noon.

A private room in a restaurant in Jinling.

Qian Sanbao met his blind date Li Xiaoyu. The moment he saw Li Xiaoyu, he felt his eyes brighten.

Li Xiaoyu was wearing a dark blue fitted dress that was slightly knee-length, highlighting her slender figure. The neckline of the dress was decorated with delicate lace, exuding a romantic atmosphere. The waistline design of the dress was simple and generous, outlining her curves and showing her elegance and confidence.

A pair of black high heels matched the skirt, with the uppers decorated with small diamonds, which sparkled and added a lot of color to her look. The high heels can not only lengthen her figure, but also increase her aura and confidence.

Her long hair was scattered on her shoulders, and the slightly curly hair tips swayed gently as she walked, exuding a faint fragrance. She chose a very simple hair accessory, pinning a bunch of bright flowers behind her ears, embellishing her hairline, making her look fresh and lovely.

Her makeup was simple and natural, highlighting the radiance of her skin and the brightness of her eyes. She wore light pink lip makeup and smiled slightly, making people feel close and warm.

A simple small handbag is also convenient and decent. A pair of small earrings is simple and exquisite, highlighting her taste and ability to control details.

The overall look is both fashionable and dignified, which highlights her elegance and charm, and shows her dedication and confidence in herself.

To be honest, when it comes to dressing, he is far better than his ex-wife.

Just one look and Qian Sanbao's heartbeat quickened.

The two greeted each other and exchanged a few pleasantries before sitting down and ordering food.

The conversation between the two officially began only after the waiter left the box.

Before they met, the two learned detailed information about each other from Master Jiang, so it was easy for them to start a conversation by starting with their interests and hobbies.

By the time the waiter started serving the food, the two had gotten over the strange feeling they had when they first met.

While eating, the topic between the two people gradually deepened.

"Brother Qian, excuse me for asking, what was the reason for your divorce from your ex-wife?" Li Xiaoyu asked this question first. She felt that if she understood the reason for the other party's divorce, she would be able to tell what his attitude towards marriage was.

Qian Sanbao swallowed the food in his mouth, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and then said: "When I met my ex-wife, she was beautiful, well-educated, and fell in love with me at first sight. At that time, I didn't think much about it and thought it was okay to marry such a wife.

So, we got married not long after we spent together.

In the end, everything I saw was fake. The pretty face was the result of plastic surgery, the academic qualifications were forged, and even the love at first sight for me was fake. "

Li Xiaoyu didn't expect this to be the reason, and couldn't help but say, "This is considered marriage fraud, and he can be held criminally responsible."

In a marriage relationship, if one party deliberately conceals marital circumstances that are unfavorable to the other party, such as debt disputes, family situation, marital history, physical defects or illnesses, etc., it is considered marriage fraud.

Qian Sanbao sighed, "I can only blame myself for not keeping my eyes open and being fooled by her. But she is still my son's biological mother after all. It's enough to make her leave the house with nothing."

Li Xiaoyu nodded secretly. It was a good thing for a man to be more generous. She did not ask about this matter any further, but said: "I am luckier than you. My ex-husband and I divorced peacefully because of differences in interests and values."

As they ate and talked, they discovered that their values ​​were completely consistent. Naturally, they got along better and better, and the topic continued to deepen.

The meal lasted until around three in the afternoon. During these two or three hours, both of them left a very good impression on each other.

At this rate of progress, I believe it won't be long before the two of them are in a romantic relationship, and then talking about marriage will be a natural thing.

…

After gaining his mother's support, Ke Baoqiang and Officer Xia contacted Master Jiang and asked Master Jiang to take action and discuss the bride price.

Jiang Feng didn't waste any time and called Ke Changqun immediately.

When the call was connected, Ke Changqun greeted politely, "Hello, Master Jiang."

Jiang Feng also greeted him: "Hello, Mr. Ke."

After a few polite words, Jiang Feng explained his purpose: "Mr. Ke, I called you this time because I want to talk to you about your son's marriage to Officer Xia, and about the betrothal gift."

