Section 26 The economic crisis of the three members of the Luo family
As we said before, Luo Xiang is still a senior in high school who relies on his parents, and the extra 800 yuan in living expenses on his bank card at the beginning of each month is all his financial resources. In the past year, he had saved more than a thousand yuan for himself, and now the cash was locked in his drawer - it was unlocked before, but now he had to keep an eye on fire and theft.
"That's the way it is. I was pulled back by Xiaoling on the 29th of last month, and I haven't even withdrawn the money for December until now. β
Xiaobai and Fang Xiaoling were both anxious. Xiaobai should be anxious for Luo Xiang, and Fang Xiaoling ...... Without even thinking about it, she must be afraid that she will never be able to eat white food again.
"Ah, that's right!" Fang Xiaoling clapped his hands and proudly came up with an idea, "You can call and ask your parents!"
"Do you think I can't think of it?" Luo Xiang glared at her, "Of course I forgot my phone number! Besides, what if the password of that card is my parents' birthday? Do I dare to ask? It's still a card given by my father, even if I want to go to the bank counter to handle it myself......
"Hmm...... What should I do then?" Fang Xiaoling panicked again, "Don't you have any other income?"
"You don't pay any rent and ask me what income I have?"
"Don't be nervous!" Xiao Bai maintained sufficient composure at the critical moment, "First of all, I want to tell you the bad news, I have worked in Senluo Mansion for so many years, and I have never heard of Meng Po Tang as an antidote, so I suggest that you don't work hard in this regard." But to put it another way, although the funds in the bank card are temporarily frozen, there is always no shortage of ways to make money in this society, and we can find another way to generate income. β
Xiaoling and I are not underage, and no one wants to go out to work. β
"I won't go when I'm an adult. Fang Xiaoling cocked Erlang's legs, "I am a beautiful girl spirit spell master, and someone is waiting for me every day when I eat and drink, and now you actually let me go out to work?"
"You eat white food and eat with pride, don't you?"
Luo Xiang didn't know what to say about her. There is a saying here in Lanling, "If people want to be shameless, the gods are difficult to manage."
"Hmph......" Fang Xiaoling pouted and hugged his arms, avoiding Luo Xiang's gaze and muttered, "It's impossible to work part-time, it's impossible to work in this life......"
Xiaobai's face was full of smiles: "Hehe, don't look for me." Anyway, I am also an excellent employee of Senluo Mansion, a serious public official, and the only people in the world who are qualified to call me are Lord Bai and Lord Ghost King, how can I get my hands dirty for the sake of the menial work of the human world?"
This woman's sense of professional honor is quite strong.
However, Luo Xiang didn't plan to look for her. First, she was busy enough to take care of Fang Xiaoling every day, and secondly, what about it...... She doesn't even have a document on her, so what serious job can she find?
"How do you create that?" Luo Xiang spread his hands, "Is it possible for me to set up a stall to performβhey, I said casually, what are you applauding?"
"You can go to the square and circle around and perform chest crushing boulders and invulnerability!" Fang Xiaoling's eyes sparkled, "Or play that drill to open your mind, this is a new show, there is no one before or since!There must be many people who are willing to watch it!"
Listen to this saying, "There is no one before and no one after that", isn't that right? The ancients and those who dare to perform this show have to report to Xiaobai halfway through the performance.
"I'm pretty sure you're overestimating the curiosity of the Lanling people. Luo Xiang snorted coldly, "And you said this, the first two recruited the city management and the latter recruited the police." If I really go to act, I don't think I can make any money, but my cellmates can make a few. All in all, if you all have such an idea, then don't say it yet, I thought about it, the solution to the lack of money is nothing more than open source and throttling, and now the source is not only unable to open but also called Meng Po Tang to cut off one, we can only think of throttling. β
"It's just to save money...... Fang Xiaoling's face suddenly collapsed, "You won't even have to deduct what you eat, right?" I want to eat sheep brain ...... tonight."
ββ¦β¦ It's a small thing, it's easy to do. β
Luo Xiang agreed, brought the toolbox and took out the electric drill. A minute later, Fang Xiaoling screamed and desperately shrank into Xiaobai's arms, never mentioning whether to eat sheep brains or monkey brains.
Luo Xiang didn't feel that there was anything immoral about bullying the little girl, from the first day he knew Fang Xiaoling, he knew that he and this little Lori didn't know who owed whom, anyway, there was no need to be polite. Since this girl eats his use and treats this place as if it were his own, he feels that he should also use the power of the landlord to let her know who is the master here.
