Chapter 26: Clues
Xiao Zhang dialed the phone and said his appeal, and the other party informed the battalion commander that he had gone to dinner and asked if there was something urgent.
Xu Jiuyan also heard it, and looked up at the sky in a daze, she was sloppy, and it was a lunch order, which was really unfortunate.
Hurriedly said: "Don't worry, ask him to come out after dinner, I'll wait." ”
Xiao Zhang hung up the phone and looked at Xu Jiuyan and said, "You haven't eaten yet, do you want me to help you bring a meal." ”
"No need, I bring food, we all bring food with us for this job, sometimes we have food in the barren mountains and mountains, there is no fixed time point."
"It's really not easy, you are a little girl who looks white and tender, but she can endure hardships."
"Hehe, it's not as hard as you guys have to suffer."
Xu Jiuyan said and took out the steamed bun and shook it, signaling that she had food. I have to sigh that the people of this era are so simple.
Xiao Zhang looked at Xu Jiuyan's steamed bun and said, "Oh, white noodles, it's delicious." ”
"Well, Xiang, I'm a northerner, and I'm not used to eating rice, so I can only change the rice for noodles, but the noodles here are only good for rich and strong noodles, and I also eat one meal occasionally, I really can't afford to eat it!"
"Also, miscellaneous grains are not easy to change."
"But no, it's really urgent for us northerners."
Xiao Zhang was in the post pavilion, Xu Jiuyan was squatting in the shade behind the post box, and the two occasionally talked to each other.
Xu Jiuyan suddenly remembered something and asked, "Comrade Zhang, are military coupons nationwide?" ”
"Yes."
"That, Comrade Zhang, can I exchange a few with you? I'm going home in a few days, so I'll get a few more to go home with. I'll exchange local food stamps with you, okay? ”
"Ah, I don't have any extra tickets except for food stamps, they have all been exchanged by other comrades-in-arms, and food stamps are useless to you, if you exchange food stamps, I can help you ask, what do you want to exchange?"
"Industrial vouchers, I want to buy a flashlight, you also know that we walk a lot at night in this job, and we are afraid of not having a light at night."
"Indeed, you little girl is really scared, the industrial voucher should be very easy to exchange, let me help you ask."
Xu Jiuyan was happy, smiled and thanked him, took out 30 catties of food stamps and handed them to Xiao Zhang and said, "Thank you so much, change these first, if it is not enough, I will make it up to you when I come to deliver the letter." ”
"Okay, I'll help you redeem it, there are a lot of people in the family area who want to change it, and there is no place to change it."
"Thanks, I can buy a flashlight now, it's a good thing."
Xiao Zhang looked at Xu Jiuyan's expression and smiled, then saw Chen Boting come out and hurriedly saluted.
Xu Jiuyan looked at Xiao Zhang and then turned around, seeing Chen Boting in a military uniform, powerful and handsome, which was really pleasing to the eye.
Xu Jiuyan was busy looking at the handsome guy, his brain was a little stuck, Chen Boting walked in front of him and didn't react, and sighed: "It's so good-looking!" ”
Chen Boting was stunned when he suddenly heard such a sentence, and then smiled and said: "You are good-looking, and the little girl is very cute and white." ”
Xu Jiuyan immediately came back to his senses when he heard this, Nima, this was really inopportune, and he was very embarrassed.
"Ahem, no, I'm that, ahem, I'm looking for you something, go over there and talk about it."
Xu Jiuyan hated to find a crack in the ground to get into, so he quickly changed the topic and pointed to the big tree not far away.
When the two arrived under the big tree, Xu Jiuyan was a little embarrassed by the play just now. His face was slightly red and he said: "That, I don't know if it will be useful to you if I have a piece of information here, there is a small road in the mountain behind Putuo Village that leads directly to the black market trading point of Myanmar Baoguo." ”
Chen Boting looked at Xu Jiuyan's slightly red face and was a little funny, this little girl is quite funny. He thought that she came to him to ask about returning home for the New Year, and after listening to Xu Jiuyan's words, his eyes were as sharp as a torch.
"You said that there is a small road to Burma Baoguo in Putuo Village, and there is a black market trading point?"
"Huh? I know there are black market trading spots, but I don't know if it's the way you know, so I'm going to tell you about it. It's not that I know, I'm a postman, it's a young guide I know, he's a hunter, he's familiar with these roads, I'll tell you when I know. I don't know if it's useful, that, maybe you know, I'm not sure, so I'll talk to you. ”
Xu Jiuyan was very stressed in the face of the serious Chen Boting, his aura was too strong, and Xu Jiuyan was a little flustered unconsciously.
"Your clues are very helpful and very timely, and I will arrange for someone to check them right away. You come with me first. ”
"Ahh
Xu Jiuyan's little daughter-in-law followed Chen Boting into the army, and then was arranged to wait on the side, and after a while, Chen Boting, dressed in local clothes, appeared in front of Xu Jiuyan, followed by several people, and they all took pictures.
"Let's go, I need you to show us the line."
"Ah, okay, I'll take you to Artuda, he knows the way."
Xu Jiuyan led a few people to find Artuda, explained a few words to Artuda, pointed at Chen Boting and them, turned his back and signaled Artuda not to show his stuff with his eyes.
