Chapter 28: Impromptu Family Gathering

  "Looks like that's it, how'd I do, gramps?"

  "Not bad, kid. Though I think we could have roughed him up some before we let him go."

  "Yeah, I wao give that scumbag a kick food measure. I'm sure the miners would've appreciated it." Alice added.

  "Well, maybe ime. I'm sure we'll enter more than a few pieces of garbage iure, so there will be plenty of opportuo dish out physical punishment."

  "I'll keep you to it." My gramps said.

  "Okay, now that we got the keys for the pd the paperwork, let's go check out the colpsed se of the mine and see what the molemen are doing."

  Getting a nod from the two, we strolled through the pce going in the dire of the mine. After a number of minutes, we reached the mirand began heading into it, and within a short period of walking, we arrived in front of a literal wall of colpsed rock.

  Reag our destination, I crept up to the rubble. In the blink of an eye, I detected the same two molemen I had found st time I was here. However, instead of standing guard like they were doing previously, they were instead resting, leaning up against the walls of the miunnel with their respective ons zily strewn about beside them.

  I stayed in my current position for another minute and when nothing else of note occurred, I quietly backed away from the rubble and said. "The same two molemen I discovered st time are still there, though this time both of them are resting with their ons beside them instead of guarding the colpsed se."

  "Hmm, I guess they're not pg too much importan guard duty. If they were, I guarantee we would've seen an increase in the number of molemen statiohere. They also wouldn't be zily lounging about if they were that ed, either." Gramps figured.

  "I suppose so... Anyway, I'll still prepare the necessary defeo cover the mine in the meantime while I begin making my preparations to get rid of them."

  "Of course, you ever be too careful with those rats."

  Sihe molemen didn't make movements and actually rexed their security to aent, we didn't o adjust my pre-existing pn. So with nothing else needing to be taken care of here at this very moment, we just up ahe facility and traveled home.

  A not-so-long drive ter through the crete aal juhat was the uy, the three of us arrived back at the house. Back at home again, Alid I got to studying while gramps plopped himself down ba the coud watched TV once again, presumably until diime because there was nothing else that required his attention.

  A couple of hours flew on by before my pareually returned home from a long day's work. When they did, they were somewhat surprised to see the old man just chilling on the couch half asleep when normally he goes home after training Alid I.

  "Hey Mom, Dad, gramps is staying for dinner. Do you want to call Grandpa and Grandma to see if they want to e over to eat, too?"

  "Of course, I'll make the call." My mom said excitedly before quickly hurrying off to do just that.

  While my mom was off making the call, dad came and sat down in the living room with the three of us and asked. "So how was your day, son?"

  "I had a productive day, and you?" I replied back, as he begaelling a good portion of what he did managing the pany.

  Following that, mom returned and informed us that my Grandma and Grandpa Henry would be joining us shortly, so before they got here, she, Alice, and I moved to the kit to begin preparing dinner for the impromptu family gathering we were having.

  Several minutes into cooking they showed up and as soon as they came in through the door, my Grandma Emelia joined us i, fastening the pace of our preparations even further. The four of us all w together, made short work of the task at hand and had all the food prepared in record time.

  Thus, with the meal preparations made, we swiftly delivered the assortment of piping hot dishes to the dining room table, sat down, and had quite a festive dinner. Whehing was eventually eaten up and the mess was being brought away to be ed, I pulled Grandpa Henry off to the side and handed him the papers o acquire the property.

  Upon seeing the dots I handed him, he gave them a peruse, and after giving them a closer look, he was very surprised with the tent they tained, especially the price that was going to be paid for the property.

  "That's the best I was able to do, Grandpa. I hope it's enough."

  "I have no idea how you mao get a 75% dist for that facility. heless, you did great. I'm proud of you, Dom."

  I smiled brightly at my grandpa's praise and asked. "So, when do you think all the procedures will be handled? I really want to get w on the ideas I've e up with over the years."

  "I would say han lunchtime tomorrow. Mr. Birch is extremely effit at his job."

  "That's holy impressive."

  The two of us talked about a few other topics when I decided to things up to go help with the ing.

  "Okay, Grandpa, I'm gonna go help up. Thanks again for all the help."

  "No problem, Dom, anytime." My Grandpa Henry said st before I raced off to the kit to tribute to the ing alongside my family, Alice, and the Miss Maid robot my parents bought years ago.

  ...

  Nice, everything is ed up. Let me pull my gramps downstairs and see if he 't help me out with all the equipment I need.

  Needing an assortment of maery, equipment, and numerous other tools and materials for the many things I wao manufacture, I pulled my gramps aside. Right as the two of us made it downstairs, I informed him of when the property would officially be mine.

  Upon filling him in on that, I asked him if he could help me out with getting the different manufacturing maes I was going to require to start manufacturing the plethora of items I required for my pns.

  He asked a few questions beforehand about the types of maes I required as well as their estimated costs, but as expected, I got a yes in the end. My grandpa John ready to help me out again tomorrow, the two of us went back upstairs and rejoihe family for a movie before my grandparents took off for their homes.

  Following my grandparents' departure, the rest of us quickly got ready for bed and turned in for the night shortly thereafter.
