When Lao Xu came to exchange supplies for the second time, it was already many days later. He returned with 30 empty buckets. This time he asked for 50 buckets of water, and in addition to the normal fast food, he also asked for a lot of rice, flour, grain and oil, and bought a lot of honeycomb coal from her.

Lao Xu has almost monopolized all the retail investors in Tiandu Prefecture.

The weather here is not like the construction site where fires are burning for days, so the wood can still be dried. The diesel used to generate electricity in many people's homes has been used up after such a long time of consumption. They have started burning furniture, so coal has naturally become the first choice to keep warm.

Only a few people from Tiandu Prefecture went to work at the construction site, including the man from 1911.

The money has no use anymore, and a lot of it is in the bank. After exchanging all the gold, silver, and jade in the house, how can we survive?

Chen Ye did not raise the price as he said in the last transaction, but kept the original price. Even the price of honeycomb coal was very cheap.

Lao Xu thanked her happily and praised her as a good person.

Chen Ye glanced at him.

Lao Xu felt uneasy when she looked at him, but he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't raise the price with them. We can just stick together to keep each other warm and try to make sure everyone can survive."

Chen Ye sneered in his heart, and asked him to wait at the door, and asked several men in the family to go to the basement to move the supplies out.

Two of the people following Lao Xu were originally from property management, and Chen Ye didn’t recognize the remaining two.

She had no good feelings towards the property people and said coldly, "Just wait."

Picking up the gold, silver, jade and other precious stones that Lao Xu had brought, he closed the door with a snap and walked into the house.

Instead of talking to them, it’s better to play with Ayuan.

After A Yuan recovered, he trained with Dunmo for a long time and seemed to have actually learned a few tricks.

Even if he hasn't learned it, his brute force is indeed unmatched by many.

Daqi and Xiaoqi play very well with Ayuan and Tuanzi. No one knows how they communicate with each other. When Chen Ye goes to bed at night, she has to take them into her room.

However, Daqi and Xiaoqi were still too noisy. After they destroyed a lot of her crops in the space, she would not let them in. She would not let them go to bed with her every day, otherwise she would stew them and eat their dog meat.

Chen Chen couldn't stand it. A Yuan and Tuan Zi only liked to follow Chen Ye at night because they could go to the space to hang out and ignore everyone else. Now that Da Qi and Xiao Qi were born, Chen Chen let them go to his room to mess around.

The carpet in front of the fireplace was covered with Daqi and Xiaoqi's hair. Uncle Li went to the basement to move supplies. After Chen Ye combed the loose hair of Daqi and Xiaoqi, he took out the vacuum cleaner and tidied the hall.

In addition to water, there were still many other supplies in the basement. Chen Ye only needed to throw the empty water tower in the basement into the space when no one was there, and then fill it with water from the lotus spring, and put it back in place.

If the food in the basement is not cleaned out, it will eventually expire and spoil if left for too long.

After everything is cleared, she can find a time to replenish it all at once from the storage in the large space warehouse.

Lao Xu hadn't finished moving all the goods when he received news from the construction site that the honeycomb coal that was left in the operation room to be dried with the remaining fire had all disappeared.

Due to the good discipline in recent days and the fact that there were people on duty, and the fact that the remaining materials were put back into the big warehouse and locked up every day, only a batch of honeycomb coal that was still being baked was left in the operation room, and they planned to put it in the finished product warehouse early in the morning.

Unexpectedly, when I came to see in the morning, the lock of the iron door of the operation room was broken, and there was nothing inside, nothing was left, everything was emptied out. Because it was too early, I thought Chen Ye had not woken up yet, so I searched for it myself first, and then came to tell her.

Chen Ye smiled coldly, "Oh, since you can't rob, you just steal it. How smart!"

Several soldiers on duty were on the verge of tears.

"It's not a big deal, it's not worth much. I don't blame you. If there's one, there'll be another. Let's discuss how to catch them first."

Chen Ye looked at the soldiers and saw that the skin around their exposed eyes had been cracked and had formed brown scabs.

"Where are your goggles?"

Several people lowered their heads and said nothing.

"Did you send it off?"

Seeing no one answered, Chen Ye sneered. He turned to He Fen and Lian Yi and asked, "What do you think?"

"This must be a multi-person crime."

Li Guanglin handed over a roster, "Here are the people who come to work every day."

"Chu Huaifeng has already returned to the base to interrogate everyone who did not return home last night."

Chen Ye shook his head. "In this weather, if the people next door don't come back, will you get up in the middle of the night to check?"

meeting!

Lian Yizhong just agreed in his heart without saying anything.

"Keep it like this, and don't lock the door at night. Keep an eye out for people coming to work."

He Fen got anxious when he heard this, "How can that be possible? That would be giving it away for free."

Chen Ye looked at Yi Lianyi and said, "Danmo is busy. He will come over when he is done. You can discuss with him and see if you can set a trap."

Lian Yi nodded.

He Fen seemed to have realized what was happening. He slapped his head and said that he was old and could not keep up with the thinking of young people.

Chen Ye checked the progress again and saw that a lot of honeycomb coal had been piled up in the finished product warehouse. He told He Fen to pack them up as soon as possible, as Qin Wei's truck would probably come to transport them away in the next few days.

Qin Wei should have arrived in the capital, but I don’t know if Mai Zihao has arrived yet.

Chen Ye was lost in thought and didn't notice Lian Yi calling her. When she came to her senses, she found that Lian Yi was looking at her with... resentment?!

"What's the matter?" What's with that look in his eyes?

"Who is Miss Chen thinking about?"

"Boss Qin, I don't know if he has arrived in Beijing in this weather." If he has not expanded the market for her after arriving, who will she sell so many supplies to? "What did you just say?"

"It's time to eat. Do you want to stay and eat with me?"

"No. I want to see what you guys are eating. Have you taken any food away to feed the wolves?"

Today's meal looked good, with beef ribs and carrot soup, potatoes and chicken nuggets, and a thick layer of pumpkin cubes under the steamed pork with rice flour. There was a big pot of rice cooking on the side, and several large trays of steamed buns.

At this point, it is considered quite rich. Although there are not many dishes, the portions are sufficient.

The firemen cooking in the kitchen were all smiling.

"Lian Yi, what happened to those people who were walking back?"

"Oh, they divide the food into half and take it back to their families. It's like this every day."

Chen Ye looked at the backs of those people as they walked away. This round trip would probably use up the few calories they had eaten.

As if sensing what Chen Ye was thinking, Lian Yi added, "Don't worry, we will all eat less so that they can have enough to eat and bring some food to their families. We can't let the people lose hope of living."

She couldn't beat them, she couldn't beat them. But she didn't want to join them either.

Lian Yi's eyes were no longer sharp as before, but were filled with compassion.

Chen Ye chuckled.
