Survival in the apocalypse: I became rich through farming games
Chapter 229 Mr. Shao
Hu Jianfa was sitting on the sofa talking to Hu Yexuan when the door opened. The housekeeper came in with two large bags of things. He didn't know what he was thinking and got distracted. When he entered, he almost kicked the low cabinet at the door.
He cleared his throat, looking a little dissatisfied with the other party's absence. He thought of the material warehouse and asked nervously, "Old Zhang, are the things okay?"
Butler Zhang came to his senses, first grabbed the alcohol on the shoe cabinet and sprayed it on himself, and then took a thermometer gun to measure his temperature.
There was a "beep--" sound, and the thermometer gun showed thirty-six degrees three, which was a normal body temperature.
The housekeeper felt relieved and nodded to Hu Jianfa, "Sir, I was just about to tell you that there is something going on at the warehouse."
For a moment, Hu Jianfa felt that his body was icy and his hair stood on end. At this time, the butler's words continued to come.
"There is no problem with the things for the time being, but today I met Director Wei from the material exchange center. He did not change jobs before, but was admitted to the hospital with an infection. When we met today, he kept coughing. I don't know if he has recovered."
As the housekeeper said, Hu Jianfa's brows wrinkled slightly.
None of them wear masks at home. Although the epidemic is now under good control, the tense situation some time ago still makes people feel a little embarrassed and fearful.
"Don't worry, I will stay in the room for the next two days, and I have one more thing to report." The housekeeper paused, "I heard from Director Wei that the Ye family and the Shao family are moving materials out of the warehouse and preparing to store them in Somewhere else.”
Wei Duocai didn't give his name directly. The factory at the door referred to Ye Buqing, but the latter sentence was the opposite of Ye Buqing. The housekeeper thought about it all the way, and didn't realize what he meant until he saw the house number at the door of his home.
Ye Buqing was from the 20th building, and being against her might not mean being against her, but being against her in another sense.
For example, twenty buildings, in turn, become twelve buildings.
Buildings 11 and 12 in the villa area are all houses owned by the Shao family.
The Ye family and the Shao family are both big families in the Jiang City base. Compared to the Ye family, a rising force, the Shao family actually has more prestige among the wealthy people in the villa area.
But, how could that little girl Ye Buqing and the Shao family get involved?
"Shao family? Could it be that that silly boy Shao Yihan really succeeded!" Hu Yexuan frowned and murmured.
"What do you mean?" Hu Jianfa glanced at his son.
"Shao Yihan and Ye Buqing from the Shao family have known each other before. When Ye Ting went to the Shao family for afternoon tea last time, she heard Shao Jingyi say that they have a good relationship. The Shao family was burglarized before, and it was Ye Buqing who helped...could it be Ye Buqing really likes a young boy like Shao Yihan?" Hu Yexuan said at the end, thinking of Shao Yihan and Ye Buqing's merciless neglect and back view of him, his expression became very ugly.
This is actually very funny to say. The incident of being broken into and robbed can be regarded as the dark history of the Shao family. The family kept silent about it. As more and more people moved into the villa area, most of them were old acquaintances, Shao People at home won’t even mention it.
Shao Jingyi felt that she had been humiliated at first, and she hid the matter very well. Unfortunately, she couldn't handle the fact that more and more people came to inquire about Ye Buqing's news, and they gathered around Shao Jingyi to praise her. The excitement was overwhelming, and for a while, having an intersection with Ye Buqing became a source of pride for her.
Shao Jingyi could not tell the details of the beating. She only said that when her family was in trouble, Ye Buqing came down from the sky to help. She meant something, and by exaggerating it in words, Ye Buqing's help became evidence of the close friendship between the two families.
The two fathers and sons fell silent at the same time on the sofa. For a long time, Hu Jianfa raised his head and said to the housekeeper, "You go back to your room to rest first, and let the nanny prepare a gift for me."
"Dad, are you going out?" Hu Yexuan asked.
"I have to go to Shao's house to find out the truth."
----------
After the housekeeper returned to the room, the nanny came over and disinfected the door. She was not usually responsible for interpersonal relationships, and was a little unsure about what gifts to prepare. She went in and out of the storage room several times, returned to the living room, and asked the person sitting in the room. The two people on the sofa said, "Where are you going, sir? If you go next door, I will bring today's freshly made soup."
Hu Jianfa was just bored. Hearing the nanny's cautious question, he couldn't help but lost his temper and scolded the nanny for not learning anything after being here for so long. She even had to ask about things like preparing gifts!
