Zombie Apocalypse: Creation Chapter 492 Restaurants and Renqin's Request

"Perfect... Can you ask your staff to start making a plan for it? Call when it is done."

"Yes, sir."

As Xiaoyun left the logistics office and put on a face mask, the streets were filled with people walking around.

Many of them were heading towards the comrcial district to go shopping or to get so food for lunch.

With nothing much to do for now, he decided to follow the crowds towards the comrcial district.

A few minutes later, he finally arrived at the restaurant sections, where a variety of food was being sold.

So were even multi-chained restaurants just a few blocks down the road with the sa logo.

After walking through several of them, he ended up in what looked to be the most expensive restaurant with various decorations on the wall.

The atmosphere alone almost felt like so sort of French restaurant with the white and gold wall fras and even the tables.

When the waiter handed him a nu, his eyes were shocked as soon as he opened it.

The food price was 100 dollars for a piece of steak, ten tis the portion of a beef can.

But after a short consideration, he quickly ordered every single one of the food on the nu.

"Sir, are you sure you want to order all of them?" The waiter asked, his face seeming more shocked than Xiaoyun's.

"Take this card... Just hand it back after you finish scanning it."

As Xiaoyun handed his ID, the waiter imdiately handed it back to Xiaoyun without even asking him to pay.

"M-Mister gov——"

"I don't want other people to know I'm here. Just scan it and treat as any other custor."

The waiter finally took his ID card, scanning it before plugging in the number and handing it back.

"I'll get it as fast as I can, sir."

Xiaoyun nodded as he watched the waiter walk past the counter before he looked down at the ID in his hand.

"How convenient... All in one card. But digital phone paynt would probably be better."

After putting his card away, he took out his phone to check.

Even though the signal was a full bar, he could still rember the mont he left Luoping. It drastically decreased.

The telecommunication lines were still not finished being laid down, as the reports in the past had ntioned.

"Right, the rail lines as well..." Xiaoyun murmured as he started to feel next week was going to be a busy week.

From helping Yueyue use her invisible cloaks to checking up with Renqin regarding Zhaoqing's record.

There are a lot of things already scheduled just for him that he needed to deal with.

"Ratatouille, sir." The waiter served as he put the bowl of food onto his table.

"What's inside this?" Xiaoyun curiously asked, feeling a sense of familiarity with the dish.

"A vegetable stew featuring zucchini, eggplant, tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers, seasoned with herbs." The waiter answered.

After taking a small bite of it, he imdiately realized why it was so familiar, as his Songming mories were triggered.

"Pretty good... How did you guys cook this so fast?"

"We already cook a lot of als before people order it. Excuse , I need to go serve others."

As the waiter headed to help other tables, Xiaoyun slowly enjoyed the ratatouille on his table.

Just as he was about to finish a third of it, another dish was already served.

But he didn't worry a single bit as he continued eating at his own pace, eating only a small portion of the different dishes on the table.

An hour later...

When the plates were all emptied, the waiters were a little shocked to see Xiaoyun having finished all the food he had ordered.

Even the custors were a little shocked, although it could have been because he had taken off his mask.

"Mr.Govonor, what do you think of the food?" A man in a suit asked curiously. Stay updated via My Virtual Library Empire

"It's pretty good. It reminded of when I went to France for so work... Ahem, can I ask what the reasoning is for such high prices?"

"Well. We use the freshest ingredients possible, including the ats. All of them are lived butchered over canned one."

"I see..."

The man in the suit started to look a little nervous as Xiaoyun stared at the empty plates in silence.

"When you say lived butchered, you an like livestock?"

The man nodded before heading back to the counter to get a paper to show Xiaoyun sothing.

"We have ordered it through the official governnt supply store here, sir."

Seeing the Departnt of Finance approve the restaurant's beef sales, Xiaoyun didn't question it any further.

"Thanks for the food. I got to go now."

As Xiaoyun headed toward the exit, the man in a suit wanted to make a small request. But he remained silent in the end.

---

"What to do now?" Xiaoyun wondered as he walked down the comrcial district.

There wasn't much for him to do outside, and he didn't have any work he could do right now.

He was starting to realize that he had outsourced most of the work he used to do himself to others.

It wasn't necessarily a bad thing, as it allowed others to learn. And, more importantly, less work for him is always a good thing...

Except for right now, where he has nothing to do but doesn't want to head back ho yet.

Just as he was about to call it a day, he surprisingly encountered Renqin right around the corner.

"Boss, can I talk to you about sothing?"

"Sure... Let's talk sowhere more private."

As the two of them headed out of the comrcial district, they soon ended up in the Renqin's office.

"What do you want to talk about?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as he took a seat across from Renqin.

"I... I want to resign from my job." Renqin explained.

"Not again. What made you want to quit again?"

"I'm about to be a father."

The answer caught Xiaoyun a little off guard, but he quickly recovered as he congratulated him.

"That's nice to hear... But you don't have to quit your job. You can be a father and be the head."

"I know. But boss, let's be real for a second. Do you think my job allows to show as a father publically?"

"I an, I'm a father as well. You don't see quitting because it's dangerous. You don't see Yezi quitting, either."

"Yes, but I want to spend more ti with my family..."

Renqin paused for a second, then continued.

"I had been thinking about this for a long ti, but I really don't want my wife and son to need to hide themselves constantly."

"Let think for a second..."

As Xiaoyun considered Renqin's resignation, his rational mind told him to refuse it at all costs.

He couldn't afford to lose Renqin, especially when he was about to assign him an important task.

"Can you delay it for a month? I need you to help right now."

"What is it, boss?"

"You already know what I did in Zhaoqing, don't you?"

Renqin nodded, thinking back to all the reports he had received about all the actions that had taken place.

"I have a list of potential spies that I need you to take care of and investigate."

"Wouldn't that be under Yueyue's job? This sounds like an internal investigation." Renqin imdiately questioned.

"Yes, but so of the people on this list are in the military. You understand the urgency here?"

After a long silence between the two of them, Renqin finally gave Xiaoyun an answer.

"Boss, after this. You promise to allow to retire from this job?" Renqin asked, accepting the delay in his tone.

"As long as you can find a replacent as good as you. Or else you will have to keep working on this job."

"Then I'd rather retire right now." Renqin threaten.

"Renqin. Do you hate this job that much? All of your coworker's hard work could vanish if you quit right now."

"Please don't use them as a way to dictate what I do."

"Fine. You can retire after you finish this investigation. But you have to offer soone who can keep up with the spy network."

Renqin nodded as he accepted the paper from Xiaoyun's jacket, putting it inside his desk without reading it right away.

Just as Xiaoyun was about to leave the room in a grumpy mood, he was suddenly caught off guard by a question.

"Boss, have you thought of rging the intelligence departnt?"

"What?"

Turning around, Xiaoyun was surprised to see a docunt labeled 'integration plan' in front of the table.

"Yueyue is the perfect replacent for . There's no point in keeping two conflicting departnts when there can be just one.

Besides, boss, you will always trust her more than . Her interest is tied to you compared to the two of us."

"Is this the real reason why you wanted to quit?" Xiaoyun questioned.

Renqin let out an awkward laugh, not letting Xiaoyun take back his offer from earlier.
