Great, It's the Pervy Neighbor. We're Doomed

Chapter 502: Partnering Up to Lease a Fish Pond

The filming officially began."Uncle, is it your fishpond that you want to rent out?"

Zhang Xue had clearly dressed up specially today.

JK outfit with black stockings.

Paired with her light makeup, it was exceptionally eye-catching.

The youthfulness, mixed with a slightly mature aura, combined in a way that made it truly hard to look away.

Some people suit heavy makeup, some are best with light makeup, and for others, their natural face is their most beautiful state.

At least for Wang Qingzhao and Zhang Xue, both their natural faces and light makeup suited them perfectly.

The owner of this fishpond was a middle-aged man with an honest, simple-looking face.

He was also dressed very plainly.

He nodded at Zhang Xue, "Yes, young lady, it's my family's fishpond."

Zhang Xue glanced around; this fishpond was not small.

She then said, "Uncle, how much are you planning to rent this fishpond out for?"

The middle-aged man held up two fingers, "Twenty thousand."

Zhang Xue frowned and scanned the area, "How big is this fishpond of yours? How many kilograms of fish are in it?"

The middle-aged man said, "My fishpond is 30 acres. There should still be over five thousand kilograms of fish left now. As for the types of fish, we have everything like silver carp, grass carp, you name it."

"I haven't taken care of it for a long time either. I've been busy lately, taking my son to Magic City for medical treatment."

As soon as he finished speaking.

A young man with a limp walked over from the distance.

That young man, his right leg seemed to be the problematic one, walking with a pronounced limp.

It took him a great deal of effort to finally reach Zhang Xue and the middle-aged man.

Seeing this, Zhang Xue asked, "Uncle, this is your son, right?"

The middle-aged man nodded, and as he nodded, he grew sad.

Seeing that the middle-aged man's son was about her age but disabled, Zhang Xue felt somewhat sad.

So she asked how his leg had ended up like that.

The middle-aged man let out a deep sigh, "He was naughty as a child, went to play in the mountains, and accidentally fell down. His leg ended up like this."

"Back then, the family was poor and couldn't afford proper treatment for him, so it left a chronic problem."

"Now, he's older, it's time for him to get married."

"It's hard for a disabled person to find a wife these days! That's why I'm preparing to sell the fish I've worked so hard to raise."

"To take him to a good, big hospital to get his leg looked at."

Seeing this, Zhang Xue was deeply moved.

She, who had originally intended to haggle over the price, simply decided not to and agreed to the uncle's asking price. She considered it doing a good deed.

Afterwards, she had the water pumping crew she had contacted earlier start working.

Because pumping the water would take quite some time.

To enrich the video content, the group followed the middle-aged man to his home to take a look.

Arriving at the middle-aged man's home, it was a two-story cement building.

The space inside the house was quite large, but it was very empty, with hardly any furniture.

When Jiang Ran followed Zhang Xue and the others to the middle-aged man's house.

His wife was preparing lunch.

She insisted on having them stay for a meal.

This lunch was also made using locally sourced ingredients.

There were plenty of vegetable dishes, but for meat dishes, apart from fish, it was just more fish.

From this, it was clear that this family's life was indeed quite difficult.

The middle-aged fishpond owner's family had five members.

Besides him, his wife, and his son with the limp, there was also a daughter who had just graduated from university not long ago, and his wife's younger brother, that is, the pond owner's brother-in-law.

The whole family was extremely warm-hearted and hospitable.

Zhang Xue and the others also had a very pleasant lunch here.

Because pumping the water would take a long time, estimated to finish only by tomorrow morning when they could cast the nets to catch the fish.

So, the filming was also interrupted.

Zhang Xue and her group drove to the town nearest to Xiaoshi Village and stayed overnight at a hotel in the town.

In the evening, they found a small restaurant in the town. Of course, learning from last night's lesson, they got a private room this time.

Inside the private room.

Zhang Xue said to Jiang Ran and the others with a smile, "Since we're all here, how about we all invest together and rent this fishpond?"

Zhang Xue's meaning was simple: everyone present could jointly invest in renting this fishpond.

The benefit of doing this was that if they lost money, it wouldn't bankrupt one person alone.

If they made a profit, they would all share it.

Zhao Yiwan raised her hand and said, "Count Qin Chuan and me in."

Zhang Xue was essentially their boss, and also a friend who treated them very well.

So they definitely wanted to participate.

Qin Chuan didn't care either way; the money would be provided by his girlfriend Zhao Yiwan, he had no money himself.

Gao Yang said, "I'll join too."

Even though they were boyfriend and girlfriend, showing support was a must.

Seeing that everyone else was joining in, Wang Qingzhao also said, "Then I'll play along too, count me in."

At this point, it was true that everyone else was in, leaving only Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran didn't care much about whether the fishpond would make money or not; he considered it a small gamble for fun.

So he agreed as well.

This way.

The pond rental was twenty thousand.

With six people present, each person's share averaged around 3,333 yuan.

Of course, the labor costs for this water pumping and net casting were all paid by Zhang Xue, so they weren't included.

Because payment was needed, Jiang Ran also added Zhang Xue as a WeChat friend, preparing to pay on the spot like the others.

However, just as he was about to pay, he suddenly received a message from Zhang Xue:

"No need to pay. I've covered your share. Consider it repayment for saving my life last night, and for the over one thousand yuan you compensated that person."

Seeing this, Jiang Ran was momentarily stunned. Afterwards, he looked up and happened to meet Zhang Xue's gaze.

Her large eyes were curved, filled with goodwill.

Since that was the case, Jiang Ran accepted this kindness.

However, Jiang Ran felt that Zhang Xue's boyfriend, Gao Yang, definitely wouldn't expect.

His girlfriend would do something like this.

If discovered, these two would probably be able to start arguing again.

Having repaid Jiang Ran's kindness, Zhang Xue's appetite for the meal also increased.

She started using her chopsticks very quickly.

Soon, the time reached past eight o'clock the next morning.

Jiang Ran and the group arrived at Xiaoshi Village, at the fishpond.

Looking out, the water had been pumped out almost completely.

Now it was time to cast the nets and catch the fish.

Zhang Xue naturally hired people who specialized in this work, though she herself would also go down into the pond.

This was also a major selling point of the videos she filmed.

After all, going down into the pond to catch fish would definitely get her face and body covered in mud.

It's not a big deal if a guy gets covered in it.

But how many women have you seen get themselves all dirty like that?

And a beautiful woman at that?

Women are usually unwilling to do this kind of work.

Therefore, Zhang Xue was playing with contrast.

She was doing what others couldn't see in other short videos.

That's what gave it competitive edge.

Especially since today, Zhang Xue was still wearing the same outfit as yesterday, the JK and black stockings.

This was quite something.

Apart from Zhang Xue, none of the others went down into the pond.

Including Jiang Ran and Wang Qingzhao.

They weren't filming a video, so why should they go down?

Of course, those who wanted to experience the fish catching could.

Jiang Ran naturally had no desire to experience it.

He just wanted to know exactly how many fish were in this fishpond.
