The old man hummed a little tune as he entered the inn where he was staying.
Lu Xingchen thought for a moment and then released Meimei.
They were in the alley next door, a rather desolate alley with no inhabitants, and it was closer to the old man's inn.
The sheep can hear what's being said over there.
MeeMee's super hearing is much better than that of the little blue fish.
She just didn't dare to release it when Elder Ji was around.
Lu Xingchen held Meimei and waited in the next alley for a while.
But after more than ten minutes, I heard a desperate cry: "Ahhh, how come it's lost again? Bah, bah, bah, which wicked thief is stealing from me?"
It's the old man with white beard.
"Aaaaaah, how dare you steal from me! Aaaaah!" The old man ran wildly out of the alley and went straight to the restaurant.
Lu Xingchen asked Meimei, "What did you just hear?"
Meimei: "The old man was humming a little tune when he suddenly shouted that he had lost all his eating utensils, and then he came out."
Lu Xingchen took out the merchant qualification certificate he had just stolen.
It was a white card of unknown material, with a crystal pattern printed on it and a line of small words underneath: "Can deal in crystal products."
With this, can she buy crystals?
I'm not sure, I'll have to try.
Lu Xingchen secretly followed them to the restaurant.
A large crowd had already gathered in front of the restaurant.
An old man with a white beard was cursing, cursing the restaurant owner, saying he was immoral and supported a group of thieves.
The restaurant owner turned out to be that little dwarf, who was arguing with the white-bearded old man.
The dwarf vehemently denied it: "I didn't keep a thief!"
The white-bearded old man said, "Pah! Do you think I don't know? You've stolen from every one of those new out-of-towners who came in."
The dwarf: "Hmph, you're really something. Which of those outsiders hasn't been fooled by you? Two of them are probably still in jail, right?"
Old man: "Thief!"
Dwarf: "Liar!"
Lu Xingchen listened and understood.
Neither of these is good stuff!
The NPCs in Frosty Village are just awful; not a single one of them is nice.
The old man and the dwarf argued for half an hour before finally giving up and dejectedly returning home.
Lu Xingchen returned to the snack stall.
It's almost four o'clock now, and Lu Haoyue and the others have already packed their things and are preparing the ingredients for dinner.
They also divided the money.
Because there was an abundance of food at noon, they made a lot of money at noon alone. They divided the money among themselves and finally gave Lu Xingchen 15,000 gold coins.
Each of Lu Haoyue and the other two also received 15,000.
Gao Dafu and Gu Yanzhi also received a considerable share.
Lu Xingchen originally didn't intend to accept it, but Lu Haoyue insisted on giving it to her, and also returned the money for the three safes, three cotton coats, and the accommodation.
Lu Xingchen refused for a while, but finally got 20,000 gold coins.
She had more than 40,000 gold coins in her hand.
A few people got a lot of gold coins and wanted to go shopping.
Naturally, Lu Xingchen took the lead again, and she led everyone on a shopping spree, buying a lot of high-grade wood, marble, high-grade minerals, and so on.
When you're spending money, time flies by.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Haoyue and others hurried back to continue cooking, grilling skewers and setting up a stall.
Lu Xingchen found a secluded spot at the end of South Street and had Lanlan keep an eye on Old Master Ji's movements.
Around 6:30, Lanlan called out, "Xiao Lu, Xiao Lu, the old man who was driving the carriage is back. He has a disc and is arguing with the old swindler."
Lanlan: "Huh, are they about to start?"
Lu Xingchen quickly said, "Come back!"
