Chapter 355: Race Against Time (2)
“……。 Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Hearing Nangong Hai's words, Nangong Xue looked at Nangong Hai blankly, nodded slightly, and said, "Well...... what you said is quite reasonable...... So do it....... ”
As soon as Nangong Xue's words fell, Dong Zhizhong nodded slightly and said: "Okay, don't say so much now, let's hurry up, you two go to the back kitchen with me, and then you don't talk much, look at my eyes, you know?" ”
"Okay......." Nangong Xue and Nangong Hai nodded in unison. As soon as he arrived in the back kitchen, several cooks saw that Dong Zhizhong was coming, so they hurriedly bowed down and said, "Lord Dong is so ......." ”
"Uh-huh......." Dong Zhizhong nodded slightly and replied, and then he glanced at the back kitchen lightly, and after looking at the scarce vegetables and grains around here, he continued, "I haven't restocked this for a few days, right?" Look at this back kitchen, the rice and flour in the tank are so small that they can't sustain the life of the next few days, this is a loss that there is no place to stay, if there are a few more people who live in the store, then this little food is probably not enough for a day, right? ”
"Uh-huh......." The cook in the back kitchen nodded lightly and replied, "Yes, since it has become so difficult to get out of the city, the small ones who want to transport goods back from outside the city have been blocked again and again...... not only the shortage of rice and flour grain, but also the number of vegetables and fruits is decreasing day by day, if it weren't for the small storage of this small jar of pickles to maintain the basic life, then there is really no rice and flour food to eat, and there will be no vegetables to eat......." So the little one is still thinking about whether he wants to discuss this matter with the adults...... ”
"Uh-huh......." After listening to the cook's report, Dong Zhizhong nodded lightly and replied, "This official is also here for this matter...... By the way, did you just say that the transportation of goods outside the city has been blocked again and again and cannot be sent in for supplies? ”
"Yes...... My lord. The cook replied with a slight bow.
"Well...... then it seems that our people have to go out to get supplies ......." Dong Zhizhong said.
"...... our people go out of the city to get supplies and come back?" The back kitchen couldn't help but be a little shocked when he heard this, and then he subconsciously looked around, looked at the people around him, and then counted his fingers slightly, and said, "My lord...... If the small one is not mistaken, all the people in our post station are counted, but there are really not many people, if a few people go out of the city to get supplies, then the rest of the people will be ...... Some of them are nervous, unless they don't have any accommodation, otherwise they are really busy ....... ”
"Hmm...... The officer knows. Dong Zhizhong replied, "Isn't there just someone to help now......?" ”
"Is someone willing to help us get supplies outside the city......?" The cook looked at Dong Zhizhong in a daze and asked curiously, "My lord...... Is what you're saying true or false? At this time, there will be someone who will not bother to help us get supplies......? Who is so kind......? ”
"Uh-huh......." As he spoke, he introduced the two people behind him to the cook, and said, "These people are the two brothers and sisters behind me......." The two brothers and sisters were going out of the city to incense, and they happened to pass by the place where we got supplies, so after asking for help, the two brothers and sisters were willing to help us get back the supplies by the way, otherwise you also know that we don't have enough manpower now, and it is not appropriate to let anyone take it, so we have to ask their brothers and sisters to help us with this ......, but the two of them actually responded to the matter and said that they were willing to help us ....... I'm going to bring them over and check with you how much supplies you need to get back. Explain it to both of them...... After you have finished explaining, report it to me, and then wait for their brother and sister to send us back the supply ....... ”
"Uh-huh......." The cook nodded slightly and replied, "It's your ......." ”
Then he led the brother and sister to walk around in the back kitchen of less than 30 square meters, and instructed from time to time: "You see that these five jars are for rice, and now there is less than half a jar of rice left, so we need about 700 catties of rice; And here, this is the cabinet for noodles, you see it's all empty, if this cabinet is full, it can put down almost 900 catties of noodles; In addition, there are some vegetables and fruits, we have a cellar in this station, generally all the vegetables and fruits we will put in the cellar, but now the cellar is empty, of course, in addition to a tank of pickles, there is really no fresh vegetables and fruits, these are counted, almost also need two or three cars of supplies. Well...... That's pretty much it, with these supplies, it can be maintained for a long time, at least the staple food can last for nearly a year, vegetables, this time the supply is on, and it can last for almost half a year, you both understand, right? ”
"Well...... that's pretty much clear." Nangong Hai nodded lightly and replied, "According to what you said, I will send you seven hundred catties of rice, nine hundred catties of noodles, and three truckloads of vegetables and fruits from the supply station outside the city, right?" ”
"Uh-huh....... Right....... The cook nodded again and again, "That's all it can last for a long time......." You two ....... ”
As he spoke, the back kitchen looked at Nangong Hai, expecting him to escort the supplies back in full. Nangong Hai saw that the cook was full of expectations for himself, so he nodded lightly and replied, "Hmm...... Okay, I've memorized all of them, don't worry, if nothing happens tonight, I'm sure I'll send back these supplies you need before dark...... and then your post will be able to continue to sustain your post ....... ”
"Oops...... It's great...... When the cook heard that he would be able to send supplies before dark, he said happily, "You have really solved our big problem...... ”
"Where, where, ......." Nangong Hai scratched his head slightly, and replied, "This is all a matter of the way, anyway, if we can get out of the city, it is a matter on the road, and if we can help, we will definitely help, this is all a gesture, there is nothing ......." ”
"Uh-huh....... Okay, I'll register it...... And then I'll leave the rest to you two....... The cook nodded in reply.
"Uh-huh......." Nangong Hai nodded slightly and replied.
After speaking, the cook took down an account book from a cabinet beside him, and then picked up a pen and wrote on it, and after a while, the number of these supplies was recorded, and then he respectfully handed the account book to Dong Zhizhong, and said: "Lord Dong, this is the amount of supplies that need to be supplied this time, please take a look at it and ask you to register ......."
