In Douluo Continent, what is a martial soul? It's like Luckin Coffee.

Chapter 236 Price Increase? There's no way prices will ever increase in this lifetime.

It's impossible to finish, there's simply no way to finish it.

Seeing the growing queue of customers, Yae Miko whispered to the shop manager beside her, "Manager, how about we raise our prices?"

As the saying goes, the higher the price, the fewer customers there are.

Now, these customers, especially after seeing the price of 4 copper soul coins for a cup of lemonade, are eager to take advantage of the bargain, and many are buying more than ten cups.

This caused the number of customers to accumulate.

"No, we absolutely cannot raise prices."

Bai Ran shook her head.

The low price is the fundamental reason why faith can be collected.

If the price is increased, even by just a few copper soul coins, the amount of faith gained could be significantly reduced.

However, it is indeed a bit of a hassle for one person to buy too many cups.

After all, the amount of faith a person can offer is limited.

It's better to sell ten cups of lemonade to ten people than to sell ten cups of lemonade to one person.

Moreover, the faith brought by customers who are motivated by a desire to gain a small advantage is not pure.

Therefore, after thinking about it, Bai Ran decided to temporarily implement a purchase limit.

Whether it's lemonade or ice cream, each customer can only buy two.

Although the customers at the front of the line weren't too happy.

However, the customers who were behind them all expressed their understanding.

Moreover, with the store so busy, if there were no purchase limit, customers at the end of the line might not be able to get the tea recommended by Princess Jiu Jiu even after the store closes for the day.

……

Despite the rule limiting purchases to two drinks per person, there is no sign of a decrease in customers.

Somewhat frustrated, store manager Bai Ran began to consider whether to hire another temporary worker to help out.

However, considering the increased costs, Bai Ran shook his head.

Next, we'll be attending the Starlight Auction. A few thousand gold soul coins isn't a huge amount, but it's not insignificant either.

Especially now, Bai Ran wished he could split a single gold soul coin in two to spend.

……

Meanwhile, at the Star Emperor Hotel.

After the match ended, Wang Yan returned to the hotel and his face darkened when he saw Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen, who didn't return until it was dark.

The younger ones are unruly enough, but the older ones are just as troublesome.

Because they sneaked out, Wang Yan was severely scolded by Elder Xuan.

What happened to staying in the hotel to recover from the injury?

So it was all a lie, right?

Want to go out and clear your head?

In Wang Yan's opinion, those two brats were probably already having a blast outside.

Wait, there's another one?

Just then, Wang Yan suddenly realized something was wrong.

Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen. And what about Dai Yueheng? Where did Dai Yueheng go?!
"Wang Yan, why are you looking at us like that?"

Unlike Huo Yuhao and others, in Ma Xiaotao's eyes, Wang Yan was just an outer court teacher, and his soul power level was only barely at the Soul King level.

Under normal circumstances, Wang Yan has no right to order Ma Xiaotao around.

Of course, Ma Xiaotao should listen to what the other team leader, Elder Xuan, said.

"Hey……"

Wang Yan sighed helplessly. He was completely helpless against these inner court disciples, especially his aunt Ma Xiaotao.

However, he still mustered up the courage to ask, "Um, where are Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng?"

"how could I know?"

Ma Xiaotao said with an indifferent expression.

"Wasn't he with you?" "No, why would I bring a man along when I go out with Ling Luochen?"

"Dai Yueheng has disappeared?"

From Wang Yan's expression, Ma Xiaotao sensed something was wrong.

"Uh... that shouldn't be the case."

Wang Yan shook his head.

Not long after, he also received a message from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.

Dai Yueheng has temporarily returned to the Duke's mansion and will probably stay for a few days.

……

Inside the imperial palace of the Star Luo Empire.

I'm drinking the Mixue Ice Cream lemonade that my sister brought me.

Emperor Xu Jiawei took a sip and then frowned slightly.

"It doesn't seem to be anything special. Why are you advertising this kind of tea?"

In Xu Jiawei's view, for his sister to be willing to personally endorse the store, either the taste of the tea drink is unexpected, or the person behind the tea shop is a close friend of his sister.

As for charging money?

The princess of the Star Luo Empire is the most honored person besides the emperor.

Getting her help isn't something that can be done with just a little money.

However, I've already tried this tea called Iced Lemonade, but it didn't have a particularly amazing taste.

For some ordinary people, the so-called chilled lemonade may be the best-tasting tea they have ever had in their lives.

But for Xu Jiawei, who controlled the highest level of material resources in the entire empire, the lemonade in his hand was at best of average quality, far from being top-tier.

Since it's not for sale and the lemonade doesn't taste particularly good, could it be...?
Suddenly, a terrible thought arose in Xu Jiawei's mind: Could it be that his sister was in love?

Looking at his younger sister's slightly rosy cheeks, Xu Jiawei thought about it more and more and felt that it was possible.

Just as Xu Jiawei was about to ask his sister who that man was...

Xu Jiujiu suddenly asked, "Brother, guess how much this glass of lemonade costs?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei did not speak first, but his younger sister Xu Yun spoke up first: "A lemon-flavored tea like this, with lemon slices and honey, I guess it should cost 1 gold coin a cup."

In fact, in the afternoon, Xu Yun bought a cup of lemon tea outside Xingluo Square, which cost her 1 gold soul coin.

"Um……"

Xu Jiawei nodded, indicating that the amount was not much different from what his younger sister had guessed.

"It's not that expensive."

Xu Jiujiu shook his head.

If Mixue Ice Cream's lemonade costs 1 gold soul coin, the same price as lemon tea sold elsewhere, how could she possibly be willing to do the shop owner such a big favor, even if the other party is Huo Yuhao's friend?

"5 Silver Soul Coins?"

Xu Yun said she had bought inexpensive lemon tea before.

"No, no, no, this lemonade only costs 4 copper soul coins."

As Xu Jiujiu spoke, he held up four fingers.

Upon hearing the price, Xu Yun, the younger sister, widened her eyes in shock, while Xu Jiawei, the older brother, remained outwardly calm but was inwardly utterly astonished.

Although His Majesty the Emperor did not have much of a concept of market prices.

But I was genuinely surprised by such a low price.

No wonder I've been promoting this shop for so long; the owner has such a broad vision...

Wait a minute, Xu Jiawei suddenly thought of a question.

A lemonade of this quality, priced at only 4 copper soul coins, should theoretically be doing very well for the shop owner. Why would she need to help promote it for so long?

Faced with her brother's doubts, Xu Jiujiu did not hesitate to tell him about the difficulties the shop was facing.

"The Dai family, what a fine Dai family!"

Xu Jiawei had no idea that the White Tiger Duke's Mansion had done so many things to oppress the people.
