Chapter 342: 342
“300, I’m taking everything . You can go home now,” Lu Shu grinned . He would be a grape vendor today then!
A grateful look immediately appeared on the old man’s face, “Thank you, young man!”
“No problem . Everyone has a difficult time . You can leave the sack to me . I’m selling right here,” Lu Shu said .
Chen Zuan was hesitant, “Can it work? These grapes won’t be fresh tomorrow . I’m afraid we can’t sell them all . “
“If we can’t sell them out, so be it . Not a big deal,” Lu Shu smiled .
Chen Zuan was in disbelief, since when was Lu Shu so kind? But what he did not know was that an old grape vendor had given Lu Shu two sesame cakes during his most difficult time .
Of course, the two vendors were not the same person . But after that incident, Lu Shu had always had a good opinion of grape vendors .
This made Chen Zuan’s impressions of Lu Shu conflicting . Sometimes generous, but sometimes stingy like hell…
After the old man left to take care of his wife, Lu Shu and Chen Zuan sat by the street to sell their grapes . On second thoughts, Chen Zuan asked, “Can I have a cluster? We have so many . ”
“Nope,” Lu Shu declined politely, “These are all our resources . We need to depend on them for survival . “
Sulking, Chen Zuan sat aside alone . Just after 6am, some elderly people came out to shop for groceries, as in the early morning, groceries were usually cheaper .
One person walked past the grape stall and wondered how the vendor became two young men .
Another person asked, “How much?”
“4 . 8 per kilo,” Lu Shu smiled warmly .
“Can I have a taste?” the granny asked .

“Sure . Have a taste,” Lu Shu grinned .
After eating five grapes in a row, the granny was satisfied, “Quite sweet . “
Then, she left…
Lu Shu’s face darkened at once, even then you were still not buying?!
After that, the same incident occurred several times continuously . Lu Shu was totally annoyed . Why was everyone so unfriendly?
At that moment, another nanny came, carrying a basket in her arm, “How much?”
“4 . 8!”
“Can I have a taste?”
“No,” Lu Shu rejected mercilessly .
By his side, Chen Zuan almost burst into laughter . Which fruit vendor did not let his customer taste his fruits?
The granny was shocked too, “If you don’t let me taste, how do I know whether it’s sweet or sour?!”
Lu Shu plucked one grape and threw it into his mouth, “I taste and you judge from my facial expression . “
“From Wang Huilan’s distress, +399!”
“What’s wrong with young people nowadays? Are they insane?” the nanny left in fury .
“Hahahaha, Brother Shu! I have a feeling that we really can’t sell them all!” Chen Zuan laughed his head off .
“So what? Am I starving you or what?!” Lu Shu was unhappy .
Unexpectedly, at that instant, they heard a mellifluous voice, “Little fatty, why are you selling grapes here?”
Lu Shu turned to see Chen Zuan’s face blush instantly, and when he turned to the other side, he saw an unfamiliar, graceful girl squatting in front of their stall .
Despite her ordinary look, her mien was gentle and attractive .
The girl sensed confusion from Lu Shu’s face at once, “Hello, I’m Du Xuemei, D-U, Du . “
Oh… Lu Shu recalled that Chen Zuan had mentioned her before . Thus, he introduced himself, “My name’s Lu Shu, vertical-horizontal-vertical turned-vertical, Lu . ”

“From Du Xuemei’s distress, +199!”
“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +199!”
Could you please just say L-U, Lu? Other people explained by the spelling of letters, only Lu Shu would rather choose the strokes?!
“Hey, why are you here, Xuemei?” Chen Zuan was embarrassed . How unlucky must he be to be forced to make a living in the city, and meet the girl of his dreams in such a sorry state .
Lu Shu took a glance at him . A professional joker who was scared of girls?
Du Xuemei was stunned for a while by Lu Shu’s self-introduction, “Why are you selling grapes here? I was at my grandma’s house, and just now she told us that there were two crazy people downstairs selling grapes who didn’t even let her try the fruits . I was about to go home, so I hoped to take a look here…”
“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +199!”
Chen Zuan immediately covered his face . What the… The granny just now was Du Xuemei’s grandma? If they really got together one day, how could he have the face to meet her grandma…
Chen Zuan was thinking too far ahead .
“Let me help you,” Du Xuemei smiled, “From what I see, you may offend more people than the grapes you can sell . ”
Lu Shu could not have asked for anything else, “That would be great!”
“What? Xuemei, you can go home first,” Chen Zuan pulled Lu Shu aside, “She’s from a prestigious family and you are asking her to sell grapes for you?”
Lu Shu was displeased, “Isn’t it good for you? I’ll excuse myself later, so that you two can spend some time alone . I can tell that she doesn’t dislike you at all . So bro, seize this opportunity!”
Chen Zuan was shocked, “Makes sense! Where are you going then?”
“I’ll find a place for some rest . Remember the fight last night? I didn’t get a good sleep,” Lu Shu said as if it was deserved .
“So, you simply want to slack, right?”
“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +299!”
In fact, Lu Shu was not planning to slack . He just wanted to check on the other Daoyuan Class students . If anyone had found a way to make money, he could mimic them as well . In this aspect, Lu Shu firmly believed in the tenet “live and learn” .
His first stop was the train station . However, no one was there except Cheng Qiuqiao, who was making a living by carrying goods . Under the hot summer sun, he had become even more tanned .
Cheng Qiuqiao was glad to meet Lu Shu, “Why are you here, Lu Shu? Thought you were fetched away by a car?”
Lu Shu did not know how to reply . Didn’t Nie Ting force him to come back? He had no choice…
He suddenly asked, “Did you run into a group of men in black?”
Cheng Qiuqiao was shocked, “Lu Shu, your buns were stolen too? No… You have no buns, haha . My apologies . I mean, you were robbed too?”
Lu Shu was confused, “What buns?”
After knowing what happened to the rest on the first night, Lu Shu gasped in astonishment, “They even stole your buns?!”
“Then what did they steal from you, Lu Shu?” Cheng Qiuqiao was curious .
Lu Shu found it too embarrassing to tell the truth that instead of getting robbed, he robbed those people…
According to Cheng Qiuqiao, the Heavenly Network would come after resources that were earned illegally or not through one’s own abilities .
Lu Shu was suddenly confident about drawing Hao Zhichao’s team to him again…
