Starting with a cub, the superpower boss becomes the richest man by lying flat

Chapter 23 I hope you won’t be scared to death when you get to my house
Soon, the young man came over with the shopkeeper.

"Boss, this girl said she has prey to sell. This girl, you are our boss." After the young man introduced both parties, he went back to his work with tact.

The shopkeeper was a skinny old man with a goatee on his chin and a pair of sharp and shrewd eyes. What surprised Lin Xin most was his vigorous vitality, which was no less than that of a young man in his early twenties. He looked like a martial artist, and a very powerful one at that.

While Lin Xin was observing him, the shopkeeper was also observing her.

An inconspicuous farm girl, dressed in ordinary clothes, younger than he imagined, with delicate features. However, due to years of hard work, only 50% or 60% of her original beauty remained.

"Miss, I heard you have prey to sell. Please show me where the prey is. If it is suitable, our restaurant will take it." After the observation, the shopkeeper twirled his goatee and said.

Lin Xin nodded. "It's right outside. Have someone bring a scale to the back alley."

The shopkeeper called the accountant, the cook in the kitchen, and a young man holding a scale, and they left the restaurant together and went around to the alley next to it. They saw two huge wild boars, a wild goat and a roe deer lying at the feet of the little girl carrying a basket on her back.

"Hiss~" The shopkeeper twirled his goatee again and looked around. When he saw no one else, he asked, "Did the girl bring all this herself?"

Lin Xin smiled at him but didn't answer.

The shopkeeper was tactful and knew that she didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't ask any more questions and asked the chef to check the quality of the food.

"Wow, you're really talented, little girl! These wild boars and roe deer are still fresh! And the wild goats too." The cook walked forward to take a closer look and gave Lin Xin a thumbs up.

"Can you accept it?" Lin Xin asked.

"That's great, boss. Please accept it quickly! We can add a few new dishes to Mr. Wang's table tonight." The chubby chef said with a smile, touching his belly.

"Okay, then we'll take it. Little girl, our restaurant is very fair in doing business. We'll take the wild boar at 20 cents per pound, and the wild goat and roe deer at 35 cents, also for the whole head. What do you think?" The shopkeeper was very straightforward.

"Deal!" Lin Xin was also very happy.

The next step was to weigh them. The two wild boars weighed a total of 430 kilograms, the wild goats weighed 196 kilograms, and the roe deer weighed 63 kilograms.

"Wild boars are 20 wen per pound, wild goats and roe deer are 35 wen per pound, the total is..." The accountant started calculating on the side.

"Wild boar 8,600 wen, wild goat 6,860 wen, roe deer 2,205 wen." Lin Xin blurted out the answer before it came out.

"Yes, the total is seventeen taels of silver plus six hundred and sixty-five coins," the accountant also calculated the result. "Young lady, you calculate very quickly."

"Hehe," Lin Xin touched her nose. She had learned abacus and her grades were pretty good!

"Miss, you have such skills! Well, your prey is fresh enough. I will make it a round sum for you and give you eighteen taels of silver. If you have prey like this in the future, just send it to us and we will take it." After the shopkeeper said this, he took out a ten-tael silver ingot and eight small one-tael silver ingots and handed them to Lin Xin.

"Thank you, boss, thank you, cook, and accountant," Lin Xin thanked them one by one after taking the silver. Then she handed over the osmanthus cakes in her hand. "Take these cakes home and try them to see if they're delicious. I'm leaving now!"

After saying this, he didn't wait for them to refuse and ran out of the alley with the basket on his back.

"This kid is quite polite!" The fat chef patted his belly and laughed.

"Don't underestimate this girl. Her kung fu skills are probably not inferior to..." The shopkeeper squinted his eyes and pointed his index finger upwards.

"No way, she's so young!" the accountant exclaimed. "Haha, I was wrong at first too!" the shopkeeper said, stroking his goatee and returning to the restaurant.

"Fatty, do you believe it?" the accountant asked the fat chef unwillingly.

"I'm just selling a game. What does it matter whether you believe it or not?" The fat chef patted his belly and left.

"Hey, you guys..." The accountant stomped his feet and chased after them.

Lin Xin had no idea that the three people were talking about her again after she left. She was now happily shopping.

After eating chicken for several days in a row, she now felt that she was full of the smell of chicken feathers. She quickly had some pork to improve her diet. She didn’t buy all the seasonings last time, so this time she wanted to find somewhere to buy some. Novels said that many seasonings were used as medicinal ingredients in ancient times, so she also wanted to go to the clinic she visited last time.

"Little girl, are you here to sell ginseng again? Take it out for me to see." As soon as she appeared in the clinic, the old doctor who had smelled the scent last time came over. It looked like he wanted to grab her backpack with his hands.

"Do you think wild ginseng is like cabbage? It's not that easy to find." Lin Xin rolled her eyes and took a step back. "I came here to buy some ginger, star anise, tsaoko, ophiopogon japonicus, bay leaves, cinnamon, and other medicinal herbs. Do you have any here?"

"Why are you buying these?" The old man's eyes lit up as he thought of something. "Little girl, can you cook?"

"What do you want to do?" Lin Xin was frightened by his sparkling eyes.

"Hehe," the old man rubbed his hands, "I don't have any other hobbies except medicinal herbs and food. As soon as you mentioned that, I knew you were a skilled craftsman. I just don't know if you will waste my herbs."

After saying this, he shook his head and secretly glanced at Lin Xin with his eyes.

Lin Xin's expression was indescribable.

There is already a big tiger eating for free at home, is there going to be another little old man this time?
"I······"

"Don't tell me. I'll go with you and you'll know once I eat." The old man quickly interrupted her. Seeing that she was about to refute, he said, "The child you brought last time was not raised well since childhood. I dare not say anything else, but my medical skills are still very impressive. Do you want me to take a look at him?"

This time he really touched Lin Xin's heart. Lin Nan had never had a sip of breast milk since he was born. He was raised by the original owner with rice soup. After surviving, he lived with the original owner and had to go without meals. Although Lin Xin used her wood-type ability to nourish his body after he fell asleep these days, she was not sure whether Lin Nan had any physical defects.

"Okay, okay, okay, can't I do it for you? Just pick a time!" Lin Xin finally compromised.

"What are you looking at? It's better to do it today than to wait for another day." The old man was very happy. He not only packed a lot of the seasonings she had just mentioned, but also packed several kinds that she had not thought of. After preparing them, he pulled her and was about to walk out.

"Not today. We live in the village below, and it takes a long time to go back and forth. Besides, we are poor and we only have one house. If you don't come back tonight, we will have nowhere to stay." Lin Xin quickly stopped him.

"It's all right, old man. I have a carriage, so I'm not afraid of walking at night."

"Okay, whatever you want," Lin Xin said desperately, thinking of the freeloader at home. "I hope you don't get scared to death when you get to my house."

"I'm almost sixty years old this year. What else can scare me, an old man? Girl, let me tell you, you can't be so stingy. Although I eat your food, I also give you free medical treatment! You made a profit, you know? Back then, those dignitaries lined up and brought mountains of gold and silver to ask me to treat them, but I didn't bother to pay attention to them." The old man became more arrogant as he spoke.

"Okay, okay, you're awesome!" Lin Xin shut up completely.
