The next day, when Lin Dong woke up, Yu Tongtong extended her hand.
"Do you think I'm a tailor superman!" Lin Dong snappily replied to her. Actually, if Lin Dong wanted to forge, he would only need an hour at most. However, Lin Dong felt that it wasn't good to be too fast. These girls wouldn't know how to appreciate it. They might even follow behind him every day to ask him how to make new clothes. So, he tried to slow down. Another reason was that Lin Dong had given the Kan Li Pearl to Ling Xiao. He didn't have any ice and fire energy to use. Not only would he waste more energy, his forging speed wouldn't be as fast as before.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Yu Tongtong quickly massaged Lin Dong's shoulders. She learned this trick from Xiao Yuanlian.
As for Xiao Yuanlian?
This was a talent that girls who knew how to act cute were born with! Didn't she see how easy it was for Chu Ling'er and the cute girl?
Qianjun was ready to accompany Cheng Mingge.
When he opened the door, he saw He Jinshui and Crooked Head kneeling outside.
He didn't know how long they had been kneeling. Were they asking for forgiveness? What mistake did they make?
Lin Dong didn't understand either.
When he saw Lin Dong walk out, the short He Jinshui trembled like a patient soaked in ice water. He almost died on the spot. As for the tall and burly Crooked Head and a few other underlings, they burst into tears on the spot. When Lin Dong saw them like this, he was puzzled. How did they end up like this?
"Who bullied you?" Lin Dong asked.
"No, no!" He Jinshui handed over a big black box with trembling hands. "We, we, we failed to live up to your expectations. We deserve to die. We actually raised the scorpion to death … Brother Hu asked us to chop off one of our hands to apologize to you!"
He Jinshui took out a big machete with trembling hands. It seemed like he wanted to chop off his left hand.
Lin Dong opened the box and took a look.
He stopped him. "Wait! Tell me everything that happened! "
He Jinshui quickly reported everything that had happened in the past few days. The past few days had been the same as usual, feeding the scorpions without any special circumstances. Because scorpions could eat anything, and they ate a lot, it was easy to feed them. After a long time, people didn't care too much about it. They just needed to remember to provide a lot of fresh food for every meal. In the past, when the scorpions were young, they were fed all kinds of insects. Now that they had grown up, He Jinshui and the others realized that these scorpions could eat anything, whether it was flying in the sky, walking on the ground, or swimming in the water. As long as it was fresh, they would eat it.
Therefore, he had been raising them like this.
Sometimes he would order some fish for a change, sometimes he would order some fresh meat for nourishment, and sometimes he would find some worms as a snack.
The scorpions did not refuse any of the scorpions. They ate crazily, and their bodies were also growing crazily. Now, the smallest one was the size of a palm, and the largest one was almost half a meter long with its tail.
He Jinshui noticed that some of the scorpions were huge, while others were relatively small. He felt that the food supply was not uniform enough, which meant that some of the scorpions were not full. Therefore, he thought of a way to add food to the relatively small scorpions.
Moreover, he suddenly had the idea to feed these scorpions some fish and prawns caught from the deep sea.
He even fed them sea snakes, sea eels, sea cucumbers, and so on.
In short, he gave the relatively small scorpions all the delicious food that he could make.
"I thought that since the scorpions had not eaten the delicacies of the sea in their entire lives, they would definitely be able to get some nutrients. I didn't expect that after feeding them for a few days, they would all die!" He Jinshui was very regretful. If he had strictly followed Lin Dong's instructions and only fed the scorpions insects, then such a tragedy would never have happened.
Now, the scorpions were dead.
If Lin Dong was angry, then the relationship that Brother Hu had built up with so much effort would probably be in vain!
He Jinshui felt that this sin was worth it if he could repair it by cutting off one hand. The problem was, would Lin Dong trust him again because of one hand?
Lin Dong held the box in silence for a few seconds.
