Chapter 1230 450 The Female Demon is Back?! Winners and Losers

Chapter 1230, page 450: The Female Demon is Back?! Winners and Losers

"what?!"

"Why!"

"We haven't played yet!"

Upon learning that the ring toss game was about to end, the children in line began to stir.

Faced with the dissatisfaction expressed by some students, Xiao Che quickly reassured them, "What I mean is that we'll close down after all the players in line have finished."

Only after hearing what Xiao Che said did everyone's emotions calm down.

However, students who line up later will not be able to participate, because the little car wants to give itself some time to play.

After all the students in line finished the game and dispersed, the scene finally quieted down.

Xiao Che and Wu Yifan collected the prizes from the ground into the box one by one, leaving a total of fifteen items.

"Sister Linlin, what should we do with the rest of these things?"

Wu Yifan looked a little tired, but her eyes were still full of excitement.

"Take a look and see if there's anything else you like." The little car glanced into the box and then said, "Pick whatever you like!"

Wu Yifan chuckled: "I want a card holder."

Xiao Che: "That's too few, pick a few more."

Wu Yifan: "I just need a card holder!"

The little car nodded and took out the last My Little Pony card holder from the box, handing it to Wu Yifan.

Wu Yifan happily accepted it, and then took out all the change from her bulging pocket.

Several ten-yuan bills fell directly onto the lawn.

"Sister Linlin, this is all the income from this morning!"

Finally, it was time to tally up the earnings, and Xiao Che was also very curious about how much money they had earned in just over two hours that morning.

Then the two of them sat on the ground and started counting the loose change scattered around.

One minute later.

"Sister Linlin, I have a total of three hundred and fifty in cash here."

Xiao Che grunted in agreement, folded the stack of fifty yuan in change he had just sorted out, and put it aside.

Two more minutes later.

The car owner also tallied up the money; the two of them had a total of 672 yuan.

“Hahahaha! That feels so good!”

Wu Yifan was so excited, as if she had accomplished something of paramount importance. This was the first time in her life that she had earned money through her own efforts.

Although she knew that all the credit belonged to Sister Linlin, it couldn't stop her from being genuinely happy!
"Xiao Fan, please wait a moment."

She hadn't finished calculating the bill for the car yet; she still needed to subtract the cost of her shopping from the 672 yuan.

After factoring in every shopping expense, her and Xiaofan's net profit should be 577.

"We earned a total of 577 today."

Xiao Che couldn't help but smile as she spoke, but she knew in her heart that they definitely wouldn't earn this much money in a different setting.

Wu Yifan: "Sister Linlin, you're so cool!"

Xiao Che: "I couldn't have done this alone without you. We agreed that you would take 20%, but now I've changed my mind. We'll split it 50/50."

"No!" Wu Yifan quickly stepped back upon hearing this, her face resolute as she said, "Sister Linlin, I don't want a single penny. Even if you give it to me, I still won't take it. No, no!"

Seeing this, Xiao Che smiled helplessly, "We agreed that we would split the profits."

Wu Yifan: "That's what you said. I didn't agree to it. Besides, you've already given me forty yuan for my wages, and a card holder too."

"Just treat me to a nice meal, Sister Linlin. I really don't need the money."

Xiao Che: "Okay, I have something to do, so I can't go eat with you right now. You can take this hundred to eat, and give me the change back, okay?"

Looking at the hundred yuan handed to her by the car, Wu Yifan smiled and waved as she backed away, "Sister Linlin, you owe me a good meal!"

After saying that, he turned around and skipped away towards the snack street.

What can the car say about this? Well, maybe next time. There will be other opportunities in the future.

However, she remembered what happened today, and she remembered Xiao Fan, the principal flutist of the Shuren Symphony Orchestra.

Now, if we deduct the forty yuan wages paid to Wu Yifan, her net profit today is five hundred and thirty-seven yuan.

