Double-Cut During the War of Resistance: My Wife Came from 1937

"The space has increased, but we've also been consuming more and more gold!"

Xia Weiwei wrinkled her nose, quite dissatisfied, and said, "At first, the space could only absorb 50 taels of gold, but later it became 100 taels."

"Each time I travel through time, I have to consume 200 taels of gold. Just thinking about it makes my heart ache!"

200 taels of gold could be exchanged for 24000 silver dollars or legal tender before the war.

After the Japanese army launched a full-scale invasion of China, the legal tender began to plummet, and everyone stopped recognizing the official price and instead focused on the black market price.

On the black market, this gold can be exchanged for forty to fifty thousand yuan!

If the Jiaodong Special Committee hadn't started transporting gold, they simply wouldn't have been able to support this gold-devouring behemoth.

"Indeed, we're absorbing more and more gold, but the space is also getting bigger and bigger!"

Ma Hongwei said, "At first, how much space was added at once? Now, we can add more than 100 cubic meters at a time!"

"Besides, it's up to us. Once the space reaches a certain size, we'll stop providing gold."

Xia Weiwei nodded and said, "I can't take it anymore, it's just too hot today, I need to take my clothes off right away!"

She immediately changed her clothes in the small house.

Ma Hongwei said, "I'll turn on the air conditioner!"

"It's not very effective right now!"

Xia Weiwei shook her head and said, "Besides, the sudden changes in temperature can easily cause a cold. We still have a mission to complete, so we can't afford to get sick."

"Oh well!"

Ma Hongwei also felt very hot and humid, and started sweating. He quickly took off his clothes.

After changing their clothes, the two went out of the house.

"call!"

Xia Weiwei said, "I feel that although it's sunny outside, it's cooler than inside, at least it's not as stuffy."

"Let's go home now!"

Ma Hongwei said, "Go back and take a shower first. By the way, what do you want to eat tonight? How about a big meal?"

"I'm not going!"

Xia Weiwei directly refused.

Ma Hongwei thought to himself, "They really are the older generation; their frugality is just like my mother's."

Of course, he only thought these words to himself and dared not say them aloud.

No woman is indifferent to her age, especially when she is told she is "old".

The two drove the van back to the large supply and marketing cooperative.

Ma Hongwei opened the back door and drove the car inside.

Then, he and Xia Weiwei got out of the car and went to the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Hey, Hongwei's back!"

Upon seeing Ma Hongwei and Xia Weiwei appear, Grandma Sun quickly stood up.

She said to the two of them, "Now that you're back, I'll head back now!"

With that, the old lady stood up and walked outside.

"Third Aunt, don't rush off!"

When Ma Hongwei saw that the other party was about to leave, he quickly grabbed two boxes of milk and followed them.

He caught up with Grandma Sun and said to her, "Thank you for helping out at the shop these past two days. Here are two cases of milk for you to take home and drink."

"What are you saying!"

Grandma Sun shook her head and said, "We're all neighbors, I'm just helping out, how could I possibly accept anything from you!"

"Third Aunt!"

Ma Hongwei advised, "Milk isn't worth much these days, just take it back!"

Grandma Sun said firmly, "I'm just an old woman, I can't eat or drink much, I really can't accept your things."

"Look at you, old lady, why are you so stubborn!"

Ma Hongwei said, "I have to go out for a couple of days and I'll need you to come and help out at the shop, Auntie. If you don't accept this, I'll feel embarrassed to ask you for help again."

"Then I'll take a whole case!"

Upon hearing this, Grandma Sun's tone softened somewhat.

She said to Ma Hongwei, "Right now it's just me and your third uncle at home. My children, daughter, and granddaughter aren't home, and they can't drink this much milk. There's really no need to give them so much; it's just a waste."

"That's hardly a waste..."

Ma Hongwei said with a smile, "I'll take this milk over to you."

"You don't need to go. If you went, you would have just left both boxes there!"

Grandma Sun took a carton of milk from Ma Hongwei and said, "I only need this carton; you can take the other one back."

After saying that, she picked up the milk in her hand and walked towards her home.

As they walked, Grandma Sun suddenly remembered something, turned around, and deliberately reminded her, "Please don't leave it in my hallway, or I'll have to bring it back to you."

Watching the other person's departing figure, Ma Hongwei couldn't help but sigh, "That old lady..."

He was planning to give the other person two boxes of milk, but the other person only accepted one box.

Ma Hongwei returned to the supply and marketing cooperative, put the milk there, and went back to the living room.

"Splash!"

Just then, the sound of running water came from the bathroom, clearly Xia Weiwei was taking a shower.

"Glug!"

Ma Hongwei swallowed hard and stepped forward.

"Click-clack!"

However, when he tried to turn the door, he found that it had been locked from the inside.

"Who?"

Furthermore, Xia Weiwei's wary voice could be heard coming from inside.

"Honey, it's me!"

Ma Hongwei asked with a smile, "Can you reach my back? Why don't you open the door and let me scrub you?"

"Pooh!"

Upon hearing these words, Xia Weiwei immediately spat and refused, "Fine, I won't open it then. Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!"

How could you misunderstand me like that!

Seeing that there was no chance, Ma Hongwei could only return to the sofa.

He took out his phone and started ordering goods.

He ordered 306 tons of rice.

Although the rice there hasn't been finished yet, he didn't transport any rice last time, so he needs to transport more this time.

Moreover, the various divisions and bases over there are expanding their forces, and with the increasing number of troops, the consumption of food and supplies will also increase.

It's better to be prepared.

For canned goods, he chose braised beef, dace with black bean sauce, and yellow peaches.

The tonnages are the same as last time, at 26.05 tons, 23.58 tons, and 15.75 tons respectively.

"Next up is the water bottle... no, I should say the thermos!"

Ma Hongwei started searching for thermos cups online.

In the dead of winter, if the soldiers could have a sip of hot water, it would warm them up.

Making soldiers drink ice water in the dead of winter would be a real ordeal.

After all, the Chinese are not like those people from Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea who drink ice water.

The key to a thermos is its inner liner, which comes in three different levels on the market.

They are made of 201 steel, which is the cheapest but also the worst quality, and is not recommended for storing boiling water.

Secondly, there is ordinary 304 stainless steel, which is food grade and is the most commonly used on construction sites and outdoors.

The most expensive one is naturally the 316 antibacterial inner liner, which can keep you warm for a long time, and it also comes with a carrying strap, but it is also the most expensive.

Since it was intended for use by the Eighth Route Army soldiers, it naturally couldn't be too inferior.

Anyway, these kinds of goods aren't going to be that expensive.
