    Jiang Jie's phone call reminded Jiang Rong of one thing: he had to resign early.

    The day before his birthday, he took three days of annual leave and wanted to rest at home.Unexpectedly, when he opened his eyes, he found that he was reborn. He was so busy running around these days that he almost forgot that he still had a job.

    Although the salary of his job is high, many people envy him when he speaks about it.But in this situation, work will only scatter his meager energy.Thinking of this, he decided to go to the studio tomorrow and quit his job.

    Jiang Rong's studio is located in the tallest office building in the center of City C. The people who come and go here are all professional elites, so the work pressure is naturally high.As a new designer, Jiang Rong has had a lot of limelight in the past two years.The position behind him is coveted by many people, so he is not worried that no one will do his work after he leaves.

    Knowing that Jiang Rong was about to resign, the boss politely stayed away and signed the form with a wave of his hand.According to the labor contract, it takes one month to leave after resigning, but Jiang Rong has accumulated more than 20 days of annual leave in the past few years, which can just cover the rest of the time.

    After coming out of the conference room, Jiang Rong went straight to his workstation to pack his things.There is actually nothing to clean up at the workstation. He has always been meticulous in his work. All the things have been classified in the computer and can be directly transferred to other colleagues to take over.

    His own personal items are pitifully small, most of them are scattered and small things, and the two biggest items are thermos cups and prickly pears.There are cartoon stickers on the thermos cup and the prickly pear flower pot. These two things were chosen by his son. If conditions permit, he wants to take them back.

    Although there were not many things, Jiang Rong found a cardboard box and put the few things in it.Looking at the sparse things in the box, he comforted himself: Life needs a sense of ritual, and of course you have to hug a cardboard box when you leave.

    Just as he was about to leave, Jiang Jie walked to Jiang Rong's station with red eyes, her voice was hoarse and her nose was red, "Jiang Gong, why did you just leave? Did something happen?"

    Jiang Rong raised his head and glanced at Jiang Jie, seeing her pear blossoms with rain, he didn't feel any fluctuations in his heart and even wanted to sneer.No matter what purpose Jiang Jie came to him now, he didn't want to waste any more words with her.So he said slowly: "It's okay, I just want to change the environment. Goodbye."

    As soon as the words fell, Jiang Rong left with the box in his arms.Jiang Jie opened her mouth to say something, but when she saw Jiang Rong leaving quickly, she lowered her eyes to hide the disappointment in her eyes.But when she raised her eyes again, she had locked on the next person who would help her for free.

    After returning to the car, Jiang Rong put the cardboard box on the passenger side of the car. Because the box was too spacious, the thermos bottle fell down and crushed the potted prickly pear plant as big as a fist.The prickly pear tree that his son chose for him looks like a small mountain peak, only a little higher than the thumb, and has a columnar body with soft little hairs, which looks fragile.

    Jiang Rong straightened the thermos cup, and then placed the cactus in a safer place.After tidying up a bit, he started the car and drove towards the Huifeng Logistics Park in City D.

    For the next month, Jiang Rong traveled between City C and City D every day, and his car would show up in the parking space of the logistics park every day, no matter the wind or rain.

    After a month, the balance in the bank card was depleted rapidly.The balance of more than 20 million yuan was quickly reduced by more than half after the main body of the house was completed. Including the design fee and bulletproof glass, the construction cost of this house was close to 15 million yuan.Now the renovation of the main body is coming to an end, and the construction team has already started packing up and preparing to evacuate.

    Fifteen million dollars was thrown lightly on the house, and the subsequent interior decoration will continue to cost money.But Jiang Rong firmly believed that the money was well spent.

    In addition, the money spent on hoarding goods has already seen the effect.

    The eight rows of shelves in the warehouse are full of pallets, and each pallet has a cardboard box tied up with five flowers.These cardboard boxes are 1.1 meters in length, width and height, and can hold one cubic meter of things inside.Don't underestimate a cubic meter, if it is used to hold water, it can hold a ton of weight.

    Jiang Rong gave priority to vacuum-packed supplies when purchasing supplies. The rice he bought was 10 catties per bag. After vacuum packaging, the loose rice became as solid as bricks, and a cardboard box could hold more than 1,000 catties of grain.

    These cartons contain various canned food with a long shelf life, dozens of dried vegetables after dehydration, rice noodles, grain oil, rice, wheat and various beans, and salted or air-dried chicken, duck and fish...

    Such cardboard boxes filled every shelf, giving Jiang Rong a great sense of security.This was his first stockpile, and he picked out things that would fill his stomach and save his life if stored for a long time.As long as this batch of supplies can be transported back to the basement, he and his son will have no worries about food and drink for the rest of their lives.

    Of course, a person's brain power is limited, and it is also his first time hoarding supplies, so there will inevitably be unexpected places.But it doesn't matter, it's only mid-April, and he still has more than a month to slowly add to his stocking list.

    In order to welcome this batch of supplies to the basement, Jiang Rong still has a lot to do.For example, right now, he is standing at the high-speed exit on the south side of City D, waiting for the driver and installer to deliver the shelves.

