With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

"Master! Let's run away!"

"That's right! Those soldiers have all broken in!"

"If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave!"

In the large courtyard made of blue bricks, three women surrounded a man, their faces filled with anxiety.

The man surrounded in the middle was in his early forties and his name was Gao Xiangui. He was the largest landlord in the entire Yang County.

Gao Xiangui slammed his palm on the coffee table, making a deafening sound. "What are you arguing about? I have my own way!"

The three women all quieted down, but their faces still showed anxiety and worry.

They are the wives of the noble Gaos. Since they married into the Gao family, they have lived a life of luxury for several years.

Not only do you not have to work, but you also have maids and servants to serve you.

While others were working in the fields, facing the earth and eating cold steamed buns, they were sitting leisurely in the courtyard eating expensive pastries.

The reason for such a huge difference is that the Gao family has land and money.

Half of the land in Yangcheng belongs to their family. They don’t have to do any work, and the rent they collect is enough to support several generations.

Moreover, he has recently started a loan sharking business, and the amount of assets in his family is unimaginable.

Gao Xiangui stood up and told the three wives, "Pack up all the valuables in your room and ask the wives to move them to the backyard later."

"Hey, good, good!"

The three women, who were like frightened birds, hurried back to their rooms to pack their things after hearing his instructions.

Soon the maids moved all the valuable things in their rooms to the backyard.

The jewelry boxes were sparkling with gold, silver, jade, bracelets, necklaces, and rings, filling several large boxes.

There was a piece of wasteland next to the backyard. I dug a place with a hoe and lifted a wooden board, and found a cellar underneath.

The wives all understood it in their hearts. No wonder the master was not in a hurry. It turned out that he had this trick!

A beautiful woman in her twenties leaned against Gao Xiangui with a flattering look on her face.

"Hehe, our master still has a solution!"

Gao Xiangui also looked very proud, "That's right! If you want to take advantage of me, you won't succeed!"

The space under this cellar is very large, and all the valuable items in the house are placed in it, including several large boxes of silver dollars.

He also opened the largest grain store in the county town, and secretly transported all the grain back before dawn.

The entire cellar was filled with sacks of grain.

After everything was stuffed into the cellar, Gao Xiangui pointed at the two farmhands and gave them instructions.

"Fill the cellar with more soil so that no traces are left."

These two farmhands had worked in his family for most of their lives, and at this moment they lowered their heads and obeyed in a submissive manner.

"Okay, sir."

The farmhand covered the cellar with soil again, and the cellar was completely hidden.

Whether you look at it from a distance or up close, it is just an ordinary piece of wasteland.

Gao Xiangui put his hands behind his back and walked to the side of the farmhand.

"If you two dare to say a word about this, you won't be able to live, and your family won't be able to live either!"

A farmhand looked up in horror and met his sinister and fierce eyes.

Cold sweat instantly broke out on my back and my voice trembled.

"Master! We won't say anything! We won't say anything!"

"Hmph, that's fine."

Gao Xiangui sneered, walked back to his room, and continued to lie down and drink tea.

At this time, in the enemy's warehouse, the Minister of Ordnance, Chen Gang, walked in at great speed.

When he heard the soldiers report that there was a lot of cotton in the warehouse, he was immediately overjoyed and rushed over without delay.

The weather was getting colder, and the soldiers' clothes were too thin. As the Minister of Munitions, he was so worried that many of his hair turned white.

He squatted down and touched the pure white cotton in the cloth bag with his hand, his inner excitement was beyond words.

"Xiao Wang, send more soldiers to move the cotton back to the camp first!"

"Yes!"

20 kilograms of cotton were piled up into several small hills in the camp.

The Minister of Ordnance also bought a lot of cloth from shops in the county town.

Then all the female comrades in the army and the male comrades who could sew were called together.

Minister of Ordnance Chen Gang was holding a military uniform in his hand. The fabric was thin and there were many patches on it.

"Comrades! We have just seized a large amount of cotton! We don't have to endure the cold anymore!"

Upon hearing this, thunderous applause broke out all around. Everyone was very excited. The cotton in front of them was as high as several mountains, which was not a small amount.

Chen Gang continued, "We need to sew the cotton into the clothes, but we can't stay in Yangcheng for long. We have to leave in two days, so we need to finish this job as soon as possible!"

After these words were spoken, the people below were in a dilemma.

Not many people were called here today, because there were relatively few female soldiers in the entire Central Red Army, only a few dozen.

Including some male warriors who know needlework, there are only about two hundred people here today.

The entire team has more than 8 people, and they have to sew more than 8 sets of clothes. What a terrifying workload!

A female soldier below was embarrassed and said, "Minister Chen, the workload is too heavy. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to finish it in a few days!"

Chen Gang sighed, "Alas, we have to work hard day and night. If we really can't finish it, we can only take these cotton fabrics with us and work on it on the way."

Zhou Yue put forward her own opinion at this time.

"Minister, how about we mobilize the folks in the county to help?"

"This……"

After hearing this suggestion, Chen Gang began to think about the feasibility, but he felt a little embarrassed.

Their discipline is not to take a single penny or thread from the people and not to disturb their normal lives.

Zhou Yue saw the minister's concerns and continued, "We won't let the villagers help for free. As long as they come to help with the work, we should pay them some money."

Others in the audience also echoed, "Yes! These villagers can also earn more, right?"

Chen Gang showed a warm smile on his face, "Okay! Then let's do as this comrade says!"

In fact, there is no shortage of silver dollars in the army. Before the Long March, the Red Army had a good financial foundation.

The reason why people were so short of food and clothing during the Long March was because they had money but no money to spend.

It is difficult to meet people in the wilderness, let alone merchants.

Especially when crossing snow-capped mountains and grasslands, money becomes useless and you can only starve to death or freeze to death.

When a group of people were about to disperse, suddenly a middle-aged woman with gray hair and tattered clothes rushed into the crowd and hugged the quartermaster's thigh.

He fell to his knees with a thud, tears streaming down his face.

The voice was vicissitudes and sorrowful, "Sir! Please help me! Sir!"
