"Chen, can you bear to disappoint them?" Risfar looked at Chen Zhao.
"Let's talk about it when I'm free in a few days. I'm busy these days," Chen Zhao said.
"Chen, can you guarantee their safety?" Lora was still worried.
"Don't worry. My pets won't hurt people."
"Risfar, you're the CEO of GDB Ocean Shipping?" Winnip felt that Risfar looked familiar, but she couldn't be sure.
Winnip ran a chain of supermarkets. There were branches in four cities in California, including one in Los Angeles.
However, they definitely couldn't compare to Risfar in terms of quantity. They also didn't have any business dealings.
Winnip only remembered Risfar because he had appeared in some business magazines.
"Hello, Ms. Winnip, I know you. You run a chain supermarket brand. I agree with your business philosophy. If there's a chance in the future, maybe we can work together."
Of course, these were just polite words. One was in the ocean shipping business and the other was in the supermarket business. There was almost no interaction.
Although supermarkets also needed transportation, most of the time, they used air or land transportation instead of ocean transportation.
If it was a mega corporation like Walmart, they could use ocean shipping, but there was no need for Winnip's supermarket chain.
"How did you meet Chen?" Winnip asked.
"Something happened to my wife. Chen helped me cure her."
"Oh? Lora doesn't look like she's sick. "
Lola smiled and took off her wig. "I'm suffering from alopecia."
Lora's head was still bald, but she already had a layer of very short hair.
"Chen, I've also been suffering from hair loss recently. Can I still be treated at my age?" Winnip asked.
"But from your complexion, it's possible that it's because of the stress of work, causing your hair loss. This isn't a big problem, and it's easy to treat. I have my own ointment here. If you apply it, it should be able to solve your hair loss problem."
"Winnip, I don't think you should use this unknown ointment," Laurent said untimely.
After holding it in for an entire night, Laurent finally couldn't help but criticize Chen Zhao.
"Laurent, your hair loss is caused by sexual dysfunction. I really can't do anything."
"Who has sexual dysfunction? Don't talk nonsense. "
"Alright, both of you, stop talking. You said that the relationship between the two of you had eased up, but you're quarreling again after drinking a little."
Fortunately, Chen Zhao and Laurent knew when to stop and didn't fight further.
They were all a little cautious, worried that they would spill the beans on how they had hurt each other in the past two days.
During the BBQ, everyone was eating and drinking, and the children were playing around.
Everyone enjoyed themselves, but Kane, Karim, and Howard didn't drink.
They might seem timid in front of Chen Zhao, but they were actually very professional bodyguards.
When the guests left, he even helped send Dell and Risfar home.
Chen Zhao and Fali cleaned up the mess. They only finished after ten o 'clock.
…
The next day, Chen Zhao went to the Mirror Lake construction site.
After checking on the progress of the new home, Felwood Cisco came out to welcome him.
"Mr. Chen."
"Felwood, how's my house going?"
"The main part is done now. It's fast, but the external and internal parts will take longer. There's also the renovation."
"Just tell me how long it'll take. You know that my original house was burned down. I'm staying at a friend's house now, so I hope it can be faster."
"Mr. Chen, I can't be faster just because I want to. For some projects, we have to ensure the quality first. After all, it's built beside the lake. If there's a problem with the quality, it might affect the entire structure, so we can't rush."
"I know. Just tell me how long it'll take."
Chen Zhao was also impatient. No matter how close he was to Rasfa and Zola, it wasn't his house.
Fali was the same. The house Zola had lent him was very nice.
However, Chen Zhao and Fali still couldn't treat the villa as their home.
It felt like they were staying in a hotel.
"At least two months."
"Okay." Chen Zhao glanced at the main part of the building. It couldn't even be considered a house now.
Because of the unique design of his new house, it wasn't mainly made of bricks and soil. Instead, it was made of carbonized steel and glass.
This material was as tough as steel, but it was also more malleable.
It was lighter than steel and could avoid lightning strikes.
Of course, some load-bearing walls and main supporting points were also necessary.
Chen Zhao and Fali both preferred modern architecture, so the building Robio designed for them was also modern and technologically advanced.
There was a wooden bridge that extended more than ten meters beside the lake. A small dock had been built.
This dock was probably the simplest part of the entire project.
However, with the depth of Mirror Lake, it could only accommodate small boats. Medium-sized boats wouldn't even be able to enter, let alone dock.
The water engineering team hired by Risfar had already started widening and deepening the outer river.
Chen Zhao was anxious about the progress of the new house, but building a house wasn't like building blocks. He could only wait patiently.
He also had to make money quickly. After all, the furniture and electronic equipment wouldn't be small.
For example, a high-end home theater would cost eighty to ninety thousand dollars.
A kitchen set would cost ten to twenty thousand. The bathroom was about the same.
Chen Zhao hadn't calculated the exact figure, but he estimated that it would be around three hundred thousand dollars.
There was also the furniture. Chen Zhao had already agreed with Bant to order furniture from his and his friend's carpentry workshop. It would also cost twenty to thirty thousand dollars.
If it was just home electronics, appliances, and furniture, Chen Zhao had plenty of money.
However, Chen Zhao felt that since there was a dock, shouldn't he get a yacht?
In terms of yacht selection, Chen Zhao was more inclined to buy a second-hand yacht.
For the same model, a brand new yacht would cost two to three times more than a second-hand one.
While Chen Zhao's new house was being built, Blackie's was also being built. However, Chen Zhao still didn't know how Blackie was doing.
Chen Zhao had gone to the original space crevice twice. Recently, Cerberus had been rather depressed.
