The first step in the book is to start selling tofu

She knew the kind of person her brother was, even though she was using the filter of her biological brother.

If he remained indifferent after learning that I had been sent to jail for her, then he would definitely not let me return to my parents' home.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaohua became extremely flustered.

It was not until this moment that she began to feel panic.

Her brother doesn't want her anymore, and neither does her husband and children.

"Liu Decai......."

She wanted to make peace, she didn't want to divorce, but Liu Decai ignored her and turned and left the room.

"what!"

The screams of pain rang out again in the house, but this time there was no one to listen.

......

After seeing Feng Rui off, Lin Zhi stood at the door, looking at his receding back, thinking about something.

She knew very well that the Zhang family had already known about her making tofu.

Then this news is likely to spread. If someone hears about this and comes to forcefully buy tofu, or even uses improper means to force the family to return to the Zhang family to make tofu, the consequences will be disastrous.

This worry is not redundant. Whether in this feudal dynasty or in the modern society where she comes from, similar dark events happen from time to time. Thinking of this, Lin Zhi decided to go to Fumanlou and tell the people there about this.

As you step into Fumanlou, a familiar scent hits you.

Lin Zhi strode towards the counter without hesitation, looked at the shopkeeper with firm eyes, and told him the purpose of his visit in detail.

After listening to her story, the shopkeeper's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure. He assured Lin Zhi that he would pay special attention to this matter and promised to do his best to ensure the safety of Lin Zhi's family.

"The Zhang family will definitely not dare to go too far in this matter. But Madam Lin and her family should be more cautious in order to avoid being secretly plotted against. As for Fumanlou's competitors, let us, Fumanlou, handle them!" said the shopkeeper with a serious face.

"Thank you very much, shopkeeper! I feel much more at ease hearing you say that." Lin Zhi thanked him sincerely.

The shopkeeper of Fu Man Lou smiled and waved his hand: "Ms. Lin, you are too polite. We are partners. It is only natural for us to help each other when we encounter difficulties!"

After leaving Fumanlou, the heavy stone in Lin Zhi's heart finally settled down a little, and he felt a little relieved.

But it was a hidden danger after all, and Lin Zhi had to be on guard.

As for what the owner of Fumanlou said about doing everything he could to ensure the safety of his family, Lin Zhi didn't believe it.

They are just partners. If there is no interest involved, why should they ask for help?

If Fu Manlou also coveted the tofu secret recipe, not to mention doing everything he could to ensure the safety of his family, it is not impossible that he might even take action at the critical moment.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhi just felt annoyed.

It’s because I’m not strong enough that I have so many worries.

After returning home, Lin Zhi put these annoying things behind him.

Thinking too much is useless and will only cause more trouble. It would be better to use this time to earn more money to hire people from the escort agency to protect the safety of your life and property.

It is said that the escort agencies that were able to survive in this dynasty had outstanding integrity and strength.

Maybe, before buying someone, you can consider hiring someone from the escort agency.

I just don't know if it's expensive to hire them, so she'll have to go and ask when she has time.

While she was thinking about this and that, there was a knock on her door again.

"Who?"

Since Daya was not there, Lin Zhi had to open the door himself.

"Manager Liu?" When Lin Zhi saw the person coming, he didn't dare to push the door open completely.

His wife went to jail because of her, and I don’t know what his mentality is now.

If I hate her, why not stab myself and die?

"Manager Lin, I'm here to apologize."

Seeing that Lin Zhi was wary of him, Liu Decai took a step back and said.

"My wife's matter has caused trouble to your family, and I apologize to you here. I also apologize for hurting you. Those things on the ground are gifts for your apology."

"No, she's already been punished."

Lin Zhi was a little wary, but he didn't dare to accept the things Liu Decai brought, and he didn't dare to open the door to take them.

