Chapter 366 Earthquake. Emergency
Seeing that the father and son had no time to take care of her, the woman hurriedly put the bags on the ground on her shoulders, one layer after another.
Chu An did not let Hua Bi stop them, this was someone else's family affair. If they hurt the woman, even if they were not blamed by the stall owner, they would still make things worse for him.
By the time the stall owner realized what was happening, the woman turned and ran away.
The stall owner was so angry that he coughed violently and almost passed out. It took him a long time to recover. Then he bowed 90 degrees to Chu An and said, "I'm so sorry, I can't trade with you anymore."
Koi and Huabi sighed in their hearts, one should marry a virtuous wife, the ancients were right.
Chu An was very calm and asked casually, "Are you a construction engineer?"
The stall owner was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, I'm an architectural designer and I used to work at CA."
CA Group is a large family business that developed from Hong Kong. They account for one-third of the domestic and international architectural awards.
Jinli knew this company. The Changlong Building was designed by the designers of CA Group. It remained intact after heavy rain, extreme cold, extreme heat and earthquake. Of course, CA's masterpieces are more than that.
He told Chu An, "This company is very famous and has won many awards in the architectural field."
The stall owner heard his words and looked lost. "I participated in the design of 60% of the Xiwan CBD complex, and the main building of the Yingbin Resort is my best masterpiece."
Chu An's eyes lit up, but he quickly calmed down and asked, "I want to build a house for myself. Of course, it can't compare to your previous design, but if you help me design the blueprint, I can pay you. One blueprint is worth ten kilograms of corn or three kilograms of flour."
The stall owner was a little surprised, "Are you serious?"
Chu An nodded, "Yes, but my requirements are very high."
The man hurriedly took out a notebook and a pencil from his worn backpack and said, "You tell me, I'll write it down."
Chu An didn't understand this either, so he just said what he wanted. The house had to withstand a magnitude 10 earthquake, a magnitude 10 gale, acid rain, and toxic fog, and it had to have a breeding area and a vegetable planting area, a good drainage system, and preferably a few machine gun positions.
The more the man remembered, the more his hands shook. This was not building a house, but a doomsday fortress. But then he thought, in this situation, building anything would be fine.
"These are either impossible to achieve, or the materials are ..."
"I don't have the materials yet, but I can find them. I want drawings like this now. Please design five plans for me."
"Okay... okay."
“Can it be done in one day?”
"It will take at least a week."
"It's too long. I'll give you three days at most. If you can't complete five sets of plans, you can only give me as many as you have. But you can't give me a perfunctory answer. If I find out that you give me defective products, you should know the consequences."
The stall owner knew they were extraordinary after just one look at the tattooed arms and nodded vigorously.
"Don't be too happy too soon. I have no way to confirm your identity right now. Since you said that you designed the Yingbin Resort, do you still have the original design drawings? I want to see them."
"Yes, but it's on my computer... and the computer is out of battery."
Chu An took out a fully charged power bank and a mobile phone from his bag, "These two things are for you. Send the drawings to my email. After I confirm them, our transaction will be final."
The man stared at the power bank and the mobile phone for a long time. He knew that there were satellite phones that could connect to the Internet, but he had never thought about buying one because he couldn't afford it.
"This... is it really for me?"
"Well, if your drawings satisfy me, I can give you these two things." Chu An was not afraid that he would run away. A man's heart has only two colors: fear and conscience, and conscience prevails.
If he really suddenly turned bad, at most she would just lose a power bank and a mobile phone, which was nothing to her, but the blueprint of the Welcome Resort was too important.
She couldn't show that she particularly wanted it yet. She had been walking around for two hours today, and there was no telling how many pairs of eyes were staring at her. They were basically the local organizations observing outsiders, not just targeting them.
But if she cared about something in particular, someone would probably get there first, causing a series of chain reactions that she couldn't have anticipated, and she didn't want to alert the enemy.
In addition, she was so generous because she wanted to intimidate these people and make it easier for her to travel in Xiwan in the future.
The stall owner wiped his hands on his clothes and said, "Okay... I promise to give you the drawings as soon as I get home."
Chu An smiled lightly, "There is a location and my phone number in the phone, don't even think about running away, I will find you no matter where you are."
"No, I won't run away. I just want to raise my son." The man said a little anxiously.
Chu An was speaking to the people around them who were observing them, "If you encounter danger while drawing, just press 1 and I will know it immediately. The blueprint is not valuable, and the phone is not worth risking your life."
The stall owner had been promising to abide by the contract and had no idea that Chu An was protecting him.
After a while, the people who went to look for Xia Yaoyin came back and asked them to meet up at the place where they came in. The group said goodbye to the stall owner and returned the same way.
Xia Yaoyin and her friends also bought some seafood, but two of their men had bleeding mouths and bruised eyes, as if they had had a conflict with someone. Chu An and Jinli pretended not to see anything.
The two sides met, exchanged a few simple pleasantries and then walked back. However, not far from the trading area, a group of people suddenly surrounded them, estimated to be twelve or thirteen.
The leader was a young man, with all his hair shaved off except for a thumb-width vertical strip in the middle, which was very different. Next to him stood a younger brother with a bruised face and nose. The reason why he was surrounded was self-evident.
"Brother Jie, it's them." The bruised and battered younger brother pointed at Xia Yaoyin and complained.
Koi had no choice but to ask now. They were standing together, and it was not easy to distance themselves from the matter.
"What's going on, President Xia?"
Huang Jue hurriedly explained: "This person spoke rudely to President Xia, and we gave him a lesson. I didn't expect him to dare to call someone to retaliate."
Jinli was sighing in his heart. Not only was one of them injured, but two of them were injured. Xia Yaoyin's ten thugs were definitely just for show and were probably not as good as those laborers.
Huang Jue finished explaining and shouted, "You were the ones who provoked me first. I've already spared his life. What else do you want?"
The bruised man held his stomach and said, "Brother Jie, I just complimented that girl on her beauty and they beat me without explanation. I could have tolerated it. But I mentioned your name and they beat me again. I can't tolerate it. Brother Jie and the others don't take you seriously at all."
"Go to the side." The boss called Brother Jie pushed him away, but he didn't listen to Huang Jue's explanation. "It's not that I want to do anything. You violated the rules of the Three Heroes Gang. If you beat someone in the night market, you must pay ten times the compensation. If you don't want to pay, you must pay with your life."
