(The previous chapter wasn't well-written, so I've revised it. If you feel the plot is disjointed, you can go back and refresh to take another look.)
Otherwise, with so many more underlings, we won't be able to afford to support them all.
Su Xiang felt a headache just thinking about it.
But as the eldest brother, how could he say no? At worst, he could just stop playing games and spend his rest time collecting scraps!
Yang Ruoli's eyes lit up immediately when she heard the child's words.
"I knew this must taste like Boss Lin's sesame seed cakes!"
He's been eating it for several days now. If he still can't remember the taste of Boss Lin's sesame seed cakes, then he's been eating them for nothing!
Everyone looked at Yang Ruoli with surprise, then at the child, and then gave Yang Ruoli a thumbs up.
"Bro, that's awesome!"
Yang Ruoli looked at the child with curiosity in her eyes.
"Little kid, can you tell us where you bought the sesame seed cakes? And was the person selling them an older brother?"
Being stared at so intently by a group of adults, Su Xiang, even though he was usually the eldest brother, was still a little scared at this moment.
These adults seem a bit off!
Yang Ruoli watched the child with his head down, not saying a word, picking up trash with a snakeskin bag.
He took his wallet out of his pocket.
Nowadays, people prefer online payments and not many people use wallets. Even if he runs a supermarket, there will still be people who use cash to buy things or pay money, so they are used to carrying wallets.
Judging from the clothes, this child's family is not well-off. They are not dressed in rags, but they are not exactly well-dressed either. The fact that they are still picking up trash at this hour makes one think of how many poor children have to be independent at a young age.
Yang Ruoli directly pulled out five hundred-yuan bills and placed them in front of the child.
“Kid, tell us about that sesame seed cake, and this money will be your reward.”
Su Xiang often collects recyclables, so he knows how to make money.
I was stunned; I'd never seen so much money before.
Seeing a group of grown men so frightened that the child dared not speak.
Ye Fan pushed away the men who got excited at the mention of sesame cakes and gently squatted down to comfort the child.
"We are all good people, child, don't be afraid. We are just curious about where the sesame seed cake you bought is. We all like to eat sesame seed cakes, can you understand?"
The diners, who had been excited for a while, realized that they had frightened the child because they were too excited.
Su Xiang hadn't yet recovered from the sight of those few red banknotes when he heard Ye Fan's words, and nodded blankly.
Then, remembering their question, she licked her dry lips and said, "They set up a stall near our school."
The diners were delighted to receive a reply from the child.
"No wonder Mr. Lin has only been setting up his stall in the mornings these past few days. Turns out he's been setting up his stall elsewhere the rest of the time. Mr. Lin is really cunning!"
"Absolutely! Who could have predicted this!"
"Kid, could you take us to scout out the way? We'll pay you!"
Su Xiang knew these people were rich when he was collecting scraps, but that wasn't what he was thinking.
Instead, they said, "It's quite far. If we go there now, the older brother should be packing up his stall by then."
The diners were 90% certain that this pancake stall belonged to Boss Lin, so naturally they didn't want to miss it.
So he said it was fine, he could just familiarize himself with the route.
“We have a car, you can give us directions, it will be quick, and making the sesame cakes takes time, so we might not be late.”
A group of people were already struggling with what to have for dinner.
Now there's no need to hesitate, just go for it.
Yang Ruoli drove the car over directly and put Su Xiang's snakeskin bag in the trunk.
He had plenty of food in his car, and he kindly offered it to the children, letting them eat first and giving them directions.
Su Xiang thought about the instructions from her teachers and parents in her mind and felt that this was not right.
But then he remembered that these people had just given him trash bottles.
And they pay you as soon as they sell.
Let's go to the village.
Is everything alright?
They still need him to give them directions.
Su Xiang, remaining vigilant, did not eat the food Yang Ruoli offered.
I sat awkwardly in the car, giving them directions.
It was more than half an hour later when the group arrived at the foot of the mountain in their cars.
Su Xiang only lowered his guard and started talking more when the car entered the village.
They enthusiastically gave directions to everyone.
The mountain road was difficult to travel. When they reached the foot of the mountain, a group of people got out of the car and saw the familiar Boss Lin. They were all moved to tears.
Boss Lin is incredibly fast!
Why would someone set up a stall in such a mountainous area?
"Boss Lin!"
The group of people had very complicated expressions when they saw Lin Zhou setting up his stall.
Lin Zhou had a bad feeling as soon as he saw these cars.
Upon seeing the people getting off these cars, they immediately lost all composure and lost control of their expressions.
No, he set up a stall in a remote mountain valley. How did he find these people?
"You managed to find this place?"
There weren't many students and parents left at the scene, and Lin Zhou planned to close up shop after selling for a while longer.
I never expected that my regular customers would actually come looking for me!
That's absolutely jaw-dropping.
"Thanks to this student."
Seeing the shocked expression on Boss Lin's face, Yang Ruoli felt extremely smug.
Ha ha ha ha!
Netizens are right. They love watching Mr. Lin hide and run his stall, only to be found by them, and then seeing the incredulous look on his face.
Awesome!
This is so awesome!
This exhilarating feeling completely offset the hardship of traversing mountains and valleys to find it.
When Lin Zhou saw the familiar kid, his expression immediately became uncontrollable.
No, isn't this the guy who bought the pancakes after school?
How did we meet?
"I've brought you here. Quickly give me my snakeskin bag, I'm leaving."
Su Xiang wanted to go back after finishing his business.
"No, no, it's the reward I promised you, kid, take it quickly."
When Yang Ruoli heard that the child was leaving, she stuffed the money she had prepared into the child's hand.
With so much money, Su Xiang dared not accept it.
Refuse immediately.
"No need, no need. I was just giving you directions and it happened to take me back to the village, so you don't need to pay me."
It was such a simple matter that Su Xiang wouldn't dare ask for so much money.
"We agreed on the payment. Without you, how would we have found Boss Lin? You have to accept this money today, no matter what."
One insisted on giving, while the other refused, wanting only his snakeskin bag.
The two walked and pulled at each other back and forth.
At Linzhou, diners had so much to say while ordering their sesame cakes.
"I knew Mr. Lin was setting up his stall in the afternoon, but now he only does it in the morning. Turns out he changed locations in the afternoon."
"I knew something was off these past few days, and now I know what was wrong."
"Sigh, we were too naive. We thought that if Boss Lin set up his stall in the morning, he definitely wouldn't set up in the afternoon. We didn't even think to ask him."
"Boss Lin, you kept this from us so well! If we hadn't run into that kid collecting scraps in town and smelled the aroma of the sesame cakes, we would never have known you were still setting up your stall this afternoon!"
"That's right, what is this? It's fate! What's meant to happen will happen, right?"
"Boss Lin, you can't escape our grasp, hahahaha~"
