However, arguing was out of the question. After saying hello, Lu Yuan walked over.
Anna nodded slightly, feeling a little embarrassed, and went back to her room. She didn't intend to chat with these people.
Lu Yuan took out cigarettes and distributed them to the group. Everyone looked on with curiosity when they saw the cigarettes.
"Brother Lin, what's your identity, with all those cigarettes you smoke every day?"
Lu Yuan just chuckled: "Oh, I used to have a lot of tobacco stored up, which I rolled myself."
"Oh, if only we could grow tobacco too. It's a pity that the higher-ups said we're not allowed to grow other crops until the grain standards are met. Actually, we'd like to grow some melons, fruits, peaches, and vegetables like other war zones do. Growing rice and paddy rice all day long is just not a way to survive."
The others nodded in agreement.
They have an urgent need for supplies other than food, but these are things they cannot grow until they meet their food production targets.
They have to meet their mission targets, otherwise the troops at the front will go hungry.
As everyone was smoking and chatting, an idea suddenly popped into Lu Yuan's mind.
So, pretending to be nonchalant, she asked softly, "By the way, I see rows of small houses over there. Who lives in those small houses?"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, the people around him all looked towards the house, and some of them began to explain.
"Oh, the people who live in those houses are all wealthy families. They have the ability and resources to live in those houses. People like us who have neither the ability nor the resources can't live there at all. Don't even think about it."
"It's so much more comfortable living in this tenement building! At night, I can even hear the sounds of other people chatting intimately! After finishing the work in the fields and then the chores at home, I can just go to sleep without having to think about anything!"
Everyone burst into laughter and nodded in agreement.
It seems they have gotten used to this kind of life.
However, Lu Yuan really didn't intend to accept this kind of life. What's the difference between this and being a stud?
"How can I move into this house?"
After hearing Lu Yuan's words, the people next to him were stunned.
They all turned to look at Lu Yuan: "What, brother? You want to live in that kind of house? Oh, don't even think about it. That kind of house isn't for people like us!"
"Yes, you can't even dream of living in this kind of house without a research report or some other huge contribution. These houses are all allocated, and there are only twenty or thirty households in a war zone at most. Only the area leader can live in such a place!"
After listening, Lu Yuan had a general idea in his mind.
After chatting casually with everyone for a few more minutes, he returned to the house.
Anna was sitting in the corner, flipping through a book that Lu Yuan had sent from the dimensional space.
This book is actually a post-apocalyptic novel.
Lu Yuan and Xiao Shan used to enjoy reading these kinds of novels, but due to time constraints, they basically just left these books on the bookshelf at home untouched.
Later, the dimensional space underwent tremendous changes, and most of the random things were sent out. However, in order to have more leisure time, Lu Yuan still put a few good books in there.
It would be nice to take it out and flip through it when I have time, but it seems like I don't have the time right now. It's just that Anna sometimes feels a bit awkward when she's alone at home with nothing to do, so she picks up a book and flips through a few pages.
Seeing Lu Yuan approach, Anna closed the book in her hand and glanced at it again: "Hmm, I just heard you were talking about those houses outside!"
Lu Yuan happened to be thinking of bringing this up as well. Hearing Anna ask this question, it seemed that she also wanted to stay there, so he nodded slightly and said...
"Yes, they said there are requirements to live in those houses. You either have to become yourself, become the person in charge of this area, make a significant contribution, or produce some experimental results. I think we should move to another place. I don't think this place is quite suitable for us!"
Anna nodded slightly. She had completely given up the urge to have a relationship with Lu Yuan. In just a few days, she had exhausted all her energy.
She was a woman with physical needs, not an ignorant young girl. In this place full of temptations, she felt she couldn't hold back any longer and had to find a different place to change her environment, otherwise she would go crazy sooner or later.
Lu Yuan also felt somewhat guilty, after all, Anna was just a substitute for Xiao Shan in his heart. He felt that this was too cruel to Anna, but he had no choice, he really couldn't bring himself to do it.
After a quick search, Lu Yuan decided to focus on the research aspect first and see if he could submit a research report directly, since it was practically unrealistic to expect to live in those houses through the other two phases.
First of all, if you want to make a significant contribution, you have to consider how your superiors evaluate you. But right now, they're stuck in their own little world, so where would they find the opportunity to make a significant contribution, unless they go to the front lines?
The second point is becoming the person in charge of the area, which is even more out of the question.
There are countless people who want to become the area manager. This area has more than 10,000 people and more than 10,000 acres of land. Such a large area has only one person in charge of overall planning and coordination.
He lived the most comfortable life, and everyone envied him. Although these people also needed to farm, their status and position set them apart from ordinary people.
Becoming the head of a region is more difficult, so for Lu Yuan, producing a new research report seems to be faster and more likely to succeed.
However, Lu Yuan was somewhat troubled about what kind of report to produce, because the research directions they needed were quite different.
Lu Yuan needed to find a very good research topic and then hand it over to Qiao Ya in the space to see if he could get some good research reports and experimental results.
As the days went by, Lu Yuan still hadn't found anything.
He felt that he and Anna had almost gone too far several times, almost taking things to the next level.
However, reason ultimately prevailed over desire, and Lu Yuan promptly put away his gun and stopped his impulse.
However, Anna was indeed so angry that she would secretly hide under the covers and cry every time. Lu Yuan could also feel the grievance in her heart, and could only silently apologize in his heart.
