Chapter 279 - Lobster Farmer
Chapter 279 of "Peach Blossom Divine Medical God" opens presenting: They reached the roadside, found the car, and the four of them got in together.Sitting... Donât stop now!
They reached the roadside, found the car, and the four of them got in together.
Sitting in the car, Wu Kexin couldnât help but speak up.
âChen Yang, how much was that meal just now?
I should transfer the money to you.
You guys have helped me so much, I really feel bad for having you treat me,â
Chen Yang glanced at her through the rearview mirror, âYou donât need to worry about it, village chief, it was just a meal, right?
You can just treat us next time.â
âYeah, Kexin, itâs not like this is our only outing.
There will be plenty of chances in the future!â
Yang Ruoxi also chimed in, supporting Chen Yangâs view.
Seeing that everyone was saying this, Wu Kexin could only nod in agreement.
âAlright then, I really agree this time.
The next time we go out together, I must be the one to pay.
Nobody else should argue with me, or Iâll really get angry.â
The three of them couldnât help but laugh at this remark.
They simultaneously promised in unison.
âSure, next time we wonât fight with you to pay the bill.â
The four of them joked and laughed as they turned the car around, ready to leave this place.
But as it happened, a van drove by the car at that moment.
Chen Yang glanced at the van and then noticed that it seemed to be full of small crayfish.
Seeing this, Chen Yang immediately thought of what the old man had said before.
The reason their restaurantâs crayfish were expensive was that the raw materials for crayfish had become expensive.
The delicious taste in the restaurant was also due to the quality of the crayfish.
Seeing a van loaded with crayfish at this moment naturally sparked Chen Yangâs curiosity.
He decided to follow and see where this person was taking the crayfish and what the prices were like.
With this thought in mind, Chen Yang immediately stepped on the gas and chased after the van.
The van wasnât driving fast, and Chen Yang caught up in no time.
Just as he caught up with it, the van made a turn, left the main road, and entered an alley.
Then it turned again and came to the back of all the storefronts on the night snack street.
It then stopped in a place that was still quite well-lit.
Chen Yangâs car was still some distance from the van, so it hadnât been noticed by the vanâs driver.
Or perhaps they were simply not careful enough to look.
After all, buying some crayfish wasnât illegal.
Who would be so cautious as to check for someone following them?
After the van stopped, a middle-aged man wearing a white tank top, with a cigarette in his mouth, and a scruffy beard got out right away.
He looked sloppy, like the kind of vendor who hangs out in markets all year round.
As soon as the vendor got out, he opened the trunk of the van immediately.
Then he began to unload the crayfish.
Basket by basket.
Even though there was no water in the baskets, it was still obvious that the crayfish were alive, hopping and jumping around.
After unloading all the crayfish, the middle-aged man looked around.
Seeing that there was nobody around, he tossed away the cigarette butt from his mouth and lit a fresh one for himself.
He then squatted down and started smoking, looking like he was waiting for someone.
âChen Yang, whatâs this place?
Why did you drive us here?â
At this time, the three women in the car noticed the dark surroundings and couldnât help but ask.
Chen Yang looked back at Yang Ruoxi and then said with a smile, âItâs nothing.
I was just curious about why the crayfish we just ate were so expensive.â
Chen Yangâs words left the three women somewhat baffled.
They felt a bit confused.
âWere the crayfish at the restaurant expensive?
How much did you pay?â
Yang Ruoxi paused for a moment before asking persistently.
Chen Yang almost spit out a mouthful of blood in shock.
âYou ordered the crayfish.
Didnât you check the price?â
Yang Ruoxi felt a bit embarrassed, âI really didnât lookâŚ
I never pay attention to prices when I eat.â
Chen Yang was suddenly speechless.
Sheâs really the daughter of a wealthy family, never looking at the price when eating!
âAll rightâŚ
the meal we just had cost over thirteen hundred yuan,â
Chen Yang said after swallowing hard.
âOver thirteen hundred?â
Yang Ruoxiâs face was expressionless, âThatâs not expensive at all!â
Chen Yang: ââŚâ
âDo you know how much normal shrimp cost on the market?â After another bout of speechlessness, Chen Yang asked in return.
Yang Ruoxi shook her head innocently, âI donât know.â
âNormal lobsters on the market are one yuan each, the expensive ones are around two yuan, but the ones we ate today were basically four yuan each, even five yuan.â
Chen Yang patiently explained, then shared his curiosity.
He told them that he just wanted to study this thing.
Chen Yang said a lot at once, and the three women approximately grasped his point.
âSo thatâs how it is.â
âAre you investigating this, are you thinking of getting into lobsters now?â
Li Han nodded as if she had come to a realization, then asked out of curiosity.
She remembered that when Chen Yang had decided to get into wild mushrooms, he had been this curious.
âIâm not without that idea,â
Chen Yang said with a nonchalant smile, then opened the car door, âWait for me up here, Iâll go down and find out whatâs going on.â
After speaking, Chen Yang got out of the car.
Watching Chen Yangâs retreating back, Li Han was dumbfounded.
âThis guy, really wants to investigate any way to make moneyâŚâ
Li Han couldnât help but comment.
Pfft.
Wu Kexin covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
âLooks like Chen Yang is going to have another job, not just as a doctor but also as a farm entrepreneur.â
âAnd heâll become a professional lobster breeder.â
As soon as Wu Kexin said this, Yang Ruoxi and Li Han burst into laughter.
The three women teased Chen Yang in the car, unaware that he couldnât hear a thing.
The soundproofing of the luxury car was indeed good.
After getting out of the car, Chen Yang walked straight towards the middle-aged vendor.
Since this wasnât a shady business, Chen Yang naturally wasnât worried that the vendor might be wary of him.
Chen Yang approached the vendor with normal steps.
Seeing Chen Yang coming over, the vendorâs face showed surprise at first, then he stood up nonetheless.
âAre you the new guy from that shop?
How many lobsters does your boss want today?â
The vendor stood up and said this, catching Chen Yang somewhat off guard.
He was being mistaken for a helper from a night snack shop.
âBoss, Iâm not anyoneâs helper, I just think your lobsters seem really good, can I take a look at them?
We might even be able to work together later,â
Chen Yang stated truthfully.
As soon as the vendor heard that Chen Yang wasnât a helper from a nearby night snack shop, he seemed to lose interest.
But after taking another look at Chen Yang, he agreed.
âYou can look, but donât mess around, these shrimps are all fresh,â
said the vendor as he squatted back down.
Then he took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it for himself.
This guy, he never seemed to be without a cigarette in his hand.
âOkay, thank you,â
Chen Yang didnât mind him and, seeing that he had agreed, immediately began to examine the crayfish.