    Because there are too many things in stock, ordinary shelves on the market can't bear it.Last month, Jiang Rong ordered a batch of alloy shelves from a professional shelf company. Because of the high requirements, the production cycle was very long, and the things were not ready until two days ago.

    There is a farmland at the exit of the expressway, and the farmland is full of rape blossoms in April.Jiang Rong parked the car on the side of the road. He leaned against the car and faced the farmland, admiring the unique beauty of spring.After looking at it for a while, he took out his mobile phone and took a few photos in the direction of the farmland.

    He wanted to take the photos back to show Jiang Xiaoheng. Xiaoheng has never left City C since he was born.

    Thinking of this, Jiang Rong suddenly remembered that today is Saturday, and his son should be resting now.So he dialed the number of Chu Qiang's mother. After the call was connected, an old lady with gray hair and a kind face appeared on the screen.

    Jiang Rong stood up straight and respectfully said, "Aunt Zhou." Chu Qiang's mother is surnamed Zhou, she is gentle and kind, Jiang Xiaoheng really likes her.

    Aunt Zhou smiled: "Rongrong, do you miss Xiaoheng? Xiaoheng is good at our house, don't worry. Come, Xiaoheng, your father is looking for you."

    Jiang Xiaoheng's soft response came from outside the screen: "Come on, come on, grandpa, shall we play again later? Xiaoheng is going to talk to dad."

    Aunt Zhou turned the phone screen, and Jiang Rong saw Jiang Xiaoheng running quickly.Jiang Xiaoheng was wearing a little yellow duck coat, and when he ran towards the screen, he was bouncing and bouncing, which made people's hearts tremble.

    Behind Xiao Heng was an old man with silver hair holding a small plane in his hand. The old man half-bent and stretched out a hand in Xiao Heng's direction, as if he could pick up Xiao Heng and put him in his arms at any time.The old couple had their hearts tied to Jiang Xiaoheng. Seeing Xiaoheng running too fast, they were afraid that the child would fall.

    Jiang Rong greeted them embarrassedly: "Uncle and aunt, Xiaoheng has caused you trouble."

    The old couple laughed: "What is this kid talking about? Xiaoheng is very good! He is in our house, you just need to do things at ease."

    Before Jiang Rong could greet him, Jiang Xiaoheng got Aunt Chu's cell phone, and a snow-white steamed bun face instantly appeared on the screen.Jiang Xiaoheng's eyes sparkled: "Dad~ are you looking for me? Do you miss me?"

    Jiang Rong's eyes were gentle: "Yes, Dad misses you."

    Jiang Xiaoheng grinned and showed his white teeth, "I miss Dad too! Dad, Dad, has our house been repaired?"

    Ever since he learned that his father was repairing a house in his hometown, Jiang Xiaoheng was full of anticipation. Every day when Jiang Rong came home, he would check his father's phone for pictures of the new house.The dusty house hasn't been decorated yet, but it can't hold back his unrestrained imagination. He has already won a toy house for himself at home.

    Hearing his son's question, Jiang Rong said slowly, "The house has not been fully repaired, but it will be soon. Son, Dad wants you to see this."

    Speaking of which, Jiang Rong switched the camera and pointed at the rapeseed flowers under the sun.The golden color in his eyes formed a huge visual impact, and Jiang Rong saw the light in his son's eyes with satisfaction: "It's so beautiful——Dad, is this the rapeseed flower that the teacher said?"

    Jiang Xiaoheng had good eyesight, and he exclaimed, "Papa, look, there are little bees." He called Uncle Chu and Aunt Chu in front of the camera to admire the little bees, and at the same time directed Jiang Rong to move the phone.

    Tongyan Tongyu made the other side of the screen burst into laughter, and Jiang Rong's heart softened.Seeing that the appointment time with the drivers was approaching, he could only make a long story short, "Dad is busy building a house, Xiaoheng must listen to his grandparents."

    Jiang Xiaoheng patted his chest and assured seriously: "You are obedient! Xiaoheng exercises with grandpa and grandma every day, and I just helped grandpa hammer his back. Grandpa said that his waist is not sore now and his legs don't hurt~"

    Aunt Chu smiled and said, "Hey, we just came back from the park. Xiaoheng dragged our old couple for a long walk. Don't tell me, Rongrong, since Xiaoheng came to our house, our old couple's spirits are much better!"

    Jiang Rong smiled gratifiedly: "I have caused you trouble."

    Only those who are in good health can survive the big crisis. Although Chu Qiang's parents are old, they are still in good health.Jiang Rong hoped that they would survive the big crisis smoothly, so before sending Jiang Xiaoheng to Chu's house, he made an agreement with his son that he would take the old couple to exercise more to increase their resistance.

    It seemed that Jiang Xiaoheng had listened to everything he said.

    Not long after I hung up the phone, the phone rang again.When I looked closely, it was the truck driver's phone.Jiang Rong pressed the answer button, and a rough male voice came from the receiver: "Mr. Jiang, we have reached the exit, where are you?"

    The gentleness on Jiang Rong's face was replaced by seriousness. He walked from the side of the car to the side of the road, and immediately raised his hand: "Here, next to the white SUV."