Now that she's made money, she should spend a little, shouldn't she?
Happily, the toy rings on the ground were collected back into the box, and the little car, carrying the box, set off again.

She first arrived at Xixi Jewelry's shop.

The owner of Xixi Jewelry immediately became alert when he saw the car approaching.

Although the short-haired woman in front of her was her only major client today, she was genuinely scared.

"How are sales?" the driver asked the young shop owner in front of him, as if he were a friend.

The small business owner had to admit that without this female customer, she probably wouldn't have been able to open for business today.

Seeing that the shop owner remained silent, Xiao Che smiled, looked down at the items on the stall, and said, "Wrap up all the pens for me, and I'll take all the butterfly hair clips too."

The shop owner hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but smile and say, "Okay! The same price as before!"

Fifteen pens and eight hair clips, according to the price the cart just paid for the purchase, should cost twenty-seven yuan.

Taking the paper bag from the shop owner, Xiao Che took out a fifty-yuan note from his wallet and handed it to him.
Just as the shopkeeper was about to give the car his change, he saw the car turn around and leave.

"Your sister hasn't given you change yet."

"No need to look anymore." The car waved and drove away.

Watching the short-haired woman's departing figure, the shop owner was stunned again; the fifty yuan in her hand was brand new.
-
The cart then arrived at the stall selling baby monkeys.

The small business owner, as always, maintained a wary look in his eyes.

The driver glanced down at the items on the stall and asked the shop owner to load three more cars for him.

The young business owner couldn't understand why this female devil was coming back even after the ring toss game was over.

"How much are these three cars in total?" the driver asked.

The small business owner was even more confused: "Do I get to decide how much it costs?"

Xiao Che smiled and took out a fifty-yuan note and a twenty-yuan note from his bag, placing them on the stall.

The shopkeeper frowned; he couldn't understand. Then he saw the cart pull out the little monkey he had bought from him from its pocket.

The little car placed the little monkey on the stall, then picked up three toy cars and left a smile.

"and many more!"

Hearing the young boss behind him call out to him, the car stopped and turned around.

"You should keep Bubu." The shopkeeper stopped in front of the cart, holding the little monkey. He didn't know how to express his feelings. "Consider it a gift from me!"

After saying that, he stuffed the little monkey into the toy car's hand, then turned and ran away.

The little car put the monkey back into the pocket, intending to take this little monkey named Bubu home and give it to Zizi.
-
Finally, the car arrived at the stall where she bought the puzzle, but the stall owner was already packing up.

Upon seeing the car arrive again, the puzzle vendor immediately told them to close up shop, his words somewhat rude.

The car, of course, understood this and showed no sign of hostility from the other party, still smiling and saying, "Did you sell the biggest puzzle piece? If not, sell it to me."

The shop owner grew increasingly angry as he thought about it, and his tone became even more impolite: "Not for sale."

Xiao Che: "So it wasn't sold."

Small business owner: "None of your business!"

Xiao Che: "What I mean is, if you haven't sold it yet, you can consider selling it to me. You can name your price."

The shop owner chuckled: "Would you buy it for fifty?"

The driver pulled out a fifty-yuan note and asked, "Could you wrap this up for me?"

This scene completely baffled the small shop owner selling puzzles. He wondered what was wrong with this girl with the annoying smile.
His two previous transactions with the other party told him that there was no way the other party would spend fifty dollars to buy a large jigsaw puzzle from him.

"Fifty dollars can only buy one jigsaw puzzle. Think it over."

"Okay." Xiao Che nodded and gently placed fifty yuan on the stall. "Wrap it up for me."

The shop owner hesitated for a moment, then took out the largest puzzle box from behind him, confirming again, "Have you thought this through? This is only fifty yuan for this box, nothing else."

Car: "Forget it, just give it to me."

As he spoke, the little car reached out to take the puzzle piece from the shop owner's hand, but the shop owner suddenly grabbed his hand tightly.

