Bai Lina supported her chin and looked out the door with a bored look on her face, "When will Jin Yue be able to come back? It's been more than two months." She didn't know how many times she had called Jin Yue these days, but she couldn't get through.
The business has been booming since the store opened. Now almost the entire capital knows about this store, and some people even come from other provinces to buy their products. However, the daily supply is still not enough to sell.
"Miss me?" A pleasant voice with a smile sounded beside him.
Bai Lina was startled, and quickly turned around in surprise. Seeing that it was really Jin Yue, she said happily, "Jin Yue, you're finally back! Where have you been all these days? I missed you so much."
"I went home and brought you some local specialties." Su Jinyue handed the bag to Bai Lina.
"Jinyue, you are so nice!" Bai Lina happily took the bag from Su Jinyue's hand.
Su Jinyue sat down next to Bai Lina and asked, "How's business lately? Do you have enough goods?"
"Business is in short supply right now, and we've received a lot of orders for beauty pills this time." Bai Lina opened the drawer and took out three notebooks, "Look, these are all, most of them are orders from other provinces. They all came here specially to place orders after hearing about the effects of the beauty pills." If Jin Yue didn't come back, she would be worried to death.
Su Jinyue picked up the notebook and flipped through it casually, "Send them to pick up the goods early tomorrow morning." She can now refine thousands of beauty pills in an hour, and these orders can be completed in three or four hours at most.
"You can handle so many orders in one night?" Bai Lina asked in surprise. Each bottle of beauty pills contains seven pills, so with so many orders, the total would be at least five or six thousand pills.
"I have someone to help me." Su Jinyue said with a smile.
"So that's how it is," Bai Lina said suddenly. Every morning, someone delivers goods, including beauty pills, but there are too many people buying them and the supply is insufficient.
"Winter vacation is coming soon. Do you still want to go home?" Bai Lina asked after thinking about it.
"It depends," Su Jinyue said with a smile. She would definitely go back home for the New Year to reunite with her family, and as for her master, she wondered if he would be willing to spend the New Year in the Medical Valley.
At this time, two customers pushed the door and walked into the store, and a biting cold wind was also brought into the store.
Bai Lina shuddered, "It's so cold!" The weather in Beijing has dropped below zero recently, and she wishes she could hide in bed every day.
Turning to look at Su Jinyue, he saw that she was not even wearing a ski jacket, "Jinyue, aren't you cold?" She was wearing a ski jacket, cotton pants, and cotton shoes, but she was shivering from the cold. How could Jinyue not be cold when she was wearing such thin clothes?
"It's not cold." Su Jinyue smiled and shook her head. She was a cultivator, and such a temperature had no effect on her at all.
Bai Lina reached out and held Su Jinyue's hand, and found that her hand was warm. She looked incredulous and said, "You are wearing so little, how come your hands are still so warm?" This is too unscientific.
Su Jinyue smiled and took out a black stone from her pocket and handed it to Bai Lina, "You won't feel cold with this."
Bai Lina reached out to take it and said, "It's so warm. What kind of stone is this?" It was the first time she had seen a stone that could generate heat.
"This is Ink Fire Stone. It naturally generates heat, and its temperature remains around 57 degrees Celsius," Su Jinyue said. This stone was originally in the storage bag and was a refining material. Seeing Bai Lina cold, she thought of Ink Fire Stone. As for the marks left on the material, she had already erased them.
Holding the Ink Fire Stone, Bai Lina felt warm quickly. "What a magical stone! If we had a lot of these stones, we're sure they would sell well." The capital city now is like an ice cellar, and the hot water bottle will get cold after a short time.
Su Jinyue suddenly remembered the heat packs from her past life. In her past life, she was very afraid of the cold. She remembered that when she came to visit Yi Han during the last winter, he gave her a pack of heat packs that could be applied to her underwear to provide continuous warmth all day. She could give this a try, but she couldn't use the Ink Flint.
"This is a good idea. I'll think about it when I get back." Su Jinyue said.
Bai Lina nodded expectantly. "If there really were stones like this that could generate heat continuously, our business would definitely double."
"You little money-grubber." Su Jinyue shook her head and laughed. In her previous life, she hadn't realized that Lina loved making money so much.
Bai Lina laughed heartily. "Because I'm a worldly person, money gives me a sense of security." While her family had plenty of money, she preferred to earn her own. With her own money, she wouldn't be constantly controlled by her family. Perhaps she could even make her own decisions about marriage. She didn't want to be like her older sister and marry someone she didn't like.
Su Yanyue's figure inadvertently flashed through her mind. Bai Lina glanced at Su Jinyue and blushed involuntarily. Could it be that she had fallen in love with Jinyue's eldest brother? What nonsense was she imagining? Although her family background was good, it was still far behind the Su family. Besides, Su Yanyue had never even looked at her straight in the eye, so what was the point of her liking him?
"Are you thinking about your sweetheart?" Su Jinyue looked at Bai Lina's red face with a wicked smile.
"I... I don't have a lover." Bai Lina's face turned even redder. She would never let Jin Yue know that she had feelings for her elder brother.
"How about I introduce you to someone? What do you think of my eldest brother?" Su Jinyue winked at Bai Lina with a wicked smile. She would be her sister-in-law sooner or later anyway.
"I'll go get you a glass of water, do you want some?" Bai Lina was a little flustered. Could it be that Jin Yue had noticed something?
"Okay." Su Jinyue nodded in response. It seems that Lina has a good impression of her elder brother. This is a good start.
Su Jinyue and Bai Lina chatted for the whole morning, and after they had dinner together, Su Jinyue came to school. Now that she was back, she naturally had to use up her vacation.
Arriving at the principal's office, Su Jinyue raised her hand and knocked on the door. She had applied for leave through the principal, so it was natural for her to go to the principal to cancel her leave.
"Come in!" Chen Zhenghai's deep voice came from inside.
Su Jinyue pushed the door and walked into the office. She saw that besides Chen Zhenghai, there was also a blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigner in the office.
Seeing that it was Su Jinyue, Chen Zhenghai immediately stood up in surprise, "Su Jinyue, you are finally back." He had called her several times in these days, but the phone was always busy.
"Principal!" Su Jinyue walked up to Chen Zhenghai and greeted him politely. Chen Zhenghai was really nice to her. When he heard that she wanted to take a leave, he approved it without hesitation.
"Did you just come back?" Chen Zhenghai smiled and pointed to the sofa beside him, motioning Su Jinyue to sit down.
