Chapter 583: Perfect Preparation
"It smells so good. I can't remember how long it has been since I smelled something so good."
When the soldiers who had just entered to fix the torches passed by, they were already drooling at the aroma from the pot, and now they were holding the bowl with a look of anticipation.
The noodles in the pot were already boiling. Ran Qingxuan said directly, "The noodles are already cooked. Ten people share one pot. You have to finish them all."
Dozens of people were visibly excited, but they still looked at Zhao Zihui who was also swallowing his saliva.
"Madam has worked hard to cook this, so eat quickly so you can get back to work."
At first, the soldiers were a little reserved. Ran Qingxuan said loudly, "Everyone, eat as much as you want. If there is not enough, you can eat as much as you want after the food is moved back!"
When they heard that they could eat as much as they wanted, the soldiers holding their bowls immediately started to eat voraciously.
In just a few minutes, the five pots of instant noodles were eaten up, and there was not even a drop of soup left in the pots...
Ran Qingxuan only felt that he had not prepared enough, but the soldiers felt that they had eaten several times more today than in the past, and they all held their stomachs and burped.
"Okay, let's start moving after we're full. The brothers in the camp also need to have a full meal!"
Seeing that they were all wearing only clothes and shoes, Ran Qingxuan felt a little sorry for them and immediately signaled Zhao Zihui to let them wait.
"You just had a meal, so take a rest first, otherwise your stomach will feel uncomfortable."
These people couldn't remember how long it had been since they had a full meal. After Ran Qingxuan said this, they all smiled embarrassedly.
"Madam is right. Let's take a rest here for a cup of tea to give you time to digest the food..."
Gu Yanchen didn't know what she was going to do, but he still helped her cover.
While learning about the war in Beiguan with Zhao Zihui, Ran Qingxuan went into the second cave where food was stored. After his consciousness entered the space, he opened the mall and searched for men's thermal underwear and military coats.
Originally, she was thinking of buying a warmer down jacket or a set of cotton clothes, but after thinking about it, she decided that the military coat certified by the older generation was the best.
Although this thing may not look good, it is extremely warm and practical to wear.
Moreover, a military coat is a long piece, covering from the neck to the legs. As long as you buy boots that are long enough and warm enough, you can save a lot of money.
There are hundreds of stores selling military coats in the mall. A few thousand coats for each store would be enough for 50,000 military coats.
It was just that military boots were hard to buy. Ran Qingxuan was afraid that Zhao Zihui and the group of soldiers would become suspicious, so he had to ask the shop selling military coats if they had winter work boots.
Ran Qingxuan bought almost all of them, and barely managed to collect nearly 50,000 pairs. In the end, there were none left, so Ran Qingxuan had to buy cotton shoes of a slightly lower grade.
I thought that the soldiers going into battle could wear sturdier and more durable work shoes, and some logistics soldiers staying in the barracks could wear cotton shoes. Anyway, the warmth-keeping effect is the same.
Since she wanted a lot, the total cost of shoes and clothes was almost gone after spending five million.
After thinking about it, he realized that the most needed things on the battlefield besides food and medicine. Now that his family's assets had been emptied, Ran Qingxuan had no choice but to send a message to the [Treasure Hunter].
The message was replied to instantly, and with the purchasing power of the [Treasure Hunter], her medicine bag was filled up again.
We bought several hundred boxes of various medicines, most of which were anti-inflammatory and disinfectant, and were also placed a little further away.
But this time she didn't feel any pain, she just felt that she couldn't come up with anything better.
She waited until she had put away all the things she had bought before leaving.
Gu Yanchen was running out of topics to talk about, so he heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her come out.
"Brother Zhao, let's go in and move our things."
Zhao Zihui didn't think much about it. With a wave of his hand, fifty people quickly entered the second cave.
When moving the food, a soldier noticed some packages of things in the distance. He walked forward curiously to take a look and thought he was dazzled or hallucinating.
"General, these...are these for us too?"
Zhao Zihui hurried over and pulled out a tied military coat, then looked at Ran Qingxuan in confusion.
"Ma'am, what is this?"
Merchants in the mall roll clothes together and bundle them for sale, otherwise things like plastic bags will cause unnecessary trouble to time travelers.
Seeing this, Ran Qingxuan stepped forward and cut the cable tie with a knife. After unfolding it and shaking it, the others could see that it was clothes.
"General Zhao, try it on."
"For... for me?"
Ran Qingxuan nodded, handed it to him, then opened another piece and handed it to the nearest person.
The soldier took it in disbelief, put it on, and was soon wrapped in warmth.
The others looked at him enviously, but Ran Qingxuan told them directly that no one had it.
"Ma'am, do we have any, too?"
"Otherwise, I bought about 50,000 of these military coats, which should be enough for you to wear."
"Fifty thousand pieces..."
Before the soldiers could even gasp in amazement, Ran Qingxuan came over with several pairs of shoes.
"Each of you should put on a pair of these shoes first, and then divide them up after you bring all the things back."
She prefers to buy bigger shoes rather than smaller ones. With so many people around, she can always exchange them if the ones she gets don’t fit.
The soldiers got new clothes and new shoes, and they worked more vigorously.
Zhao Zihui was wearing a military coat with an excited smile on his face, but soon his eyes turned red.
Gu Yanchen couldn't help but tease: "Why, you're crying even though you've already put on your clothes and shoes?"
"Who is crying...who is crying..."
Not wanting his men to see his embarrassing appearance, Zhao Zihui quickly turned away and sighed.
"You know, there are only 30,000 soldiers guarding the North Pass, and the remaining 20,000 are distributed in various passes. It is unknown how long the Yigui people plan to resist this time. The Marquis of Zhenbei has already written a letter to urgently recall them."
"I can imagine how happy they will be when they put on warm clothes and shoes."
Gu Yanchen understood his feelings best and patted his shoulder to comfort him.
The soldiers did not feel tired at all while carrying the food, but one trip was not enough to move all the food. Zhao Zihui ordered people to guard it, and he followed the team back to the barracks first.
“Fortunately, the cave is only a quarter of an hour away from the military camp, so your return trip should go unnoticed.
But I'm afraid you won't have time to rest tonight. After all, after the clothes are distributed, the food needs to be stored properly. ”
Zhao Zihui understood this, and during the conversation just now, he already knew that Gu Yanchen and others were going to "Blue Rain" to look for Gu Yanxing, and he kept reminding them about this.
Before leaving, Zhao Zihui solemnly thanked Ran Qingxuan!
"Madam, the Marquis said that the war was tight and he couldn't come to thank you in person, but he will definitely not let you down."
"What I did is nothing..."
After that, Ran Qingxuan quickly reminded: "I forgot to mention that I also bought a lot of medicines. These things are quite important and must be carefully guarded so that nothing goes wrong."
Zhao Zihui nodded solemnly: "Madam, your preparations are thorough, I think it will save many lives."
