Chapter 3706 The Beauty of My Hometown
"Tch, believe you?"

Qi Xuan'er said disdainfully, "Don't think I don't know about your dark history. When you got into a fight at the computer mall, Zhong Lianwei bragged that you were a fierce tiger descending the mountain, sweeping away all obstacles. He said you beat Ye Jinghai so badly that he ended up in the hospital, and you even beat up that jerk Zhai Shaobai. He made you sound so civilized, even though you're weak as a chicken."

Zhao Chang'an smiled but did not answer, focusing on driving.

The cannon has already been lit for you. Whether you understand it or not, whether you do it or not, is your own business and also the fate of Lao Zhou and the others.

Besides, I didn't intend to change history; I merely acted as a small catalyst, accelerating the chemical reaction.

Even now, Ma Er's heart is still pounding wildly as he sits down, and he's covered in cold sweat on his scalp and back.

"Second brother, should we run away?"

Stick was also trembling, and his voice trembled and changed: "I was panicking. Daoist Master was wrong and was fed peanuts."

"No need. Boss Zhao is a man of great importance. We used to follow Master Xu and later we followed Young Master Xu. He knows that and he still values ​​our past relationship. Otherwise, he would have attacked us just now. We'll go find Brother Wang later and ask him to talk to Young Master Xu. As long as Young Master Xu agrees, everything will be fine."

At this moment, Ma Er saw Xiao Zhou carrying the tray over, so he stopped talking.

Xiao Zhou had a stern face, his eyes revealing obvious disdain and contempt. 'Duang, Duang' He slammed two bowls of soup onto the table, along with two plates of sesame seed cakes, which bounced loudly as they were thrown.

Looking at the two bowls of clear soup, which usually had at least a few scallions on them, but not a single one today, Ma Er finally showed a look of shame and anger.

Although he was a good-for-nothing and a complete scoundrel, he still had his pride!
"Old Zhou, you're making a fortune every day now. In just a few years, you'll be the richest man in this area."

Zhao Chang'an's words just now felt like a needle pricking his heart, and they resurfaced at this moment.

"It's a small business, and we rely on everyone's support."

The smug look on Old Zhou's face was just... damn it!

A ruthless grin appeared on Ma Er's face as he said in a low, vicious voice, "Since you're so unrighteous, don't blame me for being unjust. I'll give your business a good patronage, you tycoon!"

"What, Second Brother?"

The stick didn't hear clearly.

"Drink your soup, I'll talk to you later."

Ma Er suddenly remembered that a few days ago, when he went to his elder brother's office to get a bowl of braised noodles, he overheard some of the managers at the comprehensive market gossiping that Lao Zhou had decided to stop using his daughter-in-law Hu Qian's sheep and instead planned to buy three truckloads of sheep from the counties below and hand them over to several families in the suburbs to raise. If he needed to slaughter the sheep, he would have those families bring them over one by one.

"Mutton is eight or nine yuan a pound now, and each sheep can yield fifty or sixty pounds. Three truckloads of sheep is almost two hundred. If Lao Zhou sells all these sheep, how much money can he make?"

"Otherwise, how could they let their simple-minded son marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law like Hu Qian? We can only earn six or seven hundred a month. It's infuriating to compare ourselves to others. We can't help but envy them!"

"Hu Qian is such a good woman, yet the Zhou family has to smear her like this, damn it!"

"Didn't you see Old Zhou hire two more big-legged, big-butt female waitresses? That Xia isn't all that great, but that Liu is really good. Although she's also a rough girl, she has a pretty face." "Damn it, if Hu Qian were my wife, I'd wash her feet every night."

"You still want to drink her foot bath water? Don't even dream about it!"

"Ha ha!"

At this moment, Ma Er was thinking about how he had also been grinning lewdly back then, thinking about Hu Qian's charming appearance, but he completely ignored the previous statement about buying three cartloads of sheep. While cursing himself for being so stupid, he couldn't help but reveal a bloodthirsty excitement in his eyes.

Zhao Chang'an led the girls to the city's largest shopping mall. As a junior, Ye Yiyi had to bring some gifts. This time, she brought a wild ginseng from the Xing'an Mountains that was fifty or sixty years old, and a box of wild horns such as antelope and rhinoceros cut into small pieces. Especially this box of things, which are now very difficult to find in China.

It's not expensive, but it's basically impossible to buy.

Antelope horn has the effect of promoting lactation, while rhinoceros horn has the effects of calming the nerves, clearing heat, and detoxifying. Wenye's grandfather had left a lot of it before, but later many people borrowed it to grind into powder, and they never returned it, so in the end there was nothing left, it was all borrowed.

However, besides these two items, Zhao Chang'an suggested that Ye Yiyi buy some other things suitable for the elderly, such as biscuits, canned goods, sausages, instant noodles, candy, and dried fruit.

Ye Yiyi was a little confused, since it wasn't worth much, but she still obediently did as she was told.

Seeing this, Qi Xuan'er, Wang Yu, and Fan Chufei also wanted to buy some gifts. Zhao Chang'an was naturally happy to see this and enthusiastically offered them his suggestions.

They bought a whole bunch of things, and the four women each paid their own bills. Even Ye Yiyi, who spent the most, only spent a little over three hundred yuan.

Then the group returned to the car and headed straight for Peach Blossom Lake Scenic Area.

This time, Zhao Chang'an once again chose to travel along the riverside road on the north bank of Taohua River. In late February, the weeping willows on the bank had begun to sprout buds, looking from a distance like a light green veil shrouding the ancient willows.

Peach Blossom Lake has begun to release water partially, and the water level in the river has risen. Egrets are catching fish in the shallow water, and because of the intense sunshine, some fishermen who couldn't resist the urge to fish have already set up their lines on the riverbank.

The south bank is a vast expanse of green, rolling low hills covered with trees, contrasting sharply with the large clusters of buildings on the north bank, including many high-rises under construction, creating a breathtaking scene.

The boardwalks along the river, and the wooden pavilions and towers built on the shallow water, give this south bank a sense of the weight of time. Although these are all newly built attractions in recent years, after two or three years of wind, rain and sun erosion, they have begun to show that sense of vicissitude.

"This place is so beautiful!"

Sitting in the back row, Wang Yu exclaimed, "Zhao Chang'an, your hometown is so beautiful, why didn't you invite us to come and visit sooner?"

"I admit this place is beautiful, but there are countless places like this all over the country. Compared to Mingzhu, it's incomparable. So it's fine for you to come here occasionally for a quick look, but if you were to live here for a long time, you would be jumping up and down with reluctance."

Zhao Chang'an's words made Wang Yu laugh, and she complained, "Why did you have to be so clear? It's like I don't understand. Besides, I was praising your hometown. You don't need to analyze it so bluntly. Just say thank you happily. I've always thought my hometown is the most beautiful."

"Thank you, I've always thought my hometown is the most beautiful."

Zhao Chang'an said something very seriously, which made the girls in the car laugh, although Zhao Chang'an didn't think there was anything funny about what he said.
