Ultimately, he only had one son.
Having worked hard for most of his life, Shang Dayuan had only one wish: to get Shang Bao a " Fairness Card ".
Shang Dayuan knew that Shang Bao frequented this tavern, and even if he wasn't there indulging in a life of debauchery, someone probably still saw him.
The tavern was much busier than usual today, but Shang Dayuan still spotted the Luo family boy, who was gathered in a group of people, chatting idly.
Luo Tong was a regular at the tavern and also the neighborhood's "know-it-all."
Shang Dayuan called out loudly, " Luo Tong, have you seen Dabao? Do you know where he's gone off to?"
Luo Tong called out, " Uncle Shang." He glanced at the row of dark-skinned, muscular sons-in-law of the Shang family, and his voice became much more polite. "What, Brother Bao hasn't come home?"
Shang Dayuan: "He hasn't been back for two days."
Luo Tong thought for a moment and said, "That's true. I haven't seen him for the past two days. I thought he was busy fighting for the land... cough..." He stopped speaking to avoid provoking the hot-tempered Shang Dayuan.
A flicker of displeasure crossed Shang Dayuan's eyes, but he still patiently asked, "Did you see him the other day?"
"Yes, quite a few people saw it. He even treated everyone present to a drink. Hmm..." Luo Tong thought for a moment and said, "It seems he went to Master Bai's shack."
Shang Dayuan frowned. "What was he doing at Bai Jing's place?"
Luo Tong: " Master Bai hasn't been in the community these past few days. Has something happened in Liu Family Village? He probably won't be back for several days. Cough... Master Bai picked up a little girl. I heard she's Bai Jing. Brother Bao probably went to see her."
Shang Dayuan knew his son all too well, and immediately flew into a rage. "You good-for-nothing, you've even forgotten about home while playing!"
After saying that, he turned and left the tavern, heading towards the Bai Jing, white shack.
Luo Tong understood.
Shang Bao is living directly in a Bai Jing shack; he hasn't been home for two days.
He touched his nose, shook his head, and muttered, "What a mess."
I wonder if that girl is dead or alive!
Chapter 25
The first-class item was reserved for Qiu Shuyu.
Not to mention Tian Man and Luo Liuzi, Qiu Shuyu herself was also stunned.
She listened to Song Xiaozhu's conversation the whole time, and was both amazed by how many axes she had made in one go, and also completely bewildered by the distinction between first-class, second-class, and first-class products.
Second-class products are so expensive!
These are really good quality items!
After hearing this, Qiu Shuyu thought to herself, "I can sell the first and second batches for money. I can use inferior products, but Xiaozhu worked hard on them, so they shouldn't be wasted."
Little did she know that Song Xiaozhu had reserved the best for her.
Luo Liuzi couldn't help but ask again, "Will there still be first-class products in the future?"
Song Xiaozhu: "Yes."
"For sale!"
"Check the quantity. If it's enough for Sister Shuyu, we can sell the extras."
Qiu Shuyu hurriedly said, "I don't need it, you can sell it, I'll use..." She didn't mention the inferior product; she felt that none of the axes were inferior. She picked up the small, unwanted axe and said, "This one will do."
Song Xiaozhu shook her head, not in a hurry to explain anything to Qiu Shuyu, and simply said, "In short, it's not for sale right now."
Luo Liuzi was perceptive; even though he was itching to try it, he didn't bring it up again.
The girls have such a deep friendship, why should he interfere!
Tian Man nearby, asked curiously, "What about these inferior products? Are they for sale?"
Song Xiaozhu added, "Not for sale."
Tian Man hadn't originally intended to buy it, and had just nodded when Song Xiaozhu added, "I can give it to you."
Luo Liuzi Tian Man: "!"
They clearly hadn't expected Song Xiaozhu to be so generous.
Even a low-quality stone axe can be exchanged for money at a recycling station.
It'll be at least fifty cents, and if you're lucky, you might even get a dollar!
Before Qiu Shuyu could speak, Song Xiaozhu interrupted, "Let's be friends. This is my first time doing business. I hope Brother Man and Brother Liu will come and support me in the future. Um, it would be even better if you could introduce me to a reliable buyer."
She especially emphasized the word "reliable".
Tian Man and Luo Liuzi understood the meaning behind her words and felt her sincerity.
Song Xiaozhu is physically weak, so it's really not easy for her to do this business well.
They definitely wouldn't bully her, but as for the others... well, that's hard to say.
Luo Liuzi didn't stand on ceremony. "Alright, I'll take this one."
Tian Man smiled.
"I don't need any more. I'll just take what's available. I can't carry any more."
Song Xiaozhu didn't say anything more; a notification sound rang in her ear:
" Growth Quest 3, Quest Progress: 2/3"
This new friend is most likely Luo Liuzi.
Song Xiaozhu was just testing the waters, but unexpectedly, she achieved a certain milestone.
Making friends is something that can be very difficult, but it can also be very easy.
Some people can become friends just by exchanging a few words.
Some people will never be friends in their entire lives.
Of course, the former may not be immune to betrayal, and the latter may be capable of good cooperation.
In the end, Luo Liuzi bought one second-grade sword, two first-grade swords, and also took two inferior swords with him.
He had originally intended to take one, but Tian Man refused. Song Xiaozhu asked him a question, and Luo Liuzi happily accepted it. At the end, he winked at Qiu Shuyu: " Xiao Yu, you'd better use the first-class one, okay?"
Qiu Shuyu was fuming, but she didn't want to argue with Song Xiaozhu in front of others.
Tian Man originally only planned to buy two first-class swords, but after staring at the second-class swords for a long time, he couldn't resist and gritted his teeth to buy one as well.
I've made some money anyway, so I might as well indulge myself and have some fun.
As a result, Song Xiaozhu received 32 yuan.
If the displaced people in the Garbage Mountain saw this, they would be green with envy.
32 yuan!
Earning money so easily!
To be honest, Tian Man and Luo Liuzi were also a little envious.
They work hard all day, exhausted, and only earn forty or fifty yuan a day if they happen to get a rare rush order.
