"He probably thought you had plant-based abilities, and that your spatial abilities could be hidden. But..."
However, their exchange of submarines and other supplies with the military was so large that it inevitably aroused suspicion.
Zuo Ling sighed. She'd just have to take it one step at a time. No matter what, she was determined to get the submarine.
Following the grand convoy, the group traveled westward for seven days before reaching their new encampment.
To make it easier to transport supplies in the future, Zuo Ling and Pei Nansheng discussed and decided to release one van and one pickup truck.
Zhao Hongyi is a major general. For a minor matter like moving, there's no need for a high-ranking leader to intervene. He simply sent his adjutant to help Zuo Ling move.
The adjutant was unaware of Zuo Ling's family situation. Upon seeing the van and pickup truck, he didn't ask any questions. Even if he had doubts, he reasoned that they could grow vegetables even in the hottest weather, so what couldn't they exchange for them?
Moving was a real ordeal for Zuo Ling. The container was made up of four units combined into one, with many modifications. During disassembly, damage was inevitable, and reassembling it was also a hassle.
She watched the soldiers dismantle the equipment with a long face, making them feel uneasy, wondering what they had done to offend her.
Pei Nansheng found it amusing and whispered to him, "We'll build it when we get there."
The new encampment is located at the foot of a large mountain, with a river not far away. The river is wide, and the water resources seem to be in good condition so far.
The adjutant said that the distant mountains used to be snow-capped, but now, only one spot on the summit shows a trace of snow.
Zuo Ling made a request to his adjutant:
"Please help me settle down wherever there are few people and I won't be disturbed."
The military has its own plans, with living areas, residential areas, office areas, planting areas, breeding areas, workshops, warehouses, and so on, all arranged in an orderly manner.
Zuo Ling's request was inconsistent with the army's plans, putting the adjutant in a difficult position.
However, the commander instructed his adjutant to try to meet Zuo Ling's demands as long as they were not excessive.
After thinking for a long time, the adjutant allocated a plot of land for Zuo Ling on the edge of the planting area.
It took the brother and sister a week to get everything sorted out.
Since the materials in the space were difficult to take out, the two found some wood and broken planks and barely managed to enclose a small courtyard.
Zuo Ling was very dissatisfied; moving to the military region had lowered her quality of life.
Just as I finished tidying up, someone called from outside the yard: "Sister, sister, are you done tidying up? I'll help you."
Zuo Ling frowned, picked up her stick, and went out.
Seeing that things were not going well, He Guiqi covered his head and ran away, pleading with Pei Nansheng for help as he ran: "Brother, brother, sister hit me, please save me, please save me."
If the master hits someone, Xueye will definitely help, so she rushes over with a howl.
The dog's mouth was even scarier than her sister's stick, so much so that He Guiqi's voice changed:
"Sister, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, I will never do it again, I will never do it again."
Pei Nansheng called Xue Ye back, and He Guiqi hid behind Pei Nansheng and begged for forgiveness: "Sister, I was wrong, I was just being mean, please forgive me."
Zuo Ling was just trying to scare him. She snorted and went into the house with the stick.
Patting He Guiqi on the shoulder, Pei Nansheng smiled and said, "Not bad, you've been promoted."
The last time I saw He Guiqi, he was just a common soldier; this time he's got a star on him.
Having just escaped a dog's jaws, He Guiqi smugly straightened his military uniform: "Thanks to my sister, I was promoted exceptionally."
Not only was he promoted exceptionally, but his disciplinary action was also revoked.
Given He Guiqi's family background, he would have been promoted and given important responsibilities even without Zuo Ling.
He was the first person to discover Zuo Ling's vegetable garden, which was a great achievement, making his promotion all the more reasonable.