"Wait a minute, I'll give you your change."

The price tag for this large jigsaw puzzle is twenty yuan. Although the shop owner doesn't know why, he can't actually accept fifty yuan.

"it is good."

While the shop owner was rummaging through his wallet, Xiao Che grabbed the large box of puzzle pieces from the stall and ran away.

The shop owner was completely dumbfounded and shouted at the back of the car, "Don't go! Which class are you in?!"

"Sorry about earlier, classmate!" The little car waved with its back turned and quickly disappeared into Section A of the flea market. Watching the spot where the female demon had vanished, the puzzle vendor suddenly felt no resentment; instead, he felt a little guilty for his poor attitude.

He then quickly did some calculations.

The result made him feel even worse. He calculated that if he had calculated all the things she sold to the female devil—oops, I mean, to the short-haired girl—he should have given her four yuan back according to his pricing.

Moreover, if it weren't for this short-haired girl buying his stuff, he would have only sold one puzzle set today.

"Thank you."

The puzzle shop owner, belatedly realizing what he should thank, still didn't know what he should thank, but he just felt he should say thank you to the short-haired female student.

Even though the short-haired girl was haggling frantically, it still gave him a great life experience.

He wasn't aiming to sell much today; he just wanted to experience what it's like to run a stall.

Now he's experiencing it.

He was very happy at that moment.

His happiness was not simply due to having such a real experience.
-
It must be said that the three stalls that Xiao Che visited today were indeed shops with slow business.

However, no one knows whether Xiao Che felt sorry for the three stores because they were deserted, which is why he went on a shopping spree at all three.

Perhaps it's simply because these three stores offer exquisite products at discounted prices?
So what the truth really is, only the car itself probably knows best.

But none of that matters anymore.

The car now has 367 yuan left.

She wants to keep spending!

She arrived at Section C in high spirits and spotted Wang Xiaohu and Qiao Zhizhi's stall from afar.

At this moment, there were no customers at either of their stalls.

The other shops nearby were all packing up, but the two of them were still holding on.

"Arlene!"

"Sister Linlin!"

Upon seeing the car approaching, the two men quickly greeted it.

"How are you all doing?" Xiao Che asked with a smile.

Wang Xiaohu touched his nose: "I'm definitely not as good as you."

Xiao Che Le: "Zhi Zhi, what about you?"

Qiao Zhizhi looked at Wang Xiaohu, but Wang Xiaohu looked away.

Qiao Zhizhi then replied with a smile, "I was alright, it's just a bit of a pity I didn't get to play the ring toss game!"

Little Car: "It's okay! We can go to the street together next time we have the chance!"

Qiao Zhizhi: "Okay! It's a deal!"

"Hmm!" While planning for the future, how could Xiao Che not have seen the knowing glances exchanged between Qiao Zhizhi and Wang Xiaohu?

The two are still at an impasse. It seems that Zhizhi hasn't sold enough copies (30 copies), while Wang Xiaohu's stall still has at least 15 books on display, indicating that his sales are also quite average.

What to do? The little car felt it was a bit tricky.

She thought Qiao Zhizhi had already sold enough, so she wanted to support Qiao Zhizhi's business by buying two more paintings and two more books by Wang Xiaohu as a consolation prize.

But what can we do now?

After a moment, he approached Wang Xiaohu's stall and asked, "How many books did you sell?"

Wang Xiaohu: "If we don't count the teacher's purchases, it's five books."

Xiao Che listened to Wang Xiaohu's slightly smug tone and wondered what was so smug about him.

He's already showing off after only five books; that's not like Tiger's personality.

So there's only one possibility: he might win, which means Qiao Zhizhi really didn't sell enough tickets (30).

Wang Xiaohu: "Ah Lin, how did you come up with the idea of making a ring toss game?"

Xiao Che: "I just suddenly thought of it, it's nothing. Come, let me look at your book."

