Do you also want to adopt Doro?

The person they were waiting for was Li Ying's younger sister, named Li Meng.

According to the regulations of Caiyu Fresh Fruit Company, every person who owns shares in the company is required to sign a contract with at least one business agent after reaching adulthood.

Li Meng is 6 years younger than Li Ying.

She dropped out of high school.

Huang Musong was the first salesperson her sister arranged for her.

Not long after...

Huang Musong stared at the shop entrance.

I recognized the other person at a glance.

Li Meng and Li Ying share the same parents and look remarkably alike. The younger sister is like a younger version of her older sister, radiating youthful energy, but she's not pretty.

same,

The sisters have similar personalities.

Li Meng boldly linked arms with her boyfriend as they stepped into the milk tea shop.

Because she started school late, Li Meng, who dropped out of high school, was already 19 years old, so it was normal for her to be in a relationship.

She recognized Huang Musong at a glance.

Walking briskly to the table, Li Meng was more decisive than her sister, throwing the keys to the resettlement house directly into Huang Musong's arms.

"I'll coordinate work matters with my sister."

"Pay me the rent via WeChat in three months. Don't wait for me to urge you."

"Oh, right! My sister said that thing is called a doro, right? Can you sell me your doro? The price is negotiable."

Li Meng speaks even faster than Li Ying.

And their words are spoken without thinking.

Say whatever comes to mind.

She found Doraemon quite fun, chubby and interesting, and asked without thinking if she could buy one.

Doro cowered and hid behind Huang Musong.

It trembled and clung tightly to the person's arm, seeking refuge.

Sold off?

very scary!

Doraemon is unwilling to leave people (Huang Musong).

With its big, blinking eyes, Doro raised its little head and gazed at people, its pitiful eyes filled with pure pleading. At that moment, its eyes seemed to speak, saying, "Please don't sell Doro, Doro will definitely be more obedient from now on~"

Similarly, Huang Musong didn't want to leave Doraemon!

He didn't think anyone would cherish this chibi-style little guy more than he did.

Furthermore, the fragments of memory flashing through his mind confirmed that he absolutely could not sell Doraemon.

[Excerpt 1: You didn't sell Doro because it's your partner, friend, and even family. Doro is happy and plans to find a job it can manage, which might help ease your financial burden...]

[Excerpt 2: You sold Doro and received a large sum of money. But Doro was unhappy in his new owner's home, often going hungry. Deprived of food for an extended period, Doro became anxious and began attacking anyone who approached him. Ultimately, Doro was abandoned and left to die...]

It's clear that Li Meng isn't a bad person who abuses animals. However, simply treating Doraemon as a pet is definitely not enough.

Doro deserves the best treatment!

Huang Musong believes that Li Meng is good at raising pets, but not suitable for taking care of Duo Luo.

So he silently shook his head, firmly expressing his refusal.

Li Meng was only interested in Doraemon. Since its owner didn't intend to resell it, she decided to let it go.

She glanced at Doraemon one last time, took her boyfriend's arm, and casually took the fruit tea from the table.

Doro timidly peered at Li Meng's back until she completely disappeared from sight, then let out a long sigh.

Its heart was pounding, and it was still a little scared, so it took a big sip of fruit tea to calm itself down.

The coolness of the iced drink calmed Doraemon down.

Moving closer to the person, Doro began to wriggle and cling to him, pleading humbly, "Human, thank you~! I, I'll eat less in the future, I won't eat so much food anymore. Doro was so scared just now, afraid you would agree to sell Doro..."

Once worries arise, they take root like seeds, tending to sprout deep within the heart.

Huang Musong never expected that Duoluo would be so afraid.

That's right!

It has only been a week since I took in Doraemon, and I haven't completely forgotten the memories of wandering alone.

It must be terrified of being abandoned again.

Like a wound, healing takes time, and even after it heals, it will still leave a scar.

Huang Musong knew that all he could do was try his best to bring more happiness to Duoluo in the future.

Only happiness can suppress painful memories!

Thinking about these things secretly,

He stroked Doro's head.

They comforted the young and innocent hearts with silent actions.

Don't worry.

"I will take care of you forever..."

Huang Musong used his most sincere comfort to dispel the seeds of worry in the little guy's heart.

Doro was so comfortable that he couldn't help but murmur softly.

Soon, perhaps tired from eating, it yawned and fell asleep in Huang Musong's arms.

Before closing his eyes, Doraemon clutched his clothes tightly, afraid of being abandoned while he slept.

