Chapter 166

, the transaction with the D city base

In a short while, a small pot full of fragrant meat was stewed over high heat, gradually emitting bursts of aroma.

Everyone gathered around the pot, staring at it eagerly.

My nose sniffed the fragrance in the air, my throat rolled up and down uncontrollably, and my mouth kept secreting saliva.

Yu Keke joked, "What a bunch of little greedy cats. Just wait five more minutes."

Finally, the meal was served, and they felt that the five minutes seemed like a very long time.

Everyone held their own bowl in their hands, waiting for Yu Keke to share their rice.

Yu Keke picked up a large spoon and served the rice to Fang Xin first.

Then she served the food to other people. Her hands were steady. She didn't shake the spoon constantly like the auntie who served food when I was in school.

Each person gets a big bowl.

After preparing meals for several wounded soldiers, she scooped the remaining food from the pot into her own bowl.

Everyone found a place to sit down and started eating.

For a moment, there was no sound of talking, only the sound of chewing.

Although the weather was hot and everyone was sweating while eating, they were all very satisfied.

At night, the captain led a few people to check the condition of the car. After making sure that there was no damage to the car, they arranged for someone to keep watch.

As usual, they picked up a pile of dry firewood to enclose the rest area. When everything was ready, everyone went into the tent to rest.

Fang Xin sprinkled some insect repellent outside his tent.

A basin full of ice was placed in the tent, and the man and the dog were finally able to rest.

After two days of rest, the wounded's injuries had begun to heal and they were able to move without any major problems, so they set out for the D City base.

According to the captain, they came here to replace some medicinal materials. The amount of medicine used in the A City base is very large.

Since the other party did not succeed, just pretend that you were unaware of this and continue the transaction.

Four cars drove into the gate of D City Base.

He did not choose to enter the base rashly.

The car stopped and a group of people stood beside the truck in an orderly manner, keeping watch.

After revealing his identity, the guard at the gate quickly reported.

Fang Xin looked inside through the gate of the base.

The ordinary survivors in the D City base were skin and bones, with numbness in their eyes. They walked with difficulty, hunched over, as if walking took all the energy and they were about to fall down in the next second.

Although the ordinary survivors of the A City base are also very thin, their spirits are still good.

The A City Base has never given up on ordinary survivors, and they still have hope of survival.

You don't know until you compare. You'll be surprised when you do.

The two bases form a sharp contrast.

When the base manager learned that the supply vehicle had arrived at the base safely, he was stunned for a moment, which meant that the people he sent out to carry out the mission had failed.

He pounded the table in anger and cursed it secretly: "It's a piece of trash."

He immediately sent his assistant to receive him.

After receiving the order, the assistant turned around and ran out.

The base commander was still somewhat unwilling.

The person in charge came out politely with a big smile on his face.

"Oh, it's been a hard journey. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's okay. The supplies you need have been delivered. Where are our supplies?"

"You have traveled so long and must have been very tired. Rest and settle down first. We will send the supplies over tomorrow."

"No, let's hand it over as soon as possible. We have to hurry back."

The person in charge smiled and said, "Don't worry, the supplies are ready and we are waiting for you."

"Okay, then let's quickly complete the handover procedures."

"Come in and have a drink of water first. You guys must be thirsty after all the journey."

"No."

Seeing that this person was not interested, the person in charge smiled awkwardly and said, "Okay, let's check it first."

"Test it."

He turned around and quickly found some people to open the boxes and inspect the goods.

When the truck door opened, bags of food were revealed. His eyes lit up when he saw the truck full of food.

He took out a pair of pliers and checked each bag to make sure it was genuine food.

The other truck was full of sun-dried vegetables.

The person in charge strode over with a smile on his face. "Everything has been checked, and everything is fine."

"Okay, where are our supplies?"

"Don't be anxious, brothers. Why don't you go inside and take a rest and cool down?" He said this while making a gesture of invitation.

"Your supplies will be here soon. It's very hot outside. Come inside and wait for a while."

The captain waved his hand and said, "Don't bother, we can just wait here for a while."

"All right then."

Then the person in charge turned around, his face darkened, and he shouted angrily at some people, "What are you guys dawdling about for? Hurry up and drive your car in, you ignorant people, stop blocking the road."

The captain reached out his hand to stop him and said sternly, "This is against the rules. We haven't even seen our supplies yet. How can you drive the supply truck away? Besides, we have to drive our truck back."

The person in charge was shocked by the murderous aura of the captain.

He quickly wiped the big beads of sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, you are right. I was inconsiderate."

After waiting for about half an hour, they still hadn't seen the supplies they were going to replace.

The captain looked down at his watch and said to the person in charge calmly, "Is the stuff not ready yet? We'll come back when you're ready."

The person in charge stepped forward and said, "No, no, no, wait another ten minutes, I'll be right over."

Fang Xin watched the person in charge coldly from the side. This person had a pointed face, spoke vaguely, and did things in a rude manner. It was obvious that he had bad intentions.

At this time, the base commander wanted to go all out and get rid of these people in the base, but he still suppressed the greed in his heart. The A City Base must have known what they had done, but there was definitely no evidence and it was just speculation.

He couldn't do this in his own base, nor could he make things look too ugly.

We cannot become enemies with the A City Base now, so we have to grit our teeth and exchange supplies as agreed.

Finally, not long after, the supply truck slowly drove out.

The person in charge breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the supply truck coming. He smiled and said, "It's here, it's here. Please check it out."

The captain waved his hand and two team members immediately set off, opened the compartment and began to inspect the cargo.

After confirming that the supplies were in good condition, the captain breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's unload."

At the command, everyone immediately took action. After an hour, all the supplies on the two trucks were unloaded and the replaced herbs were loaded onto the trucks.

The medicinal materials were neatly stacked in a truck compartment.

There is a truckload of them.

The person in charge walked forward with a big smile on his face, "Captain, the supplies have been handed over. It's getting late, why don't we take a rest for a night and leave tomorrow morning."

"Have a few drinks, and I'll find some beauties to keep you company, what do you think?"

"No." The captain suppressed his disgust and waved his hand, "Thank you for your kindness, but we have a mission to complete and cannot stay for long. Please forgive us."

The person in charge nodded with interest, "Yes, business is more important. I won't force you to stay here. Be careful on the road!"