In these few seconds, He Jinshui felt like a few years had passed.
It was extremely difficult. He didn't know what kind of trial he would face next. If Lin Dong snorted and said that he didn't need to cut off his hand and go back, then Brother Hu might put him in a barrel of gasoline and sink him into Dong Mountain Bay …
"Your thoughts are very childish, but your heart is good." Lin Dong suddenly bent down and patted He Jinshui's shoulder. "For the sake of your kindness, I won't blame you even if the scorpion dies, let alone the fact that it's still alive!" As soon as he said that, He Jinshui and the others suddenly widened their eyes and exclaimed, "The scorpions are not dead?"
"But they haven't moved for three days!" He Jinshui actually didn't dare to report to Lin Dong when he first realized that something was wrong. He hoped that the scorpions were just hibernating like when they were young and that they would be fine after a good night's sleep.
However, three days passed.
The scorpions were still motionless, which made him feel that something was wrong.
In the past, when they were hibernating, their bodies would sometimes wriggle slightly, and the temperature of their bodies was not as cold as stone.
He Jinshui went to find people, including the professionals who raised the scorpions. They all shook their heads and said that they were indeed dead. Their bodies were stiff, so He Jinshui brought them to Lin Dong in despair to ask for forgiveness.
Now that Lin Dong said that they were not dead, could it be that they were really not dead?
Looking at their surprised and expectant eyes …
Lin Dong nodded. "Your actions are actually wrong. First of all, let me make one point clear. In a scorpion group, smaller bodies are actually better. It's just that their genes are better and they take longer to grow. That's why they grow slowly. Secondly, you're right to give them more food, because they do need more nutrition than their own kind. Third, you are not wrong to give them deep-sea fish, snakes, and so on. I've told them before that they can eat anything because it seems like there's nothing they can't digest … You gave them deep-sea fish, so it's possible that some deep-sea fish or some kind of deep-sea fish have some special genes that caused them to mutate. "
He Jinshui wiped his cold sweat and took a few deep breaths with lingering fear in his heart.
Hearing this news …
He was like a prisoner on death row who was suddenly declared innocent and released. He really wanted to thank God for giving him a chance to be reborn!
"These scorpions are like dead after they mutated?" Cheng Mingge looked at the scorpions in the big black box strangely and found that they were really like dead, motionless.
"No, it's a good thing that they mutated, but they are still young and can't adapt to such a huge mutation in a short time, so they need to hibernate for a long time. If we don't care about them, they will probably stay like this for a year, or even longer. This kind of mutation is a good thing, and it's very rare. " Lin Dong nodded to He Jinshui and the rest. "No matter what the process was, the result was beyond my expectations. So, not only will I not blame you, but I will also find an opportunity to praise you!"
"I don't dare to praise you. We didn't do a good job. As long as you don't get angry, it's fine!" He Jinshui was overjoyed. Not only did he not blame them, but he was even praised. It seemed that today was his lucky day.
"Giving you some money seems a bit tacky." Lin Dong seemed to be thinking about what to give as a reward.
"No need, no need!" He Jinshui waved his hands.
He didn't dare to take Lin Dong's money.
Even if it was a reward, he couldn't take it! Brother Hu would definitely reward him handsomely when he got back. If he took the money back, Brother Hu would really be angry!
Lin Dong said that he wanted to reward them because he wanted to win the hearts of He Jinshui and the rest. Don't be fooled by the fact that they were from a hedonistic society. Their power of faith was much purer than many of the patients' family members who received donations. Moreover, when using people to do things, one had to pay attention to technique. Threaten them with a big stick, then give them a reward. Otherwise, who would work for you?
