There are cultivators fighting here.
The dazzling array of magical attacks made Lu Wu's eyes burn with fervor; each strike was deadly, making one wonder if these people had some kind of mortal feud.
But in reality...
"You dare steal my people? I'll kill you."
"In the cultivation world, strength is paramount. So what if I'm stronger than you? If you're so capable, then don't buy steamed buns."
"Hehe, do you think I don't know your little schemes? It's just that the courtesan you've got your eye on is willing to be taken care of by me. If the person isn't good enough, don't blame the road for being uneven."
"What a joke! You really think it's your own ability? It's all because Boss Lu's steamed buns are so good."
The story is simple: Zhang San took a fancy to Hua Niang, but Hua Niang was conquered by Li Si's strength last night and was willing to be with him tonight, so Zhang San was naturally not satisfied.
After finding out the reason, he wanted to make a comeback with steamed buns, but would Li Si be willing to do that?
They started arguing and then started fighting.
Then Lu Wu saw this scene.
There were many onlookers, and some were even eating sunflower seeds. Many people had benefited from the previous night's business, and with their praise, Lu Wu's steamed bun stall gained a reputation on Hualiu Street.
Some clever small vendors have moved their stalls over.
Lu Wu looked around and found that there were many people gathered, and even many courtesans from brothels were sticking their heads out to watch the excitement.
Surrounded by layers of enemies, Lu Wu was unable to break through.
The weak and helpless Lu Wu watched as those people fought each other over steamed buns, leaving her, the steamed bun seller, outside. She couldn't help but reach out her hand.
"Excuse me, could you please move aside?"
Her voice was drowned out by the crowd, and there were people around her urging them to continue.
Lu Wu also saw Lou Xiaotian, whose aloof face was darting around in his eyes, as if he were plotting some wicked idea.
Perhaps Lu Wu's gaze was too obvious, because when Lou Xiaotian looked over, his eyes lit up like light bulbs the moment he saw Lu Wu.
He opened his mouth as if to shout, but then quickly covered his mouth again, remembering something.
Then, he stealthily slipped out from the crowd, walked to Lu Wu's side, and deliberately covered Lu Wu's face.
"Boss Lu, let's make a deal. You don't need to go over there. I'll buy all the steamed buns today."
After verifying the claims made by the diners last night, he has confirmed that Boss Lu's steamed buns have some special enhancement effects.
He's a man too, and I'm smitten.
"Probably not."
Lu Wu shook her head. The system showed that she was not currently within the scope of setting up a stall, and the buns she sold now did not count.
Another thing is that she made an appointment with the diners yesterday, so she definitely can't let one person book the whole place.
"ah!"
Lou Xiaotian's regret was too obvious. Just as Lou Xiaotian was about to offer some words of comfort, someone shouted something.
"Boss Lu is here!"
There are quite a few sharp-eyed people.
So, the two fighting in the middle of the crowd stopped without warning, and Zhang San even snapped his fingers, restoring the broken ground.
Spells are so useful, they can turn a sour lemon into a sour lemon.
Pairs of eyes turned to look at her. Under the watchful gaze of these laser beams, Lu Wu smiled and greeted them.
"Hello everyone, I'm here. Please make way so I can set up my stall."
Splash!
The crowd parted in a second.
Someone even kindly helped Lu Wu push the cart.
"Boss Lu, you've prepared enough steamed buns for today. I'm all ready to feast!"
"Mr. Lu, I'm a new customer, you can't show favoritism to me."
"I'm not greedy, I just want the kind from yesterday."
"Hey, make way, everyone. I was Boss Lu's first customer yesterday. I helped Boss Lu open the business. Today, you can at least let me go first."
Amidst the banter, the woman from last night came to Lu Wu's side, her eyes burning with desire as she looked at him.
Lu Wu, who felt like she was about to be devoured alive, understood what was going on when she saw the slightly faded freckles on the other person's clean face.
"Little sister, thank you for the steamed buns."
"My name is Furong. From now on, you can set up your stall here with peace of mind. With me here, no one will dare to touch you."
When Furong said this, she glanced at everyone, and many people dared not meet her eyes.
Although it wasn't directed at Lu Wu, Lu Wu still sensed a powerful pressure emanating from the other party, suggesting that Fu Rong's cultivation level was quite high among this group.
"I hope you all agree that I should be first, right?"
Furong asked with a smile.
"Of course not, Miss Furong, you should be the first one."
A group of people laughed and nodded. Before they could react, the little tyrant who had just been rejected cleverly stood behind Furong.
"Everyone, please be considerate and line up. Also, please don't fight, or you might hurt Boss Lu."
Lu Wu has no cultivation level, which can be seen through by cultivators at a glance.
Even the slightest aftershock of a battle between a mortal and a cultivator could kill Lu Wu several times over.
With Lou Xiaotian's thoughtful assistance, the crowd began to organize their formation.
Some minor friction is unavoidable due to the issue of priority.
Lu Wu's movements were practiced and skillful.
Even if it's still raw meat filling, it's enough to make diners' eyes light up.
Watching Lu Wu deftly stuff a large amount of filling into the thin dumpling skin, the skin was thin and the filling was plentiful.
They could easily foresee the scene of the meat filling gently swaying in the broth through the thin skin of the steamed buns after they were cooked.
Slurp!
A bunch of people were drooling.
Lu Wu, who was eagerly awaiting the arrival of the buns, arranged them in baskets.
Furong wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and started chatting with Lu Wu to distract herself.
"Boss Lu, could you supply these steamed buns to the ladies in our building on a long-term basis?"
Among the group, Hua Niang cast a fiery glance at them.
They weren't interested in kidney-shaped buns or small meat buns, but no woman could resist the beauty-enhancing red bean paste buns.
"Ah, you can come and buy it for the next five days."
For Lu Wu, a chef, the willingness of diners to patronize the restaurant is the best affirmation, and she is very happy.
Unfortunately, she was doing a system task.
The food sold afterward, and the locations where it was sold, were all arranged by the system, and she had no way of knowing for sure.
Although she felt bad for her sisters, she wanted to cultivate immortality.
For the sake of the system rewards, she certainly won't stay in one place for too long.
"Why only five days?"
Furong asked, and the others also pricked up their ears.
“Mr. Lu, if you have any difficulties, just tell me. I believe there is nothing in Xiahe Town that I cannot handle.”
Lou Xiaotian also spoke up.
"Yes, Mr. Lu, is someone causing trouble for you, or is someone threatening you? Tell me, shall we go up and smash his head in?"
Lu Wu was moved by the protection of a group of violent cultivators, but declined.
"No, there's no difficulty."
"I just want to try more kinds of food, and the location of my stall will not be fixed in the future, so I can't make any promises."
Amidst the puzzled looks of the crowd, Lu Wu arranged the freshly baked buns. She glanced at the already long queue and hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"To ensure everyone can have some, today we're limiting each person to two buns."
