Chapter 47: Encountering the Sixth Uncle

In the blink of an eye, three months have passed, and Carrefour is slowly on the right track. Lu Xiumei takes care of everything in an orderly manner, Li Dong only needs to be responsible for the "procurement" of goods, and there is no need to worry about other things.

After three months of accumulation, the space has now expanded to more than 510 acres, which greatly exceeded his expectations. Of course, Li Dong was not idle, in order to turn the space into a real world, he spent most of his time collecting all kinds of seeds and saplings everywhere, hoping to plant a circle of trees along the shores of Lake Xi.

Due to the short period of time, less than 300 meters have been planted so far, and the rest of the place is still bare. But there are also successful cases where the ranch fence has finally been built. In view of the limited number of livestock, Li Dong only enclosed a ten-acre pasture, which should be enough for a long time.

Today, Li Dong came to a flower, bird, fish and insect market again, Xihu Lake is still too monotonous, and he wants to improve biodiversity. Walking into the market, don't look at the small area here, but there are really a lot of shops, most of them are only a dozen square small cubicles, and there are many temporary stalls.

"Young man, come and see, authentic Chinese pastoral dogs, buy one get one free." The stall owner warmly welcomes customers.

"No, thank you." Li Dong hurriedly left, he didn't discriminate against local dogs, he really didn't have the energy to raise dogs.

"Handsome guy, the turtle is not or, it's a big supplement."

"You're a turtle, don't fool me." Li Dong smiled bitterly and said, these things have become uncommon in the last days, and ordinary people really can't tell the difference.

"Really? It seems that I admitted my mistake, but it doesn't matter, it's just as big as a supplement. ”

The stall owner was a simple peasant boy, and he touched the top of his head in embarrassment and ran into a connoisseur. The old turtle was fished by him from the village pond, and he was afraid that he would be discovered by the villagers, so he had to sneak over to try his luck.

"That's true, how can you sell this turtle?" Li Dong asked casually, if there is a cheap, pick it up, if it is not cheap, forget it.

The young man hesitated for a moment, and finally stretched out a finger: "One hundred yuan, I looked at the price in the aquatic product store, and I definitely didn't say much. ”

"It's expensive, it's not a few taels of meat in total, 50 yuan, it's okay, if it's not good, you better wait for the next person." Li Dong took out a 50 yuan bill from his wallet and shook it in front of the young man.

"Deal."

The young man snatched the banknotes, stuffed the cloth bag containing the old turtle into Li Dong's hand, smeared oil on the soles of his feet, and ran away with a bang. This is the highest price he has encountered in the morning, which is fully double that of the others, and he will not sell it now, let alone when.

Li Dong was a little inexplicable, could it be that he had been deceived, and looked at the old turtle, there was no problem. This is a wild old turtle, according to the market price, at least 300 yuan, the boy should go to the vegetable market to sell it, there are connoisseurs.

At lunchtime, Li Dong found a corner and put the results of the morning into the lake, there were fish, shrimp, shellfish, and of course, the old turtle. Out of the flower, bird, fish and insect market, Li Dong found a small noodle restaurant on the street and ordered a bowl of beef noodles.

After a while, the noodles were ready, and a young man dressed as a chef brought out a bowl of beef noodles from the inside. The young man put his face in front of Li Dong and blurted out:

"Young man, try our beef noodles, I promise you will want to eat this time and next time."

Li Dong didn't care, Wang Po sold melons and boasted about herself, and he often did this. But inadvertently, Li Dong glanced at the other party, hey, a little familiar. If you take a closer look, it looks very much like Uncle Six, but I haven't seen him for three or four years, and I'm a little blessed.

"Sixth uncle?" Li Dong asked tentatively.

The young chef was obviously stunned, and looked at Li Dong with puzzled eyes for a long time before replying in a somewhat uncertain tone: "Dongzi? ”

"That's right! I'm Dongzi, you're really the sixth uncle, it's too much of a coincidence. ”

Li Dong was obviously very surprised, the last time he and the sixth uncle saw each other was at the funeral of "grandma". Speaking of which, the sixth uncle is only four years older than Li Dong, and everyone is the same age, and they can usually chat a few words when they meet.

