037 Not to be underestimated
Lopez's bad premonition became stronger and stronger, because he found that Chen Chen's expression was full of pride. Even though he had gained a lot every day before, Chen Chen was just calm and would not be as stupid as he is now.
What made Lopez the most uneasy was that he knew that his sister had more and more phone calls with Chen Chen. Sometimes he could not receive a call a day, and Chen Chen often held the phone and chatted for an hour or two, basically during the off-get off work hours.
Emily on the phone asked curiously, "Thanksgiving is coming soon. Wouldn't you give Marco a holiday?"
"The price of truffles has increased a lot these days. I know that Thanksgiving has a special significance in this land." Chen Chen couldn't help but smile. He knew that Thanksgiving is equal to the Chinese Spring Festival. "Marco will return to California, and I will give him two days of vacation. But I will stay here, and the price of truffles will drop a little after Thanksgiving."
Emily couldn't help but quip, "It looks like you're a guy who's crazy about money, and you don't even want holidays for money."
"I was not like this before, but now I'm short of money." Chen Chen smiled and said the truth, "In fact, on such festivals, there are always some great people who stick to their posts, just like me."
Regarding Chen Chen's shamelessness, Emily just smiled sweetly and didn't say anything. She could understand that the significance of Thanksgiving for Chen Chen is not particularly important. But Chen Chen sometimes likes to gild his face so much.
But even if it is gilded, Emily only knows that every time she chats with Chen Chen, she will feel very happy and happy. This is obviously the most important thing, and this is the fundamental reason why she keeps calling Chen Chen these days.
The phone call with Emily ended happily, and Chen Chen naturally needed to start preparing for a good rest. Only by eating and sleeping enough can he work better and making money better is still very important.
Lopez is working hard, and he needs to make another money before going back to reunite with his family. He has made some money these days, but this is still far from enough. He still needs to work harder and he wants to make more money.
Anderson did not plan to go back to celebrate Thanksgiving. Like Chen Chen, he was in a state where his family would not worry about having enough food. It is more important to make more money at this time, so that he could save some money and enjoy life better after the truffle season.
"You guys work first, I'll go find some truffles." Seeing that the time is almost over, Chen Chen planned to leave, "Leave it to you here."
Anderson and Lopez were not surprised at all, and they were also used to Chen Chen's working style.
Half a day of work with Chen Chen, and half a day of work is Chen Chen looking for truffles. This can work more efficiently and ensure that everyone has the opportunity to find more truffles every day.
Walking out of Anderson and Lopez's sight, Groot immediately ran out of the forest.
In the past, he and Chen Chen were inseparable and almost reluctant to leave Chen Chen's side. But slowly Groot was growing up and becoming more and more playful. In addition, Chen Chen did not allow Groot to appear in front of others, Groot naturally had ideas.
He certainly wouldn't show up in front of Anderson and Lopez, but he couldn't stand the loneliness even if he stayed by Chen Chen. So he got used to Chen Chen's digging truffles in the morning, Groot continued to look for truffles near his workplace alone.
It doesn't need too much guidance from Chen Chen. Groot has learned these things. It's not difficult for him.
Seeing Chen Chen, Groot naturally ran over happily. Jumped into Chen Chen's arms, Groot happily pointed ahead.
"I knew you must have found a lot of truffles. Our Groot is indeed the most powerful one." Chen Chen hugged Groot and smiled happily, "We will play games in the afternoon to replenish your energy. How about Tarzan, the Ape and Spider-Man?"
Groot, who happily hugged Chen Chen, immediately started to act, and the thin vines immediately wrapped around Chen Chen's body. Then he stretched out his left hand, and a thin vine flew out along Groot's fingertips, and wrapped around the branch of a thick branch three meters away.
"Yo ho!"
Chen Chen, who had toes off the ground, shouted happily, very happy and satisfied.
"Groot, let's keep going!"
