220 A long day of long journey
â—Ž "Get lost!!!"â—Ž
Xie Yu felt a headache when he heard Xue Qian's words.
In order to collect enough business cards to exchange for supplies, they have been stranded in Gaosheng City for the past few days, and repeatedly asked runners
to come. Not only are the runners different every time, but no matter whether they are men, women, or children, as long as they are runners, they are ridiculously strong.
Xie Yu has long lost his original thoughts. He thought that the base commander and the captains must have seen that this store is not ordinary, but he heard such a brainless proposal.
The base commander finished a strawberry mille-feuille in a few bites, took out a handkerchief from his suit pocket and wiped his hands gently, shaking his head slowly: "After watching for so many days, you should have realized that the errand shop is not an ordinary shop. There must be an extraordinary force behind it. None of the errand runners are useless, and the shop owner who can easily gather so many capable people is definitely not an incompetent person."
An Xia said unwillingly: "Then we will go back like this?"
Xue Qian was also unwilling: "Don't you have any way? Gaosheng City is adjacent to Jinyao City. If we let this shop continue to develop, it will affect our base in the future."
The base commander took out another box of snacks from the paper bag. This time it was orange-flavored cream puffs. Biting open the soft and slightly tough puff skin, The cream with the fragrance of citrus melts on the tip of the tongue like snow, and the sweet and dense sweetness makes people linger.
"This snack is just right, you should try it too."
An Xia almost couldn't suppress her annoyance: "Base Commander, I think Xue Qian is right. The errand shop will indeed affect the development of our base."
The base commander ate the snack slowly, raised his eyelids and glanced at An Xia: "Xiao An is good in everything, but she is impatient. When she gets impatient, her bad temper comes out, and she has no femininity at all."
An Xia clenched her fists, but because the other party was the base commander, she bit her lower lip and didn't say anything.
The base commander finished a whole box of cream puffs, and his sweets/addiction was relieved, Turning his head to look at the dilapidated street outside the car window, his calm voice hinted at some excitement: "Who wouldn't want such a magical store? But if you really want to get the store, you can't be impatient or reckless. If you rush in as you said, even if those monster-like runners are not here, it will be difficult to deal with it."
Xue Qian frowned: "What should we do?"
The base commander waved his hand gently: "No hurry. I haven't met the young man you mentioned in the past two days. Female boss, I want to meet her first."
Xie Yu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. The base commander was still relatively calm and said casually: "Lu Yao is also very strong. The first time we asked him to run errands was when we went to the hospital, and it was the store owner who took the order."
An Xia was angry when she thought of that incident: "That day, she took the instructor away as well."
The base commander thought of Lu Mingxiao, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "Is she really Lu Mingxiao's girlfriend?"
Xue Qian stared at the base commander meaningfully.
The base commander's name is Cui Fengshi, 32 years old, a young and ambitious man.
In the messy base, Cui Fengshi can succeed as the base commander, and he is definitely not an upright good man.
Hope Base was just built not long ago, and once encountered a large zombie tide.
The original base commander died in that zombie tide, and the base then urgently elected a new base commander.
This happened about a month and a half ago.
In fact, if Lu Mingxiao had the idea, he could have been fully qualified for the position of base commander.
But Lu Mingxiao was not interested in this.
After Cui Fengshi became the base commander, he still trusted and respected Lu Mingxiao on the surface, but he still had a grudge against him in private.
Xue Qian didn't know why Cui Fengshi specifically mentioned the relationship between Lu Yao and Lu Mingxiao, and always felt that he might be thinking of some tricks.
An Xia: "Base commander, when are you going to find Lu Yao?"
Cui Fengshi prepared to get off the car: "Now."
Cui Fengshi brought Xue Qian, Xie Yu and two men with better skills to accompany him, leaving An Xia to look after the fleet.
In the errand shop, the last two customers got the redeemed items and left contentedly. Lu
Yao glanced at the time and it was already the usual time for the store to get off work. She patted Ding Qing on the shoulder and said, "The Mid-Autumn Festival gifts given to the store employees are in the warehouse. The names are written on the boxes. Don't forget to take them when you leave."
