Yun Zhiyi always thought she was the fake young mistress who had taken another's place. After the real one returned, she held back in every way.
Only after being thrown into the mass grav...
His meridians were once secretly damaged during a martial arts competition, causing considerable injury.
Although he was treated by the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley, he was still left with some minor injuries.
It won't have any effect normally, but if you exercise too much or too intensely, your meridians will become painful.
But whether it's the dishes from Wei Man Zhai or the strawberries now.
He had a vague feeling that the strange, gentle power might have a restorative effect on his meridians.
He opened his eyes, suppressed the emotion in them, put on a gentle smile, and looked at Yu Shaolian across from him, who was looking at him like he was a thief, and was eating red strawberries in one hand and white strawberries in the other.
"Brother Yu, you've helped me again."
Yu Shaolian was taken aback and looked at him blankly, "Huh?"
Just then, the servant who came to buy groceries arrived.
Yu Shaolian disregarded his strange question and hurriedly asked, "What is this white fruit?"
It looks like a strawberry, but it's not a strawberry.
The servant glanced at the young man who was also looking over, then quickly lowered his head and said...
"Young Master, Shopkeeper Yun said these are new strawberries called Snow Jade Strawberries. The pure white color indicates that these strawberries are ripe, not unripe. Young Master, is there something wrong with these strawberries?"
He hesitated when he saw these white strawberries, worried that they wouldn't taste good.
I originally only wanted to buy one serving, but then I remembered how the young master got angry the first time he didn't get enough to eat.
Let others get a share too.
So he was feeling a little uneasy.
What if the young master doesn't like it and blames him for making decisions on his own?
Upon hearing this, Yu Shaolian nodded repeatedly.
"Snow Jade Strawberry, indeed a fitting description, truly as white as snow and as white as jade, wonderful indeed."
After saying that, he hurriedly said, "Do you still have any in the store? You should quickly take some more people to buy them all."
The young man listening in couldn't help but straighten his back, eager to see what he was up to.
The servant secretly breathed a sigh of relief; at least he wasn't being questioned.
"Young master, the shop only offers one hundred servings of strawberries today. I bought fourteen servings, but when I left, I saw that there seemed to be quite a few servants in the queue. I'm afraid..."
Yu Shaolian's face darkened. "Why didn't you bring more people with you back then?"
The servants looked distressed; seven of them had gone.
He thought of something, and his face became even more bitter.
"Well, young master, there's one more thing. The Yun shopkeeper said that they won't make any exceptions for today's opening, but from now on, each shop can only limit purchases to a maximum of five people."
"What? Five people?"
Yu Shaolian suddenly stood up. "Why should I! Do you think I'm short of money? Why won't she sell it!"
The servant thought to himself, "If the shopkeeper is going to this extent, he must be someone who has plenty of money."
The young man couldn't help but ask, "How does she know how many people in a family are buying?"
"Oh right."
The servant took out five finger-length, fingernail-width, emerald green bamboo strips from his purse.
There was a single character written on the bamboo slip.
"This was given to us by the shopkeeper. Everyone who goes to buy groceries can get one. You can use this to make purchases in the future. The shopkeeper said that he would draw a line on the back of the item each time you pay to prevent it from being reused. Out of seven people, only five of us got a token."
The young man took the skewer, gently ran his fingers over it, and a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.
These bamboo strips appear to be made of bamboo, but they don't seem to be.
It feels cool and smooth to the touch, like fine jade, and is light and emerald green, with a faint bamboo fragrance.
For a moment, he couldn't determine what it was made of.
He couldn't help but repeat the same question.
"How does that cloud-based shopkeeper know which people in the queue belong to the same family and which don't? Won't they give you too much?"
The servant slowly shook his head. "I don't know, but that's what the shopkeeper said."
Yu Shaolian understood, and he picked up the bamboo strip, played with it, and stroked his chin.
"Go find Steward Zhou and have him send a few more servants, dressed in different clothes, to line up now and get the tickets."
"Yes," the servant replied and quickly left.
The young man casually forked another strawberry and chuckled.
"It seems Brother Yu has bought quite a few vegetables today. I wonder if I would have the honor of tasting them?"
Yu Shaolian sighed helplessly, "Brother Kun, you're being too polite."
The two continued chatting and eating strawberries. Soon after, the butler rushed over, his brow furrowed.
Seeing his appearance, Yu Shaolian immediately had a bad feeling.
Butler Zhou glanced at the guest first.
Yu Shaolian understood what he meant, so he asked directly, "How is it, Steward Zhou? Have you gotten the skewer for Yunjian Vegetable Shop?"
Steward Zhou shook his head helplessly, "I arranged for two groups of people to go, but the shopkeeper Yun said that all five spots were filled. Later, I hired a passerby to go, and it worked. I don't know how the shopkeeper Yun recognized our servants."
Butler Zhou felt uneasy and was even more wary of Yunjian Restaurant.
I had long heard that Yunjian Restaurant was no ordinary establishment.
The two new shops that were previously discovered may have been bought by the Rongguo Duke's Mansion.
Could it be that Yunjian Restaurant is owned by the Rongguo Duke's Mansion?
If that's the case, it's no wonder the other party has such ability to investigate the Yu family thoroughly.
He felt that if the young master couldn't befriend such a person, it was best not to offend him.
Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with curiosity.
Is it really possible for this online store owner to confirm things so accurately?
Although it is easy for wealthy and powerful people to investigate the situation of a particular family.
But it's not impossible to be so precise that all the servants can recognize it.
The premise is that the other party is only targeting one or two companies.
But the other party's meaning is clearly that they can know the situation in all customers' homes, which is very suspicious.
They don't really believe it.
The young man turned his head and said, "I'll try it tomorrow."
Yu Shaolian also became interested, "I'll go too."
