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

"Brother, let me see the ulcer in your mouth."

Zhou Xing opened her mouth obediently, and she could see clearly in the sunlight.

There were several ulcers in the mouth, and they were very large, as big as the tip of the little finger. The gums were swollen and bleeding.

Zhou Yue thought of her brother's dry skin. He usually didn't get injured, but his skin was often bruised.

This is not a mouth ulcer caused by anger!

This is a sign of severe vitamin C deficiency in the body!

In the army, vitamin C deficiency is a very common phenomenon, which has a great impact on the health of soldiers.

In mild cases, it can lead to a decrease in the body's immunity, and in severe cases, it can lead to scurvy.

Zhou Yue checked the plus signs next to the soldiers' health values ​​and found that vitamin C deficiency was very common in the army.

Her eyes suddenly lit up. If she could provide her comrades with enough vitamin C and improve their immunity, their health value would definitely increase!

My points are finally settled!

As the afternoon progressed, Zhou Yue kept thinking, how can I give everyone more vitamin C?

Adding VC tablets to drinking water? Definitely not, the smell will be obvious.

There are many kinds of fruits rich in vitamin C, but she thought about it and realized that there are far fewer fruits that will bear fruit in November.

After some thought, she finally locked on her target, orange.

During the afternoon march, many people were extremely tired.

Because everyone's load was much heavier this time, we gritted our teeth and carried it through in the morning, but in the afternoon we really couldn't walk anymore, and the marching speed was much slower than before.

The arts soldiers in the camp sang songs to encourage everyone, and instructor Liu Yaowen also encouraged everyone.

"Come on, everyone! Once we get over this mountain ahead, we'll be able to rest at the next mountain. Victory is just around the corner!"

At this time, Zhou Yue and her brother were supporting each other. She was carrying a large bamboo basket, which contained a lot of things for the kitchen team.

Along the way, her feet were rubbed so hard by the straw sandals that they hurt. Although there were rubber shoes, the soldiers didn't wear them. It wasn't because they didn't like them, but because they were reluctant to wear them.

Zhou Yue supported his waist and panted, looking at the hill below. Alas, the road ahead is really long and difficult!

When the team in front was about to reach the last mountain, Zhou Yue opened the mall panel.

What she bought were not picked oranges. If a large pile of oranges suddenly appeared on the ground in this desolate mountain wilderness.

This is simply unreasonable.

She looked around the mall and found that there were many different varieties of orange trees, and the fruits they produced were also different.

There are specially cultivated high-quality orange trees, the fruits they produce are so big that you can’t hold them in one hand, they are very juicy and sweet.

There are also wild orange trees, which are very different from domestic trees, with densely packed thorns on them.

The fruits are small, of poor quality and sour in taste, but they are rich in vitamin C and much cheaper than other fruit trees.

And what Zhou Yue needed was the wild orange tree.

Imagine if there were mountains and fields full of orange trees, all of them big and sweet.

The soldiers would think that the fruits were specially grown by farmers and would definitely not pick any of them.

She bought 726 wild orange trees from the mall, all of which were covered with golden fruits.

The total output of these more than 700 orange trees should be close to 60,000 kilograms.

These oranges are relatively small, with about six or seven per pound.

"Wow! Oranges! So many oranges!"

"I was just saying I was so thirsty! I didn't expect there were wild oranges on this mountain!"

The reason why the soldiers thought these were wild oranges was because this place was too remote.

Looking around, there are mountains one after another, and there is not a single house within a radius of dozens of miles.

The troops walking in the front were the first to discover the wild orange trees on the hillside. Looking at the tempting golden oranges, they couldn't help swallowing their saliva.

Some soldiers couldn't help it and wanted to pick some to quench their thirst, but were stopped by the instructor.

"I see there are a lot of wild orange trees on this mountain. Let's find a place to rest and put down our bags before we go."

When the entire army stopped and put down their bags to rest, the soldiers discovered that there were too many wild orange trees on this mountain!

I originally thought there wouldn't be many trees, but it turns out they are everywhere in the mountains and forests. Every few steps you walk you'll come across a wild orange tree with fruit hanging from it.

Each camp sent some soldiers to pick wild oranges, and Zhou Yue and his companions from the kitchen team also went there carrying baskets on their backs.

My younger brother Zhou Xing was carrying a backpack and walking briskly. You could tell he was looking forward to it. He hadn't eaten fruit for a long time.

Zhao Dashan came to the tree, picked the biggest orange and put it in Zhou Xing's hand.

"Xingxing, try one first."

Zhou Xing, with a look of joy on his face, put the peeled orange into his mouth. As soon as he took a bite, his expression changed and even his facial features shrank together.

"Hiss! This wild orange is so sour!"

The taste was so sour that he felt his teeth chattering. The sour taste made him lose interest in the orange in his hand.

But he didn't waste it. He endured the sourness and ate the whole orange.

Zhou Yue also tasted a slice and was shocked by the sourness. This was the sourest orange she had ever eaten, no doubt about it!

Zhao Dashan also ate a clove and his eyes narrowed because of the sourness.

"This stuff is too sour. Let's not pick too much, otherwise it will be a waste if the soldiers can't eat it."

Zhou Yue's heart skipped a beat and a sense of frustration rose in her heart.

After Zhou Yue returned to the camp, he found that not only their camp had picked less, but the situation in other camps was the same.

I probably gave one to each person. Some people who like sour food couldn't stand it after eating two or three.

Zhou Yue calculated silently in her mind, according to this, these 8 people would consume at most kilograms, and there would be to kilograms hanging on the trees!!!

If it were before, people might have picked them and taken them with them to eat on the road.

But now everyone's load capacity has almost reached its limit, and these sour oranges should be abandoned.

How can this be done!

These were all bought with her points, and they are excellent products for supplementing vitamin C!

If everyone really stops picking the sour oranges from the trees, not only will the soldiers not be able to replenish enough vitamin C, but the more than 100,000 points spent on buying wild orange trees will also be wasted!

She felt a little irritated for no reason. Alas!

Zhou Yue's mood hit rock bottom. While boiling water and cooking, she was thinking about whether there was any way to remedy the situation.

Suddenly, a light bulb went off in her head and she came up with a brilliant idea!
