Chapter 145: Being fooled every day
Bai Tao was full of expectations. She originally thought that a durian this big would at least have three lobes, and at worst two.
But as she peeled off the petals one by one, threw them away, and peeled them off again, the smile she had at the beginning was no longer on her face.
Finally, seeing the durian flesh that barely had two chambers after being peeled, Bai Tao's forehead twitched: "Sure enough, the more fancy the activities are, the more deceptive they are!"
She grumbled, and then snorted at the mall: "You're a scumbag."
If the mall hadn't flashed a screen to remind her that there was a fruit blind box flash sale, she wouldn't have been fooled.
'I'm fooled every day, but every time I try it's different.'
Mall: '...' It's as if you have done something good for Durian and want someone to repay you.
The original price of durian is ten coins per pound, but you bought one for thirty coins, and it's pretty good if you got one and a half boxes of flesh.
Bai Tao quickly picked up a piece of durian flesh, put it in his mouth, chewed it for a while, and then spat it out.
"Pah, pah, pah, what a crappy durian, it's tasteless." Not only does it not have the unique flavor of durian, but the durian flesh doesn't have any sweetness at all.
It's like soaking durian in water for a long time, and all the sweetness is gone.
The mall couldn't help but feel nervous, and quickly enlarged the page of the fruit blind box flash sale activity, and took a screenshot of the details.
There were several instructions written in small print on it, and the last one was: The final right of interpretation of this event belongs to the organizer of the event.
Next to this description, there is a line of reminder in red and black font, which is close to the color of the poster: Fruits are fresh products and cannot be returned once sold during flash sales.
After Bai Tao saw the enlarged screenshot, she smiled and said, "Okay, okay, play word games with me."
I spent the whole day hunting geese but got my eyes pecked by a goose!
"Just wait for me."
After saying this, Bai Tao continued to open other fruit blind boxes.
There are two hundred blind boxes of fruits. The other fruits are okay, although they are of different sizes, but they are not inedible.
The few durians that bloomed were either underdeveloped, overripe, or empty.
Bai Tao counted on her fingers and found that a blind fruit box cost thirty coins, and the seven durians that opened had less than four pieces of flesh that could be eaten.
Two hundred and ten coins were exchanged for four rooms of durian flesh which was not very sweet. It would be better to buy it at the normal price.
Bai Tao: "As expected, cheap goods are not good!"
Mall: “…” I don’t know who is always making excuses to complain that it’s not easy to support more than 200 people, so he just hangs out in group buying groups to grab group purchases when he has nothing to do.
The fruit blind box failed, and Bai Tao felt more and more aggrieved. It’s not like I don’t have money.
Rather than getting ripped off, it’s better to buy food for the villagers.
She opened the mall and searched, and happened to see a group buying event. Without saying a word, she immediately placed an order for two cakes, buying 100 of each.
After buying the cake and closing the shopping mall page, Bai Tao inexplicably felt like replenishing his stock to reduce cost losses.
After dinner, Bai Tao asked Bai Duoxi to get the cake from the warehouse.
"Ahem, this is durian mille-feuille cake, and this is strawberry pudding cake."
"Today happens to be the first day of the winter month, so let's celebrate the birthdays of everyone in our village who has a birthday this month."
Celebrating birthday?
The villagers were stunned when they heard this.
They know about celebrating birthdays, but when it comes to celebrating birthdays together, they don’t quite understand.
Bai Dashan was a little confused. Could it be that my aunt remembered it wrong?
He quickly reminded her, "Auntie, there are no elderly people in our village who are celebrating their birthdays this month."
Bai Tao waved her hands and said in a sophisticated manner, "I didn't say it was a birthday celebration, I said it was a birthday celebration."
"It's the people who have birthdays this month. Today, everyone in the village will celebrate their birthdays together." After saying that, she glanced at the villagers and asked, "How many people have birthdays this month?"
My aunt is young and is at the age where she can act as she pleases. It doesn’t matter if they don’t understand. They just need to cooperate with me.
Soon, six people in the crowd raised their hands high. The shorter ones were afraid that their hands were not high enough, so they stood on tiptoe and raised their hands high.
Bai Dashan also went forward to learn more about it, and after confirming that he remembered the date correctly, he returned to Bai Tao and said, "To answer your question, there are only six people in the village who have birthdays this month."
Bai Tao: "Okay."
"Duoxi, there are still some fruits in the warehouse. Take some people to move them out."
"See if there are any peanuts or sunflower seeds left. Oh, and take out the leftover drinks from the past two days."
If modern people saw this scene, they would never believe that this was a group of ancient people.
There are many kinds of fruits in the fruit blind box, including longan, watermelon, tangerine, orange, apple, cherry tomato...
These fruits vary in size, but they are all edible.
In order to prevent himself from always thinking about the fact that he was cheated today because of his desire for cheapness, Bai Tao decided to let the villagers destroy all the fruit blind boxes and pretend that he didn't see them.
"Dashan, send one copy to everyone on night patrol later."
The people of Taohua Village are serious about their work. Even if it is very busy here, the patrollers will not be negligent in the slightest. They can even be said to be more serious and careful.
Bai Dashan responded: "Okay, Auntie, don't worry, I won't leave any fellow villagers behind."
Bai Tao had brought cakes to the villagers before, but this was the first time she had brought durian mille-feuille and strawberry pudding cakes.
The campfire in Taohua Village has always been big, and it seems to be particularly lively today.
Outsiders could only see the flames lighting up the sky. As for other situations, nothing could be seen due to the obstruction of the tents.
Yang Song: "Sir, Miss Bai and the others are having a great time today."
Lu Xiaohao: “Yeah.” He also heard it. It seemed like they were celebrating a birthday for the villagers.
In fact, it’s not just Taohua Village that’s bustling, many people’s homes are also bustling.
After the female workers took the things back, their families were happy and once again thankful that they did not hesitate too much.
If they hesitate, these things today will have nothing to do with them.
Look at those people who regretted it later and wanted to apply, but none of the caravans were taken away.
Sing birthday song, light candles, make a wish, and cut the cake.
All this was particularly new to the villagers.
Especially the six people who were celebrating birthdays were both excited and nervous.
My aunt celebrated my birthday for me. It is such a blessing that others can’t even envy.
Bai Tao taught one by one, and the six villagers were so excited that some of them started to move forward in unison.
However, the other villagers did not laugh at him, but watched with envy.
The six people carried out the task seriously, with expressions that were indescribably solemn and pious.
When making a wish, the birthday villager put his hands together, looked pious, and said loudly and clearly: "I hope my aunt will be healthy, blessed with longevity and longevity!"
"I pray that my aunt will be happy every day, have good luck and good health, and that all her wishes will come true..."
"My wish is that my aunt gets better and better every year, and everything goes well..."
The voices of the six people were getting louder and louder. Bai Tao swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth and said, "Okay, okay, you guys are so thoughtful. You are all filial children..."
Thank you for the votes, and thank you for the tips~
