Chapter 704: Chapter 498 Treat Friends as Warm as the Spring Breeze
"It’s giving the secret code, just hand over the drugs, what’s next? Crazy person."
Liu Zheng rolled his eyes.
"Uh, seems like it."
"Alright, here’s the money. I’m leaving."
He tossed twenty thousand into the room, the extra ten thousand considered a deposit.
"Niu Daji, go pick up the medicine from ’Medical Bee’ pharmacy later. The code is ’Heaven King Covers Earth Tiger’."
After leaving the alley, he called Niu Daji.
"Okay, boss. What’s the next line?"
Niu Daji asked.
"...You two are truly evenly matched opponents. You give the code, it hands over the medication, there’s no next line."
Liu Zheng remarked speechlessly.
"But..."
"No buts!"
He hung up the phone irritably.
"Not bad, you’re starting to look like a leader."
The driver nodded with satisfaction.
As a leader, you need to have authority. Being overly friendly with your subordinates every day can give them inappropriate ideas.
"However, the art of leadership lies in hitting the mark, catching subordinates’ mistakes regardless of their size, without randomly losing your temper."
The driver pointed out.
"When did I lose my temper randomly?"
Liu Zheng felt a bit puzzled.
"When you send the Minotaur to do things, you have to explain the tasks clearly. You only provided the first half of the code, so how would he know if the other party’s small phrase is correct during the handover?"
The driver said.
"...Colonel, I should get you a ’Dead Brain Core,’ no, a ’Dead Brain Flower’."
He held his forehead.
Liu Zheng now deeply understands why City Hall wants to hire so many human employees; these non-humans can be quite single-minded sometimes.
"That thing is useless for me."
The driver glanced at him, suddenly floored the accelerator, then braked hard to a sudden stop.
"Bang!"
Liu Zheng crashed head-first into the front windshield.
"Damn!"
It looks like glass, but it’s actually harder than steel.
"Even though I can’t figure it out, I know you’re mocking me."
The driver said slowly.
"At times when you shouldn’t be smart, you suddenly are."
He muttered under his breath.
"What did you say?"
"Nothing. Colonel, let’s hurry up, or we’ll be late for the delivery."
Liu Zheng urged.
"When have you ever rushed while delivering orders?"
The driver remarked.
Every time he drove Liu Zheng, the guy would wander here and there, making the delivery itself the least important task.
Arriving at Jiahe New Residence, Liu Zheng got out and walked to the security booth.
"Hey there, brother. I’m back again."
He greeted.
"Hello, Mr. Liu."
The security guard with triangular eyes returned the greeting.
"I’m Sheng Laoda."
He introduced himself proactively.
"I can tell."
Liu Zheng nodded.
Though they look exactly alike, their aura and speech are somewhat different.
"Hasn’t the name been changed yet?"
He asked.
"No. If we really have to change the name, we don’t even know what to change it to."
Sheng Laoda shook his head.
"Changing the name is a big deal; it should be thought through properly. But don’t take too long, as delays may cause complications."
Liu Zheng advised.
While he’s around, he can ensure the change is implemented; once he leaves Metropolis, it’s uncertain.
"How about Mr. Liu helps us think of a name?"
Sheng Laoda suggested.
Since Liu Zheng has already helped them figure out how to change their names, picking names seems quite reasonable.
"Is that appropriate?"
"It’s perfectly fine. My brother and I aren’t well-educated, and my parents are illiterate; whatever we think of won’t be much better than now."
Sheng Laoda said.
"Alright then, let me think."
Liu Zheng didn’t decline further and lowered his head in thought.
"Got it, how about you being called Sheng Xing, and your brother Sheng Meng?"
He suggested.
"Sounds good. Do they have special meanings?"
Sheng Laoda asked.
"Sheng Xing means someone who is obedient, sensible, and will definitely become successful in the future."
"Sheng Meng means someone who is energetic and full of spirit."
Liu Zheng explained.
"Oh, these are good. These are good, then we brothers will use them. Tomorrow we’ll take leave to change our names."
Sheng Laoda said happily.
"By the way, where’s your brother?"
Liu Zheng asked.
"He’s on night shift today, sleeping now. Does Mr. Liu want to see him? I’ll call him over."
Sheng Laoda took out his phone.
"No need, let him sleep. I’ve come this time to deliver takeout to Manager Huang of the property. What’s he like? Easy to deal with?"
Liu Zheng started gathering information.
"Manager Huang, not a good person, likes petty advantages and flirting with female employees, but overall he’s okay. Much better than the previous manager."
Sheng Laoda thought and said.
"And what’s your relationship with him brothers?"
"Just a normal superior-subordinate relationship. Usually, we offer him some cigarettes, alcohol, and tea, and he won’t target us. That’s the way it is."
Sheng Laoda said.
"That works."
Since the relationship is average, he needn’t worry too much about negotiating.
"How’s his strength?"
"He wouldn’t have become manager if he were weak, but he’s not exceedingly strong either. If we brothers teamed up, we could likely defeat him."
Sheng Laoda spoke with a hint of murderous aura.
Subordinates would naturally have grudges or animosity with their superiors.
"Got it."
Liu Zheng nodded.
Even if the honor owner’s medal is useless to Manager Huang, he can forcibly deliver it.
"I’m off for delivery. See you."
He waved his tentacle and headed towards the inner part of the community.
"Mr. Liu, take care."
Under Sheng Laoda’s watchful eyes, he entered the community and soon arrived at the property center.
"Who are you looking for?"
The receptionist girl who was playing on her phone raised her head.
Calling her a ’girl’ is a bit misleading, as she’s not so young.
