Now that the job is settled, Su Cheng is not in a hurry to rent a house, and lives in the pet shop honestly.Although his need for money is very low now, it is still necessary to have some money on hand.

Xia Wanwan and Luo Xuebin didn't urge him to move out, and there was someone guarding the store at night, which could prevent theft, which was great.

The pet shop of the two is located in Banjie Alley. The reason why it is called Banjie Alley is because the alley here is very short, as if there is only half of it.

The name of the store is Ai Pet House, which is very common, but it is also clear and easy to understand.

The store mainly deals in popular pets, such as cats and dogs, as well as petite hamsters, pearl bears, etc., more expensive chinchillas, Anglo... and special exotic pets, such as snakes, spiders, lizards, etc. It's not listed in the store, but if someone needs it, the store can also help to order it.

There are usually only three of them in the store, but now opening a store is different from the past. It is not enough to just do a good job in the physical store. In addition to the physical store, the husband and wife also run a certain treasure online store at the same time.

For the sake of business, a live broadcast of a certain treasure was also opened.

It's just because the opening time is not long, and there are only a few people in the live broadcast room.

In the last few days when Su Cheng was painting, Luo Xuebin was busy going out to breed dogs, Xia Wanwan was also busy with cleaning in the store, and grooming clients' pets, so she had to walk away from time to time, and sometimes Simply pointed the mobile phone used for live broadcasting at Su Cheng's drawing board.

Anyway, it was painting a dog, and there was no need to show his face, so Su Cheng agreed.

Su Cheng had never studied painting systematically before, and he didn't pay much attention to it. He talked a few words while painting, and he came and went again and again, which really attracted some permanent customers.

However, Su Cheng seriously suspected that these people did not come to see pets, but to see him.

It's not that Su Cheng is narcissistic, but that you can always see this in the barrage.

[Wow, the fairy painter shows off his skills online]

[Ah, the anchor, your voice is so nice, I can do it]

[I am obviously here to suck cats, I suspect that I entered the wrong live broadcast room, but I can't get out]

Su Cheng: "..."

These are actually good things, I am most afraid of encountering the kind of nonsense, swiping the screen as soon as they come up.

[Little brother, your hands are so pretty, do you want to sell them? 】

【Sell it? 】

【What...】

After scrolling through three pages in a row, Su Cheng suspected that if he didn't answer, he would keep scrolling.

Su Cheng: "Not for sale."

[Why don't you sell it?I bought it at a high price]

Su Cheng: "..."

Su Cheng was speechless, his drawing hands stopped, and the man was still crying, saying that I was sincere, which made Su Cheng's teeth ache.

This was not enough, suddenly, another one popped up in the live broadcast room.

【look at me look at me】

Su Cheng: "..."

How come this is still for fun.

Su Cheng wondered if he had been docile for too long recently, these people took him as a sign of obedience, and thinking about it, he was about to explode.

At this time, another barrage popped up.

[I don't want hands, I see we are in the same city, I want to ask where your shop is]

Su Cheng felt a little more comfortable, at least he had a serious client, he reported the address, and he wanted to elaborate, but he saw the previous person say something.

[I'm going, you bastard, I just want a hand, since you're going to see people directly, I don't accept it. 】

Su Cheng: "..."

Su Cheng was confused, is that so?

[I was exposed, but I already know the address]

[It’s so close to my house, I’ll take a look at it some other day, hahahaha]

Su Cheng: "........."

Su Cheng was about to complain, but a new fan jumped out.

[Followed and followed, the little brother who answered questions seriously, awsl]

Su Cheng: "..." Su Cheng didn't understand the meaning of the pinyin, but he understood the previous attention.

"Thank you, thank you for your attention."

In this way, by the time Su Cheng finishes those three paintings, the live broadcast room will already be watched by hundreds of fans every day.

Later, after Su Cheng decided to stay, Xia Wanwan felt that Su Cheng did a good job, so she often asked Su Cheng to walk around the store with her mobile phone, showing pets to the friends in the live broadcast room, and unknowingly, she actually sold a few of them pets out.

