Chapter 99
"Are you just short of money?" Bai Cangze said with his hands behind his back, frowning as he looked at the two people hugging each other in front of him.
Ji Mingqing turned around and pulled out a piece of paper for Ji Lin, then protected her behind Yu Xi. Then, facing Bai Cangze, he said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's a little bit lacking. Didn't I tell you everything?"
Bai Cangze squatted down and sat in front of Ji Mingqing across the coffee table.
"This is a soul-nourishing pill. If used on an ordinary person, one pill can revive the dead and grant immortality."
"This is Asahi Maru. It can keep a person's mind clear. If used on an ordinary person, it can improve their mental abilities. There's no problem becoming a genius."
"This is Jade Snow Bone. The bones of the Jade Snow Bird are ground into powder and can be used..."
Ji Mingqing quickly stopped Bai Cangze's actions, "What are you doing? Why are you taking these things out?"
Ji Mingqing originally thought that what Bai Cangze took out was the gift from the fairyland that he had prepared for his mother, but after looking at it more carefully, he found that there were not only the things he had prepared, but also some of Bai Cangze's private collection.
"Aren't you short of money? These things here should be worth a fortune. Selling any one of them would bring you a lot of wealth. You can sell this Asahi Maru to someone who lived in the community before..."
"No, no, no, no!" Ji Mingqing said four "no"s in a row, "Hurry up and take all these things back. If you use them, won't it affect the operation of the small world?"
Bai Cangze sneered, "This little thing can't faze me."
How can you be so proud of this!
"First of all, I don't know anyone rich. Secondly, if this thing were to be sold, it would be a disaster!" Ji Ming coaxed Bai Cangze, "Please take it back. I'll find a way to make money. At worst, I'll just do magic tricks to make money."
Bai Cangze frowned, "You still don't want to go back."
The tone of this sentence was very firm, as if Ji Mingqing had already been sentenced to the crime of [not wanting to return to the fairyland].
Ji Mingqing sat back on the sofa and explained to Bai Cangze, "No, I do want to go back, but it will be a little later. But you can't stay in the fairyland for too long, right? That's why I asked you to go back first."
Ji Mingqing's words did not ease Bai Cangze's emotions. He used the good words to push the magic treasure on the table to himself and held his hand tightly.
"I want you to come back with me now."
Ji Mingqing could feel that Bai Cangze was really angry. He had known Bai Cangze for so long, but this was the first time he felt that Bai Cangze was really angry.
Ji Lin next to her had already held back her tears. She wanted to speak to ease the seriousness of the situation, but found that she couldn't open her mouth.
However, Ji Mingqing didn't feel the slightest bit of fear. He subconsciously shook Bai Cangze's hand and coaxed him softly, "We're going to inspect the Xieyue Coast soon, right? Xieyue Coast can't be left without you. The greater your ability, the greater your responsibility. You're so powerful, so you naturally have to be responsible for everyone in the Immortal Realm."
Bai Cangze held Ji Mingqing's hand tightly without saying a word, but the furniture beside him had begun to tremble slightly. Ji Mingqing looked at the shoe rack that was about to take off, and hurried to Bai Cangze's side and hugged him without thinking.
The room immediately fell silent, while Bai Cangze opened his eyes wide, his hands raised in the air, not knowing what to do.
"How about you wait until you've inspected the Xieyue Coast before coming back? You already know where my home is, so I definitely won't run away. Could you please help me check on the progress of the inn when you go back?"
Seeing Bai Cangze's emotions calm down, Ji Mingqing finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know where he got the courage from to be so bold as to hug Bai Cangze.
Fortunately, the result was good. Ji Mingqing looked at Bai Cangze with his head down, as if he was going through some psychological struggle.
"No, you must go back with me."
Ji Mingqing: "..."
The struggle failed.
"No, I can't go back with you now. If I go back, I will be miserable for the rest of my life. I can't stand owing people money, I can't sleep, and I can't practice well. No matter how many Qingxin Pills or Linghuan Flowers you give me, it won't help." Ji Mingqing sat down on the ground and stamped his feet anxiously, "Can't you just listen to me for once!"
