Chapter 260: 260. Ten yuan for earthworms_1 Chapter 260: 260. Ten yuan for earthworms_1 People’s joys and sorrows do not communicate.
Zhu Li initially intended to end the disappointing live stream, but she unexpectedly discovered that following her boyfriend getting bitten fiercely by the big white goose, the attention in the live room had eerily risen.
Ah, this.
Is my boyfriend’s dignity more important, or is my own popularity?
The young man in front continued to squat on the ground with his head buried, presumably leaving little of his dignity. So with that being the case, why not smash the pot to pieces… ah no, make use of it twice, and contribute a little bit to my girlfriend’s popularity!
As a live streamer, Zhu Li was actually quite ready to brace through, even now stubbornly refusing to end the broadcast.
Wu Lei squatted on the ground for quite a while before the residual pain in his buttocks subsided. He slowly stood up, and at this moment was staring fiercely in the direction where the goose had vanished, grinding his teeth:
“If I don’t eat that goose today, I swear I’m not a man!”
“What’s its reason for biting people just like that?”
Why? Because it’s a goose.
Does a goose need a reason to dislike you?
Song Tan apologized with a smile, “I’m sorry, Brother Wu Lei, it’s not my goose; it belongs to my grandparents. They only raised that one, and for a small matter like this…”
Maybe it’s better not to be human!
Her demeanor suggested ‘why are you making a mountain out of a molehill’, which almost made Wu Lei feel a surge of frustration!
It was him! It was his buttocks that had been savagely nipped! Now he had talked tough, but it turned out the goose belonged to an elder…
All of you standing there without any pain!
At this moment, he gave his girlfriend a look full of accusation.
Zhu Li: …
She guiltily shifted her gaze away.
Nevertheless, popularity aside, today’s live stream ending up like this somewhat discouraged Zhu Li.
She numbly held the smartphone stand and followed Song Tan down the mountain. As they rounded the path, she suddenly saw a man in the dip ahead, bent over digging in the dirt.
Zhu Li adjusted the camera to avoid showing the man’s face–not that she was overly moral, but these live streaming rules are there to be respected to some extent.
She made conversation, “Are you weeding?”
Song Tan peered closer, “No, he’s digging up earthworms.”
Right in the middle of speaking, the man digging suddenly stood up and, seeing Song Tan, couldn’t help but turn awkwardly embarrassed:
“Hahaha, what’s up, Boss Song, nice weather, huh?”
Man, even through the screen you could see his guilt.
But honestly, digging earthworms isn’t something to be ashamed of, so why the attitude?
Song Tan knew exactly why–because to her, earthworms were handed out as sympathetic gifts and rewards.
Keep digging, the earthworms under the broken bricks and stones by the doorstep, she’d always adjust their Spiritual Energy a bit before she dug them up. As for these in the mountain soil…
Dig all you want.
She too smiled slightly, with a touch of mischievous knowingness, “Why not in a hurry to fish anymore?”
Why not eager to fish anymore?
You still have the nerve to ask!
Brother Fisher gave her a reproachful look, resembling a complaining wife–meaning that this pond seemed to have Magic Power; sometimes they could sit dry all day and not even catch a loach.
But the moment they used the earthworms given by the boss, goodness, the water churned below, and it didn’t even interfere with them catching big fish.
It was as if the big ones were fighting underwater, and the mightiest would bite.
Guaranteed to be a big fish!
Eventually, everyone figured that these earthworms must be magic bait, bred through some special method. You couldn’t buy them, and Zhang Yanping wouldn’t give out more.
No choice but to “rely on oneself.”
He was afraid of being seen by Song Tan, so he specifically went around a hill to dig here, but still ended up running into her.
Brother Fisher put on a stoic face, trying to sound serious:
“Sitting every day has given me lumbar muscle strain, I gotta move around.”
Song Tan also smiled understandingly, “It’s okay, no rush, if you don’t catch any fish today, you’ll be weeding tomorrow. There’ll be plenty of opportunities to move around then.”
A death blow straight to the heart!
Fearing the empty-handedness of fishing, Brother Fisher felt very ashamed inside.
But if he didn’t do the farm work, he wouldn’t get to eat their home-cooked food.
He sulkily said, “If you ask me, Boss Song, your family might as well turn this place into an agritainment farm. I come here to eat every day, I’ll bring you customers!”
Song Tan seriously replied, “We only have one chef, how can we take care of so many people’s meals? Don’t you know your own appetites?”
Brother Fisher thought of his own capacity for three or four lunch boxes per meal and silently shut up.
He huffed, jabbing the shovel into the ground, then asked, “10 RMB per earthworm, will you sell?”
“No.”
Barrage: …
[They must be talking about RMB, right?]
[10 RMB for an earthworm? What kind of earthworm is that? Two meters long?]
[To the one in front, if it’s two meters long, you’d be crying as you run.]
[This Brother Fisher isn’t up to scratch, taking the empty-handedness out on the bait.]
[Exactly! Report your location, I’ll go and make a bait bed for him!]
However, Brother Fisher couldn’t feel the disdain of the barrage; he was just quietly panicking:
“How can you not want to earn money when you have the chance?”
The other party became anxious, “I’ll just buy one. Can you quote a price or not? Will you sell for 50 a piece? Suffering the indignity of being empty-handed every day, do I not need my face anymore?”
Song Tan wondered, “But the past couple days, it wasn’t you who was in charge of weeding.”
“Exactly.”
The other party looked at her with a mournful expression, “At least I caught a water snake and two loaches.”
Even though he hadn’t caught a single proper fish, it was better than coming back with nothing at all.
In the past, carrying a bucket full of fish back home, his wife would look at him disapprovingly, complaining about the stink and urging him to give them away quickly.
Now, coming home with an empty bucket several days in a row, surely he couldn’t bring home a water snake or mudfish!
As a result, his wife looked down on him even more, mocking him for standing around holding a long rod all day, zoning out.
If only he had nothing better to do, he could find a gig out there, she said; collecting rent was a dead-end.
The bitterness and heartache involved were indescribable!
Zhu Li glanced at the barrage, where many people were offering earthworms at high prices–
[For 50 RMB, I’ll sell you 10! Those fat green earthworms and the small red ones, I can ship them to you.]
[To the scammer in front, how dare you charge that much for earthworms?]
[What’s wrong with that? One willing to hit, one willing to suffer, it’s already at 50 RMB a piece over there, right?]
Zhu Li: …
What, does she also have to consider selling earthworms now that she’s bringing in merchandise?
What self-respecting female live streamer sells earthworms, hello!
However, Song Tan just shook her head, “No way, we can’t cheat. If you really want earthworms, you’ll have to try harder.”
“Besides, after fishing today, aren’t you guys not coming for several days? Just go somewhere else and dig a few.”
Speaking of this made Brother Fisher even more heartbroken:
“Then what will I eat tomorrow?”
The food here was truly delicious.
So delicious that they’d rather grumble and struggle in the field pulling weeds than move away.
Song Tan thought for a moment, “We still have some greens in the field, do you want those? What about tea leaves?”
