Transmigrated as the fake rich daughter, schemed by the reborn true rich daughter to go down to the countryside as an educated youth, living in poverty and destitution, short on food and necessitie...
"I have no objection. Comrade Xi Nian can just take care of the arrangements." The basement was empty, but she really didn't know whether there were other unknown dangers.
After getting their approval, Xi Nian made another phone call and said goodbye to them.
Yan Guofeng sat down on the sofa. "Comrade Wang, Comrade Gong, please leave the children to me. Please go to the kitchen and prepare some fruit snacks, juice, and tea."
"Okay, Mr. Yan." After handing the child to Yan Guofeng, Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi went to the kitchen together.
The two of them worked together and quickly prepared the fruits and juice, brewed tea, and picked up some snacks from the steamer and brought them out.
Knowing that the Yan family had something to discuss, they delivered the things and returned to the kitchen.
Yan Rushan brought juice and snacks to his wife, and also brought her a plate of fruit; the Yan family has a unique preference for fruit, so the amount of fruit served each time is always large, basically one plate per person.
"Do you know how many years that house has been in the compound?" Zhong Yuxiu asked the man beside her with a side glance after taking the juice and snacks.
"It's been here since I can remember. I remember people living there when I was a few years old. I don't know when it became deserted."
Yuxiu thought deeply. "So, that house hasn't been occupied for a long time. Why does the whitewash look almost new? Could it be that the logistics staff refreshes the walls every year?" No one lives there. Would the logistics staff refresh the walls of an unoccupied house every year? It was impossible.
Those were extremely difficult years, and even the residences of senior officials were only relatively good; who would spend energy and money on uninhabited houses?
Yan Guofeng held the tea, his eyebrows moving slightly.
Yan Rushan's eyes flickered slightly, "Logistics will definitely not do this!"
"That means there must be some hidden secret behind this. Living in the same compound, they were able to hide it from everyone. They painted that house and dug out such a huge basement. Their methods are extraordinary!"
"We don't need to worry about this matter. Xi will handle it during the annual meeting." Yan Guofeng suddenly said.
Zhong Yuxiu and Yan Rushan nodded gently, "We know, Grandpa, don't worry, we won't interfere."
"Well, let's eat." Yan Guofeng took a sip from the teacup and occasionally ate a piece of dessert, but his mind was drifting away.
Zhong Yuxiu enjoyed her meal and forgot about the house. Yan Rushan was relieved to see that she was not affected at all.
The days at home pass quickly, eating, drinking and playing with the children.
Three days passed in a flash, and Xi Nian came back and handed Zhong Yuxiu a key. "Comrade Zhong, the house has been cleared out. When would you like to come take a look? Oh, I forgot to tell you, the house is still the same. We've converted the basement into a laboratory for you. The equipment has been moved in, and we've made ventilation holes inside the lab, installed lots of lights, and even opened a skylight in the backyard."
Usually only the Yan family members go to the backyard, and other people will not go there unless necessary; it is very appropriate to open the skylight on the ground in the backyard.
Zhong Yuxiu nodded slightly after hearing this. "The basement is indeed suitable for a laboratory. It's spacious and there's no need to worry about the house being occupied."
"Yes, regarding the entrance and exit, would you like to arrange for security on your side, or should we arrange for someone to protect them?"
"There's no need to arrange for people to come in and protect the compound. The defensive doors at my Rushan Company will be ready for production in a few days. Once they're finished, they'll be used in the lab first, and then in Hongxing Village and the Medical Research Institute."
All necessary equipment must be provided.
Xi Nian was thinking hard. She had already said this much, and he couldn't really arrange for anyone to go in.
"Then we'll do as you say. Once the defensive gate is installed, I wonder if I'll have the honor of seeing it in person?"
"Of course you can. Comrade Xi Nian is very welcome to our home." It's just a set of defensive doors. After it's completed, the walls of the entrance and exit will definitely not be demolished; only another door will be installed inside.
"Then I'll be waiting." Xi Nianle smiled and asked her, "When are you planning to move? Do you have enough manpower?"
Zhong Yuxiu calculated the time and said, "Just these two days. We have a lot of things at home, so we can move them slowly. We don't need to waste your manpower and resources. However, I appreciate your kindness. Thank you for your kindness."
Xi Nian shook his head repeatedly, "That's being too formal. It's just arranging a few people to work for two days, it's not a big deal."
They were actually happy to be busy for Comrade Zhong Yuxiu for two days. Why? Because her existence itself is a legend!
Although he is a low-key person, the results of his research and development cannot be low-key.
When Xi Nian left, Zhong Yuxiu still refused to relent. She said many things in the house couldn't be touched by outsiders; it was best left to the family to clean up. Gu Lingguo and the others had been doing this for years, so it wouldn't hurt to let them know. At least, they were family and wouldn't betray her easily.
A week later, Yan Rushan first hired someone to clean the house, and then repaired what needed to be repaired; he started to do what needed to be renovated. After the renovation was completed, the house was left to dry for more than a month. When the company's defense doors were produced, Yan Rushan immediately arranged for someone to install a defense door in the basement.
Move in only after everything is arranged.
By now, Zhong Yuxiu has given herself a vacation for more than a month; during this period, Xi Jinping came many times, partly to give her an explanation that the termites in the compound were caught, but only one was caught, and the person behind it was never caught.
Secondly, I want to see how the decoration is here, so it’s a good idea to go there more often and show more interest.
Today, they moved in, and Xi Nian came to the compound again and went straight to their new home.
"Comrade Xi Nian is here. Is he free again today?" Zhong Yuxiu joked.
Xi Nian walked into the hall with a smile on his face. "Good afternoon, Mr. Yan, good afternoon, Comrade Zhong, good afternoon, Comrade Yan. Comrade Yan has installed the defense door, and I just came over to take a look. I hope I didn't disturb you."
"Good afternoon, Comrade Xi Nian. Come and sit down. Sorry to bother you." Yan Guofeng pointed to the long sofa on the right.
Xi Nian took a look, walked over and sat down, and said, "Did you change the sofa?"
"I changed it. This time I used solid wood and fabric, which makes it comfortable to live in." A new home brings a new look, so what needs to be changed needs to be changed.
"What about the sofa in your house?"
"It's still in that apartment. Ask the logistics staff if they'll take it. If not, we'll move it out and sell it. Even though that sofa set is used, it's still about 70% new, so it can be sold at a second-hand price." Zhong Yuxiu said, then paused. "If that doesn't work out, send it to my parents."
Zhong's parents have a good living condition now, but they are reluctant to spend hundreds of dollars to buy a set of sofas.
Send it to them, they will probably like it.
