Under the old locust tree next to the Ivory Mountain Big Foot Supermarket, a group of men, young and old, were leisurely playing chess and chatting.

The sunlight shines through the dense branches and leaves, casting spots of light, as if quietly listening to their stories.

"Get on the horse." Liu Neng, the Little Zhuge of Ivory Mountain, said after leisurely picking up the teapot and taking a sip.

"Gongzuo." Village director Wang Changgui responded after taking a puff of his cigarette.

On the chessboard, chariots and horses are everywhere, soldiers and pawns are facing each other, and every move contains the chess player's careful consideration and decisive decision.

The people watching the game sometimes frowned and sometimes smiled knowingly, as if they were also in the middle of this fierce game.

At this time, Li Fu, wearing a big gold chain around his neck and holding a briefcase in his hand, walked out of the supermarket with a swagger, looking very proud.

When he saw the lively scene under the old locust tree, he stopped and watched with interest.

"Hey, this chess game is so exciting!" Li Fu said loudly, with a smug look on his face.

When everyone heard the voice, they just looked up at him and then turned their attention back to the chessboard.

Li Fu was not amused, but he was not angry. He shook the big gold chain around his neck and walked over to Liu Neng and said, "Liu Neng, you play chess very well!"

Liu Neng glanced at him and said slowly, "That's right, I'm very smart."

After saying that, he stared at the chessboard intently again.

Li Fu was making himself look bad, so he turned to Wang Changgui and said, "Changgui, you smoke in style."

Wang Changgui raised his eyes slightly and exhaled a puff of smoke: "Li Fu, why are you hanging around here if you don't help Da Jiao with the supermarket business?"

Li Fu chuckled: "I heard the commotion outside, so I came out to take a look."

The situation on the chessboard became increasingly tense, with both sides going back and forth, neither giving in. The spectators held their breath, watching every move nervously.

Li Fu was also attracted by the tense atmosphere. He temporarily forgot about his own boasting and focused on the chessboard.

Under the old locust tree, the atmosphere became increasingly solemn. The game between Liu Neng and Wang Changgui entered a white-hot stage, and every step affected everyone's heart.

Suddenly, Liu Neng's eyes lit up and he shouted, "General!"

Wang Changgui frowned, stared at the chessboard for a long time, and finally shook his head helplessly.

"Haha, Director, thank you very much." Liu Neng smiled proudly and put down the teapot in his hand.

People around started talking about it. Some praised Liu Neng for his excellent chess skills, while others felt sorry for Wang Changgui.

Li Fu couldn't help but sigh: "Liu Neng, you are amazing, this chess game is amazing."

At this time, a voice came from the Big Foot Supermarket: "Li Fu, what are you doing? Come and help clean up, the Daguo will deliver the goods soon."

Li Fu came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly: "Here it comes."

He glanced at the chessboard reluctantly, then turned and walked towards the supermarket.

A car roar was heard, and Li Daguo drove a small truck slowly over and stopped steadily in front of the Big Foot Supermarket.

Li Daguo jumped out of the car and greeted everyone enthusiastically: "Everyone is here."

Everyone responded, and Liu Neng said with a smile: "Daguo, it's time to deliver goods to Big Foot again."

Li Daguo nodded: "That's right, the supermarket business is good recently, and my aunt asked us to send more goods."

He opened the door of the truck and started moving the goods.

Xie Da Jiao walked out of the supermarket and directed Li Daguo to place the goods: "Daguo, be careful, these are all fragile items."

Li Daguo responded and moved the goods skillfully.

The men, young and old, under the old locust tree looked at Li Daguo's busy figure and started chatting again.

“This great country is becoming more and more capable.”

"Yeah, this pickup truck drives pretty well, too."

Everyone was talking at once.

Soon, the goods were moved. Li Daguo wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Xie Dajiao, "Aunt, everything is ready. Please count it."

Xie Da Jiao looked at the neatly arranged goods with satisfaction, picked up a bottle of soda and handed it to Li Daguo: "Daguo, thank you for your hard work, I will ask you to deliver goods next time."

Li Daguo took the soda, took a sip, and smiled: "Okay, aunts are all family members, call me anytime if you need anything."

After saying that, Xie Da Jiao turned around and walked into the supermarket.

Li Daguo looked at the way Li Fu and Xie Dajiao were dressed and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his uncle Li Fu and his aunt Xie Dajiao were really impressive, wearing all branded clothes and gold and silver jewelry. They looked more like city people than himself, who was working as a transporter outside all day.

He wondered when he could live that kind of life. He heard that since Li Tian returned to Xiangyashan, Li Fu and Xie Dajiao's life had taken off. The Dajiao store had become a Dajiao supermarket, and they even lived in a European-style building. Looking at the two BMWs parked in front of the supermarket, he was even more envious.

Li Daguo secretly glanced at Li Fu a few times, then rolled his eyes, smiled, and said flatteringly: "Uncle, look at what you are wearing, it's really so stylish! This brand-name clothes makes you look like a big star. And look at this gold chain, who would have thought you were from our small mountain village? You are much more fashionable than me."

Li Fu is a person who likes to show off and likes others to flatter him.

After hearing this, Li Fu puffed out his chest proudly and said with a smile: "Great country, you can't be envious, these were all bought for me by my little Tian."

Li Daguo quickly continued the conversation, his tone as sweet as honey: "Uncle, Xiaotian is really promising, you will be very successful too. You have such a capable nephew, you are so lucky that others will envy you so much."

Li Fu's face was filled with more pride. He cleared his throat and said, "Daguo, don't be so envious. Back then, I, Li Fu, was a well-known figure in this village. When I was young, people looked up to me wherever I went. Now that Xiaotian has made great achievements, it's all because of my good guidance."

Li Daguo was speechless after hearing what Li Fu said. Everyone knew Li Fu's past. He was good at eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. But he had something to ask Li Fu. He wanted Li Fu to help him find some work in Li Tian's company.

So, Li Daguo nodded and said, "Yes, yes, uncle, you have always been awesome. Look at how prosperous the supermarket business is. You will definitely have a better life in the future. We can only watch you live a miserable life and drool."

Li Fu waved his hand: "It's nothing. In the future, our family's good days are still to come. Xiaotian said that he would find us a bigger business."

At this time, Xie Da Jiao walked out of the supermarket.

She heard Li Fu bragging and rolled her eyes at him: "Li Fu, just keep bragging! Hurry up and count the goods again, don't make any mistakes."

Li Fu chuckled and said, "I'll listen to you, I'll listen to you."

The men and women of Ivory Mountain Village under the old locust tree couldn't help laughing when they saw Li Fu's appearance.

Li Fu has been behaving pretty well recently, being very obedient to Xie Da Jiao, but he still hasn't changed his bad habit of showing off.
