The Ancient City Bazaar was one of the most famous bazaars in City A.
The busiest time here was at night. In the past, Yuan Chunli had set up a stall here and sold a lot of pancakes a day. She could earn about 400 yuan a day.
She had to pay 2,000 yuan for the stall every month, and the remaining 5,000 yuan was for her husband's medical expenses. If they lived frugally, the mother and daughter could spend about 1,000 yuan a month, sometimes even less. They also had to pay 1,000 yuan a month for the security here. The so-called security fees were collected by a group of gangsters. Although Yuan Chunli was a little unwilling, she still gave them the money. After all, everyone gave it to her. She couldn't break this rule.
The remaining 3,000 yuan was Yuan Chunli's savings for her daughter's college expenses.
Her life was not bad. Although it was a little hard to run a stall, Yuan Chunli was satisfied when she thought that she could earn money for her daughter and maintain the family. But there were some changes recently. The gangsters who used to only collect security fees now asked Yuan Chunli to buy raw materials from them. But the raw materials in their hands were expensive and of poor quality. If she listened to them, she wouldn't even be able to save more than 1,000 yuan a month! Her daughter needed money for college, and her husband also needed money for medical expenses. Naturally, Yuan Chunli couldn't agree.
Therefore, those gangsters had been looking for trouble these days, making Yuan Chunli's business worse and worse. If this went on, she wouldn't be able to live a good life.
Yuan Chunli's expression was very bad. She casually tidied up her stall.
Just then, two familiar figures appeared in front of her.
"Hello, Auntie."
Li Fan bowed to Yuan Chunli. Yuan Chunli looked at them and was a little surprised. "Why are you here? Didn't you go to class?"
"I had an exam in the morning, and then it's a holiday."
Li Fan didn't even blush when he lied. Lin Yueh-hsin wanted to pinch him, but she resisted. Her mother was also a smart person. If she did anything, she would definitely be able to see through it.
"I thought that since it's a holiday, I'll come to see Auntie and see if I can help you."
"Oh, you're such a good child."
Yuan Chunli's eyes lit up when she saw Li Fan, the rich husband. "I'm content that you have this kind intention. I can't delay your studies. Why don't you take a stroll in the library or go to the amusement park? "
Lin Yueh-hsin was a little surprised. This didn't sound like something her mother would say!
"No, we're here to help Auntie," Zhang Zian said with a smile.
Li Fan said thoughtfully, "I also want to experience the feeling of starting a business, so I'm very interested in your work."
"Aiya … I, what kind of work is this … I'm just selling some stuff …"
Yuan Chunli was a little embarrassed. Compared with Li Fan's family business, her business was not worth mentioning at all.
"Any business starts from primitive accumulation."
Li Fan said seriously, "Auntie, this is the earliest accumulation of capital. Let me see how I can help you."
"Mom, I'll help too."
Lin Yueh-hsin was very familiar with the process. She put down her school bag, stood to the side, and began to help her mother prepare the raw materials.
"Ah, Moon Fairy is here?"
"Long time no see!"
The stall owners beside them greeted Lin Yueh-hsin. Lin Yueh-hsin responded sweetly to them one by one. She looked like she was taking care of everything.
"Aiya, how good would it be if I had a daughter like Moon Fairy!"
"My child's grades are terrible! If only she had half of Moon Fairy's! "
The surrounding people said one after another. Yuan Chunli's face lit up, and her mood became better.
Li Fan also followed Lin Yueh-hsin to help. His knife skills were not bad, and he was also quite familiar with cooking, so he did not drag her down. Yuan Chunli was a little surprised. She thought that these rich second-generation heirs did not know how to cook. She did not expect Li Fan's cooking to be quite good.
Li Fan observed for a while. Yuan Chunli's business was quite good. There were many people coming and going in the market, and there were many people buying pancakes from her. Yuan Chunli had also sold pancakes for a long time. Her skills were good, and the pancakes looked, smelled, and looked good. The taste was enough to attract many customers.
However, not long after, two hooligans squeezed through the crowd and walked over.
One of them, who had dyed blonde hair, slapped Yuan Chunli's chopping board.
"Auntie, where did you buy the flour, eggs, and meat?"
The blonde said with a grin.
"From the meat alliance."
Yuan Chunli looked very embarrassed. "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong?"
The blonde lit a cigarette and took a deep drag. The hooligan beside him was playing with a butterfly knife in his hand. He was quite good with it.
"Auntie, I've told you many times, haven't I? If you want to sell things here, you have to get them from our store! Are you f * cking deaf? How many times do I need to tell you? "
"The things in your store are not hygienic, and they're expensive."
Yuan Chunli picked up her kitchen knife. "Kid, let me tell you. When I set up my stall here, you were still at home making dung eggs! Don't you dare act like a hooligan. I'm paying the fees and doing business properly. I've even paid for the security fees! If you dare to run in front of me again, I'll chop you up! "
After all, Yuan Chunli had set up her stall for so many years. Moreover, she was raising a child by herself. Her character was more or less fierce!
"Oh, you're quite arrogant, aren't you?"
The blonde looked at Yuan Chunli from the corner of his eyes, and Yuan Chunli did not hesitate.
"So what if I'm arrogant?"
Yuan Chunli did not want to be bullied in front of her daughter. Moreover, this was a busy market with so many people. She did not believe that these two hooligans would dare to do anything to her!
If she lost in terms of momentum, she would really be bullied in the future!
"Alright, you're ruthless!"
The blonde curled his lips. "Nail, go!"
"Alright, Brother."
The bulky hooligan next to him walked over and took out his butterfly knife. Li Fan frowned and held a chopstick. If this guy dared to make a move, the chopstick would pierce through his palm.
But before Li Fan could make a move, the hooligan named Nail had already cut his palm!
Then his hand began to bleed. Nail screamed and splashed his blood on Yuan Chunli's stall!
"Ah ah ah, my hand, my hand is broken! Ah, ah, ah! "
This Nail did not leave. He stood in front of Yuan Chunli's stall and waved his palm, splashing blood everywhere!
Yuan Chunli was stunned. Lin Yueh-hsin was also stunned. None of them expected that this hooligan did not play by the rules. He actually hurt himself!
Li Fan saw it clearly. Although this hooligan cut himself, he did not do it ruthlessly. He did not hurt his artery. Obviously, he was an old fox who had been doing this all year round! They did not hit Yuan Chunli, nor did they smash her stall. They just wanted to disgust Yuan Chunli!
