After eavesdropping on my thoughts, my whole family changed their fate

But the fact is that there is no one in their store.

During the time when the store was closed, diners all went across the street to eat.

Jiuanyuan not only has fair prices, but also great service. The waiters never argue with customers and are always patient in answering questions.

On the other hand, in Gu Xingruo's shop, the shop assistants all have sullen faces every day, as if someone owes them money.

Seeing the bleak situation of no one living next door, Jin Yuanyuan couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahaha, there's not even a single person. They sell it so cheaply, even cheaper than ours, and the diners don't even look at it. It's so funny."

In contrast, her shop has more and more customers, and many people insist on sitting at the window, eating hot pot while watching the deserted people across the street. Gu Xingruo's shop has become a scenic spot.

The price has been lowered so low, but no one is coming.

Gu Xingruo gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, lowering the price again. She just didn't believe that there would be no customers.

No matter how good the offer is, no one comes to eat across the street.

Jin Yuanyuan noticed something was wrong. She scratched her little nose, feeling very confused.

"They've already reduced the price of meat and vegetables to half a dollar, how is it possible that no one is buying? It's really strange."

Logically speaking, it’s so cheap that ordinary people can go in and have a meal, but no one comes.

Gu An was a little scared, "The house opposite isn't haunted, is it? That's why there's no one here and there's a cold wind as soon as I go in?"

"Gu An, I think what you said makes sense!" Xiao Jiu believed what he said and shrank back to his side in fear.

Ruan Qi, who was standing behind He Linyuan, tried to hold back his laughter. "Master Gu, you don't have to guess. This was done by my Master."

The three looked at He Linyuan with curiosity, "What did you do?"

He Linyuan raised his chin proudly and said, "Ahem, it's nothing. I just spread the news about how our neighbors treated us."

Ruan Qi added, "Not only that, the young master also asked me to find someone to spread the rumor that there are bugs in their dishes, and many people have died from eating them. But I don't know how the rumor got spread, but it's getting more and more outrageous. Now many people say that the shop opposite is a shady one, so there's no one there."

The latest news he received this morning was that there were rumors that the owner of the Hotpot Xingzhou restaurant was actually a bandit leader.

They opened shops not to do business, but to trick people into their houses and then kidnap them to become bandits.

That's why it's so messy, because they are all rough, the guys always like to swear and have bad tempers.

Considering that meat and vegetables now cost less than one hundred yuan, and a hotpot meal costs less than three hundred yuan, they guessed that this must be the case. Otherwise, who would open a store not to make money? This is just a way to lose money but gain publicity. It must be to trick people into entering the store and become bandits.

If they disagree, just kill them and everything will be fine.

The reason why rumors are rumors is because no one has ever verified them.

But these are enough. Many people believed the rumor, and it spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. Now no one dares to eat across the street.

Jin Yuanyuan and the other two gave He Linyuan a thumbs up, their faces full of admiration.

"Great! It's you who came up with this idea. The three of us couldn't think of such a vicious trick." Gu An patted He Linyuan's shoulder, feeling that he was full of tricks.

He Linyuan shook off his hand and said, "Just talk, keep your distance. I didn't spread the word about bandits, it was the people themselves who thought so."

Gu An retracted his hand and once again lamented in his heart how treacherous he was.

The moves they came up with were so vicious that the enemy had no chance to fight back. Now they were no longer qualified to even compete.

Jin Yuanyuan also admired him very much, "Your trick is really powerful. The store opposite might go bankrupt in a few days."

[I will buy the store when the time comes. Jiuanyuan has too many customers and there is not enough space. I will buy the store opposite and open a second Jiuanyuan.]

Gu An silently agreed that this was a good idea.

Just as Jin Yuanyuan had expected, the shop opposite remained open but had no customers, and the shop owner still had to be paid wages, so the income was not enough to make ends meet, and it closed down after a short while.

Jin Yuanyuan took the opportunity to buy the shop opposite and opened his second store, Jiuanyuan.

Her business was growing stronger and stronger, which even alarmed the prince who was very busy with official duties.

The prince was curious about how good the hotpot tasted, so he disguised himself and came to Jiuanyuan to eat.

Jin Yuanyuan also asked the four of them to accompany her. She introduced the food to the prince and let him taste the new dishes.

"Your Highness, this is a new dish I'm going to serve in a few days, grilled tofu and spicy noodles, please try it."

The prince took a bite of each and couldn't stop eating.

"You guys have cooked this really well. Not bad. I've never eaten such interesting food before. Yuanyuan, did you come up with all of this yourself?"

These were not invented by her. Jin Yuanyuan pursed her lips guiltily.

"I...dreamed about it. I often have dreams about food. Maybe this is God's instruction. I am destined to be an extraordinary person. When I woke up, I wrote down the recipe and made it."

The prince thought of something, paused with his hand holding the spicy chips, and couldn't help laughing:

"Then you have to practice your handwriting. Your handwriting is so messy that you can't even tell what you wrote. If you write down what you dreamed about, it will be troublesome."

Thinking of Jin Yuanyuan's words, Gu An tried to hold back his laughter, and He Linyuan grabbed his legs, feeling a little strange.

Jin Yuanyuan pouted and complained about him in her heart.

[I will definitely practice calligraphy. Your Highness should pay more attention to the Crown Princess! You are busy with government affairs every day and have no time to accompany the Crown Princess. The Queen is pregnant and must be feeling unwell, but you are still eating alone here, hehe.]

The prince glanced at her and said, "Yuanyuan, why are you looking at me like that? Are you cursing me in your heart?"

He heard all the complaints in her heart.

Jin Yuanyuan turned her head away guiltily and stammered.

"No, no, no, Your Highness, you are overthinking. I respect you so much, how could I possibly say anything bad about you in my heart?"

I was just complaining in my heart, he couldn't hear me. The prince is so nosy.

Jin Yuanyuan's words gave the prince a reminder.

He has indeed spent little time with the Crown Princess recently, so when he leaves later, he will bring some food back to the palace for her to try.

These foods are really delicious, no wonder so many people come to eat them.

At this time, a waiter came in with chicken soup.

He Linyuan felt his legs were a little itchy and wanted to reach out to scratch his calves, but he bumped into the guy who was serving chicken soup.

A bowl of hot chicken soup spilled on one of He Linyuan's legs. He gasped in pain and his leg twitched.

Jin Yuanyuan stood up in shock, "Oh my God, He Linyuan, are you okay?"

The guy quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

He didn't expect that Master He would suddenly lower his head. He didn't hold it firmly, and the boiling hot chicken soup spilled on the young master. It was his fault.

"Masters, please spare me. I didn't mean it."

He Linyuan waved his hand, "It's okay, you didn't mean it, go down."

"I'm going to change my clothes. I'm sorry for disturbing your highness's pleasure."

The prince said, "It's alright. You can go down and change your clothes. I've almost finished eating and it's time to leave. Yuanyuan, I want to take a portion of the chestnut cake from your store, and also a portion of what I ate today."

After the prince left, Jin Yuanyuan and the other two hurried upstairs to see He Linyuan.
