After catching up, Li Zhong shamelessly asked Lin Jinxiu to take him into the city. He had just seen clearly that the second branch of the Lin family had travel permits, so as long as they were willing, he wouldn't have to stay outside in the sun and rain.
With this in mind, Li Zhong talked about the recent situation in Huichun City, and even mentioned Lin Zhaozhao's family. Speaking of Lin Zhaozhao, Li Zhong was filled with hatred. If Lin Zhaozhao had helped him when he fled the famine, he wouldn't have ended up in such a state, with his wife and mother gone.
As he spoke, Li Zhong covered his face and wept, shedding a few crocodile tears.
Lin Jinxiu watched him perform indifferently. Thinking of Lin Zhaozhao, who was doing very well in Huichun, she curled her lips. It couldn't be that her sister-in-law was eating and drinking well while her brother-in-law was eating coarse food. That didn't make sense.
With each side harboring their own agendas, beneath a facade of pretense, Lin Jinxiu led her family and Li Zhong into Huichun City.
Lin's Fruit Shop has officially entered a stable phase of operation, with daily revenue ranging from 5 to 10 taels of silver. On a good day, they might sell one or two potted plants, but on a bad day, they would only make money from selling fruit. As for the VIP card, no one has mentioned it except on the opening day.
Lin Zhaozhao didn't feel a big psychological gap. With someone watching over the shop, she simply became a hands-off manager, leading Ping An and Yang Yuan to wander around the city every day, returning to the shop to rest when they got tired.
Until this day.
Lin Zhaozhao was strolling around as usual when her path was suddenly blocked.
"Lady Lin, it's been a long time." Liu Kuan was overjoyed. His already round face jiggled with laughter, and his eyes narrowed into slits.
"Uncle Liu." Lin Zhaozhao lowered her guard and walked to an open space.
"Madam Lin, I've been searching high and low for you! I've practically looked all over Huichun City but couldn't find your stall. I was so worried!" Liu Kuan wiped non-existent sweat from his forehead, beaming with delight.
"Let's not beat around the bush, I'm here for the bonsai this time." Last time, Liu Kuan bought nineteen bonsai, intending to repay a favor, test the waters with a few, and keep most for himself, but the response far exceeded his expectations.
He sold that single strawberry tree for a high price of a thousand taels of silver, not to mention the peach, fig, and apple bonsai trees he gave away.
Many people openly and secretly inquired about the origin of the bonsai, hoping to use this opportunity to bring good fortune to their families.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Liu Kuan was afraid that the origin of these potted plants could not be kept secret and that someone would find out sooner or later, so he decided to buy another large batch.
Once you seize the opportunity, how can you not make money?
"Uncle Liu, you may not know this, but I have rented a shop and haven't been setting up a stall in the city center for many days now." Lin Zhaozhao smiled and led the man towards Lin's Fruit Shop. Liu Kuan listened attentively, occasionally asking a question.
As the crowd thinned out, Liu Kuan no longer held back, saying, "Madam Lin, I'll take all the potted plants you have now."
"No rush, let's go into the shop first." Upon entering Lin's Fruit Shop, Liu Kuan calmly began to inspect it. Compared to the haphazard way it operated as a stall in the bustling city, the shop was much more distinctive, and the newly introduced potted plants were also tempting to pick.
After browsing through the shops, Liu Kuan understood Lin Zhaozhao's hesitation.
