The pet I raised comes from the second dimension.

Chapter 21: Enduring hardship is not enough; one must also be able to endure hardship.

After delivering the last takeaway order, Huang Musong went to the supermarket and went in alone to buy things.

The supermarket is on the second floor.
The first floor is the food area.
There is a gym on the third floor.

Huang Musong took the escalator from bottom to top,

At the same time, several young men with double-door builds were taking the escalator down from the top.

Inadvertently, a strong young man among them recognized Huang Musong at first sight.

"Da Huang? You are Da Huang!"

When Huang Musong heard someone calling him, he was stunned for a moment, feeling a little confused. He turned his head and looked at the other person carefully.

The young man was wearing a hurdle vest, his whole body was muscular and as strong as an ox.

The more I look at it, the more familiar it looks.
Huang Musong suddenly recognized the other person from his eyes and recognized that he was his college classmate Shi Yinghua.

In college, Shi Yinghua never studied and consistently failed exams. He eventually spent money retaking credits and barely managed to graduate, nearly delaying his studies. Despite his dislike for studying, Shi Yinghua had a knack for making money, starting as a part-time fitness trainer in his sophomore year.

Looking at the current situation, being a fitness trainer has become his main job. His clothes and shoes are all branded. I guess he makes a lot of money...

I realized that the poor students in my class are doing better than me in society.
Huang Musong couldn't help but feel a little envious.

Shi Yinghua likes to build interpersonal relationships very much. After recognizing his old classmates, he quickly said goodbye to his colleagues.

He walked against the flow, took big strides up the escalator, and put his arm around Huang Musong's shoulder with a smile on his face.

“It’s really Rhubarb!”

"Remember me? I, Lao Shi, always ask you to copy answers during exams."

"It's so rare to meet someone after graduation. Let's have dinner later. I'll pay for it..."

The arm circumference of 44 is thicker than the girl's legs.

Shi Yinghua hugged Huang Musong tightly, as if afraid that he would run away.

Huang Musong was quite surprised to meet his old classmates, but he couldn't resist the pressure of time.

He hurriedly explained to the other party that he was in a hurry to catch the shuttle bus.

However, after hearing the reason, Shi Yinghua took out a hundred-dollar bill and stuffed it into the other person's pocket without hesitation.

"I'll pay for the taxi! Let's go, have dinner together and catch up."

Shi Yinghua enthusiastically dragged Huang Musong to the food area.
He is quite generous.

Huang Musong couldn't refuse and nodded in agreement.

We ate and talked over dinner until nine o'clock.

During a meal together, Huang Musong was stunned to learn that his partner had made a whopping 80 yuan in two years. Adding the 20 yuan he'd saved during college, and the bank app data showing a seven-figure balance was enough to convince him otherwise.

However, Shi Yinghua will become rich, and Huang Musong is only envious but not jealous.

Because ordinary people simply cannot replicate Shi Yinghua’s success!

It is quite difficult to maintain long-term fitness.

Coupled with the technology of muscle growth, each injection of medicine will affect lifespan.

Huang Musong was not at all jealous of exchanging his life for money.

Similarly, Shi Yinghua also understood this and did not show off his wealth.

"That's a great job you just found!"

"I can start as a fruit agent. When I succeed, I can set up my own company and then contract an orchard for planting. With funds, I can expand and open a shopping mall. I can be a big entrepreneur in the future."

"When you make a lot of money, don't forget to help your buddies, OK?"

Shi Yinghua smiled brightly and sincerely.

Huang Musong is a person who likes to do things quietly. When his future prospects were discussed by his old classmates on the spot, his face turned slightly red.

"Hey! I just want to make a living. I don't have the ability to be an entrepreneur."

"I haven't been able to resolve any of my recent problems. I haven't been able to find a partner in two months. I'm afraid the oranges I contracted will rot in the fields."

tangerine?

Two months?
Shi Yinghua was stunned on the spot.

Nowadays, oranges mature in winter and are put on the market. Autumn oranges are rarely seen on the market. It's early May now, and midsummer is two months away. How can oranges ripen in the middle of summer? If they can't be sold, they'll rot in the fields. This isn't the normal growing cycle for oranges...

I don't understand, but I respect it.

Shi Yinghua believed what his old classmate said for the time being.

At the same time, based on these words, Shi Yinghua smelled a business opportunity.

"When the fruits are harvested in the summer and put on the market, they will definitely be a hot seller during the off-season. If you are serious, how about we work together? I will help you with a small part of the marketing first!" As he suggested, Shi Yinghua raised his hand and pointed upstairs. He meant to open up the channel to the supermarket on the second floor.

The supermarket's deputy manager is a member of the gym.

A woman in her thirties, single and unmarried.