Xiaobai comforted Fang Xiaoling for a long time before putting her aside, for some reason she was a little embarrassed, she wanted to speak and stopped, and looked at Luo Xiang for a long time, and she asked anxiously:
"That'...... Luo Xiang, how much money do we have at our disposal now?"
"Why are you asking this?" Luo Xiang blinked, "Is there anything you want to buy?"
Luo Xiang has completely different attitudes towards Xiaobai and the other party, Xiaoling. Don't talk about him, most normal people in this world will be like this.
"Hmm...... The shampoo in the bathroom has run out, and there are some other daily necessities......" Xiaobai pointed at his finger a little embarrassed, "and ...... Me, me, me, me, me...... I want ......"
Her voice suddenly became as thin as a mosquito, and even Luo Xiang's current hearing could not hear what she was saying, so she had to ask again. Xiao Bai hesitated for a long time before he finally folded his hands on his chest and said with determination-
"I want ...... Buy a dress ......"
β¦β¦
Luo Xiang knew that he must be crazy.
What is the price of a girl's winter clothes, Luo Xiang didn't have a fixed score in his heart, but he was roughly mentally prepared. Of course, high-end down jackets and flower cotton jackets can't be a price, but Luo Xiang feels that it is a matter of thunder to let a naturally dignified and elegant woman like Xiaobai wear a rustic cotton jacket, for example...... Can you imagine what ****** Queen would look like walking down the street in Mario's suspenders?
Xiaobai's reason for buying clothes is very simple. She only had that one piece of clothing on her, that is, the woolen sweater and slacks she wore when she first came to see Luo Xiang, and she wore this set for a full twelve days. Laundry, cooking, and going out to buy groceries are all this set, and there is not even a change of washing. Girls who love beauty have to change every day even in winter, even if they are sloppy, they always have to see other colors in a week, right?
According to Xiaobai, she felt a little embarrassed when she heard the aunt selling vegetables talking about her in the vegetable market today. But Luo Xiang knew that she must have had some ideas in her heart. Not to mention anything else, if you want to just wear an outerwear, but she doesn't even have underwear to spare, who can bear it?
Is this too much to ask?
If this is changed to another man and live with a beautiful and diligent family goddess like Xiaobai, let alone a piece of clothing, even if she sells the house, she will have to support her.
Of course, Luo Xiang would not be so irrational - the house was jointly owned by his parents, and the real estate certificate was not in his hands at all.
There is no need for more reasons, under Xiaobai's pitiful gaze, no man can resist falling in less than three seconds. Of course, as a ghoul, Luo Xiang earned enough face for his male compatriots, and he lasted a full four seconds before he was defeated.
ββ¦β¦ Buy!" he said through gritted teeth.
"But aren't we already short of funds?" Xiao Bai asked, "Although I will try to choose a cheaper one, I have to change the whole body, even if I don't buy branded goods, I have to have a few hundred yuan to get ......."
ββ¦β¦ Don't worry! I still have more than 1,000 dollars in shopping reserves at my disposal! Yes, at my disposal!"
Luo Xiang slapped his swollen face and became fat. If he wasn't a corpse, I'm afraid there would have been a drop of sweat running down the back of his head at this time, right?
"Really?" Xiaobai smiled, extremely moving, "Luo Xiang, you are so good......"
"Generally...... Luo Xiangyun waved his hand lightly, thinking seriously about the feasibility of going to the square to perform and open his mind.
"Ah, it's a rare opportunity, buy one for Xiao Ling. She patted the little Lori next to her on the head lovingly, "You only have this set of clothes, right? It's so thin, it doesn't look warm at all, it's okay to stay at home now, what if you have to go out one day?"
"Huh?" Fang Xiaoling shrugged, "There's no need, I have a warm talisman attached to this set of clothes, and the shelf life is two years!"
Luo Xiang secretly applauded Fang Xiaoling's sloppiness in his heart, and the money saved can buy you a year's worth of Wangzi small steamed buns!
"That's not good!" Xiao Bai objected, "How can a girl be so unconcerned about her image? Wearing this in the winter will be regarded as a psychopath! Leave it to me, I promise to dress you up beautifully! Luo Xiang also thinks this is better, right?"
Facing Xiaobai's gentle inquiring gaze, what else could Luo Xiang say?
This is called "self-inflicted"......
