Four or five hundred soldiers gathered in the square in front of the military-controlled granary in the mountainous area on the eastern outskirts of Beijing. They ignored Brigade Commander Lei's exclamation of the miracle that the granary was full of grain.
Not a single one of the hundreds of people present believed Commander Lei's words.
Battalion Commander Song directly rebuked Zheng Ya and her son: "Do you still have the nerve to stand here and watch our old brigade commander cover for you?"
"That's right. The old brigade commander is a good man, but he can't be used as a shield by you. Have some shame and leave!" The soldiers urged him to leave.
Many soldiers mistakenly thought that the old brigade commander was so anxious that he had blinded himself and mistook the empty granary for a warehouse full of grain. This was unacceptable!
The grain in the granary was all taken away last night.
The entire warehouse complex consists of eighteen warehouses of varying sizes, with a total grain storage of up to 300 million tons.
However, due to continuous disasters across the country in recent years, resulting in crop failures, the warehouses that originally had one-third of their stockpiles, equivalent to more than 100 million tons of grain, were successively sent out to provide relief to impoverished towns and villages, and are now empty.
This situation already made the soldiers stationed at the granary extremely anxious.
The incident occurred when Sun Quansheng led a team to pick up grain last night, which caused an unpleasant situation.
Other caravans came here and took away the corresponding supplies, but Sun Quansheng's caravan came away empty-handed and had to wait for most of the night. Isn't this bullying?
And so, the two sides clashed.
Although they were both soldiers, they did not physically fight or cause trouble, but their verbal argument lasted for most of the night, and both of them were furious with each other.
As soon as Zheng Ya and her son arrived, they were treated as scapegoats.
Sun Quansheng said angrily, "Haha, what's going on with these swindlers infiltrating the army to scam people?"
Your independent battalion stationed at the granary has really gone too far. You're just bringing shame to us soldiers, even taking in swindlers as an eyesore.
"Could it be that all the grain in the granary was sold to swindlers by your battalion? Who are you trying to fool with this charade?"
"Battalion Commander Sun, you need to provide evidence for your statements. Who the hell sold grain to a swindler?" Battalion Commander Song argued with him angrily.
In fact, the two had been hurling insults at each other for most of the night without using any vulgar language, and now they were directly making fun of Zheng Ya and her son, calling them liars at every turn.
Insults in a roundabout way.
Fu Qingyao couldn't stand it anymore, so she ran to the granary and was stunned: "Commander Lei, are you ecstatic?"
He was grinning foolishly, clutching his grain in the granary, while a murder was about to break out outside!
"What? I... I deserve to die!" Commander Lei snapped back to his senses, slapped himself, and turned to run away.
He was so overjoyed to see the full granary that he ran inside to get up close and personal with the grain, forgetting all about the standoff outside.
The hundreds of people outside nearly verbally abused Zheng Ya and her son to death.
Although they are all soldiers, they don't use vulgar language when they curse, but they keep calling people liars and charlatans. Who can stand that?
As soon as Brigade Commander Lei ran out of the granary, he roared, "You bastards, what are you all doing out there?"
Everyone in the group had some; they ran into the granary to see for themselves!
"Yes, everyone, run!" When Battalion Commander Song heard that the old brigade commander was really angry, he led his team into the granary with a pounding heart, and everyone was dumbfounded.
The soldier in charge couldn't move when he saw the granary full of grain.
The soldiers behind them were pushing and shoving, forgetting to shout, and were stunned by the full granary of grain.
Battalion Commander Song jogged through the middle of the column, and as soon as he squeezed through the door and saw the grain, he exclaimed in surprise: "No, impossible, where did so much grain come from?"
"My God, how could the warehouse be filled with grain?" the soldiers exclaimed in surprise, creating a commotion.
In an instant, everyone was shocked to the core by the grain in front of them, and they discussed where the grain came from.
These days, people don't believe in superstitions.
To prevent the soldiers from making wild guesses and spreading rumors, Brigade Commander Lei said through a megaphone, "Quiet down, everyone shut your mouths, and remember one rule: keep it a secret."
Of course, to put everyone's minds at ease, we would like to invite Comrade Zheng Ya to explain the source of the full granary.
"Comrade Zheng Ya, please!"
Zheng Ya then stepped forward, waved his hand and refused the megaphone offered by Brigade Commander Lei, and said to the soldiers: "I am Zheng Ya, a martial arts master. The fact that hundreds of people can hear me just by speaking in such an approachable tone proves my strength as a martial arts master."
My master had already cultivated to a transcendent level, possessing the ability to retrieve objects and deliver supplies remotely.
This full granary is the first batch of grain sent to me from afar by my master.
I can't demonstrate this for you, so please understand.
"Clap clap clap!" The soldiers stood in solemn respect, applauding in celebration and gratitude.
At this moment, all the soldiers were filled with excitement and felt guilty towards Zheng Ya and her son, and could only repay them with enthusiastic applause.
Sun Quansheng apologized in public: "Comrade Zheng Ya, I apologize for my offense just now. I'm sorry."
"Attention, everyone! Salute the hero!" Brigade Commander Lei took the initiative to pick up the microphone and give the order, breaking the awkward silence between them.
Soldiers should apologize in a military manner!
All six hundred-plus people raised their hands in salute, which Fu Qingyao accepted with a smile. Her initial annoyance vanished, replaced by a sense of pride and satisfaction.
This is the epitome of a mother gaining status through her son!
Zheng Ya smiled and raised her hand to say, "Alright, I appreciate everyone's kindness. On behalf of my master, I thank you all!"
"Haha, that's good. Let's talk over there. We'll leave the granary for the soldiers to load onto the trucks. This way, shall we go?" Commander Lei excitedly led Zheng Ya and her son to the granary's reception room and served them tea.
Battalion Commander Song was too embarrassed to entertain the guests.
Brigade Commander Lei has taken the initiative.
Fu Qingyao didn't seem to mind: "Commander Lei, do you have something to discuss?"
"Ahem, Comrade Fu Qingyao, on behalf of my soldiers, I apologize to you and your son. Please take good care of us." Brigade Commander Lei first drank tea instead of wine as a sign of respect.
Fu Qingyao laughed in exasperation: "You must have misspoken, right?"
After saying all that, is it really just those two words: "Take care"? Is that what you wanted to say to my son and me?
"Yes, yes, I admit it. I request that you provide more food!" Commander Lei no longer concealed the truth.
Such a glorious task is our duty, and we should not shirk our responsibility!
Letting Zheng Ya and her son go is a good thing that should go to someone else; it's no longer a matter for Commander Lei.
The granaries in the capital alone are not limited to the granaries in the eastern suburbs.
Fu Qingyao shook her head and refused: "Brigade Commander Lei, this is not a decision I can make. I'll borrow your phone for a moment, but let's ask our superiors for instructions."
“Yes, the phone is here. I’ll go with you.” Commander Lei wouldn’t let such a mission pass him by, and quickly got up to lead the way for her.
Zheng Ya sat quietly drinking tea, happily checking his supernatural ability space, where his Zhengde value was soaring!
In just five minutes, Zhengde's value surged by more than one million.
However, Zheng Ya's efforts to produce 300 million tons of grain only cost Zheng De 600,000 units, resulting in a net profit of half of that.
We should do more good deeds like this!
If I do this a few more times, my superpower will level up again.
Zheng Ya was overjoyed. After finishing his call with Fu Qingyao, Commander Lei returned to the living room and asked, "You brat, how much more grain can your master send us?"
"Well, that depends on how much grain you want." Zheng Ya was delighted; what he wanted had come to pass!
