"Of course, if you are willing to catch centipedes by yourself, that's fine. I'll ask someone else to come." Leng Yi said.

There are still a lot of centipedes in the mountains now. Some people can catch hundreds of kilograms a day, which is more than two kilograms of grain.

Of course, the work here will be easier, it's up to them to weigh it themselves.

The other person hesitated and felt that it would be more promising to follow Leng Yi. Director Hao had been here just now, so it must be reliable.

"I'll come tomorrow too," the man said, "Brother Yi, my name is Lin Feng, you can call me Xiao Lin or A Feng."

"Okay!" Leng Yi gave the food to the two of them, "It doesn't have to be too early tomorrow. Just come after breakfast."

"Don't touch the iron door with your hands. The electricity will be on when we don't come out. Just ring the doorbell when we come."

"I got it, Brother Yi." The two left happily with the food, then turned around and waved, "Brother Yi, goodbye!"

"See you tomorrow!" Leng Yi nodded.

After moving all the centipedes into the room, Lu Lin came over to help move the scales, while Yang Qing threw all the centipedes into the space.

"You must be tired. You can take a shower in the first space and then come out to eat." Yang Qing said to Leng Yi.

Now that space can support living things, just put Leng Yi in there alone.

There have been a lot fewer centipedes outside. Yang Qing glued iron mesh screens over the holes so that centipedes can't get in and the air conditioners can be used again.

After Leng Yi took a shower, he shouted inside and Yang Qing took him out.

Leng Yi said while wiping his wet hair, "I saw a yellow ball the size of a table tennis ball in the sky above the space. Is it the energy absorbed by the centipede?"

Yang Qing was surprised, "Is it the size of a table tennis ball? It was only the size of a red date when I went in in the afternoon. It seems that I gained a lot today."

Leng Yi nodded, "At least a few thousand kilograms today."

"By the way, what did Director Hao come to talk about today?" Leng Yi asked again.

"I told him that centipedes are edible and the benefits of purchasing centipedes. He also thought it was feasible. He said that if centipedes are indeed edible, he would bring food and let us help purchase centipedes." Yang Qing said.

"That's great, we don't need to put food in advance." Leng Yi said with a smile.

"I think so too, and we have hired two people now, and we have to pay wages and rations to them. We can't pay them back, so I asked Director Hao for a 1% commission. Isn't this excessive?" Yang Qing said.

"It's not too much. If it weren't for us, they might not be able to think of this method. And we work so hard, we should be paid some hard work."

"That means you are kind. If those capitalists are the ones, it may be 10%, no, 50% is possible." Leng Yi said.

Yang Qing nodded. She just didn't want to make this kind of "disaster fortune" and rob things from the country. She could go outside to find supplies, or even rob the bad guys' things, but she didn't want to make this kind of fortune because she would have uneasy conscience.

After dinner, the three of them went back to their room to rest early. They were all tired after a long day.

Yang Qing lay on the bed and looked sideways at Leng Yi, touching his face, "I've gotten tanned outside in the past two days."

"What, have you become ugly?" Leng Yi smiled, grabbed Yang Qing's hand and covered his face.

Her hands were soft and smooth, and felt comfortable to the touch.

Yang Qing shook his head, "He's not ugly, he's still handsome. It doesn't matter if a man is dark, he's not that dark after all."

Leng Yi smiled, "When I was a soldier, I was called a black man. I practiced outside every day and sometimes worked at sea. Everyone was as tan as black coal."

"Did I get tanned today?" Yang Qing asked, raising her face and approaching Leng Yi.

He hugged Yang Qing into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her, "It's not black, it's still white. It doesn't matter if it's a little darker. In my heart, you are prettier than anyone else."

Yang Qing pursed her lips and smiled, "Why is your mouth so sweet?"

I really couldn't see it before. When I first met him, I really thought he was aloof and indifferent, and he didn't seem to be an easy person to get along with.

As time went by, I realized that he was actually a person who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

"There's something sweeter, do you want to try it?" Leng Yi pulled her into his arms and pressed her tightly against her.

"Aren't you tired? It's been a busy day today." Yang Qing's cheeks turned red and her eyes were wet.

"You underestimate your husband's physical strength. In the past, it was common for us to practice for days and nights without sleeping..." Leng Yi lowered his head and kissed him.

The next day, Li Liang and Lin Feng came over at about 8:30. They were afraid that they would come too early and they would not get up yet.

After ringing the doorbell, Leng Yi came out and opened the door.

After a night, there were a lot more centipedes in the yard, and the two of them quickly helped clean them up.

Yang Qing walked out of the door, "Xiao Li, Xiao Lin, have you had breakfast?"

"I've eaten, sister-in-law!" The two of them responded quickly.

Yang Qing still took out four meat buns, two for each person, "Here, eat the buns."

Li Liang waved his hand quickly, "No, sister-in-law, we have really eaten."

"Just take it if you are told to eat it." Leng Yi said.

Li Liang and Lin Feng quickly wiped their hands on their bodies. They were so short of water now that it was impossible to wash their hands with water. If they didn't eat clean, they wouldn't get sick.

He took the bun and smiled sheepishly at Yang Qing, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"

Yang Qing pursed her lips and entered the room with a smile without saying anything.

The two of them were eating steamed buns and were so moved that they almost cried. This was the first time they had eaten meat buns in such a long time. It was so delicious.

The two of them ate one and wanted to save one for their family, but they thought the buns would be sour after working all day in such a hot day, so they decided to eat it.

After eating the steamed buns, I worked harder to pick up the centipede, cleaning everything in the yard, on the walls, and on the top floor.

After that, people came one after another to exchange food.

Everyone knows that centipedes can be exchanged for food. Some people stay awake all night to catch centipedes, fearing that they will be caught by others if it is too late.

There were not many people, so Leng Yi sat inside and watched Li Liang and Lin Feng exchange money outside.

Suddenly two young men wearing designer clothes came over.

"We need to change into two sets of protective clothing." one of them said.

Leng Yi looked at them and saw that they didn't have any centipedes in their hands. He couldn't help but said: "One set of protective clothing is equivalent to one thousand catties of centipedes."

"Aren't a thousand catties of centipedes equal to ten catties of grain?" The man curled his lips, "Here are twenty catties of grain, look at it."

After speaking, he threw the food at Leng Yi's feet and looked at him with disdain.

Leng Yi did not move, and glanced at the two of them lightly, "I said, one set of protective clothing is worth one thousand catties of centipedes, two sets is two thousand catties of centipedes. We only want centipedes, not food!"

"Hey, let me tell you, two thousand kilograms of centipedes are twenty kilograms of grain, aren't they? What's the difference? We don't miss you, so why don't you use it?"

"Isn't he just a centipede trader? What's his air?" The two of them looked contemptuous.

Li Liang and Lin Feng stopped and looked at the two people, their faces a little angry.

Leng Yi sneered, "Yes, I'm just a centipede trader. I only want centipedes. If you want to trade them, get out of here!"

"You!" The two of them became angry, "Okay, you want a centipede, right?"

The two of them looked at the people who were queuing up to exchange food. "Which of you can exchange for centipedes for me? The food will be yours."

The people behind looked at each other in confusion, but most of the centipedes in their hands were only one or two hundred kilograms, and some only weighed dozens of kilograms. How could he exchange them for two thousand kilograms?
