This was when Fatty was chatting with Xiao Chen. He heard Xiao Chen talk about chewing gum accidentally. He thought this thing was quite interesting, so he made it himself based on Xiao Chen's description.
In fact, the manufacturing process of chewing gum is also very simple. You only need to mix a few things such as gum, mint, white sugar, etc. together in proportion, dry them, and then cut them into small pieces.
For a fat man who is ingenious and good at making medicines, it is a piece of cake.
After Xiao Chen tasted it, he said it was very good, almost like real chewing gum.
But the fat man was very unhappy with the name chewing gum. What is chewing gum?
Too girly, it would be more appropriate to call it mouth glue...
Just tell me how shocked Xiao Chen was when he heard it!
The fat man was so shocked that he almost burst out laughing, but he still didn’t know that he was laughing his ass off?
But Fatty couldn't object even if he insisted on calling the gum Xiao Chen. After all, he made it himself and had the right to name it.
Once oral gum came out, it was loved by many girls, and men like Ye Baiqing also liked it very much...
Only Ling'er didn't like it because she couldn't help but think of it as candy. She would swallow it after chewing it for a few times. It got stuck several times and she never wanted to eat it again.
Liu Xiangqin, Ye Baiqing and others all thought that this could be mass-produced, but Xiao Chen did not agree.
Once this thing is launched, children will definitely like it, but the production process of this so-called mouth glue is not perfect yet. It can easily stick to the throat and even adults can get stuck, so it is even more dangerous for children!
Secondly, this stuff is not hygienic and will damage the environment. For example, Singapore now strictly prohibits the production and import of chewing gum.
Therefore, Xiao Chen feels that this kind of thing is harmful and useless and should not be promoted...
Just the name "mouth glue" is very inappropriate!
"Woe to you who laugh, for you will mourn and cry! Woe to you who are full, for you will be hungry!" A hunched-over, wrinkled old Western woman walked up to Xiao Chen and said to him A very unlucky English saying.
It would be fine if Xiao Chen couldn't understand, but he could understand it and couldn't help but said, "Old man, I didn't offend you, why did you curse me?"
"I'm just reminding you...but you look like a good person." The old woman suddenly stretched out her skinny eagle-like claws, grabbed Xiao Chen's hand, and said in jerky Chinese dialect, "I can Can I help you with your divination?"
Before Xiao Chen could say anything, the box seller came over with a bowl of broth, "Why are you, an old woman, here again? If I hadn't looked at your age, I would have punched you away! I'll give you a bowl of soup." Go farther away and drink, don’t affect my business...remember to return the bowl!”
Although the boss had a harsh tone, he was obviously very kind-hearted. Judging from his tone, it was not the first time that this old woman came to his place to eat for free.
"It's okay, just eat here. There is a shed here to protect you from the wind." Xiao Chen said.
"Guest, please don't look at her pitifully, she's so annoying!" the boss said, "If you catch someone, you have to tell their fortune. How can she, a poor old foreign woman, tell fortunes or tell fortunes? She's just lying. silver."
"It's okay. We're here to have fun anyway. We might as well ask this mother-in-law to teach us a lesson later," Xiao Chen said.
"I think it's okay. Foreign monks can chant sutras, and Western mother-in-laws can tell fortunes." The fat man said with a smile, "Just ask my mother-in-law to help me calculate whether I will have any windfall luck? If I do, I will definitely reward you later. ."
The old woman didn't mind the heat, so she drank up all the broth in a few big mouthfuls, returned the bowl to the boss, took out a pile of dirty playing cards from her arms and placed it on the table.
"What is this?" Did Xiao Chenxin say fortune telling?
Why did you take out a deck of cards and want to play Landlord with us?
"These are Tarot cards for divination." Valova said softly, "It turns out that this old lady is from Zigan."
The Zigan people that Valova is talking about are actually Gypsies. Gypsies are a very unique ethnic group. They live in no fixed places and wander around. They can be found almost all over the world, but their reputation is not very good.
Because they do not farm, produce, do business or work, they just make a living by begging, stealing, and defrauding... Among them, divination is one of the tricks they are best at.
Of course, this is just a rumor. There must be good people and bad people among Gypsies. Discrimination against any ethnic group is narrow-minded and unfair. Even Japan has good people, right?
"Ladies first, please come first, Valova?" Xiao Chen is now proficient in Russian, so he knows that the Zigan people are Gypsies.
But he didn't care. He had no prejudice against any ethnic group, and he didn't care whether the old gypsy woman was using tarot cards to deceive people. He just wanted to give her some money to buy food.
If you give it directly, it would be a bit disrespectful, as if you are treating the old lady as a beggar...
"Waiting, let's ask for a price first." Fatty has experience. If you don't negotiate the price first, if this old woman opens her mouth like a lion later, we will be passive.
"Well, old lady, how much does it cost for all four of us?" Xiao Chen asked. "You can just give me anything." The old woman said, "I mean, anything is fine."
"Anything is fine?" The fat man sounded strange. "Then can he give you a hair?"
"Okay." The old woman said, "Because you are a very kind person, so I will treat your gift as the most precious gift in the world and keep it well."
"Uh..." The fat man had no problem. He thought to himself that this old woman might not be a liar, but a lunatic or a fool. She was indeed quite pitiful.
"Please ask this distinguished lady to choose a card. Please be careful. Your destiny is here." The old woman's words sounded more like a fortune teller's cliché.
"Then this is it." Valova chose one and opened it without hesitation. But what I saw on the card was a naked woman, kneeling on one knee next to a pool, holding a kettle in one hand, and pouring the water into the pool and on the shore.
There are seven small white stars and a huge yellow gold star above her head.
"This is the star card, and you are a pure and selfless person with a true self. You are nurturing your land and watering your love, or you are treating them at the cost of your life... You have to Think carefully, is it worth doing this?" The old woman explained while looking at the cards.
"Haha, thank you, grandma, what you said is great, but you only live once, so I only decide what I want to do, and I will never think about whether it is worth it, and I will never regret it." Valova said.
"Well, God bless you dear," the old woman said, taking her cards back.
"Old lady, is this all over?" said the fat man on the side, "You haven't told her her fortune yet."
