After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 242: Selling Polygonatum, someone from the Ding family is coming!

After a night of rain.

The rain stopped, but the sky was still overcast, with occasional breezes.

The temperature dropped significantly overnight.

Chen Yang also took out the coat that was at the bottom of the box.

Although he is physically strong and not afraid of the cold, he doesn't want to be treated as an outsider.

It was just past eight o'clock when Huang Can arrived.

I'm going to the county to sell Polygonatum today.

The two men loaded the Polygonatum odoratum they had harvested yesterday into the pickup truck, and drove away without even having breakfast.

It was only nine o'clock when we arrived at the county town. We first went to Taihetang to sell Polygonatum odoratum.

40 yuan per pound, and a total of about 2 yuan was sold.

After dividing the money, the two of them started walking around Taihe Hall, looking for a restaurant to have breakfast and lunch.

"Why don't we go to a buffet? There's a barbecue buffet over at Heping Bridge. It's 68 yuan per person. Feel free to show off!"

Huang Canke was still thinking about the bet between them. He had put in so much effort yesterday and won against Chen Yang, but Chen Yang still owed him a barbecue.

Self-service?

Chen Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this.

With his appetite, if he went to a buffet, he would probably be kicked out by the boss.

Just as he was about to say something, a car stopped at the door of Taihe Hall and a man got out of the driver's seat.

Chen Yang was stunned for a moment.

"Isn't this Zhang Yafeng?"

Huang Can also saw the people getting off the car, and he quickly waved and called out, "Brother Feng."

Zhang Yafeng looked in the direction of the sound and was slightly startled when he saw the two people.

"What a coincidence, why are you here?"

Zhang Yafeng walked over, a little surprised, but his eyes fell on Chen Yang.

He and Huang Can had only met a few times and were not very familiar with each other.

"I dug some Polygonatum sibiricum yesterday. Taihetang happened to be collecting it, so I sent it over to be sold." Chen Yang gave a brief explanation.

At first, Zhang Yafeng thought Chen Yang was talking about gold. He was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was talking about Polygonatum sibiricum.

"Brother Feng, what are you doing here, seeing a doctor?"

Taihetang is one of the best traditional Chinese medical clinics in Lingjiang County and is quite famous.

Chen Yang's question is a bit redundant.

People who come here only come to buy medicine or see a doctor.

Zhang Yafeng looked a little unnatural when he heard this. "You may not know that Taihe Hall is the property of the Xue family. Xue Qi's sister has recently been transferred to Lingjiang for work. She may stay in Taihe Hall in the future..."

"Oh……"

Chen Yang said "oh" meaningfully.

I had heard from Zhang Yafeng before that Xue Qi was trying to introduce one of his sisters to him and recruit Zhang Yafeng as his brother-in-law.

Now it seems that the matter has been settled. Zhang Yafeng must have come here to find someone for a date.

"Well, Brother Feng, you are busy, so we won't disturb you."

"do not."

Zhang Yafeng called him, grabbed Chen Yang's arm, and pulled him to the side of the road, "Xiaoyang, do you still have the shampoo you gave me last time?"

He lowered his voice, but his eyes were very earnest.

"Shampoo? You mean hair growth potion?"

Chen Yang was stunned for a moment, then said, "Also, how, is it useful?"

“It works great. It works great.”

Upon hearing that there was more, Zhang Yafeng obviously couldn't suppress the smile on his face, "If you have time, get some more for me, your brother..."

He looked around like a thief, stretched out his hand to peel off his scalp, lowered his body, and quietly moved the top of his head towards Chen Yang, "Look, do you see it?"

Chen Yang took a look.

Many densely packed black spots could be seen on the originally shiny scalp.

hair.

The originally barren land has started to grow some problems.

"It's absolutely amazing."

Zhang Yafeng quickly put the wig back on and said seriously, "I've only washed my scalp a few times, and I feel it's frizzy. I've been taking good care of it these past two days. I thought it was a skin allergy at first, but when I looked in the mirror yesterday morning, I found that I had grown a lot of stubble. Xiaoyang, your hair growth potion is really amazing..."

At this point, Zhang Yafeng became so excited that he started swearing.

Hair loss has always been a concern for him, and only people who have actually suffered from hair loss can understand his current mood.

