Pet King
chapter-1643

Electrician Wu looked down on welder Zhao's miserly behavior from the bottom of his heart. His retirement salary was quite high. He had medical insurance, his own house, no loans, and his son and daughter-in-law had their own jobs. It was not as good as his previous one, but it was more than enough. Although he was not considered rich, at least he had no worries about food and clothing. Why was he so miserly?

Just look at the other retired people. They lived a carefree life. They bought micro-single cameras and long-focus lenses that cost tens of thousands of Yuan without even blinking. Then, they invited their friends to go watch the Lotus flowers and birds. Some of the richer people even bought off-road vehicles. With their backs to the camera, they drove through the deserts and grasslands. It was a real sunset. They had money and time, and they lived more carefreely than young people. Retirement was the beginning of a new life.

Then, he looked at welder Zhao. He was simply ... He didn't know what he was saving money for. He didn't bring it with him when he was born, and he didn't take it with him when he was dead ...

Electrician Wu was full of bitterness. He pulled Zhang Zian and told him everything about welder Zhao.

It turned out that welder Zhao's friends had recently started to play sea fishing, and they invited welder Zhao to play with them. Welder Zhao didn't know how to fish, and he wasn't interested in sea fishing. But on second thought, he might be able to catch some rare fish by sea fishing. He wouldn't have to go to Zhang Zian's aquarium all day and look at those strange fish that he couldn't afford.

He had heard that the fish in Zhang Zian's shop were bought from nearby fishermen. The fishermen would catch strange fish and sell them to Zhang Zian. Since the fishermen could catch it, the fishing buddies could probably catch it too. Didn't that mean they didn't have to spend a single cent?

Welder Zhao made up his mind, but on the surface, he was hesitating. He knew that he had to raise money to buy some sea fishing tools in the beginning. If he planned to go fishing for a long time, he might have to raise money to buy a boat or rent a boat. So, he kept saying that he didn't have time at the moment. He planned to wait until they had enough money to buy what they needed before he agreed to join Qin Zhuan studio. They were all colleagues who had known each other for many years. They wouldn't ask him to make up for the money, would they?

The workmates 'Fishing Team had been established for some time now, and they had bought all the things they needed. They had also held a few fishing activities. At this time, welder Zhao had shamelessly hinted and hinted at them. They said,"you can do it. You can just buy a suitable fishing rod." So, welder Zhao went to the fishing equipment store to buy a fishing rod.

Up until now, electrician Wu had nothing to do, because electrician Wu usually took care of the fish tank and took care of his grandson. His life was leisurely and fulfilling. He had heard that his retired colleagues had set up a Fishing Team, but he had no intention of joining in the fun.

However, when welder Zhao went to the fishing equipment shop and asked, he couldn't help but click his tongue. That was because the kind of fishing rods designated by the sea fishing Team were not cheap. A mere rod cost more than a thousand dollars. If it weren't for his colleagues 'repeated reminders, he might have really cut one himself with wood and bamboo. The fishing rod that cost more than a thousand dollars was just a little lighter. Why was it so expensive?

No matter what he said, the owner of the fishing gear shop wouldn't listen and wouldn't lower the price. In the end, he couldn't help but be pestered by him. He couldn't stand him coming to the shop every day and staying there for half a day, which affected the business. He relented and said that one fishing rod couldn't lower the price, and that if you wanted to buy two, he would give you the wholesale price.

Welder Zhao immediately thought of electrician Wu, so he ran to his house and asked him to go fishing with him. If they caught any strange fish, they would take turns to share them.

Electrician Wu pointed at his nose and scolded him. He asked,"why didn't you think of me when it came to good things? why did you think of me when it came to spending money?" I won't go.

Of course, welder Zhao was even more pestering in front of his old buddy. He immediately said,"if you don't agree, I'll come to your house every day to get free food."

Electrician Wu was afraid of him now, because this guy would fight for good food with his grandson while freeloading.

At this time, electrician Wu's family also tried to persuade him to go with welder Zhao. It wasn't like his family couldn't afford the 1800 Yuan.

In everyone's opinion, fishing was a very good activity for middle-aged and elderly people. It could cultivate their sentiments, cultivate their character, and strengthen their interpersonal relationships, so that they would not become more lonely as they got older. As for other things, they were secondary. At least it was much better than eating, drinking, and gambling. It did not affect others like Square dancing.

Electrician Wu had no choice but to agree first. He then contacted his colleagues 'Fishing Team and asked if they needed more people. After getting a positive answer, he went to the fishing equipment store with welder Zhao another day. They each bought a fishing rod at a discounted price.

Now that they had fishing rods, neither of them knew how to fish, so they could only wait patiently for the next event held by the co-workers 'Fishing Team.

Yesterday, they had received news that the sea fishing Team was planning to hold an event this afternoon, and they were informed to participate.

After lunch, the two of them rode their bikes and rushed to the gathering point by the sea. Because they had plenty of time, they happened to see Zhang Zian when they passed by the Pet Shop, so they stopped to say hello.

Zhang Zian understood and admired welder Zhao's shamelessness. He was even willing to take advantage of his long-time colleague.

Electrician Wu sighed from the side and shook his head. He said that it was a shame to be careless in making friends. He originally said that they had prepared the utensils and didn't ask for money, so it wouldn't be good for them to go empty-handed on their first trip. They should at least buy two boxes of drinks to bring along. However, welder Zhao rejected him on the grounds that it was inconvenient to bring along when riding a bike.

Welder Zhao found an excuse for himself, saying that electrician Wu was slandering him.

Although the two of them were constantly chatting, anyone with a discerning eye could immediately see the deep friendship between them. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to continue to hang out while complaining.

In order to change the topic, welder Zhao asked loudly again,""Brother Zhang, you haven't answered. Just now, you were staring at your shop in a daze. Were you trying to read its face?"

"Oh, it's the typhoon season again. Just in case, I plan to strengthen the doors and windows of these two shops and make the roof waterproof again. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if there is a leak in the storm and hail." Zhang Zian explained,"I was in a daze just now because I was thinking about how to do it."

Electrician Wu nodded and agreed,""We do need to prepare. Even if the typhoon doesn't pass through our city, it will still rain heavily. The wind can even blow down trees. I've seen it with my own eyes. When that happens, the sewers can't drain so much water. It's all blocked by garbage. The entire Street has become flooded. We have to row small boats when we go out. All cars and motorcycles will turn off and die ..."

Welder Zhao interrupted him, patted his chest, and said,""Aiya! It turns out to be such a small matter ... Brother Zhang, you don't have to worry, leave this matter to me! Make the windows into blinds that can be opened and closed. No matter if it's hailstones or stones blown by the wind, they won't break the glass inside. Add a few more layers of waterproof material on the roof to ensure that it won't leak!"

"Uh, how can I accept this ..." Zhang Zian wanted to decline.

Electrician Wu chimed in,"little Zhang, you don't have to be so polite. He's the best at this. He's the one who did all the renovations for our old buddies 'houses. He has his ways of getting cheap renovation materials, and his skills aren't bad either. Just leave this to him. You don't have to pay a single cent."

"If I don't pay, I'll lose money ..."

Welder Zhao was about to raise an objection when electrician Wu shouted back,""What a loss! Can't you be a little more mature? If it wasn't for her warm-hearted nature, you would have been sleeping in a small square box and enjoying the incense of the world! You still have the face to ask for money?"

"I'm just saying ..." Welder Zhao stopped talking.
