Chapter 0520 The turning point brought by Jiang Yue
Jiang Yue breathed a sigh of relief after finalizing Xiaoyi's whereabouts.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Xiaoyi was raised by Jiang Yue since he was a child. The two families have always been close, and Uncle Ye and Aunt Zhang are indeed very kind to him.
We are not outsiders to begin with. After having Xiaoyi's relationship, Luo Chu and Uncle Ye's family also have an extra layer of ties, and their relationship has become much closer invisibly.
The mentality of chatting with each other has also become much more relaxed, and the topics have become much more in-depth.
Although Uncle Ye said he had some channels, in fact, given his position as a department-level cadre, the channels were not high-end enough, and what he knew was only superficial.
After listening to Jiang Yue telling Luo Chu a lot about the situation in Star City, Uncle Ye and Aunt Zhang's expressions changed again and again.
Obviously, they had no access to what Jiang Yue and the others talked about, and it could be said that they knew nothing about it.
Especially Aunt Zhang, her face turned pale: "Xiao Yue, is the situation outside so bad already?"
"Aunt Zhang, what we are talking about is just the tip of the iceberg. The real situation may be worse, and the general trend is obviously to get worse. This is why I say that you two cannot protect Xiaoyi at home, this day will not last long.
"
"Xiao Yue, you are right. Fortunately you came today, otherwise your Uncle Ye and I would still be in a dream." Aunt Zhang was still frightened.
Uncle Ye is a man, and his expression is relatively restrained: "Xiao Yue, come here often. You, Uncle Ye, need help from you young people to open up your brain."
"Uncle Ye, you are serious."
"By the way, I just saw that you were armed with iron rods and kitchen knives. Nowadays, these weapons are not enough to protect yourself."
Uncle Ye was a little embarrassed: "I don't know enough, and I feel ashamed to say it. I would like to get some more deterrent weapons, but I have no idea where to get them."
This is not to blame Uncle Ye, a cadre of the system in the Sunshine Era, who would think about weapons when they have nothing to do.
In this weird world, the situation has taken a turn for the worse. Even if you have channels to inquire, they won't be able to give it to you.
"I can think of some ways to use weapons. When you send Xiaoyi there another day, I will prepare some for you."
The weapons of the Operations Bureau are all numbered, but the Operations Bureau can often seize some weapons that are not listed in the numbers. There is a lot of room for operation. Even for such a high-ranking official, this authority is still available.
Uncle Ye was overjoyed, today was really full of happy events.
"By the way, Xiao Yue, you said before that you have something to do when you return to Crescent Harbor. Has it been done? If it has been done, how many drinks will we have?"
"If you're not busy drinking, there's nothing to do yet. Speaking of this matter, Uncle Ye may be able to refer to it."
Jiang Yue did not mention that Ding had food, but only said that there was a batch of supplies that needed to be transferred, and that batch of supplies was in Building 4.
The straight-line distance between the building where Jiang Yue is located and the fourth building is probably less than a hundred meters, but if you really want to walk between the two and go around, the distance will be at least one to two hundred meters, which is actually not that far.
But you have to pass a lot of buildings.
When moving supplies, even at night, there will inevitably be movement.
One or two trips may not be a big deal, but if there are too many trips, it will inevitably alert other people and attract the attention of interested people.
Once you are targeted, good things may turn into bad things.
"Xiaoyue, our community has a long time and a high occupancy rate. We pass through so many buildings and it is almost impossible to avoid everyone's eyes and ears. Is the batch of supplies you mentioned a lot?"
"It should be quite a lot, several hundred square meters. It's probably quite full."
Uncle Ye and Aunt Zhang were almost shocked. Several hundred square meters were piled up. How much supplies were there? Who is so wealthy? They bought a duplex building to store supplies? We don't have to worry about hoarding.
"Let's go and take a look first," Luo Chu suggested.
"Brother Xiaoyue, I'm going too." Xiaoyi finally saw Jiang Yue and wanted to stick to Jiang Yue.
"Xiaoyi, don't mess around." Uncle Ye scolded.
"Uncle Ye, it's okay. I don't think many people are paying attention to the outside at this time of night. They all come over to take a look. Just think of it as a place to recognize?"
When Aunt Zhang heard that there were so many supplies, she was also moved: "Lao Ye, what are you doing so fiercely? If your child wants to see it, why don't you go see it? Xiao Yue has already said, don't keep your child at home all the time.
.”
Uncle Ye smiled bitterly: "Should you imprison the child or should I imprison the child? You are the one who complained first."
The group of people tiptoed downstairs, and soon arrived at Ding Youlianggui's address.
