"I was feeling lethargic in the spring a while ago, with no energy and no interest in anything. The doctor said I had qi deficiency and told me to take more tonics. But instead of replenishing my qi, I developed internal heat and got a lot of small bumps on my face."

He touched his face. "They're really all gone. I hadn't noticed before. Come to think of it, it really started when I started eating the Yun family's food. I'll have to call the doctor to check me out when I get back."

"You know what, my father has a problem with liver yang hyperactivity, and he gets headaches from time to time. We've never bought vegetables from Yun's family, but my father loves to eat cucumber fried noodles made by Lao Liu, and he hasn't complained of headaches lately."

Some guests, overhearing them discussing this topic, couldn't help but chime in.

The waiter chuckled, “Maybe it’s that fried noodle stall outside. They do buy their vegetables from the Yun family. Last time, their family was bullied by the Tiger Head Gang, and it was the Yun family who stepped in. Otherwise, the whole family of four would probably be dead.”

"Yes, yes, my father only eats this fried noodles every day, and it really is delicious."

"I suggest you just buy groceries and eat there. I guarantee you won't be able to finish any other dishes after just one meal."

The people in the tavern started chatting away, one after another, even though they were separated by distance.

They talked about all the dishes at Yunjian Restaurant, and there were no bad reviews, only praise.

The retired emperor was somewhat curious, "The food at Yunjian Restaurant is so good, how come not many people know about it yet?"

Some regular customers of Yunjian Restaurant exchanged glances and familiar looks, and couldn't help but chuckle.

Yu Shaolian suddenly touched his nose and said, "I think I know the reason."

Everyone looked at him again.

Yu Shaolian shrugged. "The fruits and vegetables at Yunjian Vegetable Shop are already hard to buy, so I suppose no one wants to spread the word to avoid more competition."

One of the men immediately burst into laughter.

“That’s right. If we buy it ourselves, we have to queue up every day. If more people come, even if we queue all day, we still won’t have enough vegetables to sell.”

Qiu Ling turned her head, gently waving her jade fan, and looked at Yu Shaolian with a half-smile.

He clearly remembered that he was busy trying to cover up the fruits and vegetables at the time, which is true.

Indeed, such good things are only found in shops on small, quiet streets.

Ordinary people can't buy too much at once.

In a prime location, any wealthy family could easily book the entire place every day, and they would prefer as few people as possible to rob them, so they wouldn't bother to let anyone know.

Others have built a good reputation and attracted more customers because their products are so good.

The opposite is true of Yunjian Vegetable Shop.

Because of its excellent reputation, customers have become very discreet.

However, gold can never be hidden from the light.

You can tell by the fact that more and more people are discovering this.

"Yes, it's fortunate that the cloud store has purchase limits, otherwise we wouldn't be able to compete with those rich people."

"Who says otherwise? Look at them, they make several servants come early every day to queue up in order to buy more vegetables. They seem quite willing to do it. So what if they have money? They still have to obediently queue up like us."

"That's why cloud-based stores are so amazing."

"It's because the cloud shop owners are broad-minded and think of us. Otherwise, they would have just sold to those rich people, and we wouldn't have had a chance."

"Yes, yes, even if it's just for the food, we should support them."

As they were talking, two people hurriedly paid their bill and quickly left the tavern.

If a companion asks, just say you're going to queue up.

Among them was the one who previously mentioned that his father loved cucumber fried noodles.

They were clearly all moved.

The retired emperor stroked his chin, becoming increasingly interested in Yun Zhiyi.

Just then, a slight commotion was heard outside.

The people in line all craned their necks to look ahead, clearly indicating that something was going on up there.

Many people curiously went out of the store to take a look, but couldn't see anything.

The Emperor Emeritus gave a signal with his eyes, and a guard at the next table immediately got up and walked out.

The tavern waiter was quick-witted and hurriedly said, "Please wait a moment, sirs. I'll go out and find out what's going on."

As he spoke, he quickly ran out.

However, soon everyone stopped hearing any more noise, and it was clear that the commotion had ended.

Sure enough, a short while later, the waiter came running back, wiping his sweat.

Before anyone could ask, he quickly offered an explanation.

"Don't be afraid, esteemed guests. Someone caused a disturbance at Yunjian Restaurant again but was driven away. Everything is fine now."

The tavern owner also stood at the entrance watching the commotion.

Just then, I saw a few people running past in a disheveled state; they were clearly the troublemakers.

He clicked his tongue and shook his head, "How many waves have there been already, and they still haven't learned their lesson."

Someone replied, "I guess he's new here again; he hasn't heard about Yundianjia's reputation yet."

The waiter hurriedly said, "This time it's not a new employee causing trouble, it's about the purchase limit."

He quickly explained the situation in a few words.

It turns out that Yunjian Vegetable Shop introduced a new rule yesterday: each family is limited to purchasing 5 portions.

They even handed out bamboo sticks to people who went to buy groceries, saying that they should use these to buy groceries from now on.

One per person, with a maximum of five per household.

If anyone loses the bamboo strip, they will no longer be able to buy vegetables at the Cloud Vegetable Shop.

When everyone took the bamboo strips, they all felt that the shopkeeper's action was somewhat unnecessary.

Even if she could identify every single person who came to buy vegetables and receive a bamboo strip,

How can a newcomer confirm whether the other party is from the same family?

However, everyone was still looking forward to it when they heard that for every ten red marks carved on the bamboo strips, they could get a free dish.

And sure enough, someone broke the rules today.

The vegetables at Yunjian Vegetable Shop are good, and they're not sold anywhere else, so the market is huge.

Many people then had the idea of ​​becoming middlemen.

Of course, this is based on the rule of limiting the purchase of vegetables at grocery stores.

So at present, it's just some small-scale operations by street vendors.

These people would gather a dozen or so others every day to queue up to buy vegetables, and then secretly find ways to sell them at high prices.

If the quality of the vegetables is excellent, they won't be difficult to sell as long as you can find the right channels.

As more and more people benefited, the ranks naturally grew larger and larger.

These people naturally only received five bamboo strips yesterday.

During the discussion, the shopkeeper pointed out that they were middlemen and gave them a warning, but they didn't take it seriously.

Today we came to queue together again, and we even invited our family members to join us.

To avoid being recognized by the online store owners, they all dispersed.

Who knew that the first one would be caught?

Even though it was the person's first time there, the shopkeeper said they already had five bamboo sticks and that the person had to bring a bamboo stick to buy vegetables.

They initially tried to resort to tantrums and arguments.

The cloud store owner had their staff kick them out and blacklist them.

The men with bamboo sticks became nervous and immediately stepped forward to argue, but their bamboo sticks were also removed, and they were deprived of their chance to buy vegetables.

Enraged, these people, relying on their numbers, tried to cause trouble and steal vegetables in the chaos.

Before the cloud store could even make a move...

The young master beside her immediately summoned a group of highly skilled guards, both men and women, who tied everyone up and dragged them away.

As for where it's being dragged to, nobody cares, and they can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

More than twenty people came at once, and it was said that they were middlemen.

If they sell their vegetables, more and more people will know about them.

Even if their business isn't doing well, wouldn't it attract even more people to queue up?

The fact that the food market attracts more competitors is a real headache for their long-time customers.