Bai Cangze looked at Ji Mingqing indifferently and slowly uttered two words: "No!"
Ji Lin, who was watching from the side, secretly regretted it in her heart. If she had known earlier, she would have taken on more part-time jobs. She had thought that Ji Mingqing would be able to reduce the burden on the family after graduating from university and having a job, so she turned down two opportunities to earn extra money. She thought that with this time, she might as well go home early to cook for Ji Mingqing and take care of his health. Young people will definitely be very tired when they first enter the workplace.
Who could have imagined that such a thing would happen? Who could have imagined that there would be such a fantastic experience.
What's more, she couldn't even speak now.
"If I can't sell anything else, can't I sell this?" Bai Cangze took out a fairy stone, and then absorbed all the fairy energy in reality into his body. The fairy stone without fairy energy was just an ordinary glass bead.
"How much can this be worth? It's a bit like the marbles we played with as kids, the kind you get for fifty cents a handful."
Seeing Bai Cangze's lips pursed into a straight line again, Ji Mingqing immediately coaxed him, "How about we go find someone to take a look and see if this thing is worth money? If it is, then it's easy. After we pay the money, we can both return to the fairyland immediately."
"What if it's not valuable?" Bai Cangze raised his head and looked at Ji Mingqing. Seeing Bai Cangze's lost eyes, Ji Mingqing suddenly felt a sense of guilt in his heart.
"If it's not worth the money... I'll accompany you back to the Immortal Realm. After we've inspected the Xieyue Coast, we can come down together, okay?"
Bai Cangze seemed to confirm Jin Mingxing's plan, and Ji Mingqing immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's go, I know there's a pawnshop nearby. Let's go take a look and bring back two bowls of beef noodles."
After Ji Mingqing finished speaking, he looked back at Ji Lin, who was sitting on the sofa with tears still on her face, and asked, "Mom, do you want to add some spice to the beef noodles?"
Ji Lin lay motionless on the sofa. Seeing this, Bai Cangze restrained his arrogance, thought for a moment, walked up to Ji Lin, and stuffed the jade snow bone that he had wanted to sell into Ji Lin's hands.
"You can eat this directly. It's good for your body."
Ji Lin looked at Bai Cangze's stiff expression, nervously accepted the medicine bottle from Bai Cangze's hand, and said softly, "Thank you."
Bai Cangze finished speaking and pulled Ji Mingqing away without even turning back. After they left, Ji Mingqing asked curiously, "What did you stuff into my mother's mouth? What's it for?"
"It's just jade snow bone ground into powder. After your mother takes it, it will strengthen her bones and muscles. It will be easier for her to practice martial arts in the immortal world."
"I see." Ji Mingqing didn't expect Bai Cangze to be so considerate. As a son, he should be more considerate.
"I'll buy some beef noodles later and I'll pack her some chili peppers to bring back. She can choose whether she wants spicy or not."
Both of them agreed that magic could not be used in the human world, so it took a while to get to the pawnshop. Bai Cangze looked at the pawnshop sign and felt a little unhappy.
"Come in." Ji Mingqing pulled Bai Cangze towards the pawnshop. Inside, a slightly plump man wearing glasses was fiddling with something on the table. Seeing someone come in, he said nonchalantly, "Want to pawn something?"
"Pawn this." Ji Mingqing took out the immortal stone in his hand that had no immortal energy. "Boss, can you help me see how much this bead can be pawned for?"
After the man took the bead back, he carefully examined it with a magnifying glass. He glanced at Ji Mingqing, then lowered his head and sighed softly, "Young man, this thing is not worth much. It's just an ordinary glass bead. It's only good because it's crystal clear. I'll give you a hundred yuan at most."
"Ah..." Ji Ming felt a little disappointed after hearing the price. It was only a hundred yuan, how much higher could the price go? Even if it went up to a hundred and fifty yuan, he could only buy two more bowls of beef noodles.
"Then I won't sell it to you. Give it back to me." Ji Mingqing stretched out his hand to take the fairy stone back, but the boss immediately stuffed the bead into his palm and turned it around.
