Quick Transmigration: Leisure
Chapter 13 The Unlucky Scoundrel in an Old-Fashioned Novel 12
On the eve of the opening.
The technical aspects are no longer an issue.
The steamed buns from the other two shops were slightly inferior in appearance, color, and taste. One of them was located at the end of the street, which was quite far away.
Regarding the raw materials, Niu Dashun, the team leader, recommended a shop owned by his relative.
He wasn't just an ordinary caravan leader; he was a high-ranking official in charge of finances, and he was in Luoyang to verify the accounts. The steward was urging him to return quickly because of him.
His uncle owned a noodle shop in the East Market, which was said to be a rare and affordable business.
Furthermore, the owner has frequent dealings with various raw material shops and knows which shops sell honest goods.
If it works, this is going incredibly smoothly.
In addition to comparing prices from different vendors and finding a stable supplier, Xia Youmi also planned to visit the bookstores in the East Market to scan various books.
She and the system established principles.
If you want to scan someone else's intellectual property, you need to pay to do so first. If you are short of money at the moment, you will have to make up for it when you are able to.
She had been wanting to buy a copy of "The Book of Food" and also needed to read some books on law.
These are the two survival routes she researched.
The first rule is to curry favor with powerful figures. Show as much kindness as possible, considering both superiors and subordinates.
First of all, the eldest uncle should be working in the county government office when he returns. He should bribe his colleagues with his stomach, which might be able to play a role when she is on trial.
Secondly, cast a wide net and don't underestimate anyone who is down on their luck. Perhaps a small act of kindness like giving someone a steamed bun can bring you a little help in return.
The second point is to rely on yourself. Study the law well and immerse yourself in gangster groups.
When the blame is shifted, they will be able to clear themselves of suspicion with evidence and take up the weapon of law.
In addition, diligently manage the gangster business and strive to dismantle the enemy's forces from within.

"Since it was my nephew who introduced us, everything is easy to discuss."
The noodle shop owner, Uncle Niu, is a very straightforward person. Even though he knew that they had visited many noodle shops in the East and West markets yesterday, he did not put on airs. He simply said generously that he was not afraid of comparison!
After finalizing the order, they were also informed that a certain amount of goods ordered in the East Market would be delivered free of charge.
Once outside the neighborhood, a fare will be charged based on the distance and weight of the vehicle.
If you wish, you can contact other shops to send the raw materials directly to his noodle shop, and he will arrange for an oxcart to deliver them all at once. This way, you only need to pay the transportation fee once.
Xia Youmi and the others immediately agreed. At first, they thought of having their own family members take turns to transport the goods, but this was indeed not as convenient as Boss Niu's method.
Moreover, despite having Niu Dashun's connections, it's clear that Boss Niu is quite skilled at the unified delivery business.
Indeed, one must be "shrewd and resourceful" to "make a fortune".
The group left the noodle shop with light, quick steps.
We passed by a vendor selling candied hawthorns and readily bought one for each of the two children present. Candied hawthorns weren't cheap at the time, and none of the four of us had ever tried them before.
But Xia Youmi and Wang Shaoyi both handed the item to their mothers without prior arrangement.
They even walked ahead playfully, not watching them eat.
The two mothers exchanged a glance, acknowledging that their filial piety had not been in vain.
The bamboo and wooden products such as steamers, tables, benches, and shed pillars were all handed over to Wang Shaoyan, who remained in Zhaoguofang today, for arrangement.
He said he had already inquired at the steamed bun stall at the end of the street the day before yesterday and found out that they had all the necessary utensils!
Many of them are second-hand, and it's not difficult to pick out a set at a low price.
After finalizing the supply of raw materials and purchasing some more cloth, they hurriedly headed back.
After walking for about half an hour, we finally entered the east gate of the neighborhood.
"Mother, Aunt, I'll go help Erlang first. Little sister, you keep an eye on things."
“Okay, leave it to me!” Xia Youmi assured her.
After saying that, Wang Shaoyi turned around and quickly headed towards the wood shop.
Xia Youmi smiled and reached out her other hand to link arms with her aunt, and the three of them stood close together.
"Mother, let's eat tonight—"
"Ouch!"
"hiss--"
Accidents happen so fast. Just after promising to take good care of the two elders, the three of them fell together.
Oh no, it's four people.
A gray figure bumped into them.
Xia Youmi took a breath and checked on her mother and aunt.
Both of them had minor scratches, and she herself was in pain. Just as she was about to determine who was responsible, she noticed that the person on the ground had not gotten up for a long time.
Is this some kind of staged accident scam?
"Are you okay?"
Xia Youmi dared not move him. Just a moment before he crashed into her, she thought she saw some figures moving in front of her, probably chasing after her, but they disappeared again.
The boy on the ground was badly injured; his exposed arms had many bruises, and his hair was disheveled, obscuring his face. There were faint traces of blood.
"Young man, this..."
"Mi Niang, go and look for him. We'll stay and watch over him for now."
Xia Youmi looked around but did not see the inspector.
Not knowing the location of the clinic for a moment, and fearing that it would delay treatment, I quickly ran a few steps towards a crowded area.
Just then, a middle-aged man dressed in a blue official robe walked by. He must have seen what was happening here.
"Young man! Please help me."
"What happened?"
The two kept walking.
"It seemed like he was being chased, and he bumped into us while walking quickly. The three of us were holding hands, and when we turned the corner, we didn't notice him and we were all knocked down."
Xia Youmi noticed it, but she was caught in the middle and couldn't avoid it either way, so she could only face the force head-on.
The middle-aged man, with a serious expression, squatted down and probed.
"He is still breathing."
“We have just arrived in this area and do not yet know how to get him treated.”
"Please enlighten me, my lord!"
Wang Xiu stepped forward to inquire, anxious about the extent of her daughter's injuries while also worried that something might happen to the young man right before her eyes.
“This is the young master of the ‘Jincheng Hubing’ shop.” The middle-aged man spoke as he gently brushed his hair aside.
The system also presented images in my mind.
This child was one of the people behind that flatbread stall. At the time, he was at the very back, carrying things and not attracting attention.
There's also a scene of this middle-aged man eating at another breakfast stall.
As they were talking, two patrolling soldiers came over. One of them checked on the boy's condition, while the other borrowed a board from the side of the street.
Together they gently placed the young man on the bed, and with a shout to those present, they efficiently transported him to the clinic.
After examination and questioning, it was confirmed that his injuries were not related to Xia Youmi and the other two; on the contrary, they were all injured as a result.
However, compared to what that young man possessed, it was insignificant. He looked about eight or nine years old, not particularly thin, and should have some strength.
Xia Youmi felt like she had hit a steel plate, and was in so much pain that she couldn't catch her breath for a few seconds.
But to my surprise, beneath the tattered robe that had been removed, there were crisscrossing scars and even fresh burns!
Everyone looked reluctant to let go.