Artuda led Chen Boting and them to set off, while Xu Jiuyan returned to the post office. She wrote an article praising the soldiers of the motherland to the Fucheng Daily, I don't know if it has been drafted, there should be a response today, she has to go and see it.
Chen Boting tried Attuda a lot along the way, but Artuda kept silent and asked how he knew Xu Jiuyan, and Artuida said that he was a life-saving grace and told him about beating the leopard.
Company Commander Wu and a few people had seen Xu Jiuyan picking a stick, and immediately made up the picture in his brain, and said with a smile: "It seems that this female comrade likes to play stuffy sticks very much, is she very skillful, you can ask for advice when you have the opportunity." ”
"Hahahaha, you should let Li Jingxiu's thorn in the head, don't say that they really have a grudge, but the lesbian was beaten by Li Jingxiu."
"Hahahaha, find a chance to talk."
Several people muttered and laughed, and Chen Boting, who listened to it, was curious, he didn't know that looking at the soft Xu Jiuyan was so fearless.
Artuida silently led Chen Boting and them to the Puxi Trail, and as soon as they entered the trail, Company Commander Wu gestured to Chen Boting with his eyes, they didn't know this road.
When the group arrived at the place of the transaction that Artuda said, it was nothing more than a col, but there were traces of human activity all around.
"This is it," said Atuda, "on the road to the south, there is the Tim River in Burma, and along the river is the small ferry port of Tim, and there are boatmen who go by boat, and it will take half an hour to go to the city of Sila." ”
Chen Boting nodded and said, "Thank you for your help, let's go back, do you know what time the black market is traded here?" ”
Company Commander Wu gave a look, and Li Dabao left a few people quietly.
"I don't know, the time is not fixed, we don't come here to exchange food, this is what we encountered when we were hunting."
Chen Boting looked at Artuda's stunned eyes, pondering the authenticity.
"How can you tell someone about this kind of thing, or is it a foreigner?"
"Dong rules, treat your benefactor sincerely, my benefactor is a good person, she is a postman, I will show her the way."
Chen Boting raised his eyebrows, many ethnic groups have their own persistence.
When he returned to the village, Chen Boting told Artuda not to tell others, so he let him go back.
Li Dabao also came back after a while, confirming that what Artuda said was true and the route was completely correct.
Company Commander Wu smiled excitedly and said, "It's considered progress, this time I know why they ran so fast." ”
Chen Boting also smiled slightly and said, "Well, inform Li Jingxiu so that he can act." ”
"Yes! It's really thanks to the lesbians, I didn't expect it to be quite powerful, people's starting point is right, we think we have figured out all the mountains, in fact, there is nothing more familiar than the locals. ”
"Well, after all, it's a place where people have lived for generations, and there are always some back roads."
"Battalion commander, is that Artuda credible?"
"There should be some opportunistic behavior, but I am willing to help us explain that it is not serious, their mountain hunters are indeed difficult, pay more attention in the future, and handle the matter in front of you first."
"Yes!" Company Commander Wu received the order and went to carry it out.
Chen Boting was stunned for a while, the little girl didn't speculate, right? Rubbing his eyebrows, I went to write the information.
Xu Jiuyan arrived at the post office and saw Yao Honghong's eyes red, Sister Zhao was not at work, so she walked to Yao Honghong and asked.
"What's wrong with Sister Yao?"
"Xiao Xu, there is a letter from you today, give. It's okay, it's just not happy. ”
"What's wrong, tell me, I'll enlighten you."
"What are you talking about, hey, who makes people have great skills, people are college students, people have a hard background, our unit is full, and if you want to come in, you must squeeze out one."
Xu Jiuyan chuckled in his heart and said, "Who is she going to squeeze out?" ”
"People said that they were doing guidance work, and they couldn't do the work of a postman, and the director said that they would choose one between me and Sister Zhao."
"The director is still afraid of her? Report her? Why grab someone else's position? ”
"The director is not afraid of her, she is the object who came to our post office today, her posture is high, she is a red armband, my uncle said that he can't afford to provoke her."
Yao Honghong burst into tears as she spoke, Zhao Weihong's position was also quite hard, and if she really wanted to squeeze it out, it was estimated that Yao Honghong was gone.
Xu Jiuyan narrowed his eyes, how can he live if he wants to let a person take root here?
Made, is it true that you forced your mother to play with you?
After thinking about it, she really can't make a move, she has no foundation and has to admit it, plus it's about to be the New Year, it's really hard to make a move now, and she has to wait for the New Year to see the signs.
Turning her eyebrows again, she looked at Yao Honghong and thought in her heart, whose interests are damaged and who is in a hurry, maybe she can wait and see.
"Don't cry, Sister Yao, this is not necessarily, the red armband is nothing great, what is there to be afraid of if it is not a red armband? I sent the letter, but I heard from Brother Li over there, he can't do this for long. ”
Yao Honghong looked up at Xu Jiuyan and asked, "Really?" Why? ”
"Sister Yao, how do I know why, but I heard Xiao Li say that Comrade Zhang Xiufang's object has a problem with his life style, I just listened to him, and I don't know what the problem is."
Yao Honghong's eyes lit up when she heard this, then she lowered her head and cleaned up the work in her hand and said, "Hey, we can't care if people don't have a style." ”
