Chapter 104 103. Another Silk Banner Promised

Chiang Kai-shek fell asleep.

Officer Zhang pulled out his equipment and got to work.

Luo Yihang watched curiously from the side.

He was recording data, such as the distance from Beishan to Sanchagou and then to Yincaoshan, how to turn at the fork in the road, etc.

It turns out that the straight-line distance from Beishan to the supply point is 7.1 kilometers, and the 10.8 shown on the map that day was the distance to the main peak of Yutai Mountain.

However, the distance traveled was 22.4 kilometers, and Luo Yihang and his team walked this distance from eight in the morning to two in the afternoon.

Officer Zhang also said, "If we take the original route, we will reach the supply point at 5 or 6 o'clock. In winter, it gets dark early, and we have to walk the last section in the dark."

"Then why not?" Luo Yihang pointed to the main peak of Yutai Mountain on the map. The main peak has been developed into a tourist attraction. It has everything, including a convenience store, and the distance is also short.

"You mean coming from the main peak?" Xiao Zhang shook his head and explained, "You can go to the northern slope from there, but you can't get there from the south because of the cliffs. The straight-line distance looks short, but it's actually quite far, about 40 to 50 kilometers."

Well, everything we can think of, others must have thought of it before.

Luo Yihang stopped disturbing them and went out to take some pictures of the scenery while Officer Zhang continued to work.

Then, as if by telepathy, as soon as Xiao Zhang finished his work, Lao Jiang woke up.

The three of them lined up and squatted by the creek, washing their faces with cold water.

Wow, the water is so cold! We all shivered and immediately became alert.

Luo Yihang took out the chocolate and gave each person a piece to replenish some sugar and calories, and then returned home.

It was much faster to go back because we didn’t have to find the way. We set out at three o’clock and got back at around seven in the afternoon.

Officer Zhang was very happy. Not only was the new route shorter than the original one, but the first section was also easier to walk on, which saved a lot of time.

Then Luo Yihang made him even happier.

"I built a makeshift house downstairs. It was originally a power distribution room. I'll clean it up and use it as a supply point for you guys."

"There's electricity and water over there. I see you're going to use a lot of batteries, so you can put some spare batteries there for charging. I'll put a refrigerator, an induction cooker, a kettle, and other things in there, so you can take a shower and have a bottle of iced Coke after patrolling the mountains."

“I’ll put in a few boxes of instant noodles and a few boxes of mineral water, and I’ll make some water and cook noodles when I patrol the mountains in winter.

"Bring your own basin and box to put some clothes in. Soak your feet and change into dry socks and underwear."

Along the way, I found that the forest rangers are really hard-working. It doesn't cost much anyway, so we should provide some convenience if we can. After all, it takes a long time to drive from the mountains to their dormitories.

After hearing this, Officer Zhang was still being polite, "Oh my, no need, Brother Luo, no need, really, it's too much trouble."

Hmm, hmm, it would look more like her if you could pull in the corners of your mouth.

"It's okay. I use solar panels for electricity and the water for bathing comes from the river. They're all free. We also need instant noodles and mineral water when we work in the mountains. At most, you can bring back some to replenish what you use."

With that said, it is much easier to accept if there are enough steps. Water and electricity are free, and other people have to use them themselves. After eating and using them, they can just bring them back next time. At most, they can bring more.

Officer Zhang agreed immediately, "Oh my goodness, if you can have a bowl of hot soup and soak your feet while patrolling the mountains in winter, it would be a lifesaver. It would be so wonderful."

After he finished speaking, he called Officer Yuan and told him the good news that the route had been found.

Then he handed the phone to Luo Yihang. Setting up the supply point was called supporting the police and the people, and it was a close relationship between the police and the people. Whether it was a credit or not was another matter, but Luo Yihang had to hear the words of thanks in person.

Luo Yihang took the phone and just stated his identity. Before he could say anything, Officer Yuan spoke first with great enthusiasm, "Xiao Luo, how did you know I was going to be on TV?"

