I am the chairman's dog.
The boys attracted a lot of attention with their outstanding looks as they walked in the crowd. The girls around them were whispering to each other, glancing at them between conversations, and even pretending to take selfies and secretly taking pictures of them.
As idols, they have long been accustomed to being surrounded by fans and followed by the camera. They walk leisurely among the crowd and chat and laugh with their brothers.
Pei Xu, however, was uncomfortably guarding the company's business license and official seal tightly. He kept his head down and looked forward, and turned away when he saw any camera that seemed to be secretly filming.
Jiang Lin noticed his discomfort and put his sunglasses on him.
Jiang Lin teased him, "Sunglasses and slicked-back hair make him look more stylish. Chairman Pei is young and promising, and already owns his own company."
Pei Xu felt more comfortable and said, "It's all thanks to the support of my brothers, otherwise I would be a chairman without any help."
"The chairman is very good at managing his subordinates. After hearing this, I feel like I can go back and plow another mile of land."
Xiang Chuzhe continued Cheng Enyue's words and said, "Brother Xu has only one purpose in motivating us to work, that is, there is a plum forest ahead. I even suspect that Brother Xu has studied management at our agency."
Pei Xu pretended to be surprised: "So you are so easy to fool!"
Jiang Lin pretended to be exaggerated: "Yes! Otherwise, how could I be tricked by the amateur program crew to come to your Shankara."
Speaking of Shankala, Xiang Chuzhe strongly expressed that he had something to say: "The first time I went to the recording site, I took a plane and then a car to the county town. I thought that the county town also had a bullet train, and the transportation was convenient. The moment I got out of the station, I was stunned. In front of me were mountains of rocks! Then I took a car for more than three hours to get to the villagers' home. There were mountains on both sides of the road. Some sections of the road were uninhabited at all. I even suspected that the program crew was a professional scammer who specifically picked on the artists and then asked for a high ransom from their families, or sold them out of the country. After all, it was close to the border. I was so scared that I silently sent the license plate information to my friends and sent the location at a fixed point."
Jiang Lin held his hand tightly: "I totally agree! I have never seen such a remote place. I even joked that the production team should change the route and stop farming and film the Metamorphosis instead."
"Hey, the chairman is still here. There's no hope for you two to get a promotion or a raise."
Pei Xu said with a smile: "Enyue, I really want to touch your dog head."
Cheng Enyue stretched his head to him cooperatively and said with a smile: "I am the chairman's dog."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Li Xuran pretended to be disgusted and said, "You have learned the tricks of workplace flattery. Is this what your agency teaches you normally?"
Cheng Enyue joked, "We are self-taught. The agency only paid us 3,000 yuan to learn music, and then asked us to take commercial performances." After saying that, he looked at the camera and said in fear, "Is this something we can say?"
Jiang Lin acted with him, pointed at him and said, "Xiao Cheng, be careful with your words and actions!"
The temple fair procession was heading towards their street, with more and more people coming and it was getting more and more crowded.
Pei Xu said, "Today is a festive day, so I'll spend some money to treat my brothers to some sour fruit. Last time, it was 65 yuan a plate, and Young Master Jiang kept talking about the sour fruit for two days after he got home."
Jiang Lin said jokingly, "Bleed a little? Today, we brothers must finish picking all the fruits on the stall and tell the boss to use a set of Dubai knife skills and uninhibited mixing techniques to make you eat so much that you will lose your pants."
Pei Xu bent his fingers and touched his chin, pretending to be incredulous: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, Young Master Jiang is a hidden talent. He even has a hobby of watching people streaking."
"Do I need to run naked? I admire my perfect body, my slim body lines, and my faintly visible abdominal muscles every day. Those fat bellies, please don't come over here!"
Li Xuran discovered the bright spot: "I said that every time you take a shower, it's like you're taking apart parts. It turns out that you're admiring yourself in the mirror in the bathroom. A young man full of vigor and vitality is like this in the bathroom. Could it be..."
Song Yifan put his arm around Jiang Lin's shoulder and reminded him jokingly, "Ahem, Brother Lin, I understand you. Take care of yourself."
Several people sat under the arbour, watching the temple fair procession slowly pass by.
Pei Xu was concentrating on replying to the message from the technicians of the drip irrigation and fertilizer integration system. People at the temple fair lit several strings of firecrackers, and the sound was deafening.
Pei Xu was startled and almost lost his grip on the phone. The next second, a pair of familiar warm hands covered his ears.
There was a hustle and bustle around him. At this moment, wherever Jiang Lin's hands touched was his whole world.
The surroundings were like the background in the photo. Pei Xu added a blur filter to them, and only he and Jiang Lin were left in the golden visual center of the photo.
The moment the noise disappeared, Jiang Lin quickly let go of his hand and said unnaturally: "The workplace is like a battlefield. You must always seize every opportunity to curry favor with your boss."
Pei Xu slowly relaxed his frozen body and responded in a relaxed tone: "Some people's paths are getting wider and wider."
The boss used a towel to scrape off the red firecracker paper scraps on the fruits, and my brother picked up a little of each.
"One hundred and twenty-five dollars."
"Boss, did you calculate wrong?" Xiang Chuzhe looked at the mango, guava, star fruit and pineapple on the plate and couldn't believe it.
