"And the transportation cost, over a thousand is an understatement!"
Huang Fei's grandfather was furious and threw out the exact amount of money to see if he would believe him this time!
"Ah, so many?" The unknown old man believed him somewhat after hearing his detailed explanation.
Once Huang Fei's grandfather opened his mouth, there was no stopping him, so he simply blurted everything out.
"It wasn't just him; they all made money this time. The least was more than a thousand, and some, like that kid Chen Feng, made three thousand this time."
"My grandson has a mileage of over 800, but that's because he drove back and forth, which took up time. Otherwise, he would have earned more than them!"
Huang Fei's grandfather said proudly.
In the eyes of the elderly, their own children are the best, and no one else is good enough.
"My God, they've struck it rich this time!" the unknown old man murmured, his expression full of surprise.
Seeing the surprise on the old man's face, Huang Fei's grandfather was quite satisfied.
Why did he say so much? Isn't this the effect he wanted?
"I'm telling you this, but don't tell anyone else. I'm only telling you this because we're close. My grandson repeatedly told us not to reveal it."
"If he knew I said this, he would definitely complain about me."
After they had their fun, Huang Fei's grandfather remembered this incident and gave him some serious advice.
"Don't worry, what kind of relationship do we have? Would I tell anyone?" The unknown old man's expression was quite resolute.
On the way back, the unknown old man muttered to himself, "The old man is just like he was when he was young, easily provoked, he takes the bait..."
Of course, it wasn't just Huang Fei's grandfather; the family and friends of his other companions were also experiencing the same scenario.
Within hours, news of how much money they made spread throughout the village.
"Holy crap, they've struck it rich this time! Qiuling City is a gold mine!"
"More than a thousand a week for one person, that's quite a lot!"
"My God, I should have gone with you this time!"
"Damn it, how much money did we lose this time? I'm definitely going to go with them next time they go out!"
The news of their harvest caused a great deal of discussion throughout the village, with everyone appearing very excited, especially those who hadn't gone, who were filled with regret.
Everyone was at home beating their chests and stamping their feet, feeling as if they had lost more than a thousand yuan.
They vowed that they would definitely go with Zheng Ping and his team next time they went out in a car.
However, what these people didn't know was that Zheng Ping and his group weren't planning to bring anyone else, and their hopes were about to be dashed.
After dinner, around nine o'clock, Chen Feng lay on the kang (a heated brick bed), intending to play on his phone for a while before going to sleep. He really missed his bed.
I've never felt so comfortable on this hard kang (heated brick bed).
No snoring, no sleep talking, no strange smells, no groping.
Everything was so wonderful.
I'm sure I'll have a good dream tonight, and I must sleep until I naturally wake up tomorrow.
He looked at his phone, his right hand instinctively reaching for the cigarette pack beside him. He turned it over and realized he had already finished the last cigarette.
In such a comfortable moment, you're telling me you're out of cigarettes?
Chen Feng leaned against the kang (a heated brick bed) and really didn't want to move. He thought he might as well play on his phone for a while and then go to sleep.
But then I thought, if I don't buy it now, I still won't have any cigarettes to smoke tomorrow morning. Am I supposed to wake up groggily and go to Lu Dahai's house to buy cigarettes?
Never mind, let's go now.
Chen Feng got out of bed, put on his shoes, and walked towards Lu Dahai's house in his pajamas.
As soon as Chen Feng entered Lu Dahai's house, the vicious dog tied up by the yard started barking wildly at him.
There wasn't one before; it's probably because Lu Dahai couldn't hug her while Chen Feng was away.
The vicious dog looked to be about three months old. It was a small white dog, but its fur was dirty and grayish, and it wasn't even as long as Chen Feng's forearm.
All I can say is that when you're weak enough, even getting angry seems like you're being cute.
This little dog is no threat at all when it comes to guarding the house.
"Awoooooo!"
Chen Feng threatened the dog.
Whether it was genuinely frightened or thought Chen Feng was crazy, the little white dog turned around and actually went back to its den.
Chen Feng was quite pleased with himself, feeling that he was full of intimidation.
Pushing open the door to Lu Dahai's house, the house was as lively as ever, and people greeted me as soon as I entered.
"Fengzi, you're back."
"Yeah, just got back." Chen Feng casually replied and walked to the counter.
Before Chen Feng could speak, Lu Dahai blinked and said, "I heard you earned more than three thousand this time. What happened? It's not as much as before."
Chen Feng: "..."
When Chen Feng heard them trying to keep the news a secret while they were in the car, he thought it was impossible.
It's not like there are only one or two people involved; it's impossible to keep it a secret forever. There are no secrets that stay hidden forever.
But he felt he could manage for a few more days; he had that much self-control, right?
To my utter surprise, the news spread throughout the entire village in less than three hours.
Okay, I can understand. Who wouldn't want to show off when they first earn so much money?
When Chen Feng first started panning for gold, and the whole village was amazed, he also felt great.
"Hey, who can be so lucky every day? Do you really think I'm some kind of gold-digging miracle?" Chen Feng leaned against the counter and pointed to the Yellow Crane Tower and the White Pagoda.
He wanted to try something different, so he ordered a Yellow Crane Tower restaurant.
Lu Dahai handed him the cigarettes from the shelf and couldn't help but say, "Well, you have more than others. Most people have an average of over a thousand, but you have three thousand. You've already spent enough to buy two bottles. What more do you want?"
"That's pretty good. If I could have your income, I'd be ecstatic."
Chen Feng felt helpless upon hearing Lu Dahai's words. "You guys are way too well-informed. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were there at the time."
"Want to make more money? Sell counterfeit cigarettes. Your profit margin is much higher than mine," Chen Feng said with a smile as he took the cigarettes.
Upon hearing this, Lu Dahai immediately became nervous and quickly said, "Don't talk nonsense, I never sell fake cigarettes."
“Indeed, I don’t know if they’re fake or not, but you have a lot of counterfeit goods. Have you sold out of your cheap cigarettes?” Chen Feng said, looking at the shelves behind him.
"Hey, don't even mention it. I think that workshop went out of business. The police raided it all. Apparently, they said they were selling counterfeit and substandard goods. I don't know, but that's about it."
"I just got some new Kangshuaibi, would you like to try a bottle?" Lu Dahai picked up a bottle and chuckled.
"Kang Shuaibi?"
Chen Feng was dumbfounded when he took the bottle. What was this thing? How could it be sewn like this?
"What the heck is this? Iced tea flavored Sprite?"
Chen Feng likes both of these drinks, but if you were to mix them together…
Well, he wants to live two more years.
"This stuff won't kill anyone, will it?" Chen Feng said, frowning.
"It won't kill you. I even tried it. It's sweet and not bad. I took a sip and gave the rest to the little white dog by the door. Look, it's still jumping around. No problem," Lu Dahai assured him.
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. So you weren't confident either, and you were using dogs as test subjects, huh?
