A wealthy person with a reading panel

Chapter 107: Ruoshui, the boss who suffers from severe insomnia

2. From the "red lead elixir" of the Jiajing Dynasty to the "children's heart and liver medicine" of the Kingdom of Bhikkhu, the bloody metaphor of alchemy materials.

...]

Zhou Qing's inspiration flowed freely at this moment, and he wrote as if inspired by God.

Just after I wrote a little over a hundred words, Teacher Bai sent me a selfie after finding her seat: "I'm on the bus too."

Zhou Qing took a photo of the notebook in front of him and sent it over: "I'm taking notes while reading."

Teacher Bai: "Are you taking essay-style reading notes? I feel like you're working harder and more seriously now than when you were in school. Remember to send it to me immediately after you finish writing it. I want to read it. (Keep going!) (Little Star)"

Zhou Qing thought that he might not be working as hard as he did in his senior year of high school, but he was more proactive.

Like reading "Journey to the West" now, the requirement of the panel is just to read it through, but in order to get better results, I will take the initiative to roll myself so that I can get better results when I draw!

Of course, there are too many points that can be studied in depth in a masterpiece like "Journey to the West". For the time being, I can only choose one point from the countless points to explore superficially, which cannot be considered an intensive reading.

Zhou Qing set out from Chuncheng. The final destination of this trip was Urumqi, but he would first go to Lancheng, the capital of Jiangsu and Gansu Province.

Before buying the ticket, he checked the places with the highest probability of consecutive sunny days in the next nine days.

The first are Turpan and Urumqi, followed by Lancheng and Xiping.

He originally planned to go directly to Turpan, where there is little rainfall and the possibility of nine consecutive sunny days is the highest. But then he thought that in Lancheng, eight of the next nine days will be sunny, and the remaining day will be "cloudy to sunny."

Moreover, it was sunny that day in many places around Lancheng.

Once you get there, you can simply rent a car to solve the problem perfectly.

There was no need to go to the new province again - the area was vast and sparsely populated, and Zhou Qing was afraid that he would be unfamiliar with the place and it would be inconvenient to get supplies.

He spent more than three hours checking the original work and online information, and after writing this essay-like reading note, he checked and revised it twice and felt that it was very good. After a rough count, he found that it was about three thousand words.

I read it again at the end and felt that I wrote it very well. I suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment and wanted to share it.

I immediately took out my mobile phone and took pictures of each page, selected the original pictures, and sent them to Teacher Bai.

After finishing all this, I looked at the time and it was already 6:40 in the evening.

He opened the 12306 app on his phone and ordered a box lunch. After the uniformed conductor brought it to him, he ate while searching for information about the kitchenware market in Lancheng.

After searching around, finishing the lunch box and throwing away the lunch box, he returned to his seat, turned to the last page of his notebook, and took a pen to make a list of things he needed to rent or purchase after arriving in Lancheng: a car, a bamboo steamer, an iron pot, gauze, rice wine or black bean juice, kitchen paper, etc.

"Staying in an ordinary hotel is obviously not suitable for this trip. We should find a B&B in the suburbs or countryside where we can cook our own meals. If the weather changes and we want to chase sunny days, we will need some outdoor equipment like a portable stove."

"It's best to look in the direction of Xining. According to the weather forecast I checked earlier, it will be sunny in this direction."

Following this idea, Zhou Qing searched on the travel app and quickly found his target: "Yongdeng Xintanbang Countryside Resort B&B Villa, three bedrooms, five living rooms, four bathrooms, and one kitchen, sleeps eight, price 220 yuan."

He immediately searched the weather conditions at this address.

"Hey, it's been sunny for nine days, which is better than in Lancheng."

Zhou Qing clicked on the map to check the specific location and found that this county was relatively close to Lancheng Zhongchuan Airport. He went back to watch the video of the real-life country villa and said, "Let's book this one. Although it's far from the city and takes more than half an hour to drive there, if the weather doesn't change and there are nine consecutive sunny days, it will save a lot of trouble. Moreover, I can fly directly back to Tanzhou after ten days." He made a decision and immediately placed an order on the app for ten days. Because the prices in different time periods were slightly different, the system finally gave a total price of 2588 yuan.

Zhou Qing placed the order directly, then contacted the landlord online, and the two added each other on WeChat.

After briefly telling the other party about his approximate arrival time tomorrow, he opened "Journey to the West" and continued reading Chapter 87.

Not long after, WeChat suddenly rang. He thought it was Teacher Bai who had finished reading his reading notes and sent him a message for feedback. When he unlocked the phone, he saw it was Boss Ruoshui.

"Zhou Qing, are you still playing in Nanyun Province? When will you return to Tanzhou?"

Zhou Qing typed back, "Ruoshui, I've moved to Sugan Province and am on the high-speed train to Shancheng. Is there anything wrong?"

Jiang Ruoshui: "Well, I've been suffering from insomnia recently. I wanted to put down my work and find a place to relax, and then I thought of you."

Insomnia?

Zhou Qing asked, "Is your work pressure so great?"

Jiang Ruoshui: "The work pressure is not that great, it's mainly because I stay up late too much."

The two chatted for a while, and Zhou Qing remembered the house he had just rented in the countryside of Lancheng. It did have four bedrooms, but he was not sure whether a wealthy man like Ruoshui could get used to living in a self-built house in the countryside that cost more than 200 yuan a night.

I asked tentatively first: "Would you like to come to Su Gan Province to visit me? I'll be here for at least ten days."

Jiang Ruoshui quickly replied, "Forget it. I'll come and play with you after you return to Tanzhou."

Zhou Qing thought, that’s fine.

As the saying goes, there are unexpected changes in weather. Although the weather forecast shows that it will be sunny there for the next nine days, if there is any change, I will have to move to another location immediately. If Boss Ruoshui and the others come, it will not be so convenient - I may have to abandon them and run away.

He thought for a moment and said, "Well, that's fine. By the way, if you have insomnia, have you ever tried massage or spa treatments to help you sleep?"

Jiang Ruoshui: "I've tried everything, but apart from taking sleeping pills directly, nothing else works."

Zhou Qing: "Is that so? That's a pity. Some time ago..."

He told about how he had recently found a very skilled spa aromatherapist who could always make him fall asleep under her massage.

"I was thinking about recommending it to you."

Jiang Ruoshui became interested after hearing this and asked, "If I can make you fall asleep every time, then I'd like to try it. Is it a female technician?"

"Yes."

He gave another brief introduction to Gu Qian's situation.

Then he stood up, walked between the two carriages, and called Gu Qian directly to ask if she was willing to go on a business trip:

"There's a good friend of mine in Jiangcheng. She often stays up late and suffers from severe insomnia. I want you to give it a try. I'll just count the double billing times from our contract, and the travel expenses will be paid separately."

"If it helps, we can talk about the rest later. I will definitely not treat you unfairly."

Boss Ruoshui had taken so much care of him before, and he especially wanted to find an opportunity to repay him.
