Chapter 284 A Liar with No Bottom Line!

10:08 am.

The top of the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area is already crowded with tourists taking pictures with their mobile phones or cameras.

"It's so beautiful, so incredible..."

"It's snowing again! I'm so lucky. I didn't catch it yesterday, but I caught it today!"

"This is my first time standing in the warm sunshine and admiring the snow."

"Have you noticed, it's not snowing anywhere else, it's only snowing on this hillside!"

"It's true! It's amazing!"

The tourists were enjoying the beautiful scenery and talking about it. Soon someone noticed the uniqueness of the snow scene.

Among them, there are also some tourists who like to share their lives with others. They have shared the snow scene in their circle of friends by taking photos or posted it in the form of short videos on the Kuaishou short video platform.

Soon, those short videos about the snow scenes in the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area became popular again on the Kuaiduo platform.

"Are you sure this is Hebei Province? The temperature has not dropped below 10 degrees Celsius in any part of the province. How can it be snowing?"

"Is this video a lie? It doesn't even snow in Northeast China, but it starts to snow in Northern Hebei?"

"Isn't it artificial snowfall created by the scenic spot to attract tourists?"

"Oh my god, artificial snowfall! Even when the air humidity exceeds 90%, snow cannot occur until the temperature reaches minus 3 degrees Celsius. With the current temperature in northern Hebei Province, there is absolutely no snowfall."

"Didn't this already happen?"

"Forehead……"

There are many praises below the snow scene video, and there are also many doubtful voices. All kinds of voices come together to put the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area on the hot search again.

Even some self-proclaimed professionals are at a loss when faced with the abnormal weather in the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area.

…………

At the same time, the snow scene in the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area is once again popular.

Shuisheng had prepared all the goods Luo Yanning wanted, including food and drink, and filled the compartment of a small flatbed truck to the brim.

When paying the bill, Shuisheng said cheerfully: "The total is 5,439. I will give you 5,000, Mr. Luo. I will also donate the remaining 439 yuan to the nursing home in our village."

"Okay, then let me thank Boss Shui for Grandma Li and the others first." Luo Yanning agreed with a smile and transferred 5,000 yuan to Shui Sheng on the spot.

The 439 yuan was Shui Sheng's kindness to the elderly people in the nursing home. Although Luo Yanning was not short of the money, he did not reject Shui Sheng's kindness.

No matter how great a person's power is, it is ultimately limited.

The purpose of Luo Yanning's move is to let more people join in caring for the helpless elderly people in rural areas.

Although Grandma Li and the others are all out-and-out farmers, they don’t have any great skills. They guard their one-third of an acre of land all their lives, facing the loess and turning their backs to the sky.

But their generation's contribution to the country is no less than that of the old people in the city who enjoy high pensions and enjoy life in peace.

During the country's most difficult period, they tightened their belts and handed over public food for decades.

Now that they are old and unable to work, they need someone to take care of them. The Heilongshan Nursing Home came into being and took on this responsibility.

After the death of Mr. Luo Yuanshan, Luo Yanning inherited his legacy and continued to take care of the elderly in the nursing home.

Perhaps it was the sincerity of the two men that moved God, so Luo Yanning was able to get the bug-level plug-in [Super Scenic Area System] by chance.

If Luo Yanning did not obey the old man's last words and turned a blind eye to the elderly people in the nursing home after taking over the scenic spot, the elderly people in the nursing home would not have contributed money to advertise for him.

Grandma Li would not give the stone she regarded as a treasure to Luo Yanning and let him sell it to refuel the car, so there would be no [Super Scenic Area System].

There will never be a time when the Heilongshan Scenic Area is as beautiful as it is now.

After loading the car and paying the money, Luo Yanning and Shuisheng drove to Heilongshan Nursing Home one after another.

Compared with the popular scenic spots, the Heilongshan Nursing Home seems a bit deserted.

The youngest of the elderly people living in the nursing home, Grandma Li, is 67 years old this year, nearly 70 years old.

As people get older, they become somewhat taciturn and less active.

Especially the childless elderly people living in nursing homes.

They live cautiously every day, for fear of accidentally bumping into something and causing trouble to others.

Luo Yanning parked the car at the entrance of the nursing home, opened the door and got out of the car. Shui Xiangdong and An Youqing also got out of the car, and each of them ordered a bucket of mountain spring water.

The three of them raised their legs and came to the gate. Luo Yanning reached out and knocked on the black iron door of the nursing home: "Grandma Li, open the door. We are here to see you."