Huang Musong, however, suddenly noticed something strange...

What happened?

There was an inconspicuous red mark on Doro's back!

The red marks were not obvious, and there was no bleeding, so no scabs were visible.

Based on his childhood experiences with his parents' discipline, Huang Musong recognized the marks as those from a willow whip.

Who whipped Dorje with willow branches?

I didn't go out yesterday...

We spent a few days together...

The only possibility is Thursday!

Huang Musong concluded that Duoluo was beaten on Thursday afternoon when he was picking up bottles.

Thinking about the little guy being bullied,

Doro, trembling with fear after being whipped by willow branches, curled up in a ball...

The scene he imagined made Huang Musong blush instantly!

His skin turned red.

Huang Musong didn't immediately wake Doraemon up to ask him questions, thinking that Doraemon might be afraid of getting into trouble and wouldn't say who had whipped him.

In a couple of days, find an opportunity to ask again, and you'll find out.

An eye for an eye must be retaliated against!

Huang Musong decided to seek justice for Duoluo.

-----------------

next day

Huang Musong brought Duoluo to the company's orchard early in the morning.

The office building is the company headquarters, but the orchard is the foundation; all profits depend on the fruit sold.

As a newly signed business agent

During his probationary period, Huang Musong was assigned to a small orange grove.

As is well known, oranges are an autumn and winter crop, ripening from November to February of the following year.

It's May now, and there are no oranges on the trees at all; even the green, sour oranges haven't fully grown yet.

Using oranges as an agency project,

When Li Ying and Li Meng first learned of this...

Both sisters thought Huang Musong had gone mad.

Regardless of whether he can find distribution channels and sign contracts,

Even if we find a source, how can we make money if there's no orange supply?

Could it be that this guy is planning to stall until winter before selling oranges?

Regarding the questions,

Huang Musong did not answer.

He brought Doro and the Howling Whale watering can to the greenhouse orchard.

The orange trees in the orchard are growing very well.

While no one was around,

Huang Musong started asking Duoluo to help water the orange trees one by one.

Watering isn't tiring, and Doraemon is happy to do it.

Huang Musong, who was standing to the side, was also busy! He took out his notebook and calculated the ripening period of this batch of oranges based on the crop cultivation data provided by the company.

Because the Howling Whale watering can has a limited number of uses per day.

This will result in different early ripening dates for different orange trees!

Take a statement to avoid any oversights that could lead to unnecessary losses.

Doro didn't understand the details of business; all it knew was that it was watering the Orunji tree.

The watered iris trees will bear bright orange iris fruits. A vast field, with countless iris trees—there will be an endless supply of iris fruits to eat!

Imagine being able to eat Orunji, which I've personally watered!

At this moment, Doraemon was extremely excited and busied himself with work.

Doro was happy, and Huang Musong was also pleased.

The morning's work was completed quickly.

It's lunchtime again.

The new company cafeteria offers excellent food, and it's close to the new residence. After a hearty meal, Doraemon went to his new home for a nap.

The resettlement housing was advertised as 50 square meters, but it's actually only 45 square meters.

The 5-square-meter shared area is just right for storing recyclables. If Doro goes out to collect bottles in the afternoon, he won't have to make an extra trip every day to sell them.

It has a small living room, making the living space much more spacious, much better than a basement.

The only downside is that it's a bit pricey.

Located in the suburbs of the capital, the rent for a house of several dozen square meters is 2,000 yuan per month, with utilities included, which is equivalent to about 1500 yuan per month.

Although there was no rent to pay for the first three months, Huang Musong still had to plan ahead.

It's one o'clock in the afternoon.

Huang Musong rode the company shuttle bus alone from the suburbs back to the city, trying to build relationships with the owners of various fruit shops.

Fruit shops, whether chain stores or self-operated, regardless of size, have already found suppliers before opening the store.

If we approach fruit shops to discuss cooperation now, it's tantamount to stealing their business, so we have to make concessions on terms of profit.

Despite the generous rebates offered, nothing was accomplished throughout the afternoon.

Huang Musong was unable to sign a supply contract with any of the fruit shop owners.

Until 4:30,

The evening rush hour has begun.

The fruit shop is seeing a surge in customers, and the owners are all very busy.

Huang Musong wisely refrained from discussing business with the store, and instead squeezed in an hour of delivery work.

The company shuttle bus back to the town departs at six o'clock.

In one hour, Huang Musong earned 30 yuan, which, though not much, was enough to buy some snacks for Duoluo to take back and eat.
