Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 257

The Land Cruiser is a seven-seater car, and it could seat five people, including him and Yanyan, so it was full in no time.

Others wanted to get in and squeeze in, but he refused. Overloading was not allowed, and he was not driving an illegal taxi to make money.

"Young man, why don't you make money when you have the chance?" the old man in the back row asked curiously.

The SUV was spacious and could seat seven people without any crowding. It could even accommodate two more people. This was the first time he had seen an illegal taxi driver refuse to give passengers a ride.

"Haha, I can't even earn enough to pay for the trip to the city with my wife."

"How much fuel does this car consume?" They felt something different when they got into the car. The materials used were really solid, unlike the metal cars like minivans.

"It's more than 20 miles in one trip, not counting the way back. The gas costs me or dollars, and I have to pay dollars for the bridge toll after getting off the bridge." Twenty-five dollars is not enough for five people.

If other cars or illegal taxis cross the bridge, they usually charge 20 or 25 yuan per person, and their fuel consumption is much lower than his.

Those cars all depart from the People's Square in the county, which is a longer distance, so the charges are naturally higher.

"That's really not profitable." The apparent accounts can be easily calculated. People just bring some people along for some fun.

When they arrived at the city's pedestrian street, he dropped the person off together. He definitely wouldn't send the person home for five dollars, as that would be too much of a waste. It would be enough to just drop the person off at the pedestrian street.

If you take a roll-on/roll-off ship, the journey is shorter, but you have to wait for the ship to depart.

In addition, his car was quite heavy and the toll was fifteen yuan, so he simply took the Yangtze River Bridge back and forth.

The car continued to Zhonghe Road and found a roadside parking space to park the car.

"Yan'er, come on, I'll take you shopping for clothes."

"Yeah." The little girl's face lit up with joy. She hadn't bought clothes for a long time.

The two got out of the car and started walking towards the pedestrian street. The little girl was no stranger to this place.

The Normal University she attended was just across the pedestrian street, and she had no idea how many times she had visited there.

But this time, with my brother by my side, I feel different, and my wallet is also full.

Finding the lingerie store they saw last time, Qin Dahe asked her to go in and buy clothes first.

"Your underwear is bursting. Hurry up and buy a few sets of clothes. Also, buy a couple of maternity pajamas. You're giving birth in winter."

"Brother, you are so thoughtful." The little girl said sweetly. Brother is so considerate that he even thought about giving birth and breastfeeding.

Qin Dahe couldn't follow him in, so he leaned against the roadside and lit a cigarette. He felt like he was going to die without smoking.

Take a deep breath, it feels great.

The sun is still scorching today. I was sweating at around eight o'clock in the morning, but there were still many people on the pedestrian street.

The Mirror Lake opposite was sparkling, and many people were resting on the chairs over there.

Further south is Shuangtong Lane, which is full of snacks. It would be nice to bring the girl here to eat something later.

After finishing a cigarette, the girl was no longer in the lingerie store. I guess she went in to change her underwear.

Women are naturally cautious when buying clothes. They will try them on constantly to make sure the style and size are right for them. Even then, they may not necessarily buy them. They like to compare prices from different stores.

After a while, the girl came out, leaned close to his ear and whispered a few words, asking him which style he liked.

"I want them all, haha." Qin Dahe took a look and chuckled.

"Bad guy." Her face turned red.

I went back and tried on two more pieces, only those that the brother liked.

I ran back and forth several times like this, and didn't mind the trouble.

But men still can’t enter lingerie stores nowadays, so this is the only way.

After a long while, the little girl finally came out contentedly carrying a big bag.

"Brother, is it very hot?" She took out a towel and wiped the sweat off Qin Dahe's face with concern.

There was air conditioning when I was trying on clothes, but it was very hot outside.

"It's okay, buy the clothes first, and then I'll take you to Shuangtong Lane to eat delicious food."

"Yeah." Thinking of Shuangtong Lane, the little girl's eyes suddenly lit up.

I like to go in there when I am studying. There are so many delicious foods.

The two of them walked hand in hand on the pedestrian street, and from time to time they would go to the clothes shop. Not only did she buy a lot of clothes for herself, she also bought two sports T-shirts for Qin Dahe. Even Qin's father and the others had something.

Qin Dahe is still wearing a pure cotton short-sleeved shirt. It is quite comfortable when he is not sweating, but it becomes smelly as soon as he sweats in the summer. Buying this is just the right thing to change into.

A sports T-shirt cost three hundred yuan, and the little girl felt a little distressed when she paid the bill.

The clothes on the pedestrian street are no cheaper now than they will be in twenty years. The saying that every inch of land is worth a lot of money is still true now, and business is so good.

On any holiday, the pedestrian street is crowded with people, bustling from morning to night.

Unlike twenty years later, there are few people on the pedestrian streets except on holidays, and physical businesses are getting worse day by day.

After changing into sports bra, Qin Dahe finally felt a little more comfortable.

There is a reason why it is expensive. It is breathable and comfortable. Even if you sweat, it will dry up after a while.

