What followed was a long wait. Every day, Lu Yuan spent his time in the machine room learning machine repair knowledge from Liu Cheng. He had never been exposed to this before. Apart from learning some car repair skills from Chen Ke, he knew nothing about other machines. However, Lu Yuan made great progress during this period.
That day, Lu Yuan was busy disassembling a cardiopulmonary resuscitation machine that he had just obtained from an outside hospital, while Liu Cheng rushed in, his eyes darting around. He closed the door, looked outside for a while, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, Lu Yuan, stop fussing. Everything's ready for you. Come with me tonight, I'll take you to meet someone!"
"Brother Liu, is the document issue sorted out?"
The other person nodded: "Yes, the documents have been taken care of. It took a lot of effort, but it didn't cost much!"
Upon hearing that he had spent money, Lu Yuan immediately felt a little guilty, so he asked in a low voice, "Well, I don't have much here. How about this, I have some dried meat and cotton clothes on hand. I can bring them to you another day when I go out. I don't need them anyway!"
When Liu Cheng heard Lu Yuan mention that he still had dried meat, his face lit up with interest. He quickly asked, "You still have dried meat? Really? You even have this kind of hard currency? How much do you have?"
Lu Yuan hadn't expected such a strong reaction, so he thought for a moment, then held up two fingers and said, "There are probably still over two hundred pounds left! As for cotton-padded coats, there are more than ten in total. I can't carry that many by myself, so I might have to go out with Brother Qing!"
A look of surprise immediately appeared on Liu Cheng's face. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Lu Yuan's arm, saying, "Why didn't you tell me about such a good thing sooner? Otherwise, I could have gotten this certificate for you a long time ago. Oh, you really are..."
Lu Yuan was also a little annoyed. If the other party had said earlier that they would exchange it for something, he wouldn't have kept it a secret for so long. After all, dried meat is a huge temptation for people nowadays. Lu Yuan was worried that revealing it too early would make things difficult for him when he was trying to get the plane.
Liu Cheng didn't say much, then told Lu Yuan to wait where he was, and then ran out excitedly. After that, he was seen pulling Qing Ge into the machine repair room.
"Lu Yuan, I heard from Brother Liu that you have some dried meat, is that true? I didn't see you bring anything when you came here!"
Lu Yuan nodded and said, "I was worried that my things would be stolen, so I found a place to hide them. After all, I was planning to take them out after I got out of the city. Now that Brother Liu has taken care of my documents, I plan to give these things to you as a way of thanking you!"
A smile finally appeared on Liu Cheng's perpetually icy face. He stepped forward and gently patted Lu Yuan's shoulder, saying, "It's alright. As long as you have these jerky, I guarantee I can get you aviation fuel if you need it. Leave it to me. Come to me if you have any problems in the future!"
Seeing the two of them so undisguised, Lu Yuan was speechless. He hadn't expected that these things would be so tempting to them. Although the food in the camp wasn't particularly delicious and even had a strange taste, it was still edible. At least it wasn't something like dead rats or human flesh; it was just some spoiled rice.
However, seeing the two of them like this, Lu Yuan knew that these were truly genuine people, unlike some hypocritical people who put on airs and said insincere things. This put Lu Yuan somewhat at ease.
With about the entire afternoon left, Liu Cheng used his connections to get Lu Yuan to go out of the camp with Brother Qing to retrieve some items.
Lu Yuan had never seen Qing Ge drive so wildly before. What was originally a journey of about an hour was shortened to half an hour by the other party's reckless speed.
Following Lu Yuan's directions, Brother Qing patted Lu Yuan on the shoulder with an expectant look and said, "Alright, you can go down by yourself. I won't share these little secrets with you!"
Lu Yuan nodded and got out of the car. He had been planning how to get the other person to stay in the car so he could get it himself, but the other person had already said those words, which made Lu Yuan feel a little more at ease.
After getting out of the car, Lu Yuan quickly found an open space, entered his dimensional space, and took out two pork slabs. These slabs had been dried and smoked for a long time, and were now as hard as iron plates.
Lu Yuan felt the load on his back was a bit heavy, then took out a large pile of clothes and walked over. When he saw Lu Yuan emerge from behind the boulder, Qing Ge immediately jumped out of the car and jogged after Lu Yuan.
Taking the pork from Lu Yuan's shoulder, Qing Ge's face showed a hint of joy. He kept sniffing the aroma of the meat, his mouth watering.
"If I'm not mistaken, this meat must have been marinated already. It smells so good! It's been so long since I've had any meat!"
After saying that, Brother Qing couldn't help but swallow hard.
Like treasures, they placed the two pork slabs in the trunk, placed some mats on them, and then carried some tools on top to prevent others from discovering them.
The car swayed and bumped its way back to the base. The guards at the gate saw the happy look on Qing's face and, somewhat suspiciously, went up to him and jokingly said, "Qing, you look so happy, did you get married?"