Ke Changqun said generously: "We are all family. Please rest assured, Xia family, regarding the betrothal gift. As long as my Ke family can afford it, there will be absolutely no objection."

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Mr. Ke is straightforward, so I will tell you about the Xia family's requirements."

Ke Changqun said: "Well, Master Jiang, you say."

Jiang Feng said, "Boss Ke, the Xia family wants you two to give 20% of your respective group shares to the two newcomers, and give a lucky amount of cash as a token of appreciation. What do you think?"

Ke Changqun was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that the Xia family would actually make such a request. Although he spoke generously, it involved group shares worth more than one billion yuan, which could not be transferred easily.

He couldn't help but ask: "Master Jiang, are these shares transferred before or after the marriage?"

Jiang Feng said: "Of course it is transferred before marriage, but don't worry, Mr. Ke, I am not asking you to transfer the group's shares to Officer Xia, but to transfer them to your son. The same is true for the Xia family's group shares, which are transferred to Officer Xia.

Therefore, even if it is transferred before marriage, there is no need to worry about anything."

Ke Changqun breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. If the shares were transferred to his son, there would be no risk.

Although he was used to being in power and did not want to transfer the group's shares to his son so early, plans could not keep up with changes. If the transfer of 20% of the shares could allow the daughter of the Xia family to marry into their Ke family, it would be worth it.

Thinking of this, Ke Changqun said readily: "That's no problem."

Then, the two talked about the issue of cash gift.

Although the Xia family meant to just give it as a token of their appreciation, Ke Changqun had no intention of fooling around. He proposed giving 1,000,001 yuan, meaning one in a million.

As for other gifts, they were not within the scope of their discussion.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Feng couldn't help but sigh secretly that it felt okay to deal with Mr. Ke, but it was a pity that his hobby was so disgusting.

After discussing with Ke Changqun, Jiang Feng called Officer Xia again and told her the results of the discussion.

He basically doesn't need to intervene in the subsequent developments.

…

With the development of the times, the improvement of people's living standards, and people's increasingly wild imaginations, many strange professions have been born in the world. These professions are so bizarre that they will make you gasp, and fart smeller is one of them.

As the name suggests, a fart smeller is someone who smells other people's farts. He or she mainly judges the patient's physical condition by smelling the patient's farts.

Don’t underestimate this profession. The threshold to becoming a fart smeller is quite high!

The admission requirements are that candidates must be between 18 and 45 years old, must not smoke or drink, must not wear makeup, must not have rhinitis, and must not even wear leather shoes that have just been polished.

There are also conditions such as no disease in the olfactory organs and passing the olfactory test. Applicants must undergo special training to ensure that they can distinguish five single gases: floral scent, sweat odor, sweet rice crust odor, ripe fruit scent and feces odor before they can take up the job.

The entry threshold is high, so the income is naturally considerable. It is easy to earn 20,000 or 30,000 yuan a month.

Qi Jun is a genuine fart smeller. Qi Jun, 28 years old this year, has been engaged in the profession of fart smeller for four or five years.

From feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit at the beginning to smelling farts as if they were air now, for Qi Jun, who has no special fetishes, what kind of mental journey he has gone through is only known to himself.

Qi Jun was born in a remote rural area in Guizhou Province. His family mainly made a living by farming. His parents worked in the fields and made a living by growing grain and vegetables. However, due to factors such as weather and natural disasters, their income was unstable and the family's financial situation was relatively difficult.

He is the eldest son in the family, with two younger brothers and a younger sister.

Because his family was relatively poor, Qi Jun lived a life of lack of food and clothing when he was a child.

The living conditions were also poor, with the family crowded into a rural mud house lacking modern appliances and furniture.

Because the educational resources in the village are poor and the villagers do not attach importance to education, unlike those families in the city who have the conditions, parents accompany their children throughout their studies and keep track of their children's learning progress at all times.

The villagers just let their children's education take its own course. If they can study, they can study. If they can't, they can come back to help with farm work or go out to work to earn money. No parent will help their children with homework.

