Madam, please respect my profession.

Chapter 34: Really? I made it up

Mingwaqiao is not a high-end place, but rather an ordinary street with many people setting up stalls on both sides of the road, selling all kinds of snacks.

Usually, dignitaries would not bother to visit, and most of the people living here are ordinary people.

Lu Zhan didn't expect Chu Wantang to choose this place, but he liked it very much, mainly because it saved money.

Relying on the experience in picking up girls and many common jokes he accumulated in his previous life, Lu Zhan made Chu Wantang tremble with pleasure along the way, and their relationship became closer and closer.

"It's so lively here!" Looking at the bustling streets of Mingvaggio, the little beauty's eyes lit up, and she twisted her waist and squeezed in: "I want to eat that, that is a candy man, right? I ate it when I was a child..."

Lu Zhan walked to the stall and bought two exquisite butterfly candy figures, one of which he handed to Chu Wantang.

Chu Wantang licked it, and the sweet taste made her narrow her peach blossom eyes.

Lu Zhan couldn't help but tease her: "Do you know the story about the Butterfly Candy Man?"

"Ok?"

But after hearing the words "beaten to death", he realized that the matter was not simple. Although he did not understand why, he did not want to bear such responsibility.

"Sir, are you interested in trying my leeks?" the leek vendor nearby greeted.

Lu Zhan admired the stall owner's business acumen and said with a smile, "Use it if you want."

"..."

"It's fake, I just made it up."

Chu Wantang was attracted by the story, tears welled up in her eyes: "Really?"

"Ok?"

"This is real."

The breeze blows on my face, lifting my clothes.

"It is said that in ancient times, there was a beautiful and intelligent woman who was obsessed with reading since childhood. She disguised herself as a man to go to school and fell in love with a classmate while studying."

While stupid people are still worrying about truth or falsehood, smart people have already discovered business opportunities. No matter in which era, marketing is an indispensable means.

"When you can dance at the sound of cock-crow, she will treat you to sugar water."

Many of them are even married, and couples would team up to do this kind of thing, specifically targeting thieves who like other people's wives and then set up a honey trap.

"Lu Guanqi, you are so nice. My master never lets me eat these things." Chu Wantang touched his bulging belly and felt very happy.

When Lu Zhan bought the iron plate tofu, the plump tofu beauty gave a signal: "Sir, do you want to go home and try the sweet soup?"

If they meet the right one, they will send out a hint and invite the guest to their home to drink sweet soup. If the guest enjoys the drink, he will naturally pay for it.

They are different from the girls in brothels and from the brothels with business licenses. What they do is secret. According to the normal procedure, they first pretend to be vendors and examine the customers who patronize them.

"The Grand Master may feel that it is not clean." Lu Zhan said casually. According to the Grand Master's status, she is the eldest princess of the current dynasty. She has been living a life of luxury since childhood. She should not be interested in these things.

Chu Wantang looked at Lu Zhan curiously, and after he walked away, he asked, "What did you just say to the boss?"

“Guess.” Lu Zhan stuffed the tofu into her hands and said, “Eat it.”

"On the day of her wedding, the woman came to the scholar's tomb in her wedding dress to commit suicide for love. When she arrived, the scholar's tomb suddenly split open. The woman resolutely jumped into the tomb and turned into a butterfly, roaming the world."

Her mouth was full after eating so much, and she stammered, "I didn't expect tofu could be eaten this way. It's much better than the plain tofu I eat... but I still want to drink the sugar water."

"Nothing." Lu Zhan coughed dryly, "I told him that leeks can enhance male potency."

“Chives don’t need a love story to set off them. You just need to remember one characteristic.” Lu Zhan saw what the leek vendor was thinking, leaned close to him and whispered two words, which instantly made the vendor thank him repeatedly.

Leeks were very popular in ancient times, but gradually fell out of favor in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Because of their taste and smell, practitioners believed that eating too much leeks would make it difficult to concentrate on cultivation. Over time, the leek clan declined.

Lu Zhan looked at Chu Wantang's curious expression and felt comforted in his heart... Girls of this era are still the best. They don't understand anything you say. They are not like the girls he met after graduation. You can say ten sentences to every one of them.

Lu Zhan did not want to do such a vulgar behavior. Firstly, they were not that familiar with each other. He could feel that Chu Wantang's "favor" was not that kind of "favor". Secondly, he was afraid that the other party would suddenly turn against him.

Tofu Xishi's face immediately turned cold, as if she didn't expect that Lu Zhan would be accompanied by such a beautiful girl, and she went to invite other guests on the spot.

Chu Wantang was stunned: "What's going on? Why did she only invite you and not me?"

Beating to death is indeed cruel, but for the Grand Master who is born in the royal family and holds great power, it is just a means to control his subordinates. No... Beating to death? Beating to death!

Chu Wantang blushed: "You made this up again?"

"However, the girl's family looked down on the poor scholar and wanted to marry her to a powerful young man. Although the poor scholar became a county magistrate, he became sick due to worry and died of depression."

This is a vicious cycle.

……

Minghuaqiao is very long. In addition to vendors, there are many ragged prostitutes on the street.

Chu Wantang blinked and whispered, "Because I need to be calm and composed when practicing Heart Sword, I also need to be very particular about eating. I usually eat dew or spiritual medicine, otherwise it will affect my practice. I remember that once a maid brought the wrong food and was beaten to death by Master. Since then, I have never eaten these things."

"Thank you very much, sir. You are so generous!" The vendor was so happy that he almost shouted 666 on the spot.

……

The stall owner next to him was very interested: "What a touching story. I would like to ask if I can use this story for a while. From now on, you can eat the candy figures I make."

Lu Zhan took Chu Wantang for a long walk. Everything she saw was new to her. She was not as cunning and smart as she had been when they first met. Instead, she looked a little silly and cute.

This makes many leek merchants feel sad and angry. If they want to cultivate immortality, then they should cultivate immortality. It is their own fault that they cannot remain calm. Why should they blame a leek?

Once this kind of remarks were made, ordinary people became unwilling to eat leeks, because in the subconscious of many people, things that cultivators do not eat will definitely have a bad effect on their bodies. Although they are ordinary people, they also need to maintain their health.

"..."

Chu Wantang forced herself to hold back her tears.

Chu Wantang racked his brains and thought hard, but couldn't figure it out. In the end, he was attracted by the food.

Lu Zhan turned around in a hurry, pinched Chu Wantang's mouth, and said, "Spit it out, spit it out quickly!"

Before Lu Zhan could answer, Chu Wantang came over, her peach blossom eyes wide open: "Sugar water? Can I go with you? I love it."

Chu Wantang’s mouth was pinched so hard that it pouted. She held the food in her two hands, wanting to struggle but unwilling to put it down. She stammered, “I…I won’t spit it out. Let me go…I’m going to finish what I’m saying…Sister Li was wrong…”
