Chapter 41 Chapter 41
Bai Ze wakes up
The opening time is on the weekend, and the children don’t have to go to school, so it’s a perfect time for them to join in the fun. For this day, even the construction of the new school was temporarily stopped for a day to allow all the monsters to come. From another perspective, the scene is also extremely grand.
Sitting on the bus to Fuyu Mountain, Ke Yuansi was so nervous that his legs kept shaking. He couldn't help but ask, "Brother Chen, how many times have you been here?"
"once."
"You're so calm after only coming here once?" Ke Yuansi was impressed. "I was so nervous."
Thinking back to the blunders he had caused the other day, Wei Jingchen paused for a moment before deciding to be thick-skinned. "Well, it's nothing, really. Relax."
"Yes, yes, I take a deep breath."
Seeing Ke Yuansi trying hard to calm down, Wei Jingchen also took a deep breath quietly.
The secretary was still texting him frantically on his phone: "Mr. Wei, the meeting is about to start."
Wei Jingchen turned on the camera on his mobile phone and entered the online conference room.
The secretary and some senior executives of the company were already inside. When they saw the background behind Wei Jingchen, they were so shocked that they couldn't control their expressions.
Only Wei Jingchen's secretary was relatively steady.
As the boss of a large company, I have a lot of things to do on weekends, and I basically have no free time. When I left today, my secretary was very puzzled as to why the boss had been going to the mountains so often recently for a grant, and even changed a high-level meeting today to be held online.
Until I watched the boss get on the strange bus.
Who says bosses don’t take the bus?
The company executives couldn't hide their curiosity: "Where is Mr. Wei?"
Wei Jingchen said calmly, "On the way to a grand opening ceremony."
Wow, they moved the meeting online just for an opening ribbon-cutting ceremony. This must be a company with a very strong background!
Executives: “I don’t know which company it is?”
"Monster Supermarket."
“???”
What kind of place is that? It must be about the size of a Mart.
Several senior executives secretly wrote down the name of this supermarket and promised to treat it well if they heard about it in the future. After all, it was a good thing that made President Wei condescend to take the bus and hold a video meeting on the bus.
The meeting continued until the bus stopped, and Wei Jingchen finally said, "Let's stop here for now. We'll discuss it again tomorrow after we've revised the plan."
The senior executives in the meeting agreed one after another, and then saw the boss in the video begin to shake.
Then I saw another familiar face.
Um? ?
Isn't that the young master of the Ke family? How come he's with Mr. Wei too?
Ke Yuansi thought Wei Jingchen had finished the meeting. He looked at the mountain in front of him and took a few deep breaths: "Boss, I'm still nervous."
Upon learning that there were guests from the human world today, Yu Chongming stood outside the mountain to greet them and took the flower basket they brought. "Hello, I'm Yu Chongming from Fuyu Mountain. Director Lian Jiu asked me to come here to pick you up."
Wei Jingchen: "It's hard work."
The few people who stayed in the conference room and eavesdropped looked at each other.
What kind of place is Fuyu Mountain?
Everyone stretched their necks but could only see the emerald green mountains in the camera, nothing else.
With a snap, the video conference ended.
The senior executives asked Wei Jingchen's secretary, "Do you know what kind of company the Monster Supermarket in Fuyu Mountain is?"
The secretary knew a little about this, after all, she knew about the funding: "It seems to be in the countryside. The monster kindergarten that President Wei said he would support before might be a supermarket opened by the villagers there."
Everyone: “???”
How can I sponsor a kindergarten and then attend its opening ceremony?
That’s fine, but why did the young master of the Ke family also go?!
The senior management of LK Group went to Baidu in confusion, but they could only find a legal person named Si Lan. There was no other information about the company. However, they did find a bunch of related kindergarten videos.
Well... I can only say that President Wei is really kind-hearted and he does things like this personally.
After Ke Yuansi and Wei Jingchen walked into the mountains, they were stunned by the scene before them.
Today all the monsters gathered together and were very happy, so they didn't control themselves much, so there was a lot of activity, some flying in the sky, some swimming in the water, and some running on the ground.
