Stupid

“Young master Fang will give you the silver.”

“That’s even better. You may not know this, but if he buys my soybean sprouts, I’ll give him a plate for free. If he’s generous enough to buy them, I’ll give him ten silver for a plate. After all, everything comes with a price. Why don’t you go and ask him if he’s willing to pay for it?”

The only one who could talk about ripping people off with such confidence was probably Yue Jiaojiao.

The shopkeeper looked at Zhao Zhan for help, hoping that he would say a few good words to subdue his wife. After all, no matter how much he doted on his wife, there should be a limit, right? He couldn’t just let his wife mess around outside and make enemies for him, could he?

Sensing the shopkeeper’s gaze, Zhao Zhan was puzzled. “What’s wrong? Just do as she says. My wife will not be wrong.”

Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t help but laugh. “Go and ask the money from him. You can only give him the food after he gives you the money.”

Zhao Zhan nodded in agreement.

Manager Li was speechless and couldn’t understand the duo.

Wangshan Town was a small place. In the past two years, two new inns had been opened, and his business plummeted.

Money could boost one’s courage, and reluctance could stimulate one’s courage.

The manager had Zhao Zhan stir-fry it for him as he walked out to look for Fang Tianli. “Young Master Fang, the two guests easily agreed. They knew that you wanted to eat and made extra. However, they said that the food was expensive and they spent a lot of effort to prepare…”

Manager Li racked his brain to think of a way to make the dishes sound more expensive.

“There’s a dish that I can’t afford to eat in this lousy town?” Young Master Fang smacked the purse in his arms on the table. “Tell them to cook it well. We have plenty of money.”

The shopkeeper’s face was full of hesitation. He carefully said, “Young Master Fang, you may need to pay in silver first. Ten silver, in fact.”

“As expected of the bumpkins of the village, they have eyes for money.” Fang Tianliu’s face was full of mockery. He took out one silver from his purse and threw it on the table. “Take it and give it to them.”

“Ah!”

Manager Li’s footsteps became much lighter as he held the silver.

Who would have thought that there were really people in this world who were fools?

Yue Jiaojiao took the silver and asked Zhao Zhan to keep it. Then, she gave a plate of stir-fried pork with soybean sprouts to Manager Li and asked him to serve it.

When Manager Li smelled the aromatic dishes, he felt a little hungry again.

The streaky pork slices were cut very thin, and the oil in the pot had a slightly burnt yellow surface. Mixed with the golden and refreshing color of the yellow bean sprouts, an indescribable fragrance drilled straight into his nose.

In the cave, the food made by Zhao Zhan using the crock pot was already delicious enough. Now that he had a kitchen with all the utensils, it was even more amazing!

Having gotten used to the food he made, Yue Jiaojiao felt that it was nothing special even after taking a bite of the inn’s food.

As soon as Manager Li entered the hall, Fang Tianliu’s nose twitched in excitement.

He was a glutton to begin with. He went to Willow Village today because he had heard that there was a newly opened eatery in this town that used wild boar meat from the mountains.

He didn’t expect to be deceived the moment he ate it. That was why he smashed the shop to bits and came to the Rising Cloud Inn for a night’s stay.

Now that the aroma filled the room, Fang Tianliu could feel his stomach rumbling with hunger. “Why are you so slow? Quickly bring them over right now!”
