Chapter 326: 326. Bow Tie or Shoelace_1 Chapter 326: 326. Bow Tie or Shoelace_1 However, Qiaoqiao was still somewhat dissatisfied:
“Sister, next time if Qiaoqiao does well, could you reward me with an Ultraman Tiga? I haven’t seen Seiro yet. What if he turns out to be a bad guy?”
Song Tan put down her chopsticks perplexed, “Ultraman… aren’t they all pretty much the same?”
“They’re different,” Qiaoqiao replied earnestly, blinking.
Song Tan: …
For some reason, she had a bad feeling about this.
…
After eating their fill, Sun Shouping also began to suffer.
He and Zhang Yanping, looking like pregnant women in their third trimester, each held their bellies as they aimlessly wandered around the yard under the fierce sun, sweating profusely.
Zhang Yanping looked at him helplessly, “Can you put your teacup down? You’ll digest even slower if you keep drinking water.”
Although the teacup in Sun Shouping’s hands was quite hot, he insisted, “You don’t understand, drinking this tea makes me feel not so restless inside, and I don’t feel as hot either.”
Even though it was hot tea going down, the sweat it induced actually made him feel more comfortable. Not to mention the tea was so fragrant, he couldn’t bear to stop drinking it.
But…
“Burp!”
He belched, as there was really no room left in his stomach.
Zhang Yanping was speechless.
Although he had the intention of selling, he hadn’t planned on making his old classmate so full he’d burst. Now he looked at him irritably, “Aren’t you supposed to shoot videos for your dogs? Big White hasn’t been filmed yet. Hurry up, put the teacup down, let’s take a stroll on the back mountain. There are many trees there, it’s cooler.”
In the middle of the day, they couldn’t sleep in the house, so going up the mountain was a better idea!
…
Two grown men donning straw hats ran up to the mountain in the midday heat. As they approached the back mountain, Sun Shouping suddenly stopped.
“Let’s go!” urged Zhang Yanping, “Aren’t you hot with the sun beating down on you? There are trees ahead at least.”
Sun Shouping wiped away his sweat, “Hot, yes, but the goose on the mountain…”
“No worries,” said Zhang Yanping with apparent experience, “Big White doesn’t hold grudges; he’s just hostile toward everyone.”
Sun Shouping: … You saying that just makes me even less eager to go.
Alright then.
Zhang Yanping, understanding his timid friend, pointed in another direction, “Over on this side of the back mountain, there are 8 beehives. The bees buzz, but they don’t sting people.”
“If you think it’s okay, we can sit over there.”
Sure!
Sun Shouping cheered up, “I know about bees; home-raised bees generally don’t sting. Besides, we can just sit a little further away, right?”
After a moment of thought, he added, “You don’t feed your bees sugar syrup, do you? If not, I’ll take two jin of natural honey when we leave.”
Where wouldn’t there be flowers in the heat of summer? Who needs to feed them sugar syrup? As for taking two jin…
Zhang Yanping smiled inscrutably, “Don’t worry, I’ll let you taste some before you go. It’s not easy coming all this way.”
“It’s okay,” Sun Shouping smiled sincerely, “The drive here was quite smooth; it wasn’t hard.”
Zhang Yanping: … I mean, it’s not easy for someone to come here.
He smiled implicitly.
Going up from another part of the back mountain, they indeed saw a row of beehives, all neat and orderly. The bees buzzed around, and because of the hot weather and it being noon, they weren’t too numerous or frightening. On the contrary, this added a lively touch to the tranquil woods.
The two found a patch of grass and sat down.
It was then Sun Shouping brought up the main topic, “Why don’t… you take my phone and shoot a few videos of Big White?”
The weather was hot, and Zhang Yanping didn’t feel like moving, “Tantan posted some on her Moments, can’t you just pick a couple from there?”
Sun Shouping sighed, “I need to take a few close-ups…”
Zhang Yanping was a bit puzzled, “You’re going to all this trouble; if Big White has puppies, how much can you sell one for?”
“The price of a dog? It can’t be fixed.”
Sun Shouping was also frank, “Take the common German Shepherds nowadays, for example. In some places, you can get one for 800, but in my kennel, you’d need to add a zero. That’s the price for dogs with basic training.”
“If you want to add some more programs, you’ll have to pay extra. However, if it’s a pup that’s just reached a month old, the price can be halved. It’s hard to say, it all depends on the appearance and lineage.”
“Nowadays, people who raise dogs care about these things.”
Wow!
Only then did Zhang Yanping become surprised, “So you sold one to Tantan for 3000; you really cut into your capital, huh?”
“Not necessarily,” Sun Shouping said with a smile, “These dogs are almost grown up, not easy to sell. People who buy dogs rarely buy full-grown ones; they usually start with puppies and raise them gradually.”
“Selling for 3000 is definitely not profitable, but to say I’m taking a loss is also not true.”
“However, now that they’ve raised such good traits, when the puppies come, not to mention anything else, if they inherit the big picture without much difference, I could sell a pup for 8000.”
Nice.
Zhang Yanping sized him up, his gaze filled with ill-intent, “You’re quite rich!”
Sun Shouping felt a pang of alarm and cautiously said, “Rich? Like us who run kennels, the money just flows in and out, no savings.”
Zhang Yanping: …
“Look at how guarded you are! I’m not asking to borrow money, just pondering whether or not you have enough to afford my sales pitch later.”
Sun Shouping relaxed, “We’re brothers; I could lend a few tens of thousands… As for the sales pitch, you don’t need to sell me anything, I can decide right now!”
“Get me a pound of this tea, a couple of bottles of honey, and your family’s chili beef sauce. At least give me a few bottles; I’m willing to pay!”
Zhang Yanping: … Since you say so, brother, I won’t be shy later.
To make this deal happen, it was worth having Big White come out for a video shoot.
Thinking this, he raised his voice, “Big White!”
The bushes rustled, and Big White’s tall figure soon appeared on the other side of the hill.
Zhang Yanping waved at him, “Come on, let’s take a photo!”
At the word, Big White, with his tongue hanging out, eagerly trotted over, very willing and proactive.
Sun Shouping had already turned on his phone, but just as he aimed the camera, he put it down again, “That thing… I don’t even want to mention your taste, can you remove that red floral scarf?”
“If we send this out, all its majestic air would turn into pure comedy.”
Big White let out a reluctant whine, and Zhang Yanping quickly soothed,
“It’s okay, I’ll tie it back on you in a bit.”
With that, he untied the bow at the back of its neck and took down the red scarf.
Without the floral scarf, the passion was gone.
Big White sat there unwillingly, looking quite ferocious in the photos, which excited Sun Shouping:
“Good, good! Great presence, Big White!”
This fierce and aggressive canine vibe; he felt like he could already see piles of money!
After they had finally finished shooting, Zhang Yanping hurriedly retied the red scarf–
But how was that neat and fancy butterfly bow tied again?
He fiddled around Big White’s neck and eventually only managed to tie something resembling shoe laces, then nonchalantly withdrew his hand.
However, Big White shook his head, catching sight of the fabric strip hanging from the back of his neck–
“Woof woof woof!!!”
