You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

Zhang Qian blinked and chewed carefully twice.

"Um……"

Meeting everyone's expectant gaze.

He smacked his lips. "Just... cucumber flavor?"

"Cut~"

Wang Haitao didn't believe it, so he snatched it and took a bite.

"Hmm...it seems like it's really a little more juicy?"

Lin Jingyu leaned on the table with his butt sticking out, and then he landed on the ground, sighing with relief: "No matter how hard you try, it's just a cucumber. How can it turn into a fairy peach?"

As he said this, he picked a root, wiped it and put it in his mouth.

"Kacha!"

"Mmm, how sweet!"

"It's no wonder that the cucumbers grew from my pollination."

Zhang Qian, Wang Haitao: “???”

Are you sure it's sweet?

Su Chen cleared his strength.

Looking at the dozen or so cucumbers that finally grew, he slowly let out a breath, his eyes full of helplessness.

He silently calculated in his mind.

Even if a cucumber costs fifty cents, it's only six or seven yuan here.

It wouldn't be too much for him to draw 100 talismans with all his strength, right?

This is even more wasteful than "scattering beans to make soldiers"!

Feeling the strength in his body recovering little by little, Su Chen still shook his head subconsciously.

I will never do this kind of loss-making business again.

On the other side, Chai Daqian, Lao Liao and others saw Su Chen raise his head and cast expectant glances at him.

"Xiao Su, can we pick this cucumber?"

“Yes, we want to try it too…”

Su Chen nodded: "Pick them all. It's so cold anyway, if you don't pick them, they will easily freeze."

As he said that, he took the one from Lin Jingyu's hand, broke off a small piece, put it to his mouth and took a bite.

Mm, refreshing, crisp and sweet.

Finally, all my energy was not wasted.

Over there, everyone rushed forward.

"Don't rush, don't rush. Just use a knife to cut it. Everyone will have a share."

"What are you squeezing? Be careful not to squash the cucumber!"

"Hey hey hey, Xiao Xia, you're so heartless. You picked it and ran away. I'll break your legs..."

……

The crowd gradually dispersed, but the excitement did not fade away.

Kong Aichun took out a basin and a knife, cut the seven cucumbers he had collected, mixed them with sugar, and everyone happily divided them up before leaving.

Old Liao smacked his lips.

"Xiao Su, let's try something else next time, watermelon."

Chai Daqian's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes, yes, if I had a watermelon in the middle of summer, it would taste so good..."

Lin Jingyu gnawed on the end of a cucumber. "You guys are just daydreaming, aren't you? Isn't it easy to eat watermelon? I'll go to the wholesale market and bring back a cartload. Let's see if you can finish it all. Do you really need my buddy to urge you to eat it all?"

Lao Liao: “…”

"That's right!"

"It tastes the same anyway."

"Xiao Su, your magic is useless!"

Zhang Qian deeply agreed with this.

"It's a bit useless. Unless it's for rescue in extreme conditions and there's a shortage of food, it's useless."

Rescue in extreme conditions?

Then I'll put some seeds in the cloth bag later.

Chicken ribs are chicken ribs.

But within two or three hours, the news that Su Chen had grown cucumbers from seeds spread like wildfire, and the story became more and more mysterious.

By the evening, Zhang Yugui had heard that the immortal on Chunming Street had waved his hand and a cucumber on the table had grown in the wind. Soon, there were more than a dozen cucumbers. It was said that a bite of those cucumbers could prolong one's life...

Zhang Yugui, who was sitting at the table, said: "..."

Master Su does have extraordinary skills, but...

It’s not that mysterious, right?

He didn't believe it and called Zhao Dongsheng over to ask him a few questions.

As expected, drivers are the most informed.

"I heard it was some kind of experiment. It took two or three hours to grow. There were indeed more than a dozen cucumbers that grew, but they tasted pretty much the same as normal ones..."

Zhang Yugui: “!!!”

"Two or three hours?!"

"Isn't it just that cucumbers grow in the wind?!"

Zhao Dongsheng: “…”

"If you put it that way, it seems so."

All the businessmen at the table were dumbfounded.

After a long time, someone came over.

"Boss Zhang, I heard you have a good relationship with this master. When can you introduce him to me?"

"Yes, yes. With such a master here, I can have a fortune-teller before going out to do things, and I will have a clear mind."

Zhang Yugui waved his hand and said, "Hey, Master Su is a very kind person. He has a stall on Chunming Street. If you really need anything, just go there directly. No need for an introduction."

He complained in his heart: The favors I earned by working hard to help rebuild and repair houses are not for you to use!

Besides, who knows if you're a good person or a bad person? What if you're harboring evil intentions? If I introduce you to Master Su and he exposes you directly, wouldn't that be embarrassing?

As he was speaking, a sobbing sound came from the next box.

Zhang Yugui: “???”

"Who is it? A grown man, crying after drinking!"

There was gossip, so everyone stopped drinking and went out to check.

At this glance, someone recognized the person in the next box.

"Lao Xu, why are you drinking here? Come over to our place and have a drink."

The middle-aged man known as "Lao Xu" stood up and greeted them with a smile, then waved his hands repeatedly, pointing at the man who was crying with his hands covering his face: "Boss Qian, my brother has something to do today..."

I came here just for this matter.

Boss Qian pulled out a chair and sat down, and the people who followed him in also sat down.

Lao Xu: “???!!!”

"Brother, we're all in this world, what kind of hardship and sadness can't we overcome? Men don't shed tears easily, you know?"

"Come on, drink this glass of wine and stop crying!"

The crying man lowered his face.

Zhang Yugui and the others were all shocked.

That face is kind of horrible.

His nose was bruised and his face was swollen.

"Brother? You got beaten?"

Lao Xu: “His wife beat him!”

Boss Qian: "...Ah? Domestic violence? No, brother, you can't embarrass us men. Are you afraid of a woman?"

Lao Xu sighed, stood up and poured them some wine, explaining as he poured, "The one in his family is a tigress!"

Everyone was stunned.

Zhang Yugui was curious: "Then why was he beaten? Did he go out to wash his feet?"

"What? Even my brother wouldn't dare to do that."

Boss Qian: "Then why is that?"

Lao Xu: "...I just hid some private money, and it was squandered by my child."

"Hard-fought? Torn?"

Lao Xu said stubbornly: "Burn it as paper money!"

Someone outside the box exclaimed, "He's the unlucky guy who went to Chunming Street to have his dream interpreted today?"

Zhang Yugui recognized Zhao Dongsheng's voice and called him in.

Zhao Dongsheng immediately told the whole story.

Zhang Yugui: “…”

Fortunately, my family is still quite traditional in ancestor worship this year, and we still use gold and silver paper.

Boss Qian raised his hand high and patted the man's shoulder heavily: "Brother, I told you not to follow fashions so easily. Look, the old paper money is still the best. Who knows if your children are filial, they would burn straw paper instead, right?"

"Wow, wow, wow~ I worked so hard to hide 7 in private savings!"

"My condolences~"

"I couldn't even bear to smoke a cigarette, and that damn thing burned it."

"Go home and educate your child well. A child's character can be seen at the age of three. You have to hurry up."

"Wow~ I was so sad, and she still hit me!"

Boss Qian had been trying to hold back his laughter for so long, but he still couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Facing the man's bruised and aggrieved face, Boss Qian coughed twice and said, "Well, what kind of business do you do, brother Lao Xu?"

"Sandstone, what's wrong?"
