August 21st.

Jiang Ning got up early, had some breakfast with Xue Yuantong, and then rented a mountain bike.

Xue Yuantong was curious: "Isn't it riding a horse?"

Jiang Ning discussed with the owner of the bike shop and asked him to install a comfortable back seat on the mountain bike by adding money.

He patted the soft car seat: "Come up."

"Well, okay." Xue Yuantong adjusted his posture and sat up obediently.

Just like before going to and from school, Jiang Ning took Xue Yuantong and drove in a strange city. They passed through the city and entered the wild road.

The grassland in August is endless green, with green field-like carpets on both sides gradually receding, making it feel like you are in a fairyland.

Jiang Ning followed the road, kept going up, and climbed slowly.

Xue Yuantong was watching from the back row. She remembered the poem she once learned, "The sky is like a dome, covering the surrounding fields."

Under the sky, there was endless silence, as if they were the only ones left, and there seemed to be a big river flowing in the distance.

Xue Yuantong realized firsthand the insignificance of human beings.

Suddenly, a deep and powerful cry came from the sky.

Xue Yuantong looked up and saw an eagle spreading its wings, circling and soaring.

"Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning, look, what a big eagle!" she exclaimed.

She clearly saw that the eagle's wings were not flapping at all, but kept flying in the sky.

Jiang Ning: "Do you want to fly?"

Xue Yuantong said without thinking, "Of course I do."

"Hold tight." Jiang Ning said, and he shook the handlebars, drifting 180 degrees on the spot, with the front of the car facing downwards.

Ahead is a long road with an altitude difference of 1,000 meters.

Xue Yuantong stretched his head out from behind him and looked down. The eastern sun shone on the hillside, the river flowed through the depths of the grassland, and forests and river valleys dotted the grassland.

Jiang Ning stepped on the pedal, and the mountain bike drove down the road under the influence of gravity.

Jiang Ning pedaled faster and faster, Xue Yuantong hugged him tightly, and the green people on both sides quickly retreated, as fast as if they were flying.

"Chirp~chirp~" There was another sound in the sky above our heads.

Xue Yuantong raised his head again. In the clear blue sky, the eagle spread its wings and stood still. It turned out that it was not stationary, but the mountain bike was traveling too fast, actually at the same speed as the eagle flying.

Under the howling wind, Xue Yuantong hid her little face behind Jiang Ning, and her voice rang out from the wind:

"Jiang Ning, overtake it quickly, overtake it quickly!"

Just at the curve ahead, the mountain bike rushed to the edge in an instant with the help of the downhill force, and Xue Yuantong's heart almost jumped out of his chest.

Jiang Ning held the handlebars and exerted a strong force, forcing the mountain bike to bend.

The car drew a thrilling arc and passed through the curve perfectly. The road going down became even steeper, and the car's speed soared again.

The sheep on the grassland disappeared in a flash, and the shepherd froze in shock.

The eagle in the sky follows you all the way.

Jiang Ning raised his hand, and the flying height of the eagle suddenly dropped, and it actually flew this way.

Originally, Xue Yuantong was a little happy when he saw the eagle getting closer to them.

But as the eagle got closer and closer, its appearance was exposed, its wingspan was nearly two meters, and it had a pair of claws like iron hooks. She gradually became afraid.

She did not forget that the eagle is a large raptor carnivore. It is a top predator in the biological chain, as famous as lions and tigers, and has no natural enemies.

"Jiang Ning Jiang Ning!" she reminded.

"Don't panic." Jiang Ning calmly stopped the mountain bike.

Xue Yuantong quickly got out of the car, and Jiang Ning stopped the bike and faced the eagle spreading its wings in the sky.

When the eagle passed overhead, a stream of air passed by.

Jiang Ning stretched out his hands, as if searching for something from a bag, grabbed the eagle's claws, pulled it casually, and grabbed the eagle from the sky.

The eagle fluttered twice, closed its wings in fear, and did not dare to move. At that moment, it almost thought it was dead.

Xue Yuantong was surprised and happy. She came forward and took a closer look.

