Lu Yuan was taken aback when he heard the string of accusations from the other party.
"Manager Chen, you've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I'd like to talk to you privately. May I have two minutes of your time?"
The other party was getting a headache from Lu Yuan's nagging. After thinking for a while, he put down his chopsticks and said, "Okay, I'll give you two minutes to talk in my office. But let me make one thing clear beforehand: if you try to take advantage of the goods in the warehouse, I'll have you arrested first!"
Lu Yuan was delighted to see that the other party had agreed to give him time, and then quickly said, "Don't worry, I'm definitely not from the black market, you can rest assured about that. And you don't need to worry that I'm interested in what's in your warehouse, because I have something even better!"
A hint of suspicion appeared on the other person's face. They stopped what they were doing and looked at Lu Yuan: "What? You mean you have something better than what's in this warehouse? Then why didn't you find other people to cooperate with, but instead chose someone from the freight department like me?"
Lu Yuan made a mysterious gesture, then pointed outside: "This isn't a good place to talk. Let's go to your office and chat!"
The other person nodded, packed their food into a bag, and led Lu Yuan toward their office.
It was lunchtime, which was Liu Qiang's shift. He was starving and rubbing his stomach, sighing. However, because he was on duty, he could only go to eat with the next batch. He silently mourned for himself, knowing that if he went to the cafeteria later, he would only be able to eat some leftovers. If he didn't go early, he might not even get any leftovers.
Just as they were complaining about the work schedule, they suddenly saw Chen Bin leading the young man who had come at noon through the gate.
"Manager Chen, what's going on?"
Chen Bin's face remained expressionless as he softly said to the other person, "Alright, go have lunch. I'll watch over things here!"
Chen Bin didn't seem to intend to explain to him why he had brought the young man who had come to see him that morning. Liu Qiang also showed a hint of suspicion. He didn't know how this young man had convinced Chen Bin to let him in.
However, he didn't say much at the time, only expressed his gratitude to Chen Bin before leaving the transportation department.
After arriving at his office, Chen Bin was about to pour Lu Yuan a cup of tea when he suddenly stopped. He didn't know what Lu Yuan did for a living. If he was just here to freeload, then there was no need for him to entertain this person. So he stared at Lu Yuan and asked, "Alright, there's no one else here. What do you want to say to me? I have limited time. You have two minutes!"
Lu Yuan's lips curled up slightly, and then he took out a piece of beef from his lunchbox.
"Manager Chen, please take a look!"
Chen Bin took the beef from Lu Yuan with some suspicion, then glanced at it and asked with a hint of disdain, "It's just a piece of beef. Are you trying to bribe me with this? You're overthinking it. Even if you gave me a whole cow, I wouldn't be tempted!"
Lu Yuan smiled slightly, then pointed to the beef and said, "Manager Chen, try the beef first!"
Chen Bin was somewhat suspicious, but he smelled the beef and then took a small bite. However, as the other person took a bite, he suddenly remembered something.
Is your beef fresh?
Lu Yuan smiled and nodded.
"That's right, it's fresh beef. And look at this!"
As he spoke, Lu Yuan handed another item, sealed in a package, to the other person.
Chen Bin took the sealed bag, gently tore it open, and a rich fruity aroma immediately wafted out.
"Apples? Fresh apples, no apples left at this time of year. Where did you get these?" Chen Bin was in turmoil, unsure how to describe his feelings.
"Hehe, besides meat and fruit, I have many other things there, but that place hasn't been fully built yet, so I came to find you this time to ask you to come with me!"
A look of suspicion immediately appeared on Chen Bin's face. Then he stared at Lu Yuan and said, "Go with you? You have your own little base outside?"
Lu Yuan nodded, then shook his head: "There is a small base, but it can't really be considered a base yet. My next task requires an excellent leader, so the base project has been delayed. I wonder if you would like to come with me. I have all kinds of food there, so you don't have to work so hard every day and be wasting your talents as a transportation manager. If you come with me, I will recruit a group of survivors and you will be in charge of them. You can still become a senior executive like before!"
Chen Bin didn't know what words to use to describe his feelings at this moment. In short, he was shocked, confused, and a little bit expectant. He felt very stifled here.
"Wait a minute, let me think about it, but I have a few questions I'd like to ask you first!"
Lu Yuan nodded: "Sure, feel free to ask any questions!"
After thinking for a moment, Chen Bin said, "You said you would find many people there, and judging from the two things you just took out, I know you shouldn't lack food, but why did you find me?"
Lu Yuan was also somewhat helpless at this moment. Of the names Gu Tong gave him, he was the only one he could find right now, while the other four were outside, making it very troublesome for Lu Yuan to find them.
