Tang Baozhu's family had quite a lot of points, but there were others with even more points, so it wasn't just his family that bought the second-generation winter coat.
It wouldn't stand out so much when you're among others.
The staff member who helped Lin Shengtian redeem the winter clothes clearly came from the military. Although they were a little surprised to see so many points on the card, they still meticulously took all the winter clothes that Lin Shengtian needed.
This kind of winter clothing is so durable that it's not easy to tear even with a dagger. You only need one to change into.
The family of eight each bought two sets, spending a total of 3.2 million points. It seems like a lot, but Lin Shengtian felt it was worth it.
If it's truly an extremely cold climate, having this kind of cold-weather clothing can at least save their lives. Compared to a human life, this cold-weather clothing worth 200,000 points is quite worthwhile.
Lin Shengtian glanced at the points on his card. Although there weren't many left, he figured there wasn't anything else he needed to buy at home, so it was fine if he ran out of points.
Moreover, they sell those ripe vegetables every month, and can sell animals again every two or three months, so earning points is already quite impressive.
However, none of the refined grains were exchanged. After all, eating more refined grains is good for one's health, not to mention that the children will need to eat more refined grains when they grow up so that they can grow stronger.
They kept some of the sweet potatoes and potatoes, made some sweet potato flour or potato flour for themselves, keeping about 10,000 jin of each, and exchanged the rest.
Although some families had larger boats and grew more crops than Tang Baozhu, Tang Baozhu still managed to register her name on one of them.
After all, their family is very proactive; every month, as soon as the vegetables are ripe, they hand them in without hesitation.
As Lin Shengtian was leaving, he was suddenly stopped by the soldier who was there to greet him. "There are some weapons available for exchange inside. Would you like to take another look? We've already received a notice that in less than two months, all the ships will be heading out to sea. We're worried about encountering ships from other countries, so we're having everyone exchange for some weapons as a safety measure."
Upon hearing this, Lin Shengtian's heart skipped a beat. If they encountered foreign ships, people like those bandits could easily cause trouble.
If a country's ships don't venture into the deep ocean, they can easily get frozen and become immobile, leaving the country vulnerable to attack.
Thinking of the elderly and young children in her family, she knew she couldn't do without weapons, so she agreed and followed the soldier into the ship's cabin.
Lin Shengtian was unaware of how formidable his wife was; if he had known, he wouldn't have been afraid.
Not to mention the many robot puppets at home, each one capable of taking on a hundred opponents. He just didn't know that at the moment, so he decided to see if he could exchange them for guns, ammunition, or something similar.
After Lin Shengtian entered the shipyard, he noticed that the people who had just bought winter clothes were coming in one by one. It seemed that these people must own large ships and frequently trade with the government.
The government certainly didn't want anything to happen to these people, so they let them in to choose weapons.
Although Lin Shengtian had never served in the military, he worked in a government department and had some knowledge of firearms.
The only thing they can exchange for now is items discarded by the military, which is already quite good for them.
Lin Shengtian checked the points on his card and redeemed a total of three guns, with 100 bullets for each gun, which was enough for now.
Even if he didn't have enough, he didn't have any more points to redeem them because they were too expensive. He planned to exchange for more points to buy more bullets, guns, and the like to stock up later.
Finally, Lin Shengtian returned to his ship with the Hanfu and guns he had redeemed, along with his empty points card.
Tang Baozhu didn't say anything when she saw what Lin Shengtian brought back, but she quickly figured out what these things were for.
Although she doesn't really need them, having these things does give her a great sense of security.
"Brother Shengtian, put these things away properly. The kids at home are quite mischievous, and it wouldn't be good if they saw them."
"Don't worry, honey. We'll keep these things in our room. As for the winter clothes, we'll distribute them to everyone. By the way, we're running out of points on the card. Some of the hired workers don't even have a winter coat. I'm worried they won't be able to stand the cold weather."
We've lived together for eight years, and although they're all quite introverted and won't talk to me unless I do, I can't just let them freeze to death.
Tang Baozhu didn't know how to explain it, because neither puppets nor robots cared about the cold.
But if they don't wear winter clothes, they'll be too conspicuous. In any case, we should exchange them for a set.
"Next time you run into Company Commander Li, talk to him and see if you can get the winter clothes back in advance. Then you can use the vegetables, chickens and rabbits at home to pay off the debt. If possible, prepare one set for each of them first."
Lin Shengtian nodded, thinking that this method was quite good. He had traded with them so many times over the years that they had developed a certain level of trust in each other.
It shouldn't be too difficult.
"Don't worry, I'll ask around in the next couple of days. I just heard the soldier who was exchanging the items say that in another month or two, all the ships will be heading into the deep ocean, whether they're from our area or other places, they'll all set off together."
"If you're really leaving in a month or two, you should hurry up and ask now. If everyone knows about this, there will definitely be a lot of people exchanging for winter clothes. Try to go as early as possible, so that there won't be any left if you go too late."
Although Tang Baozhu felt that this possibility was relatively small, after all, the country had spent eight years researching it, so even if there were fewer second-generation ones, there must have been many first-generation ones.
But it's better to be safe than sorry.
Lin Shengtian didn't refuse, and besides, it was just one more trip, not tiring at all, so he agreed.
After storing all the winter clothing, guns, and ammunition, they boarded a small yacht and left the large ship.
