C38 – For the Sake of Revenue

The automobile zipped alongside the newly paved highway, lifting everybody’s spirits.

What was as soon as a two-hour journey now took a mere ten minutes on the graceful floor.

However the twin trails of mud left behind had been certain to rankle the employees.

“We simply obtained this mounted! And now it’s all soiled?”

“The place did this automobile even come from?”

“Shh, preserve it down. That’s the boss who footed the invoice for the roadwork. He can journey nevertheless he pleases.”

With that, the employees fell silent.

It wasn’t till they hit the principle highway that Solar Ying took the wheel.

“We must always get the automobile washed.”

Zhao Yuegu surveyed the thick layer of mud caking the automobile and determined an intensive wash was so as.

Driving round like this may earn them nothing however scorn.

But, after being turned away by three automobile washes, they’d no alternative however to accept a smaller operation.

“Child, the place have you ever been driving? Your automobile’s a multitude.”

The chatty automobile wash uncle marveled on the sight, having by no means encountered such a unclean automobile in all his years.

The dried mud was virtually armor.

“I can wash it, but it surely’ll value further.”

“That’s nice.”

Because the high-pressure water jet stripped away the grime, the automobile’s clear strains emerged.

“Did you modify this automobile? It seems prefer it’s seen loads of off-road motion.”

“Solely the rich can afford to go off-roading.”

However because the automobile’s true kind got here into view, the uncle’s jaw dropped.

“Holy cow!”

“Is {that a} Lamborghini?”

“You took this off-roading? What had been you pondering, buddy?”

“This has obtained to be model new, proper? It’s obtained to be price over three million. I’ve by no means seen something prefer it in all of Zeffari County.”

The automobile wash uncle was staggered.

Nobody of their proper thoughts would topic such a automobile to this sort of remedy.

However Zhao Yuegu had completed simply that.

It was past perception.

The automobile wash uncle was nonetheless in a daze, watching Zhao Yuegu and his companions drive off till he lastly snapped out of it and referred to as a longtime good friend.

He’d have sufficient to speak about for months!

Zhao Yuegu wasn’t too involved, although. Getting on the highway was the precedence.

“Let’s hit the freeway and head for Everbreach Metropolis.”

“Yabei, you haven’t forgotten your house handle, have you ever?”

Ma Yabei’s cheeks turned pink.

In spite of everything, nowadays, actors usually maintain extra renown than many nationwide heroes.

As soon as he’s completed distributing the seeds, he’d quite return to the sincere work of tending his fields.

Nevertheless, Outdated Mr. Ma, although showing mild, had a pointy edge to him, and Zhao Yuegu most popular to maintain his distance.

Even when he was Ma Yabei’s grandfather.

“I’ll depart the sunflower seeds right here. That is all I’ve introduced. I must be on my means and gained’t be staying.”

With a well mannered bow, Zhao Yuegu readied himself to depart.

Life within the village was extra to his liking—carefree and unbound.

Outdated Mr. Ma was clearly a shrewd man, seemingly with hidden motives in his phrases.

As an easy farmer, Zhao Yuegu wasn’t fascinated about enjoying thoughts video games.

Higher to return and domesticate extra land.

After leaving the seeds with Ma Yabei, Zhao Yuegu stated his goodbyes and headed again to his automobile.

“Wait, don’t depart! You’re welcome to remain a couple of extra days.”

Ma Yabei was clearly getting anxious.

“You’re at all times welcome to go to Walden in the event you discover the time; I can’t simply abandon the crops within the fields.”

Zhao Yuegu, nevertheless, confirmed no indicators of wanting to remain, urgent Solar Ying to go again.

Solar Ying, for her half, regarded visibly downcast.

“Boss, I’m begging you, present some humanity.”

“We’ve been on the highway for 3 hours. Can’t we at the very least take a brief break?”

“Alright, let’s simply discover someplace to seize a chunk.”

“Okay, I do know an incredible spot.”

With that, the automobile began up and regularly pale from Ma Yabei’s view.

Ma Yabei opened her mouth as if to talk, her eyes brimming with reluctance, and at last, she simply sat down on the bottom.

“Grandpa, he’s my good friend!”

Outdated Mr. Ma’s forehead furrowed.

“You’re nonetheless too younger. I wouldn’t oppose you marrying a farmer.”

“Your great-grandfather was a farmer, in spite of everything.”

“However might a farmer actually afford such a pleasant automobile? His intentions can’t be that simple.”

“But, he left fairly decisively; he’s definitely fairly the character.”

Outdated Mr. Ma regarded visibly torn.

He’d been sizing up folks all his life and prided himself on his accuracy.

However this younger man, he was arduous to learn.

His complexion and fingers instructed he’d been laboring within the fields for years.

But, there was one thing about his eyes, his demeanor, that didn’t fairly match with simplicity.

After which there was the automobile—far too flashy.

Whilst an outdated man, he might inform it was price a reasonably penny.

As for the seeds he introduced, they meant nothing to him.

Did he suppose it was nonetheless the times when pigs might outrun elephants?

The concept that one acre of oilseed might yield oil from six acres was laughable!