Liu Decai sighed and said nothing more. He put the apology gift on the ground and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, he thought for a moment and said, "My shop has been mortgaged. If Manager Lin wants to buy it, he can go to the door of my house and get the mortgage certificate to redeem it. We will move out of here today."

After saying this, Liu Decai really left.

Lin Zhi didn't hear any sound for a long time, and instead of opening the door, he closed it.

After closing the gate, she went back to the house, found a ladder, climbed up the fence, and sat on the wall.

She saw the assassin Liu Decai, who had just said he was leaving, getting on the ox cart with two children and a pile of luggage. After taking a reluctant look at the shop, he left without looking back.

Shortly after he left, a woman with disheveled hair ran out and followed the direction the ox cart left.

But how can a creature with two legs catch up with a creature with four legs?

Not long after, the woman came back.

After returning to the house for a few minutes, she also left the next shop with a large package.

"What a sin!" Lin Zhi said softly.

It seemed like she was the one who caused the family to be torn apart, but why didn't she feel any guilt at all?

She was either too hard-hearted or too evil-hearted.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Zhi came to this conclusion.

"Mom, are you swinging on that?"

Daya came out of the house and saw Lin Zhi climbing up the wall in groups of two or three.

"Wow!"

Daya, who had never seen the scenery from high altitude, was immediately fascinated.

"So lovely!"

Lin Zhi also nodded: "Yes, it's really beautiful!"

The mother and daughter were looking at the scenery from above, and they passed the time by in the process.

Fortunately, the group of students who had agreed to come for dinner did not come for dinner for the past two days after returning to the college due to the threats from the two brothers.

Otherwise, Lin Zhi and Daya would not be able to prepare dinner for so many people in such a hurry!

Under pressure from Lin Zhi's fighting power, the two hungry brothers did not dare to complain even though they came back without food. Instead, they obediently went over to help cook dinner.

"You haven't cooked yet, have you done the other work?" Dalang asked worriedly: "If you haven't done it, I won't eat yet. I'll finish the work before it gets dark, okay?"

He was talking about selecting soybeans.

We are not open today, and only tomorrow will we have to prepare the soybeans needed to make soy products.

-----------Two-in-one dividing line-----------

"No need, I've already chosen, just eat your meal well." Lin Zhi stopped him.

If they hadn't finished their work, how could the mother and daughter dare to look at the scenery so leisurely and intently?

"That's good, that's good!" Dalang breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since he found out about his family's income and expenses, Dalang has been under a lot of pressure. When it comes to making money, he dare not make any mistakes.

Erlang was much calmer than Dalang. While Dalang was grumbling, he had already started eating and quickly finished his meal.

The fourth day since Lin Zhi was injured.

The stall, which had been closed for three days, reopened.

But this time the flow of people was even less than when she first opened.

It was Zhou Daniu’s first time to officially work. He looked at the empty scene in front of the stall and felt worried about his job.

He won’t get paid yet and this stall will go bankrupt, right?

"Hey, what are you daydreaming about? Give me an egg and lean meat sausage, quick!"

"Okay, okay." Zhou Daniu's thoughts were interrupted. He dared not be distracted anymore and immediately started making the rice noodle rolls seriously.

In a short while, a freshly baked rice noodle roll was completed, and then it was almost ruined by Zhou Daniu.

"Sir..., your rice rolls." Zhou Daniu could hardly speak clearly, and his hand holding the rice rolls was shaking.

The officer saw that he was uneasy, but he had no intention of comforting him.

Being ordered to eat breakfast at one's own expense early in the morning would make everyone feel emotional.

"how much is it?"

You may have emotions, but you still have to finish what you need to do. It's your fault for meeting unreliable colleagues and being implicated and punished together.

"Egg and lean meat sausage costs four cents, plain rice rolls cost two cents, and each additional topping costs one cent..."

Before Zhou Daniu could finish his well-known speech, the officer took out four copper coins.

"Fortunately, it only costs four cents, not too expensive..."