Over the years, he had tried countless methods, seen countless doctors, and used countless medicines, but none of them could cure his ancestral hair loss. He never expected that a bottle of medicine from Chen Yang would give him hope.

He is now pursuing Xue Qi's sister, and he is afraid that others will see his ugly side, so he is very eager now.

I urgently want to cure my hair loss, grow a head full of black hair, and get rid of the image of a mediocre uncle.

"This is about my brother's happiness, Xiaoyang, I'm counting on you."

Zhang Yafeng patted Chen Yang on the shoulder and said, "If possible, give me a few more bottles of hair growth water. My mother and sister also need them. As for the price, you can charge whatever you want. There's no need to be polite with me..."

"Small things."

Chen Yang smiled.

He didn't have much contact with Zhang Yafeng, but this man gave him the impression of being quite honest.

The two families are distantly related, so their relationship will naturally be closer than that of ordinary friends.

There is no need to talk about money in everything between friends. Chen Yang is also happy to help him. After all, giving timely assistance can be considered an investment.

"Xiaoyang..."

Zhang Yafeng was about to say something else when his cell phone suddenly rang.

He took out his cell phone and looked at it, his brows slightly frowned, and his expression changed slightly.

He gestured to Chen Yang to wait and turned to the other side to answer the phone.

Chen Yang vaguely saw the caller ID on his mobile phone screen.

Charlie Chan.

It was the man from Hong Kong Island who called him.

……

About two minutes later, Zhang Yafeng hung up the phone and walked over.

The expression on his face was already very serious. "Xiao Yang, I have something else to do. I'll leave first. Let's talk another day. Don't forget what I told you."

Without waiting for Chen Yang to say anything more, Zhang Yafeng ran towards where he parked his car and left in a hurry.

"what is wrong?"

Huang Can walked over, his face full of confusion.

He didn't know what the two talked about, he just saw Zhang Yafeng leave in a hurry.

"do not know."

It must be no trivial matter that could make Zhang Yafeng so anxious that he turned around and ran away even though his girlfriend was missing.

A call from Charlie Chan.

Could it be that something happened to those Panshan people they sent to Mixian Gou?
Thinking of this, Chen Yang's eyes became somewhat deep.

However, he did not care too much about it. After all, it had nothing to do with him.

"Let's go and eat. I'm too lazy to choose. Let's just go to the barbecue buffet I mentioned. I'll save you some money."

Huang Can shrugged angrily. His stomach had been growling with hunger for a long time. It was almost eleven o'clock and he hadn't had breakfast yet.

……

-

Heping Bridge, a barbecue restaurant.

It was not yet time for dinner, so there were only one or two tables of people there, and there was a billboard hanging at the door.

It says [Big Eater Challenge] on it.

The two of them leaned over to take a look.

If you can finish eating 10 kilograms of barbecue within half an hour, you will be considered a successful challenge. Not only will you get a free meal, but you will also receive a cash reward of 888 yuan from the merchant.

In the era of self-media, some businesses use certain means to attract food bloggers and internet celebrities to promote their stores, which is a common marketing method used by some businesses.

It is already a very common operation and is not considered surprising.

"Isn't this coming?"

Huang Can's face was full of smiles, and he was already eager to try it as his stomach was rumbling.

I originally wanted to go for the buffet, but immediately changed my mind.

"Ten kilograms, can you eat that?"

Chen Yang looked at him with some amusement.

That's ten jin, not ten liang. Even if it were him, he might not be able to stuff it in.

A strong physique does not mean a large stomach capacity. Although Chen Yang can eat more than before, he is not confident enough to eat ten kilograms of meat in one meal.

"I feel like I can eat a whole cow now."

Huang Can was also very hungry, so he immediately called the boss over.

The boss is a middle-aged fat man with a small nose, small eyes, and a big round face. He looks very materialistic.

When he heard that Huang Can wanted to challenge him, he did not hesitate and immediately asked someone to make arrangements.

After a while, the fragrant barbecue was served on the table, and a circle of onlookers gathered around.

It turns out that people like to watch the fun.

Chen Yang didn't like the scene of being watched by everyone, so he simply turned himself into a tool and filmed video footage for him.