"Yes, one hundred and twenty-five."
Pei Xu paid directly.
Xiang Chuzhe returned to the shed and sat down. Looking at the busy figure of the boss, he whispered, "This fruit acid is more lethal than the ice cream assassin."
Pei Xu said: "Here, the fifth and seventh days of the Lunar New Year are when young people return to the city in large numbers. After the seventh day, almost all young people leave. For the merchants in the town, they have lost the main force of consumption. After the temple fair today, students of all stages will also return to school one after another, so today's prices are the most expensive."
Taste buds are welcoming new experiences.
Cheng Enyue took several big bites of mango slices. "This mango slice with the ingredients is sour, sweet and crispy. It's amazing!"
Li Xuran picked a piece of yellow pineapple. "The pineapple is good too. It has a strong fragrance."
Song Yifan tried two bites, but his taste buds couldn't accept it. "I feel this thing is a bit dark. I know it's a local specialty and very popular. But just like I can't accept fried duck with pineapple, I can't accept sour fruit."
Pei Xu picked a few pieces and gave them to the photography teacher sitting at another table. "Teacher, you guys have a try."
After trying it, the photography teacher's eyes lit up and he gave a thumbs up.
Song Yifan said: "In the future, when there is no funding, I will go to the street to buy some fruits and seasonings to make some fruit sours, and sell them specifically to the teachers in various departments of the program group, so as to achieve an internal economic cycle and keep the benefits within the family."
The teenagers walked to the street, and not far from the government gate, a group of staff wearing reflective vests were walking back.
Lin Xing was walking on the side and Jiang Lin spotted him.
"Lin Xing." Jiang Lin waved and called out, and the brothers followed his gaze and saw him.
Jiang Lin pointed at his vest and said, "Why are you dressed like this? You look like a sanitation worker. I almost couldn't recognize you."
"There is a temple fair in town today. I was assigned to the □□ group and stood at a designated location to maintain order. I have been standing there for most of the day and I am exhausted."
Xiang Chuzhe touched his back and said, "I feel it. Your vest is also wet."
Lin Xing saw the transparent file bag in Pei Xu's hand and said in surprise: "You are here to get the business license! Why didn't you tell me in advance? Otherwise, when the temple fair team passes by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, I will buy a few strings of firecrackers and give them to you to set off!"
Pei Xu was very happy and said with a smile: "This is not your first time getting a marriage certificate. I have no experience. I will definitely treat you to bayberry wine when you go to the village."
Lin Xing took a step back and looked at them like an old man with admiring eyes.
"After you changed your clothes and fixed your hair, I felt even more that this was a dream. I was like, how could you farm? Are you really here to farm? This feeling is so strange!"
"They are genuine stars. With beautiful clothes and hairstyles, they look even more like stars. I am different. I am a farmer."
Lin Xing shook his head. "Pei Xu, you are being too modest. It doesn't look out of place walking with them. If I didn't know you, I would have thought you were a star."
Jiang Lin teased him: "Chairman Pei, your team of lackeys has added another person."
Lin Xing returned to the topic: "What do the villagers think?"
Li Xuran said: "I have been pruning with them these days and got some feedback. I feel that the situation is not ideal. They want to raise pigs, but they cannot do so on a large scale. Everyone is trying to raise a few or a dozen pigs. There is no pressure or burden in raising pigs, and they can also earn some extra income by selling them."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xing's colleague called him.
"I'll go into the village tonight and talk to you in detail."
The car slowly stopped on the ground in front of the house.
Liu Huabao and Liu Jie recognized their car and stood up and waved to them.
"Brothers, these are the chickens we raise at home. I'll catch two for you." Liu Huabao enthusiastically picked up two hens with their feet tied up. Their feathers were shiny and it was obvious that they were well raised.
Cheng Enyue said with a smile: "You are an expert at raising chickens!"
Liu Huabao was a little embarrassed and said modestly: "I don't know how to raise them. I just feed them with whatever I have at home."
Pei Xu asked: "Does your village have any ideas about raising chickens?"
"That night I went back and introduced the project to some villagers who were interested in breeding, but the effect was not very good."
Cheng Enyue moved two chairs for them to sit down and asked: "What are their main concerns?"
Liu Huabao motioned to the somewhat reserved Liu Jie to sit down as well, and responded: "First, there are too many chores at home, and the number of chickens raised is limited. However, if the number does not reach 50 or more, non-poverty-stricken households cannot enjoy the subsidy policy, and the price of chicks is a bit high. Second, the price of native chickens raised in the village is relatively low compared to Xiayan chickens, and they are worried that they will not be able to sell them at a high price."
The boys looked at each other and sighed as they saw that the situation in the village was roughly the same.
Xiang Chuzhe said: "Brother Lin is going to feel powerless again."
Liu Jie glanced at them and mustered up the courage to say, "I... and Brother Bao's family want to support them, but the subsidy policy is limited and we are not well educated." He licked his lips and said, "We need the help and guidance of the brothers. We will prepare the necessary materials to apply for the subsidy when the time comes."
Cheng Enyue and Liu Huabao have always been in close contact. Cheng Enyue is familiar with his family situation. He frowned slightly and asked, "Your father has difficulty walking, and the potatoes are in the harvest stage. Next, we will plant rice. All the farm work at home will be on you."
