Chapter 382: When the Country Needs It, I Have It!

"Why have you two been chatting for so long? If you don't come downstairs soon, the food will get cold," Liu Xicai said hurriedly when she saw the two of them coming down.

An Yinan pinched her own cheeks; she felt like Big Aunt had fed her fat over this past month.

At An Yinan's insistent pleading, Grandmother and Big Aunt finally agreed to let her return to school, though there was a condition: no matter how busy she was, she had to come home once a month.

"Comrade, could you donate something?" A female comrade walked up to An Yinan's side, her face full of entreaty.

An Yinan walked over to that table. "What's going on?"

Donating things? Had something major happened somewhere?

She had been isolated from the world while in the hospital for this past month.

"War has broken out in the south, and many soldiers are joining the battlefield one after another; there are also many patriots who have gone to the south to provide aid."

"We have established a Material Reserve Office here to first make some contributions to the Frontline."

"Those soldiers are suffering so much; the food reserves are insufficient, and they have nothing to eat at all."

"Comrade, can you donate a little? It doesn't need to be much, even a handful of rice will do."

The female comrade's eyes were already red as she spoke.

An Yinan frowned and said to her, "To be honest, I cannot trust you."

"If you want materials, that's fine. Bring your government-recognized credentials here, and after our people verify them, we will give you a large amount of materials," An Yinan said.

She hadn't known about Chen Xun's mission before, but now she did.

That man had already rushed to the battlefield.

Then she would prepare sufficient supplies.

She was willing to add a stroke to his magnificent blueprint.

An Yinan picked up the pen on the table and wrote an address on a piece of white paper; this address was none other than Guo Tiexiong's courtyard.

"Okay, we will go." The female comrade nodded firmly.

The first batch of materials they had collected had already been sent to the south, but word had come back from the people there that such a small amount of supplies was merely a drop in the bucket.

Regardless of whether this female comrade was playing a prank or if it was true, they had to make this trip.

After leaving the address, An Yinan left directly.

If they didn't come, she had other ways to send the materials away.

If they did come, she wouldn't mind gifting them an achievement.

When returning to school, An Yinan took a turn and went straight to Guo Tiexiong's courtyard.

The telephone that was originally intended to be installed at Xiao Yuan had now been installed here.

They didn't stay at Xiao Yuan often, but Guo Ge was always stationed here, and he would notify and handle any matters immediately.

"Nan Nan, how are you? Has your body recovered?" Seeing An Yinan enter the courtyard, Sister-in-law hurriedly put down the broom in her hand and looked her up and down.

"Sister-in-law, I'm fine. As long as it's not strenuous exercise or movement, it's all fine," An Yinan said with a smile.

Actually, the hospital told her to recuperate for half a year, but she felt like she was growing mold after staying in the hospital for just one month.

Besides, there were so many things waiting for her.

How could she possibly rest for half a year?

"You still need to rest well. I'll take you back to school in a while." An Yinan's incident this time had frightened many people.

Guo Tiexiong also came out of the room. His wheelchair was made by himself and was very special; he could control it himself, and unless it was a special situation, he basically didn't need anyone else to intervene.

"Do you have something for me?" Guo Tiexiong said.

Logically speaking, she had just had an accident, so it was impossible for her to be running around like this.

Even if she didn't care herself, there were too many people who did.

Before, he had just thought she was a troublemaker, but the person who called was Chen Xun; he trusted his brother, and he really didn't want to stay in his hometown anymore, which was why he had risked coming to Beijing.

But after seeing the clothing shop, he knew that this person was not a troublemaker; she had her own plans, and her thinking was very advanced and she had already put it into action.

Later, when they met for the first time, she told him that Chen Xun was her man; so, it turned out she was his brother's wife.

Later still, when those various forces came to ask about what happened that day, he realized that this sister-in-law seemed very extraordinary.

It wasn't until he met the old Leader that he realized she was more than just extraordinary; in his heart, she was no longer just Chen Xun's wife, but a comrade named An Yinan.

"Guo Ge, take a look at this." An Yinan handed over the flyer.

It was written on it about the situation in the south and the shortage of materials; Guo Tiexiong had heard about it earlier than she had.

"What are your thoughts?" Guo Tiexiong asked.

An Yinan didn't answer, but instead asked a question, "What are the profits in the south?"

These days, she had handed all the businesses that belonged to her to Guo Ge, and the account books from there were also sent here first.

"As of now, the books show over three hundred thousand, but the shops need to keep one hundred thousand for turnover."

"Also, Kang Jian called; there are two shops there for sale, and I took the liberty of having him buy them directly, and we also bought a large warehouse together." He hadn't reported any of this to An Yinan.

The two of them had an understanding: she didn't ask, he didn't report, and they would have an audit once a year.

"That's enough!" An Yinan finally felt a bit more at ease.

"Guo Ge, withdraw one hundred thousand to purchase food, clothing, medicine, and other supplies."

"I will gather two warehouses' worth of food."

"The female comrade who gave me this paper might come over with her credentials in the next two days. Please help me verify them well; if there are no problems, you can give them some of the materials."

"As for the other materials, support the south in the name of the company."

After thinking it over, An Yinan brought it up directly; the country needed help now, and the soldiers needed supplies.

It was a good thing she went to Yangcheng last time and had industries under her own name; it would be more convenient to use the liquid capital now.

"Have you decided?" Guo Tiexiong asked.

One hundred thousand! How many people had seen this much money nowadays?

They would likely be too afraid to even listen, yet the person before them, without the slightest hesitation, directly exchanged this money for supplies to donate to the country and the soldiers.

An Yinan was puzzled, "What is there to decide or not decide? When the country is in need, I have it."

And wasn't the goal of her earning money precisely for this moment?

She left without looking at the ledgers or asking about other matters regarding the shop.

And that sentence, "When the country is in need, I have it!"

Made Guo Tiexiong submit.

An Yinan returned to school; today was a study day, and the entire school was very quiet.

Banners were also hung in various places throughout the school.

【North and South as one, fight the war of resistance together!】

【Supporting the Southern Front is supporting ourselves.】

【Born of the same mother, brothers fight together.】

【Defeat the Southern Monkeys, return our national territory.】

【Invaders must be eliminated.】

One banner after another, one declaration after another, made An Yinan's blood boil with excitement.

This is where the heart of the nation lies.

An Yinan returned to her dormitory, tidied up her things a little, and went to the cafeteria to buy some food.
