The waiter, worried that the group might not be literate, read the menu aloud and also quoted the prices.

Lu Chuan ordered four dishes according to the group's tastes, along with four bowls of rice and a soup.

After ordering, Lu Chuan asked the waiter, "I wonder if your manager is here? We brought some wild game, could you please ask your manager if we need any?"

Upon hearing this, the waiter's eyes lit up. You see, wild game is a rare treat these days. There are hardly any hunters around the county town, so it's usually very difficult for customers to get their hands on some wild game.

The waiter's smile widened. "Please wait a moment, sir. I'll go and fetch our manager right away."

After the waiter finished speaking, he led the four people to a seat on the side and asked them to sit and wait.

After arranging everything, the waiter quickly ran to the backyard to find the shopkeeper, who was worried about the ingredients. If he could handle the matter, the shopkeeper would surely reward him, and he would get some money as a bonus.

And just as Xiao Er had thought, as soon as Manager Hong heard that someone had come to buy game, he immediately came out from the backyard.

Upon seeing the group, Manager Hong cupped his hands in greeting and said, "I am the manager of this restaurant. My surname is Hong, you can call me Manager Hong. I wonder if these gentlemen have brought any game? May I see where the game is?"

Although this is a question, it is a very affirmative one.

Lu Chuan didn't stand on ceremony and returned the greeting, saying, "My name is Lu Chuan, and I am the prey we brought. The prey is currently on the cart outside. Shopkeeper, please come with me."

Seeing this, Xu Han didn't get up. Lu Chuan could handle this little thing himself, so she should just stay here and eat. As for the Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao, they naturally wouldn't get involved either, and didn't move an inch the whole time.

Lu Chuan led Manager Hong to the cart, then lifted the tarpaulin covering it, revealing white pork and wild roe deer.

Manager Hong was surprised for a moment, but then regained his composure. "So many prey, Brother Lu is truly a master."

Lu Chuan also made a polite remark, saying, "I don't have such good skills myself. If it weren't for my family's help, I wouldn't have been able to hunt so many prey."

Manager Hong thought about the people he had just seen behind Lu Chuan, and figured they must be the family he had mentioned. He then became more serious, thinking to himself that this family was no ordinary family.

Especially the man in the Taoist robe, who looked quite skilled, hunting two wild boars and so many other prey at this time of year didn't seem like a difficult task. However, he still said without showing any sign of it, "Brother Lu, you are too modest. To tell you the truth, our restaurant is also short of wild game as the year draws to a close. Unfortunately, our restaurant is too small, and we can't possibly serve so much of your game all at once."

"That's alright, Manager Hong, just take as much as you need, and I'll sell the rest at the market."

"Haha, then I won't be polite." Then he called for the waiter, asking the chef from the backyard to come and select the wild game.

Manager Hong turned to Lu Chuan and continued, "The pork at the market is 17 wen per catty now, but this is wild boar meat. I'll give it to you for 22 wen per catty. Is this price acceptable?"

Lu Chuan considered it in his mind. Due to the natural disaster, pork prices had indeed risen significantly, and the price of wild boar meat was quite high. So he nodded in agreement.

A short while later, a fat, middle-aged man with big ears came out from the backyard, wearing an apron, clearly cooking in the backyard.

Manager Hong introduced, "This is our restaurant's head chef."

The two nodded to each other as a greeting.

After selecting the meat, Lu Chuan followed them to the backyard to weigh it. This time, they sold three taels for 260 coins.

After taking the money, Lu Chuan rushed back to the dining table. Just then, the food was delivered. Lu Chuan handed the money to Xu Han to put away, and then picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

While eating, he told the others about what had just happened: "This time, wild boar meat sold for 25 coins per pound, roe deer meat for 20 coins, and dried mushrooms for 15 coins per pound. The prices of these things are a bit higher than before. We can sell them at the market later at the same prices."

Xu Han nodded. "This price is indeed not high. After all, everything is in short supply here right now, and prices will be higher than before in the short term."

"There's still quite a bit left. Shall we go ask at other restaurants later?"

Xu Han thought for a moment and declined, "We haven't been to other restaurants before, so let's not go there for now. The market is bustling right now, so let's try selling there first. If it doesn't work out, we can ask at the restaurants."

"That's fine, let's go to the market first. Let's eat quickly, or there won't be anyone left."

Upon hearing this, the group quickly began to eat. After finishing their meal, they headed towards the market. Once there, they paid five coins to the constable for their stall and then set up their stall in a suitable location.

Because they arrived a bit late, Lu Chuan found a spot that wasn't exactly a great one, with very few people around.

Xu Han helped Lu Chuan arrange the items. The dried mushrooms and dried bamboo shoots were put into burlap sacks, and all that was needed was to leave the openings open so that customers could see them.

As for wild boar meat and other game, the oilcloth that had just covered the pork was laid back on the ground, and then the pork was placed on top of it.

Lu Chuan sharpened his knife while waiting for customers to come in.

Xu Han observed for a while and saw that the passersby were not coming this way. She thought to herself that this would not work. If this continued, she would definitely not be able to sell any of the goods.

So he shouted loudly, "Wild boar meat for sale! Fresh wild boar meat! Fresh game! We also have delicious dried mushrooms and dried bamboo shoots. Don't miss it! Come and take a look! There's always something you want, cheap and affordable!"

The sudden sound startled everyone. The Taoist priest patted his chest and said, "You brat, you didn't even say anything when you shouted. You scared me to death."

Upon hearing this, Xu Han laughed even more heartily, ignoring the Taoist priest and continuing to shout loudly.

Seeing Xu Han shouting so loudly, Lu Chuan also started to imitate her.

Seeing that her parents had called out, Mu'er started calling out as well.

It has to be said that the effect was quite good. The group had only called out twice when a woman carrying a basket walked over.

"They really are selling wild game. I haven't eaten wild game in a long time. How much is this wild boar meat?"

Xu Han could tell from the woman in front of her that she was someone who was willing to spend money. She was plump and had a particularly cheerful smile, which made her feel very comfortable.
