Chapter 74 New Discoveries at the Sea
Chu Xuan didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.
Among Uncle Long’s brothers, there is one who specializes in recycling gold.
Fortunately, she disguised herself last time and pretended to be a man selling gold ingots.
As long as she doesn't say it out loud, the person who receives the gold won't know it's her.
About ten minutes later, a brother of Uncle Long named Xiao Huan came over.
After introducing each other and briefly explaining the situation, Uncle Long took out a pen and paper and handed it to Xiao Huan.
Xiao Huan took it and carefully recalled the old woman's appearance.
After all, he had only done two business deals with the old woman this month, and he was very impressed.
Start painting.
After about ten minutes, the facial outline of an old woman came out.
Chu Xuan and Uncle Long looked at each other and saw that it was Feng Chunhua, with inverted triangle eyes, a flat nose, and a pointed chin...
Uncle Long knew what was going on and winked at Chu Xuan, signaling her not to speak for the time being.
Chu Xuan nodded to show that he understood.
Uncle Long pointed to the room in the backyard and said, "Xiao Huan, let's go to the backyard and talk for a while."
"good."
Xiao Huan followed Uncle Long and walked towards the backyard.
Chu Xuan waited patiently in the shop.
After about ten minutes, Xiao Huan said goodbye and left.
Uncle Long then revealed to Chu Xuan, "Feng Chunhua sells gold jewelry from a time-honored brand in Hai City. She's very likely connected to someone in Hai City. I've sent another brother to follow Feng Chunhua. You'll have to be patient. Feng Chunhua just made a lot of money, so she probably won't make any moves soon."
"I understand." Chu Xuan took out twenty yuan from his pocket, "This is for the tea money for that brother."
She still understands the rules and there is no reason to ask someone to run errands for nothing.
But Uncle Long refused to take it. "Xiao Xuan, aren't you slapping me in the face? I'm investigating this not for you, but for your mother. Don't forget, I owe your mother my life. It can't be offset by helping you once or twice. Hurry and get back to work!"
A few minutes later, Chu Xuan was chased out of the shop by Uncle Long with a smile, and he had a whole plucked rooster and a piece of pork belly in his hands.
When she passed by a pay phone, she called her mother.
But still no one answered.
If no one answers, then no one answers. Chu Xuan is not worried about her mother at all.
Because my biological mother lived well in my previous life.
I plan to go to the town entrance to wait for the carriage.
As luck would have it, I met Liu Dapeng again driving a tractor.
Without waiting for Chu Xuan to wave, the car automatically braked and made a gesture of invitation.
A minute later, Chu Xuan sat in the driver's seat, and Liu Dapeng stood at the connection between the truck bed and the tractor, holding the driver's seat with one hand and holding the big rooster and pork belly in the other hand.
This scene was seen by Feng Chunhua who came to the town.
"She...she can actually drive a tractor?"
Stunned with shock.
Chu Xuan also saw her, but without saying hello, he smiled contemptuously and drove away.
Feng Chunhua took a long time to react, muttering softly, "When did that damn girl learn to drive a tractor? That kid from the Liu family is so polite to her, could he be interested in her?"
I really wanted to spread this matter, but when I thought about the fact that Chu Zhi was not married yet and Chu Xuan had the upper hand, I had to give up.
About ten minutes later, the tractor stopped near the village.
Chu Xuan jumped down and almost sprained his ankle. He finally managed to stand steady.
He took the big rooster from Liu Dapeng and was not in a hurry to take the pork.
"Hold on."
Chu Xuan tore off a raw chicken leg with his bare hands and put it in Liu Dapeng's hand, "This will be used to offset the fare."
Liu Dapeng was so moved that he forgot to say thank you.
Chu Xuan took the pork from him, waved his hand, and left.
It wasn't until she walked away that Liu Dapeng realized he hadn't said thank you.
His family hasn't eaten chicken legs for more than half a year. The last time they ate chicken legs was when his uncle sent them as New Year's gifts during the Spring Festival...
Chu Xuan didn't know that she had gained Liu Dapeng's favor again.
