Li Xin'er was initially laughing as she watched them act silly, but then she noticed Ranran and Wenwen at her table, and the two children's expressions were perfectly synchronized.
His mouth was slightly open, he hadn't even had time to chew the food in his mouth, and his face was full of blankness, curiosity, and confusion.
Li Xin'er then realized that the two children were talking in a foreign language, which they hadn't understood.
Ranran is fine; she has a cheerful personality and is very curious. However, Wenwen, due to her own reasons, feels like she doesn't fit in with the others and is somewhat awkward and nervous.
In that instant, Li Xin'er suddenly realized a problem: since they were in China, they would be interacting with Chinese people from now on, and it wouldn't be a long-term solution for Zhan Yi and his team to keep speaking a foreign language.
Li Xin'er spoke her mind immediately and said to Carl:
“Carl, from now on, all of you will have to learn Chinese.”
As she spoke, she glanced at the vultures and their companions, and continued in Chinese:
"From now on, everyone must speak Chinese. I don't care if we're abroad, but within China, it's mandatory."
Her arrangement was made not only because they would help her with tasks in the future and because she needed to interact with the Chinese people, but also because...
Another reason is the simplest and most direct one: to make it understandable for Wenwen and Ranran.
She doesn't feel that there's any language that she absolutely has to learn besides her mother tongue, unless there's a specific need to learn it.
But given the current situation, Wenwen can barely speak, let alone learn a new language. Besides, she would be better off learning real skills and survival skills to ensure she can survive in this apocalypse even without her.
Her tone was serious, and Vulture and the others realized they weren't joking, so they dropped their previous nonchalant attitude.
"Okay, Sister Xin."
They readily agreed verbally, but inside they were all on the verge of tears, knowing the power of the Chinese language.
I've tried learning it before, and to quote the golden eagle from back then, it was said that...
Learning Chinese is harder than just giving him an AK and having him single-handedly wipe out the entire Saka clan...
Qin Siye sat at the same table as Vulture and his group. After spending just a short time together, he was able to talk to them, so he naturally chimed in:
"I can help with that."
Upon hearing this, the cassowary beside him eagerly grabbed his free hand and squeezed it tightly.
"I'm counting on you, brother!"
Carl was talking to Li Xin'er and hadn't had a chance to interact with Qin Siye yet. Upon hearing this, he glanced at Qin Siye in surprise.
Qin Siye happened to sense something and looked up.
The two locked eyes instantly, calmly nodded to each other as a friendly greeting, and then subtly looked away.
Qin Siye lowered his head and continued eating, thinking to himself.
Like the cassowaries and Ali, the vultures and their companions looked fierce and possessed a kind of intimidating nature, but once you got to know them, they were surprisingly straightforward and friendly.
Carl, whom they called their boss, possessed a powerful aura of authority. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, as if nothing in front of him could escape his notice.
As Qin Siye pondered, he suddenly felt a little lost and discouraged. He felt that compared to Carl and the others, he seemed somewhat inferior.
Seeing that he hadn't picked up any food for a while, Chef Sun greeted him with a smile:
"Xiao Qin, don't be shy, help yourself to whatever you like to eat."
Qin Siye snapped out of his thoughts and nodded repeatedly, "Okay."
They sat at one table, while Li Xin'er and Sister Xia sat at a separate table with their two children. Watching everyone eating and chatting happily, Qin Siye suddenly felt very relaxed.
He encouraged himself, telling himself it was okay; he could learn what he didn't know, and he would try his best to do better if he wasn't good enough.
He will not let Sister Xin down.
Li Xin'er had no idea that someone could brainwash themselves just by having lunch...
Not long after lunch, Lu Chen arrived with the list of supplies. Lu Jin'an didn't come this time, but brought Assistant Wang. In addition, there was someone Li Xin'er had never seen before.
Lu Chen took the initiative to introduce Li Xin'er:
"This is Qi Hongshen, the current base commander of the S City base, also known as Division Commander Qi."
Qi Hongshen had long been curious about Li Xin'er, but he hadn't had a suitable opportunity to approach her without going through Lu Chen.
He took a step forward and extended his hand to Li Xin'er. "Miss Li, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Li Xin'er nodded slightly and reached out to touch it in response, "Hello."
Since Lu Chen brought the base commander along, it seems he intends to put this supply transaction on the base's tab. He truly is a shrewd old fox in business.
Lu Chen learned of Carl's return immediately, so he wasn't surprised at all when he saw Carl and even greeted him with a smile.
After finishing his meal, Carl washed up, shaved, and changed into clean clothes.
When talking to Lu Chen, Li Xin'er specially called him over to let him participate and understand the process, and then she would entrust him with many things in the future.
As for Li Xin'er herself, although she aspires to expand her business, she doesn't want to worry about these trivial matters every day. She'd rather spend that time traveling around.
Inside the RV's living room, Lu Chen handed a thick stack of lists to Li Xin'er, saying politely:
"These are the supplies we need this time. Please take a look."
After taking the medicine, Li Xin'er glanced at it and found that the quantity was at least five times that of the last batch, including all kinds of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
She could understand things like cotton-padded clothes and quilts for keeping warm, rice, flour, vegetables, meat, and even diesel and gasoline. But what about honeycomb briquettes?
