Xu He went to the kitchen to prepare lunch, and then came back to chat with Chen Ye.

Chen Ye didn't talk much, he mostly just listened, and even fell asleep leaning on the sofa.

It was already past 1 o'clock in the afternoon when Qin Wei and the others came in from outside, feeling cold.

Xu He walked over, took off his coat for him, and said softly: "Miss Chen has fallen asleep. Maybe she drank with the children of the Mai family until late last night. Lunch has been prepared in the kitchen, look..."

Before Xu He could finish his words, Chen Ye had already woken up.

"Boss Qin, you're back?"

Qin Wei nodded, "Miss Chen, the kitchen has prepared lunch, let's go to the table together."

Chen Ye took a sip of tea. She had just finished breakfast and hadn't digested it yet. She had once sat at the same table with Qin Wei before, and when she thought of his silent appearance while eating, she shook her head.

"I just finished breakfast a while ago, you guys go ahead. I'll wait for you here with some tea."

"That's fine, we can talk while we eat."

Chen Ye was pulled to the table and sat in a random seat.

The recipes are closer to home cooking, and most of the dishes are fish and shrimp that she brought.

Grilled turbot, steamed grouper, pan-fried mackerel, blanched prawns, salt and pepper mantis shrimp, shrimp omelette, and even the soup is stewed cod.

In addition to these, there are also braised chicken with scallion oil, beef with soy sauce, and garlic spare ribs.

The main dish is a wrap made of corn flour, which is rolled into a U shape, filled with beef filling, cheese, onion, green pepper rings, and a few slices of cherry tomatoes.

Snacks include cheesecake, Portuguese tart and peach pastry.

The vegetarian dishes included fried carrots with corn kernels, sprinkled with pine nuts and sesame seeds, and a portion of candied tomatoes. Qin Wei's family even had Chinese cabbage.

Qin Wei's kitchen should have a dedicated chef. Ordinary home-cooked dishes are presented and decorated to give the feeling of a big restaurant.

The fruits that Chen Ye brought yesterday were cherries and strawberries, which were placed on delicate small plates, with one portion in front of each person.

It is hard to imagine that at a time when most of China cannot get enough food, a lunch for a rich family can still be so luxurious.

At first no one spoke, everyone was concentrating on eating.

Chen Ye was not hungry, so after eating a strawberry, he had someone serve him hot tea. He admired Qin Wei's leisurely and gentle manner while eating, which was like an elegant and tranquil landscape painting.

Xu He was also very dignified and proper when eating. Even when she was happy, she only expressed it with small gestures like relaxing her brows.

Perhaps she was influenced by Qin Wei, or perhaps she herself was well-educated and well-mannered. During a casual chat, she mentioned that she was originally the daughter of a wealthy family in Jiangnan.

Qin Cheng never felt arrogant at home, or in front of Qin Wei.

With these three people as a reference, the other four seemed much more casual when eating, even a little anxious. The meal was almost halfway through, and no one asked to toast the wine glasses on the table.

Yes, these people are too rich, but after all, they haven’t eaten fresh seafood for a long time.

Perhaps because Chen Ye looked at him with embarrassment, Zhang Jingzhou finally put down his chopsticks, wiped the grease from his mouth, raised his wine glass, cleared his throat, and nodded to Chen Ye. "I'm sorry, Miss Chen, I'm sorry. Thank you for the supplies you brought today, as well as the delicious food on the table. I, Old Zhang, would like to toast you first."

Qin Wei and Chen Ye were both from the south, and they didn't pay much attention to the drinking culture at dinner parties. They had worked with Qin Wei for many years and knew each other very well. This was a family dinner, so there weren't that many rules. It didn't matter who started it.

Chen Ye raised his teacup and said, "I'm sorry, Boss Zhang. I drank too much last night. I have to rush back to S City soon, so I'll drink tea instead of wine."

