Chapter 005 is tinged with red clouds
If it were a normal time to encounter such teasing, Chu Shaoyou would definitely ignore Li Rui and leave due to his pride
He now inquires about vegetable prices, naturally mocking himself in a high and mighty manner, treating it as a form of amusement
Of course, Li Rui did not suffer any loss, as he had one hundred jin of vegetables in his trunk
"It's just a little bit, move the vegetables to the trunk, and then I'll give you the money." Li Rui opened the trunk and directed Chu Shaoyou to move the vegetables.
After a busy morning, the two individuals gathered a large basket of various wild herbs
Yunxi felt that Chu Shaoyou was more mature than before. She patted his head, handed the car over to him, and smiled as she walked towards the commercial street
Without time to think, the people in the car smiled and praised Li Rui for his loyalty, which made him feel a bit elated and led him to believe that he truly was a good person
Watching Chu Shaoyou ride away, the lively girl couldn't help but complain to the serene girl beside her, "Sister, you still say that Chu Shaoyou is honest? I see he is full of tricks; when others greet him, he just takes advantage of them while they are buying groceries!"
Seeing Chu Shaoyou busy, Yunxi smiled and approached. Recognizing that Chu Shaoyou was looking for a certain type of wild grass, she also began to search for those wild grasses.
"It's none of your business," the serene girl pouted, turning her head away.
I did not expect Chu Shaoyou to be so enthusiastic; he was not of such a character before!
Helpless, Li Rui had no choice but to swallow the teeth he had lost. "Chu Shaoyou, you must understand that those vegetables I bought are of no use at all; I purely helped you out of consideration for our friendship as classmates"
Seeing the enthusiastic Li Rui, Chu Shaoyou's eyes twinkled as he smiled at Li Rui and said, "Li Rui, are you going to buy some vegetables? You are truly a good person, even after graduating for so long, you still remember to support me"
To my surprise, Chu Shaoyou turned around and began searching for various wild herbs in the nearby wasteland
"Of course, we are classmates, so we should help each other!" Li Rui generously patted his chest, "How many vegetables do you have left? I want them all!"
Li Rui quickly pulled out five hundred yuan from his wallet and handed it to Chu Shaoyou, then he swiftly stepped on the accelerator and drove away
Chu Shaoyou spoke at length with great eloquence
Li Rui shouted that he was sympathizing with Chu Shaoyou, continuing to seek a sense of superiority from him
Chu Shaoyou rode his tricycle home, planning his subsequent affairs as he went along
Using Chuchu as an excuse, Yunxi finally compromised
Thinking of such matters, Chu Shaoyou could not help but smile again
Chu Shaoyou immediately complied, and seeing his swift actions, Li Rui felt an immense sense of satisfaction in his heart
After collecting the money, Chu Shaoyou rode his tricycle home in a swaying manner
Just as Li Rui was immersed in the pleasure of directing Chu Shaoyou, enjoying the adoring glances from the girls in the car, Chu Shaoyou walked over and tapped on the car door
I initially intended to tease Chu Shaoyou, but ended up losing 500 yuan. Had I known, I would not have engaged in such actions. In the future, it would be better to keep my distance from that fellow Chu Shaoyou.
Upon hearing these words, the people in the car looked at Li Rui with even greater respect
Although their attire is identical, it is still possible to distinguish between the two young girls; one is lively, while the other is serene
Yunxi is able to understand Chu Shaoyou's impatient mindset; he is striving for the betterment of his family.
A head with tousled hair poked out from the car, and the person shouted at Chu Shaoyou, "Hey, Chu Shaoyou, how much is the cabbage per pound, haha..."
The serene girl smiled gently and shook her head, casting a reproachful glance at the lively girl, "Do not distort right and wrong like this; it is clear that that person intended to humiliate him, which is why he ended up deceiving that person"
I was once in the same situation, unable to find a job and earn money, exhausting almost every possible means to strive for success
Sister Yunxi, you are right. Let's give it a try first. If that thing proves effective, we will scale up production
Tsk tsk... The lively girl looked at the serene girl's sly smile and said, "Sister, you must honestly tell me, you wouldn't have fallen for that poor boy, would you?"
However, the more Li Rui saw Shaoyou's smile, the more displeased he felt
Five hundred? Li Rui was taken aback; he did not expect that just a few stalks of vegetables could be so expensive
Although the green vegetables priced at 5 yuan per jin are somewhat expensive, they are organically grown by Yunxi herself, and thus the price is naturally a bit higher than the market rate
He initially intended to show off, but unexpectedly became a great person all of a sudden; this is what is known as invisible pretentiousness, truly exhilarating
Exposed, amidst the lively girl's strange laughter, the serene girl's fair cheeks were tinged with a brilliant blush
Li Rui was driving with several men and women, presumably they were planning to have a good time
However, there are two baskets of vegetables on the tricycle, and if they are not sold in time, they will spoil, which would be a pity.
