Chapter 77 Gathering Food

After finding the phone number, Liu Kaiyuan immediately went to town. As the phone connected, Liu Kaiyuan was a little nervous. “Hello, who is this?” Liu Kaiyuan took a deep breath, organized his thoughts, and said, “Uncle, it’s Kaiyuan.” The person on the other end of the line remained silent for a while before exclaiming, “Kaiyuan, you finally decided to call your uncle. Did something happen?” Liu Kaiyuan was very touched. He had only met his uncle once but had a good feeling about him. “Uncle, something unexpected happened before, and I didn’t make it to see my mother for the last time. It’s my biggest regret. Now, I don’t want to miss the woman I love.

” Gu Yuan Kang on the other side felt a pang of sadness hearing Liu Kaiyuan’s words. He always felt something was strange about what happened back then, and thinking about the news he just received made him furious. “Kaiyuan, it was my fault back then. If I hadn’t been arguing with your mother, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.” Liu Kaiyuan never blamed his uncle. “Uncle, don’t say that. I’m calling this time because…” Liu Kaiyuan quickly explained the situation. “Kaiyuan, I can fulfill your request, but you also need to promise me one thing.

 I won’t interfere with who you want to marry, but I hope you’ll come here to inherit everything.” This wasn’t the first time Liu Kaiyuan heard these words. “Kaiyuan, I’ve already sent people to handle this matter. I’ll never marry or have children in my life.” Liu Kaiyuan understood the implication of Gu Yuan Kang’s words. “I promise, but I’ll decide the timing.” Hearing Liu Kaiyuan’s agreement, Gu Yuan Kang immediately laughed happily. They chatted for a while before hanging up. After taking care of this matter, Liu Kaiyuan felt much relieved.

 At this time, Ye Nanyi also arrived at the police station to find You Jie. “Ye Zhiqing, you’re here! I’ve been waiting for you.” Seeing Ye Nanyi sitting on the chair, You Jie quickly greeted her. “Yeah, Yu Zhiqing said you had something for me. I came to see what it was.” You Jie looked at his watch. “Ye Zhiqing, let’s talk over dinner.” They went to the state-owned restaurant together. Ye Nanyi unexpectedly saw Liu Kaiyuan leaving with a lunchbox. Seeing Ye Nanyi staring at Liu Kaiyuan, You Jie tentatively asked, “Do you know him?” Ye Nanyi nodded. “Yeah, he’s also an educated youth.” Ye Nanyi didn’t say anything else and went straight into the state-owned restaurant.

 You Jie, however, looked at Liu Kaiyuan thoughtfully. “Ye Zhiqing, we haven’t found Gu Jing’s body, but we found his shoes.” Ye Nanyi took a bite of her dumpling and understood You Jie’s meaning. “What are you worried about? Worried that Gu Jing is still alive?” Ye Nanyi asked back. You Jie didn’t beat around the bush and readily admitted it. Ye Nanyi wasn’t as worried. Although she didn’t know where the knife had injured Gu Jing, being injured and soaking in seawater, even if he was still alive, it wouldn’t be a threat. This was Ye Nanyi’s thought at the time, but it almost cost her her life later. You Jie was still a little uneasy. Gu Jing was a… “Is that all you wanted to talk about?” Ye Nanyi had finished her dumplings. If You Jie didn’t have anything else, she was going to check on Kang’er. “No, you can go ahead if you have something to do. I’ll go back to the police station later.”

 Ye Nanyi didn’t say anything more and went straight to find Kang’er. As soon as she got there, she found the door locked. “Girl, are you looking for the grandpa and grandson who live here?” Ye Nanyi nodded and asked, “Auntie, do you know where they went?” The auntie sighed. “Don’t look for them. The old man got sick ten days ago and left. The little one was taken away by someone, but I only know they went to Beijing. He asked me to tell you, if you see a sister looking for him, to tell her he’s waiting in Beijing.” Ye Nanyi felt a little disappointed. She hadn’t even had time to see Kang’er. But it was okay, she would be able to go to Beijing in a few years.

“Girl, what are you thinking about?” The auntie saw Ye Nanyi standing there lost in thought. “I’m fine. Thank you, auntie. I have something else to do, I’ll go now.” Ye Nanyi didn’t go far, she glanced at the locked door again, then headed towards the black market. “Ye Meizi, you’re finally back. I’ve been waiting for you!” As soon as Ye Nanyi entered the black market, she was startled by Gangzi. “You’re going to scare me to death! Take me to find your boss, Xing.” Gangzi put away his ruffian attitude. “Ye Meizi, you need to supply more goods this time. Otherwise, it won’t be enough.” Ye Nanyi thought she had left enough goods. How could they sell out so quickly? “Boss Xing, what have you been busy with lately?” Seeing Ye Nanyi arrive, Xing Jun immediately stood up.

“Ye Meizi, help! I need grain, a lot of grain.” Ye Nanyi hesitated. What if she provided too much? What about safety? “How much do you need? Can you tell me where to send it?” Xing Jun didn’t hide anything. “Send it to the northwest. They’re really short on grain there.” Ye Nanyi knew the northwest was short on grain, but why did he need so much? “Boss Xing, I won’t ask why. To be honest, I can get you the grain, but I’m worried someone might find out.” After knowing Ye Nanyi could get the grain, Xing Jun wasn’t worried anymore. As for Ye Nanyi’s concern about safety, that wasn’t a problem.

“Don’t worry, the channels I use, no one will find out. Even if they investigate, they’ll think I got it from other sources.” Ye Nanyi checked the grain in her space.

 She had already stored a lot. If she didn’t sell it, she wouldn’t be able to handle it. And those soybeans, they were growing a little too fast in this space! “It’s the same as before. You go collect the grain tomorrow morning. This time, I don’t want money, I want all gold.” This wasn’t much to ask. Since Xing Jun wanted to buy grain from Ye Nanyi, he had been preparing. “How much are you planning to get?” Ye Nanyi held up two fingers. “Twenty thousand jin of grain, and five thousand jin of soybeans.” Hearing this number, Xing Jun’s heart skipped a beat. This time, he was going to make a great contribution. He’d see what his father had to say.

“Okay, you go prepare then. I’ll go find someone to deliver the gold.” Ye Nanyi didn’t plan to stay long. She still had to rush to put away the grain. Seeing her leave, Xing Jun immediately made an internal call. “Big brother, I’ve collected all the grain. You get ready to receive it!” Xing Jun hung up the phone after speaking. He excitedly took Gangzi to his private residence. Xing Yu on the other end of the phone hadn’t even reacted. “Xing Yu, what are you spacing out for? Who called you? You just hung up after saying one sentence.” Xing Yu slowly put down the phone, his face full of disbelief. “It was my brother. He said to get ready to receive the grain. I thought I heard wrong. You think he’s messing with me, his big brother?”
