Chapter 90 Picking Coconuts

In the pergola, several people finished their breakfast and sat on chairs with satisfied expressions. Huang Lei looked up at the sky and said, "Today's weather is really nice, cloudy, suitable for outdoor sports."

Huang Bai said: "The weather is indeed very good, suitable for staying indoors, drinking tea, chatting, relaxed and comfortable, longing for a life!"

Huang Lei glanced at him with a smile, "Xiaobai, did you order a lot of dishes? Such as braised pork, Qiongzhou coconut chicken?"

"More than that, we also ordered roasted whole lamb, stewed yak, steamed salmon, and wind-blown pork ribs. A visitor is a guest. Teacher Huang and Teacher He will definitely satisfy the requirements of the guests."

Huang Bo first put his high hat on them.

Huang Lei said with a smile: "It's okay to eat whatever you want, even the dragon meat in the sky. The problem is that I can't do anything without the ingredients. Why don't you feel wronged today and eat noodles three times a day?"

"No! Absolutely not! Why can I only eat noodles when the king is here!"

Sun Honglei objected, pointing to the cow shed and sheep shed outside, "Isn't there a ready-made one over there? Just pull it out and stew it."

Huang Lei laughed, "Are you stupid? That's a cow, not a yak."

"Cows are also fine, we are not picky eaters."

He Jiong pretended to be terrified at the side, and joked: "You guys actually want to eat 'Golden Master Papa', I will defend it to the death!"

Several people laughed.

Huang Bai said with a smile: "The sponsorship fee must be raised, at least [-]%!"

Huang Lei jokingly said: "Fifty percent is not enough, Mr. He works so hard, at least five times!"

Huang Bo leaned back in 'fright', and said with a smile, "Are you going to hit it with a 500-ton hammer? Everything can be done with one hammer."

Qin Shu laughed out loud, "500 tons is not bad, and any sponsor can be settled with one hammer."

He Jiong said: "Mr. Huang, Brother Bai is changing the subject."

Huang Lei knew that the two were playing 'muddle' and didn't want to work, so he said, "I won't go around in circles anymore, threshing rice, getting honey, or going to the tree to pick coconuts, or going to the forest to catch chickens, you choose one!"

Huang Bai and Sun Honglei secretly smiled at each other, pretending not to hear.

"Huang Xiaochu, what are you talking about? Speak up, I can't hear you." Sun Honglei was selectively 'deaf' again.

Huang Lei laughed angrily, "I said you are a fool!"

He was also helpless when the two of them did not work.

Sun Honglei laughed, "I just like to see you helpless."

Huang Lei smiled and didn't refute. He had no choice but to resort to the usual trick of Mushroom House, which was also the most effective trick.

Playing hard to get and adding bitter tricks.

Let the guests open up to play first, and watch other people working hard there, and they will naturally feel "guilty" in their hearts and take the initiative to join.

"Qin Shu, Peng Peng, Zi Feng, today's guests don't want to work, and I can't help it. I can only work hard for you three."

"It's okay, Teacher Huang. How about we pick coconuts first, and then catch chickens?" Qin Shu responded.

"Okay, go, be careful, don't fall."

Qin Shu, Peng Yuchang, and Zhang Zifeng nodded and left, and went to the tool room to get equipment.

Sun Honglei looked at the back of the three of them leaving, smiled and said to Huang Bai: "Xiaobai, do you see that, a teacher is a teacher, with knowledge, first play hard to get, and then show us the hard tricks. ...... Lei Lei, yours Conspiracy will not succeed."

Huang Lei said with a smile: "Mine is not a conspiracy, it is a conspiracy. If you have the nerve to sit and not work, I can't help it."

"We won't work today, what can you do?"

On the other side, the three of Qin Shu took the sickle and the tools for kicking the trees, and under the leadership of the staff, they walked out of the small courtyard and walked along the lake to a coconut forest. There were many coconut trees, tall and short.

