The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 846: The Anchor’s Sense of Smell

"Take a look first, you might be able to rent it," Li Qing said with a smile. "But, this matter, you’ve got to like it yourself, right?"

Although dressed quite maturely, the woman who looked barely in her early twenties nodded as she looked around, "You’re more thoughtful, brother. Honestly, it was just a spur of the moment thing, I really haven’t thought everything through yet."

"You dare to start this without having thought everything through?" Li Qing was a bit surprised. Are young people starting businesses so casually these days?

If there wasn’t a mine at home, a small venture could easily leave one unable to get back on their feet.

Small businesses may seem to require little investment, but once you start, you need money for every aspect. Throwing a few tens of thousands in there is like playing around—if you don’t have sufficient operating funds, you’ll either collapse or... collapse even harder.

But it’s a different story if you have savings or family support.

"Well, this... It’s just a change of location, and a slight change of style, really," the girl giggled. "I used to make those borderline videos on the platform, but after doing it for a while, it seems the audience got a bit of aesthetic fatigue. They don’t want to see my face and figure anymore, and the traffic has been steadily decreasing."

"The online store is still up and running fine, so even if I change locations, it won’t be affected. I just want to change the style and try making some videos on renovations and see how it goes."

"You’re pretty straightforward. I quite enjoy those borderline videos myself," Li Qing said with a laugh.

So, that was the real face behind those borderline girls in the videos, but still, she was quite attractive.

Her cheeks turned slightly red when Li Qing spoke with such frankness, "That... um, brother, you could check out mine. Actually, forget it. It’s pretty embarrassing to watch it in person."

Li Qing laughed heartily, "Just show me your account. I won’t watch it in front of you; I’ll check it out in private."

The girl hemmed and hawed, seemingly embarrassed by her own moniker, and eventually recited a string of ID numbers off her phone.

As Li Qing was ready to enjoy, Gao Li emerged from the room wearing an irrepressible smile at the corners of his mouth. It looked like not only had they made up, but they were also sweet on each other.

"Did she agree?" Li Qing asked.

Gao Li glanced at the woman standing next to Li Qing and nodded, "I told you she would agree. So, this lady is the one who wants to rent?"

"Hello, big brother. I just have a few small requests. Maybe we could talk first?" the woman said politely to Gao Li.

"Sure, sure," Gao Li responded eagerly. "How about this? I’ll show you the room first? We can talk as we look."

"That works," the woman said with a smile.

Watching the two of them head to a room on the left, Li Qing entered the numbers the woman had given and found her account.

"Nice Big Busty Girl... What a name, no wonder she was beating around the bush, way too embarrassed to say it. It is indeed a bit hard to say," Li Qing shook his head and chuckled, talking to himself.

The girl didn’t have many followers, just over fifty thousand, but there were quite a few videos—more than two hundred.

Li Qing casually clicked on one of the most recent ones, and a wave of youthful energy hit him.

Even though she claimed to make borderline videos, the actual content wasn’t risqué; there were no explicit exposures. Most of the videos were simply dancing or striking poses.

After browsing for a while, Li Qing decisively hit the follow button.

This feeling of watching a video with real people right beside you is pretty interesting.

Gao Li and the woman seemed to have almost finished negotiating, exiting the room with smiles and laughter.

"Qingzi, come over to my place for dinner tonight, let’s celebrate a bit," Gao Li said, looking delighted. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

"With your sister-in-law having such a big belly, forget about it, it’s too much trouble. So, did you close the deal?" Li Qing asked with a smile.

Gao Li and the woman nodded in unison, "Five thousand a year, renting annually for now, with an option to renew anytime. She’s allowed to make those simple renovations and mess around all she wants, I’m not particularly attached to that house anyway."

"What’s there for you to be attached about? After she renovates the place, you’re getting a free house upgrade; of course, any changes will be for the better. It’s not like she’ll turn it into a kennel for you to feel sentimental over," Li Qing joked.

The kid seemed to be acting a bit too smart for his own good after getting a bargain.

"We just talked about that. I might help her in the future or even chip in some money after the renovations," Gao Li said with a grin, "After all, once it’s spruced up, the house is still mine. Even though she said she just doesn’t want to be driven out unexpectedly, we should still be straightforward in our dealings."

"Alright, you guys can keep discussing the details. I’ll be heading back," Li Qing said, "And take what I just mentioned seriously; I wasn’t joking. If I were you, I’d take care of it right away and come back later to deal with your business here."

Gao Li suddenly smacked his forehead, "Right, right, I totally forgot in all the excitement. I’ll go right now."

Li Qing shook his head, still too carefree in his ways.

If something really went wrong, it would be too late for regrets.

"Brother, where do you live? I’ll visit you once I get things sorted out here," the woman suddenly asked Li Qing.

"The house next door that’s being renovated is mine. I’m currently staying at my brother’s place. Just ask Gao Li when the time comes; he knows the way," Li Qing said with a smile, waving his hand as he left The Gao Family’s house.

On his way back, Li Qing suddenly thought of something quite amusing.

It seemed like their village had abruptly bordered the internet.

Last night Brother Hu and his group of streamers arrived, and today another one showed up.

Li Qing wasn’t very savvy with online stuff. He usually played the role of a viewer who wouldn’t even bother commenting, let alone watch a live stream. But it appeared that their instincts were quite good.

By the time Li Qing got back to his sister-in-law’s place, everyone had already woken up and breakfast had been eaten.

The kitchen had soy milk and fried dough sticks left for him. His sister-in-law and the others were busy cleaning the rooms and sweeping the courtyard.

Even though the house was already clean, it seemed to be a task that needed to be repeated daily.

Put things back to where they belonged, give everything a wipe, even if it was already clean, it felt uncomfortable not to do it.

Li Qing held his soy milk, eating and watching them perform these meticulous tasks, when he suddenly noticed Qin Wenjun was missing and asked curiously, "Where did Wenjun go so early in the morning?"

"She’s gone to see Old Tang. She mentioned starting some project, right? She said the others were more difficult to handle, so she decided to set up that outdoor haunted house at the Rats’ Watch first, then measure the area in Burning Man Valley to order a batch of camping cabins," Yu Lan responded upon hearing him.

"She’s in such a hurry?" Li Qing was a bit surprised; she seemed rather impatient.