In such an environment, Qi Jun's village has never had a college student, and high school graduation is the cultural ceiling of the village.

Like most people in the village, Qi Jun packed his bags and went south to Guangdong to work with his fellow villagers after completing nine years of compulsory education.

However, due to their low educational level, people like Qi Jun simply cannot find a decent job. They basically do hard labor at the low level, and their income is not high.

After working so hard for a few years, I have only slightly alleviated the burden on my family. There is still a long way to go if I want to get out of poverty.

By chance, Qi Jun learned that there was a strange profession called fart smeller in this world. Although this profession sounded disgusting, compared with the horror of poverty, smelling other people's farts was nothing.

It is no exaggeration to say that if the reward is enough, there will be a lot of people willing to sign up to lick other people's feet or even eat shit.

Qi Jun was attracted by the high income of this unique profession, so he tried every means to learn about this profession and thought about how to become a professional fart smeller.

Hard work pays off. With Qi Jun's efforts, he finally became a professional fart smeller at the age of 24.

In the four years since he became a fart smeller, the "high" income of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan per month has completely changed the fate of his family.

Now, two years ago, a beautiful house was built in his hometown, which was ranked first in the whole village. He also arranged careers for his two younger brothers. With his support and encouragement, his younger sister became the first college student in the village.

Qi Jun became a celebrity in the village overnight.

However, because this profession is too weird, Qi Jun still dares not tell his family until now. He only said that when he was working outside, he met a boss who valued him, and now he is working for the boss.

His parents and younger brothers and sisters naturally believed what he said. Now the whole village knows that he is following a big boss outside and earns tens of thousands of yuan a month.

He has a lot of face.

However, this kind of thing can be concealed for a while but not forever. Qi Jun is now worried that his profession will be exposed and he will be socially ruined in the village.

Especially during this period, parents are urging us to get married.

Because their village still continues the previous marriage tradition, that is, if there are many brothers and sisters in the family, they must get married one by one from the oldest to the youngest. As the eldest in the family, if he does not get married, then his two younger brothers and sister cannot get married.

Not to mention that his younger sister is still in school, the key point is his two younger brothers, both of whom are young men in their twenties. Moreover, they entered society after completing nine years of compulsory education and should have gotten married and had children long ago.

In the past few years, our family was poor, and even if we wanted to get married, I'm afraid no girl would be willing to marry into our family.

But ever since Qi Jun became a fart sniffer and helped his family get out of poverty, many girls from all over the country wanted to marry into the Qi family.

Especially the matchmaker who came to act as matchmaker for Qi Jun, he almost broke down the door of their house.

However, Qi Jun knew his own situation. In order to avoid social failure, he had no intention of finding a partner in his hometown.

He has also tried to find a partner outside, but finding a partner really depends on fate. There are girls who like him, but he doesn't like them. After all, with his current income, he is qualified to choose.

But the girl he likes doesn't like him.

Because the girls he likes are relatively outstanding, their income is not as high as his, even less than one-third of his.

But the girl has no shortage of suitors.

If Qi Jun had a more respectable job, with the income he earned, he would definitely have a chance to win the girl of his dreams. Unfortunately, he was doing a "shameful" job.

A fart smeller specializes in smelling other people's farts. No matter how much money this profession makes, it is not something that can be discussed openly.

Qi Jun was helpless, but he couldn't force such things, so he could only let nature take its course. He was still young anyway, and it wouldn't be too late to look for someone after two or three years.

The only headache is that if he doesn’t get married, it will delay his younger brothers’ marriage.

Qi Jun has been hanging out with people outside for more than ten years, and his ideas have actually changed a long time ago. He believes that there is no need to arrange marriage from oldest to youngest, and he has also mentioned this to his parents.

But his parents were both born and raised in the countryside, and had never traveled far in their lives. They were determined to carry out the traditions passed down by their ancestors.

The most important thing is that other families in the village also retain this tradition, and it will take time to get them to change this concept.
