"Does Brother Chen have any treasures?" Shang Huan couldn't help but feel excited.
“He hasn’t seen the item yet, but he already has the idea of selling it.” Mr. Hao said with a smile.
"It's not easy." Shang Huan also laughed.
"This guy is too honest. He just farmed when the House of Commons asked him to. He didn't even think about himself." Old Hao sighed.
"I'll bring him here tomorrow. You can't make a random offer." Old Hao stared at Shang Huan and said.
"Don't worry, Mr. Hao, I will never cheat him!" Shang Huan assured sincerely.
"You misunderstood." Old Hao shook his head and said seriously, "What I meant is that I will cheat you as much as I can!"
Shang Huan: “…”
No, why are you, old man, darker than me?
"Uncle Hao, isn't business meant to be done for the long term?" Shang Huan was puzzled. Didn't he advise him like this before?
Mr. Hao sighed: "This young man is an honest man."
You are an honest person, but you still want to cheat others?
"This honest man may only do this one-time deal." Mr. Hao said helplessly.
"Believe it or not, he exchanged the white jade money for the secret method of unity."
"He will definitely turn a deaf ear to what's happening outside and stay on his ten acres of land every day to farm and practice martial arts."
"How can you do business with him?" Mr. Hao looked helpless.
"I don't want to cheat him, but he is too honest."
Shang Huan: “…”
An honest person eats your rice? You are bullying him like this!
Shang Huan said with a sad face: "I'll listen to you!"
Who can resist making a little extra money?
In the uneven yellow rice field, Chen Mu, who was lying in mid-air and throwing fasting pills into his mouth like sugar beans, said: "..."
Should honest people be cheated by you?
Chen Mu felt extremely aggrieved.
Old Hao, Old Hao, I thought you were a real person. But you have a dark heart!
Can this world ever be better? Why do I always encounter such terrible bad people everywhere?
Chen Mu was filled with grief and anger.
I was just about to open my heart and make a serious friend, but you turned around and tried to trick me.
"Then don't blame me!" Chen Mu thought viciously.
puff!
After further improvement, the 3.0 version of the magic smoke with the addition of nightshade grass quickly evaporates and diffuses in the room.
"Uncle Hao, you have worked hard on this. After it's done, you will definitely get the commission." Shang Huan stretched out his index finger and made a serious promise.
Mr. Hao was pleasantly surprised: "You are still willing to give me 20%. Great!"
Shang Huan's face changed: "Uncle Hao, look carefully, it's 10%. You can't raise the price out of thin air!"
Mr. Hao was immediately displeased: "Look for yourself, how many fingers did you extend?"
Shang Huan: "Isn't this fucking obvious... Oh my god, how come there are three of them?"
The two men looked at each other in bewilderment, and suddenly they felt their hands and feet go limp, their eyes rolled back, and they fell to the ground with a thump.
A cloud of black smoke emerged in the room, slowly spread around, and filled the entire room in the blink of an eye.
A bag of yellow rice placed in the corner, the dried exotic animal meat hanging on the beam, a string of white jade coins hidden in the cracks in the wall, and the valuables on Hao Laoshanghuan's body, all disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Outside the courtyard, Chen Mu turned his back to the door with a sad face.
"I don't mean any harm to anyone, but they want to cheat me."
"I don't want to." Chen Mu looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with deep disappointment.
"I was working the farm honestly, but you were secretly plotting to cheat me."
"Too deceiving!"
"In that case, I will teach you a lesson!"
"Let me show you how dangerous the world is!"
……
The next morning, Mr. Hao came to Chen Mu's place with a gloomy face.
Looking at Chen Mu who was slowly patrolling the yellow rice field and bending down to pull weeds from time to time, Mr. Hao tried hard to control his facial expression.
"I hope Brother Chen can come up with something good."
"Hurry up and make up for last night's losses."
"Otherwise, we will have to live a very tight life this year."
He subconsciously pulled out his pipe, but finally resisted the urge to light it.
"Save it."
Mr. Hao calmed himself down and walked slowly into the fields.
"Brother Chen, the matter has been settled. Let's go meet him tonight."
"If you want to sell something, you can prepare it in advance."
Chen Mu smiled brightly: "I thought about it carefully, and I think what Mr. Hao said makes sense."
What do you mean? What I said makes sense.
Mr. Hao was a little confused.
"I'm new here, so I'd better settle down for half a year or a year first."
Don't do that! Mr. Hao was anxious. If you are stable, I can't be stable.
He tried his best to suppress his anxiety, coughed, and said in a gentle manner: "But if you don't exchange it for some white jade money, you will be in debt this year."
Chen Mu looked honest and simple: "It's okay, didn't Mr. Hao say that I have a good talent for farming?"
Chen Mu smiled: "Mr. Hao, I believe you!"
Mr. Hao: “…” Can you please not believe me?
After all the twists and turns, the commission is gone again?
Hey!
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 187 Alien Beasts
In the yellow rice field, Chen Mu looked at Mr. Hao's slightly embarrassed back and couldn't help but sigh.
"I don't want to."
Chen Mu shook his head: "There is no such thing as good intentions without reason."
"This world is so hopeless..."
Looking at the things looted from the Five Ghosts Bag, Chen Mu sighed again.
The loss of these things might be a heavy blow to Mr. Hao and Shang Huan.
It may cause them to go without food, be unable to pay grain, and fail in their training.
"But if we don't teach them a lesson, they will become even more aggressive in the future. What if they encounter tough guys?"
"What you lose at that time might not be your property, but your life!"
Chen Musong said in one breath: "I'm doing this for their own good!"
"I hope you can be a real person who is kind to others!"
Chen Mu suddenly felt happy when he thought that he might have created two good people in this world.
Wait until Old Hao's figure disappears over the hill.
Chen Mu stopped pretending to weed.
He straightened up and saw a large cloud of black smoke spreading across the fields.
Chen Mu walked leisurely in the middle of the yellow rice field. With just a casual stroll, all the weeds disappeared.
"It's not that difficult to grow yellow sprout rice, right?" Chen Mu nodded with satisfaction.
According to his estimation, as long as they could make it until the autumn harvest, they would definitely be able to achieve the grain delivery target.
“Go home and cook a big meal!”
……
On the east side of the stone courtyard, the abandoned vegetable field was leveled by Chen Mu and paved with bluestone floors.
Chen Mu built a wooden shed out of habit, using round logs as pillars and wooden boards as the roof.
Under the wooden shed, rocking chairs and coffee tables are neatly arranged.
After dinner, Chen Mu nestled comfortably in the rocking chair.
Black smoke filled the air and objects appeared out of thin air.
"Half a bag of yellow sprout rice can only last for five or six days." Chen Mu curled his lips.
"This is wind-dried meat of a strange beast with twisted muscles. I don't know what the beast looks like. It looks a bit weird." Chen Mu pressed the bacon and nodded with satisfaction.
"Wash it out and try frying some bacon tonight."
Then he took out three small cloth bags and turned them over on the low table.
