After lunch, everyone dispersed, some went out to hang out, some played cards, and fully enjoyed the collective leisure time.
Ou Junxing took a few boys to go fishing. He said he would give everyone a whole fish dinner in the evening.
Chen Sisi went to the boss to negotiate the price, and after a while she brought a price list to show Li Mo.
Li Mo sat lazily on the deck chair in the courtyard. He wanted to take a nap in the sun for a while, but when he saw the price list, he became uneasy.
Damn, what is a price hike?
This is just raising the price from the ground up!
Including the ingredients provided by this farmhouse at noon, each item is listed carefully.
I cooked the food myself, but the boss sold it for the price of the restaurant’s finished dishes!
This fucking 40-meter-long sword is so powerful!
Li Mo wiped away his sweat, gritted his teeth and signed the price list.
"I'll leave it here for now, and we'll settle the bill together before we leave tomorrow."
"Okay boss, I will make a counter-offer before I leave tomorrow."
Chen Sisi folded the price list and put it in her pocket. She was about to turn around and go shopping in the town with Ke Xia and the others, but was stopped by Li Mo again.
"Sisi, when you go back tomorrow, I will arrange a task for you. It's time to test your abilities."
"What kind of mission, boss?"
Li Mo sat on the recliner, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth:
"Before I came here this morning, didn't I go to the back street of the Communication University's female dormitory building to see a milk tea shop that was to be transferred?"
"You should know that store. The location is really good, but the proprietress of the store broke up with her boyfriend and is in a bad mood."
"So her price is a bit high. I'm going to let you try it out with her again."
After hearing this, Chen Sisi thought for a while and said:
"Boss, are you going to let me have a heart-to-heart talk with her as a woman and build a closer relationship first?"
"clever!"
Li Mo nodded appreciatively, looked at Chen Sisi and said:
"You go and make purchases as a customer. Don't talk about the store first. Just sit there and chat with her."
"I estimate that with your ability, you can get familiar with her in three or four days. Then we can gradually talk about transferring the store."
Chen Sisi thought for a few seconds, nodded and said:
"Okay boss, I'll think about this carefully when I get back."
Li Mo smiled and patted Chen Sisi on the shoulder:
"Well, after this matter is settled, you can choose someone in your group who can take your place, and you can be my secretary."
When Chen Sisi heard this, her eyes lit up:
"Okay boss! Don't worry, I will definitely take care of this matter within a week."
Chen Sisi knew that Li Mo could choose her as his secretary, which was the greatest affirmation of his ability.
Throughout the afternoon, Li Mo and Chu Fuling didn't go anywhere, just squinting in the sun in the yard.
The two of them sat on the lounge chairs next to each other and squinted for a while and chatted.
"Old Mo, do you think that when we grow old, we will lie down together and bask in the sun as comfortably as we do now?"
Li Mo chuckled, raised his butt and changed his position:
"Then you first need to have such a big private yard, otherwise you will have to live in a nursing home."
"There is a yard. My yard is bigger than this."
"..."
Li Mo squinted at Chu Fuling and said seriously:
"Chu Fuling, you are not allowed to visit Versailles in front of me in the future. Your current home belongs to your father, and I will not go there."
Chu Fuling also narrowed her eyes and said coldly:
"Okay, then I will buy you a house with a yard."
Hearing this, Li Mo became more serious:
"Chu Fuling, I'm still at the age of struggle. If you tell me this, then I'm still struggling."
"Although as your best friend, it's not impossible for you to give me a villa, but you can't say this now."
"If I still accomplish nothing when I'm in my forties, I will definitely accept it happily, but don't break my Taoist heart now."
When Chu Fuling heard this, she nodded obediently without saying anything else:
"Okay, then I'll wait until you are forty before we talk."
"..."
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Ou Junxing and Dong Zihao came back with fishing rods, looking frustrated.
They talked about a fish feast, but it turned out that there were only a few small shrimps in the bucket Ou Junxing was carrying, which Dong Zihao caught with a fishing net.
Li Mo glanced at Ou Junxing sarcastically and patted his forehead.
Yes, I have to spend the money on seafood in the evening to buy the so-called green ingredients in the countryside.
After all the fussing, by the time all the dishes were served, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
Everyone sat together and shared their experiences in the afternoon.
As we chatted, the topic naturally turned to Yuanyang Bridge.
"Hey, don't tell me, there are so many people on the Yuanyang Bridge. It's wobbly when I step on it. I'm really worried about crossing it."
"Yes, but the two rows of copper locks hanging on it look really spectacular."
"By the way, boss, didn't you and the wife of the boss also go to the Yuanyang Bridge? You must have hung up the copper locks, right?"
Hearing this, Chu Fuling put down her chopsticks and raised her head and said:
"The Yuanyang Bridge collapsed, we went to the Good Friends Bridge."
"????"
When everyone heard this, they were surprised:
"The Yuanyang Bridge collapsed? Where is the Good Friends Bridge?"
"ah!"
Li Mo suddenly shouted, startling everyone.
"Boss, what's wrong with you? Did you eat a stone?"
Li Mo coughed and started to make nonsense:
"I suddenly remembered that when I was walking around town in the morning, I heard someone say that there is a valley on the other side of the lake, and colorful stones can be picked up in it."
"They say that people who are lucky enough to pick up colorful stones will have a lifetime of good luck, and the people around them will also get rich."
"Anyone of you who have ideas can try your luck tomorrow morning. It's not only for your own good, but it can also bring good luck to the company."
When everyone heard this, they all became interested, and the conversation began to revolve around anecdotes.
Li Mo happily continued to eat the food.
The dishes cooked by Ou Junxing were very spicy, which made Chu Fuling's face turn red.
She took off her thin coat and handed it to Li Mo, saying:
"Old Mo, let's go to the valley to pick up colorful stones tomorrow morning."
Li Mo shook his head and said calmly:
"We won't go."
"You are a rich woman, you are beautiful, and you are lucky enough to know me as your best friend. You can't be too greedy."
.........
At the same time, on the other side, Yun Mengyao and Guan Yingyi were sitting in a coffee shop on the commercial street chatting.
Yun Mengyao looked worried, looked at Guan Yingyi sitting opposite and said:
"Yingbao, what should I do, what should I do, something happened to me!"
"What happened to you?"
Guan Yingyi was a little stunned. This was the first time she saw this expression on Yun Mengyao's face.
Yun Mengyao held the coffee spoon and stirred the coffee in the cup, her eyes also showed ripples one after another, and she stopped talking:
"I......"
"I've become what you call an idiot!"
