Only children in Siheyuan make choices. I want them all.

As he boarded the plane back home, Zhang Jianjun was so excited that he could hardly contain himself. This trip to Europe was a huge profit. Not to mention the 10% annual profit from the gold mine, the several hundred kilograms of gold and more than one million tons of grain alone were an enormous income.

After arriving at the first-class cabin, Zhang Jianjun walked briskly, like a happy bird, and went straight to the bar on the plane.

He was so familiar with this place that it felt like it was his private territory. This time, the big horses had a new group of faces, completely different from the group that came more than a month ago.

"Well! I've been busy in Europe for more than a month, and now I can finally relax. Let's enjoy it!" Zhang Jianjun sat in the booth excitedly, and instantly a blonde beauty appeared on each side, snuggling up to him.

Zhang Jianjun kissed them unceremoniously, his actions were passionate and indulgent, fully releasing his long-suppressed desires and passion.

At noon the next day, a tall and graceful stewardess gently pushed open the door, walked to the bed with light steps, and gently patted Zhang Jianjun who was sleeping soundly.

"Sir, wake up, we have arrived at Sijiucheng, it's time for you to get off the plane!" The stewardess' voice was gentle and sweet, as if honey could drip out.

After being woken up, Zhang Jianjun rubbed his eyes, his movements seemed a bit lazy, and slowly sat up from the bed. He quickly put on his clothes, his movements were neat and tidy, and after a simple wash, he was ready to leave.

When he just walked out of the cabin door and had not yet had time to go down the stairs, he suddenly saw Mr. Chen, Uncle Zhou and others standing under the plane waiting for him.

Zhang Jianjun was startled, and a look of surprise instantly appeared on his face. He immediately realized that he could no longer be as casual as before. He quickly quickened his pace and trotted towards them, his steps hurried and anxious.

"Why are you here? How dare I ask you uncles to pick you up at the airport? Uncle Zhou and Mr. Chen, how come you seem to have a lot more white hair after not seeing you for a month? Is the disaster more serious?" Zhang Jianjun asked hurriedly with concern, his tone full of worry and anxiety.

Seeing this, Uncle Zhou sighed: "Hey! Jianjun, do you have a cigarette? Give us one!" Uncle Zhou's voice was filled with deep fatigue.

Zhang Jianjun touched his pocket and handed over his pack of cigarettes: "Uncle Zhou! I remember you guys didn't seem to smoke." Zhang Jianjun's face was full of confusion.

Uncle Zhou took the cigarette and smiled: "Let's make an exception today! I just want to clear my mind." There was a hint of bitterness in Uncle Zhou's smile.

Zhang Jianjun personally took out the matches and carefully lit them for the uncles and aunts: "Uncle Zhou, you must take care of yourself. The disaster is beyond human control." Zhang Jianjun's eyes were full of concern.

Uncle Zhou waved his hand: "Let's not talk about this. Jianjun, how are you doing in Europe? Have you bought the food?" Uncle Zhou stared at Zhang Jianjun eagerly.

Zhang Jianjun immediately said seriously: "Report! We bought it. A total of 100,000 tons of grain for 20 million yuan, and there is also 100,000 tons sent by Lawrence, a total of 200,000 tons of grain. It will arrive in a few days!" Zhang Jianjun's voice was loud and firm.

When everyone heard that there were 200,000 tons of grain, they were extremely excited. Their expressions of excitement were beyond words. Uncle Zhou patted Zhang Jianjun on the shoulder and said, "I knew that if I sent you, you would be able to complete the task. You have worked hard over the past month. The welcoming banquet is ready. Tell us about your time in Europe!" Uncle Zhou's tone was full of relief.

"Okay!" Zhang Jianjun did not refuse. He followed the others into the car and went to Diaoyutai without hesitation. He felt quite complicated along the way.

During the meal, Zhang Jianjun did not hide anything and recounted his experiences in Europe in detail, except for the one million tons of grain.

"Jianjun, you are so bold that you actually went to the Rothschild family alone. Fortunately, nothing happened to you this time. Don't try to be brave in the future." Old Chen glared at him unhappily. There was both blame and heartache in his eyes.

"Yes! If anything happens to you, our losses will be huge. This is not comparable to 200,000 tons of grain." Uncle Zhou also echoed, his tone full of worry.

"I understand! Thank you both uncles for your concern. Fortunately, this effort is worth it. Lawrence has promised me that he will sell us food in time if we are short of it in the future, but the price may be a little higher." Zhang Jianjun said solemnly, his expression serious and firm.

"Well! Your apprentice has helped us a lot this time. We will always remember the kindness of these 100,000 tons of grain. After this batch of grain arrives, you must notify us as soon as possible. The people in the Central Plains can't hold on any longer." Uncle Zhou's eyes were full of worry, and that look seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts.

"Is the disaster serious? Are 200,000 tons of food enough?" Zhang Jianjun asked hurriedly, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

"Alas! Now in the Central Plains, people have begun to eat tree bark. Large areas of the country have been affected by disasters, and there is no extra food for disaster relief! Now two hundred thousand tons of food are barely enough, but I'm afraid..." Uncle Zhou didn't say anything else, but just sighed deeply.

Zhang Jianjun actually knew that with these 200,000 tons of grain, they could barely get by this year, but what about next year and the year after? This year they were already stretched to the limit, and next year they wouldn't even have any surplus grain, so they would probably need at least 500,000 tons of grain.

Everyone was in a bad mood, and after a few casual greetings, Zhang Jianjun stood up to say goodbye. Mr. Chen specially asked his driver to take him back.

After Zhang Jianjun left, Old Chen couldn't help but speak: "Old Zhou! What were you afraid of when you seemed to be hesitant to speak just now?" Old Chen's face was full of confusion.

Uncle Zhou sighed when he heard this: "I'm afraid this disaster won't last just one year. Those affected by this year's disaster can eat last year's reserve grain, but what if there's another disaster next year? We're going to need three or four times more grain." Uncle Zhou's tone was so heavy that it made people breathless.

Old Chen was surprised: "What? Two hundred thousand tons multiplied several times, wouldn't that mean seventy or eighty thousand tons of grain? Can we get so much grain when the army is established? Our China has just been established not long ago, and that foreigner has no intention of helping us at all. Even if we spend money to buy it, they won't sell us grain." Old Chen's face was full of worry.

Uncle Zhou waved his hand: "Forget it! Let's not talk about this for now. Send more trucks to the Jinmen wharf as soon as possible. Once the food arrives, we will immediately transport it to the disaster area." Uncle Zhou's expression was serious and decisive.

Mr. Chen nodded and immediately began to arrange the relevant matters.

On the other side, Zhang Jianjun sat in the car, looking out the window, feeling very heavy. He knew the severity of the disaster and the greater responsibility he shouldered, and his brows were tightly furrowed, as if they could pinch a fly to death.

When they got home, Qin Jingru and Yin Xinyue rushed up to them excitedly: "Jianjun, you are finally back. It's been more than a month. I missed you so much!" Their voices were filled with joy and longing.

Zhang Jianjun patted the two girls on the back: "I miss you too! Has anything happened at home in this month?" Zhang Jianjun's voice was gentle and kind.

Upon hearing this, Yin Xinyue suddenly realized and said, "That's right! Lou Bancheng called you several times. I asked him what was the matter, but he hesitated and refused to say." Yin Xinyue's face was full of confusion.
