467. Chapter 465: Stupid, Rich, and Smart



Chapter 465: Stupid Man with a Lot of Money and High Acumen

Zhang Jinling sat on the tractor's bed and watched Gaojia Village getting farther and farther away. She actually breathed a sigh of relief.

These past two months, she felt as if she had a nightmare.

She is the eldest sister in the family. She helps her parents with work and takes good care of her younger siblings. The family has money from selling eggs and chickens, so life is not too bad.

But she never expected that after getting married, she would start to live a hard life.

At the beginning, whether Luo Xiaohua asked her to work in the fields or do housework at home, she would go and do it without saying a word.

But no one can stand double-standard treatment, so she had a conflict with her sister-in-law Huang Su'e, and then her parents-in-law took sides, which made her situation worse and she was depressed every day.

Now, she finally left the home that suffocated her.

She was in a good mood, like a bird that had found freedom.

In contrast, Gao Mingli also sat on the truck bed, but as if he wanted to keep out of the way of Zhang Jinling, they sat on each side, and in the middle were the vegetables, watermelons, and pear melons that Gao Mingcheng brought to the county.

Gao Mingcheng was in a good mood too. He saw the shadow of his past life in Gao Mingli, and also saw the shadow of Manyu's past life in Zhang Jinling. Therefore, he was willing to help Zhang Jinling and did not want Zhang Jinling to suffer the same fate as Manyu in her past life.

He is naturally in a good mood because he enjoys helping others.

After returning to the county, Duo Xiumei immediately stepped forward and said to him with a smile: "This morning, Old Man Gao from Xiaoyuan Village came to our store with his grandson to look for you. Look - that big rooster is what he brought for you. He said his grandson's illness has been cured, and he came to thank you specially."

Old Man Gao from Xiaoyuan Village was the one who sold the sick cow to Gao Mingcheng.

Gao Mingcheng obtained more than a pound of bezoar from the body of a sick cow and made a fortune.

Gao Mingcheng was in a good mood when he heard that his grandson's illness had recovered. He quickly said, "I said before that I would send his grandson a set of clothes. Have you sent it yet?"

Xu Xuanmei said immediately, "Of course I gave it to him. I personally picked out a good set for him. After the child put it on, he looked much more energetic. I saw that the clothes worn by old man Gao were also tattered, so I decided to give him a set of clothes as well."

Many of the beauties knew about the bezoar, so when they saw Old Gao and his grandchildren coming over, they were very generous in helping them.

What’s more, Old Gao and his grandson didn’t come empty-handed, but brought a big rooster!

Roosters cannot lay eggs, but they are valuable to the villagers. Therefore, many beauties even offered to invite Gao Laotou and his grandchildren to have lunch at their home, but Gao Laotou refused.

Gao Mingcheng nodded and praised: "You did the right thing!"

Gao Mingcheng looked at the rooster and said happily, "Aunt Hu, you can kill the chicken later."

Hu Yinchen agreed with a smile. In her eyes, the boss was the most generous and kindest person.

Zhang Jinling didn't know what happened, but seeing how enthusiastically Gao Mingcheng and his wife were in giving clothes to others, she remembered that when she got married, Gao Mingcheng and his wife also gave her clothes.

She thought to herself, her second brother is indeed a very generous person.

Although Xuanyue was a little surprised by Zhang Jinling's arrival, she welcomed her warmly and personally took her to Gaomingli's room, asking her to put her things down first.

Zhang Jinling found everything here new and tried hard to adapt to the new environment.

When they went downstairs, they heard Gao Mingcheng calling them to come and eat watermelon.

The watermelons picked from my own fields are sweet and delicious, the only drawback is that the rind is too thick.

But the thicker the watermelon rind, the more durable it is to store and transport. And in the village, the watermelon rind can be fed to chickens.

The county is small and there is no place to feed chickens. But I couldn't bear to throw away the watermelon rinds, so I decided to cut them into slices and dry them.

Watermelon rind can be eaten fresh or dried. Many beauties like to eat the dried ones, so I made it according to her taste.

When dealing with watermelon rinds, Zhang Jinling rushed to help.

After leaving Gaojia Village, Zhang Jinling felt happy, but also a little confused.

If she stayed in the village, she could work in the fields and raise chickens to hatch eggs, but when she came to the county, she didn't know what to do.

She told Xuanyuemei about her confusion, and Xuanyuemei said, "Don't worry, you can always find a job. You can help out in the store first, and when the kindergarten opens next year, you can go to work in the kindergarten."

