Chapter 12: Old Tang, What Are You Doing?
"Poor kid." Russell shook his head. He could only say that Zhao Menghua deserved it for what he had experienced.
"Come to think of it, Brother Russell, what exactly were you and Lu Mingfei doing at home? There was such a big commotion that night." Su Xiaoqiang turned her head and asked, blinking her big, sparkling eyes, her eyes full of curiosity for new things.
"I'm an orphan with no family. As for my career, I've worked in the entertainment industry, the restaurant industry, and real estate. I've done a bit of everything."
Russell shrugged his shoulders and did not shy away from the word "orphan" because in his opinion, his parents were still alive on Earth and he had a younger brother, so it was not as if the two elders had lost their desire for the world.
Su Xiaoqiang immediately clasped her fists and said, "Doesn't that mean you've made it all from scratch? You're a first-generation rich man! I admire you!"
"It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning. Don't admire me too much." Russell waved his hand. Su Xiaoqiang's generous personality was really to his liking. It was a pity that his future was destined to be the stars and the sea.
Next, the two chatted casually, from novels to TV dramas to games, and then to some interesting things they had experienced, interspersed with a few complaints about Lu Mingfei.
Nearly an hour passed like this, and Su Xiaoqiang's cell phone rang. It was Su Jiancheng calling, saying that it was time to go home. Su Xiaoqiang and Russell ended the conversation and returned to the box.
"This girl is pretty good, isn't she?" Uncle Chen smiled so hard that his eyes almost squinted together as he watched Su Jiancheng and Su Xiaoqiang, father and daughter, leave.
"I'm not saying you're disrespectful to the elderly, but this girl just graduated from high school and is Mingming's classmate. Do you think this is appropriate?" Russell pinched Uncle Chen's shoulder unhappily. This old man was becoming more and more unreliable.
"How can it not be suitable? You are not married and she is not married either. As for the classmate of Xiaolu you mentioned, isn't that just fate?" Uncle Chen said it confidently, as if Russell and Su Xiaoqiang were destined by God.
"Just a bear, just eat the tender grass if you are old, but don't take me with you."
Uncle Chen’s wife is ten years younger than him, which means that when Uncle Chen graduated from university, his wife had just graduated from elementary school.
"Hey! We were just talking about your business, why are you involving me?" Uncle Chen glared at Russell, blew his beard, raised his crutch and wanted to teach this brat Russell a lesson.
Russell ran away without saying a word. Although the old man was old, he was very strong. The force of his crutch when it hit people was extraordinary.
……
"How do you feel after chatting with Brother Luo for so long?"
On the way home, the father and daughter sat in the back seat, and Su Jiancheng took the initiative to ask about the progress between his daughter and Russell.
"Dad, your girl isn't at the point where no one wants her. How can you treat your daughter like that? If you do that again, I'll tell my mom." Su Xiaoqiang glared at Su Jiancheng angrily. Su Jiancheng begged for mercy, "Just let your dad be quiet for two days and don't drag your mom into everything."
"Okay, but Dad, you have to tell me what's wrong with you tonight. I've never seen you drink so much before. Did something happen at the company?" Su Xiaoqiang raised the price on the spot.
"Have you seen that bottle of wine?" Su Jiancheng smiled and didn't want to hide it. He only had one daughter, Su Xiaoqiang, and the family business would eventually be passed on to her.
"Feitian Moutai, what's the problem? It's not expensive." Su Xiaoqiang frowned, not understanding what her father meant. With wine of this price, his family wouldn't feel bad about using it to plant flowers.
"It's not a question of whether it's expensive or not. That bottle of wine was a gift from your father to an elder when I started from scratch." Su Jiancheng's face was full of nostalgia, as if he was reminiscing about his lost youth under the sunset.
Wines like this that are specially created to create hype have special codes. He had just started his career and was short of money, so he was particularly impressed by this "famous wine" whose price was so high that it broke his heart.
He was absolutely certain that this was the bottle of wine he had given to Mr. Chen at midnight that year.
