Ling Qi's chin agape. When did this Ling Ba learn to do business from his cousin?
Qin Susu nodded in agreement; she understood that Xiaoyan wanted to make money.
But where did they get the fresh ingredients?
The shop owner curled his lip, looking quite disdainful.
"They were just a few merchants passing through." He had been in business for over a decade, and this was the first time he had encountered customers like Qiu Yan who were actively promoting their products.
Could these people be merchants from Northern Qi?
The merchants from Northern Qi were incredibly arrogant. Last time, one of them even ate a free meal at his place, and he, a mere noodle shop owner, dared not speak out against it.
The shop owner still refused, saying, "Come on, come on, my little shop is doing very well."
Qiu Yan didn't move an inch, and continued, "Using my fresh ingredients can boost your business. Are you really unwilling to consider it? Don't worry, we are all legitimate business people."
The shopkeeper looked disdainful and casually asked, "Who are you trying to fool? Do you think I'm a sucker? Fresh ingredients? I've never heard of that before?"
Qiu Yan could tell that the shop owner was impatient. If she were the shop owner, she certainly wouldn't easily believe what a stranger said.
"Brother, please try it first. If you don't like it, you can choose not to buy it," Qiu Yan said politely with a smile. The shopkeeper still shook his head.
"No need!" the shopkeeper replied resolutely.
Qiu Yan and her friends were ruthlessly kicked out of the noodle shop by the shop owner.
The shop owner didn't want to be cheated; the world wasn't peaceful.
Outside the noodle shop, Qin Susu's face was a little hot. "What kind of person is this? If you don't want them, you don't have to. Why are you kicking them out?"
She was indignant, but the three people around her remained unusually calm.
Seeing Qiu Yan's gloomy face, Ling Ba comforted her, "Don't be sad, let's ask at another place."
Qiu Yan wasn't upset; she had experienced far worse things than this.
When they first arrived, the three sisters were mistaken for beggars.
She was just thinking about where to ask next.
Ling Qi glanced at the busy figure of the noodle shop owner and sighed, "A penny can stump even a hero!"
"This shop owner is really hard to talk to."
"Let's go." If this one doesn't work, let's try the next one.
At this moment, Qiu Yan was back to where she was when she first arrived, with only one thought on her mind: making money!
On the way, Qin Susu couldn't hide her curiosity.
"Xiaoyan, what fresh ingredients? We didn't bring any fresh ingredients with us."
"Make it fresh." Qiu Yan said, her gaze falling on the general store not far away.
"Let's go find an inn to rest for a while."
After hearing this, Ling Ba said, "Xiao Yan, you and Su Su stay at the inn, and the two of us will stay on your rooftop for the night."
This has happened more than once or twice these days.
He was somewhat worried about how to proceed from here on out.
Qiu Yan looked at Ling Qi and Ling Ba's noticeably thinner bodies and shook her head.
“You’ve been sleeping on the roof for too long, you can’t go on like this.”
Not to mention Ling Qi and Ling Ba, even she and Qin Susu have lost a lot of weight.
Traveling is important, but if your health fails, everything will be in vain.
Ling Qi: "We should save our money for food."
Qiu Yan: "No matter how frugal I am, it's still not enough." What she said was the absolute truth.
They still have a long way to go.
When she first arrived, in such a harsh environment, didn't she still make money?
If it weren't for the need to get to their destination as quickly as possible, she would have wanted to earn money earlier.
Now, getting around is important, but without money, you can't move an inch.
The four of them left the noodle shop and began looking for a place to stay.
They probably walked through four or five alleys and then across seven or eight main streets...