"Little brother, if you tell me where you found this bead, I'll give you another hundred."
"What do you want this for? There are no beads to pick up there. There is only this one, which I picked up casually on the street." Ji Mingqing reached out again to take the magic stone back, but the boss held on to the magic stone tightly.
Ji Mingqing was a little annoyed. This guy must be crazy. He wants to steal things worth a hundred yuan!
This was when Bai Cangze took action. He took a wrong step and his body passed through the wall and stepped into the counter. The next moment, he grabbed the boss's wrist and lifted him up.
"What are you doing!" the man screamed in fear. "Who are you? I'm going to call the police!"
Ji Mingqing wanted to stop Bai Cangze, but then he thought that Bai Cangze must have his reasons for doing anything. If the police were really called over, they could run away!
What's more, the clay man was still a little angry, "Who cares who he is? Even if the police come, we are right. You were the one who stole our things first!"
"Give it to me..." Bai Cangze exerted force with his right hand, but unexpectedly, the man turned into a guinea pig in front of Ji Mingqing.
Ji Mingqing: "..."
"You're just a rat demon, and you dare to act so presumptuous in front of him!" Ji Mingqing laughed, "Are you from the fairyland too?"
"What fairyland? It's just that I got a chance to become a demon by chance." Bai Cangze laughed, put the rat demon on the table, and then patted it lightly, and the demon immediately turned into a human form.
"Sorry, sorry, I really didn't recognize a great person." The little mouse demon immediately nodded and bowed to Bai Cangze.
Ji Mingqing found it interesting. He had not expected that in the world where he had lived for so many years, there would be such a fantastic scene.
"Are you actually a rat demon?" Ji Mingqing looked at him curiously, "Domesticated?"
"I'm not really a domesticated one. My owner threw me out onto the street a while ago. I ate some grass, and then I was able to transform into a human form."
"How many years have you been in human form? Do you have an ID card?"
"I've been in human form for twenty years now, and I don't even need an ID card."
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it cannot become a spirit. So is this little guinea pig illegal?
It’s none of his business whether he knows or not. He must have his own ways. He came here today just to sell something: “Tell me the truth, how much can you give me for this thing?” Ji Mingqing raised his eyes and signaled Bai Cangze to give the fairy stone in his hand to the boss again.
"This thing has too little spiritual energy in it, so I can only give you 100,000. However, if there is enough spiritual energy in it, I can ask my eldest brother to adjust the money. The more spiritual energy there is, the higher the price."
After the boss finished speaking, he immediately looked at Bai Cangze tremblingly, "I really didn't lie, this is really the market price. If you don't believe me, go out and ask. I really can't afford any more!"
Ji Mingqing was amused when he saw the boss gasping for breath after speaking such a long string of words. "One hundred thousand yuan isn't enough. Give him another spirit bead." Ji Mingqing gestured to Bai Cangze to give him something. Bai Cangze replied coldly, "I don't have a spirit bead."
Only then did Ji Mingqing remember that Bai Cangze was a lord. Just like an ordinary person would not carry a single cent of banknotes on him, Bai Cangze would not carry a spirit bead with him.
"Then give him a fairy stone, and we can finish this quickly and go back."
Bai Cangze casually threw out an unused fairy stone, and the boss immediately held it in his hand as if it were a treasure, sniffing it with intoxicated heart.
"Ten million! Will you sell it for ten million?" After the price was quoted, the little guinea pig couldn't help but change back to its original form and turned around on the table. Then, it became intoxicated and covered its entire body on this small fairy stone, and then closed its eyes in intoxication.
Ji Mingqing found him so interesting that he couldn't help but extend his finger over the counter and gently tap the chubby body of the guinea pig.
Seeing this, Bai Cangze immediately held Ji Mingqing's hand. Ji Mingqing looked at Bai Cangze in confusion. Bai Cangze asked, "He asked you if 10 million is enough?"
Ji Mingqing replied without hesitation: "Enough, enough, ten million is enough!"
