The first step to a rich country is to get rich first and then get richer

Arriving at the restaurant, Lan Ning didn't waste any time and asked Xiao Wu to bring him three kinds of brushes, large, medium and small, and began to paint on the tables and chairs that were all painted white.

Her hands are very fast, and she draws with great skill, as if she has done it countless times.

With just a few strokes, a lifelike plum tree appeared on the table. The looming trunk and branches, and the plum blossoms blooming on the corners of the table make people want to get closer and can't help but reach out to touch it.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't touch it. It's just been painted. It's not dry yet. If you smudge it, you'll have to repaint it again."

Lan Ning was very busy. He had to paint here and keep an eye on other people who wanted to cause trouble.

"Don't touch it."

The shopkeeper had spoken, so how could these people dare to reach out and touch it? They could only put their hands behind their backs and stare at the table without blinking, wanting to see whether the flowers on it were painted or real. How could they be painted so realistically? How could it look like there was a real plum tree on it?

Seeing that the little girl is so good at drawing? The shopkeeper had a lot of questions to ask, but seeing that she was very busy, he could only hold back the words, and he looked like he was constipated.

Although Lan Ning is small, he draws very quickly.

She is very good at Chinese painting and knows how to use the simplest strokes to achieve the most realistic effects.

So even though there was such a large restaurant to paint, fortunately the paintings were simple, just some flowers, plants and trees. It only took most of the day and the entire restaurant was completely renewed.

A shopkeeper, three chefs, a waiter, and a fireman watched the restaurant change little by little. Now that it has been completely painted, they still can't believe that this is the shabby restaurant from before.

Yes, it was shabby. Even though they had thought their restaurant was particularly tall and noble before, after being dressed up by this little girl, they all felt that the restaurant was really too shabby.

Lan Ning sat on a stool to rest, while the other six stood outside the door, watching everything in the restaurant with their mouths open for a long time.

"Okay, that's enough. Next, we just need to wait for the paint to dry before we can make other preparations."

As soon as he finished speaking, a person hurriedly ran in from outside the door.

"Lan girl, Lan girl, Brother Ye, is Lan girl here?"

Seeing that the usually steady Third Brother was particularly abnormal today, Shopkeeper Ye also restrained his emotions.

"What's going on? What happened?"

"Uncle Chen, I'm here, what's wrong?"

"Thugs, those thugs are coming to us."

Hearing Chen Tian's words, Lan Ning, who had been leisurely and contented just now, suddenly felt his heart tighten.

Oh no, she forgot about this matter. Two days have passed and today is already the third day. Those thugs should be showing up.

"Don't be anxious, Uncle Chen, don't be anxious."

Lan Ning quickly calmed down and thought about countermeasures. She didn't know whether the two beggars she found had successfully spread the news and let the county magistrate and others know the news she wanted to spread.

She didn't have time to inquire about it at the moment, so she could only leave it to someone else. So she turned her attention to Manager Ye.

"Uncle shopkeeper, I would like to trouble you to do me a favor, okay?"

The shopkeeper wanted to refuse, but after looking at the obviously restless third brother and the little girl who was not even as tall as his legs, he nodded.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

"Paper, first help me get two pieces of paper and a pen. I'll draw two portraits for you to look for these two people, and then help me get some information."

"I'll get it."

Xiaowu reacted quickly. As soon as Lan Ning finished speaking, he turned around to get paper and pen.

When Lan Ning held the brush dipped in ink in his hand, he felt his hands shaking a little.

To be honest, she was a little scared at the moment and didn't want to involve others too much in her affairs, but there was no point in being afraid, as she would have to deal with this matter in the end.

I took a deep breath, closed my eyes tightly, and calmed myself down a little.

I grabbed my right wrist with my left hand to stop my right hand from shaking. No, it was still shaking, but not as violently.

With a few scribbled strokes and some embellishment of details, two lifelike portraits were drawn.

"Uncle shopkeeper, these are the two beggars, not very old, please help me find them.

Please help me find out what kind of news they are spreading.

Can I borrow 200 coins from you? If they spread the news successfully, I will give them the 200 coins. "

The shopkeeper nodded readily. Since he had agreed to help the girl, he would not refuse.

The shopkeeper agreed, and Lan Ning felt relieved. He pulled Chen Tian and hurried to his stall. The thugs were still waiting for them at the stall.

While rushing there, Lan Ning was thinking of countermeasures in his little head.

The distance was not too short but she felt it was going very fast, and before she could think of any way to delay, she had arrived not far from the stall.

Looking at these thugs taking the knife that Chen Tian used to cut pork and chopping it on the table, and looking at the deep and shallow chop marks on the table, the thugs next to him laughed non-stop.

Chen Tian, ​​who was far away, felt extremely distressed and wanted to rush forward to save his stall, but his big hand was held by a small, somewhat cold hand.

"Uncle, don't be impulsive. I will find a way to compensate you for the table."

These words brought back Chen Tian's sanity which was about to be lost.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a table, if it's not broken it can still be used."

The gangsters who were laughing there also saw the two people not far away.

"Wow! You are finally back. I thought you didn't dare to come back."

The gang leader held the knife in his hand, pinched the handle, and shook it upwards. His ruffian look made it clear at a glance that he was not a good person.

"Come here, why are you standing there? Are you scared and have you decided to hand over the recipe?"

The gang leader spoke in a very cold tone, but when they heard it, they knew that his words were full of ill intentions.

Lan Ning took a deep breath, gave herself courage, raised her feet and took the lead to walk towards the stall.

"Uncles, we were just talking about where we wanted to find you, and here you are."

What interrupted the terrifying atmosphere was the soft and smiling voice.

Seeing that the little guy could actually laugh, the gang leader couldn't help but look up to him. It seemed that he had already prepared a response policy. However, for beggars from the country, they probably had no choice but to hand over the prescription.

"Since you want to find us, it means that your recipe is ready. Bring it here."

The kitchen knife was placed on the table, and the gangster spread his palm upwards, revealing a long scar.

He stared straight at Lan Ning without moving his eyes away, wanting to see the fear on the little thing's face when it saw the hideous scar on his palm.
