Chapter 38 Ghost City
Qin Huairu left angrily.
He Yushui also wilted along with him, as if she wasn't the one who bared her teeth and claws just now, she timidly looked down at her shoes and didn't speak, feeling extremely anxious.
Too bad, Brother Gang is still watching from the sidelines, he must have seen all of his appearance just now.
It's all Qin Huairu's fault, it's okay to bully him, but he dared to stare at Brother Gang, so he couldn't hold back his anger at her.
Brother Gang doesn't think I'm that kind of unreasonable bad woman!
Thinking of this, He Yushui was so anxious that he almost cried again.
Wang Gang reached out and patted He Yushui on the shoulder.
"Okay, don't be too sad, it's over, it's not worth getting angry with someone like Qin Huairu."
"The door is open, don't close it, let's go back and continue eating!"
Qin Huairu couldn't make excuses, so she must be hiding behind her window and staring.
He Yushui was obediently dragged back to the dining table by Wang Gang, and looked at Wang Gang with tears in her eyes. She was also worried that Wang Gang would dislike her because of this.
"I'm not like this usually, it's because Qin Huairu is too bullying, I can't help it..."
Wang Gang looked at He Yushui with a smile, "You did a good job just now, that's how it should be. The weaker you are, the more people like Qin Huairu will push their noses!"
"Okay, let's eat, let's know you are amazing!"
It was the first time for Wang Gang to see another side of He Yushui. It turns out that she can also become tough, as long as someone is willing to stand behind her and support her.
To put it bluntly, the reason why He Yushui is weak and cowardly in the face of the Jia family is essentially because Sha Zhu not only does not stand by her, but also always helps the Jia family to bully her.
Over time, He Yushui will feel that he is naturally inferior no matter who he faces.
No one is willing to stand up for her, so she can only choose to be cowardly.
He Yushui raised his head, with a bright smile on his face, where he could not see the depression just now.
The two talked and laughed together after dinner, He Yushui went to wash the dishes, and Wang Gang got up to say goodbye and leave.
Passing by the window of Jia's house next door, I saw a flicker behind the curtain, and soon returned to calm.
Oh, Qin Huairu really doesn't give up!
After a good night's sleep hugging the duvet on the bed, a new day is about to start again.
Wang Gang got up early today, and he pushed his bicycle out before dawn.
Yesterday he inquired at the small market outside Yongning Gate that there was a ghost market at the root of Huangcheng in Xicheng, where live pigs and sheep could be bought.
The ghost market has its own rules. The market opens before dawn every morning, and it closes as soon as the sun shines, so it is best to go to the ghost market as early as possible.
Wang Gang rode his bicycle to the ghost market in the west city, the sky was still gray, and he saw a row of stalls arranged one by one next to the base of the city wall, covering a full two miles.
There are a lot of people setting up stalls, even more people visiting street stalls, and the ghost market is bustling with people.
Wang Gang took a quick look, and found that most of these stalls were selling old clothes and shoes. There was a broken mat on the floor, and all the things were piled up in a mess.
Most of them are rags that Wang Gang doesn't like, but they are hot items in the eyes of others.
There is no way, everyone is poor these days, it would be nice to be able to buy old ones for use.
After searching for a long time, and asking someone specifically, Wang Gang finally found a stall selling livestock under the willow tree beside the moat.
A big circle was made with ropes under the willow tree, and all the livestock were put together for selection.
Wang Gang took a rough look and found that there were about a dozen sheep inside, several big pigs, and a sow with a litter of piglets, seven or eight.
The sheep are goats, and the pigs are black pigs, both of which look very energetic.
There was even a newborn maroon foal in it, and I don't know which production team they got it from.
There are no large animals like adult cows and horses, which are probably too conspicuous to handle.
The stall owner is a middle-aged man with a loyal face, and he takes his wife and two children in their teens to help him manage the livestock.
Wang Gang reckoned that they lived near here. They usually went to the countryside to collect livestock secretly, and then hid them in their yards, waiting for the ghost market to sell them every day.
Wang Gang picked two little lambs and four little piglets, and bargained with the stall owner in whispers.
There are two lambs, one male and one female, and several piglets are ready to be weaned.
The main price at the stall was [-], which was obviously higher than the market price. Wang just bargained down the price to [-].
No way, the market price these days is meaningless.
Because if you go through formal channels, even if you have money, it is difficult to buy things, let alone these living things.
Wang Gang wanted to buy the pony as well. It would be nice to have a horse on the island, and it would be a good means of transportation.
The stall owner refused to let go of the 150 yuan.
In the end, it was Wang Gang who threatened not to buy, so the stall owner reluctantly agreed, and sold all these livestock to Wang Gang for 250 yuan.
Wang Gang thought two hundred and fifty was not good, so he took the initiative to add one yuan to the stall owner. The stall owner and his wife thanked them with a smile.
The current money is really too wasteful, Wang Gang can only sigh sincerely.
Last night, I only earned 200 yuan from the first and second uncles. I didn't expect that it would be gone before it was warmed up in my pocket.
Not only that, but also an extra 50 yuan of his own money.
The stall owner quickly packed the pigs and sheep into two bags, and put them on the back seat of Wang Gang's bicycle.
As for the little pony, there was nothing to be done. The stall owner handed over the reins to Wang Gang, and Wang Gang led it away by himself.
Wang Gang tied the little pony to the back of the bicycle, let it run along, and rode on the bicycle to find a deserted place outside the city.
Fortunately, it was still early, the sky was still dark, and there was no one around.
Wang Gang took them all into the island space, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
There is no need to keep these little guys in captivity anymore, Wang Gang simply raised them all on the island.
Anyway, with such a large island, even if they were allowed to multiply, it would take many years to occupy the entire island.
When they grow up, Wang Gang will have a steady stream of meat to eat.
Seeing the little ones running around the island full of curiosity, Wang Gang nodded in satisfaction.
He doesn't know anything about livestock farming, anyway, there is no shortage of vegetation on the island, enough for these herbivores to survive.
I hope they can live well on the island!
Wang Gang lay on the beach with his eyes closed, and said silently, "Sign in."
【Ding!Congratulations to the host, you got a set of sterling silver acupuncture needles! 】
【Ding!Congratulations to the host, get a high-carbon carbon fishing rod! 】
【Ding!Congratulations to the host, you got an outdoor hammock! 】
【Ding!Congratulations to the host, get a large beach umbrella! 】
Wang Gang got up from the beach in excitement.
He originally planned to find time to buy a fishing rod, but he didn't expect the system to be so considerate, so he immediately sent it to Wang Gang.
Picking two coconut trees not far from each other by the sea, Wang Gang tied up the hammock, fixed the parasol, and immediately lay down on it beautifully.
This is much more comfortable than lying on the beach before.
For a while, Wang Gang didn't even bother to dig for earthworms.
Fishing or something, let's talk about it when I wake up!
