Chapter Eight: Unexpected Verification
After the two parted ways at the restaurant, An Songyu went to the front desk and asked someone else to come and eat with them.
She then worked until 10 p.m. before she could finally get a general overview of the work she was responsible for.
As for the more detailed information, she needs to figure it all out in the next two or three days.
There were just fewer people today; otherwise, given her current situation...
An Songyu couldn't guarantee that her work would be completed smoothly.
As I stepped out of the hotel, the streetlights outside cast a dim, yellowish glow.
An Songyu looked up at it for a while, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"An Songyu, what are you daydreaming about?" An Songxiang propped her bicycle up by the roadside, jogged over, and nudged her sister.
She arrived just in time to pick someone up.
But even though she clearly saw her sister come out, she stood at the hotel entrance looking up at somewhere in the distance.
They didn't even hear her soft call!
If it weren't for the grandeur of the Fairy Spring Hotel, An Songxiang would have already yelled at people!
An Songyu was jolted back to her senses by the push and smiled sheepishly.
Even when she saw An Songxiang's rather resentful expression, she still found her exceptionally cute because of her youthful and beautiful face.
So, she took her sister's hand and said with a touch of boldness:
"Let's go home now!"
An Songxiang was even more helpless!
Could it be that her sister's mind went mad from the news of the demolition?
That's why your behavior was so erratic today?
Despite her thoughts, An Songxiang's pace didn't slow down at all.
The two sisters took turns riding their bikes, and they got home faster than when they came at noon.
An Songyu entered the house and saw that almost everyone was present in the living room.
She was initially somewhat surprised.
But when I thought of the bomb I dropped on my family at noon today, my eyes lit up.
He didn't even put his canvas bag into the room before pulling out a chair to sit down.
However, it was An Songyue who came back after finishing her evening self-study session.
I had just finished washing up and said a brief greeting to my family when, like a wandering ghost, I drifted back to my room.
There are only a few months left until the college entrance examination.
Tonight, I endured the onslaught of two full exam papers once again.
She simply couldn't muster even a shred of extra curiosity.
The family also knew about the college entrance exam candidate's situation.
The topic they were about to discuss was also not suitable for others to hear.
So the family simply called out to each other and moved into the sisters' small room.
It was getting late.
An Jianping recounted what he had seen in the village that day.
He then lowered his voice and said:
"Although we can't confirm the authenticity of the news yet, Jianmin and I took a trip around the new district and we think there's a high chance that another logistics center will be built."
"The factories in the new district are almost all built, but most of the office buildings, fences, and other structures are still not finished."
"But... when we went there today, we took a quick look around and almost every factory was busy making preparations."
“In some factories, quite a few people are already working there.”
"The vehicles coming and going are mostly trucks."
"The newly built two-lane road seemed exceptionally spacious when we entered, but it appeared much narrower when a truck came along."
These are just some of the factories; most of them haven't even officially started production yet.
Production is really about to begin...
Thinking about this, the family couldn't help but look at each other.
"We have the day off tomorrow, except for light rain. Let's ask around some more." An Songlin pursed his lips before continuing:
“I’ll take Xuan Ying over there too.”
“You shouldn’t ask around!” An Jianping shook his head, directly rejecting his son’s suggestion.
"I'm going to go and sound out Lao Lu!"
"These kinds of things aren't easy to find out about these days."
"not to mention……"
At this point, An Jianping's feelings were somewhat complicated.
He was naturally overjoyed when he first heard the news about his daughter.
They were even solely focused on verifying the authenticity of the news.
After a calm afternoon, An Jianping was also somewhat bewildered.
Taking advantage of this news, it's certainly a good thing to start accumulating some wealth for your family early on.
Strictly speaking, it's not exactly a righteous or commendable thing.
But seeing the family waiting expectantly for him to continue, An Jianping reluctantly suppressed the complex thoughts in his heart:
"Everything you do must leave a trace!"
"If the demolition issue is fake, that's fine, but if it's real, we'll have a lot of work to do next."
"It's better to be more discreet in acquiring wealth through such means."
An Jianping's words left the rest of the family slightly stunned.
Before they could think it over, An Jianping spoke again:
"Boss, you... and Xiao Xuan, forget it, let's just do as you say!"
"As for Ayu, Axiang, and Lizhu, you should all continue as usual, going to work when you need to and taking leave when you need to!"
"In addition, I think the factories in the new district will be put into use soon."
"I've already spoken with your uncle, and he will continue to keep an eye on the situation in the new district."
"Once most of the factories in the new district start operating, it will be quite clear whether or not a logistics distribution center will be needed."
The people whose names were called exchanged glances and nodded obediently.
On the second day, An Songlin took a day off. As he said, he first took his fiancée Xuan Ying to the new district.
However, his main purpose was to take his wife back to his hometown.
I even took the opportunity to enjoy a nice stay at a farmhouse restaurant in the village.
An Songyu, along with the others, went to work and lived her life honestly.
Several days passed until it was An Songyu's turn to rest.
It took an investigation by the whole family to get results.
When the family reunited, the excitement they felt only increased, not decreased, compared to the previous times.
An Jianping glanced at his second daughter with satisfaction before speaking to the others with certainty:
“I confirmed with Lao Lu that a businessman from Hong Kong has indeed been staying on the top floor of the hotel recently.”
"I heard that person has a huge business in Hong Kong."
"After moving inland, we won't just develop in one city."
"The reason I came to Shuncheng this time is because the factory area in the south of the city is no longer sufficient."
"It just so happens that Shuncheng is not too far from Nancheng, which makes it convenient for him to build a new factory area."
“He had actually come quite a few times in the previous year.”
"He only stayed at your hotel for half a month recently because the new factory is almost ready to be put into use."
"By the way, I heard that he not only built a factory in the new district, but also some kind of design building?"
"It's one of the tallest buildings in the new district."
