After they all came over to Ye Yunxi and Chen Zhe and stood in line, Chen Zhe checked and saw that everyone was there. He then spoke to them.
"I have something to tell you. Someone stole vegetables from our garden today, but I won't name names. What I want to tell you now is..."
Starting today, anyone who works diligently in our vegetable garden will receive more vegetables when it's payday, depending on how well they perform.
But if anyone tries to steal vegetables, they'd better think twice. Not only will they lose food and contribution points, but they'll also be sent to Captain Li for a good time. Understand?
A dozen or so people said in unison.
"I understand!"
Chen Zhe was very satisfied with their answer and told them to go harvest the vegetables.
Ye Yunxi and Chen Zhe also went to help. After a while, Zhou Yuan arrived with his men.
He saw Ye Yunxi and greeted her.
"Yunxi, it's been a long time."
Hearing the voice, Ye Yunxi looked up and saw that it was Zhou Yuan. She stood up and said with a smile.
"Uncle Zhou, it's been a long time. How have you been these days?"
Zhou Yuan smiled and said, "Hi, same as always. How about you and Fu Heng?"
"We're the same; apart from commuting to and from get off work every day, everything else is the same."
"That's good. Commander Wu keeps talking about you, saying you haven't visited him or chatted with him in a long time. Chen Zhe is now helping you deliver the grain you've grown."
Zhou Yuan told her about Commander Wu's longing for Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng.
Ye Yunxi thought of Base Chief Wu's appearance and how much he cared for the base. For the past two years, Base Chief Wu had trusted everything they said and hadn't considered any wrongdoing.
They're going on a long trip in a few days, so they'll let Commander Wu know before they leave.
"We've been busy lately, but we'll go visit Commander Wu in a couple of days."
"Okay, I'll pass on the message to Commander Wu when I get back. He'll be very happy to hear it."
Then Zhou Yuan had someone help Ye Yunxi and the others harvest the vegetables. After they were all harvested, he said goodbye to Ye Yunxi and Chen Zhe and drove towards the base building.
Seeing that everything was alright, Ye Yunxi chatted with Chen Zhe for a bit and then went home.
Fu Heng and Xuan Yu returned in the evening, and Ye Yunxi took out food from her spatial storage and ate with them.
“Aheng, I asked Zhe today, and he wants to go, but he also wants to ask Jing what she thinks.”
Fu Heng said as he ate, "It's alright, it's just one more person."
Ye Yunxi was a little embarrassed. "It's not just one more person. Today when we went to Grandpa Lu's house, he entrusted Lu Hengyi to us, saying that if we were to go out of the base for a mission, we should take him with us so that he could get more experience and learn more."
Fu Heng put down his chopsticks and looked at Ye Yunxi.
"Since it was Grandpa Lu who asked us to take him along, then we will."
"Hmm. This is what I'm thinking. Since we're leaving the base, we won't be able to sleep at night if we're driving a small car, and it's not realistic to take out a motorhome from our space."
Grandpa Lu has some in his warehouse, and I'm thinking of buying two RVs from him. What do you think?
Fu Heng thought for a moment and then said.
"Actually, we could buy a car, a small one. For accommodation, we could bring a tent and camp outside overnight. What do you think?"
Xuan Yu, who had been engrossed in his meal, suddenly looked up and said something.
“I think Heng-ge makes a good point. Buying two RVs would attract too much attention. Or we could just not buy RVs and drive a car instead. In the end, we'll be setting up tents outside anyway.”
If we're going to be traveling with them a lot in the future, we'll buy one, and then we can take the RV out of the storage space when we have the chance.
Ye Yunxi thought about it and realized that what Xuan Yu said made sense.
"Alright, that's the only way then. Let's buy one first. We can take out the RV from the storage space when we have the chance."
Xuan Yu and Fu Heng nodded in agreement.
They continued eating, and after finishing, Ye Yunxi washed up while Fu Heng and Xuan Yu cleared the table and dishes.
After Fu Heng went upstairs to wash up, he went to bed and watched TV with Ye Yunxi in his arms. When it was almost time, he put down the tablet and went to sleep.
Two weeks later, Minyu still hadn't called via video, so Fu Heng contacted her. She said they hadn't found out yet, and Yanluo's hiding place was very difficult to locate.
Ye Yunxi's senior brother was found to be still alive; he hadn't died. The most they could find was that he was in a place that looked like a cave, but wasn't really a cave. They couldn't find any other specifics.
Ye Yunxi was happy to learn that her senior brother was still alive. At least he was still alive, and one day she would find him and bring him back to the First Base to see her master.
Fu Heng and Ye Yunxi were getting impatient, especially since they were just waiting around at the base. They figured they might as well set off early and go out to look for it.
Ye Yunxi plans to hand over the management of the vegetable garden to Dr. Hu. After all, most of the vegetables will go to the base. They've left this time, and it's uncertain when they'll return.
She intended to give it to Dr. Hu, but he refused, saying that the vegetable garden would still be hers whenever she returned, and he would only help Ye Yunxi take care of it.
He also agreed to her request to distribute contribution points and food to the workers.
That day, Ye Yunxi, Fu Heng, and Xuan Yu went to the Lu family to buy a motorhome.
They prepared plenty of vegetables and grains, as well as tea, cured meat, sausages, and so on. Ye Yunxi also secretly placed a few boxes of medicine and spiritual spring water inside.
Ready, they drove to the Lu family's house. A few minutes later, they arrived at the Lu family's gate. Fu Heng parked the car, and the three of them got out together.
After shouting a few times at the door and waiting for two or three minutes, the Lu family's butler arrived, smiling as he greeted Ye Yunxi and the others.
"Miss Ye, Mr. Ye, Mr. Fu, please come in. The old master is in the study. Please follow me."
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng nodded and followed the Lu family's butler inside.
The butler led them to the door of Old Master Lu's study, which was open.
Butler Lu said, "Miss Ye, I'll take you this far. You can go in on your own."
Ye Yunxi thanked the housekeeper. "Thank you! Thank you for your trouble."
Butler Lu smiled and took his leave from Ye Yunxi and the others.
Ye Yunxi gently knocked on the door and called out, "Grandpa Lu."
Grandpa Lu looked up at them, smiled, and called for them to come in quickly.
"Yunxi, what brings you here?"
Ye Yunxi didn't beat around the bush and spoke directly to Grandpa Lu.
"Grandpa Lu, I won't beat around the bush. We've come here today to buy a motorhome from you. We're going on a long trip in a couple of days, and having a motorhome will make the journey much easier."
When Grandpa Lu heard that they had come to buy a motorhome, he said...
"I thought it was something serious. This is simple; the butler will take you to pick up the car later. But you need to tell Grandpa Lu if you're going on a long trip for some reason."
Ye Yunxi turned to look at Fu Heng, and seeing him nod, she looked at Old Master Lu again.
He told Grandpa Lu about finding his senior brother Shen Nuoyang and bringing him back to the base. He didn't mention finding Yan Luo, nor was there any need to.
