Greatest anchor in history

Chapter 142
Repairing the car, buying a TV, getting a license plate, all kinds of expenses recently have exhausted Zhang Xiaoqiang's small coffers.

However, the end of the month has just passed, and the training remuneration from Lao Zhu has not yet arrived, which makes Zhang Xiaoqiang feel a little confused.

Back in the day, he was also the one who could add two marinated eggs to his instant noodles.

But now... let alone marinated eggs, I can't even afford instant noodles.

Seeing Zhang Xiaoqiang's embarrassment, Lao Zhu tentatively asked: "Xiaoqiang, is there a problem with funds?"

Hearing Laozhu's question, Zhang Xiaoqiang felt very ashamed.

Look at someone who is powerful and dominant in the heavenly court, who comes from here to understand the people's sentiments in the human world, and he can't even guarantee the basic three meals... This can't help but make Zhang Xiaoqiang feel useless.

"I'm sorry, Brother Zhu, the expenses these two days have been too high. In the afternoon, I gave Xiao Bailong his entire body, and his last account was [-] yuan. I only have money left in my pocket..."

Flicking into his pocket, Zhang Xiaoqiang arranged six steel dices neatly on the table.

A total of 6 yuan and [-] cents, this is all of Zhang Xiaoqiang's belongings.

Looking at the gleaming steel coin under the light, Zhang Xiaoqiang felt that it was a kind of ridicule.

"It's okay, Xiaoqiang, don't worry, after all, we are causing you trouble."

What the old pig said, Zhang Xiaoqiang was about to cry.

Although Lao Zhu was right, their visit did break Zhang Xiaoqiang's original rhythm of life.

But it is undeniable that the changes they brought to Zhang Xiaoqiang cannot be bought with gold and silver.

"Don't worry about Xiaoqiang. If there is a problem, we will carry it together. Isn't it just a meal? It's nothing. Thinking about our trip to the West in Sisao, we didn't bring a penny, and we didn't arrive at the Western Paradise smoothly. In this way, I will organize For a while, I will go out to alms for you, Brother Pig."

"Oh, no, no, no!" He quickly raised his hand to stop the old pig's thoughts.

It is well-known that Sisao spent his days on alms alms along the journey to the west, and Zhang Xiaoqiang also knew it.

But the problem... from time to time, the folk customs in the past were simple, so it's okay for you to go for alms.

But now...not to mention other things, just Lao Zhu, the five majors and three groups, the big-hearted and fat masters ran to ask for alms...It's not bad if they haven't been reported and harassed.

"Brother Zhu, I can still buy a few packs of instant noodles with my 6 yuan. Let's cash it out tonight. I'll find a way to raise money tomorrow. Do you think so?"

After tonight, Zhang Xiaoqiang plans to go to school to find his good brother Er Fatty to raise some funds.

As long as he survives these few days and waits for the payment from Lao Zhu to come, life will be easy.

"Actually, Xiaoqiang, you really don't have to do everything by yourself. Although you and I haven't done alms for alms for a while, I still have experience." The old pig is still insisting.

Zhang Xiaoqiang waved his hands again and again: "No, no, brother pig, listen to me, every household has either not returned home at this hour, or is on the way home, and those who go home are also busy with work. We used to give people Add to the chaos. Let's work together tonight and carry it over, and I will treat you to a big meal tomorrow."

There is no guarantee of the oath, in short, the key point is to appease the old pig's idea of ​​"begging" outside.

Zhang Xiaoqiang doesn't want to see the old pig fail in alms, be angry with the residents, and then return to the boring cycle of being arrested and fighting between heaven and man.

Looking at Zhang Xiaoqiang's extremely eager eyes, Laozhu sighed lightly: "Oh, it's really hard for you Xiaoqiang. Since you insist on doing this, then do as you said."

