Chapter 112 He who does not heed the advice of his elders will die before my eyes!
As expected, Zeng Xiaoxian's fire extinguisher malfunctioned.
When Zeng Xiaoxian poured a bucket of cold water on the flustered Hu Yifei.
"Snapped!"
Chen Xiaobai went over and put the pot lid on.
The matter was perfectly resolved!
And so, Zeng Xiaoxian met his tragic end!
Hu Yifei holds grudges, especially when Zeng Xiaoxian threatened to sell her fire extinguishers during her critical moment, and even then, he couldn't put out the fire!
Snap! One! Flash! ~~~
Zeng Xiaoxian, dead!
......
Just kidding, how could I treat Zeng Xiaoxian like that? We're friends.
He was only partially paralyzed, but he managed to escape!
......
Valentine's Day.
Valentine's Day is the day with the most intense fighting since World War II.
The death toll is in the trillions!
However, Qingqing didn't have this awareness and ran away early on.
Who knows, family members!
On such a romantic holiday, she actually went to work.
The magazines were full but there was nowhere to put them, and all the preparations had been in vain.
I had planned to go out during the day, but Qingqing didn't come back until evening.
It's going to rain tonight, please!!!
As for how he knew, it's because he was cheating.
But that's the reality, so we have no choice but to accept it.
......
I just saw Chen Meijia directing Lu Ziqiao and Lu Zhanbo, the class beauty.
Move the flowers!
This is a moment not to be missed.
It's not that I want to help the class beauty, but today, one person will owe another person ten slaps.
He was quite interested in the notary who had slapped him!
And he also wanted to add ten more slaps!
After the flowers were moved, Chen Xiaobai went out.
Let's go straight to 3602.
Wow, Mika, you bought so many flowers!
Although I had made some preparations, the fact that the entire room was filled with roses was still quite impressive.
"Hard work leads to wealth! I've already found the perfect stall location, and I'm sure I'll make a fortune tonight!"
Mika was arranging her flowers in the living room, talking without turning her head.
"You get rich through hard work, but for us, hard work is deadly!"
Lu Ziqiao lay on the sofa, patted Lu Zhanbo's shoulder, shook his head and sighed, then looked at Chen Xiaobai with a resentful expression: "Xiaobai, you came just in time, we just finished moving these thousands of flowers~"
"I'm so tired I don't have any energy left tonight!" Lu Zhanbo slumped on the sofa, not wanting to move at all.
Everyone: "..."
Lu Zhanbo: "What I mean is... I'm so tired, I don't even have the energy to go back to my room tonight..."
"Tch~ Why are you two grown men making such a fuss about carrying a few flowers!" Chen Meijia said dismissively.
"Are you out of your mind? How many flowers are there?"
Lu Ziqiao was having some existential doubts. Pointing at the room full of flowers, he said indignantly, "There are thousands of these. What are you going to do with them? Play the role of a flower fairy?"
"Even a novice knows I'm going to sell flowers!"
Chen Meijia continued fiddling with her flowers, casually saying, "This is my new way to make money!"
Lu Ziqiao: "Tch~ I've never seen a fangirl get rich!"
"Today is Valentine's Day, I'm going to sell all these flowers. I bought them for two yuan each, and I can sell at least twenty-one tonight!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Meijia perked up, immediately counting on her fingers and muttering her plan, even starting to calculate seriously.
"There are at least two thousand roses here! If we calculate it this way, one times seven equals seven, two times seven equals forty-eight, and so on... (This is a numbered list of holidays and festivals, not a coherent sentence.)"
"Gaga gaga gaga gaga gaga..."
The three of them fell silent as they watched Chen Meijia, who was lost in her own fantasy.
Lu Ziqiao patted Lu Zhanbo's shoulder helplessly, "See, I told you this toad didn't need to be cooked, it would just inexplicably boil over by itself!"
"What kind of toad can boil?" Chen Xiaobai asked in confusion.
Lu Ziqiao gestured towards Chen Meijia with his lip: "Look, that toad, all he does is fantasize all day long, that's called self-conquest."
"Are you really going to sell flowers? That's really hard work!" Lu Zhanbo was a little confused and ignored Lu Ziqiao, instead asking Meijia.
"Hard work leads to wealth! These flowers will definitely be snapped up in no time!" Chen Meijia clapped her hands, lost in a beautiful fantasy.
Lu Ziqiao stepped forward and poured cold water on her dream, saying, "You're dreaming! If you can't sell a single flower, let's see if you'll still be laughing!"
"How can it be!"
Chen Meijia countered, then began to explain her point of view: "Every man who falls in love will buy a rose on Valentine's Day; it's a market demand!"
Lu Ziqiao astutely pointed out the bitterness of men in later generations: "This is not a real market, it's a federation of suckers!"
Chen Xiaobai sighed inwardly. Love Apartment was still too ahead of its time, or rather, these phenomena were already emerging in big cities at this time.
Later, young men and women brought these problems back with them when they returned to their hometowns for the Spring Festival, and they gradually spread throughout the country.
Lu Zhanbo nodded in agreement, "I like this name!"
However, Lu Ziqiao pointed at Lu Zhanbo and said, "He's a sucker. He spends two yuan a day normally, but twenty yuan today. He spends two hundred yuan a day normally, but two thousand yuan today. It seems like he's getting good value for his money, but it's all just fluff. This is the bubble economy!"
Then, looking at Lu Zhanbo, she asked, "Mr. Sucker, are you really willing to spend this money?"
Lu Zhanbo: "I...!"
"Look, the sucker is starting to reflect on his actions!"
Lu Ziqiao interrupted his hesitation and said seriously, "This kind of fake price gouging should have been resisted long ago, and this is the one that should be criticized the most!"
As he spoke, Lü Ziqiao pointed to the pots on the table and shouted, "Roses!"
clap clap ~
Chen Xiaobai couldn't help but applaud him. "Ziqiao, what you said is very good, but we can't change anything. We can only join in, or make sure we don't get integrated, but that would make us seem out of place..."
"Xiaobai is right!"
Chen Meijia put her hands on her hips and said confidently, "Since we can't resist, let's just enjoy it. I believe most people will buy my roses!"
"Oh, there's already an online coalition against exorbitant Valentine's Day spending and boycotts of arbitrarily priced roses, and it's already got over a million members!"
"I advise you to cancel it as soon as possible, otherwise what if you can't sell it after 12 o'clock? Will you just use it to make salad?"
Lu Ziqiao walked up to Chen Meijia and began to boast, his words sharp and incisive.
However, whether it was just his imagination or not, Chen Xiaobai actually saw a hint of worry in Lu Ziqiao's eyes.
"Don't worry!"
Chen Meijia crossed her arms and looked at him with disdain. "I'm sure I can sell them all before 12 o'clock and give this bullshit theory and the Poverty Alliance a resounding slap in the face with my actions!"
Lu Ziqiao scoffed: "There's an old saying, 'Those who don't listen to the elders will die in front of me!'"
Chen Meijia didn't back down: "Want to gamble? One million, okay! Oh, I forgot, you old man are a penniless pauper!"
"Don't regret it, Chen Meijia!"
Lu Ziqiao, provoked, retorted angrily, "Since you're so stubborn, let's go big! Let's wager the ultimate prize in the martial arts world: the Tathagata Palm!"
Chen Xiaobai immediately became excited, "I want one too, I want one too, I want to participate!"
