The 144th Barrier was suddenly bustling with activity, simply because a batch of potatoes had suddenly been shipped in from outside the barrier, the cartloads of potatoes were extremely large and felt like small watermelons.

If the person in charge of the transportation didn’t personally admit that they were potatoes, I’m afraid the residents of the barrier wouldn’t believe it.

At this moment, Zhou Yingxue was sitting on the first transportation truck, leading the caravan towards the barrier market, this was the task that Ren Xiaosu had given her, asking her to use potatoes to solve the urgent problem of the food shortage on the 144th barrier side.

Zhou Yingxue was usually so arrogant that she didn’t care about anyone, but the words Ren Xiaosu explained to her were all on her mind.

Now the potato shooter harvest, she naturally rushed to bring the first batch of potatoes to claim credit.

Only, the policy research office side Wang Yue interest is in the office to open a small meeting, but heard the hand down to report: “Director Wang, the black market that brought a large batch of potatoes into the city, said to let the barriers residents to receive it free of charge, the potatoes are particularly large, I do not know where she got it.”

Everyone else in the office froze for a moment, “How big is especially big?”

“It looks like a watermelon,” the subordinate gestured and said, “This is good, the price of food in the barriers should have stabilized.”

For the Northwest where food was becoming increasingly scarce, this was indeed good news.

Only when Wang Yuexiu heard this he didn’t think so, he suddenly stood up, “Where is the caravan? Hurry up and stop them for me!”

The people in the office all froze for a moment, “What’s wrong, Mr. Wang?”

But they saw Wang Yuexii put on his jacket and rushed outside in a hurry: “It’s too late to explain so much, first stop the convoy for me.”

“But the black market that is not good to stop ah, you also know her style of behavior ……”

“It’s not good to stop but also have to give me to stop,” Wang Yuexii said, “My side will immediately rushed to the scene.”

When Wang Yuexiu arrived, Zhou Yingxue was sitting in the car with a gloomy face, while in front of their truck convoy, there were two patrol cars of the Order Department parked to block the way.

Zhou Yingxue saw Wang Yuexiu come over and smiled coldly, “You can, my master is too important to you, so you think even my fleet can be stopped? If not, we will now go to my master to say say, see who in his talk more weight? Get out of my way!”

Although Zhou Yingxue in Ren Xiaosu where well-behaved incomparable, may be in the wall outside the black market woman, which can really be so well-behaved ah, when Zhou Yingxue first arrived, there are people coveted her black market business, and even coveted this person.

As a result, all of those people are now evaporating and don’t know where they were thrown as fertilizer.

Wang Yuexii seriously said, “This has nothing to do with who the marshal values, I also have my reasons for stopping your caravan, even if I go to the marshal’s place to comment on it I’m not afraid.”

Saying that, Wang Yuexiu first let the people from the Order Department evacuate all the onlookers, and then walked up to survey the potatoes on the car.

Zhou Yingxue raised her eyebrows, “I’m doing a good deed for the barriers, don’t you know that my master is anxious about the grain shortage?”

“I understand that you are well-intentioned, but it is very likely that you are doing a bad thing with good intentions,” Wang Yuexiu was actually a scholar with a bit of arrogance in his bones, and it was this arrogance that led to him not having a job for a long time back then, and not being treated well everywhere he went.

And now Zhou Yingxue heard him say so, suddenly not happy: “You say how my good intentions to do bad things, you do not say a reason, this day will invite you to go to the black market to drink tea.”

Wang Yue rest said, “Let’s go, let’s go to the Major together to discuss this matter.”

“No need, I’m coming,” Ren Xiaosu heard that Wang Yuexiu stopped Zhou Yingxue’s caravan and came urgently, he curiously said, “Did something happen?”

Zhou Yingxue just had a bold look on her face, but as soon as Ren Xiaosu appeared, she immediately changed to an aggrieved face: “Master, didn’t you ask me to plant potatoes, but when I sent the potatoes to him, he said that I was doing something bad out of good intentions, and that the potatoes were poisonous or something. By the way master, there is good news from my side, now not only can I plant potatoes, but I have also collected seeds of other crops, you see the last cart is the winter melon I planted the day before yesterday! But I’ve worked so hard to solve your problems for you, master, and someone is falsely accusing me ……”

Since Ren Xiaosu said he wanted to greatly develop the Northwest, Zhou Yingxue didn’t stay idle, she unprecedentedly took her black market henchmen to reclaim a piece of wasteland, and then offered a high-priced bounty in the black market: searching for crops that have mutated, which includes and is not limited to wheat, sorghum, winter melons, tomatoes, etc. ……

Zhou Yingxue’s ability to harvest strange seeds must be used on plants that have been mutated, but not ordinary plants.

This is still the first time in the black market so plain bounty task, before are assassination ah, selling intelligence ah, create accidental death ah, delivery of secret goods and other tasks, now this high hanging in the black market task bar at the top of the task, looks so out of place.

The good guys in the black market, or the first time they found themselves in such close contact with the food, and the price is quite high, so high that those who swore to do only high-end tasks of the assassins, have run into the wilderness in search of mutant crops to go.

Nowadays, the slogans in front of the black market have been changed, in the past, it was “If you are greedy and afraid of death, don’t enter this door”.

Now it reads, “From tomorrow onwards, care for food and vegetables, from tomorrow onwards, face the sea, flowers blossom in spring.”

The words were pronounced in Northwest Chinese with an extra touch.

It had to be said that Zhou Yingxue was indeed no less dedicated than Wang Fugui and the others in solving Ren Xiaosu’s problems.

Now someone said that she is good intentions to do bad things, she Zhou Yingxue can not stand this aggravation!

Ren Xiaosu glanced at her, “Speak properly don’t pretend to be aggrieved, no one has done anything to you, you weren’t seen like this before, don’t learn bad from people, Wang Yue rest, you say it.”

“It’s like this Major,” Wang Yuexii explained, “You also mentioned the potato thing before, but I don’t know about Transcendents, so I didn’t know that planting potatoes is so fast, I haven’t even had time to plan in detail, and the potatoes were shipped in. Having potatoes is of course a good thing, and I would like to thank Miss Zhou first, but these potatoes should definitely not be put into the marketplace for free.”

In Wang Yuexiu’s opinion, although this batch of potatoes could suppress the price of food in the short term, if the appearance of free potatoes caused some small stall owners to lose their jobs, causing the vegetables and fruits in their hands to rot in their hands, it would instead be a blow to the entire market.

Of course, people can not eat only potatoes, should buy cabbage will still buy, but must buy less than usual.

Wang Yuexiu continued, “Just now I heard Miss Zhou say that she can plant something else, but I don’t think this move is suitable for large scale planting.”

Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment, “Why?”

“Major I’ll ask you a question,” Wang Yuexii said, “If all people could obtain unlimited living resources without having to work anymore, would they be full, or would they be empty?”