Sun Honglei and Huang Bai came over to take a look when they had nothing to do, accompanied by Huang Lei and He Jiong.

Qin Shu put the 2-meter-high short ladder under a small coconut tree, looked at the height, it was still a little away from the coconut, and it was only a few steps up.

"Peng Peng, come here."

He gave the opportunity to Peng Yuchang, otherwise he would not have the chance to perform in the tall coconut tree.

Peng Yuchang climbed up the short ladder with the tree climbing shoes and safety belt, fastened the safety belt, buckled the tree climbing shoes on the tree, and Qin Shu gave him the sickle after he stood up.

Slowly climb up a few times, the sickle is enough to hook the coconut, raise the knife and drop it, a coconut falls, rises again, falls again.

On the ground, Sun Honglei seemed to be very simple. With a thought, he said, "Peng Peng, let me try."

Cork:?
Aren't you not working?Why did you suddenly take the initiative to work?
Sun Honglei looked at Huang Bai's expression, and said with a smile: "Why are you looking at me? I'm not like you, I don't want to do any work, I only know how to eat!"

Huang Bai smiled and said, "Tsk tsk, I have seen what it means to turn your face faster than a book."

Sun Honglei smiled and asked Huang Lei, "How much is it to pick a coconut?"

"15 yuan." Huang Lei smiled, he really couldn't understand Sun Honglei's thinking.

"Okay, I will earn 200 yuan first." He glanced at the coconuts on the tree, there were 4 more, and there were a few dwarf coconut trees in other places, adding up to more than ten coconuts.

Hand in hand.

Peng Yuchang got down from the tree, and Sun Honglei climbed up the short ladder, fastened his seat belt, and stood firmly on the tree climbing shoes.

"Where's the knife? Bring the knife."

When Peng Yuchang was about to hand it over, Huang Bai said, "Give it to me, and I'll hand it to him."

Peng Yuchang gave him the knife, and Huang Bai came to the short ladder with the knife. Seeing that Sun Honglei had stood still, he suddenly moved the ladder away, not giving him a chance to step back.

He laughed loudly and said, "Sun Honglei, do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Do you look at the easy work and want to pick up the loopholes?... There are no doors, just stay on the tree obediently!"

Sun Honglei hugged the tree trunk and tried to move. The movement was extremely unfamiliar, the moving distance was short, and it took a long time. Climbing the tree was not as easy as he imagined.

Seeing his clumsy appearance, several people were amused.

"Xiaobai, I was wrong, bring the ladder here." Sun Honglei began to "beg for mercy" based on the principle of "a good man does not suffer immediate losses".

Huang Bai smiled and said, "Where did you go wrong?"

"I shouldn't call you an idiot."

"Looks like you want to hang on to it all the time."

"Take it here, be careful I will hit you with a coconut."

"Yo, yo, if you have the ability, you can pick one up and have a look."

Huang Bai chuckled, and lifted the ladder under another short coconut tree with his backhand, letting Peng Yuchang go up to pick it.

Sun Honglei had no choice but to move down the tree slowly.

Seeing this, Huang Bai picked up a stick from somewhere, and walked under the Sun Honglei tree with a smile.

"Sun Honglei, you also have today... go up, go up and stay, the tree is the place that belongs to you, don't come down and be a disaster."

He stretched out a stick and kept poking Sun Honglei's buttocks, preventing him from coming down. .

Sun Honglei was not hanging on the tree, nor was he hanging down, very helpless.

Qin Shu and the others were amused and laughed.

Huang Lei looked amusing, so he picked up a stick and poked it underneath. Sun Honglei became 'angry', "Xiao Bai, Huang Xiaochu, you have offended me, and the consequences will be serious."

"Say, how serious is it?"

Huang Lei laughed and poked again, thinking it was fun.

Sun Honglei was scared, he was just talking, and he had no choice but to beg for mercy.

Huang Bai and Huang Lei didn't make things difficult for him too much. After Peng Yuchang finished picking coconuts from a tree, they took him down with a ladder.

