Chen Xiaomi was very curious about the little house inside Lu Lin's body, but couldn't think of what to ask. Suddenly, Chen Xiaomi had a flash of inspiration.

"Wheat says there's sugar water, is there any more sugar water?"

Lu Lin took out a bottle of Nutritional Express, and Chen Xiaomi eagerly took it and drank it.

Chen Xiaomi gulped down half a bottle of Nutritional Express, thinking to herself: It really tastes good! It's all milk flavor, but not fishy at all. When Chen Xiaomi came out, she had drunk quite a bit of water, and couldn't drink any more than half of it.

"If you can't finish it, give it to me," Lu Lin said.

Chen Xiaomi withdrew her hand, looking somewhat reluctant, with a protective expression on her face.

Lu Lin smiled and said, "I'll bring it out for you next time you want to drink it, but this stuff can't be exposed to light, or the villagers will find it strange."

Chen Xiaomi thought it made sense and returned the half-empty bottle of beverage to Lu Lin.

Lu Lin put the Nutritional Express into the convenience store.

Chen Xiaomi suddenly thought of something and said, "The house inside your body can store things?"

Lu Lin nodded and said, "Yes!"

Chen Xiaomi tilted her head and said, "So, I didn't need to carry such a heavy wild boar last time. I could have just put it in the small house and taken it out later, right?"

Lu Lin: "..." That seems to be true. "It would look very strange if people saw this."

Chen Xiaomi glared at Lu Lin, probably knowing why Lu Lin hadn't told him.

If he possessed something so precious, he wouldn't casually tell others about it.

"As long as you don't have any ulterior motives, I won't tell anyone," Chen Xiaomi said.

Lu Lin smiled and said, "Okay!"

Chen Xiaomi looked at Lu Lin and said, "What kind of things are in your little house? There will be a market on the street in a few days, do you have anything to sell?"

"There's not much food, just some groceries. We should be able to get through this without any problem," Lu Lin said.

Upon hearing Lu Lin's words, Chen Xiaomi felt a surge of joy. Grain that could last through the winter must be worth at least five or six taels.

Chen Xiaomi and Lu Lin discussed it and decided to keep it from Chen Xiaocai for the time being. Chen Xiaomi felt that Chen Xiaocai was too young and was afraid that he might accidentally let it slip.

Chen Xiaomi was not a conservative person at heart. When she learned about the existence of the convenience store, she was not afraid, but rather very interested.

Do you have any common items that you can sell?

Chen Xiaomi thought of the beads that Lu Lin had sold before, but it was best not to sell such rare items again and again; more ordinary items would be better.

"The wine should be able to be sold, but it's not easy to sell it directly," Lu Lin said.

Chen Xiaomi asked with some curiosity, "Alcohol? Does the shop still have alcohol?"

Lu Lin nodded and said, "Yes!"

Wine is a great thing! You can give a case of wine when visiting relatives and friends, and compared to regular milk or other similar items, wine has a relatively long shelf life. The cost of wine is also low; a large portion of the profits at Lu Lin's convenience store comes from wine.

Therefore, the convenience store was truly not short of alcohol. Lu Lin had stocked up on various brands of beer, and the store was piled up with more than a hundred cases of beer.

However, the packaging of that wine is problematic, and it would definitely be inappropriate to sell it directly.

"Let me see it," Chen Xiaomi said, full of curiosity.

Brewing wine requires a lot of grain, and the price of wine is still very high. A jar of top-quality wine costs about one tael of silver, a jar of medium-quality wine costs about two hundred copper coins, and a jar of low-quality wine costs about thirty copper coins. The price difference between different grades of wine is very large.

Lu Lin took out a jar of wine, and Chen Xiaomi took the wine and tasted it.

Lu Lin looked at Chen Xiaomi and asked, "How does it taste?"

Chen Xiaomi smacked her lips and said, "It tastes pretty good."

Chen Xiaomi had only drunk some ordinary rice wine and couldn't really distinguish between good and bad.

"If we can sell some of the wine, we can buy a mule," Lu Lin said.

Chen Xiaomi asked unhappily, "Why buy a mule?"

Without hesitation, Lu Lin replied, "If we buy mules, we can use them for transportation!"

Chen Xiaomi said unhappily, "Why waste that money? We can just walk there."

Lu Lin said dismissively, "You'll always have to take the game you hunt to the city anyway. Having a mule would make things easier. Besides, if you had a mule cart, you could occasionally take some vegetables and wheat with you to town to see what it's like!"

Chen Xiaomi rolled her eyes at Lu Lin. This Lu Lin hadn't even made any money yet, and he was already having all sorts of wild fantasies. But…

Having a mule would probably make things a bit easier.

Chen Xiaomi shook her head. They had bought a mule and they still had to feed it from time to time. Their family was not like those families who owned land and didn't need to let the mule work in the fields.

Buying a mule is too extravagant. Besides, one shouldn't flaunt their wealth. In his current situation, buying a mule would attract too much attention. Who knows how envious those guys will be of them if they buy such a thing? But being envied is a good thing. It's better than the villagers gossiping behind his back about how miserable he is after leaving the Chen family!

However, as he thought about it, Chen Xiaomi couldn't help but be tempted again. He couldn't borrow a car and had to walk to town, which made him a laughing stock. Before, it started raining halfway there, and a car from the village happened to pass by. Several villagers looked at him from inside the car, some with sympathy and others with schadenfreude.

Although no one said it to his face, Chen Xiaomi knew that many people in the village said he was utterly heartless and would be eaten by the creatures in the mountains sooner or later.

"Were you a young master before?" Chen Xiaomi asked.

Lu Lin nodded and said, "I guess so."

In his past life, he was a poor commoner. He earned enough to eat and dress well with the money he made from a small shop, but buying a house in a big city was out of the question; he could only wait for the property to be demolished and redeveloped. But to be honest, although he was just a commoner in his past life, he lived a much more comfortable life than the rich young masters here.

"Young Master, you're cooking?" Chen Xiaomi asked, somewhat skeptical.

Lu Lin smiled and said, "You wouldn't understand, this is just my hobby."

Chen Xiaomi pouted and said, "This wine isn't suitable to take out." Chen Xiaomi had never seen an aluminum can before and found it quite amazing. "This is made of iron, right?"

Lu Lin nodded and said, "Yes."

"They actually used such a beautiful jar to store wine. It's unusable after one use," Chen Xiaomi said.

Lu Lin nodded and said, "Yeah! It's a bit of a waste." Lu Lin didn't have the heart to provoke Chen Xiaomi by saying that the tin can was worthless in the world he came from.
