Chapter 866 Charlatan
Some people are worse than dogs.
Some dogs know the evil in people.
In the monotonous vision of the black-backed wolfhound, the strange faces of Butcher Zhang and Teacher Qian appeared.
Its keen nose and the smell it detected made it certain of the malicious intent emanating from the two men.
"Woof!" The Overlord barked, his head tilted, foam came out of his mouth, and he lay on the ground pretending to be dead.
Teacher Qian raised his arm and shouted: "The dog of the great calligrapher Zheng Banqiao was seriously ill!"
Butcher Zhang grinned, and in an instant, the souls of thousands of pigs hung above his head, possessing his body!
The bully dog was horrified, pulled up its legs and fled in panic.
Teacher Qian urged: "Quick, quick, take it! You will be the next Master Zhang!"
Butcher Zhang raised his strong legs, roared loudly, and chased after the big wolfdog.
Teacher Qian was like a tiger's lackey, shouting viciously: "Quick, make braised pork!"
……
Xue Chuchu went out and brought the pot to Jiang Ning's house and happened to see this scene.
He chased it and it fled, the scene was quite exciting.
She watched for a while before she remembered the important matter.
After Chuchu left, only Jiang Ning and Tongtong were left in the kitchen.
Tongtong had a stern face and was too lazy to look at him.
Jiang Ning explained: "I sent a message to Chuchu and asked her to carry the pot, so that it would be just the two of us."
Tongtong forgave him immediately: "Don't you think I won't be sad just because of this? By the way, what's delicious in the pot?"
Jiang Ning: "You get angry too easily. There are cute little ducks in the pot."
Tongtong: "It was you who provoked me first. You only caught the ducklings. Their families will be sad."
Jiang Ning: "I'm just teasing you, it's okay, they're all here."
Tongtong: "Don't do this next time. What if I can't finish them all? It's a waste!"
The two people communicate in a two-threaded manner.
Butcher Zhang was chasing the dog outside, but he couldn't catch up with it after a while.
Dongdong, who was practicing hitting bricks, pointed at him and laughed, "Hahaha, Uncle Zhang, you're still chasing a dog. This dog runs faster than your grandfather!"
Butcher Zhang was in a rage. No pig had ever been able to escape his knife, but now the dog he raised personally ran away from the grassland.
He rushed towards Dongdong with great momentum.
Dongdong picked up the brick in his hand and threatened: "Don't come over here! I will smash you to death!"
Butcher Zhang showed an extremely contemptuous expression. He deliberately slowed down his pace and walked towards Dongdong step by step.
Dongdong felt insulted, so he raised the brick in his hand and threw it out.
Butcher Zhang didn't even try to dodge, and the brick whizzed past his shoulder.
He rushed to Dong Dong and grabbed his neck: "I deal with the King of Hell every day, so why would I be afraid of a brick from you?"
Butcher Zhang picked up Dongdong and slapped him twice, making Dongdong scream in pain.
Teacher Qian was extremely happy, killing two birds with one stone!
He said seriously: "Dongdong, what did you say about your Uncle Zhang!"
Dong Dong was being strangled by the throat. Recalling Uncle Zhang's fear, he begged for mercy: "Uncle Zhang, I was wrong. I shouldn't have said that your grandfather couldn't run as fast as the dog. They both run just as fast!"
A minute later, Dongdong left crying.
Butcher Zhang vented his anger, gathered his strength and continued to chase the dog.
Yang Fei was carrying a plastic bag and delivering food to a customer when he passed by. He was surprised: "Brother Zhang, why are you chasing Jiang Ning's dog?"
Butcher Zhang glared at him.
Yang Fei was puzzled. After delivering the dishes, he turned back, but Butcher Zhang had already run far away.
Seeing Zhang Ruyun standing at the door, Yang Fei asked again, "Just now your father was chasing Jiang Ning's dog. Is he in a bad mood?"
Zhang Ruyun's face darkened, he said nothing, and turned back to the house.
Yang Fei was confused and thought that there must be something wrong with the father and son.
……
When Chuchu brought the pot back to the kitchen, she found Jiang Ning and Tongtong talking and laughing.
Xue Chuchu pursed her lips.
She put the pot down, and Tongtong immediately came closer and reached out to touch it.
Xue Chuchu reminded: "Be careful of the heat."
She took the pot off the induction cooker.
Tongtong: "Don't worry, I have a pair of eyes and two hands."
She lifted the lid of the pot, and a burst of spicy steam wafted out. What came into view was a pot of shiny duck wings and duck feet stewed with a rich variety of side dishes, including clams, snails, quail eggs, bamboo shoots, and colorful chili peppers, onions and garlic. Tongtong's saliva almost dripped into the pot.
Xue Chuchu secretly clenched the tissue, ready to catch her saliva at any time.
Tongtong slurped her saliva and smiled: "Jiang Ning, you are so nice!"
Jiang Ning tilted his ears: "I didn't hear it."
"You are so nice!!" Tongtong shouted.
Jiang Ning: "Do you want me to treat you well from now on?"