This is a garden house. The first and second floors are the same duplex structure. It also has a front and rear yard. Although the yard is only a few dozen square meters, it is considered a high-end house in Star City.
Insert the key, turn it twice, and the door lock opens with a click.
Gently pushing the door open, Jiang Yue signaled everyone not to rush in. After letting the air circulate for a moment, Jiang Yue made sure that there was nothing wrong, then Jiang Yue greeted everyone to come in.
The room is well sealed, and the curtains are all light-blocking. If they are kept open for a long time, it is impossible for the outside to see what is going on inside.
After entering the house, I scanned around with the flashlight several times, and several people were stunned.
It's not that the whole room is full, but it's just that there are some empty places to stay. Except for the living room and dining room, which are relatively empty, there are boxes and boxes of supplies piled everywhere on the cabinets, tables and beds in other rooms.
These materials are also classified very professionally. As expected of the director of the Materials Management Office, the classification of these materials is obviously very professional.
Xiaoyi clicked her tongue and exclaimed: "Brother Xiaoyue, who's home is this? Is it your wealthy friend? Such a good friend."
Xiaoyi had heard before that the supplies here could be moved at will. Such wealthy friends were really annoying, and they even wanted to have as many as possible.
Several people searched the entire area upstairs, downstairs, and in the basement.
Uncle Ye and Aunt Zhang were completely shocked: "Xiao Yue, this is a big deal. The owner of this house must have received the news in advance. He knew that the world would change and prepared in advance, right?"
It was not convenient for Jiang Yue to tell Ding Youliang's identity, so he nodded and said: "He does know some rumors and has prepared a lot of tricks. This is just one of his many dens. Uncle Ye, Aunt Zhang, you can take it as you see it, there is nothing missing."
You can take it.”
Luo Chu said: "Some of these materials are not suitable for long-term storage and will go bad within a year. Look at these rice and white noodles, just stacked here, without special treatment, they will grow moldy in half a year.
Hoarding things like this can only be said to be a waste of things."
The truth is of course this truth, and I believe Ding Youliang would not be ignorant of it.
But to store things in a residence, it is naturally impossible to undergo various technical treatments like a storage warehouse, and the conditions are not met.
"Rice, white flour, etc. are cumbersome and heavy, so move less for now. You can take more important materials, such as medicines, and these military canned foods that can be stored for a long time, which can be moved first. Such things can be stored for ten or twenty years.
It can be used year-round, it doesn’t go bad easily, it’s easy to eat and the feeling of fullness is not bad…”
If the five of them moved it with their bare hands, even if they moved it overnight, they wouldn't be able to move even one-tenth of the things. It was too much.
We can only move some selectively for the time being.
Jiang Yue whispered the password to the safe in the master bedroom to Luo Chu, and while Jiang Yue and Uncle Ye were discussing how to move it, Luo Chu took the evidence Ding Youliang said.
"Xiao Yue, I have an idea, do you think it's acceptable?"
"You see, the basement of this house is connected to the garage. Let's go from the underground parking lot. There will definitely be no one in the underground parking lot at night. We can even transport it by car to the downstairs of our unit, and then move it one by one.
It's a pity that the elevator is not working now. If the elevator were working, we could empty this place in two nights."
"Elevators can generate electricity, and it is feasible to supply power to a specific elevator."
"This way, you don't have to worry about disturbing anyone except the people in your own unit. It would be safer if you put it in the middle of the night, when everyone is asleep."
Uncle Ye said: "Some time ago, the community did some registration. I am the building manager of this unit. There are only seven or eight stable residents in our unit now. These people have been rare recently, and I estimate that there will only be fewer and fewer now."
"Tonight we will move some parts manually. Uncle Ye, can you think of a way to solve the problem of elevator power supply?"
"This is no problem. I can do it. It will be done tomorrow."
"A car can't move many things at one time. If only I could get a small truck..."
"Let me think of a solution for this too." You may not be able to solve big problems, but Uncle Ye is still very confident about solving these small things.
"Then it's settled. Let's move some manually and take the underground passage together." Jiang Yue made up his mind.
The biggest advantage of using the underground parking lot is that you can avoid being noticed.
At this stage, the property management of the community has basically come to a standstill, and almost all the security guards have quit their jobs and gone home to hide. There is no telling whether they are alive or not.
Jiang Yue was cautious and walked back and forth between the two places several times to make sure no one was hiding in the underground parking lot, and then he called on everyone to take action.
There was no small truck for the time being, so an SUV owned by Uncle Ye's family could help. It transported about a thousand kilograms of supplies at a time, and it took five trips and all the supplies were piled at the entrance of the underground passage corresponding to Jiang Yue's unit.
superior.
