My girlfriend is from 1949

next day

Chen Huai'an got up early and took out his phone to reply to the messages one by one.

I've been away for a few days, and my phone has been switched off the whole time.

Although a message was sent to the group in advance explaining that we were going to the mountains for a few days.

However, the messages of greeting continued to arrive.

In particular, when the topic of going into the mountains came up, Feng Chaoyang subtly inquired whether it was to collect antiques!

However, this trip to the Republic of China era could not make up for the regrets of many years.

Even going to work is a happy experience.

While others take time off to rest, Chen Huai'an goes to work in the Republic of China era.

But the moment I put on the yellow-green military uniform, going to work was more enjoyable than resting.

However, since graduating, I haven't had more than three consecutive days off in several years.

Even during the Lunar New Year, when people are seemingly on holiday at home, they are still using their mobile phones to conduct business; they are simply bringing their work home with them.

Even when I'm sick, I only rest for two days at most before gritting my teeth and continuing to go to work.

When cattle and horses are used to being on vacation, they suddenly feel a bit out of place when given a seven-day holiday like civil servants.

Chen Huai'an replied to each message one by one, and his schedule was full for the day.

He changed into a casual suit and picked up the foam insulated box from the coffee table.

Lin Wan and I took the elevator to the garage and drove to the warehouse.

Today is the eighth day since construction began, and according to the agreement, it should be delivered no later than today.

As the owner of the warehouse, it is natural for me to inspect it.

Without a warehouse, there's no way to store goods.

Chen Huai'an drove all the way to the warehouse entrance and saw a huge warehouse in the distance.

The outer layer of the metal reflects light in the sunlight.

They really went to great lengths to build this warehouse.

What should have been a job for one construction team was instead taken on by three.

Working overtime, they finally completed the line connection on the eighth day.

Basically, it's ready for use!

As soon as Chen Huai'an entered the gate, he saw Shandong Luneng standing to the side waiting.

He immediately got out of the car, extended both hands, and smiled warmly, saying, "Thank you so much for your help, Mr. Lu! You've worked so hard! The warehouse is finally finished; we can finally receive the goods!"

The voice was full of gratitude, but the last sentence was emphasized.

"Available to receive goods" means: Your goods can be delivered now!

This sentence is worth more than a thousand words, and even a hundred thousand insincere thanks cannot compare to this sincerity.

Shandong Luneng neglects its own company and comes here every day to act as a supervisor.

We're just hoping the warehouse can be completed and put into use as soon as possible.

Those canned goods that were close to their expiration date that we contacted before can be brought over!

That's all money!

There's a commission for every single can!

Every single day, without fail, I come here to oversee the project. Isn't that exactly what I'm waiting for?

Although I was incredibly excited, I still had to say the polite words.

"They're all family!"

Shandong Luneng patted their chests, making a loud, triumphant sound.

They just kept chatting about everyday things and asking if I had a good time during my trip.

From beginning to end, not a single word was mentioned about business.

We only talk about feelings and build relationships!

Around 10 o'clock, the hired inspection personnel also arrived.

After confirmation, the warehouse was finally settled.

The warehouse is now three times larger than before.

However, the amount of cargo that can be transported has also doubled.

Shanghai in another world has been liberated, and there's no longer a need to sneak around.

The base located in the mountain will take some time to complete its production capacity.

However, the open space outside is large enough to extract the area at once.

As for repackaging and transportation, the last thing they lack is manpower!

All traces are handled by a specially organized team.

Ensure that future information is not leaked.

If any emergency occurs, with 100,000 troops on the side, the supplies can be transferred using sheer numbers.

Looking at the enormous warehouse before him, Chen Huai'an felt as if the clouds had parted to reveal the clear sky.

The sun over there has finally risen!

Lin Wan looked at the newly built warehouse and a smile appeared on her face.

With this transit center, the New World can solve its lockdown problem!

Luneng, being a man of principle, stayed with them until the afternoon.

Just before leaving, he tentatively asked, "Brother, shall I notify them to ship the goods?"

Chen Huai'an nodded, reassuring him, "Cash on delivery!"

Canned food played a vital role in the Republic of China era and was a valuable commodity internationally.

The Soviet Union, in particular, placed great emphasis on heavy industry while neglecting light industry.

This led to a shortage of supplies, extremely tight food supplies in both urban and rural areas, and a severe shortage of consumer goods.

As long as there are enough canned fruit and meat products to trade, it wouldn't be a problem to have Big Brother send people over to build a few heavy industrial plants.

Chen Huai'an only complained that there weren't enough cheap, near-expiry canned goods, so how could he possibly owe money on them?

As Luneng made the call, the canneries got excited.

Once the inventory is cleared, we'll have money to pay the workers' wages!

Shandong Luneng patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, brother, I'll definitely urge them to deliver the goods as soon as possible!"

Chen Huai'an nodded slightly and took out a foam insulated box from the back of his car.

He smiled and said, "You've worked hard these past few days, Mr. Lu. A friend from the mountains sent some wild fish; please take it back and try it."

"Haha, you're too kind, brother!" Luneng didn't refuse and reached out to take the insulated box.

Only through give and take can feelings be strengthened, right?

However, after opening the lid and taking a look, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Chen Huai'an said with a smile, "President Lu has a good eye; no wonder you're a seasoned angler!"

Shandong Luneng immediately perked up when they heard about fishing.

He then shook his head regretfully: "I caught a wild river eel before, and the taste was simply amazing! It's a pity that it's the fishing ban period now, so I can't fish for them anymore."

Chen Huai'an laughed and said, "Then Mr. Lu should definitely take some back to try. It was just chilled, so the meat is still quite fresh!"

Then he reassured her, "Don't worry, it was caught in the mountains, so it's not within the fishing ban area."

Luneng raised an eyebrow and said in a low voice, "It's just the two of us here. Even if it was fished out of the Huangpu River, I'd eat it!"

They were trying to build a connection in their words, as if they were sharing the blame.

However, wild river eels are not protected animals, so even if you eat them during the fishing ban, you can get away with it by bribing someone and paying a fine.

From Shandong Luneng's perspective, sending such a sensitive gift shows that they consider him one of their own, and that's the most important thing!

More like... a test!

If we don't accept their money, then we're not on their side, and how can we cooperate and make money together in the future?

Luneng put the insulated box in the trunk and drove away happily.

After the fact that they had committed a crime, their relationship became even closer!

Watching the car lights disappear into the distance, Chen Huai'an laughed and said, "Let's go, we should go buy groceries, there's nothing in the fridge."

I was away for seven days, and all my meat and vegetables were gone.

Now, when I come back to cook, I have to go to the supermarket to buy groceries first.

"Okay." Lin Wan nodded and got into the car together.

Chen Huai'an found a supermarket and was just about to park when his phone rang.

After the call connected, Li Hao's voice came through: "Boss Chen, are you free tonight?"