After knocking on the door, nearly half a minute passed before the black iron opened it with a creak. The person who opened the door was a thin, somewhat rickety old man.

"Good morning, Fourth Grandpa, we are here to see you."

After Luo Yanning saw the old man, she smiled and said hello.

Luo Yanning didn't know what the fourth grandfather's name was, and he never asked. He had been called that since he was a child.

Three years ago, Fourth Grandpa was still working under Mr. Luo in the scenic spot.

In the past two years, the fourth grandfather could no longer work, and his memory began to decline. He often forgot the work tasks that Mr. Luo asked him to do, so he arranged for him to live in a nursing home.

When Mr. Luo died and the funeral was held, the fourth grandfather was so sad that he did not eat or drink for several days, and almost left with Mr. Luo.

Among the elderly people in the nursing home, apart from Grandma Li, Luo Yanning has the best relationship with Grandpa Fourth.

After seeing the pickup truck parked outside the door, the fourth grandfather said with an annoyed look: "Luo boy, why are you here again! You haven't finished eating the pile of food you sent last time! Can't you save some money and get married quickly? How old are you and still not married? When your grandfather was your age, your father was already a soy sauce worker."

Luo Xuning laughed awkwardly: "Fourth grandfather, you don't welcome me..."

"You come empty-handed, we welcome you at any time. If you bring such things every time, don't come in the future. Come in quickly."

Although the fourth grandfather complained, even a blind man could see that the moment he saw Luo Xuning, his face smiled a little more.

"Come in quickly, Xiangdong, Youqing, you two go change the water first."

Luo Xuning greeted Shui Xiangdong and An Youqing, and took the lead to follow the old man into the door.

Fourth Grandpa said again: "Little Luo, I'm not kidding you. Next time I open the door, I'll look through the crack. If I see you bringing so many things again, I'll definitely not open the door for you."

Luo Xuning smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I won't do that next time. I bought everything this time. You and Grandma Li took the trouble to help solve the problem. By the way, why don't you see Grandma Li?"

Fourth Grandpa said: "They are busy in the chess and card room."

Luo Xuning smiled and said: "It's good to play poker and mahjong when you have nothing to do. It's lively. Think for a moment. "

Fourth Grandpa said: "Why play poker and mahjong? A bunch of money-loving old ladies are busy making money there."

"Busy making money?" Luo Xuning frowned slightly, "Why didn't Grandma Li tell me that they were short of money? Why did they go out to make money?"

Fourth Grandpa said: "Don't worry, Luo boy, the work done by Xiao Li and others is not tiring. They just do handicrafts in the yard. Someone will come to collect them after they are done."

"Doing handicrafts?" Luo Xuning felt that this was not very reliable as soon as he heard it.

Generally speaking, nine out of ten people who distribute handicrafts on the Internet are big liars who cheat you out of your money under the guise of making money for you.

Most of the information about outsourcing processing of handicrafts is fake. What they say is very tempting. As long as you have hands, you can make money.

Most of the things made are also very simple, such as making Chinese knots, blessing characters, Santa Claus, etc.

The custom-made party provides raw materials for free, teaches you the craftsmanship for free, and pays a very tempting processing fee, which looks very tempting.

Once someone is interested and contacts them, they will ask for a certain amount of deposit in the form of a raw material deposit.

It is the first cooperation, and the two parties have not yet established a foundation of trust. It seems that paying a raw material deposit is completely reasonable.

If the deposit is paid, the purpose of the scammers to cheat money is achieved.

The scammers are targeting this deposit.

The value of raw materials is often said by scammers to be very valuable and expensive, but in fact it is not worth a penny.

Basically, all of them are wholesaled from pdd or al

, and a large bag of scraps can be bought for dozens of yuan.

After the handicraft workers have worked hard to process those jobs, the scammers will tell the handicraft workers that the things you made are not up to standard.

No matter how strictly the handicraft workers follow the instructions and training content, they are all unqualified.

The materials are wasted, and the deposit can't be returned.

Some companies specialize in "breach of contract".

Promise the victim an attractive reward, and then give the victim a task that is impossible to complete.

Then say that the victim has breached the contract and demand compensation.

The victim knew he was in the wrong and had to pay out of his own pocket.

These scammers are targeting left-behind women in rural areas who have no jobs and no income, but want to make money by their own ability, or the elderly who want to make pocket money to reduce the burden on their children.

"That bunch of hateful scammers actually cheated Grandma Li and others."

After listening to the narration of the fourth grandfather, Luo Shuning felt that this matter was unreliable.