Zhou Daniu didn't hear what he was talking about afterwards, because another guest came up to him, who was also an official.

Having been frightened once, he was a little braver this time, at least he didn't stutter when he spoke.

As Zhou Daniu prepared one rice noodle roll after another in his hands, he experienced the feeling of being busy.

Zhou Daniu is busy, and Acai is even busier.

But Acai was not nervous at all, because he knew almost all the officials who came to eat.

"Oh my god, you really don't know how to live or die. You actually dared to mess up my boss's stall. Now you're getting your retribution! Hahaha!" Acai smiled triumphantly, as if he was very satisfied with what was happening in front of him.

"Hmph, it's all because of you, kid, going to complain!" the man said unhappily.

"You almost made me lose my job, and you still don't allow me to complain?" Ah Cai flipped the egg pancake in his hand and retorted righteously, "Were you blind when you were making trouble? I'm such a grown man standing here, and you all turned a blind eye!"

"Hey hey hey! This is not my fault. I didn't take the money, and I didn't cause the trouble. I was just implicated and punished. I am just an innocent bystander!"

The official hastened to distance himself from the incident, saying that he had only suffered an unprovoked disaster and that he absolutely could not be charged with such a crime.

Ah Cai raised his head, looked at him with suspicion, and then said with a very disdainful tone:

"Oh? Really? Why do I seem to remember seeing you that day?"

The officer was speechless: "...You said we were blind, but it's you who was blind! I wasn't even at the scene, yet you still mistook me."

Ah, I just realized he wasn't there.

It should be said that none of the officials present today were present that day! Those who were present were merely innocent victims of the disaster.

These innocent people cannot be considered completely innocent. They are accomplices who knew about the crime but failed to report it.

As for the real culprits, they would not appear at this stall until the evening. I heard that the food sold at the stalls in the evening is more expensive.

"Hey, I didn't expect your cooking skills are quite good! Give me another omelet."

After the official finished eating one, he felt that the few cents he had just spent were well worth it - after all, it was such a good deal to be able to buy a delicious omelet with both meat and egg with such a small amount of money!

Just like that, the slight dissatisfaction in his heart caused by being forced to buy the food also went into his stomach along with the delicious food and disappeared without a trace.

"Isn't it delicious? Let me tell you in secret, the best ones are in the evening. The taste is so delicious that it makes you dizzy before you even put it in your mouth."

The officer looked at Acai suspiciously, but there was nothing he could do since the tone of Acai's words sounded like a demon trying to steal his money.

"Why are you looking at me like that? How could I lie to you?" Ah Cai said unhappily, "Go and ask around. Before you guys came to cause trouble, customers who wanted to eat at the stall in the evening had to start lining up at noon."

After hearing what Ah Cai said, the officer believed it about 80%.

"Then I'll change my shift and come over later to try it and see if it's really as delicious as you say."

Acai ignored him.

He can come or not. After the previous trouble has passed, the guests here won’t mind having him.

The officers still had to be on duty, so they left after eating.

As soon as they left, a few of the diners who were watching bravely stepped forward to ask the officials what they were doing there.

Upon learning that they were there to eat, the diners immediately felt reassured and joined in the buying.

"I haven't tasted this flavor for several days. I missed it." The diner said to Acai while waiting.

Ah Cai smiled and replied: "You are lucky today. You came right after the store opened and you don't have to queue."

The diners chuckled and felt that they were quite lucky.

On the day when the officials came to cause trouble, he happened to have something to do and did not come here to buy food, thus avoiding a fright.

When he came back, he happened to reopen the business...

"Are you still selling the braised rice in the evening?"

While eating the egg pancake in their hands, diners already start thinking about the braised rice in the evening.

"Open, it will open at the same time." Acai said, "But I suggest you come a little later."

The diners were puzzled: "Why did you come so late?"

According to previous trends, if you come later, the tickets will either be sold out or you will have to compete with students who are leaving school.
