Garland's Curiosity
It was because of this wave of influence that Tang Yingyu became extremely popular on Star Network, and even the Huaxia Snack Shop became extremely popular. For a while, Xue Luo, who had just recovered from the influence of her scumbag father, was busy again.
Even Xie Wan and Lin Meimei took the initiative to come and help. It was summer vacation now, and although they were planning to travel soon, they had been coming to the small supermarket more often recently.
Even Xueluo was wondering whether she should buy a customer service robot. Although the price was more expensive than manual labor, she was not used to having outsiders involved except the white cat.
"But maybe it's just for a while?" With this thought in mind, Xueluo put her thoughts on hold. Having previously made the front page of Today's City News, the residents of Third Street knew that the snacks at Huaxia Mini Mart were unique. Even the children, young people, and office workers in the area liked to shop there.
Especially this time, since she became famous on StarNet along with the popular young actress Tang Yingyu, it would be a lie to say that there are no people who are envious and jealous of her.
Their questions about the origins of Xueluo's unusual snacks sparked inquiries. Even when Xueluo claimed she'd stumbled upon the recipe by chance, they immediately demanded the specifics. Xueluo wasn't stupid; she saw through their thoughts and simply smiled. Those who asked with malicious intent were immediately annoyed. "Xueluo, I see you have an online store and an offline business, so your production should be sufficient, right? Have you ever considered recruiting distributors?"
This is not just one person. Seeing that the number of customers at Hua Xia Supermarket is increasing day by day and the income is also rising, more and more people have ulterior motives. Most of these men and women are of the same generation as Xue Luo's mother. Some of them own shops and some do business outside. They come to the store together at this time, and they have the idea of forcing the little girl.
Xueluo was really annoyed at this moment. These neighbors would occasionally say hello when they passed by, but compared to Uncle Wu, Aunt Wen, and Uncle Wen, they were still far behind. What's more, she had redeemed the Huaxia snacks from the system. How could she possibly expose such a big secret to everyone? But if she said she would refuse, it would be the neighbors' fault...
Especially here I saw colleagues from my former employer Ruyun Snacks coming to join in the fun.
"You want to be distributors?" Xueluo hadn't figured out how to answer when Wu Xu, who had come from the auto repair shop next door, came over and said, "The Chinese snacks that Xueluo made are now a brand. They have a lot of requirements. First, you have to invest one million, and second, the annual sales must exceed five million, and then I'll take a 5% commission..."
As soon as Wu Xu finished speaking, many onlookers were forced to retreat. There were still some stubborn people who were afraid of Wu Xu when they saw his cold and devilish expression. They were afraid of him on weekdays, not to mention that he was now actively supporting Xue Luo.
"No... Boss Wu! Isn't your request a bit too high? Even the big snack manufacturers don't have such requirements!" There were still some people who were really jealous of the income of Xue Luo's store and really wanted to join in. The middle-aged man who spoke immediately received support from others.
"That's right! Xueluo, this isn't something Uncle Wu can decide for himself!"
"Uncle Wu, you can't stop us. We are doing business together and want to achieve common prosperity!"
Wu Xu looked at them, his eyebrows raised. He had always been the person on this street who could stop children from crying at night. Not only were the children afraid of him, but even the young people and his peers were afraid of him. "You still say shared prosperity? I've seen you for years, and you've never brought prosperity to us neighbors? So you insist on Xue Luo making a decision today, and then you can achieve shared prosperity."
These words are so harsh, isn't it just a roundabout way of saying that they are bullying a little girl whose mother has died and is in jail!
Those who originally had that idea suddenly felt disappointed. Seeing that Xue Luo next to them had no intention of interrupting at all, they could not understand that the other party did not have that idea for the time being. Even if they were numerous and powerful, they were still forced to retreat by Wu Xu alone.
"Uncle Wu, thank you!" Xueluo was very grateful. Even the white cat who was watching coldly on the side looked at Wu Xu who was like a kind father in front of him. Even though he had been here for almost a month, he was still not used to the face of the man in front of him.
Wu Xu was a little unused to her constantly thanking him, so he said, "We're all neighbors. I've watched you grow up. You call me Uncle Wu, but I can't just sit back and watch these people come and harass me."
He scratched his head and refused to look at him.
Xueluo couldn't help but smile secretly. Now she knew that Uncle Wu had been taking care of her because he felt guilty towards her mother. Or maybe, in his eyes, she was also his daughter.
