Chapter 1843: Chapter 1841-difficult days
Lin Yiâs enemies were looking for him, and even if uncle Fu was out in the open, no one would go after him. After all, Chu pengzhan was a cripple, and could die at any moment. No practitioner would want to kill someone who was about to die.
Besides, Chu pengzhan had nothing left, and no hidden house would do something like this without any benefits! It was already a taboo for an Earth Class to enter the common world, and it was even more taboo for them to attack normal people. No one wanted to cross that line.
After hanging up, Mengyao, Yushu, and the old lady went to the bank nearby and transferred the old ladyâs hundred thousand Yuan and Jianwenâs hundred thousand Yuan to uncle Fu.
âLi Fu?â When she was transferring the money, the old lady took a look at the name on the receipt and muttered it subconsciously.
âYeah, thatâs uncle Fuâs name. Granny, youâve heard of him before?â Mengyao nodded.
âNoâŠâ The old lady shook her head and said,ââThereâs a familiar feeling, but I donât know him âŠâ
âGranny, so your surname is sun. Iâll call you granny sun from now on.â Chu Mengyao only knew that granny sunâs surname was sun after seeing the name on the passbook.
âI think itâs sun ⊠Itâs been too long, I donât really remember it. I got this name when I settled here.â Granny sun said.
Chu Mengyao was stunned. She realized that granny sun always said that she couldnât remember this sentence because it had been too long. Maybe something happened to granny sun before and she had forgotten it? Or did he not want to mention it?
But Mengyao wasnât a nosy person-she didnât ask any questions, naturally. The three left the bank and began their scrap picking journey after transferring the money to uncle Fu âŠ
The sun in autumn was venomous. This was the so-called âTiger in autumn.â
Under the hot sun, an old woman took the two girls, shuttling back and forth in the big streets and small alleys, rummaging through every garbage can and searching every corner near the commercial district. This was a route that the old woman had been walking for many years. The daily Harvest was about the same. Although it was not bad, it was not much either!
It was already good enough to have two to three hundred Yuan in one day-it was a world of difference from the five thousand that Shu had estimated!
âGeneral Weiwu, other dogs have very sensitive noses, you should help look for them too!â Chu Mengyao knew that they couldnât go on like this so she started to encourage general Weiwu to look for junk.
âWoof, Woof âŠâ General Weiwu was a little depressed. It could teach other dogs or even people a lesson, but picking up trash? it had never done anything like that before. However, it understood that Mengyao was doing this for Lin Yi, so it started to follow her example and went to all corners.
With general Weiwuâs help, they managed to find a lot of scrap paper and bottles in some of the harder-to-find places. However, they could only increase their income by tens of dollars. It was impossible to get more than a thousand dollars.
The day passed quickly, and when they were counting their spoils at night, Mengyao and Yushu realized that they had only made five hundred Kuai today. They were only one-tenth away from five thousand Kuai.
However, it was only 500 yuan, and granny sun was already very happy. According to her, it was usually only a few dozen Yuan, and during holidays, it was only 300 yuan. This time, 500 yuan was already considered a lot!
Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu were silent. They also knew that picking up trash wasnât a lucrative business. Otherwise, everyone would be picking up trash.
After Lin Yiâs medicine was done, Mengyao fed it to him and sat down with Shu, troubled.
With both internal and external problems, their future was bleak. This was the true portrayal of their current mood.
Five hundred Yuan wasnât even enough to buy Lin Yiâs medicine, let alone save up for Chu pengzhanâs medical expenses!
âShu ⊠How about we go to Yunyunâs house tomorrow and borrow some money?â Mengyao didnât know what to do, but she knew that Mrs. Tang had a lot of money on her hands. She knew that Mrs. Tang would definitely lend her money to buy Lin Yiâs medicine.
âYeah, I guess thatâs the only way âŠâ Chen Yushu nodded.
But what they didnât know was that Mrs. Tang had already been taken away by the people from the snow Valley. First, she was worried about her parents in Songshan, and second, she was afraid that her parents would say something to Lin Yi and make her waste her time feeding Lin Yi the liquid.
And so, the next day, when Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu came to Tang Yunâs house, they helplessly found that Tang Yunâs family had long since left. According to the neighbors, there was no one in the house a few days ago.
Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu could roughly guess what Tang Yun wanted. The only problem was that they didnât have the contact information of the snowy valley. According to the snowy valley, if Tang Yun stayed there, it would be equivalent to not seeing them anymore. Naturally, they wouldnât give them any contact information.
Mrs. Tang couldnât make it, and Yunyun and Xiaoxiao couldnât be contacted either. The only person Mengyao and Yushu could count on was old Lin.
However, even though old Lin had his own medicine garden and had most of the ingredients in the prescription, old Linâs ingredients alone were only enough to sustain Lin Yiâs medicine. Pengzhanâs medical expenses were still not settled.
Moreover! The West Star Mountain village didnât accept express delivery and old Lin couldnât leave the village. It would be troublesome to send the herbs to a courier company in a town far away. By the time the herbs were sent out, it would be too late.
With no other choice, Mengyao and Yushu could only continue to scrap pick with granny sun. However, after two days of scrap picking, Mengyao and Yushu realized that there were many competitors in this line of work. Other than them, there were also some scrap pickers. In this line of work, one had to have sharp eyes and quick hands. It didnât matter who saw it first, what was important was who got it first.
According to granny sun, every cityâs scrap picking industry had its own set of rules, and Songshan city was one of them. This rule had been followed for many years, and so even though her legs werenât as agile before, sheâd managed to pick up some quick-witted skills.
It was also because of this that after she returned to normal, her scrap picking speed became even faster, obviously higher than other scrap pickers, so her harvest every day was not small!
âActually, itâs not the most profitable to rely on these waste paper and drink bottles every day.â âSometimes we can pick up some old furniture and appliances from the garbage dump in the residential area,â said granny sun.âThatâs the most profitable thing!â Sometimes, I could find some change in the old clothes of some rich people. Although it was not much, sometimes it was at most a few hundred Yuan. One time, I picked up 3000 Yuan at most from a leather jacket at the gate of a villa. I went to pay off the money; however, the Butler of the villa only said thanks and hereâs the money before letting me go âŠâ
