As Lin Meng invited He Jiong in as a guest, the curious villagers outside also left.
Only the cicadas under the shade of the trees were left, chirping tirelessly.
Inside the house.
Lin Meng asked Teacher He to sit down and said,"Francis, please take a seat. I'll pour you a cup of tea to quench your thirst.”
"Thank you." Mr. He smiled politely.”
Coincidentally, He Jiong was also a little thirsty. After talking for a long time, his throat was smoking, so he did not refuse.
Not long after, Lin Meng came up with an iron pot and two porcelain bowls.
After sitting down, Lin Meng poured a bowl for each of them.
He Jiong picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip. Then, his eyes lit up.
Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!
As his Adam's apple bobbed, He Jiong no longer cared about his image. A large cup of tea quickly fell into his stomach.
"Hu! Good tea! It's good to quench your thirst. Lemon, where did you buy this?”
He wiped the corner of his mouth and decisively poured himself another cup.
It was not that he was greedy. As a successful person, he had drunk all kinds of tea. However, this was the first time he had drunk tea with such a unique flavor.
Lin Meng smiled and said," I don't have the money to buy tea. I picked it myself on the mountain and mixed it with chrysanthemum, stevia leaves, bellflower, goji berry, and lemon leaves."”
"Oh?"
He Jiong was instantly interested.
"I've never heard of this kind of soaking method. Did you invent it yourself?”
In just a short while, He Jiong felt that he was no longer thirsty. Moreover, he was full of energy and his tongue was salivating. This tea was definitely not ordinary.
Lin Meng scratched his head in embarrassment." What invention? I've been tinkering with this all this time. I don't have the money to buy tea to entertain you, so I can only use this. I'm sorry to make you laugh."”
He Jiong smiled and did not reply.
Although the young man in front of him was very shy, he could not see any pride in his eyes. It was as if it was a matter of course that he had invented this magical tea.
He Jiong knew many people, but every time he saw this kind of gaze, he was sure that this person would not be someone ordinary in the future.
This was the gaze of a strategist!
Thinking of this, the way He Ji looked at Lin Meng changed.
He had a brilliant idea.
"By the way, Francis, I heard from Aunt Li that you came here to rent my house, right?”Lin Meng asked when he saw that He Jiong wasn't as hot anymore.
He had long heard that the people in the city were very generous. If he could rent out the house this time, he would have the money to go to university.
In the past, even if he worked hard to farm, he still needed the villagers to raise a large sum of money for him when school started.
He already owed the villagers enough, so he definitely could not trouble them this time.
Thinking of this, Lin Meng clenched his fists.
"At first, I had this intention, but now I have changed my mind.”
It was completely different from what Lin Meng had thought. He Ji actually said this.
"Why?"
Lin Meng was confused.
"My house was built by me, so it's definitely different from others. The crops in the fields can also be self-sufficient, so you can treat guests here. All of this can allow people to return to nature and find their inner voice. It completely meets the original intention of the show.”Lin Meng said everything that was on his mind.
After hearing Lin Meng's words, He Ji couldn't sit still anymore, and his eyes lit up.
"Who taught you to say these words?"
It was the first time He Jiong had heard such perfect words that fit his program's purpose.
He had thought of this program by chance, and there was only a vague framework. Lin Meng's words perfectly explained the vague concept in his heart.
It was simply magical!
"Why do you need someone else to tell me? Isn't the experience of living here for more than ten years enough?”Seeing that there seemed to be a turning point, Lin Meng sat down again.
"What an experience." He Jiong was conquered by Lin Meng's words.
He didn't keep her in suspense anymore and went straight to the point.
"What would you think if I asked you to be a guest of 'Life You Look Forward To?”He Jiong smiled at Lin Meng.
He could already imagine Lemon's agitated expression.
Becoming a celebrity was something that ordinary people dreamed of. Now that such a thing had happened to him, he would probably be overjoyed.
"What?!"
Lin Meng stood up with a face full of disbelief.
He Jiong laughed even more happily.
She knew he would have this expression.
"Francis, I really misjudged you!”Just as He Jiong was strategizing, Lin Meng looked at him with grief and indignation.
"Did you misjudge me? What did you see wrong about me?" He Jiong was instantly stunned.
Why did he feel that something was wrong?
At this moment, Lin Meng spoke again.
Lin Meng grabbed the teacup and teapot in front of Mr. He and held them in his arms. Then, he looked at the ceiling at a 45-degree angle.
"Teacher is right. The capitalists are all evil vampires. It's fine if you don't want to rent my house, but you want me to work for you. If I'm not wrong, you're thinking of hiring free labor!”
At this point, Lin Meng looked at the dumbfounded Teacher He and shook his head."I've long heard that some production teams rent other people's houses without paying and even freeload. I didn't expect it to fall on my head today, and that person is my idol, you. Teacher He, I'm so disappointed in you!”
On the other side, Teacher He Ji was already having difficulty breathing.
What the hell was taking back the teapot and teacups? Could it be that he would snatch it?
Moreover, the heavens had taken pity on him. This was the first time someone had said such things to him.
Vampires?
No money?
freeloading?
If you still have any prejudice against me in your mind, just say it.
I can take it. It's okay.
However, Lin Meng disappointed him. He just didn't say anything and kept looking at him with a 'I've misjudged you' expression.
In the end, He Jiong was defeated.
Let's not talk about whether he was happy or not.
With such a heaven-defying imagination and his innate sense of skill, he wanted to bring this 'honest' youth into the norm.
What was the point of being showcased? He could still bear it.
Help me up, I can still be shown off for a while.
"Lemon, do you have some misunderstanding about me? The house will still be rented, and you will be paid for participating in the show. It's not what you think at all!”
Teacher He tried to explain. He didn't look like a big shot in the entertainment industry at all. Instead, he looked like a eunuch who was coaxing a little emperor.
He believed that if he were to open the live broadcast room at this time, the audience would definitely be shocked and think that they had seen a fake He Jiong.
"Really?" Lin Meng felt that his tuition fees could be saved again after hearing He Jiong's words.
"Of course it's true. We can sign the contract immediately. You're also someone who has received nine years of compulsory education. You should believe in the contract, right?”Teacher He patted his chest and said.
" Then…" Lin Meng hesitated.
"Then I'll trust Francis one more time.”
Therefore, Teacher He willingly signed a series of unfair agreements.
Although the process was a little frustrating, for some reason, he was happy.
Was it because she was going through menopause and needed to have a son?
Otherwise, where did his willingness to serve the little Emperor come from?
After thinking for a long time, He Ji, who could not figure it out, took his briefcase and walked out of the door.
The time was set. The show would officially start shooting in three days. He still had to go back to Huang Lei to discuss the rest of the matter.
" Francis…" Lin Meng's voice sounded again.
He Jiong's legs were a little weak, but he still turned his head around.
"Why are you so nervous? I'm just sending you some chrysanthemum tea.”Lin Meng gave a silly smile and stuffed a bamboo jar into He Jiong's hands.
He Jiong laughed bitterly. Well, it seemed that his image of being greedy for chrysanthemum tea was set in stone.
Lin Meng grinned as he watched Mr. He leave.
The monthly rent was 10,000 yuan, and the program cost 100,000 yuan. This was a huge sum for him.
Not only did he solve the problem of tuition fees, but he also had a surplus.
Rubbing his belly, Lin Meng smiled and said,"Hehe buddy, I won't let you starve in the future.”
