The next morning, Iger got up very early. He found Lily and directly begged her to call him again.
Iger was a little worried that yesterday's broadcast was not received by the Ross Town command center. He expected that if no one came by noon, he would make another trip there.
Waiting and wasting time like this is never an option.
In order to relieve his anxiety while waiting anxiously, Iger simply ran to watch Vance work on the workpiece. As a result, Vance hated being watched while he was doing things, so he kicked him out directly.
It's not that Iger can't take time off, he can't take time off when he has something on his mind. This is also a habit he has been trained since he was a child.
Enduring hardship comes first, enjoying comes second; completing learning tasks comes first, having fun comes last.
Feeling restless, Ige walked around in Jixi Town. He even visited the Yuangunguan Production Greenhouse to check on the production situation.
York excitedly said to Egger, after more than half a year of accumulation, a lot of raw materials have been piled up, and the output this year will definitely not be less.
Iger took a look and saw that in the big pit, countless round and round pieces of hair were already enjoying life in it. Given time, a few kilograms a day would be no problem.
At this moment, Egg heard a broadcast from the watchtower: "For the convoy in front, you can move forward."
When Ige was thinking about what kind of convoy it was, the radio shouted again: "Call Ige, has the reclamation regiment's convoy entered the city?"
Oh, it turned out to be my own convoy.
Just now, when the truck with two people in it had just reached the place where the last exchange of fire took place, the driver suddenly braked and stopped the vehicle.
Looking at the scrapped cars that had not been disposed of, a group of people who were about to curse suddenly realized that they had entered the attack range of Jixi Town.
Randy, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the first car, jumped out of the car and waved his hands, hoping that the watchtower would not suddenly shoot without warning.
After a while, the watchtower's loudspeaker sounded, and after receiving permission to move forward, the convoy relaxed and headed towards Jixi Town.
At the gate of Jixi Town, some nervous group members saw their leader.
"You guys wait here for a moment." Egg said to everyone, and then he went to the workshop to find Vance.
After hearing the convoy coming, Vance slowly turned off the machine tool, then turned to Iger and said, "Boy, do you have a car?"
Iger immediately replied: "There is a car."
When Vance heard this, he shook his head and said, "That's not possible. The road over there is not very good. You have to find a car with a higher ground. I'll go to Sister Maria to borrow a car."
Now all the vehicles are under the unified management of Sister Maria, and the car keys are in her hand.
When Iger heard this, he immediately said to Vance: "Uncle Vance, I'll take care of this little thing." After saying that, Iger ran out quickly.
Egger ran very fast, his heart was sour, and he held back the tears.
It had been a long time since I had a good conversation with Vance. Only then did Iger realize that Vance was very old.
I remember that when I first met Vance, Vance gave Egger a sense of strength and power. However, now, Vance's movements are far less agile than before. Everyone can see that Vance is now an old man.
In fact, not only Vance, Father Locke, and even Andy, these people who once looked similar to young people and even more energetic, all aged very quickly after the outbreak of the blood epidemic. Egger was not even sure whether this was
Because living conditions have become worse, or because the blood epidemic is constantly eroding people's bodies.
After asking for the car keys, Egger successfully found a black off-road vehicle. When he drove to Vance's workshop, Vance said to Egger: "Here, bring that beer."
"Uncle Vance, you can't drink while driving." Iger said to Vance.
Vance glared at Egg, okay, anyway, there are no police investigating this now.
Suddenly, Iger remembered a very important thing. He asked Vance: "Uncle Vance, how long does it take to get from the lumberyard to the gospel community?"
Vance said to Iger: "It's not far, half an hour one way. But if you have to carry wood, you won't be able to make it back at noon."
really.
When Egger thought of this, he quickly put a piece of beer into the trunk of the off-road vehicle, and then ran quickly towards the gate of Jixi Town.
"Have you brought anything to eat?" Iger stood on the road, panting and shouting to the people sitting in the truck.
After hearing Egger's question, everyone looked at each other in confusion. Why should they bring food?
Egger slapped his forehead.
Either Erica forgot, or they didn't know what they were going to do here, so they didn't think of bringing lunch food.
"Please wait a little longer." After Iger counted the heads, he rushed to the Morgan Building to ask Sister Maria for credit.
Although the evangelical team needs to support the reclamation team, it is not the kind of support that is like a green onion today and a cabbage tomorrow.