It even seemed a bit too much! He thought that 100,000 yuan might be enough for his family.
"Then give me the money quickly."
Bai Cangze lifted the guinea pig from the immortal stone, put it aside, and then put the immortal stone away. "One hand pays the other hand delivers the goods. When will the money be in place?"
"Tomorrow! It will be there next year!" The short and fat guinea pig, now transformed into a human, patted his chest with confidence. "Tomorrow morning I will find a way to get the money, either in cash or by wire transfer."
"Cash." Ji Mingqing decided without thinking. It would be fine as long as he had as much stuff as possible for Bai Cangze.
After agreeing on a time, Ji Mingqing and Bai Cangze walked out of the pawnshop and turned to walk towards the beef noodle shop. After arriving at the beef noodle shop, Ji Mingqing luxuriously added two servings of beef to each meal and ordered a lot of side dishes.
"Why do I feel so unreal? I suddenly became a multi-millionaire. I never thought I would be so lucky." Ji Mingqing excitedly took out a pair of chopsticks and tapped them on the table excitedly.
"It's just an immortal stone. Don't you have a lot of immortal stones? If you exchange it for the money here, it's enough for you to live comfortably."
Ji Ming listened to Bai Cangze's bitter tone and said with a smile: "No matter how many immortal stones I have, I still need your consent before I can give them out. You see, I have nothing now. I have to rely entirely on our Aze."
Ji Mingqing was in a good mood, so he began to stroke Bai Cangze. "My mother will definitely be very happy. After we pay back all the money, we will go back to the fairyland together. By the way, after we go back, let my mother stay in the room we lived in before. I plan to sleep in the dormitory. But if the inn is built, I want to find a room there."
"Your mother might not be used to living alone in the courtyard. Just like when you first arrived in the fairyland, you must have needed company. So I don't recommend separating you from your mother."
Ji Mingqing raised an eyebrow, "How do you know I wasn't used to the New Territory when I first arrived?"
Bai Cangze's ears flushed. "Isn't this normal? I'm the Lord. I know everything about the Immortal Realm. When you first arrived in the Immortal Realm, you were already under my control."
Ji Mingqing smiled and patted Bai Cangze's hand, "Why are you so nervous? I didn't say I don't allow you to monitor me, but you're right. My mother just arrived in the fairyland and I can't be separated from her."
"You can go to Kun..."
"Why don't we build another house?"
The two spoke at the same time. Bai Cangze swallowed his words halfway through and said, "Alright, we can choose a location and build a larger palace."
Ji Mingqing shook his head. "What can I do with a bigger palace? I won't need it. It just gives my mother and I a place to live with a yard, a kitchen, and a storage room. If I find a fairy partner in the future, maybe we can have children." For some reason, after Ji Mingqing said this, the noble and arrogant face of Bai Cangze in the fairy world emerged in his mind.
He quickly shook his head to get rid of the image in his mind, and then saw Bai Cangze opposite him, clenching his fists tightly, and the table next to him was shaking slightly again.
Ji Mingqing saw that the situation was not good, but it was not easy to hug him outside, so he had to wrap his palm around Bai Cangze's fist and coax him softly: "What's wrong? Why are you unhappy again?"
"What about me?" Bai Cangze lowered his head and said a little aggrievedly, "Where should I live?"
It turned out that it was because of this. Ji Mingqing slapped his forehead and said, "My fault, my fault. I will definitely build you a big room. No matter how big you want, I will build it for you." Ji Mingqing deliberately lengthened the word "big" in an attempt to make Bai Cangze happy, but Bai Cangze looked even angrier.
Just when Ji Mingqing was racking his brains, the beef noodles he packed were ready. Seeing this, Ji Mingqing quickly picked up the beef noodles in one hand and held Bai Cangze's hand with the other, "Hurry home, the noodles will not taste good if they are soaked for too long."
Bai Cangze looked at Ji Mingqing's hand, raised his head where Ji Mingqing couldn't see, and felt faintly proud.
Ji Mingqing was completely unaware of this. After they hurried back home, they heard Ji Lin talking on the phone. After listening for a while, Ji Ming realized that Ji Lin was taking a private job for him.
