Chapter 91 Not Going (23)
Huang Jinghe called his parents early in the morning. Presumably because they weren't busy yet, the call was quickly connected. Huang Jinghe excitedly asked, "Dad, I just received news that the J City base is complete. What about the Beijing City base? Is it finished? Can Sister Lan and I go there now?"
"No, the base here is quite large and won't be completed quickly. You and Sister Lan should stay in J City for a while longer. Don't run around everywhere. Just stay in the community. I'll notify you as soon as I arrive. Are you still worried that your parents might miss you?"
Huang Jinghe wasn't disappointed. "That's not the case. I'm just excited. I don't know what the base looks like."
"That's not the case. Okay, your mom and I will be busy now. We'll contact you as soon as we have any news."
Huang's father and mother hung up the phone quickly, and Huang Jinghe told Lan Jin about this matter as soon as he hung up the phone.
Lan Jin wasn't in a rush. After all, the heavy rains hadn't arrived yet, and she didn't want to be trapped by the water halfway through. So even if the house was finished, she would go back later. So, she said, "Let's just wait for news. This is our home anyway, so it's okay to stay a little longer."
…
After breakfast, the four people who wanted to practice boxing gathered on the 32nd floor and set off to the boxing gym together.
However, after the four of them met, they did not discuss the news they received in the group. It seemed that everyone had their own ideas about this matter.
It's one thing that the four of them didn't mention it, but it's another thing that people in the community are talking about it everywhere.
Because of the earlier arrangements, the staff had been actively recruiting residents to go to the base early in the morning. Now that they were acting together, the staff in the community seemed to have seen a group of fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered. Their eyes were so excited that anyone who saw them would think that they had bad intentions.
But she didn't think so. She walked forward with a silly smile on her face and started to talk nonsense: "Have you seen the group message? The J City base has been built. It's just over XX Road. There's water, electricity, and air conditioning there. It's a really nice place compared to here. If you have a car, you can go by yourselves. If you don't have a car, there will be a car to take everyone there safely next Monday. It's also not expensive to stay there. Ten kilograms of food per person is enough for the accommodation fee."
The staff members sounded as if they had already agreed to go to the base immediately.
But the conditions at the base are indeed very attractive. There is water, electricity and air conditioning, which is much better than the environment here in the community.
However, she didn't think about how many people could afford the ten kilograms of food as accommodation fee. No matter what happened in this life, she remembered that there were not many people who left in the first group in the previous life.
But no matter what, Lan Jin was not going, so naturally she didn't want to listen.
Seeing Lan Jin's unhappy expression, Nana beside him immediately walked between the two of them and yelled at the staff, "Wangwang."
Nana's bared teeth really scared the staff. She immediately stepped back and said, "Big sister, please hold your dog tightly, don't bite anyone."
"My dog doesn't bite."
This is a must-have term for dog owners, but in reality, no one can control whether a dog bites or not. Of course, her dog is different. A dog that has drunk spiritual spring water is definitely not an ordinary dog, so she doesn't feel any burden when saying this.
But the staff didn't believe it. "You dog owners say that, and then you say it wasn't intentional after it bites someone. Anyway, sister, hold your dog on the leash and stop biting me. I don't know if there's a rabies vaccine available right now."
After saying that, the staff member handed the flyer-like paper to the group of them and said in a strong tone, "This has the base address. Think about how to get there. Go register with me first."
Lan Jin looked at her blankly, then said, "I didn't say I was going. I'm not going to the base."
After Lan Jin refused, Huang Jinghe immediately refused as well: "I won't go to the base either."
Since they weren't considering going, they naturally refused on the spot. But as soon as they finished speaking, Ling Jiang and Lao Gao also said, "We're not going to the base either."
When the staff member heard that they were not going to the base, her previously friendly attitude suddenly changed. Inviting one person to the base was a reward of one pack of instant noodles. If all four of them, one child, and one dog were included, that would be six packs of instant noodles. Seeing that all six packs of instant noodles had been wasted, and they had no food for several days, how could she smile? "No, the base is so good, why don't you go? We will all go there later."
Lan Jinli ignored her and turned around and left with the dog.
Because of the dogs, the staff were afraid of being bitten and didn't dare to get close to them. But she was unwilling to waste time, and now she shouted angrily: "Why didn't you say so earlier? You're wasting my time."
Ling Jiang had a bad temper and wanted to go back and argue with her, but before he could even open his mouth, Lao Gao pulled him back and said, "Come on, why are you arguing with her?"
Ling Jiangren left, but Qi'er was still unhappy. She said indignantly, "This person deserves to be punished. I should go over and beat her up. What kind of attitude is that? Everyone knows that she gets a reward for recruiting people. Look at the way her face changes. Others can't change their faces as quickly as she can."
After saying this, Ling Jiang thought they didn't know, so he explained, "My boss told me that if you invite someone to the base, you can get a pack of instant noodles as a reward. This reward is paid immediately, as long as you register and you can get it. Who doesn't want to eat these days? But this is not the way to do it."
"But can't this be faked? I've registered it now. When she gets the instant noodles, if I don't go there, she won't get the instant noodles for free." Lan Jin asked doubtfully.
"No, it's registration, but you also need to swipe your residence permit. What's the use of just writing it on paper? So this can't be fake. There are instructions from above, and indicators have been issued to the people below. These are all tasks, but this is not how things are done." After Ling Jiang finished speaking, he was still angry.
But Lao Gao was a little puzzled and asked, "Why don't you two go to the base? The conditions there are pretty good."
The two of them didn't explain much. Although they had been quite happy for the past half month, it was just happiness. This happiness was based on no interests or money. Huang Jinghe understood this and concealed some of it. Lan Jin would not mention it either. "The base has just been built, and we don't know what the situation is. We want to wait for others to move in first to see how it goes. Besides, it's not like we can't live in our own house now."
