Chapter 537: The Scourge Goes into the Mountains to Gather Firewood
"Do you need me to send someone to keep an eye on her?" Jiang Jiyuan noticed that his sister's mood had changed.
Jiang Jiyun shook his head and said, "No, let's talk about it when we get back in the evening!"
She planned to ask Ye Zechuan and others to prepare some information about that special period, and then show it to Comrade Zhou and Comrade Mao. After the country was established, these people would be marginalized and people would be sent to keep an eye on them secretly. If there were any abnormalities, she would deal with them personally, even if it cost her a price.
While exchanging things, Jiang Jiyun took advantage of everyone's inattention, quietly approached the screen and spoke to Ye Zechuan in a low voice about his request.
Ye Zechuan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what she meant.
Jiang Jiyun quickly loaded the piles of golden gold into one empty container after another.
Ye Zechuan and Cheng Qingqing stood aside, looking at the containers filled with gold, with surprised expressions on their faces.
Cheng Qingqing couldn't help but joked, "Whose safe was this robbed?" Ye Zechuan also laughed along.
"It's from the devil's family!"
However, when they heard Jiang Jiyun's answer, their smiles froze on their faces instantly.
The gold was actually obtained from the devil's vault! This news shocked them, and they realized that the reason why Jiang Jiyun rarely entered the space in the past year was to do such a big thing.
Jiang Jiyuan stood not far away, watching the originally empty ground being filled with containers in an instant.
After completing the exchange of gold, they went to the arsenal together and took out the required materials from the space.
Then, they rushed to the logistics department without stopping and released the special medicine and other important supplies.
After everything was arranged, Jiang Jiyun suddenly said to Ye Zechuan: "Brother, it's still early, let's go find the people in the kitchen. There are too many animals in the space. If we don't deal with some of them, the animals in my mountain will be squeezed to death. Soon they won't even be able to stretch their feet!"
Before dark, they arrived at the kitchen and found Squad Leader Tang, and came to the place they had prepared long ago.
There were fences built one after another on a vacant lot. Jiang Jiyun and his brother left pigs, sheep, rabbits, pheasants, ducks and roe deer in each fence.
"Do you want the fish?" Jiang Jiyuan asked Squad Leader Tang after his sister reminded him.
"Yes, but we have to wait until tomorrow. I will take people to dig a small pond tonight." Squad Leader Tang said excitedly.
Jiang Jiyuan nodded in agreement. "Try to make these into jerky. This way it is easier to store. When you are fighting, you can chew them while fighting without any interference."
"I understand! The rice and vegetables you gave me that can be eaten after heating itself is also very convenient. This jerky is paired with that and we have both meat and vegetables." Squad Leader Tang was very happy when he saw the "meat" that was about to burst the fence.
Jiang Jiyuan knew that the vehicles transporting supplies had come and gone several times, so the empty place was filled up by them again today.
Jiang Jiyun also filled up her brother's space, so that when they were not together, she would not have to worry about him.
The next day, before dawn, Jiang Jiyun was carried by his brother to the five ponds that had been dug. Squad Leader Tang watched as three of the ponds were suddenly filled with fish, while the other two ponds were full of shrimps and crabs.
When ordinary people saw this scene, they would think that these were fish, shrimps and crabs growing out of the ground.
"Fill it with water, otherwise everyone will die..." Before Squad Leader Tang finished his words, he saw water in the pit.
Those crabs that were about to crawl out all shrank back into the water at the same time.
"Brother, the school has started the holiday today. They said that you should go home and help dig sweet potatoes. My family doesn't have any land. Can I move freely?" Jiang Jiyun hugged his brother's neck.
When Jiang Jiyuan heard that his sister wanted to move freely, he felt a chill down his spine. He found an excuse and said, "I'm afraid not. Your handwriting is too ugly, and you can't write calligraphy. Don't you want to practice it?"
When Jiang Jiyun heard that he had to practice calligraphy, he instantly became discouraged. Traditional Chinese characters, and writing them with a brush, was simply a death sentence.
"Xiao Yun! Xiao Yun! We are going to collect firewood in the mountains today and have a pig-killing dinner in the evening. Do you want to come with us?" Qi Guimei called Jiang Jiyun with a group of children.
"Okay, okay!" Jiang Jiyun instantly perked up and she twisted in her brother's arms, trying to get off.
Jiang Jiyuan could only let her go, grabbed her by the collar and said, "Go back and change your clothes and get some tools."
Jiang Jiyun, who was struggling hard, looked down at her pink jacket and stopped. She looked up and shouted to Qi Guimei, "Sister Guimei, wait for me for a while. I'm going home to change clothes!"
Jiang Wenming, who was washing clothes in the yard, heard that she was going to the mountains to collect firewood and said worriedly, "Xiao Yun, you won't get into trouble today, will you?"
"I'll just go to the mountains with them to collect firewood, and I'll take a look at what herbs to transplant back." Jiang Jiyun suddenly realized, "No, uncle, what do you mean?"
"They mean that you are the troublemaker." Ma Chao and Zhang An came back after training and started making straw sandals.
"You are the troublemaker!" Jiang Jiyun said angrily and ran into the house to change his clothes and shoes, ignoring the laughter in the yard.
Jiang Jiyun changed into the clothes and pants that her uncle had patched up with several patches for her, and her shoes were also patched up.
After listening to Jiang Jiyun's great achievements for a while, Xiao Wei and Xiao Tian decided to go to the mountain with her.
Jiang Jiyun carried a small backpack and a water bottle and said to them, "Brother Xiaowei, Brother Xiaotian, we are just collecting firewood near the foot of the mountain and we are not going deep into the mountains. We will probably bring the firewood back soon. You might as well rest at home instead of following us back and forth!"
Jiang Jiyuan also said, "Don't worry today, because making jerky requires a lot of firewood. Today, many soldiers in the team went into the mountains to chop firewood. They will not sit idly by if something happens."
Jiang Jiyun took the rope and happily ran to the village entrance to join the team.
Listening to Qi Erlong chattering with her, Zhou Xi followed beside them carrying the same equipment as Jiang Jiyun.
A group of children went into the mountains laughing and met soldiers who were also going into the mountains.
Jiang Jiyun finished eating the vegetable cake in his hand, took out a piece of paper to wipe his hands and mouth, and then pulled Erlong and Zhou Xi to chase the people in front.
"Xiao Yun, there are too many people collecting firewood here. Let's go over there." Erlong looked at the crowd in front and pointed in another direction.
Jiang Jiyun looked at the direction he pointed. It looked a bit like the place where she chased wild goats. There were indeed quite a few trees there. She still remembered that there were two big dead trees.
When they saw soldiers walking that way, the three children left the children's team and joined the adult team.
"Captain, there is a child following us." Yu Jin reported to Wang Guangming.
Wang Guangming turned around in surprise and saw three little kids grunting and following behind their team.
"It's okay. They probably just want to follow us to collect firewood. When we chop wood, just one more chop will be enough to kill them, so that the people behind can pay more attention to these three children." Wang Guangming laughed as he watched them trying hard to keep up with his group.
