85: The Wang Family Crisis
Jing Hua was eavesdropping on the movements inside the room when she suddenly heard someone greet her from behind, startling her into a full-body shudder.
Luckily, it wasn't an enemy; if it were, she probably would have been headless by now.
Alas!
It's all because the performance was too captivating!
Jing Hua felt a bit embarrassed and asked, "Mr. Wang, my Master is inside having a... heart-to-heart talk with your Young Miss. Yes, a heart-to-heart. What business do you have?"
Wang Jiacheng felt puzzled. A heart-to-heart talk? Does it take this long?
This is their first meeting; what could they possibly need to discuss for such a long time?
My Little Daughter is spoiled; I wonder if she knows how to serve the Master?
He said aloud, "Since Boss Yang is still working, I won't disturb him!"
"I will come back to pay my respects once Boss Yang is finished!"
Jing Hua found it amusing. How could a heart-to-heart talk be considered work?
However, the phrase "pay my respects" was used well; it showed he knew his place. Truly a teachable child.
Jing Hua said, "No need, they've finished talking. They are probably getting dressed now."
As soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it. Didn't that expose the fact that she had been engaging in Bridal Chamber Eavesdropping?
Wang Jiacheng understood as well. Wow, why does this beautiful woman have such a habit?
He was also worried about his daughter's delicate body... "Understood, I shall wait here respectfully."
The door opened.
The Little Security Guard came out, accompanied by the Wang Family Young Miss.
Wang Jiacheng saw at a glance that his daughter's face was radiant with joy and boundless shyness.
Apart from her body being rather lithe, there were no signs of discomfort.
Instead, she seemed to have gained a deeper charm than before.
The Little Security Guard, however, wore a dignified expression, looking like someone who had seen it all.
Wang Jiacheng quickly stepped forward to pay his respects and asked if he was satisfied with the Mansion: "Mr. Yang, are you satisfied?"
The Little Security Guard smiled, "Yes, satisfied. Ajiao is a clever girl; she's self-taught..."
"Pfft!" Jing Hua couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Ajiao covered her face. Why would Brother mention that in front of Father?
She quickly replied, "What do you mean, self-taught?"
"Brother is the best teacher..."
Oh dear, as soon as she said it, she wished she could slap herself.
Why did she say that in front of Father?
Looking at her father again, he seemed not to have heard: "It's good that Elder Brother is satisfied with our villa, and my daughter introduced it well."
Zhu Yeqing, who was patrolling nearby, saw Boss come out and quickly approached to await instructions.
"Boss, a few people from other Gangs wanted to come and disturb the bridal chamber, but I escorted them away."
Boss Yang nodded.
Wang Jiacheng continued, "Mr. Yang, our two families have formed a marital alliance, and my family's assets have become your Grain Depot. Please fulfill your promise and protect our family's safety."
The Little Security Guard smiled, "Don't worry. As long as you are loyal to me, I treat my subordinates excellently."
"But if you betray me, the punishment will be a catastrophe."
The Master spoke lightly, but Wang Jiacheng's heart trembled, and cold sweat streamed down his back.
The Master is not someone to be trifled with!
This person, so young, can already wield both kindness and authority. A sense of dread involuntarily rose in his heart.
"Mr. Yang, my family's Industry has become your Grain Depot. I came here to invite you to inspect your Grain Depot."
The Little Security Guard nodded, "Alright, lead the way."
The Butler, Old Gourd, had already arranged for an electric cart for short-distance transportation.
Several people got onto the electric cart, with Old Gourd acting as the Driver.
They first visited the Livestock Farm adjacent to the villa.
High-voltage electric fences were installed all around, so although the Zombies broke out, they surprisingly failed to breach this place.
Countless cattle, sheep, and horses were grazing on the Pasture.
The Little Security Guard asked, "Old Mr. Wang, how many animals are in this Pasture?"
Wang Jiacheng bowed his head and reported, "Our Wang Family Breeding Base raises over ten thousand pigs, more than five thousand sheep, over two thousand cattle, and more than one hundred horses."
