They had a comfortable hotpot meal and everyone rested there, patting their stomachs.
Everyone felt very full and happy!
Soon, Mrs. Liu left with a lot of words of gratitude.
Chu Xi was helpless just looking at the big bag of mountain products. These were far inferior to those produced in the space. If he didn't accept them, people would definitely not be happy. If he accepted them, he would not be able to deal with them.
Suddenly, Chu Xi thought of the troops. Hadn't he thought of providing some supplies to the troops earlier, so he sent them there as well?
Chu Xi acted immediately and immediately slipped out of the military camp. After a little disguise and makeup, she looked like a middle-aged woman, but she had an extraordinary temperament.
So he waited at the door.
She knew that the army's quartermaster still needed to go out and buy materials. After all, the supply from the logistics department was not enough for everyone's daily consumption, so he could only find a way on his own, such as going to the surrounding villages and towns to purchase some mountain products and wild animals.
More than half an hour later, when she saw a cart coming out of the army gate, she knew that the person she was waiting for had arrived.
She had once inadvertently asked Shi Peng about the procurement of supplies for the troops and learned about the existence of the quartermaster.
Looking at the quartermaster who was gradually pushing the cart towards him, Chu Xi walked straight towards him.
Looking at the middle-aged woman in front of him, the quartermaster was also confused. Is she looking for me?
He often interacts with local people and appears to be much more friendly.
"Hello, comrade, are you going to buy supplies? I happen to have some supplies here. Do you need them?" Chu Xi spoke calmly and nonchalantly.
This made the quartermaster very excited. After all, purchasing supplies often yielded very little. It was not because he had no money, but because he could not buy anything even if he had money. He did not know how many times he had been scolded for this.
"I'm from Limeng Mountain. I just came out and wanted to exchange some things. I happened to pass by your place. The army must need it, right?"
Chu Xi made up a place name at random and said it naturally.
"Where are your things?"
"It's in the yard over there. Let's go together. But there's a lot of stuff. Do you want to find a car?"
It was an empty house that Chu Xi had just randomly found. She had already placed the supplies there and even randomly found a lock to hang on it.
The quartermaster looked at the cart in his hand, a little puzzled, but said nothing more.
"Let's take a look first!"
The two of them turned an intersection one after the other, and Chu Xi opened a yard.
Looking at the dozens of sacks of grain, five big wild boars, and a large pile of various wild animals and dry goods in the yard, the quartermaster was very surprised.
“This, this…”
"Wait for me, I'll go call someone..."
Before Chu Xi could speak, the man had already run away, leaving the cart aside.
Chu Xi was a little amused. She had just reminded him to find a car, but he didn't believe her.
In less than five minutes, the panting quartermaster came over with a squad of soldiers. After all, this place was too close to the troops.
"The truck will be here soon. Let's talk about the price first." The quartermaster was very cautious. After all, the person who could get so many good goods must be a person with ability or background, so he had to be cautious.
Looking at the excited facial expressions of the soldiers in that squad, Chu Xi could understand their difficulties.
"Just give me the normal price. Consider it our consolation to the people's soldiers. You can weigh it now!" Chu Xi was still calm.
This was high-quality merchandise that was hard to come by even on the black market. Seeing the golden cornmeal and the delicate, transparent rice, the quartermaster was a little excited. He was even happier when he heard the price! This was nearly half the price he'd imagined on the black market, saving him a lot of money on purchases.
Soon, a Jiefang truck stopped at the door and a large scale was brought over. Several people had clear division of labor and quickly counted everything.
However, Chu Xi walked out at some point while they were excited, and when the quartermaster wanted to settle the bill, he discovered that the seller was gone.
Looking at such fine supplies, the quartermaster began to doubt his life.
From the very beginning, he realized that the seller was extraordinary. He demanded a normal price as a token of consolation to the people's soldiers. Now that he had disappeared, he estimated that he would not be able to pay the money for the goods.
But how can I explain it to my leader?
Chu Xi, who had already returned to the family compound, just silently watched the excitement of the officers and soldiers of the regiment. They hadn't really eaten meat in a long time. Occasionally, each of them would get a pitiful one or two slices to satisfy their appetite. That feeling...
Feeling the difficulties faced by the troops and the lack of supplies, Chu Xi began to think again...
