"Are they all untied?"
Wen Maidong looked at the jadeite on the table. The colorful display was truly captivating. The ashen exterior concealed such vibrant colors, a feeling of wonder that immediately captivated him.
"Yes! They are all untied. There are five colors."
Chen Yun looked at Wen Maidong with a smug look on his face. They had made a killing this time. Jade has five colors, but jadeite has six. Unfortunately, they were still missing the white one.
"Green, yellow, red, black, and purple. Indeed, only the white one is missing."
There were priceless jadeite on the table, but their focus wasn't on the price. White jade was too rare and too difficult to obtain.
"What are you going to do with these?" Wen Maidong casually moved the jadeite on the table.
"Of course I need to find a better craftsman to help me make it into jewelry."
Chen Yun wanted the finished product. Although the raw stone had value, the jewelry was her favorite.
"Okay... leave it all to me! I'll go ask Grandpa if there's a good master."
At the foot of the capital, finding these skilled craftsmen also requires connections. Don't think that ordinary people can find such talented people.
"Okay..." Chen Yun was very happy.
"It's raining... Lately, things seem a little too peaceful. It feels like the prelude to a storm. Look, it's already raining, which clearly means something's wrong."
"No! I think it's pretty good."
Shen Yun stayed at home, ignoring the outside world's disturbances. All troubles had nothing to do with her, because someone would clear all obstacles for her. The research institute had been under constant scrutiny, and recently, Shen Yun didn't dare to easily contact the institute, nor did she dare to go to the institute.
"No news from you yet?"
"Chi Yan and the others said that the research institute is still under surveillance, so I can't go there during this period. I can only go after it is fully secured."
Chen Yun pouted, looking a little unhappy. Unable to conduct research at the institute, she'd been feeling incredibly frustrated. Grandpa Wen had also told her to stay indoors, and things had been turbulent recently. Someone had leaked the news, and now a new round of alert had begun.
"Well, then stay here and don't get into trouble. It will be very troublesome if you do."
Wen Maidong patted Chen Yun and said, "Don't make trouble for yourself. You need to be more cautious at this time. Those people have never given up their plans. They need to hide more, preferably among the crowd, so that they can hide better.
"I know. I will stay home peacefully during this period."
Shen Yun shrugged her shoulders. She would naturally obey. Fortunately, she had them by her side during this period, so it wasn't too boring. Otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to bear it and would want to go back.
"I'm back……"
"We're back..."
"It's raining so hard! It feels like the capital is about to be flooded."
The water was already up to their waists, and some areas were already submerged due to the low terrain. Their courtyard was located on a relatively high ground, so there was only some water accumulation, but it was not too serious.
Chen Feng and Chen Yu rushed home from school in the heavy rain, feeling a little uncomfortable because they were soaking wet. The rain outside was so heavy that it felt like a torrential downpour was pouring directly onto them.
"It's really heavy. It's okay if I don't go out, but it will be troublesome if I go out." It's just like taking a shower, and the rain can't be stopped at all from falling on your body and face.
"Hurry up... go take a shower! The water is ready. Oh, and there's ginger tea. Have a cup to get rid of the cold."
Chen Yun handed the warm ginger tea to his brothers, feeling extremely distressed when he saw them. Fortunately, the school holidays had begun, otherwise, going to school every day would have been an extremely tiring task.
"Well, wait for us for a moment."
After washing up, I came back to discuss something with them. School was out, and the capital had been experiencing prolonged and heavy rain, with signs of flooding. They needed to make plans early, as the capital didn't know how long the downpour would last. The courtyard was already quite dangerous, so it would be best to move to higher ground.
"What are you planning?"
After waiting for a long time, Wen Maidong didn't want to beat around the bush and directly asked for the answer he wanted to know most.
"We need to move. This place is no longer safe. Firstly, there's a possibility of being flooded. Secondly, it seems Chi Yan and the others have been targeted recently, and we're in danger too."
Chen Feng looked at Niuniu, feeling slightly worried. They couldn't guarantee if there was any real danger, but they didn't dare to take any risks. Niuniu's safety was too important, and no one dared to take any risks.
"Transfer? Then, where are we transferring to?"
Shen Yun was extremely calm. She had already prepared herself mentally. However, she still needed to know the transfer location, otherwise the uneasiness in her heart would always exist.
"Go back to Xiashan Village."
Returning to Xiashan Village was the safest place Shen Feng could think of. With the capital city becoming unsafe, they could use this break to return to the village and weather the storm. The people above needed to sort out the hidden dangers at all levels, and they also needed to protect themselves and not be exposed.
"Why are you planning on returning to Xiashan Village?"
"Xiashan Village is our territory. We don't need to worry too much on our own territory."
Chen Feng thought that Xiashan Village was definitely the safest place. His sister had been feeling really down lately, so it was perfect for her to go back and recuperate for a while. The family factory was starting up, and all the news from their father was good news. Chen Feng and Shen Yu agreed that the time was right to go back.
"I don't have any problems,"
Chen Yun raised her hand to signal that she would follow their instructions. Her brothers were doing this for her own good, and Chen Yun herself was not stubborn and followed their ideas.
"Can't we stay in the capital?"
Wen Maidong was still a little reluctant, he wanted to try to keep Niuniu. But there was no other way, he couldn't go with her to Xiashan Village, he also had his own things to do.
"No, the capital is no longer safe. Dad and I have discussed it and it's safer for Niuniu to return to Xiashan Village."
At least, they were all acquaintances, so any stranger entering the village would be subject to certain restrictions. Furthermore, no matter how dangerous it was, Xiashan Village was a safe fortress. In the village, they could completely guarantee Niuniu's safety and prevent her from being in any danger.
"Okay...so when are you leaving?"
"Tomorrow! Pack your luggage today and catch the earliest train back to the village tomorrow."
Shen Feng likes to make a quick decision and eliminate the source of the problem cleanly and efficiently. Trouble comes from not eliminating the source, so he is used to making a quick decision.
