Chapter 231 Only when you are full can you have strength
There is nothing wrong with Chujiu and Deng Deyou being happy enemies.
After the meal, the two of them battled wits and disliked each other to death. They came up with countless reasons to dislike each other from head to toe. When others were trying to disagree, the two of them stood on the same line.
Chujiu touched his bulging belly and leaned on the chair, saying that he would not be able to walk if he continued to eat.
"Look at your worthless look. One person can eat more than the five of us."
Deng Deyou pushed the chicken drumstick on the plate in front of Chujiu away with a look of disgust on his face, and did not forget to tease Chujiu casually.
"What do you know? How can you have the strength to work if you don't eat enough? Besides, you have to eat more when things are difficult to solve. If you can solve the problem in minutes, I will feel sorry for you even if you eat a bowl of noodles."
Chujiu stood up and walked a few steps along the table in the private room, euphemistically calling it "Xiaoxiaoshi", and maybe he could even eat a chicken leg.
Next to the dining table in the private room is a square table for guests to play cards and entertain themselves.
Jing Fei suggested playing cards to pass the time, and the other three agreed and walked to the table.
Chujiu wanted to join in the fun, but he was quickly pushed away by the four people, saying that it would affect the experience of playing cards.
Chujiu had no choice but to sit at the dining table, pick up the Coke and take another sip.
"Are you sure?"
Sometimes I also wonder how Chujiu, who is about the same size as a refugee, packs so much food into his stomach.
"Guo Guo, I can't tell. But they must not be evil spirits, otherwise they wouldn't be sitting there playing cards."
Chujiu pointed at the square table next to him, his eyes never leaving the fried chicken in front of him.
"How are you going to deal with it?"
Faced with my inquiry, Chujiu said, just take it one step at a time, and you will find a solution when you get to the warehouse.
Chujiu almost made him mad to death. It seemed that if he didn't finish the fried chicken in front of him, his thoughts would definitely not be on Deng Deyou's warehouse.
I was also helpless with Chujiu’s appearance in front of delicious food.
Fortunately, there were some magazines on the wall of the hotel room. I picked one up and started to pass the time.
"Guo Guo, I really can't eat anymore this time, let's go."
"Go? Where? School?"
Before I could answer Chujiu, Deng Deyou spoke first.
Looking forward to the stars and the moon, Chujiu and I finally met. When Chujiu said he was leaving, Deng Deyou felt nervous. He was afraid that something would happen to Chujiu today, so he refused to go to the warehouse.
"Tch! Of course I'm going to your warehouse! What are you thinking about? No wonder you keep losing."
Deng Deyou's poker luck is indeed not very good these days. I have almost read every magazine and I haven't seen him win a few times.
"Uh, warehouse, okay, okay, scared me, I thought you were going to..."
Deng Deyou was so excited that he was at a loss. He said "OK" three times in a row, threw the cards in his hand on the table, stood up and left the table.
"Old Deng, can't you afford to lose? I'll win if I play one more card. Throw the card away."
Facing Jing Fei's scolding, Deng Deyou grinned and pointed at Chujiu.
"Sending Master to the warehouse is the most important thing. We can't delay the business."
On the way here, I heard Uncle Ding tell what happened, and knowing that they had been working hard these days, I suggested that Deng Deyou just send us to the warehouse while the others go home to rest.
As a result of the final discussion, Uncle Ding and Deng Deyou sent us to the warehouse first, and then they returned to the city.
When paying the bill, the front desk staff said that the hotel currently has an event for VIP customers, giving away two convenient packages of Guangxi's authentic Liuzhou snail noodles.
When they heard about snail powder, Deng Deyou and Jing Fei's expressions changed, they shook their heads and said no.
"What you want, what you want, give it to me."
Chujiu, who was standing behind a few people, rushed to Deng Deyou, took the snail powder from the staff, and gave Deng Deyou a rollicking look.
“How can you not want this kind of peerless delicacy?
After Chujiu finished speaking, the staff member also smiled and nodded in agreement that it was indeed delicious. In exchange, Deng Deyou and Jing Fei looked disgusted.
Deng Deyou's warehouse is indeed relatively remote, not far from the Jialing River and a 40-minute drive from the city.
After getting off the car, Deng Deyou took out his keys and was about to open the door. When he saw Chujiu and I standing next to the car without moving, we simply stood aside.
"Guo Guo, what did you see?"
"The layout of Feng Shui is reasonable, gathering Qi and storing wind must have produced a lot of wealth in the past. Now even if it is used as a warehouse, it is still profitable. What about you? What do you see?"
As soon as I finished speaking, Deng Deyou told us that this used to be a big factory and the focus of the city.
After Deng Deyou finished speaking, Chujiu had already walked towards the warehouse gate. I caught up with him, slapped Chujiu on the forehead, and asked him if he hadn't heard me.
Chujiu gave me an aggrieved look, ignored me, and continued walking towards the door.
Deng Deyou became anxious, trotted next to Chujiu, and asked again what he saw and why he didn't bite.
"I saw a hammer! Open the door quickly."
Deng Deyou opened the door of the warehouse and took us into the office not far from the door.