Tongtong nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "Yeah!"
Jiang Ning: "Do you know what the conditions are for me to be nice to you?"
Tongtong: "Obey, obey! Absolute obedience!"
Jiang Ning: "Okay, then you are not allowed to eat lunch today."
Tongtong was unhappy: "No way!"
Xue Chuchu thought to herself: 'Have you two finished your performance?'
After the performance, Jiang Ning moved the dining table to the main room, which faced the fields and was very spacious. The sun was shining brightly today, and with the presence of magic, it was not cold at all.
There are several dishes today, including garlic shrimps, braised pork ribs, dry-pot squid, stir-fried cabbage, Jiang Ning's favorite eight-treasure rice pudding, and the duck pot that Jiang Ning brought home.
These dishes are for three people.
Xue Yuantong knew how to eat. She picked up a piece of duck wing and took a big bite.
The ducks in Qingyu Lake are blue-headed. Every winter, these wild ducks often fly south to spend the winter. As the environment of Qingyu Lake is so good, they settle here. They usually eat small fish and shrimps in shallow waters. Because they are wild, they often fight for no reason. Therefore, they have a lot of meat and crispy bones, with very little fat. They taste very delicious instead of having any smell.
After the wolfhound next door smelled it, its running speed slowed down.
Xue Chuchu also picked up a piece of duck wing. She had been studying cooking, so she could see that the wing was fried first and then stewed.
"Could it be that he cooked the meal?" Xue Chuchu thought.
She took a bite of the duck wing. The skin was crispy and fragrant, and the meat was so tender that it seemed to be falling off. It was extremely delicious.
"Is it delicious?" Jiang Ning asked.
"Woo woo, delicious." Tongtong spoke unclearly.
Jiang Ning also had a duck wing. He had just finished eating the meat when Xiaoben, who was being chased next door, ran past the door.
Jiang Ning threw the bone out casually, and Xiao Ben grabbed it in his mouth, chewing it while running.
Butcher Zhang's blood was boiling and he could hardly run, but he forced himself to gather some strength.
Xiaoben ran around and passed by Jiang Ning's house again. Jiang Ning threw out another bone.
Xiaoben excitedly grabbed the bone and continued running wildly.
After four or five times in a row, Uncle Zhang was exhausted.
Xiao Ben turned around and urged Uncle Zhang to continue chasing it.
Uncle Zhang wanted to vomit blood.
Tongtong was puzzled: "Is Xiaoben trying to escape Uncle Zhang?"
In addition to duck wings and duck feet, the duck pot also contains some clams and snails, all of which were freshly caught by Jiang Ning from Qingyu Lake.
His technique of using spiritual power was extremely advanced. The clams and snails did not contain any sand at all. The snails were processed even finer, leaving only edible meat in the shells.
I picked up the snails soaked in spicy soup and took a sip. The spicy and fresh taste was simply extreme.
"It's so delicious!" Tongtong licked his greasy fingers.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Ning began to count the things: "Haha, now you are enjoying your meal."
Tongtong grinned and played dumb: "I was happy to begin with. Who told you not to reply to my message when you went home?"
Jiang Ning: "I'm afraid that after I left, you would be glad that your ears were quiet."
Tongtong turned the tables: "Who said that? I didn't. It was you who spoke out your true feelings!"
"That's too much. You think I'm annoying, don't you? After I leave, let's see who you'll listen to!" She was sulking, but did not stop eating, so her eating efficiency increased.
Jiang Ning picked up two snails and handed them to her.
Tongtong didn't understand, so she pecked at it with her little mouth and quickly sucked it clean.
Jiang Ning reached out, picked up the leftover snails from the table, and put them away solemnly.
Xue Chuchu looked at him, confused.
Jiang Ning almost twisted his mouth: "I heard that if you put a conch next to your ear, you can hear the sound of the sea. When you leave, I will use these two snails you sucked as headphones, as if you were blowing in my ears."
Xue Yuantong said in shame and anger: "Stinky Jiang Ning!"
Xue Chuchu had picked up a snail with chopsticks, but she put it down silently.
'How could he be like this...'
……
The Xue family's trial was issued. Because Jiang Ning acted like a hooligan at the dinner table, he was isolated by Tongtong and Chuchu from that moment on.
With nothing to do, Jiang Ning had to return to his own little house, lying miserably on the sofa, basking in the warm sun and enjoying cream strawberries and pistachios.
Suddenly, a video call request popped up on WeChat.
Jiang Ning clicked the call, and the screen showed the identical faces of Chen Siyu and Chen Siqing. Chen Siyu was full of excitement: "Jiang Ning, my sister and I will set up a stall this afternoon!"
Chen Siqing: "Set up a stall!"
Jiang Ning was amused by the two idiots. He asked, "What are you selling?"
Chen Siyu: "Selling the homemade milk tea that Tongtong taught us!"
Chen Siqing acted cute: "Milk tea!"
"Problem..." Jiang Ning found it funny, what a fool.
Chen Siyu: "Fresh tea leaves, fresh milk, and fresh pearls!"