"Dongzi, why did you come to the capital?"

The sixth uncle was a little surprised, this Jiang'an City is not so easy to enter, and he also got a temporary residence permit by virtue of his income. As for the hukou, you can only officially apply for migration after ten years of marriage, which is also to prevent people from using fake marriages to cheat the hukou.

"I am ......"

"I see, you're here to work. By the way, how did you get a temporary visa?

Oh, I see, is it Feng Xue's college student who made a guarantee for you? ”

The sixth uncle interrupted the eldest nephew's answer and made up for it on his own. The capital does have a provision that allows for temporary visas if you are sponsored by a person of certain status.

Of course, this is only temporary, and the general period will not exceed a week. Feng Xue is a college student and a pillar of the future, so she naturally belongs to the group of people with a certain status. In addition, Feng Xue's father and the eldest are old classmates and have a deep relationship, so this little favor should not be a problem.

Thinking of this, the sixth uncle couldn't help but tighten his heart, it didn't make sense that Dongzi didn't know his own address, the second child must have told the boss. Could it be that Dongzi deliberately came to him in order to help him solve the problem of temporary residence permit?

"Huh." What else can Li Dong say, you can think whatever you like, so I don't bother to explain.

"Dog, what are you rubbing? Here we go again. ”

Suddenly, a sharp female voice came from outside, the dog is the nickname of the sixth uncle, and it seems that it should be the sixth aunt. The sixth uncle's handsome little face immediately turned red, and he replied a little annoyed: "Just come." ”

"Dongzi, it's your sixth aunt, and the sixth uncle still has something to do, so I'm busy first. Don't you go, we'll talk when I'm done. After the sixth uncle finished speaking, he didn't wait for Li Dong to agree, and hurriedly ran to the back kitchen, it seems that this "strict wife" is very heavy.

Li Dong shrugged his shoulders, anyway, it's okay in the afternoon, just stay a little longer. And no matter what, the sixth uncle is an elder, and this respect still has to be given, lest the sixth aunt look down on the sixth uncle even more.

I tasted a bite of beef noodles, although it was not as godly as Uncle Sixth boasted, but it was also at the upper middle level, which was more than enough for a small shop. It can be seen that the sixth uncle can become rich, not only because of color, but also by talent.

Lunch time passed quickly, and there was only one last customer left in the small shop except for Li Dong. The sixth uncle finally brought the sixth aunt over, the sixth aunt walked in front, and the sixth uncle followed behind.

"You're a dog... Ahem, Li Jian's eldest nephew, right? ”

The sixth aunt looks at least twenty-seven or eighteen, with high eyebrows and a broad face, a thick layer of lipstick on her lips, and her appearance is medium to low, she looks like a pungent master, Li Dong mourned for the sixth uncle for three seconds.

"Hello, Aunt Six, my name is Li Dong, you can call me Dongzi." Li Dong is still very polite.

"That Dongzi, let's go home and have a meal together in the evening." The sixth aunt had a non-negotiable tone.

"Yes, Dongzi, it's not easy for you to come all the way, your sixth uncle and I don't have any skills, and I can't help you, but it's okay to have a meal." The sixth uncle also persuaded on the side.

Li Dong understood now, the sixth uncle and his wife thought that they were here to fight the autumn breeze and wanted to send themselves away with a dinner. Forget it, if you misunderstand, you will misunderstand, anyway, they don't owe themselves anything, in order to make Uncle Six feel at ease, it seems that this dinner can't be avoided.

"Okay, then I'll disturb the sixth uncle and six aunts."

The sixth uncle was obviously relieved, and the sixth aunt glanced at Li Dong quite unexpectedly. She didn't expect Li Dong to agree so simply, and thought that he would mess around, she could even have a rolling pin ready.

Uncle Six's noodle restaurant is usually only open for breakfast and lunch, and when the last customer leaves, the couple begins to close its doors.

"Sixth uncle, this is the first time I have come to the door, do you want to bring a gift?" Li Dong asked as he helped clean up.

"Don't, cough, it's all family, what's polite." In fact, the sixth uncle was afraid that once he received the gift, it would be even more entangled.

Li Dong listened to it and didn't refute it, he was still happy.
