My restaurant connects to the demon realm, and I've become incredibly wealthy!

Chapter 20. Making Money Again
Black Dragon frowned; he didn't like people saying that Yao Yao was immature.

Yao Yao is the best girl in the world.

“Yaoyao is not like those female demons, she is very good.”

And they're also very cute.

In his heart, Yao Yao was the best and most perfect woman he had ever met, and no one could compare to her.

Feng Jin pursed his lips. He had never seen what a human female looked like. After all, they were all females. How could they be any different from the female demons?

In his mind, females were arrogant, unreasonable, and particularly annoying.

He didn't like the females, but he compromised for the sake of his good brother.

"Alright! If you want me to forge weapons, I need to meet the person first! Ask her what her requirements are, and besides, the weapons a human uses are different from the weapons used by our demon race. I need to go to the merfolk to get some things."

Black Dragon nodded. "You probably won't see her tonight. She's very tired and has already gone to sleep."

"Then I'll come again tomorrow." Feng Jin picked up her teacup and took a sip.

A surge of rich spiritual energy entered his meridians, causing him to let out a comfortable sigh.

The two of them stayed at the restaurant all night.

The next day.

Bai Hu Yaoyao slept soundly; she had never slept as comfortably as she had last night.

The soft bedding made me feel warm all over.

"Huh? What's this?" White Fox Yaoyao stood up and rolled a red ball out of her arms.

The red beads felt warm in her hand, and the warmth spread throughout her body.

Touching the soft bedding on the bed, Bai Hu Yaoyao's sluggish mind finally started working again.

She remembered that it was Heilong who carried her to the room last night, and he was the one who changed the bedding.

Yesterday she was so tired she couldn't move; she really didn't have the strength to even move a finger.

Her long-standing habit of vigilance as a mercenary remained, and she only felt at ease after learning that the man was Black Dragon.

She knew what Heilong said when he hugged her, so she wasn't completely oblivious.

The white fox Yaoyao couldn't help but feel melancholy when she thought of the black dragon's handsome face and imposing figure.

"That black dragon is actually a gentle man."

He did not take advantage of the situation.

Just as Elder Shen said, the men of the demon race all respect women.

During her years as a mercenary, she did dangerous missions with many men, but none of them were good people.

They do not respect women.

They would also see her as a despicable person.

They often eyed her body with lustful intent.

He was blamed by those jerks for a failed mission.

That night, several men drugged her, rendering her unable to resist, and took turns venting their lust on her.

It's one thing for her to voluntarily satisfy her physical needs with a handsome man, and it's a completely different concept from being drugged and having sex with someone.

At that time, she hated it!
It turned out that the world was full of malice towards her.

That night, she was covered in blood, but she gritted her teeth and survived.

In the end, she personally tortured and killed the men who had violated her.

They cut off their manhood and fed it to wild dogs.

From then on, she became the feared Queen of Mercenaries.

At that time, she knew that men could never be relied on, and that she could only rely on herself.

If she had met a man who was even half as good as Black Dragon back then, someone willing to lend her a hand in that dark and hopeless world, perhaps she wouldn't have struggled in that abyss for so long.

There's no point in thinking about those things now.

Having been given a second chance at life, she realized that men were nothing more than tools for satisfying her physical needs.

White Fox Yaoyao sighed, stroking her chin in thought, "Should I let Black Dragon be my boyfriend in this world? He's tall and handsome, and gentle and considerate. He'd be a great bed partner."

Just thinking about Heilong's perfect figure with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, coupled with his flawless handsome face, makes me drool.

White Fox Yaoyao thought it best to observe the Black Dragon more before making a decision.

She didn't care whether the black dragon was a demon man or not; demon men love women even more, don't they?
After returning to my room and washing up, I picked a few tomatoes and planned to make tomato noodles for breakfast.

"Huh? Where did these new tables and chairs come from?" Bai Hu Yaoyao looked at the neatly arranged new tables and chairs on the first floor, somewhat bewildered.

The first floor was spotless, and the tables and chairs were bright and clean. Most importantly, there was a food box on the table, which was undoubtedly the hibiscus cake given by Heilong.

There was a piece of paper on the counter where they collected money at the entrance.

The note above was left for her by the Black Dragon.

Tell her these are tables and chairs belonging to the demon race, and let her use them for now; she can change them if she doesn't like them.

"What's there to like or dislike? As long as it works, that's fine."

The white fox Yaoyao put away the note and opened the food box.

The hibiscus cake seemed to still be warm, probably because of the food box, which was able to keep it warm.

"Mmm, delicious! Freshly made pastries are always the best."

He went to the kitchen with a piece of hibiscus cake in his mouth.

The kitchen was also very clean and tidy, with everything arranged in a very neat manner; it would definitely cure obsessive-compulsive disorder.

White Fox Yaoyao smiled; Black Dragon must have done all this for her.

Take out the flour and start kneading the dough to make noodles.

A bowl of hot noodles with gravy is the best thing to eat in the dead of winter.

When we went to the bungalow in the backyard, the vegetables planted there were growing well, and the fire pit was still burning; Black Dragon must have added charcoal to it.