However, the nanny is usually responsible for cleaning and eating. She wanders around the kitchen and every corner of the house all day long. She will not learn this kind of thing at all. Hu Jianfa is not happy and will lose his temper at every opportunity. The nanny feels wronged. When I walked back to the kitchen, my back was hunched more than usual.
"Yexuan, go pick something similar and go to Shao's house with me." Hu Jianfa pushed his son beside him, got up and walked to the door.
"Then take the box of bird's nests in the cabinet?" Hu Yexuan asked.
"Yes." Hu Jianfa nodded, opened the shoe cabinet and picked out a pair of handmade leather shoes.
In the villa area, the distance was not far, so the father and son did not drive. Hu Yexuan followed Hu Jianfa with a box of bird's nests, falling a little behind.
They didn't say hello on this trip, which was actually very rude. When the Shao family's housekeeper came to open the door, he looked puzzled, as if he suspected there was something wrong with his memory. The Hu family had made an appointment in advance for today's visit.
It's past ten o'clock, and the Shao family has already had breakfast and is passing the time chatting in the living room.
The housekeeper said to Hu Jianfa, "Please wait in the yard. There are desserts over there. They were all bought in the morning. I'll go in."
This arrangement is considered thoughtful, but it cannot be called very enthusiastic.
If you really welcome the guests, will you hang them out in the yard?
But this was not the time to dwell on this matter. Hu Jianfa kept thinking about the news that the Shao family and the Ye family had transferred supplies. Although he felt a little depressed, he smiled and nodded to the housekeeper.
The two of them did not go to sit in the yard, but waited for the housekeeper to come again.
In the Shao family's living room, Mr. Shao was drinking milk that the nanny had just made. During the previous physical examination, the doctor asked him to take a calcium supplement. During this time, a glass of milk in the morning and evening has become a habit.
When the housekeeper came in, because Shao Yihan hadn't gotten up yet, Shao's father went upstairs to clean up the people again, so the matter fell into the hands of Mr. Shao.
"What's the matter?" Mr. Shao blew the layer of milk foam in the cup, and then took a sip.
"Old sir, the Hu family is here and waiting in the yard now," the housekeeper said.
"Hu family? Who is here?"
"Mr. Hu and Mr. Hu's son brought a gift box."
Mr. Shao smiled coldly, took the lid of the cup on the table, and handed the milk to the butler, "I won't have time to drink it in a while, so put it in the insulator."
The housekeeper took the milk and went to the kitchen. When he came back, Mr. Shao had already wiped the corners of his mouth.
"Let people come in." Mr. Shao said.
--------
Hu Jianfa and his son waited outside for five or six minutes before the housekeeper finally came out and welcomed them in.
When he entered the house and saw Mr. Shao, Hu Jianfa's heart skipped a beat.
Before the rainstorm, Mr. Shao no longer cared much about the company's affairs. In his opinion, the newly appointed Mr. Shao was mediocre in ability. Hu Jianfa often felt that he was no worse than Mr. Shao. Even if he was worse, it was only one difference. Because of his background, he dared to inquire about some information in front of Mr. Shao.
But if the person you are facing is this old Mr. Shao, it will be different! Among the older generation, this man is one of the best, shrewd, wise, and far-sighted. He is trying to make a fool of himself by playing tricks in front of Mr. Shao.
After entering the door, Hu Jianfa's face was very flattering. He raised his voice, laughed and walked up to say hello, saying: "Mr. Shao, it's been a long time since I visited you. How are you recently?"
Hu Yexuan followed Hu Jianfa with a concerned smile on his face.
Why couldn't Mr. Shao see that this was just politeness? He leaned on the sofa, smiled and nodded at the two of them, "Sit down."
After Hu Jianfa sat down, he started chatting about everyday things. After more than ten minutes, he probably realized that he couldn't wait for the person he really wanted to see despite procrastinating, so he couldn't sit still.
"Old sir, my housekeeper went to the warehouse this morning and discovered something. I came here just to talk to you." Hu Jianfa gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Oh? What's the matter?" Mr. Shao remained motionless, with neither surprise nor genuine doubt on his face.
"My housekeeper said that someone in our supplies warehouse is infected. I don't know if it will affect the supplies. We have deposited all our wealth in it. If something goes wrong..." Hu Jianfa stopped talking at the right time, with a smile on his face. Make a worried expression.
"Is there such a thing? Our Jiang City base is still very reliable. Xiao Hu, are you overthinking it?" Mr. Shao asked slowly and leisurely.
Hu Jianfa's expression became extremely dejected at that moment.