Ding Qing sighed, her voice still a little hoarse, "I thought that by now, there was nothing worth missing. But today I was busy in the store all day and saw so many people coming to the store with old business cards to exchange things. They came trembling and left with smiles. Even if life is so hard, there is always someone who can be happy and sad with you. Thinking of my parents and him, if... if we had met you earlier, how great it would be."
Lu Yao wanted to say something to comfort her, but he couldn't speak easily.
After a long silence, she whispered, "Let's have dinner together in the store tonight before going back."
Ding Qing shook her head, "The group is making a fuss, fighting for the chance to have dinner with you tonight, I won't compete with them."
Lu Yao's face changed slightly, "Really?"
Last year, she almost died after eating four meals a day.
This year, she is really fair, she wants to eat ten meals.
Seeing Lu Yao's extremely terrified expression, Ding Qing couldn't help but curl her lips, turned around and walked towards the office, and came out holding a cardboard box with her name on it.
"I'll go back and cook, and then play with the well-received treasure map in the evening. Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, shop owner!"
Lu Yao looked at Ding Qing's thin yet strong back, and said sincerely: "Ding Qing, happy Mid-Autumn Festival!" Ding
Qing's residence is next to Tang Anqi's house, and she installed the same roller shutter as her neighbor.
Under the roller shutter, there is also a thick glass door.
The residence was cleaned up the day before yesterday, and Lu Yao came personally to help reinforce the residence.
Ding Qing saw the owner holding a strange cane similar to a magic wand, drawing circles on the doors, windows and walls.
She didn't feel any difference before and after, but the owner said that it had been reinforced, so she felt relieved.
Ding Qing was more vigilant. When she returned to her residence after get off work, the first step was to pull down the roller shutter and lock the two doors downstairs.
She was used to putting useful things on the second floor, and she also ate and slept there.
There were beds, a bathroom, and a not particularly wide window on the attic.
Outside the window, the original owner had welded a thick anti-theft net.
Ding Qing usually opened the window and ate by the window.
She didn't cook every day. She would take out her precious gas stove and cook something when she was in the mood.
Today was a holiday, but Ding Qing had no intention of cooking.
She sat down by the window, opened the curtains a palm's width, and opened the gift box distributed by the errand shop in the little light.
The box didn't look big, but it was filled with a lot of things.
In addition to the Mid-Autumn Festival moon cake gift box for employees of the shopping street that all employees had, there were also treasure map props, two pounds of fresh pork and beef, two handfuls of thick and thin noodles, two handfuls of small greens, one Chinese cabbage, two lettuces, a few cucumbers, tomatoes, green peppers, and eggs, as well as four apples, a bunch of grapes, four bananas, and a cantaloupe.
Ding Qing took all the things out of the box and filled the window.
Finally, she stuck her head into the carton, trying to figure out the magical structure of the carton. It seemed that there was nothing special about it.
But the holiday gifts from the store were enough for her to eat for a month if she used them sparingly.
The mooncake gift boxes for employees of the shopping street this year are much simpler than last year.
Twelve mooncakes from different stores are neatly packed in the mahogany hollow wooden box.
Ding Qing picked each mooncake out of the box, held it in her palm and examined it carefully. It was hard to imagine that such snacks came from eleven different worlds.
Not long after the last online meeting ended, Ding Qing also got a mobile phone exclusively for the store employees of the shopping street.
After a few days of continuous digestion, Ding Qing is slowly accepting the fact that she has accidentally joined a super powerful cross-border (world) company.
-As
Cui Fengshi and his party walked down the street, they could smell a strong aroma from time to time, which was the most common smell of fireworks in the world.
One of the thugs who came with Cui Fengshi wrinkled his nose and sniffed hard: "Who is roasting red meat? It smells so good."
Xie Yu: "This resident must have also exchanged supplies at the errand shop."
Xue Qian: "To be honest, the more I think about it, the more I think that the shop is amazing. It can actually store so many categories of fresh supplies."
