He Caiwei drove directly to the two empty warehouses of the Grain Bureau and took away the baskets and grain bags that Director Zhang had put in.

Looking at the baskets that almost filled a warehouse, He Caiwei was pleasantly surprised. Director Zhang's work efficiency was quite good. He was able to collect so many baskets in just a few hours. Knowing that eggs were to be put in them, he even laid a layer of straw at the bottom.

What surprised He Caiwei the most was that Director Zhang packed the 200,000 yuan in cash into sacks and put it in the warehouse in less than an hour.

After packing up the items, He Caiwei drove around the warehouse entrance several times, creating many tire tracks. When it got dark, she parked the car right there in front of the warehouse, blocking the entrance.

After He Caiwei finished organizing the things, she first took out the rice, corn cobs, and potatoes. These three kinds alone filled the warehouse to the brim.

He Caiwei moved the car to the next warehouse, which was twice the size of the previous one. However, the eggs were a bit difficult to store, and the baskets couldn't be stacked, which made things a bit tricky.

They left the eggs in the truck and then made some in their own space. In another large truck with a fence, they divided it into two sections and put 12 live pigs weighing over 300 kilograms each. The rest of the space was used to put chicken coops. About 400 chickens were put in one half of the truck. Because they were in plastic cages that could be stacked, no one suspected that they could put so many in.

The second warehouse contained not only wheat but also a large amount of peanuts, red beans, and soybeans. The rest of the warehouse was filled with Chinese cabbage and radishes, which also filled the warehouse completely.

After filling the two warehouses, there was nowhere left to put the eggs and duck eggs. She really didn't know that these things could fill two warehouses. She had no choice but to find the people who patrolled at night and ask them to open the first warehouse to see how many eggs could be put in it. There was still no place to put the sweet potatoes.

He Caiwei changed into a set of work clothes, put on a pair of large glasses and gloves, and found the patrolmen. At first, the patrolmen were a little confused, but when they heard that she had come to deliver supplies, they quickly came to their senses.

"Someone please open the first warehouse for me. The other two warehouses are full. Also, call Director Zhang over. I still have some things to deliver to the meat processing plant, but I don't know if anyone is there right now." As soon as He Caiwei finished speaking, several people ran out.

One of them went straight to the first warehouse and opened the door; the patrolmen always had warehouse keys.

"Alright, since you're here, lend a hand. Be careful, these are all chicken and duck eggs. If you're not careful, you could lose hundreds of eggs in one basket." It wasn't that He Caiwei wanted them to get off, but the cart was a bit high, so He Caiwei had specially put up two planks to make it easier for them to lift it down.

If these two warehouses weren't too full, she wouldn't have had to go through all this trouble.

As soon as Director Zhang heard that supplies were being delivered, he rushed over without even bothering to check his clothes, wearing only slippers. By the time he arrived, most of the chicken and duck eggs had already been moved.

"Uncle Zhang, is anyone at the meat processing plant at this time?" He Caiwei looked at the truckload of chickens and pigs next to her. It was too hot, so she had to get these upstairs first.

"Yes, yes, I just called and had someone go over there." Looking at the warehouse that was completely full, Director Zhang felt like he was floating on clouds.

"Here's the list. The extra items are freebies. Take your time looking at it. I've sent you 100,000 chicken eggs and 100,000 duck eggs, no less. The two warehouses next door are already full. Eggs can't be stacked, so I've put them in the first warehouse. We still need to find another warehouse. We don't have a place to put those 200,000 jin of sweet potatoes yet." After saying that, He Caiwei got into the car. On the way, she packed 20 eggs, a bag of sweet potatoes weighing about 5 jin, and a large cabbage for each of the people who helped out that night.

"By the way, this truck belongs to them. Uncle Zhang will have someone drive it to the main road in a bit, and someone will come and take it away." After saying that, He Caiwei drove away.

"Okay, okay, I'll have them drive the truck over. These sweet potatoes will be stored in a warehouse over there by the convoy when it gets light. I'll deliver them over once the warehouse is empty." Director Zhang quickly directed his men to open the warehouse and check. The patrolmen were all a little dumbfounded when they saw the warehouse was full.

They had only seen one warehouse that was full, and thought it was just one warehouse. They didn't expect that the larger warehouse behind it was also full. You should know that filling this one warehouse could supply the entire city of Pengcheng for two months.

"Quickly, two people, get the pigs to the meat processing plant first. We'll have meat available this morning."

After He Caiwei left, she filled the car up again once she got on the main road. Even after filling the two warehouses, she still hadn't finished loading all the supplies. There was still nowhere to put the 200,000 jin of sweet potatoes. And with the weather so hot now, she also planned to send some watermelons to Director Zhang, since her space was overflowing with watermelons.

Director Zhang didn't think there was anything wrong with disturbing others' sleep before dawn? He simply dug Lu Zhiheng up.

Lu Zhiheng had a look on his face that said, "If you don't tell me what happened, I'll beat you up," but he couldn't ruin Director Zhang's good mood.

"Old Lu, I need a large warehouse from the transport team. It must be emptied by tomorrow to store grain for me." Director Zhang's words startled Lu Zhiheng. He knew that the grain bureau already had three huge warehouses, and even in a bumper harvest year, it was impossible to fill all three warehouses.

Why would they want to borrow his warehouse now? What on earth is Old Zhang up to?

"Stop talking nonsense. I have 200,000 jin of sweet potatoes coming into storage tomorrow. You have to guarantee that I have warehouses to store these sweet potatoes, or I'll beat you up." Director Zhang stormed off.

He needed to go watch the people at the meat processing plant slaughtering pigs to calm his agitated emotions.

When he returned to the meat processing plant, the people had already unloaded the pigs and chickens, and several employees of the plant were helping to wash the trucks.

"Yes, yes, it needs to be washed clean."

It's past four in the morning, and Director Zhang is too excited to sleep. The only place he can work this early is this meat processing plant.

I watched them slaughter two pigs in an hour. Today, these two pigs were not to be supplied to the department store, but were slaughtered and sent directly to the factory.

The two pigs yielded nearly 600 jin of meat, but it was still not enough to supply the surrounding factories. Each factory, with over a thousand employees, could only supply 100 jin of meat. This was the result after careful calculation.
