Saying that, Shopkeeper Zhang laughed.
"Shopkeeper Zhang is too polite."
Then Lin Xiaoye took the cup of tea and drank a sip as she looked at Zhang Yusheng on the side.
It turns out that he was Shopkeeper Zhang's son. This father and son pair are honest people, hence it would be nice if she could cooperate with them.
Zhang Yusheng couldn't stand it anymore and said,
"Miss Lin, since you and my father are old acquaintances, regarding the matter about Jishi Hall..."
Lin Xiaoye smiled: "We are now at your herbal medicine shop, outside matters will naturally have nothing to do here."
Zhang Yusheng was momentarily taken aback, then he looked at Shopkeeper Zhang and nodded comfortably.
At this time, Shopkeeper Zhang smiled politely: "Miss Lin, I heard you wanted to cooperate with us?"
Lin Xiaoye said: "Just now, I asked Zhang Yusheng to explain the reason for your cooperation with Jishi Hall. I think Shopkeeper Zhang felt uneasy after doing this kind of thing?"
She saw Shopkeeper Zhang frown and sighed: "What Miss Lin said was true, since the opening of Jishi Hall, small businesses in town like our herbal medicine shop have been worsening day by day. If we hadn't cooperated with them, I'm afraid our shop would have already closed down."
After speaking, he immediately remembered something and quickly added: "The scorpion you sold last time was also sold to them. With just my small herbal medicine shop, how could I afford to pay such a high price?"
At this moment, Shopkeeper Zhang stopped talking about that matter and started explaining to Lin Xiaoye.
Lin Xiaoye nodded. She still believed in Shopkeeper Zhang's character, so she would naturally believe his words.
She turned to look at this herbal medicine shop.
It was no wonder that the last time she came, there were no doctors here. Today, she had been here for so long, but no one had come to buy medicine.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoye quickly said, "If Shopkeeper Zhang trusts me, then from now on, you can cooperate with me."
Upon hearing her words, Shopkeeper Zhang and Zhang Yusheng immediately raised their heads and looked at her.
Zhang Yusheng quickly asked: "What does Miss mean?"
"Even though there are a lot of herbal medicine shops in this town, they are all similar in nature. They are all just bitter medicine, but Jishi Hall is different from all of you. Everyone would still choose to go over there even if there are new opened shops. But if we were to prepare something different, will we still be afraid of not being able to make money?"
Shopkeeper Zhang immediately asked, "But how can there be a fresh way to treat illnesses?"
Lin Xiaoye smiled, "Has Shopkeeper Zhang ever heard of diet therapy?"
Shopkeeper Zhang frowned and thought for a while. "Diet therapy is a culture with a long history, so I naturally know of it. Could it be that Miss wants to use diet therapy?"
With that, Zhang Yusheng said: "But Father, we don't have much knowledge in diet therapy."
Lin Xiaoye said, "You guys don't have it, but I do."
On the other side, A'Lan turned around the house. She looked and looked. Afterwards, she pursed her lips.
"Such a small house and even this table and stool are all worn out."
She mumbled a few words and looked outside at Huo Li. She couldn't help but sigh.
"Ai, if you had a little more money, I wouldn't have to worry so much!"
"Old Huo, is Old Huo here?" A voice came from outside.
Huo Li was sharpening his knife in the yard when he heard someone shouting. He took two steps forward.
The person who came was Old Hu's wife. Since the last time Lin Xiaoye had saved her son, whatever happened, the first person she could think of was Lin Xiaoye.

When Old Hu's wife saw Huo Li, she quickly asked, "Wei, Old Huo, is your wife here? My Mother-in-Law suddenly feel ill. We have already consulted the doctor, but I'm still worried to death. Didn't your wife know medicine? I'll have to trouble her to come with me."
Old Hu's wife sounded anxious.
Huo Li said, "She's not here."
Old Hu's wife panicked, "What…what should we do now? My Mother-in-Law is currently in a very difficult situation."
Old Hu's wife became anxious for a while before she quickly said, "Then alright, if your wife comes back, let her go over my place."