The eagle has dark brown feathers and is very strong and graceful, especially the curve of its beak, which is very sharp.

What surprised Xue Yuantong the most was its eyes, which were filled with the majesty of a king.

She almost thought she was dreaming: "Is it sick?"

Otherwise, how could the mighty air overlord be caught by Jiang Ning?

Jiang Ning stretched out her fingers and flicked the eagle's head and fed her a pill. The eagle moved its beak, raised its head and swallowed it.

Xue Yuantong plucked up the courage, reached out and touched it, smiling happily.

The poor air overlord was played with by a little girl.

…

On the night of the 21st, the guest house.

Xue Yuantong was packing his luggage. Jiang Ning was sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window, admiring the grassland scenery in the distance. He asked:

"Aren't you looking at the sea?"

I remember that last year, Xue Yuantong wanted to see the sea. Before setting off this time, her list of plans also included seeing the sea.

They have been traveling for the past month. They climbed mountains, swam in lakes, and entered the prairie, but they never saw the sea.

"Don't look at it." Xue Yuantong folded his clothes.

"Oh, aren't you sorry?" Jiang Ning said, the remaining time was actually enough to see the sea.

Xue Yuantong smiled: "It's good to have regrets!"

She continued: "Besides, Chu Chu hasn't seen the sea yet. I want to wait until the summer vacation of my senior year of high school to go out with her!"

…

22nd.

Train from Taishi to Yuzhou.

Zhang Chi was holding a snakeskin bag and standing at the junction of the train carriages. His eyes filled the seats and he was cursing in his heart.

The reason why Zhang Chi appeared on the train was not because he went mountain climbing.

But, some time ago, Zhang Chi got tired of carrying cement.

Think of him as an educated student who knew astronomy and geography, but he could only earn money by carrying cement. The repetitive and boring work deeply hurt his arrogant heart.

Of course, the main reason is that you can't make money carrying cement.

Zhang Chi was jealous of the cement factory owner because he was able to drive a BMW at a young age, so he cursed him.

But Zhang Chi wants to be that kind of person.

He knew that even if he carried cement all his life, he would not be able to become that kind of person.

Zhang Chi has never been a conservative person. When Shan Kaiquan and Yu Wen expressed their thoughts on climbing Mount Tai in the group, Zhang Chi quickly grasped the business opportunity.

A bucket of instant noodles for 15 yuan!

If he could sell instant noodles on Mount Taishan, wouldn't he make a lot of money?

That night, Zhang Chi bought a ticket to Mount Tai and purchased 50 barrels of instant noodles for less than two yuan a barrel.

Ideally, if a barrel sells for 15 yuan, the profit is more than 13 yuan, and 50 barrels is a profit of 600 to 700 yuan!

It’s simply a no-cost deal. As for the tickets to Mount Tai?

Zhang Chi looks like the person who bought the ticket? He just smuggled across to Mount Tai.

Then he used a mortal body to transport 50 barrels of instant noodles up the mountain in snakeskin bags.

As a result, when they got to the mountain, Zhang Chi discovered that bubble noodles require boiling water!

He didn't boil water!

The water on Mount Tai is sold more expensive than usual!

Then Zhang Chi remembered Yan Tianpeng, so he contacted Yan Tianpeng, bought him a ticket to Mount Tai, and asked him to bring several large thermos bottles of boiled water up the mountain. Yan Tianpeng lived up to expectations.

After carrying four thermos bottles in one breath, two of them were broken on the way up the mountain. Zhang Chi struggled to sell a few barrels of instant noodles. After thinking about it carefully, the two of them shared the profit. Why didn't they make as much as carrying cement, and they were even more tired!

Zhang Chi chatted privately with Shan Kaiquan and learned about Jiang Ning's glorious deeds of eating hot pot on the mountain that day.

That day, Zhang Chi lowered his head and stared at the steamed buns brought up from the mountain, feeling extremely frustrated.

But when inspiration strikes, it's often when you're frustrated.

He suddenly thought of a new product - self-heating hot pot.
