"Huh? Barbecue?" Jia Dongxu said excitedly, "In two days, I'll take you guys to eat barbecue!"

"Tomorrow, I'll take you to the military camp to eat barbecue!" said a soldier next to him. "After we arrive, we'll rest here for a few days and then take the train back to Beijing."

"You will rest with us in the barracks first, but we will separate after that."

"Well, okay, I thought we would go back together. We will be safer this way." Jia Xu said with a smile.

"Okay, you don't have to say anything against your will. I know you all are annoyed with us, but military orders cannot be disobeyed. Please bear with me."

Perhaps because the soldier saw that the mission was almost over, he talked more, but he still looked nervously at the cattle and sheep not far away.

"Those are the herdsmen's cattle and sheep. There are so many of them. I really hope we can bring them to the capital. Look at those cattle. They are so strong!"

Jia Dongxu looked at the cows with envy, calculating how many cows he could exchange for the items he brought with him.

Thinking about exchanging cattle and sheep, I suddenly remembered the items given by the old lady and that I had to go to Suicheng to find Li Muyuan.

I have to prepare some gift for Li Muyuan, how about a brick of tea?

I brought more than 40 yuan with me, so it’s okay to give one yuan as a gift.

Having made up his mind, Jia Dongxu and a few others started a fire, took out the steamed buns and put them on skewers to roast.

The buns made of two-grain flour don't taste very good when they are steamed, but after being baked, the aroma of the paste is delicious.

So several people started baking steamed buns.

"Minister Jia, we have to go back quickly, otherwise we may not be able to leave after it snows." Hu Mingcheng stepped forward and reminded.

When Jia Dongxu heard this, he became anxious. If it snowed and he couldn't leave, it would be meaningless to change more things. "

But Jia Dongxu thought, the soldier just said there was a train back to Beijing, so why didn't anyone bring the items here? Is it possible to transport them back by train?

This way you don't have to worry about snow.

After hearing what Hu Mingcheng said, Jia Dongxu was very reluctant to drive into the military camp in Sui City right away, but it was indeed the soldiers who made the decision.

It seems that if you want to grab something quickly, you must arrive as early as possible and get the things you want to exchange as soon as possible.

Jia Dongxu looked at several soldiers and realized that it was impossible to let them leave now. He could only get off the car directly after arriving in Sui City without following them into the military camp and go directly to find Li Muyuan.

Thinking about these things, Jia Dongxu decided to get off the car and look for it himself when he entered the city tomorrow.

The soldier thought about it and agreed, "Get down quickly when you enter the city."

Jia Dongxu reminded Hu Mingcheng that after the items were delivered, he should come to him with his belongings.

"Minister, how do we contact you?" Hu Mingcheng asked puzzledly.

"You guys go find a guesthouse, I'll go find you there.

Jia Dongxu thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to find someone to help Director Wang and Minister Zhang complete their mission."

After hearing this, several people were shocked. What kind of task is worthy of the deputy minister leading the team in person?

"Okay, okay, let's all go and rest. We still have a whole night left." Jia Xu said as he counted the things on his body and planned to take a fruit knife and brick tea to find Li Muyuan for a gift.

"Captain Hu, after I leave and wait for the truck to be unloaded, you guys go to the guesthouse to rest and wait for me to come find you."

Jia Dongxu immediately arranged it, "Please keep an eye on my belongings for me, they will be of great use to me."

"Okay, I'll take good care of your things. I'll keep them by myself." Hu Mingcheng said with a smile.

Jia Dongxu took the leather jacket given by the old lady from the car, changed into it, and put Qiao Ziqi in his arms.

He took out two bricks of tea and put them in his pocket, and put a few folding knives in his pocket.

Wait until the car stops tomorrow and get off directly. Then the car won't have to stay parked.

I leaned against the front of the car and squinted. As expected, the old lady's leather jacket was warmer, much warmer than her cotton coat. I should have put it on earlier.

In this weather, I couldn't accompany the soldiers on duty at night, so I gave the quilt to the soldiers on duty. Then every two soldiers would guard for a period of time, taking turns to guard all night, and the rest of them would go to sleep in the car.

Jia Dongxu slept in the car until the next morning. Several people drove out directly and took out the warm steamed buns from their arms and ate them for breakfast.

After entering Suicheng, Hu Mingcheng stopped the car briefly, Jia Xu got out of the car, and then the convoy left.

Fortunately, Jia Dongxu had a letter of introduction with him, so he was not arrested. He then went to the Military Control Commission in Suicheng to inquire about Li Muyuan.

I don’t know if it was bad luck or what, but Li Muyuan was not here. As for where he went or when he would be back, I had no idea.

He left a note for someone to pass on.

Fortunately, the man asked Jia Dongxu what was the matter, which gave Jia Dongxu hope.

If he were to rely on finding someone to exchange items immediately, he might not be able to find a place.

Jia Dongxu said that he had brought some brick tea and pots from the capital and wanted to exchange them for some cattle and sheep on the grassland.

The man immediately became enthusiastic when he heard this. He said that brick tea and pots were urgently needed on the grassland. He said that he could come to him tomorrow morning and take him to the nearest herdsmen's trading market.

Because there are so many cattle and sheep, the herders do their trading outside the city instead of in the city. People who don’t know would never know.

After agreeing on a time and asking about the guesthouse, the man said he would go to the guesthouse to meet him the next day.

When Jia Xu saw this, he left happily and went to the guesthouse on Suicheng Street.

Looking at the somewhat dilapidated old city, Jia Dongxu was in high spirits. He strolled around slowly and bought some special delicacies to eat.

When I arrived at the guesthouse, I had already eaten my fill. I took out my letter of introduction, checked into a room, and fell into a deep sleep. This was the first good sleep I had had in days.

When it was almost evening, Hu Mingcheng and others drove over.

Jia Xu was awakened by the sound of the truck. He went out and saw Hu Mingcheng and others. "Tomorrow morning, someone will take us to the nearest trading market. You should go to bed early."

"Are you all going tomorrow?" Hu Mingcheng asked.

"Let's all go. Maybe we can finish it in one go and return directly!" Jia Dongxu said, glancing at everyone.

If you ship the goods from your own factory, you will have much more freedom!
