Sheng Kangning: "How many people are there in the vanguard team?"
"One hundred and sixty people!"
Sheng Kangning frowned slightly: "Under the current situation, can you spare some manpower to go out with me to collect herbs?"
"How many people do you need?" Chu Nanzhou asked.
Sheng Kangning silently calculated in his mind that if they were all gay men, fifteen people would be enough!
If it were these female educated youth, it would be hard to say.
Even if she was given thirty people, it might not be possible to collect all the herbs she needed. Moreover, it was raining so heavily now, and no one could predict what they would encounter when they went out to collect herbs.
Moreover, in Sheng Kangning's opinion, between making medicine bags and harvesting wheat, harvesting wheat is definitely more important.
Sheng Kangning expressed his thoughts.
After Chu Nanzhou pondered for a moment, he asked Sheng Kangning in detail about the approximate location of the medicinal herbs and the surrounding terrain.
"Kangning, have you ever thought that if you wear a medicine bag and don't have to worry about being bitten by mosquitoes, then the speed of harvesting wheat will be faster? Don't worry about the matter of transferring personnel. I can give you 20 people! They are all soldiers in the army! One is worth two! They will arrive at noon, but this rain..."
Chu Nanzhou looked up at the dark sky.
If the rain gets heavier, there may be certain variables and safety cannot be guaranteed.
This matter still needs to be discussed with Lao Zhou.
Chu Nanzhou raised his hand and pointed at the steamed bun in Sheng Kangning's hand, and said with a smile: "Let's eat first! I will make a decision after discussing this matter with Lao Zhou."
Sheng Kangning looked at the steamed bun in his hand and smiled: "Okay!"
The scene of the two sitting together fell into the eyes of Zhou Shen and Xu Hongmei.
I think these two people are really a perfect match!
Sheng Kangning discovered that the man next to him was very well-educated.
It also gives people an indescribable feeling. If I really have to use one word to describe it, it would be calm and dignified.
Even in such a rainy day.
The man was sitting on a ridge, his whole body covered in mud and water, but it was impossible to ignore his calm demeanor.
It gives people a very stable feeling.
In his previous life, Sheng Kangning had only seen this feeling in Director Zhou.
Sheng Kangning sat next to him. At first, he was a little worried when he thought about making medicine packs for 160 people so urgently. This worry was affected by the calmness of the man.
It seems that nothing is impossible.
Chu Nanzhou ate very politely but very quickly. When Sheng Kangning was halfway through his meal, he had already eaten several big steamed buns and had almost finished his porridge.
Afterwards, I used a lunch box to collect rain water, washed the lunch box, put it in a bag, and washed my hands in the rain water.
He then stood up, called Zhou Shen over, and gave him a few instructions.
Zhou Shen ran towards the vanguard team before he finished his meal.
Chu Nanzhou turned around and looked at Sheng Kangning and Xu Hongmei: "After dinner, we will work on this field. It will be easy for me to find you later. I'll go to the front to take a look."
It took Zhou Shen nearly an hour to go back and forth.
Sheng Kangning and Xu Hongmei were busy harvesting wheat.
I didn’t see Director Zhou coming over.
It was an hour and a half later that we received the notice to return.
The only female educated youth were Sheng Kangning and Xu Hongmei.
The team was led by Liu Jinjiang and Yang Hui, and the remaining eighteen people were soldiers who had just rushed over from the army to help harvest the wheat.
Before, it took Sheng Kangning and Xu Hongmei half an hour to get to the destination, but the rain was not heavy at that time and the road was not that muddy.
It's a little difficult to walk now.
It took them fifty minutes to reach the place where Sheng Kangning and Xu Hongmei had collected herbs.
On the way, Sheng Kangning discussed with Xu Hongmei. When they arrived at the place, Xu Hongmei took half of the people to pick mugwort directly, while Sheng Kangning took the remaining half to the bush forest they had seen before to look for Sophora flavescens.
The bush is on the other side of the river.
The person who went with Sheng Kangning was Yang Hui.
Sheng Kangning could understand why Director Zhou sent Liu Jinjiang and Yang Hui. They were from the youth protection team, and they were familiar with the area around the site.
It would be most appropriate to let them lead the team.
Sheng Kangning looked at the rising river water, wondering how to get across.
In the previous life, they came here mostly in autumn. The water level of the river was very shallow in autumn, so Sheng Kangning and the others didn't need to take a detour. There were several large rocks on the river, and they could just step on those rocks to get across.
It’s no longer possible now. The water level of the river has risen and no trace of the rocks can be seen.
Yang Hui looked at her: "Follow me!"
Led by Yang Hui, the group took a detour and saw a simple wooden bridge over the river.
Just two wooden boards.
Yang Hui explained that these two wooden boards were built when Hongyang Farm was first built.
It is also to facilitate entry into the bush.
Yang Hui said that in autumn, there will be a large group of chestnut trees behind the bushes, and we can come and pick chestnuts then!
Sheng Kangning was walking in front, with one foot already stepping on two wooden boards.
"Wait!" Yang Hui shouted.
"I'll go over first and pick you up over there!" Yang Hui said, then walked around Sheng Kangning and headed across the river.
Yang Hui walked very quickly, and in just a few breaths, he reached the other side.
Yang Hui stood at the other end and waved to Sheng Kangning: "Come over here, don't be afraid, I'll catch you!"
Sheng Kangning didn't look at Yang Hui. He paid attention to his steps and walked over steadily. Yang Hui reached out to take it, but Sheng Kangning waved his hand: "No need!"
Yang Hui raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I didn't expect you to be so brave at such a young age!"
