Chapter 308 Like a Fool
There were no outsiders around, so Cui Xian asked Yu Shui, "Why did you guys take so long to get out of breath when you came back?"
Yu Shui glanced at Cui Xian and said unhappily, "Yinhe and I took them downstairs and told them to go up by themselves, but they refused, saying it was so dark and scary! Damn it, we are all grown men, and you are afraid of Yinhe and me, but we are not afraid?
We both endured it and took the man to the room, preparing to leave, but they stopped us and wouldn't let us go, saying that we were there to provide service and that we had to help him carry his luggage up. If we didn't, they would complain and accuse us of dereliction of duty.
At that time, I really wanted to walk away. Which receptionist would wait in the community before dawn? Maybe we were the only ones who were stupid enough!
In this matter, I, Yu Shui, have a clear conscience!
But Li Yinhe pulled me aside and said that it was not easy for the other person who had been waiting outside for more than two hours, so we should help if we could.
What else? This is the first person I've received a call from. Try not to cause trouble before you understand the situation.
So we had to help carry the luggage, one trip after another, from the first floor to the eleventh floor! If we had electricity and could take the elevator, it wouldn't be a big deal, but we had to climb the stairs! It would be exhausting even without luggage, let alone carrying things.
That person didn’t have much luggage, so we moved it all in three trips. Otherwise, Yinhe and I would have been stuck in that building and couldn’t come back.”
Li Yinhe nodded, "Indeed, my legs are still shaking now!"
Cui Xian asked curiously, "Did you really find something wrong?"
Li Yinhe shook her head. "I just think that most people wouldn't speak so harshly. I'm afraid he has a background or something, so I won't cause trouble for myself."
Cui Xian nodded, thinking that there was nothing wrong with this consideration.
The few of them did not discuss this topic any further. After the steamed buns were heated up, they ate them with salted eggs until they were half full. After drinking a bowl of ginger and sugar water, they began to feel warm.
Chen Qing came back not long after he left. As soon as he entered the tent, he saw everyone sitting by the stove in a lazy manner.
"You're pretty quick. You brought the person to the bottom of the building and came back?" Yu Shui asked.
"No, why don't you send the person into the house?" Chen Qing replied.
Yu Shui's curiosity was piqued. "What about the luggage?"
"In the car!" Chen Qing was a little confused and looked at Yu Shui as if he was a fool. "Why don't we move it when the power comes back on?"
Yu Shui covered his face, I really feel like a fool...
The others laughed secretly, and then saw Shen Yanming holding a steamed bun and a salted egg and handing it to Chen Qing, "Everyone has eaten, you should also eat something to fill your stomach."
Chen Qing didn't answer, "I had breakfast this morning."
"You can continue to eat. If you really don't want to eat, just put it away and eat it when you are hungry." Shen Yanming did not take it back and still held the bowl in front of Chen Qing.
Chen Qing rubbed his hands, took the bowl, stood up and put the steamed buns into his lunch box, then said to Shen Yanming: "Thank you!"
Chen Yanming waved his hand, "It's my duty, you're welcome."
The sky outside was getting brighter and brighter, and the fire in Yu Shui's stove was burning brightly.
Shen Yanming put one of the red-hot coal balls into the stove he received from the guard team, then added new coal balls to both stoves, placing one inside the tent and the other outside the tent.
After daybreak, Yu Shui took Cui Xian to the property management of Jiarun Community, found the person in charge and borrowed a table from them. It took a lot of effort to move the table to the tent.
Bi Qiaoan took out the QR code from her bag and stuck it on the table.
After that, cars came one after another. Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan checked the information outside the tent, and then Shui and the others took the people to the designated accommodation.
It was not until half past eleven that a bus came from a distance. Two or three minutes later, the bus stopped right next to the tent.
The car door opened and forty or fifty people got out of the car one after another, young and old, all looking tired.
Bi Qiaoan took the initiative to ask, "Excuse me, are you residents coming from Beiha City?"
The person who got off the car first nodded and said, "Are you the people who will receive us? Where is the room assigned to us? We are so tired after all this journey!"
Bi Qiaoan said: "Please line up and take out your ID cards. I need to verify your information, and then our staff will take you to your room to rest."
Everyone was quite cooperative and lined up when they heard what Bi Qiaoan said.
Because there were many people this time, Bi Qiaoan wrote down the name of the community, building number, unit number, and room number of each person he/she lived in on a small piece of paper, clearly, and then handed it to the person.
In addition, each resident is asked to scan the QR code and be added to the group, so that it is convenient to notify if anything happens in the future.
After checking, Bi Qiaoan discovered that they were actually assigned to different apartment buildings in the same community.
Bi Qiaoan told Yu Shui and Li Yinhe about the situation, and then they prepared to take everyone to find a room.
But just as he was about to say this, someone interrupted him, "Well, our luggage hasn't arrived yet. It will probably take another ten minutes. Can we wait here for a while?"
Yu Shui nodded, "Okay, everyone, please rest for a while. We will set off again after the luggage arrives. Anyone who wants to drink water can come over here. We have prepared ginger sugar water for everyone."
Yu Shui discovered that several people's eyes lit up when they heard the words "ginger sugar water". They took out water cups from their bags and handed them to Yu Shui, who then filled them up with a spoon.
Alas, it is really inconvenient to use a spoon to fill a cup with water. If you are not careful, the water will flow out.
Fortunately, no one cared, otherwise the sticky cup wall would be really unbearable.
After they were done, there was not much water left in the pot, so Shen Yanming took out the thermos from the tent and filled it with water, then put some brown sugar, red dates and ginger slices in it.
"Your service is really great!" a girl exclaimed.
Bi Qiaoan smiled and said, "As you should. It's not easy for you to come from so far away!"
"That's not what I meant. We just sat in the car and didn't do anything. I thought we would be completely in the dark here, but I didn't expect such a warm welcome." The girl said gratefully.
"It is our job to receive you. Besides, we will be together for several months. We are your administrators!"
"Speaking of which, why aren't we managed by the property management or the community?"
“Because your registered residence is not here, you are only staying here temporarily due to the climate. When the weather gets warmer, you will return to Beiha City, so there is no need to add to their workload.
So, after some research, we, the reception staff, will be responsible for managing you.”
Bi Qiaoan explained the reason based on his own understanding, then continued with a smile: "Rather than saying that we manage you, it's better to say that we serve you."
