Mid-Autumn Festival Special (3)

After enjoying a delicious and sumptuous lunch, Zhang Hao planned to take advantage of the early hour to deliver some mooncakes to Uncle Said and Zero so they could have a taste.

“Terry.....................you really are a monster.”

Meanwhile, Veelong and Roy stared at the satisfied Terry as if he were a ghost. Looking at the empty dining table, Veelong remembered that Terry had once told him that he was a great eater.

Previously, Wei Long also thought that Terry was only slightly better than him, after all, his appetite was among the best in the entire Special Operations Division.

However, after seeing Terry no longer restrain himself and show his full appetite today, Veyron also realized for the first time the gap between himself and Terry.

Weilong: Almost? No, no, no, that's not true at all. I feel like Terry started a rampage after seeing that everyone was almost full. This... this is really a bit scary.

As for Roy, who was standing to the side, he was even more surprised to see Terry in his prime, since he usually couldn't even beat a dragon.

Roy: No, Terry can eat that much? Does that mean he never gets a full meal?

"Brother Weilong, what are you doing? I'm about to leave, are you coming or not?"

Seeing the two people who were completely dumbfounded, Zhang Hao walked over and asked curiously, "What's wrong with these two? They're just staring blankly at Uncle Terry. Does Uncle Terry have some kind of magic?"

Weilong/Roy: This isn't about whether it's magical or not; it's about two small stomachs admiring a big stomach.

But as much as they admired them, Wei Long and Roy quickly said they could set off right away. After all, the world is vast, and raiding bird nests is the most important thing, so they still needed to scout out the location properly.

"Xiao Hao, give me a call after you've delivered the stuff to the Tower of Babel. Of course, if we don't answer right away, just wait a few minutes somewhere. At that point, we'll most likely be being chased by those Asara soldiers."

The three of them also drove a troop carrier and sped off towards the Zero Dam in Sayed.

"Uncle Saeed! I've come to bring you mooncakes."

After arriving at Dam Zero, Zhang Hao parted ways with Wei Long and the others. The two of them, looking serious, went to find the bird's nest with a map. Seeing this, Zhang Hao could only shake his head helplessly and went to find Said with a few bags of mooncakes.

"Oh dear! Why is Xiao Hao here? Waaaaah, look, Xiao Hao's here! Is this homework...................?"

Upon seeing Zhang Hao, Said jumped up excitedly. "Xiao Hao, you're my savior! Not only did you come to save me, but you also brought me some great things!"

"Uncle Said and Sister Sophia, come and try the mooncakes I brought you. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival in China. Uncle Shenlan specially went to headquarters to apply for them. Please have a taste."

Zhang Hao explained to the two of them while taking out the mooncakes, and after receiving the mooncakes, Said immediately opened one and tasted it, then said with a look of surprise:

"Hmm, is this a mooncake? It tastes completely different from the mooncakes we bake here. Sofia, you should try some too."

Seeing Said enjoying his food so much, Sofia also opened a bag of red bean paste mooncakes and took a bite.

Roy: Huh? ? ? ? ? Xiao Hao, didn't you tell me you didn't have red bean paste anymore? Then what's this? Look me in the eyes, huh? ? ?

After taking a bite, Sofia was naturally captivated by the delicious mooncake.

"Really, it's so sweet and delicious! Thank you, Xiao Hao, for bringing us this mooncake."

"By the way, Xiao Hao, did you come alone? Those people in the Special Operations Department are really too careless. Didn't they send anyone to come with you?"

After Saeed finished the mooncakes in his hand at lightning speed, he asked Zhang Hao curiously, "Why did these people let Xiao Hao come out alone? Don't they know that Demulan is searching for Xiao Hao?"

"Ah, no, no, this time Brother Weilong and Roy came with me."

"Huh? Where are they?"

Said opened the office door and looked out, but he didn't see those two guys.

"They went to check the bird nests on the dam. Uncle Sayyid, I'm off too. I still have to deliver mooncakes to a friend of mine!"

After saying goodbye to Said and Sofia, Zhang Hao called the two people who were looking for the bird's nest back.

"What's wrong? You look so dejected."

Seeing their sullen expressions, Zhang Hao asked them what was wrong.

"Sigh, we didn't see a single bird's nest along the way. We only met Abel at the end, and he told us that the bird nest search activity had been suspended for the past few days. Sigh, it's frustrating."

Zhang Hao:...............................

"Let's go, let's hurry up and deliver the things to the Tower of Babel. I really want to go back to my little bed and have a good cry."

Roy, looking disappointed, urged Veyron to hurry up and drive. It was such a great event, and it was so disheartening that it had to be canceled.

"[Zero]! And what about Sister Ella and Uncle Rometheus?"

After arriving at the Tower of Babel, Zhang Hao easily found his way to the floor where Rometheus was located. As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he saw Zero and Sister Ella.

