Lu Yuan's eyes widened immediately: "What's going on? You can't even buy alcohol here?"
"Yes, a limit on alcohol consumption has been implemented here to conserve food!"
"Save food? Why?"
"Because all R&D departments are now shifting their focus elsewhere! As a result, many grain mills have already closed their wineries, so drink while you can and cherish it!"
Lu Yuan, however, seemed to have discovered some great news, and immediately slapped his thigh and laughed, "Haha! This is fantastic! Isn't this a godsend!"
Mi Tingting looked at Lu Yuan suspiciously: "Hey, aren't you gloating? Even though you have a farm, you still need food! Aren't you worried about rising food prices?"
Lu Yuan, however, nonchalantly puffed on his cigarette: "Hehe! I'm really sorry, there's something I forgot to tell you!"
Suddenly, Wan Fang spoke up: "How's your grain planting base doing? Can you continue developing that new material you gave me before?"
Mi Tingting looked at Lu Yuan's exaggerated laughter and immediately remembered what Wan Fang had just said.
"What? You...you also opened a grain planting base?"
Lu Yuan nodded: "Surprised, aren't you! Haha! I won't need the city's food anymore! I'll grow my own!"
For a moment, Mi Tingting didn't know how to describe her feelings: "I thought you were just a speculator, but I didn't expect you to have built an entire industry chain! Boss, please mentor me!"
Lu Yuan waved his hand: "These are all minor matters, but there are more important things for you to do now!"
"Oh? There's more work to do? Brother, just let me rest for a bit!"
"Not yet! Wan Fang has just acquired the Cui family's revitalization technology, but his foundation is not yet stable. As someone who has infiltrated the Flying Sky Organization, you have a long way to go!"
"Sigh! So you're a heartless boss! I thought you were a good boss! I never imagined you'd enjoy exploiting your employees like this! All crows are black, after all!"
"Hehe! I'm the darkest!"
Mi Tingting rolled her eyes and brought over two cups of coffee.
"Drowning your sorrows in alcohol won't work, how about coffee?"
Wan Fang nodded dejectedly: "I'm fine!"
Then the other person took the coffee cup, took a sip, looked at Lu Yuan, and asked, "The revitalization company in the urban area may not be able to continue operating in the future. It has been targeted by the Flying Sky people. Even if I continue to run it, I don't think there will be any good solutions! Should we move to another location?"
Lu Yuan shook his head: "No need! Feitian won't offend the Cui family to the death! Anyway, you're not divorced from Cui Jiayi yet, so you're still the Cui family's son-in-law! This status can help you continue to run Zhenxing Technology Company!"
Wan Fang looked annoyed: "Huh? We still have to rely on the Cui family? What if the higher-ups come to inspect?"
Lu Yuan smiled slightly: "It's alright, let them inspect! What's there to be afraid of? Just do what you need to do. They won't worry about business matters; they'll only care about the monthly revenue!"
"Yeah, that's true, but we still need to be careful. What if the higher-ups in the Cui family want to remotely control things? I don't want to have any dealings or entanglements with the mutant organization's company!"
"That is a problem, but we can hold out for a while longer. I'm sure the higher-ups have already received the news. Cui Jiayi's death still needs to be handled properly. We must show the higher-ups that you have put in a lot of effort!"
"How should we handle this?"
Lu Yuan took a sip of coffee: "A grand funeral, huh! Anything else?"
Wan Fang looked pained: "I have no feelings for her, I can't do it!"
"Alright, it's just an act. If you don't play along, the company will be in trouble. We've gone to such lengths to put on an act, and Cui Jiayi is just trying to help you. You can't just abandon her like this! It would be such a waste of her good intentions!"
"Please don't mention her, okay? My mind is a mess right now!"
"Alright! You get some rest tonight. I can't stay here for too long, so I still have a few things to take care of these next couple of days! Tomorrow I hope to see Cui Jiayi's funeral on the front page!"
Wan Fang sighed, downed the bitter coffee in one gulp, and his face was filled with pain.
"Sigh! I'm a chemist by training, and I've been relegated to the acting department! Isn't this just putting me in a difficult position!"
"Haha! Mr. Wan, don't underestimate yourself! You acted quite well before!"
"Don't joke with me! I don't want to laugh at all right now."
The three of them had a simple dinner. Wan Fang returned to her residence, while Lu Yuan and Zhou Tong spent the night at Mi Tingting's wedding dress shop.
The next morning, everyone got busy as usual.
Lu Yuan raised his hand to check the time, then called Xi Wen.
"Brother Lu, you can come now!"
"Okay! I'll be right there! By the way, is everything ready?"
"Everything is ready! The business manager from Wanwu Biotechnology Company has an appointment for 2 PM, so coming early now will give you a chance to familiarize yourself with your new role!"
"Okay! Then let's not delay, I'll go with Zhou Tong right now!"
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuan packed his things and then called out to Zhou Tong.
The two of them took a flying car directly to Xiwen and Hanwen's residence.
Following the directions on the address, Lu Yuan and Zhou Tong arrived at a narrow basement.