After graduating from university, Ji Lin married Ji Mingqing's father and became a housewife. Later, after her divorce, she worked odd jobs while taking the accounting exam. After passing the accounting exam, she found a formal job, which made life better for mother and son.
However, they haven't saved much money over the years. First of all, the rent of a house near the school is a huge expense, and Ji Lin doesn't want to let Ji Mingqing down. He has everything that other children have. After Ji Mingqing went to college, he started working, and the money saved by the mother and son had to be used to pay off debts.
Ji Mingqing was reluctant to let Ji Lin take on too many private jobs, but in fact Ji Lin had been in contact with him privately. Now he urgently needed money to pay off his debts, so Ji Lin started to think about making extra money again.
After Ji Lin hung up the phone, he saw Ji Mingqing and Bai Cangze coming back, and pretended to be calm and said, "You two are back now. Eat less beef noodles. Mom will make fried milk for you tonight."
"I'm not full right now, so no matter how much you cook, I can eat it." Ji Mingqing patted his stomach, then said to Ji Lin, "Mom, you don't have to go out to do private work. If you have the energy, go to the fairyland and help me. I'm so worried."
"There is no conflict between Mom making extra money and going to the fairyland to help you. The more extra money Mom makes, the sooner she will go to the fairyland to help you. Just don't worry about it." Ji Lin sat opposite Ji Mingqing and nodded slightly to Bai Cangze, then opened the lid and started eating beef noodles.
The mother and son had similar tastes. Ji Mingqing said as they ate, "Mom, I've already solved the money problem. How much do you owe? Is 100,000 enough to pay it back?"
"Did you get 100,000 yuan?" Ji Lin thought Ji Mingqing was joking and patted his head. "Money is not that easy to make. If you say 100,000, it's 100,000. Besides, you don't have a job right now, so I told you to go back to the fairyland with Aze first, and come pick me up in a couple of days. I'll just treat it as if you're studying out of town."
"You can underestimate me, but you can't underestimate him." Ji Mingqing pointed at Bai Cangze next to him and told Ji Lin everything that had just happened.
Ji Lin was surprised. "Ten million! We don't need that much money!"
"If we don't need it, just donate it." Ji Mingqing said without thinking, while eating silently, "Find a few charity associations and donate some of them, or even orphanages and anti-domestic violence associations. We can't use the money anyway, so we might as well donate it all."
"Aren't we going to come back in the future?" Ji Lin was a little excited when she heard that she could pay back the money, but then she thought that after paying back the money, she would have to completely leave this land where she had lived for more than 40 years.
And this isn't like changing cities for work or going abroad. She's leaving completely and may never come back.
"If you want to come back, I can accompany you. We have plenty of time, thousands of years, and you can come back anytime you want." After Ji Mingqing finished speaking, he nudged Bai Cangze's arm and said, "Am I right?"
Bai Cangze was frowning as he ate the beef noodles in his bowl with chopsticks. He looked up helplessly at Ji Lin and assured her, "You can come back anytime you want."
After hearing Bai Cangze's assurance, Ji Lin relaxed a lot, but still sighed and said, "Mom has a lot of friends here. I may never see them again after I reach the fairyland. Can you two give me a few days to get together with them? I'll leave after that."
Ji Mingqing glanced at Bai Cangze, who nodded and said, "Of course, there are still five days until the inspection day of Xieyue Coast."
"Five days..." Ji Lin said sadly, "Five days is enough. Thank you, Xiaobai."
Ji Ming felt his heart tighten when he heard his mother address Bai Cangze, but he heaved a sigh of relief when he realized that Bai Cangze's mood hadn't changed at all.
"Mom, when we return to the fairyland, we have to call him Lord like everyone else, and we can't call him Xiaobai anymore."
Ji Lin knew she had spoken out of turn, so she quickly slapped her lips lightly, then apologized to Bai Cangze, "I'm sorry, my Lord. I will pay more attention next time."
