Chapter 252 Yes, it’s just a small matter!
Xiong Jie was slightly stunned. He felt the politeness in the voice.
What excited him the most was what Ding Ning said, that once the passage was opened, she would take back the control over him.
"Jiang Che has something to do now. I can only contact you in the human world." Ding Ning continued.
Xiong Jie took a deep breath, "You don't have to be so polite. You are Jiang Che's lover, and I also treat you as my junior." Xiong Jie calmed himself down. No matter whether Ding Ning would release his control over him later, all he wanted was a promise like this.
Since others have said so, he will not say anything else to take advantage of the situation.
In addition, Ding Ning had not given him any instructions for a long time, which gave him the illusion that he was out of control.
"Uncle, can you help me find some more salt?" Ding Ning asked embarrassedly.
"Ah? How much does this cost?" Xiong Jie was stunned. He thought he was being told to do something difficult and dangerous, and he was ready to risk his life.
He understood very clearly that if he wanted freedom, he had to fight for it himself.
He rubbed his ears, even though Ding Ning's words went straight to his heart.
"Is it the seasoning salt we use for food?" He thought about it, and it seemed that the salt that everyone usually talks about was this thing.
"Yes, that's it. Can you help me find some more?"
"We have this in our warehouse, and the quantity is sufficient." Xiong Jie had not expected that asking Ning to find him would be such an easy task.
They prepared a lot of survival supplies, especially a lot of seasoning like salt.
"Really?" Ding Ning was overjoyed. She was still thinking that this thing must be hard to find, and Xiong Jie gave her a surprise.
Come to think of it, salt is such a precious thing, Jiang Che will definitely collect some. Even if Jiang Che doesn't understand, he has Xiong Jie and Feihu by his side.
She should be assured that these two people are handling matters for Jiang Che.
"Can you take me to have a look?" Ding Ning wanted to see how much salt they had stored.
"No problem!" Xiong Jie put down the work in his hands.
"You guys continue, I'll be back later." After greeting the people working around him, he walked towards the warehouse with instructions.
Ding Ning was able to see the situation from his perspective, and he always remembered this.
Xiong Jie didn't walk far when he saw a temporary warehouse built simply with bricks. The warehouse was very tall and there were corresponding things on each floor.
"The first floor is full of daily necessities, such as paper." Ding Ning was just looking at the salt, but he still introduced the things stored here to Ding Ning. He also wanted Ding Ning to see that he had been following Jiang Che and had indeed planned and prepared a lot of things for him.
Ding Ning looked at the warehouse full of supplies and nodded affirmatively. She didn't recognize these things, but it was good to be prepared. If humans prepared them, they would definitely be useful.
"Here are some foods that can be stored for a long time. They have been vacuum-processed. We are also breeding and planting some of the food, so that we can have a constant supply of fresh supplies in the future." Xiong Jie pointed at the food in front of him. He had prepared a lot, and they also had a lot of warehouses like this. Even if they couldn't grow anything within a few years, they could still hold on for a few years.
As for a few years later, that’s all later.
There must be a way out when the car reaches the mountain. Even if there is no food on that day, they can find a way to survive. "Not bad." Ding Ning nodded affirmatively. She became more and more certain about her decision to keep Xiong Jie.
"We have many such warehouses, and we will open up material reserves in different warehouses at each stage."
While introducing the ingredients to Ding Ning, Xiong Jie took her towards the place where the seasonings were stored.
"In addition to salt, we have also prepared some other seasonings and spices. Although salt can be used for cooking, when life is still okay, other things can still add color." Xiong Jie estimated the proportions of the stockpiled supplies.
They have many warehouses like this, and the amount of salt in the boxes on this half wall is enough for this group of people to use for a long time.
Ding Ning looked at the boxes on half of the wall, which was only one layer, and she frowned slightly.
It seems that humans store salt in amounts that are thrifty. If she used the amount she did, the salt would not be enough for her to cook a few meals, not to mention her desire to learn how to cook.
"Can you find some more?" Ding Ning asked awkwardly. She knew that her request was very embarrassing. Knowing that something was precious, she still asked people to look for it again.
"Of course, it doesn't matter if you can't find it." Ding Ning said quickly. If you are a little more frugal, these should be able to be used for a long time.
"Ah?" Xiong Jie was stunned. Although supplies were stored according to proportion, something like salt, even a small bag, could be used for a long time.
The salt in this half wall will be left over when all the food in this warehouse is eaten up.
Isn’t that enough?
"Don't worry, other warehouses have corresponding reserves, and each warehouse stocks them according to the proportion." Xiong Jie was afraid that Ding Ning thought that these were all they had.
"If the others are not needed, then aren't they for stage-by-stage use?" Ding Ning shook her head. She just didn't understand humans, but she also knew that she couldn't touch the supplies that would be used in the next stage.
"Then... I'll go get some more for you..." Xiong Jie scratched his head. He didn't understand and didn't dare to ask. An SSS-level lord must have his own ideas when doing things.
There were some things he didn't need to ask, because at their stage, they wouldn't understand many things even if they were told.
"Thank you for your help. Don't force yourself if it's difficult." Ding Ning whispered.
"No, no, you're too polite." Hearing this, Xiong Jie felt relieved. Even for such a small matter, Ding Ning spoke to him politely. It seemed that he really intended to let him go free.
He didn't expect that the couple he didn't approve of at the beginning now have the most rare relationship in this apocalypse.
After all, which SSS-level lord would speak nicely to a low-level human like himself?
Which SSS-level lord would really fall in love with a human.
At first, he really thought that Jiang Che was just a toy like himself.
"I will definitely get this done for you, don't worry." He might not be able to do other things, but if it was just a small matter like finding salt, even if the salt was buried under the dark wood, he would take a bus to dig it up.
Even if there is all the salt in the world, he can find it somehow!
Just looking for salt, this is not the ancient times.
Yes, it’s just such a small thing!
If he can't even handle such a small task, he might as well die.
But he didn’t understand why Jiang Che’s wife wanted so much salt?
