The three of them arrived at the second floor of the airport pick-up lobby. On the second floor were more than a dozen merchants and a food area with rows of seats. Unfortunately, the doors of all the numerous merchants were closed.
Chen Yuanyuan and the other three found a secluded corner and were preparing to have lunch. Unexpectedly, a store was open for business today.
"If you need to buy lunch, I only have noodles with scallion oil for one hundred yuan a serving." The owner of a noodle shop shouted loudly.
Chen Yuanyuan estimated that the noodle shop owner also came back to start work under the arrangement of the airport. Otherwise, who would be willing to sell the food when supplies are in short supply.
As soon as the people resting in the food area heard the boss's shouts, they immediately swarmed over.
Although there were many people sitting in the food area, they were queuing up under the patrol of the special police, so it was not too chaotic.
But the aroma of scallion oil attracted most of the people waiting on the first floor.
Chen Yuanyuan thought that it would be inconvenient to take out a bunch of delicious food in her backpack in front of everyone, so she suggested moving to another place.
"When I just passed by, I saw there were several lounges downstairs. Why don't you take a look? If no one is there, just go in." He Yuehua said.
"Okay, let's go." Liu Feiyang picked up his backpack and said.
The three of them came to the row of lounges pointed by He Yuehua. As expected, the lounges had already been occupied.
Chen Yuanyuan looked at the row of benches in the distance and saw that there was no one there. She was about to go there, but she didn't expect to be stopped when she turned around.
"Is it Yuanyuan?" A man walked out of the lounge.
"Eric? You are here too." When Chen Yuanyuan looked at the person, it turned out to be Zheng Jiayu.
We haven’t seen each other since I asked him to help me buy a boat last time. I didn’t expect to meet him at the airport.
"Are you also picking people up at the airport?" Zheng Jiayu asked.
"Yeah, I'm looking for a place to have lunch." He Yuehua said.
"If you don't mind, come to my lounge. My assistant went to the car to get lunch. I asked him to get more." After Zheng Jiayu said that, he immediately sent a message to Assistant Zhao.
"It's okay, we brought food," Chen Yuanyuan said.
"It's okay. Come in and sit down first. I'm worried that there are still four hours left. It's too boring to be around without people." Zheng Jiayu said.
As soon as he entered the lounge, Zheng Jiayu asked two bodyguards in the room to guard the door. Chen Yuanyuan thought that as one of the four wealthy families, he could still bring bodyguards when he came in and out after the apocalypse.
After a while, Assistant Zhao also brought two large bags of food to the break room. He took out pan-fried yellow croaker, boiled shrimp, fried scallops, braised pork with pickled vegetables and some white rice from the bag, and then exited the break room.
Although it is a very ordinary home-cooked dish, it is considered delicious in the apocalypse.
"Hey, it's seafood again. I'm almost scared to eat it." Zheng Jiayu said.
"If you don't mind, you can try some of our dishes." Chen Yuanyuan took out salad, vegetable wraps, cold preserved eggs, seaweed rice and a box of tomatoes from the space.
"Wow, your food is so fresh!" Zheng Jiayu's eyes lit up when he tasted the fresh food.
"Well, we grew some vegetables at home." Chen Yuanyuan said.
Chen Yuanyuan saw Zheng Jiayu happily eating salad, and couldn't help but curiously asked about Zheng Jiayu's situation.
Zheng Jiayu explained that the Zheng family bought a small island in Xiangcheng as a vacation place a few months ago.
Just before the typhoon came, Mr. Zheng took his family with him to celebrate Children's Day on the island to celebrate his great-grandson's moving into a new home. Unexpectedly, this trip happened to allow the Zheng family to take refuge.
Fortunately, a lot of ingredients were prepared for the celebration party, and the island also had its own power system, so life was going pretty well.
Although everything sounds like a coincidence, Chen Yuanyuan is also grateful that Zheng Jiayu can survive the difficulties safely.
After lunch, Liu Feiyang and He Yuehua planned to walk outside and pay attention to the latest news on flights.
"How are you doing? Do you need help?" Zheng Jiayu asked.
"I took them to move to the community where I lived when I was a child. They are living well," Chen Yuanyuan said.
"Have you returned to Fairview Garden?" Zheng Jiayu asked.
"Yes, how did you know that I live in Jinxiu Garden?" Chen Yuanyuan asked suspiciously.
"Ah? This is not what you said last time." Zheng Jiayu said awkwardly.
"Is there any?" Chen Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes and stared at the chaotic Zheng Jiayu.
"Yes, why don't you consider coming to the island for a while? There is still chaos everywhere. On the island we can have electricity, we don't have to worry about water for food, and the first batch of vegetables will be grown soon." Zheng Jiayu He hurriedly changed the subject.
"Let's stay in the North District first. It's too troublesome to move around. Maybe it will be fine after a while." Chen Yuanyuan said.
"Don't take chances on that. In fact, the old man received the news a few months ago. It is estimated that these extreme weather will continue for some time." Zheng Jiayu said.
"Real or false? Where did you get the news?" Chen Yuanyuan asked pretending to be surprised.
"I don't know either. I didn't believe it at first, but the old man really saved the whole family this time." Zheng Jiayu said.
"Will there be another typhoon after that? Or will it be like a tornado in the United States?" Chen Yuanyuan asked tentatively.
"These old men don't know either, so you must not relax," Zheng Jiayu said.
Chen Yuanyuan briefly tested Zheng Jiayu's tone, but apart from the extreme weather, there was not much news.
Seeing that Chen Yuanyuan had no intention of taking refuge on the island, Zheng Jiayu left a phone number for Chen Yuanyuan.
"This is the Zheng family's satellite phone. You can keep it for now. If you need anything in the future, find a way to contact me. Maybe it can be used." Zheng Jiayu said.
Chen Yuanyuan actually thought about buying a satellite phone when she was stocking up. However, after the end of the last world, satellite phones were restricted to military equipment, and very few people could use them.
A base is basically equipped with only four or five units, and civilian satellite phones have ceased service as early as the beginning of the century.
Unexpectedly, the Zheng family could still obtain a satellite phone. It seemed that they had underestimated the power of the Zheng family in China.
Among the four wealthy families in Xiangcheng, the Li family relied on the retail industry to get rich, the Liu family started in real estate, the Xiang family developed in the entertainment industry, and the Zheng family relied on the import and export trade with many years of history.
The Zheng family had been doing business in the capital since the Qing Dynasty. Later, the family moved south to develop and became the first Chinese-owned foreign trade exporter in Xiangcheng at that time. It was the oldest family among the four wealthy families.
Although the Zheng family has been committed to developing diversified industries in various aspects in recent years, times have come and gone. In recent years, masks have dealt a huge blow to the Zheng family's business, and their asset ranking has fallen to the bottom of the four wealthy families.
But an emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention that the Zheng family has only lost a little fat, and is still far away from being emaciated to death.
The long family history, coupled with the low-key and unpredictable behavior of the Zheng family, makes the Zheng family very important among wealthy families.
