Chapter 61 Uneasy
"Starting tonight, trucks can't get in during the day, so they can only be transported at night."

Zhang Hao replied.

"It's late at night, Big Pudding and the two of them have to go to school tomorrow? Doesn't this delay sleep?"

Li Dajuan frowned suddenly.

Zhang Hao nodded: "Mom, I was just about to tell you about this. I have already booked a hotel outside, so why don't you come back these few days."

"What hotel are you staying in? Spending money, I'll look for earplugs later, and I'll just plug them both when they go to sleep. You should return the room immediately!"

"Mom, when the truck is unloading, there is not only noise, but also dust pollution..."

Li Dajuan immediately interrupted: "Stop talking, where is the hotel? Don't be too far away."

For the sake of the health of the grandchildren, it is worth spending more money.

"Not far, just across from our house, less than 10 minutes' walk."

"Okay, we'll go there after dinner."

……

The next day, Zhang Hao didn't get up until 11:30.

Last night, the coal trucks were tossing until four o'clock in the morning, and he didn't sleep well at all. Fortunately, this place is relatively remote, otherwise a disturber would never be able to escape.

After washing up, I came to the restaurant.

Li Dajuan is making lunch.

Zhang Hao casually asked, "Mom, is there anything to eat?"

"It's time for lunch, there is fruit in the living room, you should eat some fruit first!"

Li Dajuan waved the spatula.

"Got it!"

Zhang Hao turned around and came to the living room, then sat down on the sofa, picked up an apple from the fruit plate, and made a phone call while eating.

"Hey, second sister."

"It's Xiaohao, what's the matter?"

Zhang Jiayi yawned big.

In the recent period, in order to race against time, she basically only slept for three or four hours a day, and even her iron body couldn't bear it.

"I should ask you this. Today is already the 25th. Have you boarded the plane yet?"

"Soon." Zhang Jiayi said perfunctorily.

"What do you mean soon? Is it up or not?"

Zhang Hao hurriedly asked.

Zhang Jiayi could only answer truthfully: "Your brother-in-law has already bought a ticket on the 28th, and we will leave on time in three days."

"What? Another three days?"

Zhang Hao's heart skipped a beat for an instant.

The 29th is the time for the volcanic eruption, leaving only one day is too rushed, and it is easy to have accidents.

"I can't help it. Didn't there be another earthquake before? Now the entire west coast is in panic, and the ticket to Feihui City has been fired to 200 million. Your brother-in-law paid twice the price to buy it."

"No, three days is too long, I'll help you find out if there is a private charter flight."

"Don't be so troublesome. I still have some finishing work on my side, which happens to take two or three days."

Zhang Jiayi refused on the spot.

Zhang Hao suddenly became suspicious: "Second sister, you didn't do it on purpose, did you?"

"No, Huicheng is no different than other cities. It is really hard to get a ticket now."

"I said, Second Sister, don't just stare at Huicheng. It's the same when flying to other cities. As long as you can leave the North American continent, you can go anywhere."

"It's too troublesome to transfer planes, and we've already bought our air tickets, so I promise we will do what we say this time."

Zhang Hao immediately threw away the apple in his hand: "Second sister, I can tell you clearly that there will be no more than a week at most, and there will definitely be changes in the Sulfur Rock Volcano. You must leave immediately, and this matter is not negotiable."

"What are you talking about? My side...the signal is not good, so I'll hang up for now."

Zhang Jiayi simply used the drag word.

Call again and the phone is turned off.

Zhang Hao hammered the table hard, then impatiently called his second brother-in-law:
"Steven, where are you now?"

"I'm in San Francisco. Two fully loaded freighters set sail in the afternoon. If everything goes well, they will arrive in Huicheng in about forty days."

Zhang Hao quickly asked: "How much is left?"

He understood now that as long as the goods were not delivered in a day, his second sister would not leave on her own initiative.

"There are about 110 million tons left."

Steven replied quickly.

"When will it end?"

"There has been some chaos on the west coast recently, which has affected the work efficiency of the port. Based on this assumption, it will take at least eight to ten days."

Steven estimated.

After all, it is a super freighter with hundreds of thousands of tons, and it will take a few days to load it, so it is useless to rush.

Zhang Hao cut to the chase and said, "Second brother-in-law, I heard from my second sister that you bought a ticket on the 28th?"

"That's right, your second sister specifically asked for it."

"Can you come back early?"

Zhang Hao secretly sighed in his heart, as expected, everything was done by the second sister.

"Xiaohao, you also know your second sister's temper. It's useless to persuade her. Anyway, it's only a few days, so why don't you let her stay until the 28th?"

Steve chose to side with his wife.

Zhang Hao couldn't help but increase his tone: "Steve, you can't mess around with my second sister. I hope you can leave today. I'll find a way to get the air ticket."

"It's not about the ticket."

Steve shook his head.

"What's the reason for that? Don't tell me that you got kickbacks from it? If that's the case, how much is lost, and I'll pay you directly."

Zhang Hao said earnestly.

"No, your second sister can't do this kind of thing."

"There must be a reason, right?"

"Actually, it's okay to tell you. In the past two days, Mayor He of Huicheng and Governor Li have called your second sister every three days.

There is only one purpose in the words, and that is to hope that your second sister can persevere and try to transport all the goods back safely. "

Steve reluctantly replied.

"Damn it!" Zhang Hao cursed directly, "Why didn't you tell me?"

"Alice is afraid that you will hold you back."

"How could it be a delay? I'm saving the lives of both of you."

Zhang Hao didn't even know what to say.

Steve sighed: "I understand, I have also persuaded your second sister, so she agreed to leave on the 28th."

"The sulphurite volcano may erupt at any time, and the 28th is too unsafe."

Zhang Hao deliberately exaggerated the degree of danger.

"It doesn't matter. Mayor He personally promised us that once the Sulfur Rock Volcano erupts, he will arrange personnel to send us away as soon as possible."

"How to guarantee? The distance between the two places is more than 1 kilometers? Do you know what is beyond reach?"

"You don't need to explain, I know what it means. Don't worry, Mayor He has helped us contact the local Huicheng Chamber of Commerce in Los Angeles. The Chamber of Commerce is said to have several private jets."

"Steven, I think you've heard another saying, 'plans don't change fast'."

Steven was silent for a long time, then he said:

"Xiao Hao, you don't need to persuade us anymore, the Sulfur Rock Volcano is not that easy to erupt, and even if it does erupt, it may not necessarily be on a large scale.

To be honest, your sister is not only doing it for you this time, but she also wants to prove herself to everyone. In her words, if she misses this opportunity, she will regret it for the rest of her life. We should support her. "

This time it was Zhang Hao's turn to be silent.

For a long time, although his second sister said verbally that she had forgotten what happened back then, she still couldn't let go of it in her heart. Otherwise, the other party would not have done the thing of running away from home, and she would have been away for more than ten years.

In the end, Zhang Hao could only choose to remain silent.

It stands to reason that the 28th should be in time.

It's just that he felt a little uneasy in his heart. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember it.
