Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 340

Chapter 340: My Wife is So Good ( 1 )
Houzi smiled and said, “Uncle, these things are different from others. Eating these can enhance your health and cure minor diseases such as flu, fever, rheumatism, etc. The health benefits are better than taking medicine. So compared to the health benefits, these prices are very cheap.”

The old man hesitated and took out a small bag from his clothes. He opened the bag and asked, “Can I pay with these?”

Houzi wanted to refuse at first, but Bajie quickly said, “Boss, Brother Li said we can collect his payment.”

Since the owner of the thing agreed, he had nothing to say. He took the bag and saw ten gold coins inside. After calculating the value, he said, “Uncle, you can get 300 ml of tonic wine, 150 grams of each vegetable, two cans of wild honey, and some snacks.”

The old man was delighted and quickly selected the snacks he wanted and left in a good mood. Houzi recorded the items that the old man took and deducted the fees after all the items were sold.

After they divided the things based on the pre-order list, Houzi said, “Go and notify our brothers and ask them to deliver the goods before dawn.”

Bajie nodded and quickly informed the others, “Okay, boss.”

Houzi took five small bamboo tubes and put them into his bundle. Good things must be shared with family members. He planned to give one to his paternal Grandpa, one to Gu Mengyao, and one to Grandpa Gu and Grandpa Zhao. As for the other two tubes, he will send them back to his mother and uncle.

Not long after his paternal grandfather was sent to the Xie Village for reformation, his father was framed and executed. Before his father died, he sent his mother and himself to live with his maternal grandparents. Since then, he has lived with his uncle’s family. He joined the army at the age of 14 and retired at the age of 18 after he was framed.

After retiring from the army, he started working as a middleman in the black market. Since then, he has been working in this industry for more than 8 years. He got all the information about the government’s movement from Pan Meijia’s eldest brother who currently works in the government. Pan Meijia’s brother was also the one who introduced him to government officials and wealthy families.

As for Pan Meijia’s second brother, he worked in the army and was the one who recommended Li Chenmo to him. Houzi was very grateful for this. If his cousin hadn’t introduced Li Chenmo to him, he might not have made so much money right now. Therefore, he would occasionally send him some beef jerky or meat sauce.

After handling his own affairs, he checked at the jade and antiques he had collected. He made the list and kept it. When dawn approaches, the black market returns to calmness and is deserted. After calculating the profits and deducting his own share, Houzi put Lu Jueyu’s share into a bag, and then handed a wad of money to Bajie.

“This is your share and our brothers’ share. Go and divide it.”

Bajie took the money and said with a grin, “Thank you, boss.”

Houzi patted him on the shoulder and said, “Thank you for your hard work. When summer comes, everyone still needs to help take care of their work at home. So, tell them to divide into several groups and take turns coming to work. Now, we must work harder to get more money.”

“I understand, boss.”

At the same time, in Xie Village, villagers were busy working while children ran and played on the dirt roads. During this time, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu rarely go out and are busy harvesting vegetables, peaches, cantaloupes, and watermelons.

Due to the improvement of Lu Jueyu’s space, her space magic power also increased. Therefore, everything produced in her space contains more spiritual energy, including water. When she used water from the space to water her vegetable garden, it grew several times faster than usual.

Every day, Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo need to harvest vegetables and pick fruits. Fortunately, their home is located in a remote area, far away from the village. No one would know about it unless the villagers came to visit.

While they were working, there was a knock on the backyard door. Hearing the knock on the door, Li Chenmo frowned and said, “I’ll go see who it is.”

Lu Jueyu wiped her sweat and nodded. It was rare for people to visit through the backyard door. Most people who visit would knock on the front door because their backyard is connected to a bamboo forest and they need to take a detour to reach there.

Li Chenmo opened the door and was startled when he saw Houzi. Seeing him looking around, he asked, “Brother Houzi, what brings you here today?”

Houzi didn’t intend to stay too long and took out a bag from his clothes. He handed it to him and said, “I’m just here to send money and the pre-order list. There was a list of jade and antiques inside. If your wife is interested, I can bring it to her. The price is the same as before. ”

After Houzi finished speaking, he left in a hurry without waiting for Li Chenmo’s reply. Seeing how suspicious he was acting, Li Chenmo looked at his back thoughtfully. He locked the door and went to find his wife.

“Husband, who is it?”

Li Chenmo walked up to her, handed the bag over, and said, “It’s Houzi. He’s here to give you money. He also asked if you are interested in buying jade and antiques. The price is the same as before. If you are interested, he will send it over.”

Lu Jueyu opened the bag and saw the list. She took out the list and looked at it for a while, then said, “There are so many jades and antiques. I have to check them myself in case I bought a fake.”
