Next door, at Chu Chu’s house, smoke drifted from the chimney.
The other neighbors of the bungalow, such as Teacher Qian and Uncle Tang, are old and often sleep less. At this moment, they are each holding bowls and chopsticks, sitting in front of their homes, eating and chatting.
Uncle Tang praised: "The daughter of Hua Fengmei's family is really extraordinary. She has gotten up early to cook every day since she moved here."
After hearing this, Teacher Qian seemed to be taboo about something. He lowered his voice and said, "Hua Fengmei is not simple!"
When the other party first moved here, he took advantage of the fact that he was an old resident and relied on his old age. As a result, Hua Fengmei did not give him any face.
Uncle Tang sighed: "They used to be from the village. There is no man in her family, and the daughter is beautiful. If she doesn't be stronger, won't she be bullied to death?"
Teacher Qian understood and nodded: "That's true."
"According to me, this kind of girl should not be born into an ordinary family." Uncle Tang said.
He has lived for many years and has come from that era. He knows very well that beautiful girls from poor families often end badly.
Teacher Qian used to be a teacher, “It’s not easy for little gangsters!”
He added: "On the contrary, Xiao Gu's Tongtong is pretty good, and it's not easy to get into trouble."
Uncle Tang said happily: "Now it's okay to cause trouble. I think Jiang Ning is not easy and has never suffered a loss."
Teacher Qian's face was a little dark.
…
Jiang Ning put out the agarwood, and his consciousness noticed Chu Chu busy in the kitchen, so he stood up and opened the door.
He didn't go to Chu Chu's house first, but turned around and called Tongtong.
Pushing open the bedroom door, he happened to meet Tongtong's opened eyes.
"You're awake, why don't you get up?" Jiang Ning said.
Xue Yuantong huddled in the bed, only showing his cute little face, and he was still a little unconscious.
Jiang Ning: "Get up. Boss Yang asked us to help attract customers this morning. Don't you earn the two hundred yuan reward?"
Xue Yuantong hummed: "Let me sleep for a while."
Jiang Ning: "When you sleep, you know how to sleep."
Xue Yuantong: "I am a bottle of wine now."
Jiang Ning: "What kind of wine?"
"A bottle of beautiful and mellow red wine, I am sobering up now." Xue Yuantong vowed.
Jiang Ning said happily: "Hey, let me smell it and see if it smells good."
Xue Yuantong quickly huddled into bed.
Jiang Ning teased her for a while, then turned around and went to Chu Chu's house.
…
urban area.
After the Wu brothers were arrested, officials solicited evidence from all walks of life about their involvement in crimes.
Yao's father made an appointment with officials today to testify and talk.
He packed his bag and was about to go out when he saw his daughter Yaoyao and her cat, also looking like they were going out.
Although his daughter often had conflicts with his wife and even ran away from home, Father Yao always treated his daughter very well.
He said: "Wherever you go, I'll take you there."
Yao Yiyao said: "Go to the pet shop and give it a bath. It's too dirty."
Anyone who has raised a cat knows that bathing a cat is not too difficult, but blowing the cat's fur is a very troublesome task, so Yao Yiyao usually takes all the things to the pet shop to handle.
Yao's father knew where the pet shop was, "I'm just on my way to see you off."
Yao Yiyao added: "After taking a bath, I want to take it out for a walk. Dad, can you take me to the river dam?"
‘Heba?’ Father Yao thought of a young man named Yang who opened a farmhouse in Heba. He said, “Okay, you wait at the pet shop. I’ll take you there after finishing my errands. I’ll meet some friends for lunch at noon.”
Yao Yiyao happily agreed.
She is often taken to dinner parties by her father to eat and drink. She has long been used to it and is not afraid of strangers.
…
nine in the morning.
Yao Yiyao arrived at Heba by car with her clean Maine Coon cat in her arms.
Just before the car was about to turn down the river dam, she saw a sign erected on the side of the road. Two familiar figures stood beside the sign. Before Yao Yiyao could see the words on the sign clearly, they had already disappeared from sight.
roadside.
Xue Yuantong stared at the cards and saw a few big characters on them:
[Farmhouse fish pond, fishing for half a day for 100 yuan, and the air force will give you a chicken]
She said: "Jiang Ning, a chicken is so precious. Will Boss Yang suffer a loss?"
She remembered that the chickens raised in Boss Yang's farmhouse were all free-range native chickens that grew up eating insects. Such domestically raised native chickens were so expensive that you couldn't even buy them for 100 yuan.
Jiang Ning said calmly: "Don't worry, it won't happen."
"Besides, Boss Yang will give us a commission, so we can earn more, right?" he added.
Xue Yuantong: "Indeed, wealth can be found in danger!"
Jiang Ning: "Yes, you already know how to make money at such a young age, and your future is limitless."
After being praised, Xue Yuantong felt proud in his heart.
If she was praised by Chen Siyu, she would just smile. After all, Siyu was not good at it.