Xia Wanwan is very satisfied, this can be regarded as opening up a little sales.

Su Cheng has been working in the pet shop for several months. After a long time, both Xia Wanwan and Luo Xuebin began to doubt their original guesses. The main reason is that if this is really the young master of any family, it would take too long to run away from home. up.

Moreover, seeing that Su Cheng is not in a hurry every day, he should be teasing cats, walking dogs... The store also has a special reserved item, ordering a famous dog to get a large portrait, Su Cheng is also unambiguous I agreed, and I have a great intention to stay here permanently.

Today, the weather is extremely hot and there is no wind.

The main road in the afternoon is more like being continuously heated on a stove. You can see the steaming heat on the whole road. When you know that you are tired, you lie on the big tree by the roadside, and only occasionally let out a weak voice, which is even more impressive. Feel stuffy.

All three of them hid in the pet shop, and none of them wanted to go out.Su Cheng was busy drawing, and this was a new client introduced by that client a few months ago.

Xia Wanwan just dozed off on the counter, the newly arrived brown teddy was tied by her feet, saying it was to cultivate feelings, but in fact, this teddy was very timid, Xia Wanwan liked to bully it, seeing its eyes wet of.

Luo Xuebin took over Su Cheng's job and interacted with the live broadcast room, but from time to time, he could see someone asking where is the little brother of Huahua?

Luo Xuebin couldn't laugh or cry, and joked several times: We sell pets, but the little brother is a god's pet, so he doesn't sell them.

God's favorite: "..."

The divine pet said: Just as long as you are happy!

In fact, it’s good to be called a god’s favorite. Xia Wanwan sometimes joked about him, calling him all VIPs——single (noble) family + single (dog) = VIP. Su Cheng can’t refute this equation. , only by default.

Su Cheng's painting is almost finished. He used colored pencils, and there is no problem of drying it. After resting and recuperating, he can fill in the colors and then mount it.After the afternoon is cool, it can be delivered to customers.

The framed frame was also ordered by Su Cheng on the Internet for Luo Xuebin. Before, they hired someone outside to install it. Su Cheng thought it was expensive. Anyway, after buying the materials, it is the same to install it by himself.

With such an employee who saved them money, Xia Wanwan and Luo Xuebin felt that it was worth hiring this employee.

Su Cheng tinkered and installed the painting again, it was already half the afternoon.

Xia Wanwan woke up, still very hot, and clamored to eat ice, Luo Xuebin covered the receiver of the mobile phone, and said with a smile, "Bin is here, come and eat."

Xia Wanwan gritted her teeth: "Believe it or not, I'm going to bite you twice."

With her like this, Luo Xuebin immediately shrank his neck and didn't dare to talk anymore, and he would really be bitten if he talked poorly.But he was live broadcasting over there, and there were still people consulting, so he couldn't leave for a while, so he could only instruct Su Cheng.

"Cheng Zi, why don't you go buy a bowl of ice powder for your sister."

"Uh," Su Cheng glanced at the still-flaming sun outside, "...All right."

Xia Wanwan: "What are you ordering him to do, don't bully him, you are rough and thick, you go."

Luo Xuebin lost face: "I'm not Mo Kong."

Just as he was talking, someone in the live broadcast room asked about pet matching again, Luo Xuebin stopped talking to the two of them, and focused on answering with a serious look.

It's completely different from the foolishness just now, it seems to be about his major, which seems to be the case.

Su Cheng just shook his head and took a sun umbrella at the counter.

Xia Wanwan wanted to stop her, but she didn't want to go by herself. After this hesitation, Su Cheng already opened her umbrella and walked out.

The sun is really poisonous, even if you hold an umbrella, it can't stop the heat from the ground.

Su Cheng had only walked a few steps, and he was already sweating.

The full name of the ice powder that Xia Wanwan likes to eat is brown sugar glutinous rice cake ice powder, and it is also a special snack in D City.