"Let's go, send the things back first and put them in the car."

"Yeah, it's really convenient to have a car." The girl smiled and took his hand.

She is so happy today. It is so nice to have her brother accompany her shopping. Her heart is flying.

When she was in college, she had been thinking about dating and getting married. She and her partner would go shopping and eat together on the pedestrian street, go to the park to watch people dance, and go to the Xinhua Bookstore to read books. There were so many things. Although her brother was a farmer, he was very good at making money and was very kind to her.

They spent more than two thousand yuan on clothes today, but her brother actually asked her to buy more.

But my brother works hard to earn money, so it’s enough for him to have enough clothes to wear.

She thought happily in her heart and held Qin Dahe's hand tighter and tighter.

After putting the clothes in the car and locking it, the two of them went back to eat.

They were hungry after shopping, and now they were talking non-stop in Shuangtong Lane.

I tried roasted pig's trotters, roasted hairy eggs, stinky tofu, and even had a bowl of beef noodles.

After eating, I went to rest on the bench beside Mirror Lake. It was more comfortable here without the sun.

"Brother, I'm so full." The little girl hummed as she touched her bulging belly.

"I'll be hungry again later, haha."

"Hey, how can it be so fast?" She nudged Qin Dahe's chest with her head in dissatisfaction and leaned forward.

Even in the middle of summer, the two of them didn't feel hot and just lay there on the bench.

"Brother, look, that beauty is so pretty." The little girl pointed at a fashionable woman who came out from the opposite side.

She was wearing something really cool. The upper body was a tube top and a denim short-sleeved shirt, and the lower body was wearing low-waisted jeans, which exposed her belly button. It was really avant-garde in that era.

She attracted a lot of attention, and everyone passing by took a curious look at her. The whiteness of her chest made many men drool.

"Hey, you're even more perverted than me, staring at people's breasts." Qin Dahe said with a smile. The little girl was like a hooligan.

She really had a good figure, and she was actually walking in this direction. The couple couldn't stop staring at her.

"It's just beautiful. You must want to see it too." She turned to look at her brother, and sure enough, her eyes automatically focused.

"To be fair, you should add two more pieces of clothing." He said with a smile when he saw the girl's eyes drifting over.

"What about the truth?"

"Well, it's fine like this. We men like to watch it."

"Pfft!" Yanyan laughed and pinched the soft flesh on his waist. "Then you said I was a pervert and you were staring at me."

"They are all very generous, so there is no need to be polite." Qin Dahe said indifferently.

This kind of dress would definitely be considered immoral nowadays, and many older people would point fingers at it, but twenty years later it was very normal, so he just took a few glances.

The woman happened to hear this when she passed by, and she smiled at them, as if to indicate her agreement with this statement.

"She even nodded at me. Do you want to go up and say a few words?"

"Just say what you want to say."

The woman was sitting on the bench next to her, humming softly with headphones on.

Yanyan hesitated for a moment, but decided it would be better not to go forward and speak.

Qin Dahe looked at the bench next to him with disdain and said loudly.

"Beauty, my wife wants to be friends with you."

The other party was stunned for a moment, took off his headphones and looked over here in surprise. It was normal to be approached, but what was the weirdness of being approached by a couple?

The little girl's face turned red, and she forced a smile and greeted the other person.

"Sister, you look so beautiful." She also secretly elbowed her man.

Really, brother is so bold, so skilled at picking up girls?

The other party was amused when they saw Yanyan's cowardly look.

"Hello." The woman came over generously. "My name is Li Ruru, and I'm a student at Jiuzi University."

Qin Dahe smiled and gave up his seat, letting the two chat. Anyway, he would not look at these avant-garde women with tinted glasses. Of course, he would not do that to his wife.

"Which university are you from? I just graduated from a normal college last year." The little girl said with a chuckle.

"I'm from Anhui Medical University, so you should call me your junior. I won't graduate until next year."

The little girl blushed again when she heard this. She had just called the other person "sister". It was so embarrassing.

The two exchanged names and started chatting right away. Qin Dahe smoked a little further away, giving the two some private space.

Many women completely cut off social interaction after getting married. It is normal for them to feel irritated when facing familiar faces at home for a long time.

But he learned his lesson. Yanyan cannot lose her job, but it’s okay to make some friends. Maintaining a healthy mentality is important for family harmony.

After thinking about it, he went to the nearby newsstand to buy a phone card so that he could buy Yanyan a mobile phone later.

She definitely needs a cell phone to make friends at work, at least so she can text with others. He remembers that Chen Wan also has a classmate named Nana, so they should keep in touch.

The two people here were still chatting, and it was even more surprising to find that they both had the same MP3.

MP3s are still quite rare nowadays, so it’s a rare opportunity to have the same model.

The other party's family was well-off, and he didn't look down on Yanyan for working as a civil servant in the countryside. Instead, he kept talking to her about school.

Since we are both studying in Jiuzi, we naturally have a lot to talk about.

　Don’t rush to vote for the monthly ticket. There will be double the amount at the end of the month. Just vote together then. It will only take a few days.
