Chapter 992: Chapter 413: Hometown Series Launches Bump Soup—Dundun’s Labor Fee!

Once she said that, the internet users who had been pretending to be mysterious quickly confessed that today’s new dish was Bump Soup.

Although it was just Bump Soup, the taste was undeniably good.

Almost every customer who ordered Bump Soup couldn’t stop praising this dish.

Homemade delicacies are just like this, seemingly ordinary but comforting, making you feel relaxed all over after eating, unlike those upscale dishes that are good in every way except they don’t sit well with the stomach.

"Come on, darling, say goodbye to your godmother."

Held by Shen Baobao, Dundun waved his paw at Shu Yun, then turned his head, curiously looking outside.

After spending two days at the car show, the little guy was even more curious about the outside world.

"You like being outside? Then when we’re not busy, how about Dad takes us fishing again? Mommy is waiting for you to create a new wild fishing record."

Ever since she caught an eight-pound and eight-ounce carp, Shen Jiayue became a somewhat famous female angler in the circle, and people often sought her advice on fishing.

What to do when carp doesn’t bite in autumn and winter.

How to match the fishing line and fish hook.

And the preparation of bait and choice of winter nest material, etc.

Shen Baobao didn’t understand any of this, so she just relied on her instincts to brush people off, telling them that winter fishing requires patience, and often when you’re most desperate, surprises will appear.

At first, she thought talking about these mystical things would expose her.

But unexpectedly, these anglers listened and immediately looked enlightened, unanimously agreeing with her, leaving this newly crowned fishing grandma bewildered.

It felt like fishing turned into a feudal superstition activity.

The next day, she and Chen Yan spent another day with Dundun at the car show site.

When it ended, the sales figures from the car show were tabulated, with all luxury cars sold and reserved surpassing two hundred million yuan.

According to the contract, after deducting some miscellaneous expenses, Dundun received more than two million yuan in cash rewards.

This amount made Shen Baobao smile broadly, kissing Dundun’s forehead several times, praising him as the most capable child in the family.

While Chen Yan once again pounded her chest with regret for asking too little during the price negotiations.

A loss of hundreds of thousands for nothing.

"Alright, Yan Bao, don’t be too greedy. Mainly, we’re here to broaden Dundun’s horizons, not to make money. Let’s go, let’s go, dinner’s ready at the shop, let’s head back and eat."

Chen Yan helplessly rubbed Dundun’s head:

"Sorry, darling, Aunt was careless this time. Next time there’s a similar event, I’ll definitely help you get the maximum reward."

Dundun affectionately snuggled against Aunt’s body, seemingly comforting her.

As the three of them were about to drive back, the person in charge of the Maserate showroom hurriedly approached:

"Miss Shen, you and Mr. Lin can test drive the car this weekend, and we can sign the agreement altogether, how does that sound?"

"Sure, sure, no problem... By the way, do you know any reliable companies that do trade-ins for old cars with new ones?"

Now that Lin Xu had a new car, Shen Baobao planned to trade in the X5 for another car to give to Lin Hongqi.

Originally, she wanted to use her pocket money to help Xu Bao switch cars, but since she was getting the Maserate promotion, she didn’t need to buy it herself. Seeing that her father-in-law was still driving a several-years-old second-hand Toyota Prado, Shen Baobao planned to buy her father-in-law a car.

The last time she traded her Ferrari for a Continental, it went smoothly, but that company offered a harsh discount, so this time she wanted a different company.

As soon as he heard about the trade-in, Li Shiqiang, who had just walked into the office, smiled and said:

"Miss Shen might not know, but our company specializes in the trade-in business. Are you planning to trade in Mr. Lin’s X5?" 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

"Yes, yes, I want to swap it for a Range Rover or Bentayga, are the procedures troublesome?"

Li Shiqiang didn’t directly agree, but instead asked:

"Who is Miss Shen planning for to drive it? Different people suit different cars."

"My father-in-law, who runs a scenic area back home in Yinzhou."

"Is it the Longqi Mountain scenic area? Before inviting you to the car show, I did my homework... Since it’s Mr. Lin’s father driving it at the scenic area back home, I suggest trading for a Range Rover, which has both brand and face. Bentayga is relatively niche and doesn’t quite fit the rural style."

Li Shiqiang spoke very tactfully, but in fact, in many places, a Range Rover gives people the impression of having a strong background and being bossy. Some professional crash scammers avoid Range Rovers because they fear the driver will run them over.

Shen Baobao had no research on cars, so hearing this, she nodded:

"Sure, sure, then let’s trade it when the new car arrives."

Not buying a new car for Xu Bao, but giving the father-in-law a new one, and happen to send her heavily modified X1 for her mother-in-law, just as Yinzhou’s scenic area is suitable for a small car like the X1 to navigate around.

"No wonder Uncle Lin and Aunt Chen treat you so well, you’re such a reliable daughter-in-law."

Chen Yan couldn’t help praising her cousin, wishing Professor Ren and Professor Tian weren’t only interested in teaching and not these material things, or they’d definitely send two cars.

My father-in-law and mother-in-law absolutely cannot be worse than some people’s parents-in-law!

Shen Baobao didn’t expect Chen Yan was competing with herself even in being a daughter-in-law. She hugged Dundun, laughed, and said:

"Let’s go, let’s go, head home for dinner. Tomorrow, Dad is attending the apprenticeship ceremony of Elder Master Guo. I wonder what good food and drinks will be arranged."

Chen Yan glanced at her:

"You’re not thinking of crashing the party, are you? I heard, traditionally, this type of solemn event doesn’t allow women to attend."

"Yan Bao, what era are you living in, still being so old-fashioned... Wasn’t planning on going, but since you mentioned it, not only am I going, I’m taking Dundun with me, let’s see who dares to stop us!"

Dundun in her arms immediately rubbed his head against Shen Baobao’s neck upon hearing this.

"Wow, son, you really want to go? Then let’s go, whoever tries to stop us, let Uncle Xie scold them!"
