Chapter 770: Some Suspicious People Came to the Bar In Recent Days
Ouyang Qing’s incident was soon settled. When everyone was keeping watch on the Ouyang Family’s next move, among the high-society circle, there was news that they were planning to connect with a few other families through marriage.
When Zi Yi learned about it, she was a little surprised.
“The Ouyang Family really can’t wait to unite with these families and deal with us?”
“It doesn’t matter.” Lu Jingye was not worried about this at all. “Since they want to get married, they can go ahead and do so.”
Even if the families were connected by marriage, it would not have had an impact on Lu Jingye’s plans.
It was already the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month and there were still two days before the New Year’s
Second Master Lu also took leave and stayed at home.
Mrs. Lu started to instruct the helpers at home to clean up the house and prepare fresh New Year’s goods that had not yet been prepared.
During this period of time, many people began to send out gifts.
In less than half a day, the Lu Family’s villa received countless fruits and local products.
Looking at the mountain of gifts, Mrs. Lu smiled helplessly. “There are many people sending gifts during this period of time. The country stipulates that government officials are not allowed to accept gifts and all these people are sending gifts under the guise of Jingye being the recipient.
Lu Jingye had managed the distribution of private materials in the majority of the military camps in the country. The ones sending the gifts were basically those local governors and what they sent were all sorts of local products.
Zi Yi looked at the pile that was increasing in height and asked Mrs. Lu, “Mom, what are we going to do with so many gifts?”
Mrs. Lu had past experience with this. “There are plenty of dry goods and we can keep them to slowly eat. Also, we can give them away.”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Lu smiled. “But I feel that there’s no need to worry this year. You have many relatives and friends. We’ll share it with everyone then. You can make a list and we’ll send them all out.”
Zi Yi smiled and said, “This is a good idea.”
The two of them started discussing how to send these gifts out, while Second Master Lu leisurely sat on the sofa and watched the news as he drank tea.
Mrs. Lu did not order him around to do anything either and she said, “Your Father only has these few days of rest every year. Let him enjoy himself, otherwise he would start feeling upset later on.”
Second Master Lu vaguely heard Mrs. Lu talking about him and he looked over.
“Lingluo, do you need me to do anything?”
“Nothing. You can continue doing your own thing.”
Mrs. Lu and Zi Yi made eye contact and smiled.
After lunch, Zi Yi received Ian’s call.
Ian asked her over the phone, “Zi, are you available tonight? Xiangling and I have invited a few other of her family members and we will be hanging out in your bar.”
Even if Zi Yi was free, she would not go either. “I’m not free.”
Ian laughed over the phone. “I knew you’d be busy. Therefore, the reason I’m calling you is to ask for your help. Even with my VIP card, I can’t even buy any tickets for your bar these past few days.”
The [Futuristic] Bar had also introduced a membership system recently and half of the tickets were sold on the official website, while the other half were meant for VIP customers. They would be able to purchase them on the day itself.
Speaking of which, there weren’t many VIP customers and the tickets were supposedly easy to buy.
Zi Yi asked, “Why weren’t you able to buy a ticket?”
Ian was a little surprised. “I can’t believe you don’t know? Recently a few of the large bars along the street, all closed for renovations at the same time. As a result, there’s a huge number of people gathered at your bar.”
To get the [Futuristic] Bar VIP card, all one needed was to have money and make sure that the amount in it was one million dollars every single time. For many rich second-generation kids, this was simply a trivial matter.
Zi Yi really didn’t care about her bar in recent days. She said, “Alright, you can head over directly.”
After hanging up the phone, Zi Yi contacted Little Loli.
They communicated by virtual projection and the moment Little Loli’s image appeared, she greeted Mrs. Lu sweetly. “Auntie Lu, good afternoon. Long time no see~ I discovered that Auntie Lu is getting younger and more beautiful as the days go by.”
Mrs. Lu was elated. “Your little robot sure has a sweet mouth.”
“Hehehe... I’m telling the truth.”
Mrs. Lu was happy and so, she said, “When you’re free, you’re welcome to come over and play.”
Little Loli hastily nodded her head. “Okay, okay! I’ll come and pay you a visit during the New Year.”
“Oh my, aren’t you so adorable?”
Mrs. Lu was overjoyed and they chatted for a short while before Mrs. Lu continued to write down who the gifts should be distributed to.
Only then did Little Loli ask Zi Yi, “Sister, were you looking for me?”
Zi Yi told her about Ian and her family members heading to the bar and asked her to open up special permission for them. Following that, she asked, “Which bars along the street are currently being renovated?”
Little Loli told her about it and one of them was the bar next to theirs.
Zi Yi thought about it and asked, “Before these bars started their renovations were there any strange things happening?”
“Yes.” Little Loli nodded her head and said, “Before they started renovations, there were several people coming into our bar and taking a look around. I checked their identities at that time and some of them were mechanical engineers and there were also several network engineers.”
Zi Yi said with certainty, “They are trying to imitate our bar.”
Little Loli exploded. “What? The audacity! I’ll sue them for infringement!”
Zi Yi’s lips curved up and she did not take it to heart. “It doesn’t matter. If they can renovate their bars to be 100% the same as mine, I’ll treat it as them winning.”
However, even if Zi Yi allowed them to research her bar in whatever they wanted, the advanced technology in the [Futuristic] bar was not something that they could replicate. Not to mention that they had sneaked in and only taken a casual look.
She could not even be bothered to take care of such things and said, “Let them renovate all they like. If there are too many people in the bar, control the intake. Reserve ten places for me every day.”
It would be convenient for her this way if there were acquaintances who wanted to go to the bar.
“Okay~” Little Loli then said, “Sister, other than them, there are also a few foreigners who have been coming to our bar these past few days. They would come every single day and call for the robots in the VIP room.”
“Did they do anything?”
Little Loli thought about it and said, “They got the robots to perform various skills and nothing else.”
Zi Yi nodded and said, “If they come again tonight, check their identities and pay attention to them.”
“Okay~”
After ending the call, Zi Yi continued sorting the gifts together with Mrs. Lu.
By the time they finished with the list of gifts, the day passed by quickly.
The three of them had dinner together at home.
After dinner, Zi Yi checked up on the situation of her energy companies in Country X in Lu Jingye’s study room. At the same time, she listened to Zhou Shiyu’s report.
A few of the new sources of energy the [Future] Energy Company developed this year were all selling like hotcakes in the market and they could be considered a dark horse of the market.
There were many people trying to dig up information about the boss behind the company, but none of them managed to find anything.
Zi Yi said, “I’ll give you a few new energy sources, and strive for them to be developed this month. The rest can be postponed.”
Zhou Shiyu agreed. “Okay.”
After they finished the report, Zi Yi thought of Zhou Shijin and asked, “Has Zhou Shijin managed to find anyone yet?”