After Ji Lin finished speaking, Ji Mingqingxiu's Bai Cangze gathered a resentful aura. He turned around and looked at Bai Cangze: "What's wrong with you?"
"Don't call me Lord." Bai Cangze held the chopsticks tightly, and the next second the chopsticks broke into two with a "crack".
"Okay, Aze, but I still have to call you Lord in front of outsiders, otherwise it seems that I am too disrespectful."
"In front of outsiders, you can call me Aze, call me Xiaobai, call me Bai Cangze. You can call me Xiaobai or anything else, just don't call me Lord." Bai Cangze rarely spoke such a long string of words, and Ji Ming was a little dazed listening.
"Do you understand?" Bai Cangze lowered his head, staring straight at Ji Mingqing, "You don't need to be like everyone else."
Ji Mingqing moved his Adam's apple nervously, "I...I know."
Bai Cangze tilted his head slightly, "What should you call me now?"
"Aze?" Ji Mingqing said tentatively. Among the several options Bai Cangze gave him, Aze was the most convincing and the most suitable.
Hearing that Ji Mingqing had finally come up to Bai Cangze, he nodded with satisfaction, then he casually hooked his fingers, and another pair of chopsticks fell into his hand.
"Keep eating. The beef powder won't taste good if it's been soaked for too long."
Ji Mingqing: "..." Using my spear to attack your shield, this is!
The next morning, Ji Mingqing and Bai Cangze arrived at the pawnshop as agreed. After he pushed open the door and walked into the pawnshop, he saw two people, one tall and one short, standing at the door.
Ji Mingqing and Bai Cangze, who arrived on time, were immediately overjoyed. They bowed deeply to the two and shouted, "Greetings, Seniors!"
Ji Mingqing quickly took a step back and pushed Bai Cangze in front of him: "He is the senior, he is the senior!"
Bai Cangze placed his hands on Ji Mingqing's waist and pushed him behind him. "Have you brought the money?"
"I brought it. I brought it."
As the two men retreated, Ji Mingqing saw that there were more than twenty suitcases of different sizes behind them.
"The 10 million banknotes in cash are all here." The two men nodded and bowed, "I'm sure there's nothing missing. If there's anything missing, you can come and find us."
Bai Cangze knew with his spiritual sense that the two people were not lying. Not only that, he also saw a small group of guinea pigs at the back door, lying on the window and looking at this side excitedly.
Bai Cangze chuckled and not only threw a fairy stone to the man, but also gave him two fairy beads that he had no use for.
"Just consider it a welcome gift for the children." After saying that, he waved his hand, and the more than 20 suitcases disappeared on the spot.
The two men in front of him were overjoyed. After taking the things in their hands, they immediately wanted to raise their heads to express their gratitude, but Bai Cangze and Ji Mingqing were no longer in front of them.
Bai Cangze pulled Ji Mingqing's arm and returned home, then casually threw the largest suitcase to Ji Lin and took Ji Mingqing into the room.
"Do you have something to say to me?" Ji Mingqing was excited because he had obtained 10 million. He wanted to quickly answer Bai Cangze's question and then go out for a shopping spree!
No matter how good the fairyland is, there are some things he doesn’t have, so he wants to buy some to take back!
"Do you like children?" Bai Cangze suddenly thought of this question after seeing the litter of guinea pigs today.
Ji Mingqing used to run a children's playground and gave gifts to children. Everyone said that Ji Mingqing was very kind to children, and many children liked him very much.
Bai Cangze didn't care about it before, but today he suddenly had an idea and felt that Ji Mingqing must want his own child.
Seeing that Ji Mingqing didn't answer, Bai Cangze repeated: "Do you like children?"
Ji Mingqing was stunned by Bai Cangze's question. He hesitated for a moment, then answered tentatively: "I like... don't I like it?"
Although Ji Mingqing was used to Bai Cangze's occasional tantrums, every time, he had no idea what Bai Cangze was thinking and had no idea at all.
"Why do you suddenly think of asking this question?" Ji Mingqing looked at Bai Cangze and pushed Bai Cangze's shoulder, but failed to move.
