Chapter 251 Luo Pang Hardware
As soon as the subway door opened, Wang Ling grabbed Sheep's hand and ran to the subway car. The aunt in front of the platform was so shocked by Sheep's words that she froze in place and forgot to get on the train! When she came to her senses, the subway line 1 had already sped away with the sirens of the closing doors...
In the subway car, Wang Ling pulled Sheep, with a helpless expression on his face... In fact, Sheep's understanding was not wrong, but sometimes it would really scare people to pee when someone suddenly recognized him as a father!
Wang Ling didn't understand how he, a pure virgin like a blank sheet of paper, could suddenly become a father.
In fact, in this case, Sheep couldn't be blamed, because when he was in the Wang family villa, no one would explain the problem to Sheep. Because Sheep was young, when he was in the Wang family villa, the fountain pen and eraser, together with the villa monsters, had set up rules to prohibit telling dirty jokes in front of Sheep. Over time, this group of monsters who always talk about driving have become less able to talk to sheep.
Wang Ling feels that he should find an opportunity to explain to sheep in the future, popularize some necessary knowledge... to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Boss Luo's store is located at No. 300 Wuliang Road in the old city of Songhai City.
This is an old street with a long history.
Wang Ling once heard that the reason why this street was named Wuliang Road was because there was once a Wuliang Immortal Venerable who had a mansion here. Some people say that this entire mansion was built with the legendary Wuliang sacred tree.
In ancient times, the Wuliang tree was a sacred tree that could grow infinitely and reach the sky. But unfortunately, the last Wuliang tree recorded in history was destroyed by several powerful people in a national war.
The old painting of the old house is still circulating on the Internet. Wang Ling has also seen it. It is ancient and quaint. But the old painting was too old, and Wang Ling could not judge the reality of the old house from a painting.
However, the only thing Wang Ling could be sure of was that the old house was definitely no longer on Wuliang Road...
Because when Huaxiu Country was just founded, all the major blocks were being replanned and renovated, and the old house left by Wuliang Xianzun was rumored to have "died" at the hands of a demolition team...
Wang Ling followed the address and came to the door of a store called "Luo Pang Hardware".
The architectural styles on Wuliang Road are actually similar, all of them are ancient and colorful, and there is nothing iconic. You can only find the place you want to go by the house number.
After the demolition team accidentally demolished the old house left by Wuliang Xianzun, the subsequent government has been doing repair work. Later, they simply changed the entire Wuliang Road into a block, and erected a sculpture of Wuliang Tianzun at the intersection, with Wuliang Xianzun's personal profile written under the sculpture.
Then, this whole road inexplicably became the former residence of Wuliang Xianzun.
Wang Ling seriously suspected that the person who wrote the introduction probably didn't even know who Wuliang Xianzun was...
...
...
Wang Ling brought the sheep to the door of the store, and he found that the threshold of Boss Luo's store was unusually high, more than half a meter.
He stepped into the threshold holding the sheep, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw a fat man with a poopy head, wearing a white sweatshirt and big shorts, leaning on a bamboo chair, fanning himself with a palm leaf fan, and holding a pipe in his mouth.
"Be careful when you enter the door. Although the threshold of our store is made of wood, it is valuable. Do you know Wuliang wood? The last piece of Wuliang wood in the world is here." Fatty Luo felt someone entering the store, fanning himself with a palm leaf fan, and said without even looking.
Seeing that the visitor had not responded for a long time, he just opened his eyes slightly and looked at him. As a result, he was immediately shocked and stood up from the chair: "It turned out to be Master Ling. I am sorry for my disrespect..."
Fatty Luo had never seen Wang Ling before, but he had seen sheep. He knew that the rumored Master Ling would bring sheep to take care of himself today, so he guessed the identity of the young man in front of him from the sheep.
Because Master Diulei was crazy about calling Wang Ling, everyone in the chat group respected Wang Ling very much. Although Fatty Luo was not in the group, he was also a member of the organization. When people in the chat group came to him to take care of their magic tools, they also mentioned some of the glorious deeds of Master Ling to him.
Fortunately, Wang Ling did not have the habit of bragging about his friends to others casually, otherwise this would be the legendary "commercial mutual bragging".
Today was the first time that Fatty Luo and Wang Ling met.
From the way he dressed and looked, he was a very casual fat man, but Wang Ling did not find Fatty Luo annoying at first sight, but instead had a very friendly feeling.
Luo Pang searched for a long time in his pants, and finally found a slightly yellowed business card in another pair of pants hanging on the bamboo chair, and handed it to Wang Ling: "Master Ling, this is my business card. If you need anything in the future, call me in advance."
Wang Ling saw the introduction on the business card: Luo Pang, the manager of the hardware store, Luo Chuang.
After putting away the business card, Wang Ling began to look carefully at Luo Pang's store. The store was not big. There was a wooden counter at the door, and a recliner for Luo Pang to rest on the side. On both sides of the counter were two large wooden cabinets that looked very heavy.
There were hundreds of drawers on each wooden cabinet, which looked a bit like the structure of those old Chinese medicine stores specializing in treating ancestral psoriasis.
"The store is a bit messy, Master Ling, don't mind."
Fatty Luo saw Wang Ling's eyes and smiled: "The cabinet on the left is the magic weapon that has been maintained. Wait for the customer to pick it up. The cabinets on the right are still under maintenance and repair. There are numbers on the cabinets. I will repair a few pieces every day according to the numbers."
Wang Ling couldn't help shaking his eyebrows when he heard this. He didn't expect that although Fatty Luo looked big and strong, he was actually a very planned person.
"Duelei and I have known each other for a long time. We are all brothers. Before Master Ling came, Diulei called me specially, so there was no need to queue up..." Fatty Luo smiled while shaking a palm leaf fan. His eyes were small, only as big as green beans. When he smiled, they narrowed into a slit, and his eyeballs could not be seen.
"Will it take a long time?" Wang Ling asked directly without speaking.
"Not long, not long. Master Ling, please sit here for a while. I'll take the sheep to the inner room for repairs. It will be done soon." Fatty Luo looked at his watch and asked the sheep to go to the inner room. When they reached the inner room, Fatty Luo suddenly flipped his hand and opened a drawer in the counter: "There are some snacks I prepared in this drawer. If Master Ling doesn't mind, you can have them at will."
Snacks?
Wang Ling walked closer to take a look.
Wow... This whole drawer is full of instant noodles of various flavors!
This fat guy is smart!
