Chapter 151 Strange ingredients
Zhang Wei has been to Xue Ji Fruit Store for several days. He has helped Xue Yuaner in the store every day. Although he has rich theoretical knowledge in opening a store, many places are still inferior to Xue Yuaner.
Just in the first day or two, the business in the store became worse.
After many customers came, they saw that there was an extra male friend in the store, and their faces were unhappy. Even Zhang Wei ignored them when he went to greet them to buy fruits. If Xue Yuaner hadn't been to the battle himself, many of the fruits would have been broken.
A few days later, those people found that Zhang Wei seemed to be Xue Yuaner's cousin, and there were more customers buying fruits. Many people even gave Zhang Wei a few more cents to win over Zhang Wei, which made Zhang Wei laugh and cry.
Sometimes, after a day, Zhang Wei gets a lot of rewards, even enough to have a good meal in a good restaurant in the city.
On this day, Lai Xiucai in the county town actually gave Zhang Wei a piece of silver as a reward, which was so shocked that Zhang Wei couldn't speak. He thought to himself: Two pounds of oranges cost only a few cents, and the reward was only so much.
After he took the broken silver and drove Lai Xiucai away, he turned his head and stared at Xue Yuan'er and began to look carefully. He saw that Yuan'er's appearance was as crystal clear as jade, and her facial features were filled with a light and aura. Moreover, she was just Shaoling, and her petite and delicate figure made people feel particularly pity for her.
After looking at it for a while, Zhang Wei couldn't help but want to hold Xue Yuan'er in his arms. He thought to himself: Well, I think the price of fruits in the store can rise by 30%.
Xue Yuan'er was staring at Zhang Wei so straightforward. She walked towards Zhang Wei, blushing embarrassedly and said, "Brother Wei, what are you looking at!"
Zhang Wei smiled and said, "It's nothing. I'm wondering if the fruits in the store should increase the price?"
"Ah? Brother Wei, although the fruits in our store are of better quality than those in the market outside, our prices are already much more expensive. If the price increases..."
"Oh, it's okay, I'll just say it casually, hehe."
These days, the biggest change in Xue Yuaner’s life should be three meals a day.
Since Zhang Wei came, he has taken care of cooking. Although Xue Yuan'er repeatedly opposed it and was unwilling to let Zhang Wei do such rough work, she could not resist Zhang Wei and finally had to give up.
But Zhang Wei made a unique food, and he often made a few snacks. The meals were paired with three meals a day, making them very happy. However, Xue Yuan'er insisted on going out to buy the daily ingredients and did not allow Zhang Wei to go out to the fruit store, saying that someone would take care of him.
That afternoon, Xue Yuan'er gently pinched her waist and muttered, "Brother Wei, the food you cook is so delicious, and they have gained weight these days."
"Where are you? You are so fat, you look like a bamboo pole, hehe." Zhang Wei said, looking at Xue Yuan'er with his eyes.
When Zhang Wei looked at it, Xue Yuan'er turned around embarrassedly and said, "I'm really fat. By the way, Brother Wei, the soup you cooked today is so delicious. How did you make it?"
Zhang Wei replied: "The soup you asked about, I just put some bats in it, it's delicious, but there are too few bats in the secret space, so I couldn't catch a few more."
Xue Yuan'er's face changed and she hurriedly shouted: "How come there are bats in the soup? I didn't see them at all."
Zhang Wei scratched his head and said, "That bat is so ugly. I took it out and threw it away after I finished boiling the soup, so..."
Xue Yuan'er covered her mouth and ran out to the backyard, wow... wow...
After a while, Xue Yuan'er wiped her mouth clean and said with red eyes: "Brother Wei, why do you give me that kind of food?"
Zhang Wei said: "Hey, you were not quite happy when you drank it. I asked me to leave the last bowl for you. Why do you say it again now..."
When Xue Yuan'er heard this, she covered her mouth with one hand and signaled Zhang Wei not to say anything with the other. After she calmed down, she looked at Zhang Wei with a resentful look and asked, "Brother Wei, where did you come from that thing?"
Zhang Wei took his hands from his chest, grabbed a living bat with his left hand and a bloody pig's leg with his right hand, and said, "The barbecue you ate two days ago is..."
Xue Yuan'er was stunned at first, and then said, "Space..." Halfway through, she saw the wild boar legs, and ran to the backyard again.
Zhang Wei listened to a turbulent voice, and he looked depressed.
After a while, after Xue Yuan'er came in, she said in surprise: "Brother Wei, do you actually have a space magic weapon?"
Zhang Wei was stunned and said, "Yes! It's a space magic weapon. Do you know this kind of thing too?"
Xue Yuan'er was also stunned and pretended to say casually: "I heard others say this, so I just misunderstood it. This thing is extremely rare. Brother Wei, how can you install these wild game in the space magic weapon?"
"What else? I also have cumin, peppercorn, and sage... By the way, can we eat stew tonight?"
After hearing this, Xue Yuan'er had goose bumps on her body. She pouted and said, "Brother Wei, why do you use these strange things as ingredients?"
After hearing this, Zhang Wei replied helplessly: "You don't let me go out to buy vegetables, so I'll stay in the store all day long. I'm almost growing mushrooms. Besides, there are these ingredients in the secret space, so it's not useless. Or you can let me go out to buy vegetables by myself tomorrow, that's all."
"No!" Xue Yuan'er answered very firmly, and she didn't even give Zhang Wei any room for negotiation in her tone.
Zhang Wei refuted a few words, and Xue Yuan'er knew that this would not be a solution, so she had to ask Zhang Wei to wait for another day.
After waiting for another day, Zhang Wei had no objection, so the two of them decided.
The next morning, Xue Yuan'er left the store and said she was walking around Tong County to see if anyone was following Zhang Wei.
After Xue Yuan'er went out, Zhang Wei lost the lucky cat Xue Yuan'er, and the business was indeed bad. He couldn't help but laugh at himself twice.
In a corner room in the Baijia Chamber of Commerce, Xue Yuan'er sat there with her hands supporting her head, looking melancholy.
She had just returned from the elder in the sect. She had been asking the elder repeatedly, but the reply she received was still not good. The elder also blamed Xue Yuan'er for not knowing the right amount. If it weren't for Gu Qingqing's sake, the secret line near Xue Ji Fruit Shop would not have specially arranged it for her.
In fact, Xue Yuan'er also knew that because Gu Qingqing's cultivation level had increased significantly, the sect would take care of herself. Moreover, as she learned about the situation, Baixiao Sect had already resisted a lot of this trouble for her over the days.
Recently, Gu Qingqing has also come back several times, but they all avoided Xue Yuan'er. The two sisters have never met each other at once, but Xue Yuan'er also knew that Gu Qingqing spread a lot of fake news, which caused the illusion that Zhang Wei had returned to Fengjianting. However, many people did not find Zhang Wei and continued to search in the south. If it weren't for this, Zhang Wei would have been revealed long ago.
Just when Xue Yuan'er was still in the Hundred Chambers of Commerce, Zhang Wei saw that he was the only one left in the store and his business seemed to be bad. He thought that he was about to cook lunch, so he closed the store and went to the market to buy vegetables.
