Chapter 199 Stealing Water

As the car stopped, Li Wen jumped out of the passenger seat.

"You're back!" Sun Lianying looked at Li Wen who was smiling and asked with a smile.

“I pulled them all back, and also pulled two more bags, a total of 62 bags.

My friend is very satisfied with the tea. He gave me an extra bag of cornmeal, which you can take care of when the time comes. The other bag of flour is my reward, and I will help you replace it with rice.

By the way, Uncle Sun, why are you alone, where are Manager Wang and the others?" Li Wen looked around and asked in confusion.

"It's a bit late. Manager Wang and the others have already gone home. Let's take a look tomorrow. Don't worry about the things being in the warehouse." Sun Lianying climbed into the carriage, opened a bag, checked it, and nodded with satisfaction.

In fact, Manager Wang and others left early not because they didn't want to wait for food, but because they took advantage of the evening to get some tea.

"This small warehouse is specially reserved for us. Xiaowen, just ask Master Zhang to drive the car directly in and lock the door." Sun Lianying finished checking the food and threw the key to Li Wen.

The night passed in the blink of an eye. Li Wen and Sun Lianying had breakfast at the reception desk of the Jinzhou Department Store branch.

Breakfast was pretty good. It was a local specialty, noodles with vegetable tofu. Each person had a big bowl of spicy red oil noodles and a big bowl of vegetable tofu. It was very enjoyable.

The breakfast treatment is already very high. Let’s not talk about the dough made of rice noodles. Soybeans are a strategic item in this era, and soy products are very precious.

The two had a delicious meal, and when they arrived at the warehouse, they found Manager Wang and others already waiting in the yard.

"Manager Wang, I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long." Sun Lianying walked up quickly.

"We have just arrived." Manager Wang smiled and waved his hand.

"The food was brought back not long after you left last night. Xiaowen quickly opened the warehouse and let Manager Wang take a look at the things."

Sun Lianying greeted Li Wen and opened the door quickly.

This time there is no need for Li Wen to unload the goods himself. Jinzhou Department Store has dedicated warehouse loading and unloading personnel.

Looking at the food in most of the carriages, Manager Wang quickly called to the workers in the warehouse to unload the goods.

"This grain is really good! Every bag is of the same thickness. What kind of machine can grind such flour?" Manager Wang checked five or six bags in a row before stopping. He turned a handful of flour in his hand.

He said with a look of joy.

"Manager Wang, there are a total of 62 bags of flour, 41 bags of cornmeal, and 21 bags of flour here, totaling 6,200 kilograms.

The quality of the tea last night was good, and most of it was second-grade. I was very satisfied with it, and the extra bag of cornmeal was given to you.

The remaining bag of flour belongs to us alone, please help us replace it with rice." Sun Lianying pointed at the grain pile and said with a smile.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Sun. It's no problem to change the rice. You can just move one to our warehouse when you leave. It's all this year's new rice." Manager Wang held Sun Lianying's hands in surprise.

"Mr. Wang has finished weighing, the total is 6,213 kilograms." At this time, the warehouse manager on the side came over and reported.

"Put 22 bags of cornmeal and 10 bags of flour into the warehouse. The others belong to other brother units. They are temporarily stored in the small warehouse and will be taken away in the afternoon." Manager Wang ordered the warehouse manager on the side.

The prices have already been set, cornmeal is 10 cents, flour is 18 cents, and tea is priced at 40 cents according to the secondary market price.

This price was acceptable to Li Wen. After all, no tickets were required. It just gave the department store a slight advantage, and everything was calculated according to the second-level price.

After checking the food, everyone returned to the conference room.

"Brother Sun, all the remaining tea leaves have been finished.

Because you don’t need particularly good quality here, I contacted some brigade collectives and they have their own large-leaf tea cakes.

I heard that I could exchange it with grain, and the price they gave me was very fair, a pound of tea cake only costs 50 cents." Manager Wang said with a smile.

"You can also make tea cakes made from big-leaf tea. We members drink them ourselves. They are not exported and are not expensive at fifty cents." Sun Lianying nodded with satisfaction after hearing Manager Wang's quotation.

"Okay, I'll have people arrange the exchange quickly and try to get it done today, but Brother Sun will have to stay for another day." Manager Wang suddenly smiled when he heard that Sun Lianying had no objection to the tea cakes made from Daye Tea.

"Don't worry, I haven't been to Jinzhou for several years, so I can just visit an old friend."

Instead of following Sun Lianying to the office to negotiate the price, Li Wen borrowed a rickshaw from the department store and rode out.

After arriving in this era, Li Wen has not traveled far yet. When he came out this morning, he greeted Sun Lianying and asked him to have a good time.

Li Wen rode his bicycle all the way out of Jinzhou City to the Han River. He found a place near the mountains and forests and took the tricycle in.

I found the main stream area of ​​the Han River along the river and plunged in.

Li Wen's maximum water-retracting range is the distance of his mental power, which is a width of fifty meters.

However, Li Wen did not dare to use full firepower, but let the water flow into the small world. Of course, Li Wen did not dare to close in one place, but shot in another place.

While walking and stopping, sometimes Li Wen would stop to rest, ask locals about areas that are frequently flooded, and then run there to do good deeds.

The flow of the Han River is huge, and there are not many river dams in these days. The rainy season comes from July to September every year, and floods occur frequently. Li Wen does not have any psychological burden to collect the water.

From working in the morning to the afternoon, Li Wen collected a total of 20 million cubic meters of river water for most of the day, which is equivalent to a medium-sized reservoir that has just started.

The average annual runoff of the Han River is close to 60 billion cubic meters, and the runoff in Qin Province is as high as 20 billion cubic meters.

In the past two years, Qinnan has suffered from severe floods. The runoff in Qin Province has exceeded 40 billion cubic meters. Li Wen's 20 million yuan has had no impact on the Han River.

With the influx of large amounts of river water, the water shortage problem in the small world has been temporarily solved. Looking at the rivers and reservoirs flowing in the small world, Li Wen showed a satisfied smile.

However, in order for the small world to completely get rid of the predicament of water shortage, 500 million cubic meters of water resources will be needed. By then, the small world will be self-sufficient.

However, these Li Wen are not too anxious for the time being. With the entry of large amounts of water resources and the growth of crops, the foundation of the small world has been completely solidified.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Wen followed the water and came to a small mountain village.

Outside the village, Li Wen changed his clothes, put the tricycle out, put several hundred kilograms of potatoes and sweet potatoes in the carriage, and then rode the tricycle into the village.

Looking at the mud monkeys climbing up and down the big tree at the entrance of the village, Li Wen stopped the car and walked over with a smile.

"Kids, where is your brigade secretary's home? Can you help me show the way?"

"Are you a bad guy who takes pictures of flowers?" A little boy crawling with dirt all over his body looked at Li Wen warily.

"I am a buyer from a department store in the city, and I came to your village to purchase things today.

Have you seen my tricycle? It's carrying grain. If anyone helps me lead the way, I'll give them a big sweet potato." Li Wen lured him away.

"Really give it to the big sweet potato?" The mud monkeys who climbed up the tree were so excited when they heard that they were eating, that they all slipped down from the tree.

"Really! I can even take you on a tricycle." Li Wen smiled and patted the head of the boldest little guy.

These days, a bicycle is a precious commodity, not to mention a tricycle used for hauling goods. Rural children can chase it for two miles after seeing it.

The oldest of these children is only six years old. If they are older, they will have to help the family with farm work, but they are not qualified to play.

"Let's go, eat sweet potatoes and take a tricycle!"
