<h4>Chapter 392: Another Screeny Sold</h4>
“Chen, give them to me. I’ll give you both of my daughters. I love them so much.” Winnip hugged Princess’ head and kept patting and ruffling.
“Mom, I don’t care about Fali, but am I that cheap?” Faur asked unhappily.
Winnip rarely got the chance to be yful. Her moods were really like a rollercoaster today.
When she learned that someone had poisoned her store, it felt like she’d fallen into an abyss. Who would’ve guessed that there would be such a theatric development?
Not only did nothing bad happen, but Mara Supermarket also got great publicity.
“Go ask them. Whoever’s willing to stay can stay.”
Speechless, Winnip rejected him. Of course, she didn’t expect Chen Zhao to ept her proposition. It had just been a joke. Chen Zhao would never agree.
“Okay, I know it’s impossible, but you have to lend them to me for these few days. Half of the store’s customers are here for them.”
Ring!
Chen Zhao’s phone went off. “Hello? Rasfa, what’s up?”
“You’re in Sacramento, right?”
“How do you know?”
“Your entire family is in the news and you’re asking me how I know?”
“You saw the news too?”
“I don’t usually watch this kind of news, but mypany had a copyright meeting and I hosted it. Our employees think that what happened to your family has a great market. If we adapt it into a movie, it can have a lot of potential.”
“You want to buy the copyright again?”
“Yes. How about it? Sell it to me.”
“Yourpany bought the copyright to that other movie, but you haven’t started filming it, right?”
“It’s not conflicting.”
“What price?”
“No bargaining, $500,000.”
Chen Zhao considered it. “The price is okay, but I hope that Mara Supermarket’s name can be included in the script.”
“What’s your rtionship with the supermarket?”
“It’s Fali’s mother’s store.”
“Sure,” Rasfa agreed easily.
Usually, this kind of product cement had to be paid for. It could cost a few million or even ten million dors. However, since the business was rted to Chen Zhao, Rasfa didn’t mind giving it to him.
After discussing with Rasfa, Chen Zhao told Winnip about it. After all, if this event could be turned into a movie, it would be very beneficial to her store.
After hearing that a filmpany bought the rights and may turn it into a movie, she was immediately interested and started asking Chen Zhao questions. Chen Zhao couldn’t give any exact answers. After all, whether the movie could be filmed wasn’t up to him.
Somepanies bought the rights not to film a movie but to make surepetitors couldn’t get the rights. Chen Zhao estimated that PLM wouldn’t start this project in at least half a year.
“Right, did you catch Russville, the guy that hired the poisoners?” Chen Zhao asked.
Winnip smiled. It was Chen Zhao’s first time seeing such a cruel smile on her.
“The police will probably never find him.”
Chen Zhao didn’t keep asking. Some things were better left unspoken.
...
The fourth day after the shooting, Kane was brought home. Karim and Howard came back too.
Kane’s condition wasn’t bad anymore. He didn’t have many problems other than being a bit weak. If you insisted on a problem, it was that he was bald now.
He wanted to cry because Princess kepting over to touch his head.
“Stop touching my head. I can feel my skullcap moving.”
“Stop licking. I feel spit getting into my wound.”
“Chen, are you sure Raymond doesn’t want to hibernate on my head?”
Chen Zhao nced at Kane. It couldn’t be helped. Earlier, Chen Zhao had used the perfect potion when treating Kane. There were still remnants inside Kane’s head. It was good enough that Princess and the others didn’t open up his skull again.
“I’m so bored. Let’s go fishing,” Laurent suggested.
“Not going,” Chen Zhao refused directly.
Anyway, he decided that he’d rather die than ever go out with Laurent again. Who knew if Laurent wanted to prank him again?
Laurent nced at him. “I wasn’t asking you. Kane, Karim, Howard, let’s go.”
...
Laurent took the three bodyguards fishing. Fali and Faur went shopping again.
Winnip brought the group of pets to the supermarket because they were very popr. Mara’s customer volume expanded greatly recently.
No one would have thought that these pets could double Mara’s customers.
Chen Zhao didn’tze around by himself at home. The new house at Mirror Lake was getting decorated. There were many things that he needed to be asked about.
Bant and Felwood had tomunicate with him often. The housekeeping system was installed already. They had to discuss with Chen Zhao about installing other furniture too. Otherwise, it would be more troublesome to fix things afterward.
“Mr. Chen, I think this wall should have some color. White is the main theme, but if everything is all white, it’s too monotone. You can add a scenic painting here to add some color. It alsoplements the river view from the floor-to-ceiling window across from it.”
“Sure, but I don’t want it to be too shy.”
“Also, are you sure you don’t want to add anything to the second basement?”
“No need. It doesn’t need any style or design. Just whitewash the walls.” He thought for a moment. “Oh, go to the first basement. I want to see how it feels overall.”
Felwood rode the elevator to the first underground floor. He opened a video chat and showed Chen Zhao what the floor looked like after construction.
“From the bottom of the stairs to the floor-to-ceiling window on the outer wall, don’t do anything other than whitewash the walls along the path. I’m going to put argescale piece of art there.”
“Okay, understood. Can you tell me what kind of art?”
“A skeleton model. I found a Hollywood expert to make a monster’s skeleton.”
“Then how about I make the walls darker?”
“Okay. Also, help me try out the housekeeping system. Notify me if there are any problems.”
“Okay.”
Chen Zhao was the most satisfied with the first underground floor. The curved floor-to-ceiling window was 12 meters long and three meters wide. You could see the bottom of the river. However, construction had just finished, so the water needed some time to settle before it cleared up.
