Chapter 395: Apples
After getting out of the car, I was still a little irritable, and before I talked to my parents on the phone, I thought that I could control my emotions well, cheer myself up, and work hard to resurrect Zhou Xiaoqin.
But now I understand that I am just desperately trying to find a way not to remind myself of Zhou Xiaoqin, and I know very well that my inner sense of self-blame for Zhou Xiaoqin can make me completely fall into the whirlpool of guilt and cannot extricate myself.
So I have to use external forces to make me forget about this matter for a while, I have done it before, and I have done it well, at least today I have been busy with the affairs of the agency, and I have not been reading Zhou Xiaoqin as usual.
But after talking to my parents on the phone, I thought of Zhou Xiaoqin's mother, and I felt very frightened: "What if she knew about Xiaoqin and died?" ”
I shook my head and took a deep breath to sober myself up, this point is not too late, this pedestrian street is the most prosperous street in Haicheng, so there are many people playing around this point.
When I got out of the car, I stood on the side of the street and looked like I was down, so passers-by looked at me a little strangely, but fortunately I quickly came to my senses, not because of my good self-control.
I tried to breathe in and out but couldn't calm down, but when I saw the familiar back of a fruit stall squatting on the side of the road and a fruit farmer bargaining, the irritability in my heart was defeated by curiosity for a moment!
I slowly walked behind him and was a little surprised after seriously comparing myself with the person in my impression: "Yun Tinghuan? Why are you here? ”
That's right, the person who is squatting on the side of the street and bargaining with the fruit farmer is Yun Tinghuan, the fruit at this point is no longer fresh, but the fruit farmer may have found that Yun Tinghuan is a stunned young man in this regard, so he raised the price of stale fruit to the price of selling fresh fruit in the morning!
Although Yun Tinghuan doesn't know the price of fruits very well, he also knows that just a few apples with average color should not be sold for such an expensive price, maybe it should be said that it is a slamming door, in short, he is bargaining with the fruit farmer at this time.
Hearing me call him behind him, he looked back at me in some surprise and then suddenly said, "You...... Aren't you that boss? ”
I looked at him a little speechlessly, how could I hear his tone as if he almost forgot me, we obviously met more than an hour ago, okay, I was kind enough to send this guy out of the door, I didn't expect him to be so forgetful!
I shook my head helplessly, glanced at the bag of apples that had been packed on the stall, and frowned: "How much do these apples cost?" ”
Hearing this, Yun Tinghuan frowned: "Say it's twenty!" ”
Although I don't know why he, a Taoist priest who should uphold the principle of non-contention with the world, wants to fight with others for the twenty yuan, but this fruit farmer is indeed cheating people, and I and this Yun Tinghuan can be regarded as acquaintances, so I naturally can't sit idly by!
I glared at the fruit farmer and sneered, "Okay, you, such a bag of broken apples sells for twenty?" Let's go, isn't it apples, let's go to the mall next door to buy them, and you can buy seven or eight apples of this color in the mall for about five or six yuan! ”
Hearing this, the fruit farmer's face was a little ugly: "Eh! What does it matter to you that we do business?! ”
He didn't notice that Yun Tinghuan's face was even more ugly, I looked at his posture and almost pulled out the peach talisman sword behind him to find this fruit farmer to fight to the death, he gritted his teeth and glared at the fruit farmer: "You actually charged me more than ten yuan!" ”
I was also quite speechless when I heard this, I took out five yuan from my bag and handed it to the fruit farmer: "Do you want to sell it?" Five dollars should be too much, right? ”
Saying that, I picked up the bag of apples from the stall and stuffed it into Yun Tinghuan's arms, and then stuffed the money to the fruit farmer: "The most important thing in business is to be honest and trustworthy, if you leave it in the morning, you can sell twenty, is it too much for you to sell twenty at this point?" ”
The farmer was a little embarrassed by what I said, and the pedestrians on the side of the road also looked at the farmer with disdain when they heard what we were saying, which made him even more embarrassed.
He waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "Okay! Let's go! What you have taught me is that I will be honest and honest in the future! ”
As he spoke, he began to clean up the stall, obviously embarrassed to stay here any longer, and after waiting for him to leave, Yun Tinghuan handed me five yuan: "This is Apple's money just now......
I waved my hand and smiled: "Deduct it from your salary, I'm too troublesome to get the change!" ”
I was curious about why he had fallen to this point when he was able to live a very chic life, but I also knew that he wouldn't tell me the reason easily, so I didn't ask too much, and after saying goodbye to him, I turned around and walked to the mall, intending to buy some groceries first.
Unexpectedly, he followed in a hurry, and I glanced at him in surprise: "Is there anything else?" ”
He shook his head and pointed to the mall in front of him: "I'm going to go buy something too......"
"Uh......"
I frowned and wondered, "Then why are you buying apples outside?" If you go to the mall to buy, there is an accurate range of price increases and price reductions, and it will not make you almost fooled by someone for more than ten dollars! ”
Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, then sighed and said with a wry smile: "I didn't think much about it...... I was worried that apples in the mall would be too expensive, so I thought about finding a stall outside to buy them, but I didn't expect this to happen to me......"
Hearing this, I really couldn't suppress my curiosity, and after a moment of consideration, I cautiously asked, "Can you tell me what you spent your money on?" Your quality of life is not at all like that of a person who earns 100,000 yuan a month! ”
He is an intermediate Taoist, and the money he earns every month is definitely a lot more than me, after all, there are some tasks that he can accept but I can't accept, and most of the bounties for those tasks are ridiculously high.
Some rich and noble people pay attention to the cards, maybe just a simple task such as running a ritual will give a lot of higher prices than the normal price, the Wu family at the back door of the branch is an example, they are stunned to give 10,000 yuan more than the normal price!
But this makes me even more puzzled, I roughly calculated that Yun Tinghuan must have at least 100,000 yuan in his account every month, he will not live like this even if he eats and drinks spicy food every day, right?
Could it be that he ran away to gamble?
Thinking of this, I frowned, looked at Yun Tinghuan who was carrying a bag of apples, and sighed: "A small gamble is pleasant, but a big gamble hurts your body!" ”
"Huh?"
Hearing this, he was stunned and looked at me with some astonishment: "What did you say?" ”
Soon he reacted and hurriedly waved his hand to defend: "I didn't take the money to gamble, I just ...... I just ......"
As he spoke, he stopped talking again, and I knew that he shouldn't have squandered the money, so he waved his hand and smiled: "It's okay!" Never mind! I'm just casually saying that I misunderstood you, I'm sorry! ”
He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "My wife is sick, so I need a lot of money to treat her!" ”
