Chapter 10 Rent Collection

Although Li Yuan hated Wu Jinlong, the other party was also a landlord, so he could only step forward and say, "Boss Wu, is there something wrong with me?" ”

"What Boss Wu!" Wu Jinlong pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "Everyone is an old neighbor, you can see the outside world like this, you should call me uncle, Uncle Wu!" ”

"Phew, you deserve it too?!" Looking at Wu Jinlong's fat face full of fake smiles, Li Yuan couldn't help but take a sip in his heart.

In fact, the house where Li Yuan lives now originally belonged to him and his mother. But when Li Yuan was in high school, his mother suddenly fell ill and needed treatment, but the mother and son, who were living in embarrassment, couldn't even pay for the medical expenses. But Wu Jinlong took advantage of the fire to rob at this time, and offered a very low price to buy the house of Li Yuan's mother and son. At that time, Li Yuan was anxious to raise money for his mother's treatment, and he could only agree.

Later, Li Yuan's mother passed away, and he lost his shelter. At that time, Li Yuan didn't want to leave the place where he lived with his mother, so he rented the old house from Wu Jinlong again. Although the house is still the same house, Li Yuan has changed from a homeowner to a tenant.

Many neighbors were very dissatisfied with Wu Jinlong's behavior of taking advantage of the fire to rob at that time, and Zhao Qian's parents did not talk to him for a long time. And Li Yuan, who is the party concerned, is naturally more unforgettable, that is, from that time on, he began to call Wu Jinlong Boss Wu.

Although Wu Jinlong wanted to get close, Li Yuancai didn't appreciate it, and just looked at the left and right and said something else: "You haven't said anything about looking for me." ”

In fact, Wu Jinlong is just pretending to be polite, in fact, in his heart, he prefers Li Yuan to call himself "Boss Wu". So Wu Jinlong didn't bother with the title, and soon said with a smirk on his face: "Isn't it almost the end of the month, I'm here to collect the rent." ”

"Rent?" Li Yuan frowned and said, "It's only the twenty-fifth today, don't you usually pay the rent on the first day?" ”

Wu Jinlong's expression remained unchanged and said: "This month's situation is special, that ...... I'm a little tight on cash, so I want to collect it a few days in advance. Alas...... Uncle Wu also has difficulties, Xiao Li, you can be considerate of me, right? ”

Li Yuan only looked at Wu Jinlong's expression and knew that the so-called tight hand was just an excuse. The reason why he came to collect the rent in advance must have heard something unfavorable to him. Li Yuan thought about it for a while, and then thought that the only person who was most likely to spread this kind of rumor and convince Wu Jinlong was his precious son Wu Hua.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan asked Wu Jinlong quietly: "Did you hear any rumors that were unfavorable to me?" ”

"Hehe, I heard that you have been going out for a while recently." Wu Jinlong smiled a little embarrassedly, and then said without concessions: "I'm afraid that you will go out for too long, so ...... I just want to collect the rent first. ”

After listening to Wu Jinlong's words, Li Yuan was already sure that Wu Hua was making trouble behind his back. This guy was unwilling to be ridiculed by Li Yuan yesterday, so he moved his father out to take revenge on him.

However, now Li Yuan is money in his bag is not panicked, but he smiled faintly at Wu Jinlong and said: "You are right, I may really have to go out in a few days, anyway, you are already here, so pay the rent first." ”

After saying this, Li Yuan counted eight hundred yuan under Wu Jinlong's surprised gaze and handed it to him: "This is next month's rent, please write a receipt." ”

For a villain like Wu Jinlong, Li Yuan didn't dare to be careless, especially when it came to money, he was even more careful. So I just gave the money to Wu Jinlong here, and then asked him for a receipt.

Wu Jinlong also knew Li Yuan's habits, and after counting the banknotes to confirm the correct amount, he immediately took out a note from his pocket with a smile and said, "I have already prepared the receipt, you can see if there is any problem." ”

Li Yuan took the receipt and glanced at it, then carefully put it away and said, "No problem, nothing else, right?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll go first!" Wu Jinlong came to collect money, and after the goal was achieved, he was not interested in talking nonsense with Li Yuan, so after a perfunctory remark, he left with the money and a smile.

After Wu Jinlong walked away, Li Yuan opened the courtyard door and returned to his residence. He didn't want Wu Jinlong to see the three frighteningly big tomato "trees" in the yard, otherwise God knows what moths would come out of this greedy guy.

Although he was tired enough to choke all morning, Li Yuan didn't bother to take a sip of water, so he went to check the four ginseng trees planted in the flower pot.

In fact, the hot climate in the south of the Yangtze River in summer is not suitable for the growth of ginseng. However, when Li Yuan saw these four ginseng trees, he was still surprised.

After a day and a night of growth, the four ginseng trees are more than a foot tall on the ground. Not only are the plants green and watery, but they also have seven palm-shaped compound leaves. Li Yuan once checked on the Internet that only ginseng that is more than 20 years old will grow seven compound leaves. In other words, under the action of the golden beads, these four ginseng trees grow for a whole day, which is equivalent to growing in the wild for more than 20 years!

Li Yuan looked at the ginseng that was growing happily with joy, and couldn't help but whisper in admiration: "Tsk...... It's only been a day since it grew like this, and the peach pit is such a good thing! ”

Li Yuan said as he held the peach pit hanging on his chest, his face full of relief. If he had doubts the day before, he was now very sure that this peach pit would bring about a drastic change in his life. What seemed unrealistic in the past is now more than just a dream.

But happy to be happy, Li Yuan is still troubled by another question at the moment, that is, when is it more appropriate to harvest these ginseng.

You must know that if you harvest it early, the effect of the gold bead must not have completely disappeared, and it will inevitably be a tyrannical thing. And if it is late, it will be a waste of Li Yuan's time.

Fortunately, this problem did not bother Li Yuan for too long, and that night he found that the leaves of two of the ginseng trees were no longer as delicate as during the day, but had become dull, and even the leaves themselves looked a little wilted. The other two ginseng trees are still the same as before, and they look like they are thriving, no different from during the day.

Li Yuan himself is not clear why the ginseng that is also planted together has two different situations. However, one thing is certain, that is, there is no need to plant the two ginseng trees that have changed, but it is time to dig them up.

In these two Li Yuan, he also checked some information about wild ginseng, and knew that wild ginseng also pays attention to its appearance, and the whole ginseng, especially the roots, is preserved as intact as possible.

So when digging, Li Yuan was also very careful, trying not to break any of the roots. It took more than an hour to dig out the two ginseng sticks completely.

After the ginseng was dug up, Li Yuan found a soft-bristled toothbrush, dipped it in water and carefully washed off the soil on the epidermis, and the two ginsengs finally showed their true colors in front of him.

Looking at the two washed ginsengs, Li Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Awesome!" ”