"These are round numbers. If you need specifics, I can have my subordinates bring the Ledger later for Mr. Yang to review."
The Little Security Guard said, "No need. I trust Mr. Wang."
Wang Jiacheng felt a surge of gratitude.
The Little Security Guard said, "I wonder how long these Meat Products can sustain us?"
Wang Jiacheng: "We have over a hundred people in the Bodyguard Team, plus over two hundred staff at the breeding farm and meat processing plant—a total of over three hundred people. They actually don't consume much food."
The Little Security Guard chuckled, "Hehe, enough for us to consume for over ten years!"
Wang Jiacheng sighed, "Alas, while our Wang Family looks impressive on the surface, we are actually facing severe crises!"
"Since the Natural Disaster, there is no market and no large-scale transportation, so our Meat Products can't be sold or transported out!"
"We can't find anywhere to buy the Rice and Flour Grain we need."
"Our Industry cannot continue to operate!"
"Plus the coveting of Zombies, Monsters, and major Jianghu powers. Without expert protection, we are likely meat on a chopping block—waiting to be slaughtered!"
The Little Security Guard smiled, "Hehe, now you don't have to worry about any problems!"
"Worried about no market? I currently have two bases: Azure Dragon Base has tens of thousands of people, and Xiao He Base has several thousand people. They are worried about not having meat to eat!"
"Worried about transportation? Azure Dragon Base can provide people and vehicles to help with transportation."
"Worried about buying Rice, Flour, and Vegetables? Azure Dragon Base can exchange fish, and Xiao He Base can provide Rice, Flour, and Vegetables and other grain in exchange."
Wang Jiacheng was overjoyed.
He had been worried about the Wang Family's survival!
Now, the Son-in-Law solved the problems of market, transportation, and rice/flour/vegetables all at once.
The Son-in-Law is too awesome.
"Boss Yang, your strength far exceeds our estimations!"
"So young, yet possessing superb Martial Arts, capable of commanding two bases—now three bases! This old man truly admires you immensely!"
Although he was the Son-in-Law, he still respectfully called him Boss Yang, not daring to presume intimacy.
Zhu Yeqing interjected, "Hehe, the longer you follow our Boss, the more you'll realize that our Boss's strength will always exceed your imagination."
Even the Number Two Person of Azure Dragon Base said so.
The Little Security Guard's image grew even taller in Wang Jiacheng's mind.
He felt that despite working in the Business World for many years and meeting countless people, he couldn't see through the Little Security Guard.
His many years of judging people were hardly effective now!
Ajiao felt a sweetness in her heart; everyone was praising her Husband.
She had only thought he was handsome, skilled in Martial Arts, and impressive in Technique, but she never expected him to have such great capability!
She could only keep pursing her lips and smiling, marveling that since the Apocalypse, she had managed to marry even better than before the Apocalypse.
The Butler driving the car cautiously said, "Mr. Yang is truly amazing!"
"The people in our Bodyguard Team have uneven skill levels; we were hoping to ask you to train them!"
"Today, all the major Jianghu powers have seen our Wang Family's Industry, and they will likely come to Robbery us sooner or later!"
"Since Mr. Yang is here today, they dare not act rashly, but if Mr. Yang leaves this place, they are constantly watching, and might come to Robbery us in the middle of the night someday!"
This was exactly Wang Jiacheng's Greatest Worry.
Wang Jiacheng: "Zombies are brainless, so they can be dealt with using electric fences and High Walls."
"But if those Jianghu experts launch a sneak attack late at night, my Bodyguard Team is just a bunch of Rookies, completely incapable of resisting."
"If there isn't an expert staying here permanently, I fear that our Wang Family's Industry will be ruined in my generation's hands!"
Wang Ajiao heard her father's worries and clung tightly to the Little Security Guard's arm: "Brother, you must help us deal with the external enemies!"
The Little Security Guard pinched her small nose and chuckled, "What difficulty is there in dealing with a bunch of Rookies?"
