Chapter 138 Three Hundred Yuan a Bottle



"Selling pepper, star anise, pepper oil, chili powder, and chili oil!" she shouted as she sat down on the ground.

As soon as she finished speaking, a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.

In her previous life, she was traveling incognito when she was attacked by thieves. She and the prime minister ended up in the countryside without a single penny.

At that time, she was under the prime minister's surprised and puzzled gaze, just like a shop vendor, loudly hawking her wares.

Other princes and princesses were pampered from a young age, but she was different. Her mother was of humble status, and from birth, she experienced the harsh realities of life.

Before, being able to sell anything was already quite an achievement.

"You said you sell chili powder and chili oil here?"

A woman carrying a child suddenly walked up to her, looked at the items on her stall, and asked a question.

“Yes, it’s authentic.” She nodded and fiddled with the glass bottles on the stall.

Her seasonings will only be more delicious and flavorful than any currently synthesized seasonings.

Upon hearing this, the woman squatted down, looked at the items, and asked, "How much does it cost?"

"Three hundred yuan a bottle."

The glass bottles on her stall are very small, but even such a small bottle can sell for 500 yuan on the market now.

Right now, we're operating on a low-profit, high-volume model, hoping to recoup the cost of our trip there and back.

"Really? So cheap? You can't be selling fakes, can you?" The woman's eyes widened. She had only asked on a whim, but she never expected it to be so cheap!

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun didn't say much. She simply took a bottle of chili powder, opened it, picked up a disposable spoon, scooped out some, and handed it over.

"Let me, let me try it?" The woman looked at the spoon being held in front of her with some disbelief.

Even such a small spoonful costs a lot of money!

"Hmm." Mu Qingyun nodded. It's normal to have doubts about setting up a stall; just state the facts.

As if afraid she might change her mind, the woman quickly opened her mouth and bit the spoon.

The chili powder was very authentic, but the woman ate it too quickly, and the chili choked her throat, causing her to cough repeatedly.

"Is it authentic?" Mu Qingyun looked at her face and neck turning red from choking, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.

"Authentic, authentic, fragrant and spicy!" The woman gave a thumbs up in admiration and immediately pulled out her phone. "Here, I'll have a bottle."

Upon seeing this, she quickly opened her contact number, which contained a QR code for receiving payments. She could transfer the money with just a scan.

When she first learned about this payment code, she was quite surprised and impressed, amazed that no silver was needed here, and the money had become a completely virtual number.

Her phone beeped with a notification sound, and she looked at the 300 yuan in her mobile wallet, feeling happy.

Now we have the money for the round-trip transportation, right?

The onlookers watched the scene with amusement, and many of them were eager to join in, walking towards her.

"Can I have a taste?" A young man carrying a briefcase walked over. He looked at the chili powder and then at the Sichuan peppercorns next to it. "If it's authentic, I'll take a whole bottle of these."

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun immediately picked up a disposable spoon, scooped out a spoonful, and handed it over without saying a word.

After tasting it, the young man quickly swiped his wallet.

I gave him a bottle of each; her prices were all the same, 300 yuan a bottle.

Okay, so I've made back the money I spent on the glass bottle and the disposable spoon.

Once someone started, the other onlookers immediately followed suit and rushed over to her side.

Just kidding, there's only a little bit left on this stall. If you're a step slower, it'll probably be gone!

Thus, Mu Qingyun encountered an unprecedented crowd, a scene comparable to when she was still a prince and received merits, when she was surrounded by a throng of officials after court!

Three hundred yuan a bottle was an exorbitant price back then, but here it's a rare bargain.

When it came to the last few bottles, people started pushing and shoving. Some held up their phones and said they had already paid, while others held onto the glass bottles tightly, saying they had already told them.

Mu Qingyun worked hard to maintain order, and it took her quite a while to figure out their order of precedence.

Those who bought it were overjoyed, looking forward to enjoying a delicious meal with the condiments at home, while those who didn't buy it were furious, their eyes filled with a look that seemed to want to devour her whole.

"Please don't crowd. I'll be back here selling these things at this time tomorrow. Anyone who didn't get any can come back tomorrow; there will be plenty."

After calming down those who hadn't managed to buy anything, Mu Qingyun picked up the items from the ground and put them all back into her storage bag.

She only took one-fiftieth of what was displayed today.

Unexpectedly, just this little bit of stuff sold for 9,000 yuan.

She's made a fortune! At this rate, not only will she get a castle back, but she might even be able to invest in something else, like opening a shop.

Overjoyed, she booked a hotel on her phone.

After selling out, she had nothing else to do, so she decided to stroll around the streets.

The modern streets were filled with things she had never seen before: all sorts of different foods and novel gadgets.

"Yun Jie?"

A familiar voice suddenly came from behind her. She turned around and saw a person wearing a beige trench coat, sunglasses, and a mask.

She's quite tall and has a good figure, but you can't see her face clearly.

"Who is it?" She raised an eyebrow, looking at the person, her mind racing, trying to figure out who knew the name "Yun Jie".

The man in the beige trench coat stepped forward, took off his sunglasses, and revealed his eyes.

Those eyes...

Mu Qingyun narrowed her eyes slightly. Oh, I can tell, it's Su Qiluo.

"What are you doing here?" she asked, puzzled.

Upon hearing this, Su Qiluo shook her head helplessly, "I was originally going to find my beloved, but he wasn't there, so I couldn't find him."

He couldn't help but smile when he thought of the admiring look in Xiong Ruoyou's eyes and the occasional glances Fan Xuanye gave him.

If these two knew that the Su they had spent so much time with was actually Su Qiluo, I wonder what kind of expression they would have.

"So you came here to relax?" Mu Qingyun looked at him, raising an eyebrow. "You've been back for quite a while, why are you only looking for someone now?"

“Some things have been delayed.” He lowered his head. “Those things are indispensable to me, and I can’t get away from them.”

"Oh," she replied briefly, then turned to look at something else.

Su Qiluo watched her stare at a takoyaki stall and guessed that she might want some.

But after hesitating for a moment, he still didn't go and buy it for her.

He already has someone in his heart, so he can't do anything ambiguous, even though Yun Jie is already considered his good friend.

I thought Yun Jie looked familiar before, but when I went back to the military academy and watched the live broadcast, I realized that Yun Jie actually looked a lot like Mu Qingyun.

The moment the truth about the familiarity came to light, he made up his mind that he must keep his distance from Yunjie from now on.