Isn’t this more exciting than a 3D movie?
Ke Yuansi felt that he could live here and never have to go out!
The monsters along the way looked at the two people curiously. Director Lian Jiu said that there would be guests from the human world coming today and they should be treated well.
So when the monsters met, they would greet them warmly: "Welcome to Fuyu Mountain!"
Ke Yuansi shuddered when he suddenly heard human words coming out of the bird's mouth, and his back was covered with goose bumps with excitement: "Thank you, thank you!"
When passing by the lake, the fishes jumped out of the water happily: "Welcome~"
At this time, Ke Yuansi finally understood why Lian Jiu wanted to take pictures of the scene here.
Anyone who sees it will be moved.
"Brother Chen, I had a long chat with the director the other day." Ke Yuansi turned around and said, "If this film is ever made, it will definitely be a sensation. I swear on my professional ethics! There will be no problem if you invest in it."
Wei Jingchen glanced at him and said, "What about your professional ethics? Aren't you unemployed?"
"...That's not the same thing." Ke Yuansi scratched his head. "I just think that even when making commercial films, one should have one's own style. Every screenwriter has different ideas. Why should I be considered unconventional just because I express ideas that differ from those of the screenwriters? If I had made this classic movie before these filmmakers, would those who disagree with my ideas also be unconventional?"
Because Ke Yuansi is his sister's friend, Wei Jingchen has a good relationship with him. Ke Yuansi used to be much more stubborn and would never tell these things to anyone.
If he had been more proactive in communicating before, he wouldn't have ended up losing his job.
Wei Jingchen raised his eyebrows: "Your thinking has advanced to a new level recently."
"Really?" Ke Yuansi himself hadn't noticed, but he felt that his mental burden had been greatly reduced. "Maybe it's because of the conversation I had with Director Lian Jiu the other day?"
He himself felt a bit of the same way. "Isn't it strange? Jingxuan studies psychology. We've been friends for so long and I don't think I've ever told her this. But after talking to Lian Jiu, I can tell anyone now. "Could it be that she also studies psychology?"
"That's not the case." Wei Jingchen recalled the few times he and Lian Jiu had met. "Talking to her really does make people relax."
When I received the call and when I first came to the mountains, I was comforted by Lian Jiu's condition and voice. In fact, this was one of the reasons why I chose to invest.
She always makes people believe.
The two chatted as they saw their destination.
It is called a supermarket, but in fact the entrance is as big as an ordinary convenience store. The doorhead is made of wood and leaves, and looks even simpler than a kindergarten.
But there were demons swarming at the door.
Lian Jiu stood in the middle and introduced to everyone the future use of this supermarket. In the future, vegetables from the greenhouses and farms will be transported directly here, and the monsters will not have to go from one place to another to get them.
If anyone were to see him, they would not be able to recognize that Lian Jiu, who was surrounded by monsters, was just an ordinary human.
This ordinary person was loved and admired by all the monsters.
When she was speaking, no monster would even interrupt, and every one of them listened attentively.
Wei Jingchen and Ke Yuansi, who were outside the demon group, were dressed in a way that didn't fit in with the demon world, so Lian Jiu spotted them immediately: "Hey! Mr. Wei! Xiao Ke!"
The monsters all turned around and tacitly made way for the two guests to enter first.
Ke Yuansi sighed softly, "Isn't this much more orderly than the people at the entrance of our human world supermarket when it opened?"
Lian Jiu made room for him and introduced the monsters, "This is Mr. Wei Jingchen. Not all the monsters saw him when he came here before. He's the president of LK, the sponsor of our kindergarten. He paid for all the teaching facilities, including the large projection screen and some recreational facilities."
"The other person is Ke Yuansi, our future partner for filming in the mountains."
Lian Jiu also invited all the new teachers over: "And these are our school's new teachers and doctors. They will work with us in the future."
Monsters big and small stared at him with sparkling eyes and clapped their hands in unison: "Welcome, welcome! A warm welcome!"
The few humans were surrounded by monsters and were actually a little at a loss.