"En." Huo Li replied softly.
He didn't know much about medical stuffs and there was nothing he could do to help.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, these words from Old Hu's wife were heard by A'Lan.
"That ugly monster knows medicine?"
Why hadn't she heard of it before?
She then saw Huo Li walk past her as she was thinking.
"How about I call you Brother Huo from now on?"
A'Lan looked at Huo Li shyly.
Huo Li immediately frowned.
Wasn't she Lin Xiaoye's aunt?
It was likely that in A'Lan's eyes, seniority wasn't as important as this handsome man in front of her.
At the same time, Little Mochi ran over and shook Huo Li's leg. He snorted and looked at A'Lan with an anxious expression.
Huo Li nodded. "Alright, I understand."
Huo Li held Little Mochi in his arms and glanced at A'Lan.
"I'm taking Little Mochi out."
A'Lan immediately replied, "Alright, then I'll go with you guys. I don't know many people here and since I planned to stay for a long time, so if Brother Huo doesn't mind, can you take me for a walk around the vicinity?"
Huo Li's lips moved as he glanced at her coldly. He didn't plan to say anything and just walked away in an instant.
Seeing that Huo Li didn't refuse, A'Lan followed him happily.
At this moment, Lin Xiaoye and Shopkeeper Zhang had discussed their plans and she immediately received Shopkeeper Zhang's appreciation.
"Miss Lin, I never thought that you would have such profound knowledge. It seems that one truly cannot judge a book by its cover."
After he finished speaking, Shopkeeper Zhang suddenly felt that something was amiss. He hurriedly said, "No no no, what I mean is, Miss Lin is even more of an ordinary woman."
Lin Xiao smiled, "Shopkeeper Zhang, there's no need to be polite. With my current appearance, I'm already used to it."
Zhang Yusheng was stunned: "Miss Lin has a good temperament."
He didn't expect that a country girl would be so open-minded.
Seeing Lin Xiaoye like this, Zhang Yusheng suddenly felt that Lin Xiaoye wasn't as hateful as she had been just now.
"Alright, since both of you also agree with my plan, then we should strike while the iron is hot. Let's settle this matter now." Lin Xiaoye said.
She had already been out for the entire morning. If she didn't go back now, there would be no one left to take care of Little Mochi.
Shopkeeper Zhang and Zhang Yusheng looked at each other, then Shopkeeper Zhang asked: "What does Miss Lin mean?"
Lin Xiaoye said, "Since we're cooperating, then let's just work out the terms for our cooperation."
Shopkeeper Zhang's eyes immediately darkened.
A businessman is a businessman after all. When it comes to matters of interest, it's not that easy to talk about them.
However, with how tempting her conditions were, she doesn't believe that Shopkeeper Zhang would be able to put the meat in the bowl for someone else to eat.

Ardent Tears
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge.] Youth is something to be treasured, for it is the foundation upon which all experiences are built. It is also a time when some may Awaken as Ardents or Stoics; individuals who can draw great power from the Resonance of emotions. Rowan’efrii is one such youth, but at what cost? This is the story of her journey; of love and loss, friendship and isolation, fortune and tragedy. What can a girl do when she is faced with all the wonders and horrors that the world has to offer? Live! In the Kingdom of Særis, a group of renegade lords are seeking to enslave young adolescents to forge them into Ardents and Stoics. Those that fall will be used in a war against the Azure King. Will they break Rowan, or will they turn her into the very thing that will destroy them. Ardent Tears focuses heavily on all kinds of relationships including: romantic, familial, platonic and sexual. The MC is a clear example of this, especially as she is poly. Because of this, I gave the story my own Poly Tag. This won't be anything like a Harem story and it is being written by someone who is polyamorous (me). There is also going to be several LGBT themes throughout which can't be represented through Tags. Ardent Tears is now on Top Web Fiction. If you like the story, I'd appreciate it if you give me a boost by following this link and pressing boost. Massive thanks to KrazeKode for the amazing cover art. And special thanks to MelasD and Selkie for the shout-outs.
