How come something so smart still bites people randomly? Gou Dan felt a little guilty, but still forced himself to say, "Then we're even. He bit me, and I dislocated his jaw."

"Keep your voice down, is that something to be proud of?" Deng Yin said with exasperation, "You're a grown man, and you're still fighting with a dog. I won't even say anything about that, but why do you have to argue about who's better when you fight with a dog? Is it something to be proud of that you beat such a little thing?"

“You don’t understand at all!” Gou Dan said, gesturing as he spoke. “Do you know how big that dog was? It was huge. And I wasn’t on guard at the time; it attacked from behind. If it happened again, I definitely wouldn’t have been bitten.”

Gou Dan was a bit too vain; the dog he was comparing with Deng Yin was at least 1.5 times bigger than the real dog.

The best way to deal with a fool is to agree with him.

"That's a real shame. I've seen that family taking turns on duty every night recently. I'm afraid you won't have another chance to fight it."

"Sigh, what a pity," Gou Dan said disappointedly.

Deng Yin suddenly wondered if she had stunned him when she shocked him with her electric shock. He could clearly distinguish between good and bad words when he was still a system, so why now...?

......

Deng Yin has been staying home taking care of Gou Dan for the past two days and hasn't gone to the shop. She doesn't know that someone has been watching the shop entrance all this time.

The previous advertisements were quite effective. During this time, Deng Yin did nothing but feed Gou Dan water and bake cakes. He has at least three hundred cakes stored in his space.

They aim to sell out the remaining stock within three days, and Deng Yin plans to take a two-day break first.

It wasn't that she was lazy; it was mainly because the milk supply had run out.

These past two days, Gou Dan has been dizzy, so Deng Yin has been milking the cow herself. It's not difficult once you get the hang of it; you just need to give the cow a partial anesthesia before milking.

Deng Yin is very skilled with electricity.

"You go first, I'll be right there." Gou Dan clutched his stomach, looking like he was in a lot of pain.

"Okay, then hurry up."

The longer Deng Yin stayed there, the more he admired the words of the ancients.

"A lazy donkey on a millstone produces lots of excrement and urine"—this succinctly describes Gou Dan's character perfectly.

From a distance, Deng Yinli saw a crowd gathered in front of the shop. She grabbed one of the people standing on the outermost edge who had been trying to squeeze in for a long time but hadn't managed to get in and asked, "What are you all doing here?"

The person, who had initially been impatient, softened upon seeing Deng Yin's face: "We're queuing to buy a cake. This shop hasn't been open for three days, and they're limiting the quantity each day. Many people are willing to pay extra just to get a bite. They're willing to spend three gold coins for a cake that costs one gold coin. How about it, are you interested? Want to join us?"

Deng Yin's lips twitched. Is this the legendary scalper? How can he be so open about things? If you ask him his name, does he have to tell you where he lives and how many acres of land he owns?

"no need."

When Gou Dan arrived, he saw that Deng Yin hadn't gone in yet and asked her, "What are you doing here?"

Seeing that the two knew each other, the scalper decided not to make a fool of himself and continued to squeeze in.

Deng Yin briefly explained the situation to Gou Dan, afraid that he wouldn't understand if it became too complicated.

Fortunately, although Gou Dan wasn't very bright, he was incredibly strong. He led Deng Yin through the crowd and successfully squeezed to the front of the line.

Those who had just been pushed to the back were dissatisfied and began to criticize the two.

"Why are you pushing? If you want to be at the front of the line, come earlier. Don't you know what queuing is?"

"That's right, if you come late, you'll have to wait in line. We didn't come so early so you could cut in line."

Just now, it was mainly Gou Dan who was squeezing in; he absorbed all the firepower.

"Did your mother give birth to you just so you could cut in line? Don't you have any manners?"

"You look all respectable, but you cut in line to buy something. What kind of person are you? If you have any shame, you should go to the back of the line."

Deng Yin was very unhappy. These people were doing such uncivilized work as scalpers, yet they expected others to queue up politely. How dare they say such things?

"You, you, you, and you," Deng Yin pointed to the few people who had been talking the loudest and said, "You don't need to line up anymore, because even if you line up, I won't sell to you."

These people were all new to the area and didn't recognize Deng Yin. The first person Deng Yin pointed to sneered and said, "Who do you think you are, the owner of this shop? Let me tell you, even if the owner of this shop came in person today, he wouldn't dare to say such things to me. Do you know who's behind me?"

"I don't know," Deng Yin said sincerely. "But are you a dog? Always talking about your master?"

"I'm your father!" The man, used to being domineering, had never been treated like this before.

He reached out to hit Deng Yin, but before his fist could reach Deng Yin, Gou Dan stopped him.

"You dare touch her? You're not worthy!" Gou Dan increased the pressure on the man's hand, causing his face to contort in pain, but he still didn't forget to continue his threats. "Let go, let go! Do you know who I am? My master is Xu Kun, the son of the Minister of Rites! You dare hit me? You're asking for it!"

"The son of the Minister of Rites..." Deng Yin repeated these words, wondering what rank the Minister of Rites was.

The man thought she was scared and said fiercely, "If you're scared, why don't you hurry up and make him let go? Kneel for me a couple more times, and if you're happy enough, I'll let you two go."

This man is quite something. Even though he was clearly at a disadvantage and his features were in excruciating pain, he could still speak with such authority.

Deng Yin gave Gou Dan a look, signaling him to let go of him. Gou Dan didn't know what Deng Yin wanted to do, but he did as he was told.

"You're smart to know your place—"

Before the man could finish speaking, Deng Yin kicked him to the ground.

“If you want to threaten me, next time have your master come in person.” Deng Yin squatted down and looked at the man, saying, “You’re not qualified.”

The onlookers dared not say anything. Deng Yin calmly opened the door and said to everyone, "I originally prepared a hundred cakes today, but because this person affected my mood, I will only sell ten."

Ten. They initially said they'd sell thirty when it was a limited edition, but they've reduced that number so much.

But having learned from past mistakes, those people dared not say anything to Deng Yin, and could only keep pushing forward, hoping to be one of the ten.

As for those who couldn't buy it, they all had reasons to tell their masters when they got back.

Individual interests take precedence over collective interests; they will only uphold collective interests if their own interests are harmed.

Since they had already offended Xu Kun's son, they might as well offend him completely and drag his father into it as well.

Those who come to buy cakes are either there to resell them for profit, or their owners are rich and just want a taste; in any case, almost no one buys just one.

"I want to buy five."
