Only children in Siheyuan make choices. I want them all.

"Please rest assured, Mr. Chen, I will never bring shame to the motherland. I will be at your house before dinner tonight." Zhang Jianjun patted his chest and promised.

"Okay! Remember to call your apprentice as well. That's all for now!" After saying that, Mr. Chen hung up the phone.

Zhang Jianjun was feeling very nervous at this time. These big guys asked him and his apprentice to go, probably to find out the inside story!

"What's wrong, Jianjun! What's the matter?" Yin Xinyue asked with a smile.

"It's okay! It's okay! I'm going to attend a party in the evening and won't eat at home. You can tell Mejibo." Zhang Jianjun said perfunctorily.

"Oh! You should tell Mejibo. After all, your appetite is almost as much as that of seven or eight people." Yin Xinyue deliberately smiled and joked.

Zhang Jianjun was not in the mood to joke at this moment. Instead, he sat on the sofa and began to think about how to deal with the dinner in the evening.

Soon it was noon and Megibo had prepared lunch. While everyone was eating, Lawrence hurried over.

Seeing Lawrence in such a hurry, Zhang Jianjun thought to himself: "Did something big happen?"

As soon as Lawrence entered the room, he went straight to the point and said anxiously, "Master, I just received news from the family that our competitors have already started to take action. They have begun mining gold!"

This news made Zhang Jianjun nervous, but he quickly calmed down, thought for a moment and asked: "What is the specific situation? What measures have they taken?"

Lawrence replied solemnly, "According to our understanding, they have sent many more armed personnel to provide security around the gold mine. People from our family can't even touch the edge of the gold mine. They don't even want to leave us a bite of soup."

Zhang Jianjun frowned and fell into deep thought. After a while, he asked tentatively: "Who did your Lawrence family offend? Why did they want to rob you of the gold mine?"

Lawrence spread his hands helplessly: "I don't know! All the original workers in our family were killed, and the gold mine was also robbed. I guess it was someone from the Rothschild or Louis Vuitton families."

Qin Jingru immediately shook her head when she heard that: "No! I don't agree with you going. Forget about such a dangerous thing. I'm afraid something might happen to you, Jianjun. The child can't be without a father."

Yin Xinyue also agreed: "Yes, Lawrence, this is too dangerous, right? Besides, your family can just send someone to take back the gold mine, why do you have to come to your master? This is a life-threatening business!"

Lawrence sighed, "We sent three groups of mercenaries but they all failed. Whoever can solve this problem will become the next patriarch of the Lawrence family, so I have to ask Master to help me with this."

Zhang Jianjun waved his hand nonchalantly: "Okay, I've made up my mind. Come with me to a party this afternoon. What time is our flight tomorrow?"

Lawrence explained, "The flight is at 11 o'clock tomorrow morning. We will go back to the Lawrence family first. After we are fully prepared, we can go to the gold mine."

Zhang Jianjun nodded when he heard this: "I have no objection! By the way, Lawrence, have you eaten? Do you want to eat something together?"

Lawrence scratched his head in embarrassment: "I haven't eaten yet! If I eat, you won't have enough to eat. I'd better go out to eat! After all, my appetite is scary now!"

Zhang Jianjun shook his head after hearing this: "It's okay! Let's eat together. If it's not enough, I'll go to the kitchen and make more!"

Lawrence didn't hesitate to say thank you and started eating.

After eating and drinking, Zhang Jianjun turned and went to the kitchen.

Lawrence asked curiously, "Master, why are you going to the kitchen? I'm full."

Zhang Jianjun replied angrily: "You are talking nonsense. We Chinese people believe in preparing for a rainy day. How can I feel at ease if you don't prepare some more food?"

Lawrence suddenly realized, "So that's it! Master, I won't say any more. I'll go to sleep for a while."

As the saying goes, if you don’t take a nap in the afternoon, you will collapse in the afternoon. Life is like three full meals and two empty stomachs a day.

Just when Zhang Jianjun was busy in the kitchen, Sha Zhu and Nan Yi walked into the kitchen with a list.

"Are you busy, brother Jianjun? We brought the list, can you see if you can get it?" Nan Yi handed over the note.

"And me! And me!" Sha Zhu said as he handed over the note.

"Two hundred kilograms of rice, two hundred kilograms of flour, thirty kilograms of pork, one pork hind leg, thirty kilograms of air-dried sausages, and fifty kilograms of beef. Nan Yi, are you crazy? Buying so much meat?" Zhang Jianjun said in surprise.

"My wife is about to give birth, right? We plan to make the beef into beef jerky, the pork into bacon, and the pork hind legs into ham. These things won't go bad for a long time. In case you can't come back in a short time, we should be prepared, right?" Nan Yi explained with a smile.

Zhang Jianjun didn't say anything, but looked at Sha Zhu's note again, which read 100 kilograms of rice, 100 kilograms of sorghum rice, 100 kilograms of flour, 200 kilograms of corn flour, 100 kilograms of beef, and 100 kilograms of pork.

Seeing Zhang Jianjun's bad face, Sha Zhu asked curiously: "Brother Jianjun, can you get it? Don't worry, we will pay!"

Zhang Jianjun explained helplessly, "It's not that I'm afraid you won't pay me, it's that you bought too much. My goodness, did you buy all the food for the whole year? Besides, aren't you two chefs? Just take some from the kitchen, and it'll be enough for you to eat."

After hearing what Zhang Jianjun said, Nan Yi and Sha Zhu both smiled helplessly: "Jianjun, you don't know, now is not like before, we could still take a little in the past, but now the factory is checking very strictly, and getting caught and having our wages deducted is a small matter, you may be fired directly! We dare not gamble!"

Zhang Jianjun didn't know what to say, so he could only nod and agree: "Okay! You guys wait outside the courtyard at 11 o'clock tonight, and I'll secretly give the things to you!"

Nan Yi hurriedly took out the money and said, "Jianjun, can you calculate how much it is? I'll give it to you now!"

Zhang Jianjun waved his hand: "Let's talk about it tonight. I'm busy now! Let's calculate it together tonight!"

Sha Zhu asked curiously: "What are you busy with? Cooking so many dishes? Your family can't finish them all!"

Zhang Jianjun had no choice but to lie: "I'm not eating this alone. I'm planning to reward the three armies today and cook a meal for my comrades. Several hundred people can definitely finish it!"

Nan Yi and Sha Zhu smiled and said, "Let us help you! It will be faster if three of us work together."

Zhang Jianjun didn't refuse after hearing this: "That's great, aren't you going to take a break at noon?"

Sha Zhu curled his lips when he heard this: "No need to rest, it's because you can't handle it alone, let's help each other."

Zhang Jianjun nodded: "Well said! Let's help each other! I'm leaving tomorrow, please help me take care of Qin Jingru and don't let Qin Huairu bully her."

Nan Yi patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, as long as we two brothers are here, no one can bully your sister-in-law, don't you think so?"

Sha Zhu made an OK gesture: "Of course! I will kill anyone who dares to bully my sister-in-law."

With the help of Sha Zhu and Nan Yi, cooking became much easier for Zhang Jianjun and he quickly prepared several large buckets of food.