"Nothing, I just suddenly wanted to ask." Bai Cangze sat up and stopped forcing Ji Mingqing.
Ji Mingqing thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't like children, and I don't want to have my own children. If my mother wants me to have a child, I'll raise a little fairy beast for her to distract her."
After hearing Ji Mingqing's words, Bai Cangze's mood suddenly brightened. "The pawnshop owner hid a litter of guinea pigs by the back door. They must be his children. I thought you might like children."
"I don't like children, and I don't think I'd be a good father." Ji Mingqing finished speaking, then shook Bai Cangze's arm and said angrily, "Why didn't you tell me there was a litter of guinea pigs back then? If I had known, I would have gone to play with them. Don't they all have those little black, beady eyes?"
Bai Cangze nodded and said expressionlessly, "If you like, I can help you capture his child and bring him to the fairyland."
Ji Mingqing immediately laughed out loud, "Why are you capturing someone else's child? It's not like there aren't any fairy beasts in the fairy world. I just like furry little animals, especially cubs. Cub-aged animals are the cutest."
"Did you keep me because I was cute?"
"Of course." Ji Mingqing said without hesitation, "I originally wanted to raise you bigger, but I found out that you didn't need me to raise you at all, you were already that big." Ji Mingqing smiled and looked into Bai Cangze's eyes, "I always feel that it's not me who is raising you, but you who are raising me."
Bai Cangze nodded reservedly, "It's good that you know."
Ji Mingqing was amused by Bai Cangze's attitude. He grabbed Bai Cangze's clothes and rushed forward, "Hand over all the ten million! I've never seen so much money!"
Bai Cangze hooked his finger, and more than twenty boxes appeared in front of the two of them, stacked up and filling the entire floor of the room.
Ji Mingqing was somewhat at a loss. He looked around and grabbed Bai Cangze's hand, sat back on the bed, and yelled "Mom!!"
Ji Lin had been waiting for the word "Mom" for too long. She had just opened a 20-inch box and was almost blinded by the money inside.
She wanted to go into the house and ask Ji Mingqing and Bai Cangze what was going on, but when she recalled Bai Cangze's gloomy face just before he came in, she was a little afraid to speak. She leaned forward and listened at the door, but heard nothing.
Fortunately, the word "Mom" finally came, and Ji Lin pressed the doorknob of Ji Mingqing's door without hesitation. As a result, after she opened the door, she saw several boxes in front of her, stacked as high as her, and were about to fall apart.
Ji Lin subconsciously took a step back, then searched for Ji Mingqing's face through the gap in the box, "Baby, don't tell me there's only money in here."
Ji Mingqing also found a gap and started talking to Ji Lin outside the door. "Yes, I exchanged things from the fairy world for 10 million yesterday. Didn't I tell you? It's all cash in here. These boxes were given to us by him. It's just right for us to pack our things."
Ji Lin was a little dazed. "Okay, after Mom pays off her foreign debt, I'll help you deal with the money. First, take out the money you need and buy whatever you want."
Ji Mingqing nodded and said okay, then took out the smallest box. After opening it, he thought for a while and took out two stacks, then shook his head and put one stack back.
"Ten thousand yuan is enough." Ji Mingqing waved the hundred-yuan bill in his hand towards Bai Cangze, "I've never had so much money before."
"When you return to the fairyland, you will have much more money than this." Bai Cangze said as he moved all the boxes to the living room, clearing a way for Ji Mingqing to go out.
Then he put away the smallest suitcase and said, "Please buy me some new things that are not available in the fairy world. I also want to see what good things there are."
After listening to Bai Cangze's words, Ji Ming's eyes lit up immediately, "Come on, I'll take you to buy a game console!"
Ji Mingqing and Ji Lin acted separately. Ji Mingqing took Bai Cangze and ran directly to the mall, while Ji Lin began to contact friends to repay the money.
In the evening, Ji Lin returned home and collapsed on the sofa waiting for Ji Mingqing to come back. This year, all these debts have been weighing on him alone. Later, when Ji Mingqing grew up, he began to share some of the burden silently, but her pressure did not decrease, but became greater.