Zhang Jinling did not participate in the training for kindergarten teachers, but it is not a big problem. Xuanyuemei can teach her little by little. Besides, the kindergarten needs a main teacher, a supporting teacher, and a childcare worker.

Zhang Jinling has no relevant knowledge, but she can also be a teacher and childcare worker. Every brick has its use, and so does every person.

That night, Gao Mingcheng told Xuanyuemei that he would go back to the village to shake honey the next day.

"There is too much honey to be processed in one day. I will stay in the village for one night and return to the county the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, go back and do your work without worry, I'm here." Xuanyuemei said with a smile.

After the couple chatted for a while, they fell asleep in each other's arms. The electric fan kept turning, bringing gusts of cool breeze.

The next morning, Gao Mingcheng prepared to return to the village, but what he never expected was that someone came to him with a sick cow.

The man was not tall, had a slightly hunched back, and an ordinary face, but his small eyes were full of cleverness.

As soon as he saw Gao Mingcheng, he started crying about the difficulties at home, such as having an 80-year-old mother and a three-year-old child.

He also said that his family was extremely poor and that his only valuable cow was sick and could not plow the fields at all. He wanted to sell it for money, but the cattle dealer offered too low a price.

He talked on and on for a long time, but Gao Mingcheng was only concerned about one thing, which was to rule out whether the disease the cow was suffering from was a zoonotic infectious disease.

Foot-and-mouth disease and anthrax are both infectious diseases that cattle often contract. The most serious thing is that they can be transmitted to humans and humans.

Gao Mingcheng first took a look at the middle-aged man who was trying to sell the cow. Seeing that he looked normal and did not seem to be sick, he began to observe the sick cow.

He first observed the sick cow's hooves and did not see any suspicious blisters or sores, so he felt relieved.

He saw that the cow looked anxious and its eyes were red. He reached out and touched it and found that its temperature was very high.

However, in addition to gallstones, other diseases can also cause this situation, so you cannot make a decision lightly.

He spent money to buy Old Gao's sick cow because he had heard related news in his previous life, but he had no idea the true situation of the man who suddenly appeared and wanted to sell him the sick cow.

In other words, the probability that Old Gao’s sick cow had bezoar in its body was 99%, while the probability for this cow was much lower.

The middle-aged man saw Gao Mingcheng observing the sick cow and felt a little panicked. He said, "I have a relative from Xiaoyuan Village. He knows that you bought old man Gao's sick cow at a high price. After hearing that, I hesitated again and again before coming to you."

"Boss Gao, please be kind and buy my sick cow. My mother hasn't eaten meat for three years, and my child doesn't have money to go to elementary school. School is about to start, and my family hasn't even saved enough money for tuition!"

"Boss Gao, just buy my cow and consider it a good deed!"

The middle-aged man was bold enough to kneel down and kowtow to Gao Mingcheng.

Fortunately, Gao Mingcheng was quick-witted and grabbed him in time.

"How long has your cow been sick? What price did the cattle dealer offer?" Gao Mingcheng asked.

"It has been sick for more than a year, so I called a veterinarian to see it. The veterinarian first said that the cow had eaten moldy and spoiled grass, and then he prescribed some medicine. But the medicine didn't work. The cow still refused to eat and ate very little. It howled every day and had a bad temper. But it definitely didn't have any serious illness, and there was nothing rotten on its body. If it weren't for this, the cattle dealer would not have bought it. But he was only willing to give five hundred yuan, which is too little! I have raised this ox for eight years. If it hadn't been sick, it could have made me a lot of money by plowing the fields all year!" The middle-aged man hurriedly explained the relevant situation.

At first, he planned to sell the sick cow to a cattle dealer.

Because the cow was sick, it refused to eat much, and it became thinner day by day over the past year. He was worried that if he kept it any longer, he wouldn't be able to sell it for even 500 yuan.

But later, I learned from relatives that Old Gao’s sick cow was actually bought by someone for a high price of eight hundred yuan.

In this case, he was unwilling to sell the cow for only 500 yuan, but for no reason, he did not immediately find Gao Mingcheng and ask him to buy his cow.

It was not until yesterday that he learned from his relatives that Old Gao brought his grandson to express his gratitude, and as a result, Gao Mingcheng gave him two sets of clothes.

After hearing the news, the middle-aged man could no longer hold back and came over early in the morning with the sick cow.

Hey, yes, in the minds of middle-aged men, Gao Mingcheng is just a stupid man with a lot of money!

Want to make money, come quickly!