Wang Xiaohu: "Stop looking, stop looking! The rest of these books aren't good. I'll give you whichever one you like after we finish!"

Xiao Che raised an eyebrow, secretly amused that Hu Zi would say something so unusual. Was he worried that she would buy from Qiao Zhizhi after buying from him?

Then, because he bought it from Qiao Zhizhi, Hu Zi lost the bet?
If her reasoning is correct, then it means that Qiao Zhizhi's gap is already very small.

"That's what you said."

As she spoke, the cart turned and headed back towards Qiao Zhizhi's stall. Suddenly, Wang Xiaohu called out to her from behind, "Alin, don't go! Take a look and see what book you want later!"

"I'll take another look later," Xiao Che said as he arrived at Qiao Zhizhi's stall. At first glance, although theoretically all the paintings left on the stall were rejected, Xiao Che still thought every single one was beautiful.

She truly deserves to be called a talented woman of calligraphy; her paintings are wonderful.

"Zhizhi, you're amazing."

"Hehe! Thank you, Sister Linlin," Qiao Zhizhi readily replied, "I'll give you whichever one you like later!"

Car: "Thank you."

"But I want to buy this one."

Little Car had no idea how interesting Little Tiger's expression was when she said those words.

“This one.” Xiao Che bent down and picked up a painting called “Morning Light” from the corner. The painting depicted an ordinary living room scene, which looked very clean and bright, and matched the title of the painting in a way that was hard to describe.

She guessed her mother would love the painting.

"Please wrap this up for me, thank you!"

"Thank you, Sister Linlin!"

Pay the money in one hand and deliver the goods in one hand.

The next second, Wang Xiaohu's screams echoed throughout Area C!
Then Qiao Zhizhi burst into a triumphant laugh, "Sister Linlin, I love you!"

"Ah Lin, I hate you!" Wang Xiaohu was really in pain!
-
Five minutes ago, Qiao Zhizhi was just one painting away from completing the task when she and Wang Xiaohu saw the car approaching at the same time.

Wang Xiaohu immediately warned in a low voice that no one was allowed to bring up the completion of the bet.

Even without Wang Xiaohu saying it, Qiao Zhizhi still has that much of a fighting spirit.

So when the car got closer, neither of them mentioned it.

Unfortunately, things didn't go according to plan!

"I've chosen!"

Wang Xiaohu gritted his teeth in "anger" and said that according to the bet, if Qiao Zhizhi sold thirty paintings, he would have to buy five from her.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang. Please keep your painting safe."

After receiving the fifty yuan from Wang Xiaohu, Qiao Zhizhi did not immediately pack up her stall. Instead, she went to Wang Xiaohu's stall and took out forty-eight yuan from her pocket.

"Find me Dream of the Red Chamber."

Wang Xiaohu was taken aback: "No, I don't need it."

Qiao Zhizhi pouted: "Whether you need it or not is your business. I just want to buy a book. I haven't even browsed around this morning. Can't I even buy a book?"

Xiao Che laughed and said, "Hurry up, you two! The food street will close in fifteen minutes. If we go now, we can catch the last wave. It's on me today!"

Qiao Zhizhi: "Haha! Thank you, Sister Linlin!"

Little Tiger got excited too: "I want to eat ten meat skewers!"

Car: "Okay, eat as much as you want."

Little Tiger quickly wrapped up Dream of the Red Chamber and asked Qiao Zhizhi, "Do you still want to participate in the lucky draw?"

Qiao Zhizhi: "Of course, I paid for it, just give me a few."

On their way to the snack street, Wang Xiaohu wailed again.

"Another black and gold note!! Are you toxic?!"

"What does this have to do with me! You gave it to me yourself, didn't you!"

Listening to the two people on the left and right start arguing again, Xiao Che smiled helplessly.

But today was really fun.

And today seems to be just the beginning.

Thinking about this made the little car even happier.
