"The most outrageous episode of Kongming."
Lin Li came in with the food and said to Bai Bufan, "The mushroom buns you bought went up by 50 cents. Now they're two yuan each. You bought two, and I paid an extra yuan. But since we're brothers, quibbling over a couple of yuan seems unnecessary, so for now, let's just say you owe me ten yuan."
Bai Bufan frowned and scratched his head, realizing things weren't that simple. Something felt off.
"I'm out of money, not paying."
"No money? I'll cover the bun inflation costs. Give me your phone." Lin Li smiled as he laid out breakfast on the table, making it easier for others to take their shares, and said concurrently.
"Where did this two hundred thousand come from?" Bai Bufan cooperated quickly.
"There's no two hundred thousand, just a thousand. It's from your Huabei loan."
"Wait, if it's Huabei, my limit is exactly two thousand!"
"That extra thousand is my service fee."