"These two beddings are new. There is food here. This electric kettle can boil water. I also have wine and drinks in the car. I will move them over in a moment. Shall I take you to see the inside of the warehouse first?"
Perhaps because of our presence, Deng Deyou was not as timid as Uncle Ding had said before. He sat on the bunk bed and pointed to the place where we put our daily necessities.
"I understand, Uncle Ding, please go back and leave this place to me and Guo Guo."
Chujiu said that he would check out the specific situation later, and they couldn't help if they stayed, so he urged them to go back and rest quickly.
Deng Deyou repeatedly warned him to pay attention to safety, and Chujiu impatiently wanted to send him to the car.
"There's really no need to send it off. You still have to go out to see it off after these two steps. It's so polite."
Deng Deyou looked at Chujiu who was following him, and kept urging Chujiu to just go back to the warehouse and stay there. Uncle Ding next to him was almost crying with laughter.
"I said Lao Deng, you'd better hurry up and take the drinks out of the car."
Deng Deyou, who was about to speak, suddenly reacted, opened the trunk with an embarrassed look, took out half a box of drinks and handed it to Chujiu.
"Okay, Qin Feng, Chujiu, be careful and don't show off. We will come to pick you up tomorrow."
Uncle Ding smiled helplessly and joked that his teeth would break sooner or later. He patted me on the shoulder, said goodbye to us and got in the car.
"Guo Guo, I found that Boss Deng is getting more and more stupid. He actually thought I was going to see him off, hahahaha."
On the ninth day of the lunar month, half a box of drinks was still on the desk. He opened a bottle and took a sip, then went to a folding wire bed.
"You'd better drink less, don't really damage your teeth."
"The magazine talks about long-term drinking of drinks and Guo Guo. How can we be considered a long-term barbarian? We don't have the money to buy it every day, so drinking won't damage our teeth."
"Okay, let's get down to business. If you mess around again, be careful and I'll get up and beat you up."
Chujiu finally calmed down a little, saying that at least outside the warehouse, he didn't see any trace of evil beings lingering, and he would have to wait until late at night to see everything.
Look at the time, it's only after seven o'clock, which is still early than the twelve o'clock that Uncle Ding said.
After reading a magazine for two hours in the hotel, my eyes felt a little swollen, so I simply closed my eyes and prepared to rest for a while. I might just spend the whole night doing this.
"Guo Guo, I don't feel like it's haunted. I'm not sure exactly what it is right now. I'll just get some sleep. I might really have to do something big tonight."
As soon as I closed my eyes, Chujiu suddenly said these words.
I ignored Chujiu, closed my eyes and began to think about what Uncle Ding said along the way.
I always feel that something is unreasonable, but I can't explain exactly what is unreasonable. Everything is only one key point away from being able to be solved smoothly, and it seems that this key point can only be solved in the ninth day of the lunar month.
I was woken up by a burst of music. Chujiu was lying on the folding bed next to me. He was holding a handheld game console and was pressing the buttons furiously.
"Guo Guo, are you awake? I found this under the pillow. I didn't expect they had a game console."
I looked at the time on the pager, it was 11:40 at night. I didn't expect that I had slept for so long.
"Chujiu, didn't you sleep?"
Chujiu rolled his eyes at me angrily and said that I was snoring too loudly and that he couldn't sleep. He happened to find a game console under his pillow and was playing Tetris. There were 600 levels in the challenge mode, and the last level was
Passed.
Three minutes later, Chujiu put down the game console, rubbed his eyes, and said it was too unchallenging, and he easily passed the level.
"Guo Guo, please tidy up and get up. Let's go to the warehouse for a walk."
Chujiu jumped out of bed, picked up the drink bottle next to him and took a sip, his eyes narrowed with joy.
The warehouse feels much bigger than what I saw outside.
There is a passage on the side of the office, which is nearly twenty meters wide and nearly a hundred meters deep. Various furniture is placed in different areas, all covered with plastic sheets.
There are two vacant positions, and it seems that this type of furniture has been sold.
Soon we walked to the deepest wall of the warehouse. I was sure that this was the window where Deng Deyou saw the giant face, because the plastic paper on the four mahogany chairs not far away had all been removed.
This is a ventilation window, located four meters high on the wall. The window is not big, only one meter square, which is much smaller than the other lighting windows.
"Guo Guo, come here, this chair is quite comfortable."
Chu Jiu was lying on the mahogany chair. Compared with his thin body, the chair was more like a small bed.
It was only after I sat on the chair that I understood what Chujiu said. It is really comfortable, and the design is completely ergonomic. It doesn’t feel as solid as wood even when lying down, and instead allows the muscles and bones to stretch to the maximum extent.
"Guo Guo, I think people in ancient times were smarter. The wooden chairs are more comfortable to sit on than Uncle Ding's sofa."
Chujiu squinted his eyes and stared at the big tree outside the window.
"Guo Guo, let's wait here. It should appear soon. I want to take a closer look to see what is causing trouble!"
Chujiu took out a bunch of copper coins from the small cloth bag around his waist. Chujiu pulled the red string with his hand, and the copper coins turned into a copper coin sword with a clatter.