Good ice powder, from ice powder to brown sugar to glutinous rice cakes, is all handmade.

The ice powder is made by hand with ice powder seeds. The brown sugar should be boiled thick and sweet, and the glutinous rice cakes should be fresh and soft. Put them together, add raisins, hawthorn pieces, peanuts, fruit pieces, etc., it is really smooth and refreshing , promoting body fluid to relieve summer heat.

But it is conceivable that not all stores are willing to spend this thought.

As a snack that is truly loved by the citizens, there are two ice powder shops in Banjie Alley, but Xia Wanwan dislikes that they are not handmade. The one she likes to eat is outside Banjie Alley, at the back door of the community across the road. that house.

A time-honored brand, there are countless people queuing up every day.

To get there, the fastest way is to walk through the opposite area.

But if you want to enter the community, you will usually be stopped by the security guards. Luo Xuebin has complained several times before, and every time you are stopped, it is not enough to fill in the information, and you have to ask questions, which are more detailed than checking the household registration.

Su Cheng was quite surprised, but after asking Xia Wanwan, he found out that this inconspicuous small city located in the southwestern part of China is a very important heavy industry city in China, with three state-owned heavy industry factories.

And this community is the community where one of the retired old workers lives.

These old people are all people who have made outstanding contributions to China's economy. No wonder they are so cautious. It is said that even the security guards in this community are not just random people.

After crossing the road under the scorching sun, Su Cheng hesitated for a long time before walking towards the gate of the community.

It's not that he's not afraid of trouble, it's that it takes half an hour to walk back and forth around the road. If these security guards can ask any more questions, it shouldn't be... less than half an hour.

Su Cheng was not sure, but it was too hot outside, so he gritted his teeth and went up.

Through the glass of the guard room, one could see three uncle security guards sitting inside, all looking drowsy.

But when Su Cheng's figure appeared in the glass window, the three of them woke up startled, looked up one after another, and then...then lowered their heads and continued to doze off.

Su Cheng: "..."

How about being serious?

Su Cheng pursed his lips and continued to walk forward. When he was about to reach the long table at the door, the security guard sitting by the door lightly patted the table, motioning him to fill in some information, and Su Cheng completed it. , the security guard waved his hand and let him in.

Su Cheng: "..."

Don't need to check his account?

Su Cheng couldn't figure it out, so he could only speculate secretly, probably because the weather was too hot, and there wasn't even a shadow of a ghost outside, and this time period, it really didn't seem like the time when bad guys would go out... Maybe.

After Su Cheng had gone far away, the elder brother by the window muttered to the door: "Brother Li, was that just your daughter talking about it every day, the one in the pet shop in the opposite alley?"

"That's right, young man, he looks quite straight (tall, handsome)."

"The facial features are also delicate. Hey, with that height, are you from the north?"

Old Li: "I heard it seems to be."

"He's taller than the young man here. That's right. The children I'll bring up in the future will definitely be taller too. But tell your girl to hurry up. This kind of young man is in demand."

"I can't control it, that damn girl has an idea every day... hey!"

"Don't sigh, children and grandchildren have their own blessings." Another elder brother who had never said anything persuaded him.

"Yes Yes!"

Lao Li agreed, but he had another idea in his heart.But it was probably too hot, and the security room soon became quiet again, except for the sound of the electric fan, which kept ringing non-stop.

The wind that can blow out is also hot.

Outside, it gets even hotter.

There are not many buildings in this community, and they are old buildings with low floors. If you count them, there are only about ten floors.The shadows between buildings can't even connect together, Su Cheng has to walk close to each other so as not to be exposed to the sun.

However, I kept walking close to the side, but couldn't reach the back door.

Su Cheng frowned, hesitated, and stepped into the sunlight again.

The moment he walked into the sunlight, Su Cheng couldn't help squinting his eyes. At this moment, he heard a weak and suppressed cry in the hot air.
