Dimensional Store System In Apocalypse

Chapter 114: Jokes Taken Seriously

"Yes, Mr. Zhang?" Robert answered the phone call without delay. As a professional driver, he reserved the phone and number for that client alone and everyone related to that client. It was a reliable practice that brought him this far in this field of work.

"Mr. Robert. Are you available for today? I would like you to bring me around. Somewhere with business potential would be great. Do you know anyone that possibly give me some idea on what was the best to do around here in Xiyang City?" Zhang Qin Feng asked.

"I do have one person in mine. She's my ex-colleague that's been freelancing for a while in doing consultation regarding investment. Shall I give her a call and see if she's available?" Robert replied. As a driver, not only he has to be resourceful but also knowing the correct people.

In this field, each client might be a hidden dragon that came from a neighboring country. Even Zhang Qin Feng, who looked simple from his appearance, might be a millionaire back in his country.

(He's not one yet, but who knows? Remember he has like 50kg worth of scrap gold back in the apocalypse? I'm thinking about how the story about his journey to sell gold illegally can be written. It will be through the contact Wang Yufei gives him before he gets into the flight. The idea is there, but not the storyline)

"Please contact her on my behalf. If this goes well, I'll make sure that your commission will be a sweet one." Zhang Qin Feng sounded happier in his tone while replying.

After making sure they set a time to meet up at the Grand Season Hotel's lobby, Zhang Qin Feng went to prepare himself. Taking that phone out again to check if he missed anything, there are only a few text messages from Wang Yufei.

'Busy? How's the weather over there? Do remember to drink more water and do not eat spicy food when you're there. Take some time to get used to their local food and build up your stomach resistance there.'

'I've hidden a box of gastric and stomach medication inside your luggage bag. If you get a stomachache, just open the compartment to look for the medicine. I've missed you already, you know?'

'It's getting busy tonight. I had a fifty-table reservation for a wedding dinner. The restaurant is doing quite well. I heard that the manufacturing industry over there is quite good. What are you looking to do over there? Opening an instant noodle factory, perhaps?'

'I was just joking… I saw you buying quite many instant noodles, so I make a joke like this. Don't get angry, alright?'

It seems that the last text message was deliberately sent to make fun of him. But since he was in the post-apocalypse during that time, it was perceived that he was angry by the message.

"Dururu…" feeling that he should give her a call, Zhang Qin Feng postponed his washing and dialed Wang Yufei's number.

"Feng-Feng?" she answered the call in a cutesy manner.

"I was in the middle of something yesterday. Have you eaten?" Zhang Qin Feng lied. He's indeed in the middle of something when her text arrived, and it was life-threatening. Surrounded by hundreds of zombies coming for his brain, if he were to talk in detail.

"I'm on a diet. Yesterday, the bride allowed me to try wearing the wedding gown, and guess what?" Wang Yufei sound like she was pouting while replying to him.

"What? Too loose?" Zhang Qin Feng jokes. Since she says she's starting to go on a diet, it has to be that she gained some weight. Saying that the gown was too loose is just the opposite meaning to prevent making Wang Yufei feel bad.

"TOO TIGHT!" she shouted at the phone.

"You don't love me. You're a meanie. How can my boyfriend never noticed that I got fatter?" Wang Yufei continued. But the sound of she's eating something is noticeable afterward.

"And you're still eating… I thought you said you're on a diet…" Zhang Qin Feng wanted to slap his forehead. How can Wang Yufei say she was on a diet and still eating while speaking with him on the phone? But it was understandable because it was lunchtime at Dongcheng right now.

"It's salad, ok? Salad won't make a beautiful girl like me fatter. Are you going anywhere today?" Wang Yufei replied and asked if he had a plan this afternoon.

"Yeah. My driver had a contact that provides consultation for people interested in investing in this Xiyang City. I'll be looking forward to seeing what she had in her hand while we meet later." Zhang Qin Feng replied.

"A girl? Hehe…" Wang Yufei chuckled. From her naughty response, she was hinting at something else.

"A female. What are you thinking there?" Zhang Qin Feng placed the phone on the loudspeaker and brushed his teeth while he was on the phone. From the look of it, this call won't end here after they started to get naughtier.

"I didn't think about anything… Well, maybe a little? Who asked my boyfriend to be a handsome guy like you? I'm a little worried." Wang Yufei continued.

"I would pounce at you if I'm there. How dare you tease me here while I'm on a business matter. The driver will come along too. It's his contact, after all. I promised him a good bonus if the consultation works out between us." he said.

"Then… Do you know what you wanna do? Are you still going to try your hand with Digital Currency again?" Wang Yufei asked. She's been trying hard to not mention the incident that happened at the mining workshop. But she accidentally touched that topic today.

"I might, but at a different approach. Also, didn't you already give me a suggestion on what I should try to do?" Zhang Qin Feng chuckled. From his reply, he wanted to make Wang Yufei guess what he's thinking.

"My suggestion? What do you mean?"

"Wait… Wait!"

"Don't tell me, you're really going to start an instant noodle factory?"

"I WAS JUST JOKING!!!" Wang Yufei screamed.
