Chapter 1464: Chapter 707: News about Lin Haihu

"Brother Fei, what on earth did you give to Old Chen such that we received this as a return gift... Honey, come look at this suit, do I look handsome in it?"

"Scram, hurry up, there’s still food in the kitchen, I’m going to grab something to eat before I head to school," Yan Fei murmured impatiently, already heading to the kitchen to rummage for food. "Just divvy up the stuff yourselves, save some for whoever’s not here, or else there won’t be any next time."

"Don’t worry, Brother Fei," Heizi agreed before asking, "Are you also going to the night study session?"

"What’s wrong with that? I haven’t been to school for several days, don’t you know the college entrance exam is coming up?" Yan Fei, who was already in the kitchen, didn’t care whether the food was hot or cold. Amid the cook’s protests, he carried out a half basin of beef with two buns on top and a couple of washed cucumbers, crunching away as he stepped out.

Being a cook here is really not easy - while most cooks worry about preparing inadequate food for their bosses, his chief concern is that one day the boss would ruin his health from these eating habits.

It’s really rare to see a boss like this who is not picky about food at all, eats whatever is available, and is so easy-going it’s beyond reproach. Watching Boss Yan eat could really stir up one’s appetite. Normally in the canteen when the boss is eating, everyone else seems to eat an extra half bowl.

Outside, a group gathered around the newly returned Jeep, marveling at the load of gifts. Yan Fei usually doesn’t bother with brand names, but Heizi and the others are quite particular these days. While sorting out the gifts, they estimated the prices – and also figured out which gifts the boss wouldn’t use so they could divvy them up.

After tallying up, Accountant Shao Pingping exclaimed in amazement: "You know the car itself isn’t cheap, and all these gifts together are even worth more than the car. These big bosses really don’t treat money like money!"

Ma Chao casually picked up a piece of women’s clothing, held it against his wife to measure, and nodded contentedly, "This is perfect for you, honey, try it on quick."

Shao Pingping felt awkwardly: "This is a return gift for the boss, maybe we should keep it for the boss’s wife!"

Heizi, with righteous indignation, called out, "Did you even look at the size of the clothes? Besides you and Ruirui, no one else can wear them. If you don’t want it, I’ll give it to our Ruirui..."

"Dream on, I’m taking it!" Shao Pingping rolled her eyes at Heizi, clutching the garment as she ran into the room. "I’m going to try it on. And don’t forget to save a couple for Accountant Xiang, or you’ll see how she’ll deal with you later."

"Relax, we’ve got plenty!" Heizi responded, pulling out a few more boxes. "There are indeed a lot of clothes, enough to save some for Brother Fa and the others, not bad at all. Old Chen is really generous!"

"Alright, alright, everyone just pick two fewer items," Ma Chao, seeing that most had taken their share, called out unceremoniously.

"Hey, is this a knife?" Heizi exclaimed in surprise. "And a gold watch... I’m saving these for you, Brother Fei!"

"Damn, nice one!" Old Ou and a few others immediately gathered around. No one bothered about the watch, all eyes were on the knife!

"Take it and look, no need to think too much. As for the knife, I’ll decide - it belongs to Old Gao," Heizi handed the exquisitely crafted short blade to Old Ou.

"Alright!" Old Ou grinned as he took the knife, the others immediately clamoring to get their hands on it first. "Old Gao, Old Gao, would you sell this knife for twenty bucks? Quit playing with it, better save up for baby formula later!"

"Scram, scram, scram!" Old Gao was as straightforward as always, and although a smile stayed on his face, his words remained blunt. "I wouldn’t sell it for two hundred, and sure, you guys might have saved up for formula, but do you even know which house your wives are from?"

"Fuck, Old Gao, if you talk like this, we can’t be brothers anymore!"

Old Ou and the others started a row; these guys, by now reasonably well-off, had become increasingly choosy about finding wives and had been sleeping alone under cool blankets up to now. No matter how they casually claimed not to be in a hurry, bringing up this topic was more effective than anything else in getting a rise out of them.

The changes in these fellows from before to now were more than day and night, and even though they still joked around when not working, they weren’t as wild as before. Old Gao, being quite muscular, didn’t fit into most clothes, so as compensation he ended up with a toy instead, everyone understanding without needing to be told by Heizi.

Of course, now no one here really lacked for anything, it was just a bit of fun to liven things up!

...

Yan Fei was attending evening self-study solely because there were no teachers at night, making it easier to study, and to check if any new exam papers or questions had been released recently. Regardless, even the most confident need plenty of preparation for the college entrance exam.

Besides, wasn’t he also planning to use this rumor-ridden time to transfer some more assets from the dinosaur world?

During the day, he returned from the dinosaur world not long after entering, and consulted with No.1 Coolie on what else was needed. For the rest of the time, he stayed close to inspect his ’big gift package’ and took the opportunity to learn some new skills, such as flying a fighter jet.

Now, the planes on the ship only took off occasionally, as although an aircraft carrier carried ample operational materials, the usual rule was only to use them when it was possible to return home for resupply. Now that everyone had come to an unknown world, consumables like fuel were used sparingly - who would dare waste them recklessly?