Support is provided in batches.
Therefore, today’s lunch, the reclamation team needs to prepare it themselves.
The evangelical team lent Aige a large loan to cover additional expenses. If they really can't repay it in the future, they can apply for a one-time debt reduction.
After Iger found Sister Maria, Sister Maria took out a thick notebook with a handwritten detailed product catalogue, which was the foreign trade price set by Andy.
After Iger read it again, he couldn't help but give Andy a like.
This price, tsk tsk tsk, is simply palace jade liquor, black, really damn black.
After Iger looked around, he suddenly thought, why would it be better to feed those calves ready-made products? It would be better to buy some materials and make them ourselves. Sure enough, Iger skipped the ready-to-eat products, and he saw that the prices of raw materials were much cheaper.
Iger bought a bag of flour and tableware for more than ten people on credit. Thinking of the hard physical labor, he reluctantly bought a large piece of pickled venison produced by the gospel team.
Finally, Iger bought two more cans of beef, which were given to Vance.
After Sister Maria calculated the price, she wrote it down for Iger in her notebook and needed his signature for confirmation.
Seeing that number, Egger's heart hurt hard again.
After learning from the painful experience, Iger took out his mobile phone and took pictures of the product exchange catalog from beginning to end. He planned to ask Sandora to copy it over again when he went back, and he would price it the same way in the future!
After Iger moved all the things to the off-road vehicle, he ran to the kitchen on the second floor, borrowed a large soup pot and a spoon from Catherine, who had a slightly bulging belly, and complimented Catherine casually.
Finally, everything was ready. Egger sat in the passenger seat of the off-road vehicle. After Vance drove out of Qixi Town, Egger rolled down the window and asked the convoy behind to follow him.
The convoy walked along the winding road towards the gospel community. Sitting on the off-road vehicle, Iger vaguely felt that he had forgotten something.
Vance's lumber camp is just south of Gospel Community. It is in the same direction as before when going into the mountains for hunting, but the branch road is different.
After passing the Gospel Community, there is no cement road. The original dirt road was quickly taken over by wild plants after it was no longer driven by vehicles. Many green shoots began to sprout on the originally barren driveway.
The road conditions here were not as bad as expected, and soon we arrived at a flat land in a valley.
"Wow, such a big lumberyard." It was Egger's first time to visit Vance's lumberyard. As Vance said, the wood here was piled up like a mountain.
Various types of wood vary in size and type and are stacked very neatly.
Egg saw the planks, which were stacked as high as the hill.
"How many workers are there here?" Iger admired and turned to ask Vance.
Vance said proudly: "It's just me."
"Only one person?" Egger didn't expect that Vance could manage such a large lumberyard by himself.
No wonder Vance's income is so high, he's a werewolf.
Egg directed the people in the internal support team: "Come on, start moving from here, load one car after another, 1/3 with logs, and 2/3 with wooden boards."
As soon as Egger finished his arrogant command, Lar turned his head to him in dissatisfaction and cheered for a while.
After Iger was stunned for a moment, he asked Vance next to him: "What is he talking about?"
"He told you to stop fooling around." Vance rolled his eyes at Iger and walked towards his cabin.
Iger, who didn't feel embarrassed at all, followed Vance into the cabin.
Although everything was neatly arranged inside the cabin, there was already a thick layer of dust, and it was impossible to sit down without cleaning it.
Vance sat down on the sofa without a care. As long as he wasn't afraid of getting dirty, there was no problem that he wouldn't be able to stay.
Egg walked around the cabin for a while. Vance seemed to be living a pretty good life. The cabin had a living room, a bedroom, a kitchen, and a tool room. Except for the smaller area, it was no different from an ordinary house.
Iger found a set of dusty tableware in the kitchen. He rolled up his sleeves, asked Vance about the source of water, and then walked towards a hand-operated water well on the side of the house.
It's okay to do heavy work like moving lumber, but it doesn't seem too good to be idle, so why not cook lunch for everyone.
After cleaning the tableware, while Egger was working on the bone-in marinated meat with a sharp knife, he only heard the sound of a car horn outside.
Iger turned around and saw that it was Joanna.
Iger slapped his forehead and forgot about Joanna.
Just when Iger was thinking about how to explain to Joanna, Joanna waved to Iger and shouted loudly: "Eger, hurry up! Come here quickly! Something happened to the field team!"
