He was genuinely anxious and worried. He did have assets, but they were all fixed assets; he didn't have much liquid cash right now.
Of his 100 million, 40 million was borrowed by mortgaging his family's two supermarkets. He originally planned to pay it back slowly or ask his older sister for help.
But if the dealer really cheated, then he and his older sister would both be trapped. If his older sister also fell, then he would really have no one to rely on. Chen Niansheng was very panicked.
Li Zhenzhen comforted her daughter for a few moments before calling her. She wasn't too anxious, because she had a safety net of money in her own hands, a sum of money that no one knew about, which gave her peace of mind.
After returning to his small villa in the suburbs, Li Ke rested for a while before taking out his old phones and checking them one by one.
The repair shop owner sent several more messages, not saying that there wasn't enough money, but that they had a lot of stock and that Li Ke could come and inspect it when he had time.
The farmhouse owner's phone also contained many work reports from the head chefs and various procurement lists, which Li Ke reviewed and replied to.
There were also some incoming calls. Li Ke ignored the ones he didn't know and replied to the ones he wasn't very familiar with. However, Mr. Liu, a kind person Li Ke knew before, called twice, but Li Ke hadn't used this phone for a long time and didn't answer the calls.
Remembering the favors Liu had given him during his first purchase, Li Ke used a voice changer to call him back.
Only then did he realize that it was Boss Liu's daughter, Liu Yuhe, who was looking for work and happened to be in his area. Boss Liu thought he would contact this young girl and ask her to help him take care of her.
Li Ke is overwhelmed; she still has to maintain her identity as a guesthouse owner when she returns. The more identities she has, the easier it is to make mistakes.
After thinking for a moment, Li Ke replied, "Uncle Liu, it's like this, I'm currently studying abroad and won't be back for a while. I also don't use this phone often, which is why I didn't receive your call earlier. Here, could you give me Yuhe's phone number? I'll ask my friend to keep an eye on her when he has time."
Mr. Liu had given up hope when he couldn't get through to Xiao Zhou, so receiving a call back was a pleasant surprise. He was worried about his daughter being alone out there, and he was naturally happy to have Xiao Zhou help take care of her.
Li Ke wrote down Liu Yuhe's phone number, planning to contact her again tomorrow to see if there was anything he could help her with.
Li Ke's days ahead won't be easy either. Tomorrow, she'll be storing all the supplies in the warehouse and other ordered goods into her spatial storage, and then she'll have the chefs resume normal cafeteria operations and continue making delicious food.
For the time being, Li Ke doesn't plan to travel around anymore. She still has 20 billion Chinese yuan and three boxes of gold in her space, as well as some antique documents and handicrafts that she hasn't disposed of. She exchanged all of these Chinese yuan while she was away.
Li Ke plans to go abroad again in six months to collect the last batch of supplies he ordered, and then gradually disband his work team and return to N City to wait for the apocalypse to arrive.
After thinking for a moment, Li Ke sent another message to Zhou Heng, asking her to help check the current assets of the Chen family.
Li Ke had already put the Chen family's three supermarkets and two gas stations into his pocket. If they were scammed by the bookmakers this time and wanted to sell these assets, Li Ke would definitely take action in advance to reap the benefits.
Aside from that, Li Ke didn't pay much attention to the Chen family's news. She was also very busy in the following days. Not only was the farmhouse restaurant cooking, but with the addition of a head chef, they also contracted another canteen. So now Li Ke had to run between the two places to collect food.
Li Ke also contacted Liu Yuhe, posing as a friend of Boss Zhou. She described Liu as an independent and self-reliant girl who had found a sales job. She was very polite on the phone, only saying that everything was fine and that it was really troublesome for her father to call Boss Zhou.
Judging from the girl's tone, Li Ke seemed to be doing quite well, but out of a sense of responsibility, he still asked for her address and said he would visit her when he had time.
He said he wanted to see her, but he was busy for half a month. When Li Ke finally saw Liu Yuhe, the girl had just come out of the company with a small luggage cart. Fortunately, the weather wasn't too cold yet, but seeing her walking down the street in her work clothes, looking for shops to sell oil pens, Li Ke still felt that Liu Yuhe's job was not good.
Time was running out, and Liu Yuhe's job was unlikely to pay much. Li Ke, posing as the owner of a farmhouse restaurant, approached her directly, saying he needed a warehouse manager with a monthly salary of 6,000 yuan, overtime pay extra, and weekends off. He asked Liu Yuhe if she wanted to change jobs.
Li Ke had witnessed Liu Yuhe's efficient and responsible work.
Liu Yuhe wasn't stubborn. Her current sales job was really tough. The salary was so low that it barely covered her food and lodging, and the products were hard to sell. She had to be mindful of people's moods every day.
So when the owner of the agritainment business offered her a warehouse job, Liu Yuhe agreed without much thought. The point of going out to work is to earn money. As long as she works hard and is worthy of the salary she receives, she will have a clear conscience about taking this job.
Having secured Liu Yuhe's job, Li Ke continued shopping online while simultaneously arranging for people to contact various domestic cultivation bases for green plants, lawns, and seedlings to make large-scale purchases.
In addition, Li Ke also arranged for people to purchase large quantities of domestic Chinese medicinal herbs and various Chinese medicine packs with different effects.
