Yang Yanzhou clicked his tongue a few times, wondering who this was—the one who used to look down on women for smoking.
When Lu Yun Shen looked over again, he met Lin Zi Yan's eyes.
He smiled slightly, looking completely at ease.
Lin Ziyan glanced at it, took another puff of her cigarette, and then stubbed it out.
It didn't matter if Lu Yun Shen saw it, but she couldn't let her younger sisters see it; she had to maintain her image as a good older sister...
"Sister Fang, please don't hesitate to ask if you need any help. I live in Haibi Village, and you're always welcome to come to my house," Lin Ziyan said sincerely.
After being reborn in a small fishing village, she didn't have many friends, except for Sister Fang.
Whether it was when she first started selling lemon tea or later running a shrimp farm, Sister Fang helped her a lot.
"Okay, when Song Yi comes back to mind the shop, I'll take him to Haibi Village for a visit," Fang Jie said with a gentle smile, a warm feeling flowing through her heart.
Almost all of her relatives are gone, so having more friends is a good thing.
Lin Ziyan nodded, "No problem, I'll cook you a seafood feast then."
The two smiled at each other, went into the shop, and started packing their things.
Qin Yuzhu smashed items that were unlikely to break, probably because she was worried about spending her son's money.
As Fangjie tidied up, she muttered, "She's quite perceptive; it seems she really thinks this shop is owned by her son."
The chubby girl had already finished cleaning up most of it. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Sister Fang, next time that old woman comes, just kick her out."
"How dare she say that even if she killed you, no one could do anything about it? Has she lost her mind?"
Fangjie burst out laughing; the description was truly apt.
"The police will teach her a lesson!" Xiaoxiao, the second sister, said indignantly, clenching her fists.
Jiaojiao had already moved a small stool and was sitting down. "Sister Fang, don't be afraid..."
Fangjie pinched her chubby cheeks, a smile spreading across her eyes.
The group spent more than ten minutes tidying up and putting the things back in their places before stopping.
The sunlight gradually moved and shone into the store.
The large, colorful umbrella at the entrance blocked most of the heat, casting shadows inside the store and blocking out most of the heat.
When Lin Ziyan returned to the village entrance, she saw Aunt Huang anxiously waiting by the big rock.
"Ayan, something happened at the shrimp farm!" Aunt Huang breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her.
Hearing the sound, the chubby girl sped up.
"What happened?" Lin Ziyan stopped and looked at her with a frown.
Aunt Huang said, "The owner of a shrimp farm in the next village put up a banner at the entrance of the shrimp farm."
"There's a lot of talk about it in the village now."
"The boss said that our farming methods ruined him, causing all the shrimp in his shrimp farm to disappear."
"I don't know the specifics either. You should go back and check."
“A-Jian went to another village and hasn’t come back yet.”
Lin Ziyan pursed her lips. "That boss is cooperating with us?"
Aunt Huang hurriedly shook her head, "No, he doesn't know where he got the breeding methods from, and now he's blaming us."
Fatty: "Then why are you looking for us?"
"It's not like we're dealing with a shrimp farm owner..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lin Ziyan had already ridden her bicycle toward the shrimp farm.
Aunt Huang hurriedly jogged to catch up.
When they arrived at the shrimp farm entrance, a large crowd had already gathered, including people from the neighboring village who had come to watch the spectacle.
"I told you shrimp farms aren't so easy to run! Look at him, he's Xu Shisi from Haitang Village, his whole family depends on him to support them!"
"That's not how it works. He approached the shrimp farm without cooperating with them, which doesn't make sense."
When people from the neighboring village make sarcastic remarks, people from their own village will always try to defend themselves.
The banner read: "Give me my hard-earned money..."
Lin Ziyan glanced at it, her lips twitching; the banner looked very familiar.
It's very similar to what we saw when we confronted unscrupulous real estate developers in the past...
However, the banner was made of rags and had stains on it.
"I am Lin Ziyan, the owner of the shrimp farm. Let's settle this here. If you cause trouble, I can call the police." Lin Ziyan propped her bicycle up to the side.
Xu Shisi's eyes were filled with hatred as he suddenly stood up.
However, the people of Haibi Village blocked him from getting close to Lin Ziyan.
Many people in the village work at the shrimp farm now, so we can't let an outsider like him cause trouble.
"All your shrimp farming methods are scams!"
"All the shrimp in my shrimp farm were eaten by bubble fish. Pah! A college graduate? He's a fraud."
“Your Haibi Village has produced a swindler!” Xu Shisi shouted loudly.
Lin Ziyan squinted, noticing that he was very excited, and didn't stop him from continuing.
"I should have listened to the experts and not tried to catch those bubble fish. Now look what's happened, everything's ruined!"
Xu Shisi buried his face in his hands and wept bitterly, squatting on the ground and hitting his head.
He cried for a while, then stopped and wiped his face.
“You…” Xu Shisi calmed down and stared at the composed Lin Ziyan in front of him.
The chubby girl rushed over, about to say something, but was stopped by Lin Ziyan.
"There are standards for what kind of shrimp to raise with bubble fish and what the ratio should be. Have you not learned any of these things?" Lin Ziyan asked with a serious expression.
In the manuals she provided to each of her business partners, she emphasized the precautions for keeping bubble fish together.
If the ratio is not right, or the shrimp species is wrong, the ferocious bubble fish will certainly eat all the shrimp larvae.
Before Xu Shisi could say anything more, the people from Haitang Village arrived with sticks.
"Who hit our villagers..."
The young men of Haitang Village, carrying farm tools, shouted loudly.
Their village is notoriously domineering, with many young men, and no village nearby dares to mess with them.
The young men of Haibi Village surrounded Lin Ziyan, fearing that they would swarm her.