Chen Siqing continued: "Pearl!"
Seeing Jiang Ning's expression, Chen Siyu smiled: "Jiang Ning, the promotional loudspeaker we recorded is the conversation between my sister and I now. It will definitely attract customers!"
Chen Siqing: "Guest!"
Chen Siyu pinched her sister's mouth with her backhand to stop the tape recorder.
After hearing this, Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said, "Okay, the little trumpet is quite unique."
In addition, they are twins, so if they set up a stall together, they will definitely attract other people's attention.
Having received recognition from the very capable Jiang Ning, the two sisters were extremely excited and hung up the video call with full confidence.
Afterwards, they sent their plan to the group, telling them that they would set up a stall to make milk tea. If any classmates saw them, they should not be surprised but should definitely patronize them, as they guaranteed that the tea would be delicious.
It is a relatively new thing for high school students to earn money independently. Many students in Class 8 currently only spend their parents' money.
Bai Yuxia: "You two are still selling milk tea at your IQ?"
Chen Siyu ignored her.
I swear that after I make money, I will beat Bai Yuxia severely!
After listening to this, security guard Zhang Chi began to comment: "Why choose to sell freshly brewed milk tea? It's not profitable, and you need to prepare a small car and a gas tank."
Chen Siyu said: "I use the cart from my aunt's house, she has a mobile power bank."
Zhang Chi denied: "That won't work either. We can't control costs."
Lu Qiqi: "Zhang Chi, just tell me, what good ideas do you have?"
Yu Wen: "Some people would only say that when it was his turn, he lost everything."
Zhang Chi was unhappy, and he told his plan: "Don't Taobao offer many seven-day free returns now? If you want to sell something, just place an order and then sell it on the street. If you can't sell it, you can return it within seven days without any reason!"
Wang Longlong: “Absolutely.”
……
Chen Siyu and her sister went to set up a stall. Before leaving, they solemnly told Jiang Ning that after they made a fortune, Jiang Ning would have endless milk tea to drink.
Jiang Ning: "If you become rich and powerful, don't forget me."
Jiang Ning basked in the sun in the afternoon, ate strawberries, and persuaded Tongtong and Chuchu to give him a LOL solo or duo queue.
He had nothing to do, so he strolled outside the door. Uncle Zhang no longer chased dogs. He passed the responsibility to his son, Zhang Ruyun, who was responsible for catching Xiaoben.
Xiao Ben ate the nutritious duck bones and ran very fast, so Zhang Ruyun couldn't catch him at all.
Jiang Ning wandered to the entrance of the farmhouse and found Dongdong standing in front of a pile of red bricks, practicing brick-breaking.
Dongdong was first frightened by Jiang Ning today, and then beaten up by Zhang the Butcher. He swore that one day, he would no longer be the weakling who was bullied.
"I want to become stronger, I want to become stronger! Ha! Hey!" He broke the bricks with all his might.
Jiang Ning took a glimpse and walked forward: "What a joke."
He casually chopped down with his palm, "Bang!"
A huge force roared out, and the first brick, the second brick, the third brick...more than twenty bricks were all broken in half.
Jiang Ning withdrew his hand and walked back home slowly.
Only Dongdong was left standing there with a dazed look in his eyes.
On his way home, Jiang Ning received an email from Shao Shuangshuang, informing him that his high-speed rail ticket to Lin City tonight had been booked, along with a funny expression.
Seeing this expression, he guessed that Shao Shuangshuang had arranged another encounter for him.
If Jiang Ning in his previous life could meet a beautiful girl while traveling, he might be excited about it. However, now he has become much immune to it. He didn't even get together with his old classmate Gao Yinghui whom he met a few days ago.
He was just about to put down his phone when Chen Siyu called him via video.
As soon as I opened the video, I saw Chen Siyu with a sad face: "I'm about to cry, Jiang Ning, we were cheated!"
Sister Chen Siqing was addicted to imitating: "You're kidding!"
Jiang Ning was convinced: "Aren't you two setting up stalls? How did you get cheated?"
Chen Siyu: "But we sold a lot of milk tea, but the money has decreased!"
Jiang Ning: “?”
"You two, repeat to me the process of selling milk tea."
Chen Siyu and her sister thought hard and began to reconstruct the process: "As soon as we set up the stall, some children came to ask for milk tea. We sold one cup for 5 yuan, and we sold one cup in no time..."
She continued: "Business was good. A man wearing a hat came to buy milk tea. I remember it very clearly. He gave us a bill for 100 yuan."
Jiang Ning: "Fake money?"
Chen Siyu: "Real money, absolutely real money!"
“Why is the money decreasing?”
Chen Siyu: "He bought two cups of milk tea for 10 yuan, and my sister and I gave him 90 yuan in change."
"A few minutes later, he came back and took out 10 yuan, saying that he had change now and asked us to return the 100 yuan to him. I thought it made sense, so I gave him the 100 yuan."
Chen Siqing: "Give it to him~"
Jiang Ning: “Genius.”
