The grain purchased with gold coins was stored in the Xiahezhuang warehouse and then sold.
At the same time, she continued to supply Guan Yu and other grain shops in Lichong County. Rice was the cheapest in the system, but it could be sold for a good price in the market.
Lin Qixia earned a considerable sum of money without even deliberately raising the price.
Soon it will be time to settle the turnover at the end of the month.
That night, the air was exceptionally cold, and autumn rain began to fall silently to the ground.
The Xiahezhuang store on Hongfang Street was very quiet.
In the front hall, Lin Qixia leaned against the table, nervously watching He Zhilan and Wen Xuan do the accounting.
Standing beside her were a group of shop assistants, all staring at Wen Xuan with expectant eyes.
"How about it?"
After Wen Xuan finished counting, Lin Qixia couldn't wait to ask.
Wen Xuan raised her head, her expression a mixture of trepidation and excitement, and looked directly at Lin Qixia. "This month, we sold a total of 15,000 jin of grain, and our total revenue was—"
"Eighteen strings of cash!"
Her announcement immediately silenced the surroundings.
Half a day later, a burst of excited noise erupted.
"What? Eighteen? Are you sure you didn't miscalculate?" Lin Qixia asked her, her eyes wide with disbelief.
With tears in her eyes, Wen Xuan said in a trembling voice, "That's right! We really did earn eighteen strings of cash, which is a total of eighteen thousand six hundred and seventy-two coins!"
Lin Qixia only realized what was happening now, and stiffly patted Wen Xuan's shoulder: "Very good, very good!"
She then turned and left, disappearing quickly into the front hall.
The group of people who remained in the front hall behind her were all somewhat puzzled by this.
As soon as the upstairs door closed, Lin Qixia burst into a joyful scream: "Ahhh, that's great! Eighteen! Eighteen strings of cash, hahaha!"
"I finally did it!"
Hearing the commotion, the group downstairs breathed a sigh of relief.
"The boss isn't angry."
"So, this number is quite good, isn't it?"
Wen Xuan smiled and said, "Of course! The boss is so happy, which means we've all done a great job!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when she said that.
That's wonderful!
Upstairs, Lin Qixia lay on her bed in her room, a big smile on her face.
The thing I'd been worried about for a month is finally going to be resolved.
This matter concerns whether she can pay the rent and pay the employees' salaries, which means whether the shop can continue to operate smoothly.
Now, after deducting costs, her current turnover is more than enough to cover these expenses.
Therefore, Lin Qixia has nothing to worry about.
"You seem pretty happy~" A cool voice suddenly rang out from the window not far away.
Lin Qixia suddenly sat up in bed and saw a figure in red sitting on the windowsill.
The night breeze lifted the hem of his clothes, highlighting his extremely narrow waist, making him look almost unrealistically alluring.
She frowned, feeling a little resentful: they really never let anyone have a moment's peace.
However, Lin Qixia quickly managed a forced smile and greeted him politely, "You're here again, Ning Shi."
“Of course, I’ve checked everything you asked me to check before,” Ning Shi said, jumping in through the window.
"how?"
Ning Shi stared at her face and replied, "What you said is basically true."
Lin Qixia breathed a sigh of relief. "See? I am who I am, not the person you described."
"That's not necessarily true."
At this moment, Ning Shi suddenly denied her.
His words made Lin Qixia's smile turn somewhat awkward. "What do you mean?" she asked.
Ning walked over to her, reached out and pinched her chin, forcing her to look him in the eye.
At the same time, he said with a sneer and a sharp tone, "You look exactly like her. Even though all the evidence proves that you are not her, I don't believe that there is such a coincidence in this world."
"Then what do you want?" Lin Qixia grabbed his hand and tried to pry it open, but his hand did not budge.
She gave up struggling and asked dejectedly.
Ning Shi released her at this moment and said in a low voice, "I want to stay by your side until I find out the truth."
Lin Qixia, "?"
She was initially puzzled, but then she laughed in exasperation at the other person's words.
"Heh, this is interesting! You guys have your eyes on me, huh?"
First, there was the major villain Huo Yanqing, and then this assassin.
What exactly does the system want to do?
"Fine! You want to stay by my side, right?"
After brainstorming for a while, Lin Qixia was exhausted. She lay down on the bed indifferently and sighed, "Whatever."
Anyway, I'm surrounded by so much fun, one more won't make a difference.
Moreover, Lin Qixia keenly sensed that this guy probably didn't want to kill her.
He was not in danger until he figured out his identity.
Squeak—
The door to Lin Qixia's room was opened.
She turned her head and saw Huo Yanqing standing at the door.
Huo Yanqing stared warily at Ning Shi and said to Lin Qixia, "I heard some noise in your room, so I came to check. Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Lin Qixia didn't want Huo Yanqing to act impulsively out of worry, so she let him take the initiative to explain: "He didn't hurt me, he just thought that what I said before was not credible, and he still wanted to find out my identity."
"He will stay by my side during this time."
Hearing her words, Huo Yanqing's gaze towards Ning Shi held a hint of disgust. "Stay by your side? I don't think he has good intentions!"
