In a chaotic world of infrastructure development, a woman's path to survival after being reborn

Lu Zheng's words left Mo Nan speechless. If he were to remain humble at this point, it would not be a sign of intelligence but rather a sign of foolishness.

"How can you be sure we'll agree to your request? After all, whether this can be done successfully is still unknown!" Mo Nan said bluntly.

Lu Zheng naturally knew Mo Nan's concerns, so he said, "The truth will be revealed soon. All I need now is your word, sir. Are you willing to give me a chance?"

Lu Zheng's directness silenced the atmosphere, and everyone present turned their attention to Mo Nan, eager to hear his answer.

Ignoring the gazes falling upon him, Mo Nan was indeed considering the feasibility of the idea. He recalled the general's instructions to him before he left the city, and his mind suddenly became clear.

Having made up his mind, Mo Nan said to Lu Zheng, "I hope you won't disappoint us."

……

Time passed quickly, and the outside world seemed calm, but anyone in the know understood the turbulent undercurrents beneath.

Zhao Zexuan was handling official business as usual when he saw Wang Zong rushing over. He frowned and asked, "What happened?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zong immediately handed the letter he had just received to Zhao Zexuan and said, "This is a secret letter that I just received. It was sent by Mo Nan."

While listening to Wang Zong's words, Zhao Zexuan opened the letters in his hand, reading them quickly. After reading the contents of the letters, he said, "Mo Nan did a good job."

Wang Zong wasn't surprised that Zhao Zexuan would say that, but he shared the same doubt as Mo Nan: whether Lu Zheng and his group were trustworthy, and what if there was a trap?

After thinking for a long time, Wang Zong finally voiced his concerns, saying, "General, is that person trustworthy? What if there's a trap involved? Wouldn't we fall into it?"

Zhao Zexuan was not surprised that Wang Zong had such doubts. He then said, "If you trust someone, don't use them; if you don't trust someone, don't use them. Why not take a gamble? Besides, do you think we have no way out?"

These words reminded Wang Zong that they would no longer stand idly by and let others bully them. If anyone dared to lay a hand on them, they would retaliate a thousandfold.

Since Zhao Zexuan had already made his decision, he wouldn't delay any longer. He then said to Wang Zong, "Reply to Mo Nan and tell him to follow his original plan. As long as the ultimate goal is achieved, then it's the right thing to do."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zong nodded in agreement, and then asked the most crucial question: "General, if what that man said is true, then we must prepare food as soon as possible, as there is not much food left in the warehouse."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zexuan understood the situation. He wrote a letter home on a piece of paper, put it in the mailbox, and ordered a soldier to send it back as quickly as possible.

While Zhao Zexuan was writing the letter, Wang Zong waited by his side. Only after seeing the soldiers take the envelope away did he speak up and say, "As long as the food arrives, this battle should be over soon."

Food is the most important thing for people. No matter what we do, we can't do without food. Fortunately, their support is reliable.

A few days passed quickly, and in Lingcheng, Su Li finally received Zhao Zexuan's letter.

After reading Zhao Zexuan's letter, Su Li hesitated for only a moment before having someone invite Aunt Wang and the others over to take stock of the warehouse's inventory. She needed to know the overall inventory situation in order to decide the amount of grain to send to the front lines.

This is a do-or-die battle, and the outcome is extremely important for Lingcheng. She must be extremely cautious.
