The unlucky fake daughter was screwed by the rotten system

Chapter 143: Come to the dock for inspection in advance

After enjoying breakfast, Yun Zhizhi took Xiaotao and Zhao Wu in a carriage and drove towards the Haibei District Pier.

Half an hour later.

Yun Zhizhi stood on the open space at the dock, looking off into the distance, her face full of questions: "Why is this dock still under construction? Wasn't it said to have been in operation for several years?"

Xiao Tao quickly explained, "Miss, you must be remembering it wrong. The Haixi District wharf has been in operation for several years, but this Haibei District wharf is still under construction."

Yun Zhizhi patted her forehead.

Sure enough, this broken system was tricking her again.

She looked around and found that there were about two hundred people here, but they were all here to repair the dock.

There wasn't a single passerby strolling around.

Yun Zhizhi frowned slightly and murmured softly, "How strange! Why can't I see even a vendor's stall here?"

At this moment, it is almost time for lunch.

Normally, these two hundred or so burly construction workers have to fill their stomachs every day.

Besides, the pier was quite far from the bustling market, and those construction workers, who had toiled for half a day, probably wouldn't want to travel so far to find food.

If there were vendors setting up stalls here, selling steaming hot pancakes or fragrant noodles, it would definitely attract a lot of construction workers to come and patronize.

Zhao Wu, who had been standing quietly beside her, immediately spoke up after hearing Yun Zhizhi's mumbling.

"Master, you may not know that most of those who came to build the dock came from poor farming families, and most of them didn't have much land."

"In the past, some vendors did come to the pier to set up stalls to sell food, but almost no one bought anything. So, over time, no vendors were willing to come anymore."

"Although they received a considerable amount of silver from the government every day, these hardworking construction workers were extremely reluctant to spend even a small portion of that money on hot meals."

"Besides that, there's another crucial point I have to mention. Those vendors who come here to set up stalls, knowing full well that this wharf is far from the downtown area and that it's really difficult for them to push their stalls here, intentionally drive up prices."

"So much so that here, whether it's an ordinary bowl of noodles or an ordinary pancake, the price is much higher than in the downtown area."

Yun Zhizhi asked doubtfully, "What do they eat for lunch on weekdays? Could it be that the government is so kind as to provide them with lunch for free?"

Zhao Wu slowly shook his head and then patiently explained, "Most of them would choose to bring some food like pancakes and sweet potatoes from their homes, just to make do with a simple meal."

"Also, a small number of people will buy some cheap and filling food on their way to the pier."

After hearing this, Yun Zhizhi muttered softly: "I see."

Why did this crappy system choose such a weird place for her to set up a stall?

What a headache.

I have to think carefully when I get back. What should I sell at this wharf that is still under construction?

After lunch.

Yun Zhizhi and Master Xuanzhen were teasing a mynah bird in the back garden and teaching it to speak.

At this time, He Bo came to report: "Miss, the Qi family sent someone to our house to deliver a gift. The errand boy is waiting in the front yard."

Yun Zhizhi fed the mynah bird a bug and asked curiously, "Who are you giving it to? For me?"

Uncle He responded with a smile: "Yes."

So, Yun Zhizhi went to the front yard with Master Xuanzhen, who loved to join in the fun.

When Yun Zhizhi saw the dead big yellow cow on the ground, she was stunned.

Ouch!

Were people in ancient times so honest?

Last time, Zhao Yunjin gave her a big fat sheep.

This time, the Qi family actually gave her a big yellow cow.

When Master Xuanzhen saw the dead yellow cow on the ground, he instantly lost interest and ran back to the back garden.

Seeing Yun Zhizhi, the servant quickly told her everything the master had said: "Miss Yun, these are the ingredients the old master sent you. It's mainly to thank you for the thoughtful gift of the doll for the old lady."

He poked the big yellow ox on the ground and continued, "Ever since the old lady got this doll as a companion, she hasn't looked so crazy these past few days. Her mood has also become much calmer. She even treats this doll as a friend and keeps it in her hand all day long."

You even have to feed, bathe and dress the doll.

When he saw that scene, he was so shocked that his mouth couldn't close.

Yun Zhizhi pursed her lips and smiled, responding, "It's great that this doll can help the old lady's illness, but Old Master Qi is too polite. There's no need to give me such a big return gift."

"This isn't a big gift at all. The old master heard from the Sixth Prince that Miss Yun is a kind person, so he thought he'd give her some gold, silver, and jewelry. Since you might find it stressful, he sent the large, slaughter-ready yellow cattle raised on the farm to the Yun residence."

After hearing what the servant from the Qi Mansion said, Yun Zhizhi hesitated for a moment, then had to smile and nodded, accepting this generous gift.

After the servant from the Qi Mansion turned around and left, Zhao Wu's eyes fell on the strong big yellow cow on the ground.

I saw him swallowing his saliva several times involuntarily.

It seems he is in for a treat again.

The last time, Miss Yun carefully prepared the mutton dishes, the wonderful taste of which he still remembers and savors endlessly.

At this time, Yun Zhizhi glanced at Zhao Wu and said softly, "You can help Aunt He clean the cow and put it in the ice cellar for cold storage."

"In three days, I will have a great use for this cow."

Zhao Wu quickly bowed and said, "Alright! I'll get started right away and move this cow to the kitchen and clean it up."

After he finished speaking, he flashed and instantly appeared next to the big yellow cow.

Then, a jaw-dropping scene happened.

Zhao Wu lifted up the big yellow ox weighing several hundred pounds with ease, and then took big strides and walked towards the kitchen like a gust of wind.

After witnessing this magical scene with her own eyes, Yun Zhizhi couldn't help but feel envious.

These ancient people who were skilled in martial arts and had immense strength were truly awesome.

I guess Zhao Yunjin, as the master, would be more powerful than him.

I really admire you.

Sunset West Mountain.

Many people gathered in the open space not far from the entrance of Chunfeng Tower, eagerly waiting for Yun Zhizhi to arrive.

Last night, when Yun Zhizhi was closing her stall, she told the people who came to join in the fun that she would no longer set up a stall here.

Unfortunately, it didn't have any effect.

As the sky grew darker, some people began to grow impatient and murmured:

"Could it be that Yun Zhizhi won't be setting up the stall again?"

"Don't do that! My daughter has told me many times that if I don't get the doll tonight, she's going to cry non-stop."

"It's a good thing I didn't bring my little bastard with me, otherwise he would have cried right there in front of me if he couldn't buy the doll."

…………

At this time, Madam Qin came out with a smile on her face.

As she cracked melon seeds, she shouted at the top of her lungs, "Don't wait here foolishly. Yun Zhizhi won't be setting up a stall here anymore!"

"Let's go quickly!"

Just now, after hearing this great news from an old customer, Madam Qin was extremely happy.

Suddenly, I even felt like eating melon seeds.

Thinking about these six days, nothing she ate tasted good.
