By noon, there were already three unlucky fish in Li Ming's bucket, and there was also a bucket of water in Old Man Zhang's bucket. It can't be said that the old man didn't gain anything, but he still gained a bucket of water.
"I'm going to eat at a stall today. What do you want to eat, old man?"
Li Ming packed up the things and put them aside, walked to Old Man Zhang and asked.
Old man Zhang didn't even raise his head, "Xiao Li, go buy some food and come back."
"Don't delay my fishing."
"Tsk, Old Man Zhang is quite arrogant. Brother Li, buy one for me and Old Man Zhang will pay for it, thank you!"
Comrade Li Ming has no idea how to write the word "face". In life, he mainly has a thick skin. Besides, I eat so little now, what if I eat a big dog meal?
There’s nothing wrong with it, it’s appropriate both emotionally and rationally!
Secretary Li didn't refute. He was used to it and walked out minding his own business.
Li Ming found a big tree suitable to lean on, leaned against it, and refilled himself a cigarette.
"It's a great life! If I don't have to worry about anything, I'd just like to have a wife!"
When Old Man Zhang heard Li Ming's words, he said, "You're so young. Why weren't you happy when I introduced my granddaughter to you last time?"
"What you have is a thousand pieces of gold, and what I have is mud and tiles. We can't live together!"
"I guess I can't afford it~" Little Bear spread his hands, Li Ming's limited edition.
Old Man Zhang shook his head, "That's not true. My granddaughter is not so spoiled."
"Yes, yes, your granddaughter is the best in the world~~~"
Li Mingcai was too lazy to confront this damn old man. Wouldn't it be more comfortable to bask in the sun now than to chat with the old man?
"But, what kind of wife do you want to marry?" Old Man Zhang asked with a shy face and curiosity.
"The eyebrows are like green feathers, the muscles are like white snow, the waist is like a bunch of plain cloth, and the teeth are like shells."
"I'm not asking too much, Old Man Zhang."
Old Man Zhang spat at this shameless person, "If you plan to choose a fairy daughter, just say it directly and don't beat around the bush."
"Haha, old man Zhang, you are really interesting. You even know about fairies!"
"piss off!"
"Anyway, I have to find a beautiful wife with a good figure. This is the best."
Comrade Li Ming hopes that his future wife will be very good, so that his time travel will not be in vain.
"You kid, go ahead and dream about your spring and autumn dreams. It's not as realistic as my old man's plan to catch a 20-pound fish."
After the old man complained, he returned to his place and stared at the fishing rod in a daze.
Not long after, Secretary Li came back with lunch, left one portion each for Li Ming and Old Man Zhang, and took the rest to find his friends.
After eating, Li Ming stayed by the river for a while, gave the fish he caught today to Old Man Zhang, and then walked to Bada Hutong in a relaxed manner.
He planned to contact his own Xiong Daxiong Er and tell them something. Then he would go to the black market at night with Yi Zhonghai's face to sell some things and get familiar with them. After all, there were a lot of things stored in the breeding space. , it’s time to clean up.
Keep enough food for your family for a year, and the rest can be dispersed abroad and exchanged for some small yellow croakers, antiques, etc. to replenish your small coffers.
Bada Hutong, Wang Dawang's two families.
Li Ming was respectfully invited in by the Wang brothers, and the three of them sat down around the stone table in the courtyard.
"Brother Li, do you have any arrangements?" Wang Da was extremely excited because he felt that he could be useful. As for what his younger brother Wang Er thought, it didn't matter.
"Well, there must be some. I need your brothers to help me go to the black market to find out the current price of food."
Wang Da and Wang Er were shocked. Although the two of them were street gangsters, they now knew that food on the market was hard to buy, but the man in front of them wanted them to inquire about the price of food. What did he mean?
"I have a batch of food that needs to be shipped, do you understand?"
"Then, why doesn't Brother Li work for the steel rolling mill?" Wang Er didn't understand, so he spoke.
Wang Da slapped his brother on the head, "Brother Li will do whatever he says. Where did you get all this nonsense!"
"Your brother is right. If you two manage this matter well, I will benefit you."
"The first benefit is that you can participate in my grain business. As long as it is done well, money is not an issue."
"But if you don't do it well, or you want to sell me, it doesn't matter, but you will have to bear the consequences yourself."
After Li Ming finished speaking, he pinched a stone from the space and threw it at a tree branch in front of the main house. The tree branch, which was as thick as a baby's arm, broke with a "click".
The Wang brothers were stunned for a moment, and then cold sweat began to cover their backs.
"Pistols are easy to use, but they make noise. My hand doesn't make any sound. To a certain extent, it's easier to use than a pistol."
Li Ming looked at the two of them with a smile, "Do you think what I said is right?"
Wang Da Wang Er nodded stiffly, "Yes, yes, you are right."
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you two brothers. I'm coming over the weekend and need to know some general information. Is that okay?"
"no problem!"
"do not worry!"
The two of them have lived for more than 20 years, and they have never seen such a ruthless person. Not only does he have a gun, but his skills are also outstanding. Although the two brothers knew that Li Ming was targeting them, they could also understand it as a threat. , but this threat is scary!
The two brothers asked themselves that the parts on their bodies were at most as hard as that tree branch. They really couldn't hold it with this hand!
"Don't worry, if you do your job well, I will benefit from you."
"After all, I need someone to run errands for me, right?"
Li Ming smiled and patted the brothers on the shoulders, then turned and left the yard.
After Li Ming left, Wang Er pointed to the tree branches on the ground with a trembling voice and asked, "Brother, this thing won't hit us two brothers, will it?"
Wang Da also shivered and stuffed a cigarette into his mouth, "Probably not. If we work honestly, it should be fine."
"Then when are we going to inquire?"
"When? Let's go today. Didn't you hear that the evil star will know the news this weekend?"
"We brothers will find out as soon as possible. The more complete the inquiry, the better."
"Okay, let's go there tonight."
"That's right, try to run through the black market in Sijiu City in the next few days. You go and tear off two pieces of cloth. We will show our faces later."
"Okay brother, I'll go right away."
Wang Er said these words and ran towards the house. When passing by a tree branch, he squatted down and took a good look.

Li Ming didn't care what the brothers discussed, as long as they could complete the task. Besides, he also had to go to the black market to inquire, and he could further determine the true price of food now, insurance!