"How about this. Later, you guys go over there and give them strengthening shots. One for each of them, two for Crooked Head, and three for you. This is my reward. In the future, you guys continue to think of ways to raise them properly. If you're not afraid of them dying, you guys can come up with new ways to feed them. If you can raise more mutated ones, I will reward you handsomely in the future! " Lin Dong didn't even let go of Zhang Degui and his wife's power of faith. Of course, he didn't mind letting He Jinshui and the rest become his ATM! Moreover, they truly worshipped you. Why would you push them away just because of your identity in the hedonistic society? Moreover, turning the hedonistic society over to the right path was a good deed of enlightenment. It was a good deed that would benefit society!
As expected, when Lin Dong said that, He Jinshui also burst into tears.
Of course, they knew about strengthening shots.
However, they couldn't buy it even if they had money. Not to mention them, even their boss, Brother Tiger, didn't have it.
Now that Lin Dong wanted to reward them with strengthening shots, even if it was just one, two, or three shots, it would still be a great reward … Unexpectedly, not only did they not have to chop off an arm to make amends, but they also got a blessing in disguise and got the strengthening shot as a reward!
Crooked Head and the rest.
They were even crying a mess.
Being with a "boss" like Lin Dong was too awesome. Scum like him who was only fit to stay at the bus station and be a thief could actually get strengthening shots. How many billionaires on Dong Mountain didn't have that? This life was really worth it!
"Leave these scorpions here. I'll leave the rest to you guys. Take good care of them and go back!" Lin Dong held the black box and turned to leave.
"Yes!" He Jinshui quickly led Crooked Head and the rest to kowtow to Lin Dong.
This wasn't the time to be scared.
They kowtowed with 100% sincerity, infinite reverence, and fanatical worship!
As soon as Lin Dong entered the door, they immediately got up and called their boss, Brother Tiger, to tell him the good news. Liang Xiao had been restless the whole morning, waiting for this call. If Lin Dong forgave them, not to mention one hand, he could chop off a few more hands. The most frightening thing was that he wouldn't forgive them! As soon as the call went through, He Jinshui's excited voice completely changed. "Brother Tiger, Brother Tiger, Brother Tiger, I'm fine, I'm fine …"
"Calm down, speak clearly!" Liang Xiao was excited. It sounded like Lin Dong wasn't angry?
"We're fine. Not only did we not have to chop off our hands, but we also got praised. Young Master Lin said that if we raised them well, they wouldn't die, but mutated. He also told us to raise as many mutated ones as possible in the future. He even rewarded me, rewarded us with three needles, two needles for Crooked Head, and one needle for everyone. We can all be enhanced. Brother Tiger, I feel like I'm dreaming! "He Jinshui was so excited that he could barely speak coherently.
"Very good. When you come back, I will also reward you handsomely!" Liang Xiao was in a good mood. This subordinate of his was lucky. It was clearly a bad thing, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise!
"Ah, Brother Tiger, why don't I give you the strengthening shots?" He Jinshui suddenly wanted to suck up to Lin Dong, so he quickly expressed his opinion.
"If I wanted it, wouldn't I spend money to buy it? With just a few strengthening shots, I don't care! Jinshui, you don't have to think about this. Do your job well, and I promise you a bright future! Come back first. I will prepare two tables for you to celebrate! " Liang Xiao was such a person that a few strengthening shots were nothing to him. If it was the genes of the military's elite soldiers, he might be tempted. However, this was not a matter of money. He had to first get Lin Dong's approval. Therefore, it was more important to continue building a good relationship with him.
Not close enough?
Then let's continue working hard and let it continue to grow!
Wasn't it just raising some scorpions? How could a large corporation not be able to raise a few hundred scorpions? What a joke!
Liang Xiao hung up the phone. He suddenly thought of another person — Golden Tooth. It seemed like his opponent hadn't made a move for a long time … That wasn't right. Golden Tooth didn't look like someone who would just wait for death. He would definitely do something, but who knew what he was planning?
He waved his hand and signaled his right-hand man, Iron Head. "Go and investigate Golden Tooth's recent movements. I want the most detailed information. Don't miss even one suspicious person!"
