Chapter 83 This family should just fall apart.
"They're so loving, always spending all their time together, why is Zhang Yijun investigating him for no reason?"
Gu Qingyi and the two ghosts were somewhat incredulous.
"That's what I'm also wondering about, but that's the truth."
Gu Bai said, "I only found out by chance. Zhang Yijun has investigated Xiao Liu more than once, suspecting him of cheating, and even installed a tracking device on his phone. Did you know that?"
"I know their location. Xiao Liu and she are pretending to be each other to prevent the other from getting lost," Gu Qingyi said. "Who told you this?"
"I can't say that, since the other person is also considered my friend."
Gu Bai said, "Believe it or not, it's up to you."
"Wait a minute, didn't you used to be a pig butcher? Where did you get all these connections?"
Yanran asked in confusion, "This involves blood wine and a feast of meat and wine, do you have a side job too?"
Gu Bai explained, "I don't have any part-time jobs. Gu Xiaojiao found the blood wine, and you're still investigating. As for Lao Wang, he used to run a small shop, and I don't know how he got involved with the blood wine."
"How could there be problems in their relationship?"
Gu Qingyi frowned and pondered: "We also checked Zhang Yijun's information. She was an ordinary person when she was in school. She met Xiao Liu during college, and the two got together. Later, Zhang Yijun went home to inherit the family business, and Xiao Liu also came back to work as a security guard."
"After inheriting the family business, Zhang Yijun's career progressed smoothly, and she focused on her work without any intention of falling in love with someone else."
Although they are in a long-distance relationship, they spend as much time together as possible, and Zhang Yijun now plans to settle down here.
"There can't be any problems in their relationship," the Bodhisattva said confidently. "I have influenced their consciousness; they are very loving, and it's not an act."
"I only know that Zhang Yijun investigated Xiao Liu," Gu Bai said. "As for whether her feelings were genuine, I don't know."
Gu Qingyi pondered, "Could you be mistaken? The 'Little Six' you heard isn't Liu Feng?"
"Maybe," Gu Bai said. "Let's talk about whether Zhang Qingguan has been consecrated or not."
"He can't possibly agree to that; it involves the reputation of Wudang Mountain," Yanran said, shaking her head.
Gu Bai said, "Why don't you just persuade him?"
Yanran glanced at him and said irritably, "How do you plan to convince me? Name one and let me see."
"Look at this world, isn't it getting more and more chaotic? Monsters are rampant, and surveillance is useless. If carvings that can detect monsters appeared, wouldn't that be more conducive to social stability?"
"By making statues of Zhenwu the Great, or other deities to ward off evil spirits, we can also promote Wudang Mountain, right?"
Gu Bai said, "Once Wudang Mountain has a reputation, and we've taken the money, he won't need to worry about anything."
"The police department has considered what you're talking about, but the products they produce are unreliable."
"How can you make money with stable products? Factories that produce good quality products have already gone out of business."
The two ghosts: "..."
It really is.
Gu Qingyi pondered, "The Public Security Bureau has this idea, but it will be done in the name of the Public Security Bureau, so it won't fall on you; it will go directly to the factory."
Gu Bai: "..."
Is it so difficult to give the White Bone Demon a path to wealth and luxury?
Or should I do it secretly?
Not worth it.
After a long silence, Yanran suddenly said, "How about we do it secretly?"
"Forget it, without the backing of a famous name, this wood carving wouldn't even sell for ten yuan a piece." The White Bone Demon waved her hand, losing interest.
There are tons of handicrafts online that you can buy for just a few dollars, but even if he broke off all ten of his fingers, he still couldn't sell them for much.
"Then I'll go back and bring it up, and see if Zhang Qingguan has the same idea." Gu Qingyi pondered for a moment and said, "Whether it works or not, we'll only know after we try."
"Alright, that's enough for today. Let's eat first."
Yanran picked up the bowl, scooped out a bowl of blood wine, and chugdled it down.
Gu Bai glanced at the time: "It's only nine o'clock. You're already thinking about dinner after only a few wood carvings?"
"It's time to eat." The Bodhisattva also picked up the blood wine.
"Then I'll have a bite too."
"You guys... never mind, I'll eat some too."
The White Bone Demon also took a sip; he had already finished a bottle before they arrived, and it was slowly being digested within his skeletal muscles.
Now that his appetite has increased, this bottle of blood wine doesn't make him feel high at all.
They just smacked their lips and tasted it.
The room quieted down, and everyone went about their business.
He glanced at them every now and then, and confirmed it: damn it, two lazybones.
In one day, he made more than a dozen wood carvings and drank a whole barrel of blood wine, not a drop left.
He finally understood; they were just there to steal food, and their work skills were terrible.
Gu Qingyi had no talent for carving, so she could only cheer them on from the sidelines.
As darkness fell.
Yanran jumped to her feet: "Let's go, time for lunch!"
The Bodhisattva quickly put down the wooden carving in her hand, and Gu Qingyi also straightened her clothes.
Gu Bai sighed sadly, "You can leave now. Just pretend we don't know each other."
"Hey, we've been working for you all day."
"You worked all day and earned less than thirty wood carvings, but you drank a whole barrel of my blood wine. That barrel alone is worth two hundred thousand. And yesterday I gave Old Wang another two hundred thousand. All things considered, I'm losing one hundred thousand?"
Gu Bai sighed, "They're useless at everything, and they can't even finish eating anything. This family should just fall apart."
A loving family?
I can't feel affection for them.
Expecting them to produce food?
Ha!
I, the White Bone Demon, was truly blind to have placed my hopes on these two foolish monsters!
One person, two ghosts: "..."
I'm a little embarrassed.
Gu Bai took a deep breath and looked at the night view outside the window: "The world is a long and winding road, let's forget each other in the world."
"I've already worked very hard for you," Yanran said.
"How many wood carvings do you carve a day when you're at the police station?"
Three pieces.
Gu Bai: "..."
The police department even gave you a meal; that's really generous of them.
So, once you get a secure job, you can just slack off all you want?
"They usually go there in the middle of the night, but we still have time, so make a couple more pieces." Gu Qingyi couldn't stand it anymore.
That's too lazy!
Yanran sighed softly, "I also want to hurry up, but if we use force, it will be exactly the same, mass-produced, and the traces will be noticeable."
The Bodhisattva chimed in, "Yes, we can only carve slowly, so production naturally won't increase."
"Why bother checking each piece individually when we've already submitted a whole bunch? We can just hand it in on the last day and leave them no time to check," Gu Bai said.
The Bodhisattva said, "That won't do. With this output, we might run out of time. Nobody knows if tomorrow will be the last day."
"Work overtime, come back and work overtime after you finish eating!" Gu Bai said fiercely.
He wouldn't be satisfied until he made the money back.
I, the White Bone Demon, have never made a losing deal!
"Okay, let's eat first," Yanran said.
Gu Bai said, "If we go in the middle of the night, it won't be open yet."
The two ghosts could only sit back in their original positions and continue their wood carving.
Gu Bai picked up the carving knife and began to work.
Poor White Bone Demon, she wasn't destined to be a boss; in the early stages of starting a business, she could only work alongside others.
Fortunately, the other blood bead already has food stored up, so we can't give it to them anymore.
At 11 o'clock, Lao Wang sent a message announcing the opening.
The two spies couldn't wait any longer. They happily went out the door, got into the back seat, and headed to begin their undercover mission.
Today we used the VIP entrance and went directly to the private room.
As usual, the Bodhisattva toured the area, checking the situation and monitoring Lin Yong and the others.