Lu Yuyang is a native of Beijing. He spoke in a genuine Beijing accent and said, "Boss Qin and I have just seen Miss Chen's abilities. I never thought that Miss Chen is so capable at such a young age. We old men are really impressed."

"Thank you for the compliment. I have to rely on Boss Qin for my livelihood now."

Qin Wei was very happy to hear this. The people in front of her were her important connections in the capital, but after introducing them to Chen Ye, she was not moved at all. Even if she could raise the supplies to fill the two large warehouses, she would not be able to do so at this time. Even if she could, it would be impossible to transport them from S City in this stormy and snowy weather.

The people present were also smart people. After listening to Chen Ye's words, they understood what she meant. They raised their glasses to toast Qin Wei and Chen Ye.

"Boss Qin, you have to let me take some fish home to my boss later. He didn't get to eat this, and if he hears what I say, he'll have to cut me open and dig me out."

Liu Si Ning is younger and his thinking is more active than Qin Wei's generation.

Qin Wei pursed his lips and smiled softly, then nodded, "Yes."

"If you raise more gold and jade and let Boss Qin pay for the goods, maybe you can eat lobster and abalone, or even tuna sashimi next time."

The few of them stopped drinking and had no appetite for food. They finished their lunch in a short while and asked their driver to go back and raise some money as a deposit.

Then they pulled Qin Wei into the study and argued with him about dividing the supplies in the two warehouses first.

Qin Wei turned around and said with a smile: "Miss Chen Ye, please come to the study to discuss this."

"Boss Qin, why don't you write down the required list first, and then we can discuss how to divide the supplies later? It may take a month or two for me to come next time."

"But Qin has not yet finished counting all the supplies..."

"It doesn't matter, you can just pay a portion of it first." After all, she had to get some money to upgrade the space.

Qin Wei was slightly stunned and deeply shocked. At this time, she actually trusted him so much.

He then discussed with the other four people what else they needed and wrote it down one by one.

In the evening, the drivers of several people brought gold and jade items, and Qin Wei also had them sorted out.

Chen Ye looked at the list and saw that one third of it was seafood and fish. He couldn't help but remind him, "Boss Qin, we still have to focus on the main food supplies."

Qin Wei looked at her serious face and thought of what she had said at the beginning of the winter season that the time would be long. If it wasn't long, why would she have stockpiled so many supplies? So he nodded and made some changes to the list.

Coal Ball Qin Wei had already paid the money before, and this time he sorted out ten boxes of gold bars and ten boxes of jade.

Chen Ye looked at the rows of open boxes, shining with gold and jade-like crystal. He felt as if he had just robbed Qin Wei's house.

Although the materials in this warehouse are only worth a box of gold bars in their prime years, it seems that business in the apocalypse is easy to do, but the space is a pit.

She ran around everywhere, working for the space, but she had no money left.

Who said Qin Wei was a bad guy? He was clearly a living Bodhisattva who saved her from suffering. When she upgraded the space to the limit, she would definitely give him a huge gift package.

What a good man.

After everything was discussed, Qin Wei asked Chen Ye to stay for dinner before leaving.

Chen Ye refused and told Qin Wei to prepare a large fish tank before his next visit. He also gave him an address and asked him to arrange for someone to deliver a truckload of coal to Mai Zihao another day.

He also asked Qin Wei to send someone to take her to a designated location where someone would come to pick her up. It was a vacant room that she passed by on her way to the military compound yesterday.

Before leaving, Chen Ye pointed at his car and said, "Please lend me your car next time I come."

Whether it's a big snowmobile or a snowboard, it's hard work.

As for her cool and awesome flying vehicle, she is not worthy of it yet.

Qin Wei nodded, looked at the snow outside, and said slowly: "Miss Chen, the old year is coming to an end, and the new year is coming. I wish you all the best in the new year, without any regrets."

Chen Ye smiled and said, "Take care, Boss Qin!" Then he waved at him and left his house.
