Chapter 72 Transportation
The sun was high in the sky, and the temperature was gradually rising.
Jiang Li wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve; the long hours of physical labor had left her parched.
Qin Yue sat slumped on the ruins, panting heavily, feeling like she was about to give up.
Jiang Li took out a bottle of mineral water from her backpack and gulped down two mouthfuls.
The heat and irritability in my body subsided slightly.
The scavengers nearby couldn't help but swallow hard when they saw Jiang Li's bottled water.
However, their mouths were as dry as parched earth, with not a drop of saliva secreted.
Some people, seeing that Jiang Li was a girl, had shifty eyes and wanted to rush forward to grab the water.
However, considering the soldiers resting nearby during their shift change, he had to abandon the idea.
The two dug through the rubble for almost an hour but still hadn't found the fishing net they were looking for.
Jiang Li patted Qin Yue on the shoulder, "Why don't you rest for a while?"
Qin Yue had exhausted a lot of energy, her whole body ached, and she had reached her limit.
She had no choice but to nod.
I'll rest in the shade for ten minutes, then continue digging.
I refuse to believe I can't find the fishing net.
Qin Yue braced herself against the rubble, her legs feeling as heavy as if they were bound with dozens of kilograms of iron, and she walked with a limp.
Jiang Li looked at Qin Yue, who seemed like she could be blown away by a gust of wind.
He quickly stepped forward, intending to help her up.
suddenly,
Jiang Li felt as if she had kicked something, causing her to lose her balance.
Jiang Li's pupils contracted sharply as she looked at the sharp stone so close to her.
This fall will surely disfigure her completely.
In the nick of time, Jiang Li reacted quickly, grabbing onto something nearby to regain her balance.
Jiang Li staggered a few steps before barely managing to stand still.
Qin Yue was so frightened by this sudden turn of events that she collapsed to the ground.
She scrambled to her feet on all fours and ran to Jiang Li's side as fast as she could.
"Sister Jiang Li, are you alright? You almost scared me to death just now."
Qin Yue could see clearly that there was a sharp stone in front of Jiang Li where she had just fallen, its edge gleaming coldly.
Jiang Li must have been seriously injured after falling.
"fine."
Jiang Li waved her hand to reassure Qin Yue.
She walked back to the spot where she had almost fallen, wanting to see what had gotten into her foot.
A small portion of the black, metallic handle protruded from the ground.
You wouldn't notice it if you weren't paying attention.
Jiang Li pulled the handle, and the outline of a black, rod-shaped object slowly appeared before her eyes.
Qin Yue's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward to work together with Jiang Li.
Soon a complete fishing net was revealed.
Its stick was covered with dense scratches, and the fishing net at the end had a large hole in it.
"Sister Jiang Li, why is this fishing net so short?"
Qin Yue looked at the fishing net, which was only fifty centimeters long, with a bitter expression.
They finally found a fishing net, but it turned out to be the wrong length.
Jiang Li examined the fishing net, then reached out and felt around for it before gently twisting it.
The fishing net gradually grew longer.
This is scalable.
Jiang Li and Qin Yue took the fishing net and went to the location of the bakery they had visited before.
They found the hole they had dug earlier.
The scavengers in the area mainly dig through the ruins of the restaurant and don't think much of this bakery.
Jiang Li pulled open the fishing net, extended it into the hole, and used the end of the net to hook the flour sack.
Qin Yue assisted Jiang Li from the side, her hands tightly gripping the fishing net, her eyes fixed on the flour sacks in the hole.
I got it!
Her heart pounded with excitement.
The weight of twenty pounds pressed down on the fishing net, causing Jiang Li's arm muscles to tense and his hands to tremble involuntarily.
Hold on, and push.
Jiang Li gritted her teeth, with only one thought in her mind: to get the flour up there.
With their combined efforts, they finally managed to get a bag of flour upstairs.
Jiang Li put the fishing net aside and carefully checked the flour for any damage or water ingress.
After all that effort, what if the flour is inedible?
Jiang Li felt she had been wronged to death.
They checked carefully from front to back, leaving no corner unchecked.
My worries were relieved; the flour packaging was intact, without any damage, so it was safe to eat.
Only now another problem has arisen.
Jiang Li looked at the heavy flour; how to transport it had become a major problem.
The two of them could barely carry the bag.
However, there were ten bags of flour below the cave entrance, which they certainly couldn't carry away on their own.
Seeing that Jiang Li did not move, Qin Yue asked:
"Sister Jiang Li, what's wrong?"
Jiang Li looked up at Qin Yue.
“I’m thinking about how to get rid of all this flour. There’s too much and it’s too heavy. We simply can’t take it back.”
If Qin Yue weren't here, Jiang Li could easily store the items in her spatial storage.
There is absolutely no need to consider transportation issues.
Qin Yue was taken aback when she heard the question, but then she realized that the two of them definitely couldn't carry so many bags of flour on their own.
Even one bag would probably be enough to make a living.
"How about we hand over half to the authorities and have them help us with the transportation?"
Jiang Li felt this was the safest method.
Qin Yue pondered for a moment and felt that Jiang Li was quite right.
Zhou Tian, who had just finished a rescue operation and was about to rest, received a call from Jiang Li.
I hope he can come to the ruins of the food street behind the hospital.
Upon receiving Jiang Li's message, Zhou Tian immediately replied "Received".
He owed Ye Jingmo and Jiang Li a favor, and he had to make this trip.
Jiang Li did not tell him the reason for asking him to go in the communication.
For safety reasons, Zhou Tian asked two soldiers to accompany him.
Upon seeing Jiang Li's figure amidst the ruins, Zhou Tian instructed the soldiers beside him to wait for him there.
Is there anything I can help you with?
Zhou Tian got straight to the point.
"We found ten bags of flour weighing twenty kilograms each. The packaging was intact, but transportation is a problem."
We wanted to donate five bags of flour to the government, but we need your help transporting the remaining five bags.
Jiang Li also directly expressed her thoughts.
Upon hearing about twenty jin of flour, Zhou Tian's eyes widened.
"no problem."
He agreed to Jiang Li's conditions without hesitation.
Official food supplies are currently scarce, and rescue soldiers are wearing tight belts while conducting rescue operations.
With these bags of flour, they could have a hearty meal.
"However, we only managed to get one bag; the other nine bags are below the cave entrance."
Jiang Li pointed to the hole they had dug.
Zhou Tian immediately waved for the two soldiers to come up.
The two soldiers couldn't help but swallow hard when they saw the bag of white flour.
Steamed buns, twisted rolls, bread, noodles... all sorts of delicious foods that can be made from flour flashed through their minds.
"Fish up the flour from the bottom. These two ladies will donate half of it to us, and take the rest with them."
Upon hearing that Jiang Li had decided to donate half of the flour, the two soldiers looked at them with great respect.
They had just glanced into the cave entrance and saw about ten bags of flour.
That's no small amount.
With the soldiers' help, the remaining flour was easily obtained.