The more unmarried,

The more demand there is in a certain aspect,
The most rare thing about a young and strong man is that he is as vigorous as a wolf.

Shi Yinghua has plenty of ways to get the female manager to cooperate with him!
After understanding what his old classmate meant, Huang Musong nodded and agreed, thinking that it was worth a try.

The one who sacrificed his appearance was Shi Yinghua,

I just need to provide oranges.

If things go well and we make money, we'll give Shi Yinghua a share of the profits. It's a win-win situation!
Without hesitation, Huang Musong agreed and continued to eat and chat with the other party.

...

To be honest, Shi Yinghua was very surprised that Huang Musong was willing to cooperate.

Before saying goodbye, Shi Yinghua put his arm around his shoulders and teased him, "You were so clueless when you were in college, but why are you so readily agreeing to cooperate with us today?"

"Heh." Huang Musong laughed dryly, "I didn't understand it when I was in school. I only understood it after suffering the beatings of society."

“What do you understand?”

“To endure hardship is just to know how to endure hardship.”

"That's right!"

"In this world, it's too difficult to make money without some tricks."

"If you had understood this when you were in college, we would have been making a lot of money together, wouldn't we have become rich by now?"

"Yeah. I was young and stubborn."

After dinner, Huang Musong and Shi Yinghua walked and talked. When they reached the intersection, Huang Musong got into a ride-hailing service alone and headed back to the town in the south of the city.

The dining area is actually closer to the basement.

The basement rental lasts until the end of the month and is still habitable.

However, thinking of Duoluo waiting at home, Huang Musong couldn't bear to let it down.

No matter how late it is, you must go home!

Just like that, I took an online taxi and arrived home on time at 10 o'clock in the evening.
-
Doro at home was crawling around idly.

The new house is spacious and I can exercise however I want.

Duoluo saw a turtle crawling on TV and thought it was very interesting, so he started to imitate the turtle's crawling.

Suddenly I heard the sound of keys outside the door.

Duo Luo quickly raised his head,
Gurgle and roll.
It simulates the image of a turtle in the sea water.

Duolao rolled quietly into the hallway, holding his breath, ready to scare someone.

"Wow~"

The clumsy prank couldn't scare Huang Musong at all.

Instead, its clumsy behavior made Huang Musong see the not-so-obvious red marks again.

Remember that Duoluo may have been bullied by others,

He no longer dragged on.

This time I asked immediately,

He intends to find out what happened!

Duoluo was reluctant to explain, thinking it didn't want to cause trouble. But unable to withstand the questioning, it finally timidly recounted its experience on Thursday afternoon, its tone becoming increasingly aggrieved.

What Duo Luo felt wronged about was not being beaten.

Those few whippings didn't hurt.
At most, it will be frightened due to stress.

What really makes Doro feel aggrieved is that all his bottles were snatched away~!

Huang Musong doesn't care about the bottle,

He didn't expect that such a terrible incident would happen when he was not with Dora.

What the hell!
Huang Musong clenched his fists tightly, and at this moment he wished he could find the old woman immediately and slap her face to vent his anger.

Ugh.
Now being angry won't solve the problem.

Huang Musong calmed down as quickly as possible, ordered takeout, and bought safflower oil for Duoluo, which is specially used to treat bruises and swelling.

Before going to bed, I applied medicine to Duoluo and confirmed that it was not injured.

The red marks will heal in a few days.

But still...

Huang Musong could never swallow this humiliation!
It is necessary to find an opportunity to teach the old woman who picks up rubbish a lesson.

Lying on the bed, Huang Musong thought for a while and decided to instill the most basic safety concepts into Doro.

"Doro, next time you get beaten, be sure to run away if you can."

"If you really can't run away, find a way to fight back. Don't show weakness and get beaten."

"Also, remember! If you encounter any danger, feel free to call me. I'll buy you a cell phone in a couple of days. Once your pet ID card is issued, you won't be a stray furry kid wandering around anymore."

Huang Musong kept talking earnestly.

Since getting the hammer, Doro's combat power is roughly equal to that of a 14-year-old boy or girl.

Although not strong,
At least have enough ability to protect yourself,
You won’t be bullied too much.

In terms of improving his abilities, what Duo Luo lacks at the moment is the mentality to be able to stand on his own two feet.

Huang Musong hopes it can grow stronger!
Duoluo vaguely understood what people said, but couldn't fully comprehend it. He was confused and unsure of the line between "protecting himself" and "attacking others".

So, Duoluo thought for a moment and asked seriously, "Human... I don't quite understand what you're saying. Tomorrow, can I bring a friend home with me? From now on, when we go out, I'll go with a close friend. We can protect each other and won't get bullied anymore!"

　A second wild doro is about to join the family
