Chapter 171: Chapter 171 - A Bookstore Full of Salted Fish

The next morning, Zhou Ze was still sitting on the sofa next to the glass window of the bookstore, reading the Yangtze Evening News.

In front of him was a cup of coffee and a small cake.

Boss Zhou’s life was so leisurely, so useless, so unmotivated, just muddling along, just muddling along.

At that time, Xu Qinglang had criticized Zhou Ze for having no future if he continued to muddle along like this. He was too lazy and wasted his rebirth,

most importantly, he wasted his “Golden fingernails.”.

And then..

Xu Qinglang could not change boss Zhou’s continued decadence. Instead, he was assimilated by Boss Zhou.

He was originally a second generation demolition worker who had more than twenty apartments,

he still managed to run his own business and noodle shop without losing the goal of his life,

he was slowly turned gay by Boss Zhou,

he also became a salted fish who started to care for his skin and beauty.

In fact, Zhou Ze felt that his current life was pretty good. There were many novels and books in the bookstore, as well as a lot of rebirth literature. After rebirth, each of them looked like they had a bitter grudge against each other. They were either kings or tyrants, or they were the laughing stock of the world.

When the old priest had nothing to do, he would also flip through these books and read them. He would always say that the boss was different from the people in the books.

However, the old priest could also feel relieved. The books, of course, were fake. Moreover, the protagonists in the books really spent their days in the Sun with their own boss,

who else would read them?

The readers would run over to watch you bask in the Sun every day, bask in the Sun, bask in the sun again, and bask in the sun again?

The priest in spider-man’s clothes was cleaning up. He was very meticulous and did not miss a single detail. He always carried out Zhou Ze’s instructions without any discount.

Bai Yingying was somewhat glad that this “Colleague”was a man. Otherwise, she would have to face competition again.

After the initial hesitation, the old priest was also used to the presence of priests. Although they could always smell the smell of roasted meat when they slept in the same room at night, he was slowly getting used to it.

Now, the old priest could finally find some time to lie down on a sofa, drink some tea, read some porn, and enjoy life leisurely like his boss.

Business during the day had always been quiet.

There weren’t many customers.

So..,

the owner of the bookstore was sunbathing and reading the newspaper,

the old priest was drinking tea and reading porn,

xu Qinglang was making his own new cocktail,

bai Yingying was using her cell phone to call glory of the dead,

the little monkey was secretly eating the old priest’s peanuts and then lying there to sleep when he was full,

the whole room was filled,

the smell of salted fish was everywhere,

it did not fit in with the crowded atmosphere of the south street commercial street outside the house.

It was not until noon that a customer came to the door.

Xu Qinglang raised his head and saw that it was a young man who came in. The man was quite tall and looked gentle and weak, but his face was full of stubble. It was obvious that he had neglected to take care of something recently.

Xu Qinglang was very dissatisfied that someone was disturbing him. He turned his head and looked at the “Lowest consumption per capita is 100″sign, wondering if his house was not dark enough?

Why not change it to “1,000”next time?

Otherwise, there would always be people who felt that they had some money and wanted to feel the bourgeois atmosphere coming in to disturb him.

It was clearly a ghost business. Why would the living always join in the fun?

He would sit here for 100 Yuan, read a book, and drink some instant coffee or milk tea,

484 idiots?

The man pointed at the wine glass in front of Xu Qinglang and said,

“Cocktail.”

Then, the man sat down in front of Xu Qinglang.

Xu Qinglang nodded. Although he felt uncomfortable being disturbed by others, he was, after all, from the catering industry, so he wouldn’t do anything to customers.

At that moment, a cocktail was quickly prepared and sent to the man.

The Man took a sip and was quite satisfied. Then, he leaned on the bar counter and looked at Xu Qinglang with his head on his pillow.

At first, Xu Qinglang did not think much of it, but the other party continued to lie there and drink a mouthful of wine. Then, he continued to look at Xu Qinglang and drink another mouthful of wine. Then, he continued to look at Xu Qinglang.

Xu Qinglang felt like he was being treated as a dish by the other party.

Beauty could be eaten by a woman. It could be considered to be more of a compliment, but elder Xu had always felt that he was a man,

oh, no..,

he was a man, not a man.

This made old Xu feel a little uncomfortable. He said unhappily, “Do you want more wine?”

“You’re so Pretty.”

The man suddenly laughed.

He had a look of a man.

Xu Qinglang let out a long breath and licked his lips. He was going to hit someone.

“Hey, you’re so pretty. Many men must like you, right?”

The man asked again.

Xu Qinglang rolled up his sleeves and was ready to hit him.

“There must be some. Hehe, you want to hit me? Do you think I’ve insulted you?”

The man raised his head and looked at Xu Qinglang. Then, he pointed at his face,

“Go ahead and hit me.”

He was so cheap..,

xu Qinglang was a little embarrassed to hit him, but he still said in a deep voice,

“I’m very normal in that aspect.”

“OH.”

The man responded, looking a little disappointed. Then he picked up the wine glass and took another sip.

“How is it? Someone has taken a fancy to you?”

Boss Zhou, who had just finished basking in the sun, walked over at this time.

The man seemed to be drunk at this time, but he also seemed to be originally angry. He immediately threw the wine glass in his hand on the ground.

