin pulp, unbleached. And it's really tough."
They're all made from wheat straw, and the warehouse is almost overflowing with them.
"Alright then, how many packs would you like?" Shen Yanming said after thinking for a moment.
Upon hearing this, Ye Wengui immediately beamed with joy and walked into the hall with his arm around Shen Yanming's shoulder.
He thought to himself, "Wow, another success! This is a risk-free business; I'm making money for the guard team."
Shen Yanming had no idea what he was thinking; he was simply stunned by his sudden enthusiasm.
They were all still in a daze after arriving in the hall.
It wasn't until five, six, seven, or eight rolls of brownish-yellow toilet paper appeared in front of him that Shen Yanming realized what was happening.
Is this because the paper production cost is too low, and they're trying to rip off this big customer?
However, he didn't mind, since he had the space as a backup, so he just considered it as contributing food to the guard team.
However, we must not give people the impression that "he has food to eat and is waiting to be slaughtered!"
So he frowned, pursed his lips, and looked at Ye Wengui without saying a word.
Only after making the person uneasy did he nod and ask, "How much grain do you need?"
Ye Wengui was panting heavily, and said somewhat guiltily, "It's okay, don't be afraid, I'll give you a discount!"
So, with a complicated expression, Old Shen went home with a pile of toilet paper and a bunch of special grade powder. I wonder if his wife will be overjoyed to see the fruits of her labor!
It was my own stupidity to actually believe Ye Wengui's good intentions. I didn't want to be a lamb, but I ended up feeling like one.
This exorbitant meal made even someone with a spatial ability like him tremble with fear.
It hurts! I want to cry! That's too cruel!
A whole bag of flour is gone!
Now everyone will know about Shen Yanming's reputation for being a spendthrift!
well!
Shen Yanming tried his best to keep a straight face, even though he was unhappy. He couldn't afford to ruin his public image!
After getting in the car, I checked it and confirmed that there were no in-car cameras.
Then, they drove to a corner where no one was paying attention and secretly released a bag of red dates, two pounds of brown sugar, plus dried mushrooms, dried meat, dried longan, and some black fungus.
It's just that Chen Shunwei came at the wrong time; otherwise, I could have given him some walnuts, chestnuts, yams, and beans.
It's too early now, there's nothing there yet.
I don't want to think about these things anymore. I need to go home; my wife must be getting impatient.
Shen Yanming parked the van at the bottom of the building and called Chen Shunwei downstairs with a phone call.
"These, these, and these, are the things I replaced for you at the guard station. Take them back and repair them." Shen Yanming said, pulling the things he had stuffed under the seat out of his spatial storage.
Then, pointing to the sacks of flour, he said, "I'll leave you two sacks as payment for helping us manage the fields."
Chen Shunwei hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, I didn't do anything, one bag is enough!"
Shen Yanming was stunned. Was this a half-hearted refusal?
Little did he know, Chen Shunwei had come to understand his temperament.
If you know it's impossible to completely eliminate it, then just cut it in half.
I did a rough calculation and figured that the wheat ears my daughter and wife had picked could be ground into about this much flour.
It's easy to imagine how wasteful this person is.
