After eating a tomato, the major general comfortably patted his stomach. There were no other vegetables to eat, and when he went to the toilet, he couldn't come out for at least twenty or thirty minutes.
My eyes darted towards the cucumber; oh, so tempting! I was really drooling over it!!
Zuo Ling is not hospitable, so he pretends not to see it.
The major general noticed Zuo Ling's attitude and knew that it would be difficult to negotiate.
"Young lady, my name is Zhao Hongyi, and I'm in charge of logistics in the military. You probably already guessed why I'm here. How about we talk about terms?"
Zuo Ling didn't want to talk about it.
It was nothing more than asking her to grow vegetables for the troops or to teach them vegetable growing techniques. She didn't have any vegetable growing techniques at all; the little she knew, she learned from Researcher Tang.
The cold-resistant sweet potatoes and potatoes have already taught her a lesson.
Unlike Researcher Tang, she's nothing without the space water. How can she go?!
"You want to buy vegetables from me? My vegetable garden is so small, after deducting what we eat ourselves, we can't sell much." Zuo Ling pretended to be naive.
Zhao Hongyi laughed: "You're joking, young lady. I would like to ask you to share your experience in growing vegetables with us."
The soldiers in the planting company nodded vigorously. After seeing the vegetables that Zuo Ling had planted, one of them wished he could kowtow and become her apprentice.
"I grow it the same way as everyone else, so there's nothing to teach you."
She was telling the truth, but nobody believed her.
Zhao Hongyi said solemnly:
“Young lady, with these successive natural disasters, it’s very difficult for one person to overcome them. Most of the soldiers are sick because they don’t have enough to eat, and the remaining few are just barely holding on. Our army has fallen. Young lady, try to think about what the chances are for the common people to survive?”
Zuo Ling understood the reasoning, but she truly had no experience to share, so she really couldn't go!
"I understand what you're saying, but I'm not holding anything back. I really don't have any special experience to share. Perhaps the feng shui here is good?"
Zuo Ling's face was full of sincerity.
Zhao Hongyi couldn't see a trace of insincerity on her face. She really had good feng shui.
Inwardly, I thought, "You're kidding me!"
"Girl, your excuse might fool a kindergarten kid, but it won't fool me."
Zuo Ling had nothing to say and glared at He Guiqi again.
The older sister's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and He Guiqi was so frightened that he took several steps back.
Pei Nansheng interjected, "We'll consider it and then give you an answer."
Zuo Ling secretly gave her brother a thumbs up. Her brother was so smart; given just one night, she could travel to several provinces.
No, it won't take a whole night; it can disappear in half an hour.
Zhao Hongyi needed a way out, so he smiled and said, "Okay, you guys think it over, I'll wait outside."
Waiting outside? If you wait outside, how are we supposed to run?
The troops were short of food, and soldiers were falling ill one after another, driving the commanders crazy. Even a major general went so far as to wait outside the door.
Zhao Hongyi said to wait outside the door, and he really did wait outside the door. Not only did he wait, but he also had the soldiers surround the entire courtyard.
The soldiers outside, unaware of the situation inside, were all armed and on high alert, their guns pointed at the courtyard, treating the people inside as serious criminals.
Zuo Ling and Pei Nansheng are both people with keen senses, and they know what's going on outside even without leaving the courtyard.
He Guiqi slapped himself twice, blaming himself for his foul mouth.
