Chapter 32: Dry Land and Barren Years (3)
After Qin Huai returned home, he went straight to his room, locked the door, and clicked on the game system to check the titles he had obtained.
[Affirmation from the Neighborhood]: As a dim sum chef that is widely praised in the entire neighborhood, your shop is more likely to become the first choice for breakfast/desserts for surrounding residents. You are Chef Xiao Qin who is well-known among the neighbors.
Master Xiao Qin himself:...
This title... seems to be a little more useless than [Chen Huihong's affirmation]. After getting Chen Huihong's affirmation, you can explore some secrets and hear some gossip. Moreover, Chen Huihong is really good at spending money. He has to come to the cafeteria every afternoon to check it out.
Do you have any unsold dim sum, wrap it up and take it to the neighborhood committee to wrap it up for big customers?
The effect of [Neighborhood's Affirmation] seems to be similar to Chen Huihong's banknote ability, but this game does not limit the number of titles that can be worn, so there is no loss in wearing them.
Qin Huai moved his fingers, put on the title decisively, and then clicked on the main mission.
As expected by Qin Huai, the main mission this time was still far ahead in the series.
Main mission:
1. [Far Ahead 2]: As a qualified protagonist, it is your basic quality to be far ahead of your peers after opening. Please beat 75% of the restaurants in your area in terms of reputation, and the negative review rate does not exceed 2% to become a
A well-deserved praise store.
Mission reward: Popularity Drainage +500, [a dream of ???] (choice: yes/no)
Qin Huai:?
???Who?
There are non-human creatures in this world called [???]?!
Can this world still get better?
After studying the mission rewards and the newly obtained main mission, Qin Huai finally turned his attention to [Chen Huihong’s Dream].
This is the mission reward he has always wanted to get, and this period of crazy making buckwheat steamed buns is also for this dream.
During this period, Qin Huai briefly tested Chen Huihong, asking her if she liked reading Liaozhai, whether she read fairy tales on weekdays, and what she thought about reincarnation in the past and present lives.
As a result, Chen Huihong thought that Qin Huai had encountered the same new type of scam as her brother, in which sins from the past life were destined to redeem sins in this life, so she persuaded Qin Huai for three or four days to not believe in this kind of thing, and not to fall into the trap of feudal superstition at a young age.
return route.
It's not easy to make some money these days, so there's no need to spend 200,000 on rituals to atone for your past life.
If Qin Huai hadn't repeatedly promised that he would never believe such a thing, Chen Huihong would have arrested her unlucky brother and told him the whole story of being defrauded of 200,000 yuan.
The cost of this trial was that Qin Huai was the only one in the Yunzhong Canteen who knew that Chen Huihong’s younger brother had been defrauded of 200,000 yuan because of feudal superstition. After Chen Huihong’s careful persuasion for several days, the entire canteen, including the neighborhood committee, and even the property management staff knew that there was a problem.
Qian's big boss was also deceived, and the way he was deceived was very unusual.
Since you can't find out through testing, let's see if dreams can give you some clues.
Qin Huai clicked on [Chen Huihong’s Dream] and chose Yes.
[Dream loading——]
.
Different from the deathly silence when he entered the dreamland for the first time, this time Qin Huai heard noisy sounds before he opened his eyes.
"What do you think of this? He's 11 years old, tall, has good teeth, and can work. It's cheaper to buy it for grinding than a donkey. It only costs an ocean, and I'm giving this little one as a gift."
"Go, go, what kind of work can a skinny person do? I think this little one is about to die. If I buy it back, I have to find a shabby straw mat to wrap it up. I still want a piece of the ocean to go to."
"How about you take a look at this again? This is really good, but the price is a bit..."
When Qin Huai opened his eyes, what he saw was Ren Yazi, who was bargaining with the guests not far away.
Qin Huai:?
Did he enter some kind of illegal human trafficking market?
Qin Huai turned around and looked around, and found that it was no longer the barren land that was thousands of miles away. The air might still be hot and the place was very barren, but he could see the withered grass that had fallen on the ground, and the withered grass was mixed with dots of green. It could be vaguely seen in the distance.
Go to houses and small pieces of farmland, which look like they are inhabited.
Qin Huai looked to the left. Chen Huihong was still wearing the tattered clothes. The clothes were covered with a thick layer of dirt and were almost caked with dirt. There was an unknown amount of straw stuffed in the clothes. The whole person looked very bulging and strong.
As for Hui Niang, although she is also unkempt, she looks a little cleaner than Chen Huihong. She is holding a chipped clay jar in her hand and a few wood chips in her arms. She is still thin and small.
Next to Hui Niang and Chen Huihong, there were seven or eight children whose clothes were in tatters and were almost half naked. They all looked like boys. They were either sitting lifelessly or lying down weakly. They were all very thin, with skinny bones and sunken eye sockets.
Both Dehuiniang looked healthy and rosy.
Renyazi was talking about the price with the guests, while Chen Huihong sat on the ground and watched with interest, while Hui Niang poked the soil on the ground with small pieces of wood, as if she wanted to dig something out of the soil.
While chatting, the guest looked at Huiniang, pointed at her and said, "Why don't you give her to me? This one looks better."
Chen Huihong looked at the two people.
Ren Yazi waved his hands repeatedly, indicating no: "This is not for sale."
"You are a businessman, so there is no point in buying a girl like this. This is a maid. It is expensive and not cost-effective."
Seeing Ren Yazi's refusal so simply, the guest looked at Hui Niang again. He didn't know whether he thought she was not good-looking or something else. He didn't insist on anything. He bargained for a while, and finally bought the original Hui Niang for the price of a small bag of sweet potatoes and half an ocean.
Buy one get one free, and let Yazi go back with him to get money and food.
Ren Yazi didn't worry about the others running away and followed him with a smile. After a while, he came back with a small bag of sweet potatoes.
When she saw someone coming back, Chen Huihong patted the dirt on her body and stood up, saying, "Are you leaving?"
"Let's go, of course. But Miss Chen, I have to explain something to you. We originally agreed to go together. Hui Yatou will look for water, so I gave her a bean cake in two days, and now we will arrive in Peking soon.
There’s no need for Hui girl to look for water, I won’t give you these bean cakes anymore.”
Chen Huihong had no reaction and just said lightly: "It has nothing to do with me."
Hui Niang held the clay jar and lowered her head uneasily.
Seeing that Chen Huihong was not angry, Ren Yazi had a smile on his face. He looked at Hui Niang and came up with other ideas: "Miss Chen, although your maid is not good-looking, she is better than the ones I have that cannot be sold."
More. Anyway, we will be in Peiping soon. If you find your family there, you won’t be able to use this maid. I think you won’t like her because she’s clumsy. I’ll give her half a pound, so you can sell her to me.
It also saves you the chance to sell it to Peking again."
As he said that, Ren Yazi looked at the other boys lying on the ground dying, and yelled at the top of his voice: "What are you still doing lying down? Why don't you get up and hurry up! Get to Peking one day earlier, sell out one day earlier and have enough to eat, Tiandu."
It's not dark yet and I want to rest. You deserve to be looked down upon by Boss Liu, you are a waste of food."
"I said, she is not my maid, and I have no right to sell her." Chen Huihong said calmly and left first.
Hui Niang followed closely behind, like a little tail, afraid of falling behind.
Ren Yazi looked at Chen Huihong's leaving figure, her face full of anger and unwillingness, but she did not dare to vent to Chen Huihong, so she could only kick the boy next to her: "Don't get up yet!"
Then, regardless of struggling to get up, the boys, who wished they could use their hands and feet like zombies, quickly followed Chen Huihong holding the sweet potatoes.