She wanted her children to grow up freely, but they had to put on the shackles of the family. However, after today, the constraints of their family disappeared, and the mountain on her shoulders was finally removed. At this moment, she finally felt what it meant to be debt-free.
Not long after, Ji Mingqing came back.
Ji Mingqing took Bai Cangze to the mall and went on a shopping spree. He bought electronic products that were not available in the fairy world, and even bought a small solar generator.
This time, Ji Mingqing did not let Bai Cangze pack up all the things, but walked back home with the bags himself. Ji Mingqing felt that this might be the joy of a good harvest.
He could now afford things that he couldn't afford before and could play things that he couldn't play online.
However, even though he bought a lot of things, he didn't spend much money. Some of the things Ji Mingqing bought were of no use to him. He originally wanted to buy a few clothes for Bai Cangze, but Ji Mingqing pointed and told Bai Cangze that he felt this one was not suitable for him. As a result, Bai Cangze changed his white T-shirt into the clothes he had just pointed out in front of everyone.
Ji Mingqing was so frightened that he quickly pulled Bai Cangze away. However, before he could blame Bai Cangze, Bai Cangze said in shame and anger, "How dare the people here be so bold as to stare at you so directly?"
After listening to Bai Cangze's words, Ji Ming realized that it was no wonder that Bai Cangze acted like that just now. It turned out that he was unhappy.
"It's great that society is so open now. I think when you return, you can ask the people in the immortal world to learn from our social customs. Openness, freedom and tolerance are the best."
"And do you know why I bought this?" Ji Mingqing shook the bag in his hand, which contained a mobile phone and a game console.
"We can study the functions here after we go back, and then you can add it to your fairy ring." Ji Mingqing said, looking back at Bai Cangze from time to time, "We can't come here in vain, we must bring some good things back."
Bai Cangze smiled after hearing Ji Mingqing's words, "Even if it's useless, you can buy it if you want."
"Then I won't be polite." Ji Mingqing pulled Bai Cangze to the famous fast food fried chicken restaurant.
Ten minutes later, even Bai Cangze's hands were full of bags filled with various kinds of fried chicken.
"This is someone's secret seasoning. You won't be able to eat it when you return to the fairyland." Ji Mingqing said with some regret.
"Let's go, my mom loves to eat too, I'm going to eat a lot at home today!"
Sure enough, Ji Lin's eyes lit up when she saw the fried chicken in Ji Mingqing's hand. "Are we leaving in five days?" Ji Lin asked while eating fried chicken.
"To be exact, there are still four days left, so Mom, eat whatever you want quickly."
"It's okay. Mom bought a lot of seasonings online, enough to last for decades. Xiaobai, you can bring them over for your aunt." After a few days of getting along, Ji Lin also discovered that Bai Cangze was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. No matter what they asked for, Bai Cangze would agree, so there was no barrier between them now.
"Got it." Bai Cangze lowered his head and tasted the exclusive fried chicken that Ji Mingqing mentioned. He thought the taste was indeed good, but the bubbly drink was still better. It was sweet and made him feel good after drinking it.
Five days later, the day to leave finally arrived. Ji Mingqing and Ji Lin packed all their belongings into the twenty or so boxes and contacted the landlord early, saying they would check out today. The reason they gave was that their child had found a job in another place and they had to move. The landlord felt a little regretful because it was not easy to find such a tenant.
Ji Mingqing and Ji Lin stood at the door, looking at the house where they had lived for several years, feeling reluctant to leave, but what they were even more reluctant to leave was the hometown where they had lived for decades.
Before leaving, Ji Lin wiped away her tears, touched the sofa and windowsill reluctantly, then sighed softly and said, "Okay, let's go now."
Bai Cangze waved his hand and the familiar door appeared in front of them again. Ji Mingqing took Ji Lin's hand, gave her a firm look, and then led him to the door.
Bai Cangze followed closely behind. Ji Mingqing held Ji Lin's hand, and after crossing the door, he finally felt the vigorous fairy energy.
I miss him a little after not seeing him for a few days.
Fairyland, I'm back!
