Druid's Country Retirement

Chapter 40 Selling Flowers
beep...

After a few beeps.

The beautiful face of his ex-wife appeared in the mobile phone video.

Looking at the background, it should be in a coffee bar, and the background is a bit noisy.

The ex-wife still looked disgusted.

"Li Hongbing, can you ask me if I have time before making a call? This is basic courtesy."

"Okay, do you have time? I'll find Nier, thank you!"

"Hmph, it's still the same. Remember, my daughter's name is Anna, don't use the rural address. Anna, answer the phone."

Faced with the aggressiveness of his ex-wife, Li Hongbing still kept smiling. He used the speakerphone for the video. When Sanpao heard the conversation, he was angry and helpless, and walked out of the store silently.

The phone screen changed, and the innocent face of my daughter appeared.

"Papa, I miss you so much."

The daughter's voice was full of longing, almost breaking Li Hongbing's defenses, and suddenly felt that it was a very wrong decision to leave his daughter to his ex-wife.

"Ni'er, are you obedient, are you good?"

"Papa, Nier is very obedient. She brushes her teeth and eats vegetables every day. Where's the black corner?"

The daughter was holding the video and talking, only to hear her ex-wife off-camera yelling at her daughter not to speak the local language. Li Hongbing was so angry that he wanted to turn to the other side of the phone and slap the woman a few times.

"Ni'er, Black Horn is not here, what do you think it is?"

Li Hongbing moved the camera of his mobile phone to his shoulder and aimed at the white-mouthed old raven.

"Wow, what a big bird."

"Do you like it? Come on, let it perform for Nier, okay?"

"it is good!"

Next, the white-billed crow was unlucky, and under the command of Li Hongbing, he performed various fancy moves.

It wasn't until Li Hongbing reluctantly hung up the video chat that the white-billed crow breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the coffee table, gasping for breath.

After chatting with his daughter, Li Hongbing was in a much better mood. By the way, he sent the photos he took these days to Moments.

Let those people take a good look at it. Even if I, Li Hongbing, leave Mingzhu City, I will live a carefree life, which is better than before.

At this time.

Sanpao and Chunmiao walked into the shop carrying large and small bags, and the tangy smell of meat hit their nostrils.

The white-billed crow that was lying like a dead dog regained its vigor immediately. Gulu turned over and jumped up, pecking at the plastic bag containing the meat with his sharp beak.

"Let's go, there are no rules."

Li Hongbing picked up the white-billed crow and threw it to the ground.

Not to mention, Li Hongbing gave an order, and the white-billed crow squatted obediently by his feet, never taking a step closer to the plastic bag.

Chun Miao, who was putting on a plate, was stunned for a while, it was the first time he saw such a spiritual old raven.

The coffee table is filled with delicious food.

San Pao respectfully took out a bottle of earthen jar, opened it and released a faint aroma of wine.

"Don't drink, I will ride a bike later." Li Hongbing refused.

"This is papaya wine, soaked in rice wine. The forest area is humid, so it's okay to drink less."

"Yes, brother Hongbing, we don't know how to thank you for helping Sanpao so much."

The couple took turns to fight, and Li Hongbing didn't stop refusing, "Just one drink, if you're in the city, it's considered drunk driving."

Seeing that Li Hongbing agreed, Sanpao quickly winked at his daughter-in-law, who turned around and took out a cup from the cabinet.

Seeing this, Li Hongbing couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This is not a cup, it is clearly a large draft beer mug, okay?

Two cans of one catty papaya wine were barely eighty percent full.

Without giving Li Hongbing a chance to speak, Sanpao and his daughter-in-law stood up, holding up their small wine glasses.

"Brother, my mother-in-law and I respect you, it's useless to say anything, it's all in a sip of wine."

After finishing speaking, the couple drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and turned the glass over to indicate that there was nothing left.

you two.

Li Hongbing smiled wryly and shook his head, picked up the beer mug and took a big gulp.

what!
Papaya wine tastes good.

It has the length and thickness of rice wine, and the sweetness of fruit.

