Tang Jiamei's skills in frying fish and making fish sauce were very much to Gu Wei's liking.
He accidentally ate too much again for dinner that night.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to walk alone and digest her food after refusing Zhao Zhengyuan's offer to accompany her, she returned to the modern world.
There are more than twenty missed calls on my phone.
Gu Wei flipped through the list and found Song Daming, some classmates, and some unfamiliar numbers.
He didn't rush to return the call, but instead checked WeChat.
There's been a lot of news.
Many new people joined him, including Lu Xue.
Gu Wei curled his lips into a cold smile, pretending not to see anything.
Then he only contacted Song Daming.
"Brother, what's wrong with you? You're not replying to my WeChat messages or answering my calls. If I weren't at work, I'd be tempted to run over to your house to see if someone found out you won the lottery and broke in to rob you!"
Gu Wei laughed and scolded, "Get lost! Why don't you want me to be nice to you? I went out on errands and forgot my phone. Next time something like this happens, just wait for my reply."
Gu Wei pondered at the same time, thinking that once or twice was fine, but it would become a problem in the long run.
And the 84th side also needs to find a place to stay.
Otherwise, it would easily arouse suspicion.
"Okay, I know you're a very busy person these days."
Song Daming said very quickly, "Lu Xue leaked the news that you won the lottery! Have you seen the dorm group chat? The eldest and second eldest are making plans to fly over so you can treat them."
"The class group chat is buzzing too, everyone's thinking of throwing a party where Young Master Gu pays for everything..."
"I haven't checked. I'll definitely make arrangements when the boss and the others arrive. But I'll skip the people from my class..."
Gu Wei doesn't care if more people know.
However, no matter how fast he makes money, he's unwilling to be taken advantage of.
Song Daming also agreed with Gu Wei's approach.
The two chatted for a while longer before ending the call.
Gu Wei stayed at home for half a day before returning to the 84th district.
On the way back, Gu Wei thought it over again and again, and decided to rent a house at the foot of the mountain.
Because if you live in the forest farm, it will be very inconvenient to go anywhere.
If this goes on for too long, it's hard to guarantee that Uncle Zhao and the others won't discover something amiss.
That night, Gu Wei slept in the east room with Zhao Dajiang and the others.
The next day, after breakfast, Gu Wei left Zhao Dajiang twenty watches.
Afterwards, he and Zhao Zhengyuan took a bus down the mountain together.
When they arrived at the relatives' house of Zhao's third daughter's husband, they saw the wild ginseng, which was of very high quality.
Gu Wei gave the other party two watches and successfully exchanged them.
After they went outside, not only was Gu Wei all smiles and very happy, but Zhao Zhengyuan also looked excited.
"Brother Gu, where are you going next?"
Gu Wei thought for a moment, then said without hiding anything, "I want to rent a place. It's too unstable to always be moving around and staying in different places. It's also inconvenient for you to pick up goods from me."
Zhao Zhengyuan immediately got excited and patted his chest, saying, "Brother Gu, leave this to me! My colleague's relative has a vacant house, but the rent is a bit expensive, fifteen yuan a month, and it hasn't been rented out yet."
However, after he said it, he realized that what might be expensive for others might not be so for Gu Wei.
Gu Weizhen was surprised that renting a house would be so easy, and her eyes lit up with delight: "Really? That's great! Can you ask around for me? I can accept this rent."
He wouldn't care if it were fifteen, or even more.
With a place to stay, future trips back and forth will be much faster and safer.
Zhao Zhengyuan said excitedly, "Then come with me to the timber processing plant."
"OK."
On the way, Gu Wei learned more about the situation.
It turned out that Zhao Zhengyuan's colleague and relative had been transferred to work in the city, so the Forestry Bureau's house was vacant.
However, because the house has wooden floors, has been simply renovated, and the furniture is well-maintained, it is not only expensive to rent out, but also has strict requirements for tenants.
That's why it hasn't been rented out yet.
When the two arrived at the location, Gu Wei did not go in with Zhao Zhengyuan, but stood at the factory gate waiting for him.
Looking at the factory gate and the stacking workshop and office building inside, Gu Wei still found it quite novel.
In fact, ever since he acquired the cheat ability to travel between two time periods, he had also been eyeing the timber in the forest area.
Later, when I thought about the modern era of complete logging bans, I realized that it would be very troublesome if it caused trouble, so I gave up those ideas and started to focus on making watches for the time being.
Not long after, Zhao Zhengyuan came out with a middle-aged woman with short hair.
Zhao Zhengyuan introduced the two of them.
"Brother Gu, this is Sister Liu, my colleague from work."
Gu Wei greeted her politely with a smile, "Hello, Sister Liu."
"Hello."
Liu Liping looked Gu Wei up and down.
Logically speaking, the young man looked quite dashing, dressed neatly and cleanly, and didn't mind paying for the room; she should have readily agreed.
But after all, it's not his own house; besides his brother, there's also his sister-in-law and niece.
If you ruin the house, you'll be blamed.
After seeing the house, Gu Wei was quite satisfied.
It's a detached house with a gate made of sheet metal.
There is a storage room and a woodshed in the front yard, and the toilet is in the back yard.
There are also a few plum and crabapple trees in the back garden.
Needless to say, the house is ready to live in after a simple wipe.
After talking with him, Liu Liping felt reassured about Gu Wei.
So, the house was rented very quickly.
Zhao Zhengyuan originally wanted to stay and help Gu Wei tidy up.
But Gu Wei used ten watches to distract him.
After locking the front door, Gu Wei clapped his hands in satisfaction and went inside.