???

Luo Yihang took the phone in front of him and looked at it in confusion. The note on it was [Police Officer Yuan]. What? When did he become a fisherman?

Just show off, right?

Well, I'll cooperate first. "You're going to be on TV, which channel?" "Hey, it's about the crested ibis. I accepted an interview. It's not a big deal. It's on the city's TV station, the evening news. They told me it will be broadcast tonight, the first broadcast will be at 8 o'clock tonight, after the news broadcast. I don't have time to watch it, so why are you telling me this?"

This way of showing off is so awkward and unbearable to watch.

He responded with a few "hmm" and "ah" and talked about the supply point.

Officer Yuan immediately stopped showing off and expressed his gratitude, even saying that he would apply for a banner.

Luo Yihang jokingly asked if it could be exchanged for a bonus, but Officer Yuan did not respond and changed the subject.

Hang up the phone and get in the car.

Lao Jiang suddenly perked up and suggested excitedly, "After eating dry bread for several meals, my mouth feels bland. How about getting some meat tonight?"

He caught a thief yesterday and he was eating bread.

Luo Yihang glanced at him and said, "Are you still okay in this state? Why don't you go back to sleep?"

"It's okay. I made it through it. I'm feeling energetic now. I'm going to take a day off tomorrow and have a good sleep."

All right, "Then come home with me. I have a piece of beef at home. I'll stew it for you."

Lao Jiang waved his hand, "I don't feel comfortable going home, forget it, I'll find a professional."

What professionals? Luo Yihang was still wondering when he saw Lao Jiang making a phone call, "Hello, Qiangwa, I'm with Hangwazi, are you free tonight? Let's have a barbecue."

It turns out he is such a professional.

It’s indeed professional. Qiangwa likes to instigate this kind of thing.

Officer Xiao Zhang drove the car and dropped Luo Yihang and Lao Jiang off in front of Qiangwa's store.

He also wanted to go, but unfortunately he received a series of fatal calls, asking him to go back and work overtime to finish the report. They said that the earlier they applied, the earlier they could change the route, and the forest rangers, forest police, and forest firefighters could save time.

What a huge "moral kidnapping"! Xiao Zhang left crying.

When Luo Yihang and his friends arrived, Qiang Wa was sitting at the door making a phone call to get help.

"Come over tonight, drink, have fun, have some barbecue, some beer, eat, chat, life is full of fun... Don't worry, no one's paying, we'll all pay for it, the same goes for the two of you... We're all acquaintances, we'll get to know each other once we meet... Okay, around seven or eight o'clock, come over at about the same time, I'll send you the location."

"Who is this?" Luo Yihang walked over and took the stool next to him and asked.

"Teacher Zhang and his wife, we had a good chat last time and we can become friends, so we'll invite them this time too."

"Oh." Luo Yihang said he understood, and then asked, "Who else did you invite? Where did you book?"

"It's still Liu Piaoliang, she's cooked. Put your kid down!" The latter sentence was shouted to Chiang Kai-shek.

Lao Jiang strolled behind Qiangwa's counter and touched the "rations" he had hidden, and was yelled at.

Just yell if you want, Lao Jiang didn't take it seriously, he just took out a bag of melon seeds and started cracking them.

Qiang Wa didn't take it seriously and continued, "Sui Wa and his wife said they were coming over. The two Zhang teachers, as well as Sister Qin, and Liu Yang said they were at their mother-in-law's house and were busy."

"Ha." Luo Yihang laughed after hearing this, "Where did Liu Yang get a mother-in-law? He's just a bootlicker."

The two bad guys were about to laugh at Liu Yang when a big head suddenly popped up above their heads, "Who are you talking about? Sister Qin? My wife?"

Lao Jiang pointed at his nose and his eyes widened again.

"Yes, your wife, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong? You called me your wife, how come I didn't know?"