As soon as his feet landed, Sun Honglei's face changed suddenly, from a 'little sheep' to a 'big bad wolf' running after Huang Lei and Huang Bai.

The three of them chased by the lake and had a great time.

Qin Shu and the others watched for a while, then continued to work on picking coconuts.

Peng Yuchang still used the ladder, but Qin Shu was useless, so he just climbed up with his bare hands. Zhang Zifeng had seen his skills on the island, so it was not surprising, while He Jiong and Peng Yuchang kept their eyes wide open.

"Qin Shu, be careful." He Jiong was worried that he would fall, and wanted to stop him, but Qin Shu was as flexible as a monkey, and he had already climbed very high, and it was too late to stop him.

"Mr. He, it's okay."

Qin Shu quickly climbed to the top of the tree, took out the sickle behind his backhand, and the coconuts fell one by one.

Not far away, the three of them who were playing around also found Qin Shu. Sun Honglei and Huang Bai showed surprise when they saw him climb up a coconut tree more than 10 meters high with his bare hands.

Huang Lei said: "On the first day we went to the island, Xiaoshu snatched coconuts like this. The trees on the island are much taller than these, but he still climbed up nimbly. Otherwise, we would have no water to drink."

"Amazing!" Huang Bai exclaimed.

Huang Lei continued: "At that time there were five foreigners who wanted to rob us of our coconuts. Guess what? On the ground, I was shocked when I saw it.”

"Niuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu I'm still a master."

Sun Honglei looked at Qin Shu and gave a thumbs up.

On the other side, Qin Shu and Peng Yuchang were still picking coconuts. Qin Shu climbed the taller trees and left the shorter ones to Peng Yuchang, but he was faster than him.

He Jiong and Zhang Zifeng picked up coconuts on the ground, and Zhang Zifeng looked at the familiar scene, as if he had returned to the original island.

The last accident left a deep shadow in her heart, especially when she was trapped in the water, the sense of despair waiting to die was suffocating.

During that time, she had many nightmares. In the dreams, she was weak and helpless, struggling and hopeless. Just when she was desperate, a vague figure appeared to save her from danger.

He wanted to see who the blurry figure was, but he couldn't.

She guessed it was Qin Shu, but she wasn't so sure.

Zhang Zifeng was very grateful to Qin Shu, but she didn't find any other feelings. Even if she accidentally took away her first kiss, she didn't think about it.

The situation was urgent, she didn't blame Qin Shu for taking advantage of her, she only felt grateful.

While thinking wildly, Zhang Zifeng and He Jiong worked hard to pick up coconuts, while Qin Shu and Peng Yuchang worked hard to pick them.

Seeing this, the three of Huang Lei also took the initiative to help pick up coconuts.

For nearly three hours, they stopped and went, picked more than 50 coconuts, and ran back and forth three times before moving them all back to the mushroom house.

15 yuan a piece, full of confidence.

"Director, come and count the money!" Peng Yuchang began to yell after returning to the small courtyard, with a rather smug expression.

Wang Zhengyu smiled slightly, the matter was not beyond his expectation, they had already taken Qin Shu's strength into consideration.

"How much?"

Huang Lei said: "50, save a few to make coconut chicken at night."

"Okay, a total of 750 yuan."

Huang Bai smiled and said, "Director, round up, 800 yuan."

Qin Shu answered, "Brother Bai, that's not right, rounded up, it should be 1000 yuan."

Wang Zhengyu said with a smile: "According to your calculations, rounding up should mean that there is no money."

He gave Huang Lei 750 yuan.

"How much is the raw material for roasting a whole lamb?"

"Exquisite mutton, 1500 yuan a piece."

"Half 500, I'll cook roast lamb at night." Huang Lei bargained.

"Okay, let's not take this as an example."

Huang Lei smiled slightly and bought some other ingredients. The 750 yuan was 15 yuan left in a blink of an eye.

The good brother came to the Mushroom House as a guest, and he wanted to treat him well.
