Picking Up Fragments in PUBG

Chapter 306: Pig Brain Can’t Figure It Out

"Take this money. Even if we lose it, we should both take responsibility." Reba readily handed fifty yuan to Jiang Siming.

"You’re straightforward! Alright, wait here, I’ll be right back." Jiang Siming said and then left.

As soon as he left, Reba received a call from Luo Zhixiang, asking how her sales were going.

Reba told him about Jiang Siming’s plan to help her make money. Piggy immediately slapped his thigh in anger and said, "Reba, you’ve been tricked! He’s scamming you!"

"How could that be? It’s just fifty yuan." Reba didn’t believe it.

"I’m serious! This guy just scammed me out of a hundred! I asked the director and found out that he only got paid fifty for carrying goods for me, but he charged me 150! I haven’t even confronted him yet!" Piggy fumed.

He never expected that, as a veteran who had been on the show for four seasons, he would get scammed by a newcomer. What a disgrace!

"No way... would he really scam me too?" Reba started to waver.

Just as she was thinking about it, Jiang Siming returned.

"He’s back, he didn’t scam me. Piggy, I’m hanging up now."

Knowing that Jiang Siming hadn’t deceived her, Reba was happy and instinctively took his side. Afraid Piggy would confront him, she quickly ended the call.

Meanwhile, Piggy was still squatting at the fish stall, feeling utterly defeated.

"They’ve only known each other for half a day, and Reba is already treating him better than me?"

Piggy couldn’t figure it out. His pig brain just couldn’t process it...

On the other side, Jiang Siming returned with a pile of iPhone models.

"Why did you buy so many phone models?" Reba asked in confusion.

"You’ll see soon. Go put these models inside the clothes, the more expensive the clothing, the better." Jiang Siming instructed as he started placing them himself.

Although Reba still didn’t understand his plan, she followed his instructions.

What else could she do? She had already paid up and boarded this pirate ship, so she could only trust Jiang Siming for now. Explore more adventures at

The two of them placed more than twenty phone models into the pockets of over twenty pieces of clothing.

"Where did you buy these models? They look so real, even the weight feels like a real phone." Reba said.

"Right across from this mall. I saw them while I was making deliveries earlier."

Just as they finished placing the last phone, a customer walked in to browse.

"Boss, do you have summer jackets?" The customer asked Jiang Siming.

Jiang Siming had no idea, so he pointed at Reba and said, "Ask her."

The customer turned to Reba and asked, "Boss lady, do you have any jackets?"

Reba’s face immediately turned red. He called Jiang Siming "boss" and then called her "boss lady," wasn’t that implying they were husband and wife...

Before Reba could say anything, Jiang Siming was the first to object.

"Brother, what kind of eyesight do you have? Look at me—young and handsome. How could I have such an old wife? You’re insulting me! I’m just an employee at her store." Jiang Siming complained.

He couldn’t tolerate being called old!

Reba’s current disguise made her look like a businesswoman in her thirties or forties. If he was her husband, wouldn’t that mean he was also in his mid-thirties? Absolutely unacceptable!

Reba was so angry that her hair was practically standing on end.

"Jiang Siming!!!!"

"What instructions does the boss lady have for me?"

"Go pick out clothes for the customer!"

"Alright, boss lady." Jiang Siming responded without changing his expression and led the customer to browse clothes in the store.

The customer picked out a relatively thin jacket, which happened to have a phone model inside.

"It doesn’t seem to look that great," the customer commented, slightly dissatisfied with the style.

Jiang Siming immediately said, "Bro, this is the most fashionable design on the market right now, specially made for high-quality men like you. Your build is perfect for this outfit. Look at me—I’m only good enough for a tank top. Wearing clothes would just be a waste on me, really."

Hearing Jiang Siming’s nonsense, Reba couldn’t hold back her laughter. This guy was too much! This customer was at least 180 pounds and not even 1.7 meters tall.

And yet, he was being praised for having a great physique...

The customer, though flattered, still hesitated to buy it.

Jiang Siming then said, "Just try it on. If you don’t like it, you can take it off—no big deal. You never know if something suits you until you try it on, just like a wife—you have to, um, experience her first to know… *cough cough*—I mean, get along with her first to know."

That turn of phrase caught them all off guard. Reba blushed and glared at Jiang Siming.

Jiang Siming, however, was focused on making the sale.

Finally, under his persuasion, the customer decided to try on the jacket. As soon as he put it on, he noticed something was off—there was something in the pocket.

Jiang Siming pretended not to see and turned away to arrange other clothes.

The customer took the item out of the pocket and found it was a phone. He quickly glanced at Jiang Siming and Reba, seeing that neither of them had noticed.

After a brief internal struggle, he quietly put the phone back into the pocket and continued trying on the jacket as if nothing had happened.

After wearing it for a while, he finally nodded and said, "I’ll take this one. How much?"

Reba was just about to say the price when Jiang Siming leaned in and whispered, "How much is this jacket?"

"180."

Jiang Siming immediately told the customer, "230!"

"So expensive?"

"It’s not expensive, bro. If you don’t like it, you can pick another one, but the price really can’t go lower," Jiang Siming said with a troubled expression.

Hearing that he might have to change clothes, the customer quickly nodded, "Then I’ll take this one."

"This one, right? Let me get you a new one," Jiang Siming said, pretending to be considerate.

"No, no need! This one is great!" The customer quickly refused—no way, what if a new one didn’t have a phone inside?

He quickly paid and left, and Jiang Siming effortlessly made 230 yuan.

Reba laughed happily and said, "How can people be so greedy? Now I finally understand what these phone models are for. But… are you sure this is okay? Isn’t this kind of tricking the customer?"

"First, we didn’t trick him—it was his own greed. If he had just returned the phone, there wouldn’t have been any issue, right? Second, we charged a little extra for the jacket because of the phone model, which is also a small lesson for him. It’s actually good for him."

Jiang Siming then turned to the production team with a smile and added, "Third, I trust that if our method wasn’t appropriate, the show’s crew would cover for us, so don’t worry."

There was absolutely no flaw in his reasoning. The production team, afraid of damaging the clothing store’s reputation, made sure to refund customers afterward whenever someone "took the bait."

But they were truly in awe of Jiang Siming’s sharp mind—how was this guy so familiar with variety show tactics?

They couldn’t figure it out. Their brains just couldn’t keep up.