Another thug who was traveling with him said: "Not only does it have it, but it dares to take it out, and it is still free of charge . to the residents around. Who would believe that the boss behind the scenes has no ulterior motives? "
Xue Qian: "If this store is opened in Jinyao City, we will be the ones who benefit. It is in Gaosheng City, which is very troublesome."
Cui Fengshi: "This is also a way. Why don't we try to persuade the store owner to move the store to Jinyao City for development?"
Xue Qian: "Why not persuade people to go to our base directly." The more
Xie Yu listened, the more panicked he became.
They seemed to realize that the errand shop was very powerful, but they didn't seem to take it seriously.
The group chatted idly as they passed the abandoned traffic light intersection and entered Guanyin Road diagonally. They saw the door of the errand shop wide open from a distance. There was no one queuing at the door, and there seemed to be a person sitting under the eaves.
Before they could get close, several electric cars drove silently by the roadside and slowly stopped at the door of the errand shop.
The errand runners stopped their cars and walked towards the man sitting under the eaves one after another. Then, like birds returning to their nests, they sat down next to the man one by one.
The errand shop stopped taking orders at that time. Lu Yao had nothing to do, so he moved a chair and sat under the eaves, waiting for the errand runners to come back.
After waiting for a few minutes, the clerks came back one after another.
Lu Mingxiao sat on Lu Yao's left first, and Harold came back and sat on Lu Yao's right.
Then Mobao on the left, Budu on the right, Qiuyu on the left, Tina on the right, Zhaoye on the left, Sijin on the right... the shop assistants lined up and sat at the door of the store to watch the sunset with Lu Yao.
Lu Yao took out mooncakes from his bag, and the shop assistants each picked their favorite flavors and chatted while eating.
Lu Yao: "Are you busy today?"
Harold: "Not bad. I'm afraid business will be even better after today."
Zhao Ye: "Shopkeeper, when can I start running errands?"
Lu Yao: "You don't want to deliver goods?"
Zhao Ye pinched his fingers: "I also want to run errands like... Harold, the senior."
Qiu Yu: "It's a holiday, can we not talk about work for now? Let Lu Yao have a rest."
Zhao Ye lowered his head in awe: "I'm sorry."
Mo Bao: "Humans are fragile. Staying in the store all day and not going anywhere will also make you tired."
Bu Du turned his head and looked at Mo Bao with a "disapproving" expression: "You don't understand at all. Every time there is such an activity, it is my mother who works the hardest."
Mo Bao pouted, a little aggrieved.
Lu Yao winked at Lu Mingxiao.
Lu Mingxiao turned around and gently stroked Mo Bao's hair.
Before the joy on Mo Bao's face had completely melted, Lu Mingxiao said, "Bu Du is right."
Mo Bao: "..."
Si Jin: "Boss, we should go back to the nail salon for dinner tonight, right?"
Qiu Yu immediately said, "It's the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it's reasonable for the boss to go to the Internet cafe for dinner."
Bu Du: "Mother will definitely go back to the hot spring hotel with me."
Tina: "Bu Du, why don't you and Lu Yao go back to the nail salon together?" Harold
: "Lu Yao will of course go back to the nail salon. If I go back with you, we can just have a working meal at the snack bar. We have already asked Edward to catch the most delicious Warcraft of this season and have Warcraft barbecue in the evening." Zhao Ye
whispered: "We have also booked a full-spirit banquet at Liuxianlou."
...
For some unknown reason, the staff began to quarrel over where the owner would go for dinner in the evening.
Lu Yao let out a long sigh, and was about to continue his business of keeping the peace when he saw a group of people approaching slowly from a distance.
The leading man was wearing a particularly eye-catching suit, and behind him were three men and one woman.
Lu Yao recognized Xie Yu. However
, the other party's eyes were a little evasive.
Cui Fengshi's eyes wandered under the eaves, and without the need for others to introduce him, he locked onto Lu Yao at a glance, and his feet quickened a little. Before he got close, there was a smile in his eyes.
"I can hear the hustle and bustle here from a long distance away. This errand shop is really-"
The clerks turned their heads in unison: "Get lost!!!"