But Jiang Ning was very capable and was recognized by a strong person. She felt so happy that she couldn't help but fold her arms.
"In the future, when I make a lot of money, you will be in charge of my money bag and take me to eat, drink and have fun." Xue Yuantong imagined the future.
Jiang Ning: "It's tiring to manage money. You have to cook for me."
Xue Yuantong thought for a while and said, "That's okay."
"However, if I am too busy, you can hire Chu Chu with money and let her cook." Xue Yuantong has already figured out a solution for her when she is busy.
Jiang Ning: "Chu Chu's cooking is not as good as yours."
Xue Yuantong was elated by the praise, and she happily said: "Then I will spend less time making money."
The two of them were bragging and waiting, and time passed quickly.
Today is a holiday and the weather is very good, so there is no shortage of pedestrians on the asphalt road in Heba. Many people drive their private cars and bring their families to play by the river, as well as camping and picnicking.
The fishing sign had been up for a while, and a middle-aged man wearing a leather jacket saw it and couldn't help but be attracted to it.
He came closer and asked: "Is it true or false?"
Jiang Ning: "It's true."
Leather Jacket is very experienced: "You won't fool me with chicken cubs, will you?"
Xue Yuantong was immediately shocked. She asked the middle-aged uncle: "How come you even know this?"
Leather Jacket said smugly: "Hey, you've had a lot of experience, what don't you know?"
Xue Yuantong: "It's amazing that I have been deceived like this!"
The muscles on Leather Jacket's face twitched, but the other person was a little girl, so he couldn't care about it, right?
Jiang Ning: "It's not chicken cubs, it's native chickens raised at home. Don't you know there is a farmhouse nearby? It has a good reputation!"
Yang Fei's farmhouse is indeed doing well. Although the price is expensive, the quality is nothing to say, and it only makes money for the middle class.
When Leather Jacket saw that they were serious about what they said and that they had the endorsement of the farmhouse, he was moved.
After all, if you go fishing by the river, the probability of the air force is quite high, and the farmhouse has a fish pond, so you can definitely catch fish for only 100 yuan.
If you can't catch any fish, you can still catch a chicken for free.
"Got it!" Leather Jacket agreed.
Jiang Ning and Tongtong took him to the fish pond next to the bungalow.
After more than an hour and several trips back and forth, Jiang Ning and Tong Tongluo deceived a total of eight people and made a profit of 800 yuan.
Jiang Ning originally planned to add a few words on the cards to let the fishing guy find his own way.
But Tongtong was not tired at all and kept running back and forth in order to make money.
Jiang Ning saw the sweat on Tongtong's forehead. He took out a tissue and wiped it for her. Xue Yuantong just giggled there.
Jiang Ning lowered his head and stared at her silly look, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He didn't believe that Tongtong couldn't guess the risks in this business.
However, out of trust in herself, she still firmly supported herself.
Even if he told her that he was going to Bibei to make big money, she would probably follow him without hesitation, right?
Jiang Ning stretched out his hand, and abundant spiritual power flowed from his palm. It was the power to easily crush steel, enough to face all risks in the world.
He put his hand on Tongtong's hair and rubbed it gently.
Until he deceived five more guests, Jiang Ning felt that the size of the fish pond was enough to accommodate these guests. Any more people would affect the fishing experience.
Then he carried the sign and slowly returned to the bungalow.
Boss Yang already knew everything. He hid his worries in his heart, but still said cheerfully: "Jiang Ning, your way of attracting customers is quite interesting!"
Jiang Ning: "Don't worry, I won't let you lose."
Boss Yang was open-minded and comforted: "It's okay, it's not bad to attract customers this way. As long as a few people can stay for dinner and become regular customers, we can still make money."
Besides, it doesn't matter if you lose money. Jiang Ning will definitely give you some wild mushrooms in the future.
Even if Yang Fei doesn't need it himself, it is definitely appropriate to give it to his father-in-law as a gift.
"I'll greet the guests first." Yang Fei said goodbye.
Jiang Ning called Tongtong: "Let's see if they caught any fish."
Passing by Chu Chu's house, Chu Chu was holding the washed sheets and quilts and drying them. She was really hardworking.
Every holiday, I would clean the house, wipe the furniture, brush the shoes, clean the flower pots...
In the past, Jiang Ning thought that Tongtong was already good at housework, but Chuchu was even better. She was simply the holy body of a 'good wife and loving mother'.
Well, the term "good wife and loving mother" has been regarded as a derogatory term by Lu Qiqi and others.
Jiang Ning rushed all the way to the edge of the bungalow and passed through a row of bare trees. An oval pond thirty meters long and fifteen meters wide came into view.
The water reflects the blue sky and white clouds, and there are many fishermen sitting around.
Boss Yang set up a table nearby. There were spiced peanuts, broad beans, melon seeds, a few tea bottles and some paper cups on the table. He did not treat these customers badly because Jiang Ning was good at making decisions, but arranged them well.