After returning home, he personally chopped the big rooster into pieces and told Xiaofeng to make stewed chicken with potatoes and rice for lunch. The pork belly was very fatty and was boiled into oil residue.
And it was clearly stated that if we had to work overtime today, lunch would be provided.
Gao Meijuan, Miao Dacui, Qin Mahua and Fu Qing were fine, as they could eat a chicken every two or three months, but Niu Guafu, Liu Zhaodi, Hua Daling and others hadn't eaten one for half a year. When they heard Chu Xuan's words, they swallowed their saliva on the spot.
I can't help but sigh that the food is so good!
However, everyone was so busy working that they didn't notice that the big rooster was missing a leg.
Chu Xuan put the salt jar, fishing tools and wooden barrel into the backpack and went out.
After walking a few steps, he met Li Lin, Li Tong's son, who was 16 years old, running towards him hurriedly.
He collected smelly skinned fish, and Chu Xuan helped him recover the losses. Because of this, he admired Chu Xuan very much.
"Sister Xuan, my dad has collected over 1,000 kilograms of fresh, skinned fish and asked me to come over and ask if you can still take them."
Chu Xuan's family had already purchased 2,000 kilograms in the morning. Li Lin scratched his head a little embarrassedly, fearing that this would cause trouble to Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan smiled. "Collect. I'll have Aunt Niu go and get them right away. Tell your dad to take as many skinned fish as he can today and tomorrow. Only 2,000 kilograms the day after tomorrow, and no more the day after that. I'm planning to give everyone a day off."
Li Lin was about to say that he could deliver it, but then he thought about his thin arms and legs, and that he could only pull a few hundred pounds at a time. It would be better for him to do it than Aunt Niu.
"Okay, I'll go back first."
Chu Xuan returned home and gave Widow Niu some instructions before going out again.
Half an hour later, Chu Xuan arrived at the secret place where people went to the beach to catch seafood.
The tide has just receded, but many razor clam holes have been exposed.
Just as he was about to put down the backpack and sprinkle salt, he heard Mu Chenze's voice from behind him, "Dude, you're here just in time!"
Chu Xuan guessed he would come, so she wasn't surprised at all. She turned and looked at him, "Are you here to help or to supervise?"
Today he was wearing a silk long-sleeved shirt and trousers, white handmade cloth shoes, and his clothes fluttered in the wind. If he had a sword in his hand, Chu Xuan would have thought he was going to fly to the sky and become a god.
Mu Chenze had an alluring smile on his face. "This outfit isn't suitable for fishing. I'm here to supervise and show off. Don't I look good? Silk clothes will look good on you, too. When you lose weight to 150 pounds, I'll give you a silk skirt."
In fact, he was not trying to show off, but to stimulate Chu Xuan to continue exercising and lose weight.
Chu Xuan saw through his thoughts at a glance, but did not point it out.
She knew he was doing it for her own good.
"I'm waiting for you to give me a silk dress!"
"But you can't tell anyone about this, lest they misunderstand you."
"I'll keep it a secret."
After saying that, Chu Xuan concentrated on sprinkling salt on the entrance of the King Clam Cave. Mu Chenze had a pair of long rubber boots in his hand as if by magic. He put them on swiftly, rolled up his sleeves, and walked to the front of the King Clam Cave.
As long as the king clam comes out, he will catch it.
Chu Xuan joked, "Wearing such expensive clothes while going to the beach, how arrogant!"
"I'm not arrogant, I'm just into beauty. Unlike you, who wears coarse black clothes every day and earns so much money, but doesn't know how to dress up. Also, you're a girl, and it's fine if you had ear-length hair before, but why did you cut it into a man's hairstyle at the beginning of the month?"
These words successfully reminded Chu Xuan.
She had her hair cut short because of the heat. Because she was fat, she always wore black clothes, thinking that it would make her look a little thinner.
What's wrong with being fat? You have the right to dress however you want.
I'll go to the tailor shop in town tomorrow and order some fashionable and body-covering clothes.
"Thanks for the reminder."
As soon as he finished speaking, the King Clam that Chu Xuan was about to get was snatched away, but it wasn't Mu Chenze's hand...