Wei Jingchen held down his restless hand, fearing that he would not be able to resist and call his secretary to ask for more money.
But Ke Yuansi, who came for the first time, was obviously a little drunk.
He felt like he had stepped into a fairy tale world, his feet were floating, and there was a bird perched on his shoulder!
"I'm more than just a partner!" he declared. "From now on, I'll cover all your video shoots in the mountains, and all the movies you want to watch for leisure! I'll open a cinema right where you used to watch movies. Then you can watch whatever you want after work or study!"
The demons suddenly cheered loudly.
But the demon gods were all confused. Was this something agreed upon in advance?
Lian Jiu didn't react: "Xiao Ke?"
Ke Yuansi's forehead was sweating with excitement, and his face flushed red. "Principal, please don't stop me. I have a lot of money. I'm happy if everyone is happy. If you have any other projects that need funding, you can always contact me!"
Wei Jingxuan covered her face with her hands, this bag was so conspicuous.
Lian Jiu was about to say something when he was interrupted by Su Caifeng and Yuan Qing. Su Caifeng enthusiastically shook the hand of the new rich man: "I know this Xiao Ke is very good. The word rich is written on his forehead. He has a bright future."
Ke Yuansi was in a daze: "Who are you?"
"My name is Su Caifeng," Su Caifeng said happily, "People in the human world usually call me Pixiu."
Ke Yuansi: “Fuck.”
Wait a minute, let’s shake hands again!
Su Caifeng: "You are very appealing to me. I have a small business. Would you like to discuss it with me?"
"I want to talk too!" Yuan Qing tiptoed, "Regarding the doll from yesterday, I think there aren't enough styles of clothes. Can you think of a solution?"
Ke Yuansi was coaxed aside by the two demon gods with a confused look on his face.
Lian Jiu: It’s pretty good. Every place has its own conspicuous bag.
We still have to intervene, otherwise Ke Yuansi will be cheated out of everything by the "Little Myanmar" combination of Yuan Qing and Pi Xiu.
Fortunately, Long Ying was paying attention and gave her a look.
Now that the guests and mountain monsters are almost all here, we can begin the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Lian Jiu looked around and finally found Si Lan eating candy in the corner.
When I introduced these big and small things about the supermarket to Si Lan before, he didn’t understand.
But now he is the boss, and he and a few demon gods should be the ones to cut the ribbon.
After all, it is a small milestone in the establishment of the Monster Group. We should also record it in a video and post it online as today's material.
"I'll do it, I'll do it!" Ke Yuansi, who was rescued from the pile of Pixiu and Bifang by Long Ying, raised his hand and said, "Director, I'm a professional, I'll take the photo!"
Ke Yuansi was not a guest at the ribbon-cutting ceremony. He even brought a camera today to record his special experience in his life.
Even though Lian Jiu had already declined the identity of the legal person, he was eventually pushed to the middle position by the demon gods, standing with Si Lan, and together with the guest Wei Jingchen, they successfully opened the business and cut the ribbon.
"Monster Supermarket is open!"
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The specially bought fireworks exploded, and the streamers fell on the heads of the monsters. They curiously tried to catch them with their hands. The little monsters who had turned into their original forms used their heads and claws to grab them and ran around.
Ke Yuansi recorded all these scenes and thought that there was no need to make a movie. Recording these fragments of life would make a good documentary.
After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the monsters can go into the supermarket and choose things by themselves.
After all, all the items here are free now.
Lian Jiu also brought a few guests in and introduced them.
Ke Yuansi took pictures as he walked, and was a little worried when he learned that these things were all free.
Sometimes we have to admit that the word "free" is very attractive. Wherever it is free, no matter whether you have money or not, that place will be crowded and the security guards will not be able to maintain order.
Vegetables dropped on the highway, supermarkets offering discounts, plazas hosting food tastings...
After the storm, only devastation remains.
Ke Yuansi said, "Director, do you want to control the situation and let everyone come in in an orderly manner?"
Wu Shanshan and others thought so too.
"No need." Lian Jiu understood what they meant and glanced back, "Everyone knows what to do."
Several people also turned around, but were stunned.
