Where there is one there are two, and when there are two there are three.

Ning Ke received video messages for help one after another, either from friends or other people pulling her.

They all asked her to help with translation, and slowly, the news of the extremely mutant beast gaining intelligence spread.

And the news of a two-legged beast among humans who understood animal language also spread among the extremely mutant beasts.

Ning Ke didn't know whether this phenomenon was good or bad, and the senior leaders were also confused and had no idea what was going on.

The world is heading in a strange direction.

……

As the cold season was approaching, Ning Ke received a notice asking her to go to the base to collect equipment.

When the base is being built, cold-resistant fortifications are given priority.

Due to limited construction time, the living area is a bit simple, but there is no problem with insulation and safety.

This time, a collective heating design was adopted. Pipes were reserved during construction, and the army has collected and reused the equipment and pipes.

If you want to reduce the burden of points, you can choose to live in a public dormitory area.

Those who can afford it pay for base heating out of their own pockets.

The most commendable thing is the collection and purchase of thermal clothing.

The base stipulates that each person can receive one set for free, and there is also an opportunity to purchase one more set.

Because of the special material and wear resistance, one set is actually enough to get through the entire cold season.

Ning Ke was not worried about the fuel reserves for the winter because there was still coal and firewood in the space.

Walking on the streets of the base, everyone was in a hurry, busy moving and buying winter supplies.

For those who have skills, now is the time to make a fortune.

"Ms. Ning, you are here. Here are your thermal clothes and the solar heating sheets you ordered." After greeting you, the clerk hurriedly delivered the prepared items to the counter.

"Thank you." After earning points, Ning Ke stepped forward and put the things into the space.

He pointed to a group of people sitting in a group in the distance and asked what they were doing.

The clerk looked in the direction of the finger and an expression of envy flashed across his face.

"He's a lord who sells charcoal. I heard his charcoal is particularly durable and is said to be made from special wood."

"How about the price?" Ning Ke was a little tempted. There was not much charcoal left in the space.

"The price is not cheap. You see, we are bargaining. However, the lord is also stubborn and refuses to lower the price. He says the cost is high and cannot be reduced." The clerk explained.

Ning Ke nodded after hearing this and gave the clerk a big peach. "These are from our own peach tree. Want to try some?"

The clerk hurriedly reached out to take it, said thank you with a chuckle, turned around and went back to the counter to do other things without disturbing him anymore.

Ning Ke walked over with Lan Lan.

"Miss Ning is here."

"Hello, Miss Ning..."

The people gathered together turned around and saw Ning Ke and Lan Lan, and greeted her politely.

"Hello everyone, I heard there are good charcoal for sale here, so I came here to join in the fun." Ning Ke smiled and walked in with Lan Lan.

Everyone naturally made room for them and didn't dare to squeeze in next to them.

The stall owner stood up from his chair and nodded and greeted Ning Ke.

"How much charcoal do you have? Is that all?" Ning Ke asked, looking at the wooden boxes behind him.

"What I have here is just a sample. The bulk of the charcoal is stored in a rented warehouse. The charcoal there is of the same quality as here. It's all packed in simple wooden boxes, making it easy to transport."

"Take me to have a look?" Ning Ke was not used to having so many people around her. Since she had decided to buy it anyway, she decided to go to the warehouse to have a look.

The stall owner happily called his assistant to look after the stall, and he stood up and walked out with Ning Ke.

Ning Ke didn't expect them to be so generous. There was quite a lot of charcoal in the warehouse.

"There are so many, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to sell them?"

The stall owner chuckled and said confidently:

"When the weather gets colder, we won't have to worry about not being able to sell it."

This was the truth. Ning Ke nodded and said, "Then I'll take one-third of the charcoal here. You draw the dividing line, count the quantity, and settle the bill."

Huh? The stall owner was a little stunned. One third? That's not just three or two pounds.

"Are you sure?"

Ning Ke smiled and nodded, "Sure."

The stall owner jumped for joy and said, "Okay, please wait a moment."

Jinda was shocked when he heard his cousin say that a big customer had bought one-third of their charcoal stock.

I followed my cousin out and wanted to get to know this big guy.

The tall figure looked familiar from a distance.

When Ning Ke turned around, he opened his eyes wide in surprise.

"Ms. Ning? Oh, it was you who bought so much charcoal?" Jin Da ran over happily.

"Lord Gold? What a coincidence, this is your stall?"

Ning Ke was also quite surprised. The world is big if you say it is big, but it is also small if you say it is small.

In the end, because they knew each other, Ning Ke enjoyed a 20% discount.

Jinda also told her about the leopard, and overall they got along well.

It is also because of its protection that they can enter the forest to collect wood for charcoal making.

As for the little cub, Jinda happily showed Ning Ke various cute photos of the little guy.

It can be seen that he likes this little cub very much. Since he can become a lord, he must be extraordinary.

Ning Ke didn't beat around the bush and told him to be careful about how he interacted with them, as these mutant beasts were very sensitive.

"Thank you for reminding me, Miss Ning. I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid."

Jinda didn't expect Ning Ke to be so straightforward and make a promise straight away.

Ning Ke reminded him because she saw that he gave a good impression.

Seeing that he was also an insightful person, he said goodbye and left without saying anything more.

"This Miss Ning is really amazing. My skin goes tight when she looks at me."

Jinda looked at his cousin with amusement, "I think she's pretty good. She has such a powerful companion ability, but she's neither arrogant nor impatient, and her personality is also straightforward. She really deserves to be the number one person in Sheshan Base."

"Brother, be careful about Miss Ning's matter. Don't mention it to anyone else. Others are their own. I only care about ourselves. I don't want to hear that her companion ability came from us."

The stall owner, Jinda's cousin, nodded and said, "You can trust my words."

Jinda nodded and smiled as he looked at the direction Ning Ke and Lanlan left. Some things are safer the fewer people know about them.

……

After leaving the warehouse, Ning Ke took Lan Lan to Uncle Cui.

There are spicy frog legs reserved for him in the space.

On the way, they met Li Feng and the logistics director who were in a hurry. As soon as they saw Ning Ke, they smiled.

"Hey, Miss Ning, do you already know?"

The logistics minister's face was so smiling that it turned into a flower, but Ning Ke was confused by his laughter.

"what do you know?"

Li Feng turned to look at her in surprise, "You don't know?"

Ning Ke: ...Is this a tongue twister?

Seeing that Ning Ke really didn't know, the two looked at each other. This was a bit strange. What big move was the base commander planning?

"The base commander is getting married."

"What?" Ning Ke stopped in surprise.

"Haha, the old virgin is going to be deflowered... Ouch!" The logistics minister staggered after being slapped.

Li Feng looked at the old man with a frown on his face.

Ning Ke: ...Is this something I can listen to?