When Leather Jacket saw Jiang Ning coming, he laughed loudly and said, "Young man, I've been fishing for a long time and I haven't caught any fish. I really need to get one of your native chickens!"
Not only was he wearing a leather jacket, but there was also a middle-aged man with a general belly next to him. He also smiled, without the annoyance of the air force before.
Jiang Ning: "Oh, not bad!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he unleashed a burst of spiritual power, turned into an invisible big hand, suddenly grasped the crucian carp in the pond, and pressed the fish's mouth forcefully onto the fishhook of his leather jacket.
The float suddenly sank.
Xue Yuantong shouted: "I took the bait!"
Instinctively, Leather Jacket quickly reeled in the line, and sure enough, a palm-sized crucian carp was thrown out of the water.
Leather Jacket exclaimed: "I caught a fish!"
He was not upset, but a little surprised. After all, catching fish was quite a happy thing, and people like them were not here to take advantage.
Jiang Ning stayed by the fish pond for more than ten minutes, making sure that everyone caught fish before he left with satisfaction.
Xue Yuantong was jumping with joy, "Get rich, get rich!"
After I went back and told Boss Yang, Boss Yang was also in disbelief:
'What the hell, are there so many fish in my fish pond?'
…
Near noon, Boss Yang paid Jiang Ning the reward.
Thirteen fishermen received a ticket of one thousand three thousand yuan, plus the original reward of two hundred yuan, he gave Jiang Ning one thousand five hundred yuan.
Jiang Ning first took two hundred, then six hundred and fifty, insisting on fifty-fifty.
"Sure." Boss Yang agreed.
Looking back, I did the math, excluding the 850 paid to Jiang Ning, Boss Yang lost 450. It was a huge profit, and he only had to pay a few kilograms of pond fish and peanuts and broad beans.
Xue Yuantong returned with a wad of banknotes and showed off his power.
Several cars parked at the door of the bungalow, and many people gathered. Yao Yiyao was wearing a Japanese-style green plaid suspender skirt and an apricot shirt on her arms. She was holding a young Maine Coon cat in her arms, looking like a pampered little princess.
.
When she saw the banknotes in Xue Yuantong's hand, she looked slightly curious.
When Teacher Qian saw it, he asked: "Where did it come from?"
Xue Yuantong said firmly: "You've earned it!"
After asking about the reason, Teacher Qian couldn't help but said bitterly: "I charge a hundred yuan to catch a fish. I might as well go to the river to fish! I don't charge a penny!"
Xue Yuantong: "You may not be able to catch it by the river."
Teacher Qian was dissatisfied: "What if I can catch fish?"
Xue Yuantong: "Then I'll charge you a hundred."
Teacher Qian was trembling with anger.
The timid Xue Yuantong is no longer seen. Who in the end spoiled her like this?
After Jiang Ning and Xue Yuantong disappeared, Teacher Qian adjusted his emotions. He found Yao Yiyao's cat and marveled: "Your cat is quite beautiful, clean and good-looking."
When Yao Yiyao faced other people's compliments, she said: "Maine Coon cat, I just got washed in the store today."
Teacher Qian was surprised: "Dear me, are there any shops that specialize in washing cats now?"
Yao Yiyao replied: "Pet shop."
She didn't really want to chat with Teacher Qian. They were not in the same age group at all. She was just about to leave when the daughter of one of her father's business partners came to look for her.
Teacher Qian: "Does it cost 10 yuan to give the cat a bath?"
Yao Yiyao: "It's 80."
Teacher Qian was shocked: "It's only 5 yuan for a human to take a bath, and 80 yuan for a cat. Why spend that wasteful money! Isn't it good to buy a few kilograms of meat to eat?"
He had an unteachable look on his face, full of admiration for a prodigal daughter.
Yao Yiyao felt uncomfortable listening.
She thought about how Jiang Ning and the others dealt with it.
So he said: "Cats are different from people. Cats can also catch mice!"
Teacher Qian asked back: "Who said people can't catch mice?"
Put a mouse trap and make a mouse sticky, the efficiency is also very high.
Yao Yiyao: "Then I'll charge you 80."
After finishing speaking, Yao Yiyao hugged the cat and left with her companions.
Teacher Qian was so angry! He turned around and went back to the house!
…
At the same time, Heba.
A man in his thirties, wearing a peaked cap, squatted by the tree and was on the phone. He responded: "Yes, yes, I understand, Fourth Brother."
"I told my sister-in-law today that after this is done, I will go abroad tonight."
After chatting for a few more words, the man hung up the phone. He silently finished smoking a cigarette, held the butt of the cigarette and pressed it out on the ground.
He stood up and reached for the three-edged knife in his coat pocket.
Then, he took out another photo from his inner pocket and read softly: "Yao, don't blame us for killing the chicken to scare the monkey..."