"Xiao Hao, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival" x2

After seeing Zhang Hao, the two also sent him their Mid-Autumn Festival greetings.

"Ella said she wanted to make a few mooncakes for you by hand, and she asked me to help her."

[Zero] pointed to Ella, who was still working hard in front of him, and said to Zhang Hao.

"Oh, Sister Ella, I brought you mooncakes, why don't we just eat these? Is Uncle Rometheus still doing experiments? Should we call him over to try a mooncake first?"

"He ran away as soon as he heard that Ella was going to make mooncakes by hand. He said he was going to go on patrol with the Black Hawk team. I don't know when he will be back."

Zhang Hao: It seems like I'm getting silenced a lot today; I've been silenced again.

"Let's ignore Uncle Rometheus for now, and have a happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!"

Rometheus, far away in the heavens: How terrifying! This is absolutely terrifying! Ella is going to make desserts by herself again. I think I'll stay in the heavens until tonight before going back.

Chapter 362 The Sorrowful Said

"Oh my, you're finally back, Commander Said. Please don't call me for this kind of thing next time. I... I'm a civil servant now. I almost twisted my back just from carrying this."

After seeing someone carry the box into the vault inside the dam, Abel breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his brow.

"This shows that you're really weak right now, Abel. Even lifting this makes you this tired. Think back to how you used to be!"

"Alright, sir, please stop using PUA on me. Your PUA skills are really terrible. I have to go take care of things now. Just take Wuming with you next time."

Watching Abel turn and leave resolutely, Said began to doubt the PUA techniques he had learned in the book.

"Anonymous, are my PUA skills really that bad?"

Said turned to the nameless man and asked, "I've read the whole book, so why is even Abel saying this? It's making me a little insecure."

"Based on the leaders I've encountered before, you'd better not try any PUA tactics; it's unnecessary."

After finishing his sentence, Wuming turned around and went back to catch up on his sleep. He was going to be a mysterious night owl that night, so he needed to get some rest now.

Saeed:............................

Seeing his two capable assistants abandon him, their leader, and leave, Sayid shook his head, sighed, and returned to the administration building to complete his tasks for the day.

"Oh? Why do you look so dejected? Did you get bullied?"

Sofia saw Said start sighing as soon as he entered the door and asked curiously, "What's wrong now? Did you get bullied by Reiss?"

"No, it's just that Abel complained that my PUA skills are terrible, but I clearly read the whole book, I'm definitely pretty good. What do you think of my PUA skills?"

Sofia was both amused and exasperated when she heard that Said looked depressed because of this.

"Come on, you're even trying to use PUA! Take my advice, let's just be sincere with each other, okay? You... don't even think about PUA, that's not a skill you can master. Besides, aren't all the guys at the dam our brothers? What need do you have for PUA?"

Sofia also offered some words of comfort to Said, saying, "This silly man wasn't smart to begin with, how come he's starting to learn PUA now? Is this something you can learn? You're just trying to learn it."

"Huh? I read in that book that as a leader, learning PUA techniques can be very beneficial for motivating employees and for the team, right?"

Sofia was completely at a loss when she saw Said's "innocent and clear" eyes.

Sofia: 666, she didn't even realize she was being manipulated by a book, hopeless.

Sofia explained the PUA to Sayed, and then, to prevent Sayed from getting stuck on this, she assigned him twice the usual amount of work.

Said: I was wrong, I'll never read this kind of book again. Sophia, can't we talk this out? Don't give me extra homework all the time. I... my CPU is going to explode.

. . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . .

Meanwhile, inside the Special Operations Department, the trio who had restrained themselves from taking action were gathered in the living room in a rather serious manner. Zhang Hao asked and learned that Roy originally planned to ask Deep Blue for the key to hold a small three-person meeting in the Special Operations Department's conference room, but in the end, Wei Long said he saw Roy being kicked out by Deep Blue.

"So brothers, let's combine our previous findings of where we found the bird nests, and we'll have to figure out the location of the Bakshi bird nests on our own."

After Roy unfolded the map of Baksh, he said to Weilong and Red Wolf with a serious expression that the three of them had to make sure that this bird nest raid was foolproof.

“Wynn, tomorrow you drive to Said and borrow three sets of Asara soldiers’ uniforms.”

The three of them had made thorough preparations for this plan, and the first thing they needed to prepare for this operation was their clothing.

You see, the reason they were recognized before was because they were wearing GTI combat uniforms. So every time they were discovered by Asara rocket soldiers, they had to be put to sleep. But that's why they always made a huge commotion when they raided a bird's nest.

The thought of the three of them being chased almost the entire Longbow Valley yesterday made Roy's legs tremble. He wasn't like Xiao Hao, who was still a young man. Speaking of which, Xiao Hao was quite a monster, running from the Tower of Babel to Dam Zero in one go.