There was a crisp sound,

the wine glass shattered on the ground.

“Spider-man”, who was cleaning at the side, stopped. He walked over and looked at the guest, then at Zhou Ze.

He meant..,

should this person kill him.

Spider-man’s body was already emitting killing intent.

Zhou ze waved his hand.

Spider-man immediately retreated and continued cleaning at the other side.

“I’m sorry, I’ll compensate you.”

The man took out his wallet.

“You’re Out of Love?”Zhou ze asked.

The man shook his head. “I’m unemployed.”

“I understand.”Zhou ze shrugged.

The man looked at Xu Qinglang and gave him the money first. Then, he said, “Can you give me another glass of wine?”

Xu Qinglang nodded and made another glass of wine for him. Then, he specifically pointed at the glass and said, “This glass is a handicraft. I bought it for two thousand Yuan.”

He implied that if he broke the glass again, he would lose two thousand yuan.

The man was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled embarrassedly and took a sip.

Zhou Ze sat down at the side and said to the man,

“If you don’t mind, you can tell us what you’re unhappy about and make us happy.”

“…”the man.

The man smiled bitterly and said,

“I used to be the deputy director of the Logistics Department of Tongcheng University.”

“You’re already a director at such a young age.”The old Taoist also came over at this time. “Your family must have a very strong relationship, right?”

“…”the man.

“Ignore them and continue,”Xu Qinglang urged. “It’s not a tragic matter yet.”

“…”the man.

The man nodded and said, “Because there was a stray dog biting people on campus, I was held responsible and dismissed. My previous job was in charge of campus security.”

“Then you deserve it. You were negligent in your work,”the old priest analyzed from the side.

“The problem is that I planned to take the security guards and capture all the stray dogs in the school last year. We did it, but we were stopped later.”

The Man took a deep breath and exhaled heavily.

“Stopped by the leader?”

“Stopped by the students,”the man replied.

“Um… why did they stop us?”

“They said that we were too cruel and heartless because we had contacted the local stray animal rescue center. They were under a lot of pressure and couldn’t take in so many stray animals. We planned to send a batch of them away if we could. If we couldn’t send them away or settle them, we would just kill them.”

“Kill them directly? TSK TSK, how cruel.”The old priest smacked his lips. “But that’s right. We can’t create danger for the students in the school. Otherwise, this matter will become big.”

“Later, I remember that a student wrote an article on the internet that exposed our matter. It was even republished by the media. The title was:

“How can a university that can’t even accommodate a stray dog accommodate one person?”

“TSK TSK, that’s a good hat,”the old Taoist commented.

“At that time, it was precisely because the students hung banners to protest and obstruct our actions that the final matter was settled and could not be carried out.”

The man wiped his mouth and shifted his wine glass to the side. Only then did he dare to slam the table hard to vent his dissatisfaction:

“The most hateful thing was that last week, two female students were attacked by a group of stray dogs at school last night. Both of them were bitten and sent to the hospital!

“Then the school investigated the responsibility and made it my responsibility. They fired me directly!”

The man slammed the table hard again,

“I’m not convinced. I’m really not convinced. When I was preparing to bring the security guards to solve this problem, not only did the students in the school scold me, there was also a large group of people scolding me online. Because of this, I was even criticized and punished.

“Now that stray dogs have bitten people, I’m still the one to bear the responsibility. It’s my fault again.”

When the old priest heard this, he extended his hand and patted the man’s shoulder,

this man was really unlucky.

“This can’t be helped. After all, protecting small animals is the current ‘political right’.”

Xu Qinglang made a fruit plate and pushed it in front of the man to comfort him.

The man grumbled for a while before he walked out of the bookstore dispiritedly. It was unknown whether he would continue to go to the restaurant to get drunk or go home to sleep.

The old priest turned around and said to Xu qinglang, “Old Xu, what did you say was right?”

“Political correctness.”

“Oh, right, it’s just a joke. I feel like I hate this term now. In the past, my live broadcast room was blocked a few times because of this reason. They said that I was ridiculing some group or something. It was so baffling that I couldn’t even speak clearly. If I wasn’t careful, I would have hurt someone. Why are those people so fragile?”

Although the old priest was old, he was also very trendy.

“Political correctness is necessary,”zhou ze said, “But now it’s becoming more and more abnormal and abused.

“When society protects the feelings of certain groups more than the pursuit of truth, it means that there’s something wrong with it.”

“Yes, that’s the feeling. Boss, what you said was so incisive and wonderful. No, this old priest needs to find a pen and paper to record it and properly analyze and comprehend it.”

The old priest knew his job responsibilities. Cleaning was secondary. When needed, it was his job to give the boss “66666”.

“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. What do we have for lunch?”Zhou ze asked Xu Qinglang.

“Fried eggs with leeks, fried fungus with leeks, fried meat with leeks, fried bullwhip with leeks, Fried egg soup with leeks…”

“HMM?”Zhou Ze.

“I’ll give you some supplements. You must have been exhausted last night.”Xu Qinglang gave him a concerned look.

“…”Zhou Ze.

Ah,

after hesitating for a long time,

zhou Ze took a look and found that Bai Yingying was still focused on fighting the dead,

he then nodded,

implicitly.