"That must have been more than 20 years!" Su Xiaoqiang asked in surprise.
"Of course not." Su Jiancheng sighed. "I really didn't expect to see this bottle of wine again after more than 20 years. I was moved and drank a few more glasses. Don't tell your mother."
"Okay, then don't rush to arrange a blind date for me."
"You really have no idea about Brother Luo? I think that kid is pretty good." Su Jiancheng stroked his chin and said with some regret.
"No." Su Xiaoqiang said firmly.
……
On the other side, Russell returned home and logged into the Hunter website.
Unlike other times, this time he was not accepting a mission, but issuing a mission.
Over the past few days, with the support of the Six Treasury Immortal Thief, his bloodline has steadily improved. However, the nutrients provided by grains are too limited, and the rate of improvement is far slower than he expected. This is why he needs the essence and blood of fierce beasts like tigers and bears to aid his cultivation. After topping up his hunter account with $100,000, the mission was successfully launched.
Because the mission was easy and the reward was generous, it was accepted by hunters within less than half an hour after it was released.
As for how to transport these animals to his own hands after hunting, Russell is not worried, because he has also issued another escort mission, which still pays well. Hunters with ideas and ways will sign up themselves.
then……
[Hunter Donald has accepted your escort mission]
?
Old Tang, what are you doing?
Because of the employer's privacy protection, the hunter cannot know the code name or identity of the person who issued the task, but the employer can see the hunter's identity information.
Donald is both Old Tang's real name and his hunter nickname. Russell can even see the green dot in the lower right corner of his avatar, representing his friend status.
This is simply outrageous.
I thought that the blind date organized by Uncle Chen today was already a headache enough, but Old Tang came to give him a big surprise.
It’s not that he doubted Lao Tang’s level 5 hunter level, it’s mainly because this guy has a poor sense of direction!
In this small piece of land in China, an Asian man with poor directionality was running around with a first-class protected animal. The scene was so beautiful that even Russell couldn't imagine it.
It's simply a walking second-class merit.
Wouldn't this cause trouble for him?
"Old Tang, what have you been doing lately?" Russell called.
"It's a mission." Old Tang said excitedly, "You don't know, but I just received a very lucrative order. The employer is probably a rich young man with too much money to spend."
"You TM..." Russell opened his mouth and said, "You are the stupid young master."
"By the way, please send me your bank card number." said Old Tang.
"Why do you want my card number?" Russell asked.
"Don't you owe money? I'll transfer it to you as soon as I get the money to help you out of your immediate situation. Don't worry, I'm here and I won't let you end up selling hooks."
“…” Very good, Russell was silent again.
As soon as Old Tang opened his mouth, Luo became a clown.
This is nothing. Donald traveled thousands of miles and risked going to jail to make money for him to pay off his debts, and he, Luo, is still bullying him behind his back.
The situation quickly escalated to the point where Russell would slap himself twice and curse himself for being sick when he woke up in the middle of the night.
"Brother, why are you silent? Are you so moved that you can't speak? I'm not saying anything, we're all brothers, brothers, we're all brothers in our hearts, right?"
Old Tang's voice on the phone was still as funny as ever. Russell pressed his forehead and organized his words: "Brother, we're not short of money right now. There's no need for you to come here and take the risk."
"No, buddy, are you hallucinating? Why are you talking nonsense?" Old Tang still didn't believe it.
"Get lost. Seriously, I was the one who issued this escort mission for you."
Sensing Russell's tone wasn't fake, Old Tang asked doubtfully, "Didn't you say you lost money on your stock trading loans? How did you still have money to buy bears and tigers?"
"The stock market fluctuated greatly, so it turned around." Russell lied with his eyes open. Given the current environment of the A-share market, even if Buffett came, he would have to run back to the United States in a hurry.
"Really? Then I really canceled it." As Old Tang said this, Russell saw that Old Tang's account disappeared from the list of people who accepted the task.
He was well aware of his own situation. If the rewards of this mission were not so outrageous, he would not have thought of taking such a risk.
