Chapter 704: Eat Outside
If it was before, he would have refused immediately.
But now, sending his son here might be a good choice. It's not because Kyoto is unsafe, on the contrary, it's hard for something to go wrong in the Kyoto base. He has other reasons.
During the great evacuation before the end of the world, he put the headquarters first and failed to return in time to save his wife and son, which led to his wife's death.
His son still hates him for this incident.
It might be a good thing to send his son to Brother Liu, as Brother Liu could help him to comfort his son.
In addition, my son and Xiaoqing grew up together, so they can be happier here with the company of their friends.
"Okay, stop standing there. Go home first." Liu Ruide patted Wang Jie on the shoulder.
Wang Jie was stunned.
"Okay." Then he agreed.
This Brother Liu really didn't report his visit to Thunder Base to the higher-ups at Thunder Base.
After all, he was a division commander and was from Kyoto, but when he came here, not a single senior official from the Thunder Base came to greet him.
Brother Liu, does he really think he is just here to visit him?
Thinking of this, Wang Jie glanced at Liu Ruide. Was it intentional?
Liu Ruide pretended not to understand and walked towards the car.
Liu Qing hurried to drive the car.
In this way, the three of them took a car and headed towards Kangzhen Town.
The three accompanying officials from the headquarters who came from Kyoto followed behind the three-person car in their own car.
After driving for a while, the group arrived at the home of the Liu father and son.
This is a Western-style house with a great community environment, which made Wang Jie very envious.
"This Kang Town is quite lively. I just came here to see that there are many shops on the street." Wang Jie finally couldn't help but speak.
This small town seems to be no different from the time before the apocalypse. It is even more lively and prosperous than their Kyoto base.
"Your house is not cheap, is it?" Without waiting for Liu Ruide to answer, Wang Jie looked at the garden entrance gate of the Liu family's father and son.
This community is built on the edge of the town, with good transportation and a quiet environment inside. Even before the end of the world, it would be a very good place to live.
"Not bad." Liu Ruide's face showed a hint of pride.
"Given by the Thunder Army?" Wang Jie asked tentatively.
This house must be very expensive. With Brother Liu's salary, he definitely can't afford it in such a short time.
"No. The military was originally going to assign me a house, but not here." Liu Ruide walked to the sofa and sat down.
"This house was bought by your nephew." He glanced at Liu Qing.
Wang Jie was stunned.
When I looked at Liu Qing, I saw that he looked a little embarrassed. I was a little shocked that this was actually true.
"Haha. It's also thanks to Hall Master Leng's support and investment in my entertainment company that I was able to make some money." Liu Qing said embarrassedly.
Of course I made more than just some money, I made a lot.
The entertainment company he and Hall Master Leng opened is now the largest and most famous one in Thunder Base.
Nowadays, whether it is a store opening, a newlywed wedding or a cocktail party, their company employees are indispensable. Everyone is willing to spend money on happy events, and their profits are not low.
Wang Jie was a little surprised.
Didn’t his brother Liu dislike Xiaoqing from doing this business?
But it’s great that Xiaoqing can achieve this now.
"Can you still make money by opening an entertainment company at this time?" Wang Jie asked curiously.
It’s the end of the world. People can hardly get enough food. How many people would still enjoy entertainment consumption?
"Yes, we can make money. Our company has more than 80 people, and cases are scheduled for half a month later! We don't have to worry about business." Liu Qing said with a smile.
Wang Jie was stunned. He became more curious about Liu Qing's company.
"When can you take me to visit your company?" he asked.
I really want to go take a look, but I also want to see what the Thunder Base is like. I'll just take a look around first.
"Haha, anytime." Liu Qing laughed heartily.
Liu Ruide, who was standing by, had a glimmer of understanding in his eyes.
"Don't worry, it's almost noon. Have lunch and go in the afternoon." Liu Ruide said.
"Yes-yes." Wang Jie said hurriedly.
Then, as if he remembered something, he took out several large gifts from his space ring and placed them on the coffee table.
"I brought you some special products from Kyoto. There aren't many left from before the end of the world!" Wang Jie said with a smile, "There are two bottles of wine in it. I can't even bear to drink them myself."
Liu Ruide was stunned and looked at Liu Qing.
Liu Qing took a look at the gift package brought by Wang Jie, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
"Thank you, Uncle Wang. Just come if you want to, why do you bring gifts? We are not outsiders." Liu Qing walked forward, put away the gift and took it aside.
Wang Jie looked at Liu Qing's actions with a reluctant look in his eyes.
These are the best things he has kept in his closet.
After the end of the world, supplies are in short supply. Although some food supplies can be purchased outside now, the quantity is difficult to guarantee.
As for ready-made snacks and drinks, they are even more scarce and it is difficult to buy them even if you have enough money.
Liu Ruide looked at Wang Jie, "I'm too lazy to cook at home, let's go to Kangzhen to eat. In the afternoon, let Xiaoqing take you to his company to have a look, so that you, as his uncle, can give him some advice."
This was of course a polite remark, which gave Wang Jie enough face.
Let him guide his son's company? Come on, does he have the ability to do that? Give him a chance, let the two of them take him to experience the prosperity of the Thunder Base.
As for the three headquarters officials brought by Wang Jie, they left long after arriving in Kang Town. Wang Jie and his group were more anxious and concerned than he thought...
"Okay! Okay!" Wang Jie quickly agreed with a smile.
The three of them chatted in the living room for a while, and when the time was almost up, Liu Ruide decided to go out.
Then the three of them walked to Kangzhen Street.
After leaving the community and walking on the bustling streets, Wang Jie felt as if he had returned to the time before the end of the world.
When Wang Jie saw that there were many local specialty shops on the street producing large quantities of preserved fruits, meat jerky and even fine wine, his face looked a little abnormal.
If there were only one or two stores like this, he could still comfort himself and think that these were face-saving stores that the Thunder Base had worked hard to set up in order to make outsiders coming to Kang Town have a good impression of Kang Town.
But there are not just one or two such shops, but the whole street is full of them!
Moreover, his good nephew also told him that there used to be a street here that was a special wholesale market, and more than half of the shops on that street were owned by the Leng family.
Many people from outside who come to buy goods go directly there to see the goods and place orders! The daily trading crystal cores are almost astronomical!
In addition, the business received there is still less than 100,000 tons of goods. Only a single business of more than 100,000 tons of a single category is eligible to meet with Leng's sales department for a contract.
In short, he heard only one sentence, why didn't Leng go to heaven? Naturally, he didn't believe it.
But let’s not talk about these for now. What’s bothering him now is whether he can get back the gift he gave to the Liu family?
