Chapter 93: Chapter 93

In the beverage shop.

“You eat too much,” Xiao Xiaodong looked at Xiao Xiaofan, disgusted.

Xiao Xiaofan ate so much that he burped ,”There’s no business right now, so I just happened to eat more. I won’t have time to eat when it gets busy later.”

“Business is not good today and we will be even freer later, so you don’t need to be in a hurry,” Xiao Xiaodong said.

“Those shameless people on the street know nothing but bullying people. Why do they open the same shop as us?” Xiao Xiaofan said bitterly.

“Our shop is going to take the high-end route. It’s different from those who can only fight price wars. After some time, customers will naturally come back.” Xiao Xiaodong said a little arrogantly.

Xiao Xiaofan nodded, and said, “That’s right, our drinks are delicious, their drinks are awful. What Dad makes is the best!”

Xiao Xiaodong said nonchalantly, “The fruit wine in the store makes money, as long as the fruit wine can be sold, it’s fine if the juice can’t be sold.”

Xiao Jinfeng exhaled. The price of fruit wine was a bit high. But some people still bought it. In a few days, there may be no one coming, but it wouldn’t matter if there were still 3,000 taels of silver per day.

“Daddy and Dad will need to develop new varieties again. I don’t know what kind of delicious drinks there will be.” Xiao Xiaofan muttered.

“Eat less, you have become heavier recently,” Xiao Xiaodong said.

Xiao Xiaofan patted his stomach and said, “I became very strong recently. It’s fine if I eat more. It won’t cause my spiritual energy to stagnate, and everyone says I’m cute like this.”

Xiao Xiaodong curled his lips and said, “They are just flattering you and you really believed it.”

Xiao Xiaofan was unconvinced, “No! People really mean it.”

Xiao Xiaodong rolled his eyes and said, “A little kid is just a little kid. He will believe everything people say.”

“Brother, you’re not much older than me!” Xiao Xiaofan argued with reason.

……

Xiao Jinfeng looked at Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. When the sound of footsteps came, Xiao Jinfeng subconsciously frowned and looked towards the door. Seeing the visitor, Xiao Jinfeng suddenly had complicated feelings, “Mother, what are you doing here?”

Wang Lu smiled at Xiao Jinfeng and said, “You have a nice shop.”

Xiao Jinfeng forced a smile and said, “It’s all right.”

When Xiao Xiaofan saw Wang Lu, he hurriedly wiped his mouth and stood behind Xiao Xiaodong like he was facing an enemy. Peeking at Wang Lu from behind Xiao Xiaodong’s back, Xiao Xiaodong blinked his big black grape-like eyes.

Wang Lu looked at the space ring on Xiao Jinfeng’s hand, “You bought a space ring. It seems that business is really good.”

Xiao Jinfeng reluctantly smiled. When Xiao Qingyan entered the Academy, his mother gave him a space ring in order to reward him. When he was in the mercenary team, he often had to give up his prey because of the limited space in his storage bag. Xiao Jinfeng also wanted to have a space ring, but unfortunately, he never had this wish granted.

The one on his hand was given to him by Xiao Jingting, who said that it was more convenient to have a space ring for business. So he forcefully gave him one, saying he got two when he bought one and this was the free one.

The store was making a lot of money now, however, Xiao Jingting’s way of spending money was really not applaudable.

“Jinfeng, looking after this shop, you waste a lot of your training time,” Wang Lu said.

Xiao Jinfeng suddenly raised his vigilance, not because he wanted to guard against his mother, but because Wang Lu was too biased and he won’t be able to defend himself if he didn’t. If Wang Lu asked this, she probably wanted someone else to look after the store.

The income of this shop was indeed high. Wang Lu was biased towards Xiao Qingyan, and the pocket money given to Xiao Qingyan a month was only a few thousand taels of silver. However, the business of this shop was on the right track and could earn more than 100,000 taels of silver per month.

“This son knows that his qualifications are limited and he was poisoned before. So he doesn’t dare to expect any great progress in his cultivation. At present, he just wants to do something practical and earn some silver to support his family. The workload of the shop is not heavy, I can work while cultivating. Mu Shuyu is busy in the fields every day. If big men become idle and do nothing at home, people will start to gossip,” Xiao Jinfeng said.

When Wang Lu heard this, she was unable to respond for a moment, “Is there a shortage of people in the store? Why are they both helping out at the shop? Mother can arrange a few people to help you.”

Xiao Jinfeng hurriedly said, “In the beginning, there was a shortage of people, but now this is no longer the case. There are many shops popping up in town, and some of them are deliberately decorated just like our shop. Our shop has a great reputation and many customers, and people from other cities also come to buy. Those who don’t know how to distinguish which one is ours will look for a shop that has children working in. Xiaodong and Xiaofan are now our store’s movable signboards.”

Wang Lu nodded and said, “Is that so?”

Xiao Jinfeng looked at Wang Lu and said, “Mother, since you are here, take the spiritual wine with you.”

“This spiritual wine is brewed by you. I heard that it earns money quickly,” Wang Lu asked.

Xiao Jinfeng said calmly, “There is not much money. When brewing spiritual wine, we need to add some miraculous elixirs ordered from outside at a high price. Although the price is high, so is the cost, so there is not much profit.”

Wang Lu nodded and said, “So it’s like this.”

Wang Lu sat for a while, chatting with Xiao Jinfeng and then left with spiritual wine.

Xiao Xiaodong looked in the direction of Wang Lu’s departure, and seeing she was gone, he said, “Grandma, this time, she came because she wanted dad to transfer the store and when she was talking about sending some help, it was probably about inserting some spies.”

Xiao Jinfeng glanced at Xiao Xiaodong and said, “Don’t talk nonsense.”

“Uncle’s wife is the lady of the Zheng family, isn’t it? I think I saw the Zheng family also opened a beverage shop. However, they did it in secret and it is not under the name of the Zheng family. Their business is not good at all.” Xiao Xiaodong was full of disdain.

Xiao Jinfeng rubbed Xiao Xiaodong’s head, “You! It’s not just a deduction, when did you get the news?”

“I have a way!”

“Those brats?” Xiao Jinfeng asked. He had noticed that Xiao Xiaodong had a good relationship with several beggars.

Xiao Xiaodong nodded and said, “Second uncle is really smart.”

“I saw Great Aunt the other day,” Xiao Xiaofan said.

Xiao Jinfeng looked at Xiao Xiaofan and said, “You saw your great aunt?”

“Yes! She stood at the crossroad for a while and disappeared again,” Xiao Xiaofan said.

Xiao Jinfeng, “…”