Xue Luo couldn't help but feel regretful. What a pity!
Of course, or perhaps, if everything was so perfect, she wouldn't have come.
"Okay, you guys go ahead and do your work, I'm coming over."
"Okay." Xueluo and White Cat stood by the cashier counter, watching his back as he left.
Xueluo poked the cat, and the white cat meowed in confusion.
Xueluo said, "Uncle Wu is such a nice guy. He looks fierce, but that scar is to blame. He's actually a very nice person!"
The white cat disagreed.
That is to say, in front of Xue Luo, whenever the former Vice Admiral Blade smiled, everyone would be afraid that he had done something wrong again.

In the repair shop.
Wu Xu casually picked up a handkerchief and wiped the stains off his hands. Thinking of what had just happened in the small supermarket next door, he began to frown, thinking, "Luoluo's healing ability will probably become increasingly difficult to conceal in the future. I wonder what she's thinking? And there must be many secrets hidden in these snacks. I'm afraid even a large and unshakable group like Le Jia is targeting her. That would be quite a problem!"
Just at this moment, a call reminder rang on the smart computer, interrupting his thoughts.
Seeing that it was Garland's call, Wu Xu said: "..."
Why call him at this time? Although he was complaining in his heart, Wu Xu still answered the call of his old friend, "Hello."
"Hello, Old Wu, don't we know each other anymore?" Garland couldn't help but complain.
Wu Xu said, "If you have something to say, just say it."
Garland: "Don't be so cold, my dear old friend~"
Wu Xu shuddered immediately, "Be more normal... I guess it has something to do with Xueluo's matter."
Garland's tone was also smiling: "You're right this time. Miss Xue's Chinese snack shop has been really popular recently, and it's even been promoted by a popular young actress. Now even our lab can't buy some online to try it ourselves!"
Wu Xu knew there was something else behind Garland's words. Sure enough, the first words were just for relaxation, so he continued, "These snacks are not easy to make. The variety is so rich that it doesn't seem like they were designed at the same time... Of course, I don't think Miss Xueluo can't make them. Compared to how delicious these snacks are, I care more about the various types of healing abilities they contain. I don't know how she combined her own healing factors with these spiritual factors in these snacks to produce such perfect results!"
Garland became more and more excited as he spoke. If Wu Xu had not agreed with him not to disturb Xue Luo, he would have lost control of himself by now.
Of course, as a healer, Garland, who is more inclined towards research, simply has a desire for talent.
"What do you want to ask?" Wu Xu didn't like his roundabout way of speaking, and he didn't give him any slack. "Just tell me straight. I'll give you an answer depending on my mood. If you don't tell me, it's over."
"No, no, no, actually, I'm just a little curious about who Miss Xueluo is collaborating with to research these snacks. I didn't expect that Miss Xueluo is not only an excellent healer, but also an excellent snack designer."
Wu Xu scoffed. "She used to work at Ruyun Snacks for three years. With her talent, shouldn't she be able to achieve something of her own?"
Garland T: "Old Wu, I don't think so."
Of course, even Wu Xu did have his doubts, but compared to his own doubts, which were just doubts and would not affect Luo Luo's life, it was different for Garland. After all, he belonged to the Alliance Military.
Wu Xu said calmly, "She's on a planet called Blue Star, and seems to be collaborating with the locals."
"Blue Star?" Garland had never heard of it. "It sounds like it should be a very ordinary planet. Hiss... Not only have I never heard of it, but even on the Alliance star map, it's just a country planet that's off the main route."
Garland's evaluation was pertinent, or perhaps it could be said that this blue planet was actually much more remote than he said.
Wu Xu: "Why are you asking this?"
Garland grumbled, but wasn't that what you said yourself? "Old Wu, aren't you being a little paranoid right now? Don't worry, I know all about the young man you're protecting. I'll research the spiritual factors in Miss Xueluo's snacks, but I won't bother her! She and I are both healers, so just trust us; we share a common understanding in some areas."
"Miss Xueluo's Chinese snacks are so popular now, and they're bound to be discovered by many people in the future. They contain this healing factor called the Additional State." Garland smiled and said, "But, let me tell you, Old Wu, I'm on your side and have her backing. If you really need help, just come to me."
His words seemed to hint at something, but Wu Xu didn't say anything. "I hope that day won't come."
Garland just smiled and said, "Of course, I hope so too."