Then, like ants moving, they carried it upstairs again and again.
With the advent of a strange era, even the most despicable of non-awakened people have actually improved their physical functions. What's more, except for Xiaoyi and Jiang Yue, the other three are not old and weak, but in the prime of life.
Jiang Yue is undoubtedly the best at lifting. He can carry two to three hundred kilograms at a time as if for fun, and he can move as fast as flying. That is to say, he is limited by having only two hands and can only carry so much at one time. Otherwise, if the weight is doubled, Jiang Yue will not be able to carry it at all.
question.
The second most capable person was actually not Luo Chu, but Xiao Yi.
The little girl looked delicate and soft, but she couldn't help but wanted to prove that she was very capable in front of Jiang Yue. She was able to lift two hundred kilograms at a time. Although she was not as light as Jiang Yue, she was not under too much pressure.
As a result, four to five thousand kilograms of supplies were emptied out in just over an hour.
Both Jiang Yue and Xiao Yi still have the strength to fight again, but Jiang Yue is not in a hurry for success. It can be seen that Uncle Ye and Aunt Zhang are still gentle people after all. They have almost reached their limit with such physical work as going up and down the stairs.
Already.
Half of these supplies were stored at Jiang Yue's house, and the other half were moved to Uncle Ye's house.
With this batch of supplies as a base, Uncle Ye and Aunt Zhang are in a significantly better mood. They were in danger of running out of food, at least in the short term. In addition, their daughter has been arranged to join the action bureau, which is very difficult for the family.
There is no doubt that this is hugely good news.
Until Jiang Yue and Luo Chu left, Uncle Ye and Aunt Zhang looked at the piles of supplies as if they were dreaming.
Only Xiaoyi was a little unhappy because brother Xiaoyue left.
Although she also knew that Brother Xiaoyue was doing big things, how great would it be if Brother Xiaoyue could talk to her here and leave the next day?
"Old Ye..." Aunt Zhang called out softly and pursed her lips, signaling Uncle Ye to look at her daughter.
Uncle Ye smiled bitterly. He knew his daughter better than his father. Of course he knew his daughter's thoughts. But he, as a father, could not decide this matter at all.
Aunt Zhang was also worried about gains and losses: "I always knew that Xiaoyue was destined to be a promising kid, but I didn't expect that he would be successful so early, and that his potential would be so great. Lao Ye, we have to send Xiaoyi to get some good training, we can't let him
There is a huge gap between them."
What if the gap is too big and the intended son-in-law runs away?
Aunt Zhang's current positioning of her daughter is basically close to the standard of not marrying anyone other than Jiang Yue.
"You, you, can you not be so obvious? I know you are doing it for your daughter's good, but have you ever thought about it. The child is still young and there will be great variables in the future. If it doesn't work out in the future, where will the child's self-esteem go? We
How can we get along with Xiao Yue? Xiao Yue is a caring child and is very kind to us. We can’t push other people’s children away because of my own thoughts, and we won’t dare to come to our house in the future.”
"What are you talking about? We like him, why are we pushing it out? Xiaoyi also likes him..."
"But what if Xiao Yue doesn't have this intention?"
"He..." Aunt Zhang originally wanted to say how could he look down on our Xiaoyi? But when she thought about it carefully, Xiaoyi was only fourteen years old and her body had not yet stabilized.
How can such an outstanding boy like Xiao Yue lack outstanding girls around him? In terms of good looks, family background,...
After thinking about everything, Aunt Zhang suddenly panicked.
"You, don't worry about that. We will look at this matter in a few years. Even if it doesn't work, Xiaoyue will at least treat our daughter as a biological sister. Xiaoyue will take care of the child, so I can rest assured." Uncle Ye said from
He said from the bottom of his heart, "We should be satisfied. If Xiao Yue hadn't suddenly appeared tonight, we wouldn't have been on tenterhooks every day, and our days would have been miserable. Now we have something to work towards, right?"
Aunt Zhang felt disappointed, but still nodded: "Xiao Yue, this kid, not only looks annoying, but also has a good character, and is very popular. Look at those supplies, people say we can take whatever we like. This
In these days, acquaintances would fall into fits of rage or even fight to death over a mouthful of food. This kid is so generous."
In any case, Jiang Yue's appearance undoubtedly brought a huge turning point in their lives.
"Old Ye, why did Xiao Yue and Director Luo suggest that you go there at night?"
"Don't you understand this? This is to protect us. We are all civil servants with official status. If we are too close to the Action Bureau, we will be easily spotted. People are afraid that the superiors will put some shoes on us, or even target us.
We are at a disadvantage." Uncle Ye's level of knowledge is indeed a step above Aunt Zhang.