"Huh~" Feeling relieved, in order to prevent the old pig from going back on his word, Zhang Xiaoqiang threw down the sentence "Then I'll go first", then lifted the steel plate on the table and ran out of the rental house like lightning.

The supermarket was crowded with people as always, Zhang Xiaoqiang had a clear goal and went straight to the non-staple food sales area.

"Auntie, which instant noodles are the cheapest?"

With a gloomy face and fixed eyes, Zhang Xiaoqiang's sudden appearance really shocked the sales lady.

Immediately pointing to the front, blurted out vigilantly: "Well, there is a special price over there."

"Thank you!" Zhang Xiaoqiang turned his head and left without saying much.

"Ah~ young people are getting edgy now when they do the facts."

The sales lady behind the back muttered casually, Zhang Xiaoqiang was in no mood to pay attention to what other people said at the moment.

He followed the direction of the sales lady's finger to the target shelf, swept his eyes, and immediately saw the promotional card displayed in the middle of the shelf.

"Master Huang Laotan beef noodles, special offer, buy two get one, refreshing and worth having."

There's nothing to say, although I haven't heard of this brand, but in China... copycats are everywhere.

Along with the six packs of instant noodles, Zhang Xiaoqiang also brought a small bag of pickled mustard, and hurried to the toll office after finishing it.

He didn't dare to delay, even though the old pig had promised not to go out for alms, there was a song that he sang well: Don't guess what the great god thinks, mortals, you don't understand after guessing.

In view of this, Zhang Xiaoqiang had to go home quickly to avoid accidents.

After the previous customer finished paying, Zhang Xiaoqiang threw six packs of instant noodles and a bag of pickled mustard on the chopping board.

The cashier took it and cast a glance at Zhang Xiaoqiang: "Is there anything else?"

"No more, that's all." Zhang Xiaoqiang was anxious.

"No more rice?"

Speechless!
Can I only buy rice when I come to you with my brother?

Frowning and glaring at the cashier angrily, under Zhang Xiaoqiang's lingering gaze, the cashier stopped talking nonsense and just scanned the QR code to check out.

After Zhang Xiaoqiang paid all his belongings, he rushed out of the supermarket and ran towards the rented house.

It took only 15 minutes to go back and forth. When he got home, Zhang Xiaoqiang held on to the door panel, already out of breath from exhaustion.

"Boom, boom, boom!" There was a knock on the door.

"Hey, Xiaoqiang, what's wrong with you? Are you being chased by a dog?" Opening the door, seeing Zhang Xiaoqiang's distressed appearance is not irrelevant.

"No, it's okay! I, I'm not afraid that Brother Zhu will be hungry." He couldn't tell the truth, so Zhang Xiaoqiang made up an excuse at random.

"Hey, look at you... come here, come in quickly, Brother Zhu treats you to a big meal tonight."

"Ah!?" The inexplicable sentence made Zhang Xiaoqiang confused.

After closing the door, the old pig pulled Zhang Xiaoqiang into the room, and smiled as he walked: "You don't have to worry about the dinner issue, you go to the living room and rest, it will be fine in a while."

Can't figure out the situation, but Zhang Xiaoqiang still smelled something wrong in the air: "What smell?"

"Hehe, the game your Brother Monkey brought back."

"Game? What kind of game? Brother Monkey...he went out?" Zhang Xiaoqiang had a premonition that something was wrong, and grabbed Lao Zhu's arm: "Brother Pig, no kidding, Brother Monkey, where is he now?"

The voice fell, and before the old pig could answer, the Great Sage poked his head out from the kitchen: "What are you arguing about, I'm not here."

Seeing that the Great Sage was at home, Zhang Xiaoqiang let go of his hanging heart.

At the moment, he walked to the kitchen: "Brother Monkey, you go out..."

With a sore throat, Zhang Xiaoqiang's eyes instantly enlarged, and his straight body couldn't help but staggered backwards due to the visual impact in front of him: "You... this, this..."
