This young man seemed to be very talkative. In contrast, Chou Yeon didn't say much. She took out ten yuan and handed it to the young man selling the potato soup, "Two portions."
Xu Yun was much more cheerful than Chou Yeon, "It smells very good. It seems that your ancestral secret recipe is not bad."
"Of course. Who on this pedestrian street doesn't know about my, Li Moran's, potato soup?" While the young man started to make the potato soup, he boasted, "It's not that I'm bragging, but in the surrounding villages, there's no one who can make the potato soup purer than me. Look at the ingredients, they're all real materials. Unlike them, they're all made with bagged materials filled with additives."
"Li Moran?" Xu Yun was startled for a moment, then joked, "Your ancestor wouldn't be Li Mochou, right?"
"Even Xiao Longnu wouldn't be able to make something like this, let alone Li Mochou." Li Moran filled a portion of the potato soup and handed it to Chou Yeon, then began to prepare a second portion. Seeing that Xu Yun was talkative, he also became talkative, "Today, seeing that the two of you are fated with me, I'll give you a larger portion. I guarantee that you will eat to your heart's content."
After Chou Yeon took the potato soup, she was deeply moved. She seemed to think of her few childhood memories. This feeling of melting in the mouth was the same as when she ate her grandmother's potato soup when she was a child. That's the taste! It was authentic potato soup.
"How is it? Not bad, right?" Li Moran handed over Xu Yun's portion and said to Chou Yeon, "It doesn't matter. Just eat in big mouthfuls. If you have any suggestions, you can tell me. Once the suggestion is accepted, I'll give you another portion for free. Hahaha, the customer is God, and the customer's satisfaction is my motivation. "
Xu Yun also tasted the hot potato soup, "Uh-huh, this taste is really good! The texture is soft, fragrant, and delicious. To be able to make potatoes to this extent, your foundation is really not ordinary. Your ancestor couldn't have been a royal chef in the palace, right? "
"Aiyo! Brother, you're too good with words! I'm so proud of you. " Li Moran was definitely an optimist. "Based on your affirmation, I will give you another one for free!"
Seeing that Chou Yeon was eating seriously, Xu Yun didn't disturb her. Instead, he chatted with Li Moran. "You look young. You must have just started your business, right? There aren't many young people who can endure hardships nowadays. Their spirit is commendable. "
"What kind of entrepreneurship is this? We're just trying to make a living." Li Moran laughed. "Nowadays, people like us who don't have connections can't make a name for ourselves if we don't do some small business."
"It's good to do this. No matter how successful a person is, it's not easy to start a business," Xu Yun said.
Li Moran said, "At first, I didn't think of starting my own business. I also wanted to be like most young people. Even if I couldn't pass the civil service exam, I would still have a career. Although I couldn't make a lot of money, I wouldn't be exposed to the wind or rain for the rest of my life. I would be stable and wouldn't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of my life. If I had a good policy, I would probably be able to buy a house at a cheaper price, then marry a wife with a better family background and have children. "
After a pause, Li Moran continued, "But a lot of things aren't so fair now. Take this exam for example. We worked hard to get into the interview, but we can't beat the people who also got into the interview with strong connections. I died in the interview for two years in a row. Look at the candidates in the interview. They all call the leaders in the interview uncle. What about us? We don't know anyone. "
"Strong ability will shine sooner or later." Xu Yun said, "Not all those who pass the civil service exam have a background, right?"
"That's true, but anyone who can find some connections through the relatives of the seven aunts and eight aunts will squeeze their heads to send gifts." Li Moran waved his hand. "I understand this matter, so I don't want to take the exam. Anyway, the new policy has come down. Those who are established will change to a contract system that signs a contract every few years. There are also tests and so on. It can't be considered an iron rice bowl."
Xu Yun shrugged his shoulders. "That's just a formality. I think you are very optimistic. Don't take the formality so seriously."
"For those who have connections, it is indeed a formality. What about those who have nothing to do with it?" Li Moran shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know if I will become someone's scapegoat. If that's the case, I would rather dream of being a potato tycoon than mix in the deep and unpredictable officialdom. "
"Being a potato tycoon is also not bad." Xu Yun grinned.
Chou Yeon had finished eating the potato soup. She didn't know if it was because she was hungry or because she missed her childhood memories too much. Her expression showed that she wanted to have another one.
"Beauty, this one is on me." Li Moran had been on this pedestrian street for more than a year. He had the ability to read people's minds.
Chou Yeon finally smiled at this unfamiliar young man. "Thank you."
"Don't mention it. I have a good chat with this brother. We will be friends in the future. If you want to eat potatoes, you can come to me at any time. We can still afford this. "Li Moran grinned.
Xu Yun felt that it was not easy for people to run a small business. He was ready to pay, but when his hand reached into his pocket, he felt a biting cold murderous aura behind him! Xu Yun was not the only one who felt this murderous aura. Chou Yeon also quickly turned around and glared.
What made Xu Yun and Chou Yeon unable to believe was that the person standing less than ten meters behind them was actually Leng Chen!
Leng Chen was obviously very surprised that he would meet Xu Yun here. He had spent a lot of effort to find information about the immortal mountain's Medical Sage, Ye Lan, and traveled thousands of miles to come here. But before he could find the Medical Sage, he had already met his enemy!
Xu Yun's calculations were not wrong. The reason Leng Chen appeared here was obviously to find Ye Lan, who had superb medical skills, to treat his injuries! Otherwise, he would not have appeared in this small city.
Although he was injured, after so many days, an Earth Profound Realm expert's recuperation was enough for him to face Xu Yun and Chou Yeon. Even if the two of them worked together, there was absolutely no hope of victory. Leng Chen, who was filled with hatred, looked around. When he confirmed that there were only Xu Yun and Chou Yeon, his murderous aura became even more intense.
Shit! Xu Yun knew that this was not good. He was also very clear that with just the two of them, it would not bode well for them. At the very least, they still needed Lin Ge by their side to be able to fight to a draw.
However, Leng Chen was already walking towards them step by step. The murderous aura on his body was also becoming more and more biting cold.
Li Mooran also followed Xu Yun and Chou Yeon's gazes and looked over. The originally bright smile on his face was more or less stiff.
"Brother, I'm sorry. I think you should pack up early." Xu Yun said indifferently. He did not want to involve innocent people. This matter had nothing to do with others.
Chou Yeon, who usually did not like to talk, also spoke up, "Thank you for the potato soup."
Li Mooran put away his playful tone and said indifferently, "I think you guys need some help."