These small things show that Heilong is a very meticulous person.

I picked two sprigs of cilantro from the soil and went to the kitchen.

The flavor of tomato and egg soup will be diminished without cilantro.

Who told her to like cilantro?
Just after we finished eating, Grandpa Gu arrived with his people. The first floor is finished, and there's still a second floor to go!
The renovation of the rooms on the second floor was a bit troublesome; she spent a long time drawing up plans before she was satisfied. She also had Grandpa Gu make some simple furniture for her.

Upon seeing the white fox Yaoyao, Grandpa Gu trotted over with a radiant smile.

Like an old child who has asked for candy.

"Yaoyao! I have some amazing news for you! I got home early yesterday, so I heated up the earthen bed at home. Oh my! I slept so comfortably last night, it was so warm."

"If this stuff were to spread throughout the Northwest, it would save countless lives! You're a true hero!"

The old man was filled with excitement.

He acquired a lot of blue bricks and spent every day at home figuring out how to build a kang (heated brick bed). After much effort, he finally finished a kang, but he still had to wait for the soil to dry before he could use it.

Old Mr. Gu was so anxious every day that he scratched his head in frustration.

After waiting for the mud on the earthen bed to dry, we couldn't wait to heat it up.

Last night he slept in the room with the earthen bed, and he slept very comfortably.

The white fox Yaoyao smiled and said, "Really? That's wonderful! Grandpa Gu can earn money by building kang beds for others from now on."

The old man was extremely grateful. "Yaoyao! It's all thanks to you! Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the chance to do this kang-making work."

He wanted to split the money for the heated kang bed with Yaoyao, but she absolutely refused.

He could only try to make it up to her in other ways.

"You've taken good care of me before, it's only right, Grandpa Gu. I have to go out for a bit, you guys go ahead with your work."

She plans to sell another snow lingzhi mushroom today.

She's almost spent all the money she made from selling ginseng; it's time to sell some better stuff.

"Okay! Go ahead! Wear more layers, don't get cold."

Grandpa Gu happily went to work.

Having found a way to make money, one walks with a swagger.

The white fox Yaoyao put on thick clothes and held the red bead in her hand.

Although she didn't know what it was, holding it in her hands warmed her whole body.

She's still a bit cold, and this bead has come to her rescue.

Stepping out of the restaurant, the snow-covered streets were a bit difficult to walk on.

She walked with uneven steps, and because she was dressed in thick clothes, she was round and wobbly as she walked, like an Antarctic penguin.

It's so funny that people can't help but laugh when they see it.

Even passersby couldn't help but take a second look.

Ignoring the stares of others, Bai Hu Yaoyao headed straight for Huichun Hall.

We arrived at Huichuntang.

When Manager Chen saw that it was Bai Hu Yaoyao, his eyes lit up. "Oh my! Miss, you're here again? Are you here to sell something or to pick up medicine this time?"

Ever since Bai Hu Yaoyao sold a thousand-year-old ginseng here, Manager Chen has remembered her.

It was because of her thousand-year-old ginseng that the master's illness had hope.

They became even more enthusiastic towards the white fox, Yaoyao.

Without a word, Bai Hu Yaoyao took out a cloth bag and asked, "Shopkeeper, would you like to take this?"

This snow lingzhi is not large; it is the smallest of all lingzhi mushrooms.

Even the smallest Ganoderma lucidum, according to Shen Wuyou, is over a thousand years old.

The moment Manager Chen saw the snow lingzhi, he couldn't take his eyes off it.

"Snow Lingzhi!"

Manager Chen's voice was distorted.

One of the ingredients needed by the master is snow lingzhi.

This thing is said to be extremely rare, and they have been searching for it for ten years.

It just suddenly appeared before my eyes today.

Manager Chen was so excited that he trembled all over.

"Auntie, young lady! Are you really going to sell this snow lingzhi?" Shopkeeper Chen stammered with excitement.

White Fox Yaoyao nodded, looking completely unconcerned. "Sell it! I'm broke, and this thing isn't going to be of any use."

The bluntness startled Manager Chen, who then burst into laughter. "Young lady, you're truly a woman of character! I'll take this Snow Lingzhi! How about I give you ten thousand taels of silver?"

This snow lingzhi is already priced at a high price of ten thousand taels of silver.

White Fox Yaoyao was also satisfied with the price, "Great!"

Ten thousand taels of silver would be enough for her to live on for a while.

"Alright! You wait here, I'll go get the silver notes right away."

Manager Chen walks with a brisk pace.

He quickly came down with the silver notes and a bag of loose silver.

"Miss, this is a full 10,000 taels of silver notes, and this 100 taels of loose silver is extra for you. I know that you must have some skill to be able to produce such fine things. May I ask you something?"

The master needs more than just these two precious medicinal herbs; there are several others that are truly rare treasures.

It can be described as a legendary medicinal herb.

This girl must have some information about other medicinal herbs to be able to obtain such precious ones.

He didn't want to give up even if there was only the slightest bit of news.

"Go ahead," Bai Hu Yaoyao said with a bright smile, holding the silver note and also tucking the loose silver into her arms.

He looks like a money-grubber.