The imagined crowded scene has not yet appeared. No matter whether it is a big monster or a small monster, they are still standing at the door, making way for each other.
"You go in first."
"You go in first. I took a look when I came to set up the door the other day."
"I still have some vegetables left in my cave, don't worry. If anyone has nothing in their cave, then go in first!"
Ba Wu flew up and stood on a branch, saying loudly, "House demons, remember to register whatever you have taken in the book at the door."
The greenhouse is temporarily safe and only needs to be harvested and planted, so Si Lan transferred Ba Wu here to help and became a hands-off manager.
The monsters at the door responded, "Okay!"
The little monsters who were originally running around now stood obediently beside their parents, playing with the ribbons they had just picked up, waiting for their parents to take them in.
The humans who saw this scene fell silent.
Why do I feel a little ashamed all of a sudden?
Even Wang Shuishui and Wang Jun, who were being led by Wang Shanqing, said, "Everyone is not fighting over the eggs."
Ke Yuansi opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
Lian Jiu smiled and said gently, "The monsters in our mountains, big and small, are all beginners in etiquette. They have never owned these things before, but they know they are precious, so no one understands their need better than them."
The monsters came in one after another, keeping a distance so as not to disturb the monsters around them. Even if they wanted to take something, they would queue up obediently.
The little monsters looked at these things they had never seen before with curiosity, but they would not touch them rashly or take them by themselves. They would just ask their parents if they could have one. They would take it only if the big monster agreed, and would not make a fuss if the big monster disagreed.
Emotional management is quite good.
Wei Jingchen was slightly surprised: "Kids, can you control yourselves?"
Lian Jiu: "Children's education is closely related to their surroundings. If parents set good examples, teachers teach well, and children behave the same way towards each other, then they will come to believe that this is how the world should be, and will naturally understand what they should and shouldn't do."
Yu Chongming slapped his head, then suddenly realized: "So when you came here, you didn't just teach the children, you also let the big monsters watch videos in your office."
In fact, she had always thought that this was how it should be, but only now did she realize that the current situation was related to every step taken by Director Lian Jiu from the beginning.
I watched it in the office at first, and later I bought a large projector, so more and more big monsters can watch videos and learn.
Lian Jiu smiled and said, "Let's go in and take a look. You can take anything you want. It's free for anyone and any demon."
Wei Jingchen walked forward and saw that there was a piece of paper next to each shelf with pictures and words printed on it. When he got closer, he found that these were the usage and purpose of each product.
Ke Yuansi also moved the camera forward: "This is..."
"This is what the director prepared," Yu Chongming said. "Although I've introduced these things to everyone, they're all just theories. No one has ever seen them before. Worried that everyone wouldn't understand them without seeing them in person, the director suggested printing them out and slowly teaching the monsters how to recognize them."
"Yes," Wei Jingxuan said, "After class every day, the principal had to work overtime, and later we helped out a little."
Although printing is simple, editing text and searching for images is still quite troublesome and requires carefulness.
When Ke Yuansi arrived in the mountains, his excited mood was like being poured with a bucket of cold water. He calmed down completely. When he looked at Lian Jiu again, he had more respect for him.
One person supports so many monsters and paves a way out for them.
How much pressure and determination she must have had.
It's hard for ordinary people to do this...
This is not just poverty alleviation. There is more to do than poverty alleviation, the road to go is longer, and the difficulties faced are greater.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the entrance of the cave: "Wow! There are colorful clouds!"
“So beautiful!”
"Is it some kind of monster transformed from a cloud?"
Hearing these voices, several demon gods looked at each other, and their eyes fell on Lian Jiu at the same time.
Lian Jiu was also confused: "What's wrong?"
When I walked out and looked, I saw a colorful cloud spreading in the sky of the demon world, and light shining down from it and falling on the ground.
I haven't seen such beautiful clouds for a long time. My heart trembled slightly. I raised my hand subconsciously. My fingertips were imprinted by the light in the clouds, as if they were transparent.
She heard Si Lan beside her say, "Bai Ze."
Lian Jiu was stunned.
"Bai Ze is awake."
