Chapter 1120 Pillars of the Nation
Seeing the two regimental commanders getting out of the car, Li Mo'er hurried over to greet them, saying with a smile, "It's truly an honor to have Commander Qian of the North Sea Fleet and Commander Zheng of the East Sea Fleet grace my small company with their presence at its opening! Please come inside!"
Both regimental commanders showed surprised expressions. Regimental Commander Qian of the North Sea Fleet said, "I didn't expect that Deputy Regimental Commander Li would remember us. He must be young; his memory is really good! I am here on behalf of Commander Ma and Political Commissar Tang of the North Sea Fleet to congratulate Deputy Regimental Commander Li on his grand opening. In addition, our Commander Ma asked me to express our gratitude on behalf of the North Sea Fleet for providing us with so many advanced warships!"
Commander Zheng of the East China Sea Fleet also said, "On behalf of Commander Qiao and Political Commissar Tang of the East China Sea Fleet, I wish Commander Li a very prosperous opening. Commander Qiao also asked me to express our gratitude to you on behalf of the East China Sea Fleet. Our commander also said that he hopes that when Deputy Commander Li passes by our East China Sea Fleet, he can stop his aircraft and have a cup of tea. In addition, the brothers at the radar station have eaten quite a lot of rice. How about considering providing our East China Sea Fleet with some grain and pork?"
Li Mo'er chuckled after hearing this. This Commander Qiao was really interesting. She often airdropped some food to the officers and soldiers at the radar station, partly because she saw that their food was really not good, but mainly because she wanted to amuse them. She didn't expect that the East China Sea Fleet would find out about this.
However, since the commander of a fleet has spoken up, we should give them some face and send them some food when the time is right.
Li Mo'er nodded and said, "No problem, it's a small matter. I will definitely go if I have the chance."
Upon hearing this, Regiment Commander Zheng was overjoyed. He saluted Li Mo'er and said, "On behalf of all the officers and soldiers of the East China Sea Fleet, I thank Deputy Regiment Commander Li for the donation of grain. You have no idea, we eat sorghum buns and cornbread every day, and everyone suffers from constipation. Since you have agreed, I will definitely tell all our officers and soldiers this good news when I get back."
Upon hearing this, Li Mo'er exclaimed, "Good heavens! I'm stuck here! I can't refuse to deliver it now. Fine, a gentleman's word is as good as his bond. Since I promised, I have to keep my word. At worst, I'll just have to work a little harder and harvest the grain in my space as soon as it's ripe. I'll deliver the grain to Forget-Worry Island a little later." She mentally entered her space and looked at the hundreds of acres of wheat that were almost ripe and the rice that had already started to head.
After thinking for a moment, Li Mo'er said to Commander Zheng, "Here's what we'll do: next Saturday at noon, you all need to arrive at the island where we received the warships last time. Don't be early. Remember, bring several warships!"
Commander Zheng was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Commander Li, rest assured, we will definitely arrive on time, neither early nor late."
She turned to Commander Qian of the North Sea Fleet and said, "You must arrive at that island on Sunday. Remember, I won't wait for you if you're late!"
The two regimental commanders were overjoyed. Not only had they completed the task assigned by the commander, but they had also secured sponsorship for the fleet. It was truly a win-win situation.
The two group leaders entered the hall hand in hand, chatting and laughing, and were led to a private room by the restaurant staff.
Li Mo'er was certain that no one else would come after her this time, so she planned to walk in. She had only taken a few steps when she was startled to stop by the sound of brakes behind her.
Turning around and looking up, I saw another military vehicle parked at the gate, and a young man got out of it.
Li Mo'er thought for a moment before remembering who this young man was. He was none other than her godfather's orderly.
She walked back a few steps toward the orderly, who then approached Li Mo'er and said, "Deputy Director Li Mo'er, the two senior leaders have important matters to attend to today and cannot leave. They specifically instructed me to bring two calligraphy pieces for you to accept."
He took the framed plaque from the car. One of the plaques read "A Pillar of the Nation, You Deserve the Title," and was signed by his godfather.
Another piece, inscribed with the words "With lofty aspirations, soar across the vast sky," was signed by another elderly man.
Li Mo'er gestured for Chen Zhihao to take one of the paintings, then took one herself and said to the orderly, "Please thank the two old leaders for me. I'll visit them when I have time!"
