The Life of a Son-in-Law in a Courtyard House

Don't mention how Yang Dalin came to know about this stuff, because it has a very high density, almost like gold.

Therefore, even a small bag or a tiny amount can be extremely heavy.

In his previous life, Yang Dalin had read a novel about the War of Resistance against Japan that described how the New Fourth Army used tungsten ore to exchange for supplies. He had searched for photos of this metal.

Tungsten metal is silvery-white when it is free of impurities.

However, since it is currently in the crude refining stage and still in powder form, it appears grayish-black and is particularly heavy. Yang Dalin guessed that it was most likely tungsten powder.

This stuff is one of the rare metals we used to pay off our debts.

It seems the Russians imported a lot of their stuff from us.

Our country has the largest reserves of this stuff.

Other items unloaded from the carriages included grain, frozen meat from various animals, and fruit.

Those bright red apples and golden oranges are only available to them from within China.

Otherwise, where would the Russians have these things at this time?

Yang Dalin was ready and would soon see where the delivery vehicles were headed.

He planned to run to a car and hide there, then go with them to the warehouse.

So Yang Dalin left the train station early and waited outside in a place where there were no police.

Anyway, Yang Dalin saw which direction they came from.

The convoy quickly finished loading its goods and came out. When the last vehicle passed by him, Yang Dalin slipped out and hopped onto the last grain truck.

The vehicle had not traveled far.

Yang Dalin felt that they arrived at their destination in less than half an hour.

There are a large number of soldiers surrounding the area.

It is estimated to be the location of an important strategic material warehouse.

The vehicle was thoroughly inspected at the entrance.

They were then allowed to enter.

Sure enough, there were many warehouses built inside, stretching as far as the eye could see.

It looks like there are various specialized warehouses for storing grain, meat, and temporarily storing fruit.

I just don't know where those rare metals were transported to.

The vehicles carrying rare metals split up at a fork in the road as they approached this point.

Let's forget about those rare metals.

Yang Dalin decided to stick to his original plan.

They raided their grain depots.

It's probably because it's evening.

Instead of unloading the vehicles immediately, they were driven into the middle of a large warehouse.

These drivers then went off to eat after get off work.

The goods were temporarily left on the vehicle and no one was taking care of them.

Perhaps because of the weather, they figured it wouldn't get bad and would wait until tomorrow during the day to unload the cargo.

It's normal that the vehicle wasn't parked outside because it was winter, but instead drove into a warehouse.

Yang Dalin and the others had all left before he quietly came out.

Taking advantage of the fact that everyone outside had gone to the cafeteria for lunch, Yang Dalin quietly slipped into their office building.

This place is strict on the outside but loose on the inside.

Yang Dalin barely encountered any people along the way.

There was no inspection inside; it was very lax.

Yang Dalin only hid in the space three times along the way before entering someone else's office area.

The people inside this office building are probably all out for lunch by now.

I didn't encounter many people after I came in.

Yang Dalin arrived at the office of the other party's highest-ranking officer.

Upon entering the room, one would notice that the officer had posted a floor plan of all the warehouses on the wall.

This saved Yang Dalin the trouble of searching.

The image is covered with a dense array of words.

Yang Dalin had looked up all these words beforehand; he didn't know how to pronounce them, but he recognized them, and he had a lot of them in his warehouse.

It is divided into several areas.

There is a designated area for storing grains and oils.

There is a designated area for storing medicines.

There is a designated area for storing petroleum products.

There are also areas specifically designated for strategic mineral products and key raw materials.

This place is very big, and it has several gates.

There isn't just one gate, so the tungsten ore might have been transported here as well.

But they just didn't go through the same door.

Yang Dalin simply copied down the blueprints.

Nothing inside had been touched.

Since it was moved, it means that outsiders have been in, so there's no need to worry.

He went out on his own to conduct on-site reconnaissance.

The Russians don't seem to lack oil; their oil reserves are probably used for daily supplies.

Therefore, it's better to focus on the other side's grain depots.

It probably contains not only grains, but also cooking oil, meat, sugar, salt, and so on.

We'll talk about those areas that contain strategic minerals later.

As for the medicine, you don't need to take it with you. If the situation gets too bad, just burn it.

Oil can certainly be set on fire.

Yang Dalin arrived at the grain storage area. "Damn, there are so many warehouses, one after another."

It's a huge area, you can't see the end of it.

However, Yang Dalin, who was on patrol, did not find many of them.

Yang Dalin rushed into a warehouse.

It was full of rice, and Yang Dalin didn't stand on ceremony; he hadn't expected that people would eat rice.

I thought they would only eat potatoes and bread.

Since you like it, then forget it, don't eat it, I'll help you.

With a single touch, Yang Dalin stored all the rice into his spatial storage.

There is no alarm device inside that triggers when the weight is reduced.

So it's empty inside, and people outside have no idea.

As Yang Dalin swept through the warehouses, he found a lot of grain, as well as cooking oil, sugar, salt, and other supplies.

As for the meat, it is all stored in a special cold storage.

Yang Dalin didn't hold back either.

Many of these were paid off domestically, so there's no need to be so polite.

By the time they finished running through these warehouses, it was almost dawn.

It's easy to imagine how much stuff the Russians have hidden here.

As for how the person in charge here will explain to the Corn Emperor tomorrow how these things suddenly disappeared into thin air, that's not something Yang Dalin needs to worry about.

The pharmaceutical warehouse area is not very large.

Yang Dalin symbolically collected a small amount, but left the rest untouched.

They didn't set a fire either, because it would be difficult to ignite, and if they did, it would immediately attract attention.

It's hard to explain if you collect too much of this stuff and then sell it.

Unlike you, taking out unlabeled grains and oils, without any writing, there's no problem taking them out domestically, as long as you don't produce large quantities.

After thinking it over, Yang Dalin decided to empty the oil warehouse.

The Russians have plenty of oil, so let's just take it and pump it out ourselves.

Even if we find an opportunity later to give it to the Northwest region of China for them to use, that would be fine too.

If it's inconvenient, I'll keep it for when I start my own company in the future.

Yang Dalin didn't stand on ceremony at the mineral products warehouse.

There are no written markings, which will make it easier to resell if there's an opportunity in the future.

So Yang Dalin ran around all night to finish covering the entire strategic reserve area.

After collecting his belongings, Yang Dalin fled the area and disappeared into the vast forest.

After taking a long detour, Yang Dalin finally released a jeep and set off again towards the capital.

This kind of situation will probably be fine for now in other places, but things will likely get chaotic in Russia.

Because the Russians were already experiencing food shortages.

If this news gets out, it could trigger a food crisis in Russia much earlier than expected.
