The academy gates were wide open, and a large group of students stood in neat rows, looking toward the stalls.
The two tall, burly men were particularly busy, wolfing down their food while vigilantly watching the other students and occasionally stealing glances at the stall.
Big Fool's eyes gleamed with cunning. He leaned closer to Second Fool and whispered, "After we finish this meal, we'll send these students back, and then we'll sneak back here to queue up again."
Ersha grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth, and replied softly, "That's exactly what I was thinking!"
Yun Zhizhi had not forgotten that Liu Xuanyi was the teacher of this academy.
She personally cooked a spicy hot pot dish with meat, vegetables, and staple food, and walked lightly toward the front door with it in her hands.
Yun Zhizhi arrived at the entrance and found the gatekeeper Chen Bei: "I am a good friend of your academy's teacher Liu Xuanyi. Please help me deliver this bowl of spicy hot pot to her."
Chen Bei looked at the bowl of spicy hot pot, which looked and smelled delicious, and his mouth was practically watering, but he still agreed without hesitation.
Although the academy stipulated that students and teachers were not allowed to go out, they were allowed to bring food to relatives and friends when they came to visit.
The students standing to the side were envious of their female teacher, Liu Xuanyi, for having such a good friend.
Li Wen really wanted to try the spicy hot pot. He smiled slightly at Yun Zhizhi and boldly asked, "Miss Yun, do you need any more friends?"
Yun Zhizhi hadn't forgotten the extra task the lousy system had given her, and now was the perfect opportunity.
She first responded to Li Wen, "I don't need it."
Then, he said to the students, "If you want to eat mala tang (spicy hot pot), you can come and line up now. I guarantee you'll want more after you try it!"
She silently counted, and there were about twenty students. If they all came, she could complete half of her task at once.
The idea was perfect, but reality didn't allow it.
Da Sha had finished his bowl of food. He wiped his mouth and muttered to the students, "Alright, you've seen enough, right? Go eat in the cafeteria now."
Li Wen sighed helplessly, "We really want to buy it too, but the academy has rules that we can't break."
Yun Zhizhi was stunned as she watched the students obediently turn around and walk into the academy.
They looked like they really wanted to try the spicy hot pot, so why did they suddenly leave?
When Yun Zhizhi learned of the academy's rules, it was like a bolt from the blue.
Judging from this, it would be extremely difficult for her to sell mala tang to fifty students!
Since these well-behaved students dared not openly make purchases, she had no choice but to do it secretly.
This attracted the students with a sweet tooth, who secretly came to buy mala tang (a spicy hot pot dish).
When Zhao Yunjin arrived at the entrance of Lishan Academy with Zhao Yi and several guards, they happened to see Yun Zhizhi sitting alone under a big tree, sighing.
He frowned slightly and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Isn't business booming?"
Yun Zhizhi raised her eyes, blinked her bright black eyes, and replied, "I just felt that setting up a stall this time wasn't difficult enough, so I wanted to make it a little more challenging and get the students from Lishan Academy to buy from me. So, I was just thinking of a way."
She couldn't tell him directly that this was a task assigned to her by the lousy system, so she had to use this excuse.
Zhao Yunjin was well aware of the rules of Lishan Academy: "It is indeed quite difficult, but I have confidence in you and believe that you will be able to come up with a good solution."
Hearing this, Yun Zhizhi's mood immediately brightened. She smiled and urged, "Hurry up and choose your ingredients! If you wait any longer, the ingredients you like might be snatched up by others!"
Zhao Yunjin nodded gently: "Okay."
Watching Zhao Yunjin obediently walk towards the ingredient area, Yun Zhizhi turned to Zhao Yi and the others: "I'll treat you all to spicy hot pot. Hurry up and follow your master, and go pick out some ingredients you like!"
Zhao Yi and the other three grinned and replied in unison, "Thank you, Miss Yun."
Upon hearing Yun Zhizhi's words, Zhao Yunjin couldn't help but smile slightly.
As Zhao Yi and his companions were selecting ingredients, they once again witnessed their master's unquestioning obedience to Yun Zhizhi.
Based on their understanding of their master, he doesn't usually like strong-flavored food, but he surprisingly chose the bullfrog meat and duck blood that Yun Zhizhi strongly recommended without hesitation.
Zhao Yunjin's slightly spicy and slightly numbing flavor was cooked by Yun Zhizhi herself.
So he ate with great satisfaction, finishing the entire large bowl of spicy hot pot.
Watching Zhao Wu skillfully scald the ingredients, Zhao Er couldn't help but tease, "Hey! Fifth Brother, you're quite suited for this kind of rough work. If you didn't say so, no one would guess you're a guard."
Zhao Wu wasn't angry when he heard his teasing. Instead, he said smugly, "This proves that I'm good at doing things. If you were to do it, you might not do it as well as me. The master must have seen this advantage of mine, which is why he sent me to help Miss Yun."
After arguing with Zhao Er, Zhao Wu's already exhausted body instantly felt much better.
It was still early, and the sun had not yet completely set, but the large amount of ingredients that Yun Zhizhi brought had already been sold out.
This left some diners frustrated because they couldn't buy mala tang (a spicy hot pot dish).
Seeing this, He Yang shouted loudly to the crowd: "Everyone, those who didn't get to try the mala tang today, please don't be discouraged. Please come early tomorrow!"
Watching the crowd gradually disperse, He Yang strode towards Yun Zhizhi with a smile on his face: "Boss, can we pack up and leave after these diners have finished eating?"
After a busy day, it was finally time to close up shop, and He Yang couldn't hide his joy.
Not only that, but even the four guards including Zhao Wu, as well as Master Xuanzhen and others, were staring intently at Yun Zhizhi, waiting for her answer.
She smiled and said to the others, "You can go back later, but He Yang can't; he has to stay."
He Yang scratched his head, looking puzzled, and asked, "Why am I the only one left?"
Yun Zhizhi revealed a sly smile and explained, "Because we'll be setting up a night stall here later."
He Yang's eyes widened, and he asked urgently, "Is it just you and me?"
Yun Zhizhi nodded: "That's right, the two of us are enough."
He Yang thought she was joking, and pointed to the empty plates not far away, "We're out of ingredients, and most of the customers have left. Are we sure we want to set up a night stall here?"
"Brother Ping An will deliver the ingredients later."
After saying this, Yun Zhizhi paused, then pointed to the Lishan Academy next door and said, "As for the customers, our purpose in setting up this night stall is to sell exclusively to the students of Lishan Academy."
He Yang then realized what was happening.
It seems the boss is serious; she really wants to set up a night stall here.
Looking across the entire Chu Yun Kingdom, he had never heard of or seen anyone setting up a night stall before, but unexpectedly, they became the first to try it.
However, it's too late for the students of Lishan Academy to come out.
It seems their night market stall venture is going to be a bust.
