As the school bell rang, the homeroom teacher stood on the podium and gave the students their final words of advice.
"Alright, have you all remembered your homework? Line up, don't push or fight, and leave the school in an orderly manner!"
Okay~
The students answered in unison in a loud voice.
The sound was deafening.
The homeroom teacher covered her ears with a ferocious expression; her voice was really loud!
Chen Feng, Hu Jiayi, and others gathered at the school gate.
Because they had called home in advance, no one came to pick them up at the school gate at this time.
Seven or eight children huddled together like thieves, whispering and discussing their route.
"It's only 4:40. My uncle said that Boss Lin doesn't set up his stall until 6:00. Isn't that a bit early?"
Huang Jiaojiao took out her phone from the fold of the book and then said.
"Let's go to the convenience store to exchange money first, because the big brother can't use the phone watch there."
Since there was no rush, Chen Feng decided to go exchange money first.
Otherwise, I'd have to borrow from classmates, which would be a real hassle.
"Huang Jiaojiao, you actually brought your cell phone to school. Be careful the teacher finds out and confiscates it and calls your parents."
"It's okay. I turn off my phone when I enter the school gate and only turn it on when I come out. There are chat records between me and my uncle on my phone. I'm afraid I might go to the wrong place and I can send a message to my uncle. He's a fan of Boss Lin and knows the situation best."
Ten-year-old Huang Jiaojiao has a very clear logic. When organizing activities with her classmates, she takes into account all possible unexpected situations.
"That's good. Let's go to the supermarket first."
......
It was right when school let out.
Cheng Guangpeng's family's small supermarket is extremely popular with elementary school students.
As a result, as soon as he graduated, his parents hired him to work at a supermarket for a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan.
My daily work involves not only being a cashier, but also a stock clerk, cleaning, and taking care of children.
"Young boss, young boss, can I exchange some money?"
Chen Feng often came to exchange money and became familiar with Cheng Guangpeng. As soon as she entered the supermarket, she would go to the front desk to find him.
Cheng Guangpeng raised an eyebrow and gave him a knowing look.
"Handsome guy, stunner, is it okay?"
"That's definitely possible. How much do you want to exchange?"
Chen Feng had 500 yuan in his account. He originally only had 200 yuan, but when he went home at noon, his mother knew he had gone to a classmate's house to play, so she gave him another 300 yuan. She didn't know if fried fish was expensive, so she gave him all of it at once.
"Five hundred? What do you need so much money for?"
Cheng Guangpeng usually spends money on these children in small amounts, usually tens of yuan at a time, because some children want to buy food or toys from roadside stalls near the school gate, but they can't scan their smartwatches there, so many students like to come and exchange money.
But this is the first time I've ever exchanged such a large sum.
He was a little hesitant to replace it.
"We're going to buy fried fish from the older brother who sells candied hawthorns."
Chen Feng answered without any guile, and looked particularly happy.
Cheng Guangpeng: !!!
The older brother who sells candied hawthorn berries?
Is it the one who sells bitter melon and candied hawthorn at the school gate?
Cheng Guangpeng hadn't seen the guy selling candied hawthorns at the school gate for a long time.
Putting everything else aside, that guy really had a lot of different kinds of candied hawthorns.
I haven't had this in ages; turns out they went to sell fried fish.
You know quite a lot.
To be honest, Cheng Guangpeng became somewhat interested in candied hawthorns after not having eaten them for so long.
"Where are you? Are you all going together?"
"At the Nanbin Farmers Market, yes, we arranged to go together."
“It’s too dangerous for you kids to go out like this. How about this, I’ll go with you.”
Cheng Guangpeng patted his chest, looking righteous and awe-inspiring.
After quickly exchanging money for the elementary school students, he handed the cash register to his dear mother and then set off with Chen Feng and the others.
"Little boss, would you like to try the candied hawthorns that the older brother sells?"
A group of children didn't want to take a taxi and split up, so Cheng Guangpeng, as an adult, checked the map and bus routes, and led the group of children onto the bus.
We really can't do without him!
At dismissal time, not only them, but the whole busload of elementary school students chattered incessantly as soon as they got on the bus.
Cheng Guangpeng felt like he was surrounded by a flock of ducks, and he had to keep answering their questions, which was incredibly frustrating.
I suddenly realized I had acted impulsively.
How could I have followed the candied hawthorn vendor to make fried fish just out of curiosity?
It's quite far from Nanbin Farmers Market, and you have to transfer buses in between. By the time you get there, it'll be past 5 p.m.
In an instant, Cheng Guangpeng felt as if he had become an adult leading a group of children on a spring outing.
No, it's summer vacation, it's summer now.
......
Royal Capital - Villa No. 3
When it was almost time, Lin Zhou loaded the prepared ingredients onto the tricycle.
Today, in addition to fermented fish, smoked fish, and fried small fish, he also prepared fish ball soup.
Last night, Pan Yuan caught quite a few fish. Lin Zhou couldn't bear to see him release the big fish he caught, so he asked him if he wanted some fish ball soup. The fresh fish meat made into fish balls was delicious.
Upon hearing that he could eat fish balls, Pan Yuan became even more enthusiastic about fishing.
Lin Zhou also fished all night, and then went to the market in the early morning to buy two buckets of small fish.
The fish stall owner even asked him what time he set up his stall, saying that he hadn't seen him at the entrance of the market yesterday after he finished selling his fish.
Lin Zhou immediately told him that he would set up his stall at six o'clock in the afternoon, fearing that the boss would misunderstand him.
Everything is ready, time to set up the stall.
After watching Lin Zhou leave from the doorway, the housekeepers turned around and went back into the villa to pack their things and prepare to go home.
At this moment, on the open space of the sidewalk at the entrance of Nanbin Vegetable Market, there were not only vendors selling vegetables, but also regular customers waiting for Lin Zhou.
Compared to last night when only a portion of the people were contacted, today all two hundred-plus people in the group know the news.
Aside from those who were still at work or too busy to come, there were so many people who came that they completely surrounded the place where Lin Zhou had set up his stall yesterday.
With so many people gathered at the entrance of the market, the street became increasingly crowded.
Cheng Guangpeng led a group of primary school students off the bus and found the entrance to the vegetable market by referring to the map.
"There are a lot of people here, so hold hands and don't wander off."
Seeing so many people at the market in the evening, Cheng Guangpeng kept a close eye on the children.
Everyone was looking around for Lin Zhou.
It wasn't even six o'clock yet, so naturally we couldn't find it.
"It's not six o'clock yet, have you not set up your stall yet?"
On the way here, on the bus, Cheng Guangpeng and the other children were given a lecture on the story of Boss Lin by Huang Jiaojiao.
She heard all of this from her uncle.
Standing at the entrance of the market, everyone felt like they were waiting for their idol to arrive, and they were all incredibly excited.
Cheng Guangpeng blended in seamlessly among a group of elementary school students.
I glanced at the time; it was only 5:30, and there was still half an hour until 6:00.
"That should be true. My uncle said that Boss Lin is a punctual person. He always arrives at the appointed time on time."
Huang Jiaojiao, knowing perfectly well, put her hands in her pockets and said.
As the person who knows Mr. Lin best among everyone present, she has a lot to say and acts like a big sister, exuding the aura of a powerful figure.
