“Since we’re roommates, I’ve decided to give you a friendly price,” Jiang Mian held up one finger, “I’ll just say it’s 100 yuan each!”
He Yubai almost laughed: "Just because I have a lot of money doesn't mean I'm stupid."
He picked up a pomelo: "This isn't even as big as my hand, and you're selling it to me for a hundred yuan?"
"Superficial! You're just being superficial, you know that!"
Jiang Mian argued forcefully: "What's the use of looking at the outside? You have to taste the flesh inside. It's incredibly sweet! It's definitely worth the price!"
"Is that so?"
Jiang Mian nodded seriously.
"Then why do you have a sign here that says 3.5 yuan per jin?"
He Yubai pointed to the piece of cardboard with the price written on it in marker.
Jiang Mian showed no embarrassment at being exposed. Instead, she threw away the cardboard without saying a word, muttering in a fake tone, "I wonder which unlucky person put this sign here. It almost made me lose money."
He Yubai found it amusing: "Little lamb, do you know what you're doing right now?"
"uh-huh?"
"The big bad wolf who wanted to kidnap and eat Little Red Riding Hood."
"I quite like this metaphor."
Its main selling point is its thick skin.
Seeing Jiang Mian's sly smile, He Yubai shook his head with amusement, then took out his phone and readily scanned the code to pay.
First, look at the amount.
3000 yuan!
Goodness!
How many pomelos would he have to sell to make that money back?
As expected, money is meant for ordinary people, and Jiang Mian, being an ordinary person, is particularly happy at this moment.
Even his expression turned obsequious: "Young Master He, just give the order, and I'll make sure you're satisfied as long as it's within my power!"
"real?"
"More real than real gold and silver!"
"Then bring Jiang Wan to me."
"Damn! Am I the kind of person who would betray others (or myself) for money!?"
"You are, and I can add another zero after that."
"Then let me pack the pomelos for you first."
He was almost succumbing to the tyranny of money, so it was best to quickly change the subject!
Knowing that he wanted to avoid the situation, He Yubai didn't insist anymore and simply said, "There's no rush to pretend to be a pomelo. This is my first time here, so why don't you show me around first?"
"Being a tour guide? I'm good at that!"
Jiang Mian was enthusiastic as long as it wasn't about Jiang Wan.
[PS: First update. Everyone get some rest. The company is incredibly busy at the end of the year, and I'm working so much overtime that I haven't had time to write anything...]
