Chapter 41: Leek buns also eat garlic
The fly came back, holding a bag of buns and placing it in front of Cai Gen. He went to the kitchen to make tea and get garlic. After bringing it back, he started to be polite like a host,
"Lao Gen, eat it while it's hot. I drove to the market to buy them. 10 leeks and 5 meat ones, just out of the pot."
After saying that, Cai Gen took a meat bun and stuffed it into his mouth. "You don't have to be polite. It's money you spent. Why are you so polite?"
I also took a meat bun and was about to put it in my mouth when the fly spoke,
"Lao Gen, I suggest you eat leeks, which are aphrodisiacs and delicious. Steamed buns stuffed with meat are 1 yuan each. They are so cheap, but generally they are not good meat."
Cai Gen stopped his hand. This grandson is too bad. He is not good meat. Are you picky about meat? He pretended not to hear anything, took a bite of the bun and started to pick the garlic.
The fly didn't pick the garlic, so he ate the remaining three meat-stuffed buns in two mouthfuls. Then he started to pick the garlic and continued eating with the leek buns.
The garlic was also done. Cai Gen saw that the meat buns were gone too. He put the garlic into his mouth. He was very depressed. He was still too young. He had been fighting flies for so many years and rarely won.
"Brother Fly, what does it taste like if you eat leek stuffing with garlic? Is it a skewed flavor?"
A steamed bun for two mouthfuls, a clove of garlic for each mouthful, the flies were sweating profusely after eating, and they did not forget to drink tea,
"It's okay. I have a pain in my shoulder recently. The masseur said to eat more garlic to remove the moisture."
Eat garlic to remove moisture, add leeks, well, Cai Gen has nothing to say, he can only eat the buns quickly, otherwise the leeks will be gone.
At this time, the door opened again. Cai Gen saw that it was not a customer, but his friend Liangliang. After Feng Fenghuohuo entered the house, he sat next to the fly and said anxiously,
"The fly, Wang Lei, is missing."
This is very serious news. The flies stopped eating the buns, stared at Liangliang and said,
"What do you mean by missing? For such a big person, he just disappeared after saying he was gone?"
Liangliang looked anxious, lit a cigarette, and answered the fly,
"Wang Lei didn't come to work on Friday. I've been calling him for the past few days, but he hasn't answered the phone. Please follow me to his mother's house to see him. I have a bad feeling."
Seeing the fly still holding the bun in his hand, Cai Gen also said anxiously,
"You're still eating hair. Hurry up and take a look with Liangliang. He won't run away."
The fly looked at the bun with a look of reluctance, but followed Liangliang out. He didn't dare to delay, but he didn't put down the bun in his hand. He probably wanted to eat it on the way.
After saying hello to Cai Gen, Liangliang and the others left.
Cai Gen continued to eat steamed buns, thinking that something big had happened this time.
Liangliang works in a government agency and became a minor in her 30s. She is considered a relatively young and promising person in Cai Gen's circle of friends.
It's just that he had some debt dealings with Fei Fei. His colleague Wang Lei was doing some business and often borrowed money from Liangliang. Liang Liang didn't have that much, so he borrowed money from Fei Fei and took some commission. This formed a triangular relationship. Wang Lei was the IOU, and Liangliang was the guarantor. In the past two years, I almost borrowed 500,000 to 600,000 yuan.
If Wang Lei ran away, the fly would be fine, and Liangliang would be stupid.
In order to make a small profit, there are many bloody examples of lending money to others, and the endings are not very good. I hope it will not happen this time.
The couple had finished drinking the water, and probably the time they had agreed with the school leaders had come, so they got up and left. The man couldn't help but thank Cai Gen before leaving.
It seems that this is a private negotiation with the school for settlement and compensation. Everyone is gone. Is it useful to ask for money?
It is useful, because those who are alive still have to live their lives.
The memory that suddenly appeared in Cai Gen's mind the day before yesterday was about the 24-year-old boy who died in the mining accident. The compensation was 1.24 million, which could give his never-seen son a prosperous childhood. If the young man went to work, he would not eat or drink for 1.24 million. Even if you have enough years to save, this is the role of money when people are gone.
There were 1 meat buns, 4 leek buns, and 15 buns. Cai Gen only grabbed 5 of them. He could only blame himself for his lack of strength. He drank more tea and was full. Suddenly thinking that he didn't give someone money for the ingot last night, Cai Gen felt very sorry. He didn't burn it well. It had nothing to do with the ingot itself. It was his own problem. The original price was the cost price, and he couldn't let anyone lose money.
I took out my mobile phone and found Chen Mei’s number. 8888 was easy to find. I called it and it took a long time to get through.
"Hello, Xiao Chen? I'm Cai Gen, who bought 100,000 Yuanbao yesterday."
The person on the other side hesitated for a moment, as if he was thinking about who Cai Gen was. Then he suddenly thought of it and said quickly,
"Oh, Brother Cai, I'm sorry for last night. I'm really sorry. I had to leave in advance because of an emergency."
Is this retreat the result of years of experience? By not mentioning yesterday’s weirdness, I’m trying to give everyone a step forward.
"It's okay, Xiao Chen. I'll add you on WeChat and give you ingot money."
Yuanbao money? Chen Mei hesitated again, was she talking about the ingot that couldn't be touched? Are you talking about the ingot that cannot be burned? I really don’t have much money and I really don’t want it, so what’s the excuse?
"Oh, Brother Cai, my mobile phone number is WeChat. There is no need to give you money for ingots. Yesterday was our 15th anniversary store celebration. If you make good friends, you can get free ingots."
When Cai Gen heard this, what did he say next? The Buddhist shop is selling ingots to celebrate the store. Girl, the reason you chose is very far-fetched and embarrassing. Cai Gen had to pretend to believe it.
"Xiao Chen, I don't know about your store celebration, so I'll add you on WeChat and give you some gifts."
It's better now, everyone is comfortable.
"Brother Cai, thank you. I'll treat you to dinner another day."
"Well, contact me again. Just hang up first."
After saying this last sentence, Cai Gen regretted it. It didn't sound good. Life is like making a phone call. Either you hang up first or I hang up first. It doesn't matter who hangs up first.
After the words were spoken and it was hard to explain, Cai Gen quickly hung up the phone.
Then I added Chen Mei on WeChat and transferred 2,000 yuan. After thinking about it, should I add another sentence, "Congratulations on getting rich" or "Happy store anniversary"? It’s not quite appropriate, so forget it and add the phrase “good luck”.
As soon as I put down the phone, my wife called,
"Lao Gen, how was the ingot burning yesterday?"
How to answer this? The burning went smoothly. By the way, our local landowner was also burned. The burning was very good.
"Honey, your fever is okay. Let's discuss the details when we meet."
"By the way, if that master or whoever asks you to do something in this area, don't agree to it first. Ask me first."
Wife, what does this mean? Who will ask me to do something? Why? It’s not easy to ask questions on the phone, so I can only agree first,
"Well, okay, I understand."
"Remember, I'm in class."
My wife has a lot of classes on weekends, so she hung up the phone in a hurry.
Cai Gen began to think wildly. His wife must have known something that he didn't know. He hadn't told her about the meat substitute or any kind-hearted things.
I opened WeChat and told my wife in detail how to burn gold ingots, how to burn land, and how to ask Xie for uneasiness. Let her read it when she has time.
There was no work all day, and it was not until about 11 o'clock in the evening that the door was pushed open. Listening to the ringing of the bell, Cai Gen quickly stood up from the bed, and then froze behind the bar,
As expected, Tian Lingling stood at the door.