"Huang Can, the internet celebrity in our county, was exposed offline by me. He ate ten kilograms of barbecue in thirty minutes. Is he just bragging or is he really capable? Come and see..."

The boss shouted, briefly explained the rules, and started the timer.

Huang Can couldn't wait any longer and started eating immediately.

He kept putting pieces of grilled meat into his mouth as if they were free.

"Oh my god, how long has it been since you last had meat?"

"Dude, slow down, don't choke."

"Oh my, these internet celebrities nowadays really have no bottom line. They dare to eat anything for traffic." "Damn, I'm hungry just watching this."

……

The onlookers were talking at once, and of course there was some harsh noise.

Huang Can, however, pretended not to hear anything and concentrated on drying the meat. In just two minutes, he had finished at least two kilograms of barbecue on the table.

This is already more than the average person's appetite.

But Huang Can seemed like he was not full yet. He did not slow down at all and ate everything in no time, like a starving ghost reborn.

Chen Yang was also very surprised. He didn't expect that this kid could eat so much.

I guess it's the fire silkworm in his body that's causing trouble.

The fire silkworms are improving Huang Can's physique, but this also requires energy. For Huang Can, eating is the fastest way to absorb energy.

At this moment, Huang Can felt like there was a fire burning in his stomach. The food he ate was quickly burned up by the fire and then transformed into streams of heat. Some of it dispersed throughout the body, while the other large part gathered in the lower abdomen.

He knew in his heart that it must be the fire silkworm that was absorbing his energy.

The speed of decomposition and absorption was so fast that it almost reached a balance between supply and demand, making him feel hungry all the time.

Eat, eat, eat.

Now, there is only one word in his mind, that is, eat.

He had said before that he was so hungry that he could eat a cow, and he was not kidding at all.

The amount of barbecued meat was reduced one by one, and soon it reached three kilograms, five kilograms...

The voices of doubt around were becoming fewer and fewer, and the only words left from those who were watching the fun were exclamations of surprise.

Even the shop owner was shocked.

He has been following Huang Can for a long time, but he never expected that this kid Huang Can actually has such a unique skill.

In just eight minutes, he finished ten kilograms of barbecue.

"Fuck, that's awesome, this is the first time I've seen someone eat so much."

"That's fake. Even my pigs can't eat so much."

"The boss is losing money..."

……

Huang Can finished eating and burped loudly.

"Boss, is there anything else? I'm not full."

He looked like he had only eaten half full, with an expression that showed he was still unsatisfied.

Oh my god, ten kilograms of barbecue. Are you still not full?
How big is the belly? Is this still a human?

There were exclamations from all around, but Huang Can's face was full of smiles.

Unlike Chen Yang, he just likes the feeling of being the center of attention.

"This……"

The boss's face twitched. When he set this challenge, he never thought that anyone could succeed.

After all, it’s ten kilograms of meat, how big a stomach can hold it?

And it was barbecue, so dry. You chewed ten kilograms of it without drinking water? And you had to finish it within half an hour.

It's not real just thinking about it.

Since his shop opened, many people have come to challenge him. The one who ate the most ate five kilograms in just half an hour.

He set the rule at ten kilograms, and he didn't intend for anyone to take advantage of him. All of them had to advertise for him for free.

Who would have thought that Huang Can would teach me a lesson today.

Not only did he finish ten kilograms of barbecue, but he also did it in just over ten minutes.

However, the rules are made by oneself. With so many people watching, it is impossible for the boss to deny them and do something that would destroy his reputation.

……

"Chen Yang, let's go to another place. I'll treat you."

Coming out of the barbecue restaurant, Huang Can was holding 888 in cash in his hand and was in a very happy mood.

He just ate ten kilograms of barbecued meat, but he didn't feel full at all. Instead, he wanted to have another meal. It happened that Chen Yang hadn't eaten anything yet, so this guy started planning to have another meal.

"You should eat in moderation. You'd better control yourself at this stage. In your current situation, if you overeat, you will provide too much energy to the insect, which will easily lead to the servant being strong and the master being weak. It may even turn around and bite the master..."

"The Devourer?"

When Huang Can heard about the insects devouring their host, he shuddered and panicked, "Then I just ate so much..."