The energetic Chen Chen pointed ahead, while the happy Groot didn't think Chen Chen was a burden at all. He took Chen Chen to ripple happily in the forest, and was as flexible as a monkey.
Groot is very happy, naturally because he likes to play with Chen Chen. Although Chen Chen has relatively limited time to play games with him these days, when he is playing crazy, Chen Chen is playing crazy with Groot.
"Groot, stop." Chen Chen was moved when he saw the fruit tree in front of him, "Where are you, practice the fungus."
Groot climbed onto Chen Chen's head and sat, looking at the wild apples that Chen Chen pointed at. You will definitely not eat them, but practicing your own fungus is a good game.
At Chen Chen's order, Groot waved two thin vine whips and moved.
When he first started practicing, Groot tapped branches and wild fruits with fine vines. In general, his style was relatively simple and crude. After Chen Chen's continuous explanation and training, Groot now mastered a more refined operation method.
For example, Groot's current fine vines flexibly bypass the branches and run directly towards the wild fruit. He entangles the apple's fruit handle and gently pulls it, which makes the apple follow the law of gravity and stages the truth that an apple falls to the ground.
Chen Chen slapped and praised, "It's very good. Our Groot has indeed grown up. He no longer has the same way as before. He only knows how to knock and hit. Now we are playing with technology, not just relying on brute force."
Groot was obviously very happy, and he never disliked Chen Chen's praise. Groot's continuous growth and motivation to move forward was often just to get Chen Chen's praise and praise.
Continue to happily pick apples with Groot. Things like "the melon is ripe and the stems fall" do not exist. Chen Chen can help them complete the cycle of life and turn them into fertilizer to nourish the earth. This is also a cycle of life.
I happily played the game with Groot for a while and reminded Groot to replenish some nutrients as soon as possible.
Chen Chen felt that such a small life was still very comfortable, and he also thought that such a life was indeed very leisurely. Even if it seemed that it was just two points and one line all day, it was mainly to look for truffles in the mountains, but Chen Chen didn't feel bored at all.
With the help of Groot, Chen Chen successfully climbed onto a big tree and sat down.
"Groot, are you killing?" Chen Chen couldn't help but feel a little worried, "You are still young and relatively simple now. Let's not practice hunting. You have a bad temper, but if you stimulate the dark side and become more irritable, that would be bad."
It’s better not to let Groot practice hunting. Wait until Groot grows up or when his mentality is more mature before considering these things. Now, let Groot grow up carefree and happy.
Playing, naughty, this is what Groot should do, rather than just taking on those responsibilities and pressures.
Chen Chen was very satisfied with his decision, and he also felt that this was what he should do and something he could do well. Who made him the boss of Groot? Groot chose to trust Chen Chen, so Chen Chen had to take care of Groot.
After spending an afternoon of fun with Groot, Chen Chen was naturally very satisfied when he saw Groot eating and drinking.
This was definitely a successful day, and I harvested more than 80 pounds of truffles. Because of Groot's help, Chen Chen also booked a truffle excavation base tomorrow, and there was no need to worry about wasting time.
As for seeing two truffle hunters along the way, Chen Chen smiled at his colleagues in a friendly manner. This was Chen Chen's etiquette. As for whether this stimulated others, Chen Chen didn't care about it, he just wanted to release his kindness.
As for other people’s understanding, there is nothing we can do. After all, the three views are different, and many times the ideas are different.
Jones collected the truffle for $170, which was a little higher than the previous two days.
Chen Chen felt very satisfied. Although he knew that the price of truffles would drop slightly after Thanksgiving. But this didn't matter much. This is the market situation, and Chen Chen sometimes couldn't control it.
Jones and others are also excellent. If Jones and Jason were not trying hard to find customers and orders, the truffles dug out by Chen Chen might not have been able to be sold at such a price. After all, some buyers would carefully consider their shipments and would worry that the truffles collected from high prices would be smashed into their hands.
Chen Chen is very satisfied. The three musketeers work together, and it is indeed not to be underestimated!