What if those medications are ineffective, and one has spent a large sum of money to lease the land? Wouldn't that result in a significant loss?
The people in the car smiled and said that Li Rui is truly loyal, while Li Rui smiled on the outside but was crying on the inside
Li Rui suddenly felt that Chu Shaoyou was nothing but a smiling tiger, and he had been tricked by him, having gone too far in showing off
On the way home, Chu Shaoyou kept laughing, and his silly appearance left Yunxi both amused and exasperated
In ordinary times, Li Rui often belittled others to elevate himself, and now he has received a lesson in return.
"How are you going to give me the money?" Yunxi did not understand what Chu Shaoyou meant
Chu Shaoyou patted his head; upon hearing Yunxi's words, he realized that he had been too impatient
A mere five hundred yuan is nothing but a drop in the bucket for you, but for me, it represents a month's living expenses. Chu Shaoyou said with a smile, pretending to be pitiful
Such words warmed Yunxi's heart. She accepted the money but did not intend to buy clothes, "There will be plenty of opportunities to spend money in the future, whether I buy clothes or not is of no consequence."
It is hoped that the potion can cultivate delicious vegetables, and then contract a piece of land, hiring several workers to grow the vegetables, while Yunxi does not need to work in the fields and can be responsible for financial tasks
As he was about to return home, Chu Shaoyou stopped in his tracks and took out a stack of money from his pocket, handing it to Yunxi
Hmm, now we... Yunxi originally intended to take Chu Shaoyou home.
However, Chu Shaoyou did not lose heart; he had already confirmed that the medicinal herbs from his memory existed on Earth and were not known to the public.
He hopes that Yunxi can agree to contract a piece of land and then plant various vegetables
Li Rui originally thought that Chu Shaoyou would turn around and leave, allowing him to take the opportunity to mock him with a few words of scorn.
In the future, I will explore other places on my own, as those medicinal herbs await me like a treasure trove
Five hundred yuan is neither too much nor too little, and his money certainly did not come from a strong wind.
Chu Shaoyou nodded with a smile in agreement and expressed his gratitude to Li Rui
This person has definitely had their own agenda from the very beginning, deliberately claiming to be a good person while actually setting themselves up for failure
At this moment, a car approached slowly from a distance, drawing near to Chu Shaoyou
During high school, Chu Shaoyou and Li Rui were not familiar with each other; they were merely classmates.
Li Rui's family has some money, but that does not mean he is wealthy. The car he drives now belongs to his father, and 500 yuan is enough for him to fill up a tank of gas. He originally thought that those vegetables were only worth 50 yuan.
Although Yunxi can earn money by farming and selling vegetables, the income is not substantial, and the work is very labor-intensive
Li Rui is a person who enjoys comparison, relishing the act of putting others down in order to gain a sense of superiority
There are many areas at home that require financial resources, so it is essential to establish a stable source of income as soon as possible
Watching Li Rui drive away, Chu Shaoyou chuckled as he counted the money in his hand
There is something that Chu Shaoyou does not know; not far away, a discreet luxury car is parked, and the people inside the car witnessed everything that just happened
The materials for cultivating vegetables have all been found, but unfortunately, only a few of the medicinal ingredients for making beauty and skincare elixirs have been located
The vegetables cost 5 yuan per jin, totaling 100 jins, which amounts to 500 yuan
Yunxi nodded, but did not agree to Chu Shaoyou's proposal to lease the land. "Shaoyou, let's try it first. If the methods used by ancient people to cultivate vegetables prove effective, we can lease the land later."
It is estimated to be around 100 jin. " Chu Shaoyou made an estimation.
There is no way around it; the vegetables have already been placed in the trunk. I cannot simply say I don't want them, as that would be quite embarrassing
I just went to the construction site, and the foreman settled my wages for me. You and Chuchu haven't bought new clothes in a long time. It will get colder in a while, so you should buy a few sets of clothes.
In the back seat of the luxury car, there are two identical young girls sitting.
It is essential to buy, as there are no new clothes to wear. It is likely that Chuchu will be laughed at by other classmates at school, which will make her feel very inferior. This situation cannot continue.
Chu Shaoyou looked into the car beside him, and the person shouting at him was his high school classmate Li Rui
You must have developed feelings for him; otherwise, why would you have sent someone to arrange a luxury hospital room for him when he was hospitalized recently