"Once or twice occasionally, it doesn't matter."

Chen Yang shook his head. "That bug has a certain degree of intelligence. You can't just think about taking from it. You still have to give it some benefits occasionally. You must control the degree. The main problem is that you are too weak now and it is easy for it to counterattack. So, give it more sticks and less sweet dates. Don't let it become too strong all of a sudden..."

This kid doesn't know anything, so it is really necessary for Chen Yang to give him some advice.

Otherwise, if he really messes around, he might end up killing himself without even knowing what happened.

"How about you think of a way to help me pick this bug?"

After hearing what Chen Yang said, Huang Can became a little worried again.

This feeling is like someone has placed a time bomb in your stomach, and you never know when it might explode.

"This……"

There was really no way Chen Yang could remove the worms now.

He was about to say something when a figure blocked their way.

An old man in his sixties.

He was not tall, his back was a little hunched, and he looked very thin, as if he would fall down if the wind blew.

"Hey, old man, walk carefully."

Huang Can lost his balance and almost bumped into the old man.

"Cough cough."

The old man coughed lightly, "Young man, why are you so angry?"

His voice was a little hoarse, as if there was phlegm stuck in his throat, and it sounded a little uncomfortable.

While speaking, the old man casually reached out and touched Huang Can's belly.

"what?"

However, before he could touch Huang Can, he felt someone grabbing his shoulder.

The old man turned around and saw that it was Chen Yang.

"what are you doing?"

Chen Yang pulled Huang Can behind him, grabbed the old man's shoulder with one hand, and looked into his eyes with sharp eyes.

The old man was shocked by Chen Yang's eyes and was speechless for a moment.

"Sixth Grandpa, I told you long ago that this person is not a simple person, but you still don't believe it."

At this time, a voice came.

Chen Yang looked back and frowned slightly.

A young man came from behind.

She was dressed casually, about eighteen or nineteen years old, and looked a little immature. However, the arrogance between her eyebrows could not be hidden.

Chen Yang knew this person.

The young man who followed Ding Lianyun that day.

Chen Yang didn't know his name, but he was sure that he was from the Ding family, the grandson of Ding Lianyun.

The young man slowly approached and looked at Chen Yang with a smile, "We meet again."

As he said this, he stretched out his hand, wanting to shake hands with Chen Yang.

Chen Yang glanced at him but ignored him.

"Why, we haven't seen each other for a few days, don't you recognize each other?"

The young man was not amused, but he was not angry. He touched the tip of his nose in dismay and said, "Let me introduce myself to you again. My name is Ding Shaoxian, and the person next to you is my sixth grandfather, Ding Lianshan..."

"Sorry, not interested."

Chen Yang interrupted his self-introduction and loosened his grip on the old man's shoulder. "We have something else to do. Please go ahead."

After saying this, Chen Yang wanted to take Huang Can away.

"stop!"

Ding Shaoxian growled, his expression somewhat unpleasant, and his voice suddenly rose several decibels, "You seem to dislike me?"

Isn't this obvious?

Chen Yang couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "We are very familiar with each other, why should I wait to see you?"

"you……"

Ding Shaoxian paused.

He had never expected that Chen Yang would have such an attitude. He had even taken the initiative to approach him, but the other party was so indifferent. It could be said that he really didn't give him any face at all.

In fact, he could fully feel Chen Yang's hostility towards him.

This hostility is not concealed at all.

"I won't tell you. I'm going to find him."

Ding Shaoxian immediately put away his smile, suppressed his unhappiness, and pointed at Huang Can who was standing behind Chen Yang.

"I?"

Huang Can was stunned. "Hey, buddy, do we know each other?"

He looked at Ding Shaoxian carefully and was sure that he had never seen him before.

Ding Shaoxian came to Huang Can and asked meaningfully, "How do you feel after eating so much barbecue?"

Huang Can frowned slightly and didn't answer him.

"hehe."

Ding Shaoxian chuckled, "Death is imminent, and you don't even know it."

"What did you say?"

Huang Can’s eyes suddenly widened. “You little bastard, are you cursing me to death?”

Ding Shaoxian had an unfathomable expression on his face. He pointed at Huang Can's stomach and said, "There's something in your stomach..."
