Jiang Mengxue didn't stay long after getting the information she wanted. She also asked them to put the things they exchanged with her into the cave after moving them.
She returned to the guesthouse under the cover of night.
When I went back, I was holding two lunch boxes in my hands, and the faint aroma of food was wafting out.
The staff at the front desk swallowed their saliva, thinking that she had gone out to buy food.
Although we were out for a while, it was already dark, so it was naturally not easy to buy something to eat, and there was nothing wrong with that.
The lunch box did contain Jiang Mengxue's dinner for tonight. She took it out when she arrived at the door of the guesthouse, so it was not cold when she got to the room.
While I was sitting at the table eating, a figure suddenly appeared in the room.
Because the light in the room was dim, Jiang Mengxue couldn't see clearly what it was and was startled.
In an instant, he reached behind him and took out a machete from the space.
I originally wanted to get a shorter dagger, which would be easier to use.
But when I think about the fact that the clothes we wear nowadays are very thick, a dagger would probably just break the skin, so a machete would have greater lethality.
Jiang Mengxue slashed at the figure without hesitation, but the figure disappeared again.
He tried his best to calm his mind and adapt his vision to the dim conditions.
Jiang Mengxue was really scared, as if something supernatural had happened. How could she dare to sleep in this room tonight?
Just then Jiang Mengxue sensed something strange in the space warehouse. It was Gu Qingbei who entered the space.
Just then the figure suddenly appeared again.
But this time, before Jiang Mengxue could take action, the figure spoke first.
"My wife is me."
Jiang Mengxue was surprised. Was she dreaming?
How did Gu Qingbei appear in the guesthouse room? And how could he appear and disappear suddenly?
Now he can travel to other places freely without anyone accompanying him?
"Why are you here? You can do it without a medium..."
This was also the first time that Gu Qingbei tried this, and he only discovered this new skill when he entered the space today.
He had a feeling that this new skill would be very important to them.
Finally, the two sat at the dining table in the space and talked about recent events while eating.
“I only discovered I had this ability after entering the space in the past few days. It’s a kind of telepathy, I guess.
At first, just in case, I didn’t dare to go anywhere else rashly, but teleported to the mountain behind our house.
But doing this was really exhausting, and I felt better only after a night's rest that night.
Today I was just thinking about being able to transfer directly to your side, but I didn’t expect it to be possible.”
As for why he disappeared just after appearing? Of course, it was because he turned around and saw Jiang Mengxue slashing at him with a knife.
Things happened so fast that even if he reacted quickly he would still be injured, so he returned to the space in an instant.
This was just one matter, and Gu Qingbei asked about family matters again.
Jiang Mengxue told Gu Qingbei what she had just heard tonight, and his face became terribly gloomy.
He gritted his teeth and said, "You are so bold that you even dare to take over the food. Corruption is a serious crime. The value of it is enough to sentence you to death.
I just hope the food he embezzled can be recovered, otherwise we might be short of food here too."
In fact, Jiang Mengxue knew in her heart that it would be better if the food could be found, but even if it was found, the situation would not be much better.
"Tell me the truth, what's going on out there? I've been following the newspapers closely for the past year, but many things never make it into the papers. I guess you can only trust half of the information they say."
Although Gu Qingbei still goes on missions in the army, most of the time he leads troops in battle. They are close to the border, and although the situation is not very chaotic, it is not peaceful either. In addition, Gu Zhenhai is in a high position, so they know more.
"My former comrades are now on duty in the Ningxia border area, and they are running out of food.
Some time ago, he sent me a letter containing a large amount of food coupons, hoping that I could find a way to send some food to them.
After I returned, I reported to my superiors and provided them with a batch of food in the name of the army.
Food supply is insufficient in many places, and an adult can only buy half of the 30 kilograms of food a month if he can get a ticket.
Ying and his team of more than a dozen people were blocked in the mountains, along with the villagers inside. All the food found on the mountain was given to the villagers first. The dozen soldiers could only fill their stomachs with leaves. I don’t know how long they lasted in this situation?
Gu Qingbei's eyes turned red as he spoke.
As soldiers, they cannot even get enough food, let alone ordinary people.
So when I learned that someone actually dared to embezzle food.
If it was in front of Gu Qingbei, Jiang Mengxue had no doubt that he would shoot the man to death.
Reaching out and holding his hand, he comforted him, "Now that we know about this, we naturally cannot ignore it. The land in the space has been revitalized several times since the carnival year, and all the land has been converted to growing coarse grains. Judging from the food in our warehouse now, it is enough to feed everyone in the country for a few years.
But how can we do this to ensure that nothing goes wrong? And to what extent can you achieve this ability?"
Gu Qingbei obviously had an idea about this matter. He took out a map out of thin air. It was a relatively detailed map of China.
There were already several circles drawn on it with his red pen.
But unfortunately Jiang Mengxue didn't understand it at all. She couldn't tell east from west and east from west, and she could only recognize the front, back, left and back, or a big tree nearby. It was really difficult for her to look at the map.
Gu Qingbei didn't expect her to understand, so he just told her his plan.
"We can't take care of every place, so my plan is to go by province. These are the places I have initially decided on. They are hidden and safe enough, and large enough to accommodate the food we have prepared.
I'll have someone deliver a letter to the provincial leaders when the time comes. I also hope to get this done quickly, and I plan to secretly report this to the highest-ranking officials. Otherwise, if someone below becomes greedy or traitorous, all our efforts will be in vain."
I need to find some time to explore these places, and then I can start taking action after I am familiar with them.
Because of his previous experiences, Gu Qingbei now plans more when doing things.
What Jiang Mengxue needs to do next is to continue upgrading the space and distribute the food.
Although this matter was simple and only required a thought in the space, she solved it early, which saved Gu Qingbei from having to take time to take care of this matter.