But I can't compare myself to a young man like Xiao Hao. I have a daughter now, so I shouldn't try to be strong. I absolutely can't do what I did last time, or my legs will probably break from running.

Therefore, this leads to the second point of this operation. After giving instructions to Wei Long, Roy immediately turned to Red Wolf and said:

"Red Wolf, starting tomorrow, the two of us will begin observing the distribution of bird nests in Longbow Valley and Bakshi. We'll each take a spot and figure out where all the nests are placed. Then we'll look for patterns in them, understand?"

Red Wolf also gave Roy a thumbs up, indicating that he would take care of it.

"Leave the most dangerous place, Longbow Valley, to me. If I get surrounded, I can still escape by speeding away."

After the tasks were assigned, the three of them put their arms around each other's shoulders and shouted:

"Success is a must!!!"

But what seemed like such a thrilling scene was, in the eyes of Zhang Hao and Mai Xiaowen, just three bird nest thieves secretly discussing something while holding a map, trying to suppress their laughter and shaking their heads, and then hugging each other and yelling after they finished discussing.

"Xiao Hao, you'd better not hang out with these three guys for a while. If you don't have anyone to play with, go to the Tower of Babel and find [Zero] to play with, that's better than dealing with these idiots, understand?"

Zoya rubbed Zhang Hao's head and said, "These three guys are always making a racket here. Can't they be a little quieter?"

Chapter 363 Confident men are the most handsome.

"I understand, Sister Zoya."

Just after Zhang Hao finished speaking, his phone rang in his pocket. He took it out and saw that it was Sayid calling him.

"Hey, Uncle Said, you're back? How did the operation go? Did it go smoothly?"

Said: Waaaaah, Hao's first words were all about caring for me, I'm so touched, waaaaah! Wuming, you and Abel, you two treated me so badly! Can't you learn even a little bit of Hao's manners?

"It went very smoothly, Xiao Hao. The three of us were exhausted from carrying that box of gold bars. I plan to use this money to upgrade all the staff dormitories at our dam. After all, we have the means now. I think upgrading everyone's homes will boost everyone's enthusiasm for work and life."

After listening to the conversation on the other end of the phone, Zhang Hao nodded in satisfaction. Uncle Said was showing more and more potential as a political commissar. He would entrust the task of spreading the red culture in Asara to Uncle Said. He believed that Uncle Said would not let him down.

“Great! Uncle Said, you’ve made great progress. I think everyone will be very happy. Didn’t you say before that there were too many people at the dam and it was difficult to operate? Well, a lot of people have gone back to Longbow Valley these past few days, right? Now you can start operating it too, Uncle Said.”

"Waaah, Xiao Hao, you really understand me! That's right, that's exactly what I was thinking. In a bit... no, I'll give the order now. Well, Xiao Hao, that's all for now. Uncle is going to contact the material supplier."

After finishing his conversation, Sayed hung up the phone with great enthusiasm, preparing to go abroad to import a batch of decoration materials.

But just as he was about to leave, Sophia called him back.

"Wait, Said, where are you going again? Have you forgotten something?"

Said turned around and asked Sofia with eyes full of curiosity:

"Oh? I need to order those renovation materials. What's wrong? Is there anything else I need?"

Looking at the innocent-looking Said in front of her, Sofia couldn't tell for a moment whether he was pretending to be stupid or genuinely stupid, and said:

"Then give me the phone, I'll order it for you. You, just sit here and finish your homework for today."

Upon hearing this, Sophia was stunned. What... what's wrong with Said? Is it now so blatant to skip homework?

"How would someone like you, sitting in an office all day, know how much to order? And do you even know which supplier is reliable and won't rip you off? Let's talk about the homework tomorrow. I'm going to take Abel to calculate how much material we need myself. You have no idea about this stuff. I'm an expert in this area."

After saying that, Said turned around and left, leaving Sofia, who looked completely dumbfounded, in the office.

After a moment of silence, murmurs could be heard from the office:

"Idiot, when you're confident, you're actually quite handsome..."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Hao belatedly realized that he hadn't asked Uncle Said if the bird eggs were placed in a regular pattern.

Zhang Hao looked at the three people who were hoping to find the golden bird egg every day and was speechless. Did they really want it that much? He had previously offered to give the golden bird egg to Brother Weilong, but Brother Weilong had refused.

Zhang Hao: This is tricky. Brother Weilong, I have solid evidence to prove that you just wanted to steal someone else's bird's nest. Otherwise, shouldn't you have happily taken my golden bird egg and said you would never steal bird eggs from Asara's soldiers again?

But since I forgot this time, I'll just ask Uncle Said next time. After all, if I don't find them something to do these next few days, they'll start bothering me again when they get bored.