Following the fourth grandfather into the chess and card room, as expected, a group of old ladies were busy crocheting Chinese knots.

"Xiao Luo is here!"

"Xiao Luo, come in and sit down and drink some water."

When Grandma Li and the other old ladies saw Luo Shuning at the door, they quickly put down the handicrafts they were doing and stood up to welcome him.

"Grandma Li, what are you doing?"

After Luo Shuning sat down after entering the door, he picked up a finished product and asked casually.

It can be seen that the grandmothers have made it carefully. The Chinese knot is very beautiful. Luo Xuning can't see any flaws.

Grandma Li smiled and said: "We old people have nothing to do every day, so we thought about finding a job that is not so tiring and can be done at home.

It happened that when I went to Yangcun to attend the big market last week, I met an old acquaintance from Yangcun. She was making this thing. It is said that she can earn more than 1,000 yuan a month.

So we also tried it. We can't make a lot of money, but it's okay to earn some pocket money."

Luo Xuning took the palm-sized Chinese knot and looked at it over and over again, and asked casually: "How much does it cost to make such a Chinese knot?"

Grandma Li said excitedly: "Two yuan for a good one. If you are quick, you can make 20 to 30 in a day and earn 50 to 60 yuan."

The income of 50 to 60 yuan a day is still very tempting for the elderly in the nursing home.

Some women in their 50s and 60s in the village work in the landscaping company, working in the sun and rain, and only earn 50 or 60 yuan a day.

"Is that so? That's not bad..." Luo Xuning felt even more unreliable when he heard what Grandma Li said, and asked tentatively, "Grandma Li, how much have you done? Has the company that assigned the work settled the bill?"

Grandma Li pointed to a large cardboard box in the corner of the room and said happily, "We just finished the first batch of 500. Someone from the company will come to take the things away today. After these are sent to the company for quality inspection, the next time they send the materials, they will take our labor costs together."

Another grandma Grandma smiled and said, "We made every Chinese knot carefully and attentively, and checked it several times after we finished it. There must be no problem."

"Xiao Luo, when we make money from handicrafts, you don't have to send us things every month. We can support ourselves. When we can't even do handicrafts anymore, we will trouble you again."

According to the manual fee of 2 yuan per knot, 500 Chinese knots are 1,000 yuan. For Luo Xuning, this amount of money is nothing, but for several elderly people, it is a considerable income.

Earning 1,000 yuan a week, it is 4,000 yuan a month, which is enough for the daily expenses of several elderly people in the nursing home.

Looking at the excited and happy expressions on the faces of several elderly people, Luo Xuning couldn't bear to tell them the truth.

Shui Xiangdong and An Youqing changed the water in the water dispenser of the nursing home and then went to the chess and card room to meet Luo Xuning.

After hearing the conversation between Grandma Li and others, Shui Xiangdong wanted to say something several times, but was stopped by Luo Xuning's eyes.

After chatting with a few old people in the chess and card room for a while, Luo Shuning called Shui Xiangdong out alone.

"What's wrong, Xiangdong, do you have something to say?"

Luo Shuning took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Shui Xiangdong. In fact, he had almost guessed what Shui Xiangdong was going to say to him.

"Mr. Luo! The grandmas have been deceived!" Shui Xiangdong took the cigarette from Luo Shuning and said anxiously, "My classmate's mother is from Yangcun next door. She makes the same things as Grandma Li and her friends, all Chinese knots. Not only did she not make a penny, but she also paid a deposit of more than 900 yuan. He complained to me about this when I was drinking with him two days ago. The company that assigned the work found all kinds of faults and asked you to rework. No matter how skillful a person is, it is impossible to make a product that meets their requirements."

"Sure enough..." Luo Shuning couldn't help shaking his head and smiling after listening to Shui Xiangdong's words. He was really guessed by him.

The women and elderly people in the village have been staying in the village for many years. They lack social experience and find it difficult to see through the scam. In most cases, they will just think they are unlucky.

Even if someone realizes that they have been cheated afterwards, because the amount of money cheated is not large, most of them will choose to think they are unlucky and think of it as a lesson learned.

Therefore, in recent years, many fraudulent companies have set their sights on the rural sinking market and made a lot of money against their conscience.

Shui Xiangdong said with concern: "What should we do, Mr. Luo? Should we call the police for Grandma Li and the others?"

"Not for the time being, I will find someone to handle this matter." Luo Xuning thought of his sworn brother Gu Hongfei who had just sworn brotherhood with him last night.

Those scammers are really abominable. They even cheated the money of the elderly in the nursing home. They must be taught a profound lesson.