Next is the free fighting time, but the Sanpao couple fight Li Hongbing alone.

The white-billed crow was not idle either, with a pig's trotter in its mouth.

The wine table was fiercely fought, and the atmosphere was relaxed.

It's just that the phone keeps beeping.

Li Hongbing took a look at it, and it was nothing more than some former colleagues and customers who liked the newly posted Moments.

The phone was thrown aside.

The three continued to drink and eat meat and talk about memories.

At this time.

The phone rings for a voice chat application.

Originally, Li Hongbing didn't want to pick up the phone, but couldn't resist the Sanpao couple's persuasion. He picked up the phone and looked at it, with a weird expression on his face.

It turned out to be Mr. Xu, a big client who had been out of touch for a long time.

Although this Young Master Xu is called Young Master, he is in his forties, his family is the top consortium in Mingzhu City, he is rich and generous, he is good at food and loves to play, so he is nicknamed Young Master by people in the circle.

In the past, Li Hongbing and Mr. Xu had dealt with Mr. Xu several times in business, drank wine a few times, and went to the big sword a few times, and then lost contact.

After connecting, Mr. Xu asked impatiently.

"Brother Li, is that clump of orchids in Moments yours?"

"Well, it's mine."

"Great, are you still here?"

"Yes, why? Mr. Xu is interested?"

"Yes, how much do you plan to sell this mutated orchid?"

"I don't know much about the market for orchids. How about Mr. Xu, if you make an offer, I'll sell it to you if it suits you."

"Well, this plant of yours belongs to the mutant Chunlan, the petals and stamens are perfect, one million would you like to make a move?"

100 million!

Hear this price.

Li Hongbing couldn't help being a little excited, and finally saw the money back.

Mr. Xu said again, "Brother Li, you know what I am, Old Xu. I am the only one in the orchid world who can afford this price. Even if it goes to auction, it may not be able to sell for 100 million. My grandfather celebrates his birthday in a few days. otherwise"

"50 deposit, to ensure that the pattern is consistent with the photo, but you send someone to pick up the goods yourself, I will not be responsible for the delivery."

"Row!"

The three-pao couple on the opposite side of the coffee table were completely dumbfounded.

What orchids, what 100 million, what 50 deposit.

Brother Hongbing is doing something illegal!

Hang up the phone, and WeChat immediately sends out a notification tone.

"You have received 50 yuan."

moment.

There was silence in the business hall, only the clacking sound of the pig's trotters.

San Pao swallowed foam and asked in horror.

"Brother, what are you selling, we can't do illegal things."

Li Hongbing smiled slightly, opened Moments, and pointed to a photo of orchids.

"There is a pigweed orchid in the old house that was chosen by someone, and he is willing to pay 100 million yuan to buy it. The 50 yuan is a deposit. Silly boy, with my craftsmanship, I still need to do illegal things."

Pig grass orchid?
No, it's the orchid leaves, even the pigs don't eat them.

It can be sold for 100 million.

The people in the city are crazy.

The couple had impressive expressions, especially San Pao, whose eyes rolled around, as if thinking about something.

Li Hongbing hurriedly warned.

"You don't understand. People in the city like things in the mountains. The richer they are, the more they like them. Don't mess around, you kid. If you touch something, something will happen."

Chun Miao also found that something was wrong with her man, so she pinched the soft flesh on her waist.

Whoops!

San Pao let out a scream, came back to his senses, and blamed himself for the greed that had just arisen.

It's good to live a stable life without worrying all day long. A few years ago, there were a few boys in Dawang Village who worked in the old forest. They were sentenced to ten years in prison, and they were called other people's fathers when they were released.

Li Hongbing picked up his mobile phone to operate it, and the three-pao mobile phone rang a reminder that 30 yuan had been credited.

"You take the money first, and deal with the electricity and signal connection in Caogou Village. We talked about it last time."

Sanpao recalled the chat between the two that night.

Self-raised 50.

Transform the circuit in Caogou Village and build a signal base station.

I thought it was a joke at first, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be true.
