Chapter 72 Big Brother is Big Brother
The family finished their breakfast with a huff and puff. Anyang took his two twin brothers to deliver breakfast to Chen Hongyan, while Anxin followed Bai Yichen into the jeep. The man stepped on the accelerator and drove him to the alley where Kaizi rented the car.
An Xin got out of the car at the entrance of the alley and waved to the man who rolled down the window.
"I'm leaving now. Be careful when you drive to work!"
The man sat in the driver's seat. The early morning twilight shone through the car window, making his angular profile look even more handsome. He lifted the strands of hair on his forehead and spoke slowly.
"Okay, I understand. If anything happens, remember to call the number I left for you. They will find a way to notify me."
An Xin looked up at the sky, then walked into the alley, talking as she walked.
"Well, that's it, see you tonight!"
"Um!"
Bai Yichen nodded, sat motionless in the driver's seat, staring at An Xin's receding back, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and slowly lit it for himself.
Only after An Xin's back disappeared in the alley did Bai Yichen put the cigarette in his mouth, started the car, and drove towards another alley. The jeep stopped at the gate of a yard and Bai Yichen got out.
I arrived at the gate of the yard and knocked on it gently. Soon, I heard footsteps and impatient voices in the yard.
"Who is it, so early in the morning? Wait a minute!"
After he finished speaking, there was a faint sound of a basin hitting the ground. A few minutes later, Hu Zi opened the door with a circle of water stains on his forehead. Seeing Bai Yichen outside the door, he opened his mouth in surprise and said incoherently.
"Brother, why are you here so early in the morning?"
Normally speaking, Bai Yichen would come over in the afternoon or after work, and he would always say hello in advance before coming.
I didn't expect that you would come here without saying a word today, and come so early.
Of course Bai Yichen would not tell Hu Zi that he had stayed in the provincial capital last night.
Instead, he walked straight into the yard. After looking around, he found that the yard was quiet. He couldn't help but frowned and asked Hu Zi.
"Brothers, where have you been?"
There are many brothers living in this yard. It's usually noisy when they come here on weekdays, with a bunch of little boys fighting and laughing in the yard, making it a mess. Why is it so quiet this morning?
After hearing Bai Yichen's question, Hu Zi stepped forward, scratched his head, and said embarrassedly.
"Hey, brother, those brats haven't gotten up yet."
Even when he heard the knock on the door just now, it was because he had to pee in the morning and got up to pee and happened to pass by the front door. He came to open the door after hearing the knock. Otherwise, he would have planned to go back to take a nap.
Anyway, the room is full of a bunch of young and energetic guys, and they don't have much to do on weekdays. If they don't sleep in early in the morning, getting up will only waste food.
Bai Yichen didn't say anything, but just found a place and sat down slowly. Hu Zi asked nervously.
"Brother, you came here so early today, is there something going on? Should I ask the brothers to get up quickly now? I'll follow your orders!"
Unexpectedly, Bai Yichen waved his hand and said disapprovingly.
"Let them be. It's a rare opportunity to sleep in, so don't disturb them."
Hu Zi: “So, you just came here to take a look?
His eldest brother came over early in the morning and asked where his brothers were. It's hard not to believe that he was just here to hang out.
But what Hu Zi didn't believe was that the fact was really like this. Bai Yichen just passed by and strolled here today. He raised his eyes and asked lightly:
"It's okay, just came to take a look."
Hu Zi: “…”
Seeing Hu Zi standing there quietly, looking restrained, Bai Yichen asked again.
"By the way, how are the goods that were brought back during this period being handled?"
Finally, the business was brought up. Hu Zi's uneasy heart finally had a solution, and he quickly answered truthfully.
"It's going well. The shipping speed is faster than last time. Two-thirds of the goods have been sold. I believe that in a few days, the batch of goods on hand will be sold out quickly."
This should be the official reason why his eldest brother came here today!
Unfortunately, Hu Zi guessed wrong again this time, Bai Yichen continued to ask.
"By the way, what use has our truck had during this time?"
He did not forget that An Xin was doing freight transportation these days. If the truck they had happened to be in the provincial capital and they had nothing to do.
So he would try to get off work earlier today, get the truck over there, and be able to make one or two trips with An Xin, which would be considered a bit of help.
Hu Zi thought Bai Yichen was going to ask about the sales and profit information of this batch of goods, but he didn't expect the other party to change the subject and talk about the truck again. He was a little confused, but still answered truthfully.
"The truck was driven by Sanzi to the south of the city to deliver goods. It may not be back until the afternoon."
His eldest brother never cared about this truck, so why did he suddenly bring it up today?
Just when Hu Zi was full of doubts, he heard Bai Yichen slam the table, and his voice seemed to reveal joy.
"Come back in the afternoon, that's great. When Sanzi drives the truck back in the afternoon, fill up the truck with gas and leave it in the yard. I need it urgently."
Hu Zi looked at Bai Yichen's delighted expression and spoke in confusion.
"You're in a hurry? Don't you always drive the jeep your team has? Why do you have to use a truck?"
This jeep is much more comfortable to drive than their truck and is much more upscale.
Besides, since we bought this truck, it has always been used by our brothers to purchase and sell goods. His eldest brother has never touched this truck. Why did he suddenly become interested in it today? He said he needed it for something urgent.
Looking at Hu Zi's face full of question marks, Bai Yichen said casually.
"Don't worry about this. Just do as I tell you. Remember to leave the truck to me."
The eldest brother is the eldest brother. Does he need to report to others when he does things?
Hu Zi is quite efficient and careful in his work, but he has the bad habit of getting to the bottom of things, and he can't change it.
Seeing the displeasure on Bai Yichen's face, Hu Zi struggled internally for a moment, but in the end he did not continue to explore the matter and compromised.
"Well... okay then!"
The car was originally bought by Bai Yichen personally. Isn't it just a matter of words whether he uses it or not?
Why is he so worried? I'd better worry about it now. I'm going to take a nap later. Will I be able to sleep?
The matter was settled, Bai Yichen stood up and prepared to go out.
"Okay, Huzi, go back to sleep. I have to go back to the countryside to work."
Hu Zi stood in the yard, watched the man leave, yawned, and waved.
"Well then, take care, big brother!"
Then he went back and continued to sleep soundly, hugging his pillow.
