Zhou Jinru sighed. He didn't know what Hong's state was now, so he shrugged, expressing his helplessness.
Shi Huaiya stretched out her hand and Zhou Jinru pulled her up. The eldest lady, whose legs were numb after sitting for too long, tilted and the two of them bumped into each other.
"Going to the cafeteria to eat?"
"Not hungry."
Zhou Jinru nodded: "Then let's go for a walk on the deck."
Shihuaiya agreed to his proposal.
The two people came to the deck one after another. It was the peak time for meal changes and shift changes, so the deck was empty.
The cold wind blew on his face, blowing away the heat. Zhou Jinru felt much refreshed. He held the guardrail with both hands and looked down. One after another transport trucks came from a distance and lined up to enter the Rhode Island mainland. Inside the ship.
"what are these?"
Shi Huaiya stood beside him and said softly: "Guoyuan Rock, a large amount of Solid Source Rock, is used for daily energy consumption or purified into basic raw materials for equipment strengthening devices."
Zhou Jinru asked unexpectedly: "Are they all shipped from Chernobog?"
Shi Huaiya's beautiful big eyes showed a look like looking at a fool: "Are you crazy? Chernobog is now completely under the control of the integration movement. How could Rhode Island escape from under others' noses?" Digging solid source rock? And this energy resource is everywhere, as long as there are source stone veins, solid source rock will be continuously produced."
"Look at me, I'm stupid again."
Zhou Jinru laughed to himself. He looked at the darkened sky and the bright stars. Could it be that stars could also be seen in Terra?
"Are you still used to it these days in Rhode Island?"
"Just make do with it, it's more comfortable than being in Longmen anyway."
Shi Huaiya's tone was very relaxed, but Zhou Jinru knew that her experiences were not as relaxing as what she said now.
"It seems that I can no longer count on your 1.8 million dragon gate coin piano."
"You are interested in my money." Shi Huaiya gave him a sharp look and changed the subject, "But Rhode Island is not short of money now. It has just completed a crisis contract and has sufficient funds and material reserves. You can definitely supply supplies in Syracuse, and there are also large and small infected communities nearby that can provide a lot of medical expenses. I suspect you are crying for poverty."
"Yes, yes, Miss Shi Huaiya has sharp eyes, and she can see through my little trick at a glance. There is a saying in my hometown that being with a rich woman will save you twenty years of hard work. Now there is one in front of me, can I not Hurry up? Our life in Rhode Island is very tight. If I don’t seek some benefits for the operators, I’m afraid they will throw me out of here one day.”
Zhou Jinru vomited a lot, and suddenly found that Shi Huaiya next to him didn't answer. He realized something was wrong, and secretly cursed himself for saying something about cultural differences, but he couldn't remember it.
Of course it's okay to say this in my hometown. Everyone is a fool and I don't take it to heart at all. But here, there is a rich and powerful girl next to me. Even if she loses power for a while, her future prospects are limitless. As the saying goes, the speaker The unintentional listener has an intention, but if he fails, he will take it seriously.
He tried to explain: "Don't get me wrong, I was just joking..."
"I know."
Shi Huaiya blushed. She forced herself not to look at Zhou Jinru and whispered: "If, I mean if, one day you are tired of everything in Rhode Island and can come to Longmen to find the Shi Huaiya family, I will do it for you." You prepare for many opportunities, whether it is doing business or entering politics, it should not be difficult based on your ability, but, but if you have other needs... You know, although I don't care, but I have a big family, it is inevitable that there will be some Conservative elders will care about family status..."
She realized what she was saying, and her already flushed face became even redder. Her eyes were dull, and she patted her face in a panic, shouting: "Oh, doctor, I must have drunk too much just now, hahahahahaha, Don’t take it to heart, just think I’m talking nonsense!”
She wanted to run away and quickly find a corner to hide in. She was so dizzy when she just said those words. The doctor's eyes were clear and he looked at the operator without any desire. He spoke politely and appropriately, whether it was during working hours or in his spare time. Maintaining a certain distance, his behavior was completely different from that of more than a year ago.
Shi Huaiya's mind was racing with thoughts. At this time, she also thought clearly that Zhou Jinru was just making a joke. He realized that the joke had gone too far and wanted to stop it in time, but he was really thinking too much.
Oh, it’s so embarrassing, I really want to die.
Shi Huaiya's breathing quickened, and she was embarrassed and could neither stand nor walk. She was even more afraid that Zhou Jinru would regard her as a frivolous woman.
Zhou Jinru's hearty laughter came from the side: "Okay, if one day Rhode Island eradicates Originium Disease and solves Originium Natural Disaster, and I lose my job, then I will go to Longmen Street to set up a barbecue stall and invite you to Miss Shihuaiya, please take care of the business so that I don’t starve to death on the street.”
As he spoke, he made a motion of turning the skewers and shouted in a decent manner, as if he was a street vendor now.
It’s a joke again, I know it every day!
Shi Huaiya was amused by his funny actions. She laughed so hard that she even shed tears.
The eldest lady was out of breath and said: "I'm very curious about what happened in the more than a year since you left."
"It's not that big of a deal. I've experienced a lot, and later I forgot everything I should have forgotten. It's just right now."
Zhou Jinru made a chest-expanding movement, opened his arms, and the wind blew up his uniform. Shi Huaiya looked a little distracted. He had really changed. There was no pretense at all. He still had the same face. It was still the same tone, but he was no longer the person she once hated.
"You know, we are going to Colombia. We will leave in a week. We may celebrate the New Year there. If you have anything to buy, you can go back to Longmen tomorrow."
Shi Huaiya nodded: "I heard, it's an invitation from Beautiful New World Trading Company, right? You have to be careful about its actual controller, Lin Xiaoxi."
"Alexander Ivanov?"
"Don't use this name. Only people who have a very bad relationship with him would call him that. He hates the Ursus Empire very much, saying it is a decadent, dirty country full of stench."
Shi Huaiya further explained: "My family has had several large-scale transactions with Brave New World, and has had contact with this legendary businessman. This is a man who can do anything for profit. He has neither inherited Ursus nor... The glory of the traditional nobles is not as strict as the people of the Yan Kingdom. In recent years, with the rise of Colombia, his ambitions have gradually expanded. At this time, you must be extremely careful when seeking help from Rhode Island."
