During famine years, I had a divination slip in hand, and my whole family ate chicken, duck, fish, a

"Your sister is quite sensible."

The young shop assistant squeezed the copper coin in his palm, grinning broadly, and said, "How about this, young lady? I'll take you to see the shopkeeper, but I can't guarantee he'll accept it."

"Alright, thank you for your trouble, young man."

This is exactly what Ye Qingqing wanted.

As the saying goes, it's easier to see the King of Hell than to deal with his underlings.

Whether or not the restaurant accepts roe deer meat, the waiter at the door has the power to decide whether it's a life or a death sentence.

The young waiter led them to the counter in the lobby, bowed slightly, and said with a smile,

"Shopkeeper, a hunter from the mountains came to sell roe deer meat. It looked very fresh to me, so I brought it to you to take a look."

The shopkeeper, who was reviewing the accounts, glanced at him and was about to speak when Ye Qingqing quickly took a roe deer leg from Ye Dazhuang and held it in front of the shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper, this is a roe deer that my second brother caught yesterday. It's very fresh!"

The shopkeeper, not wanting to reprimand the young waiter any longer, reluctantly raised his eyelids, glanced at him, and said slowly,

"It looks fresh, but the store doesn't accept loose items."

I can't even be bothered to say another word.

Ye Qingqing wasn't surprised, and smiled faintly.

"It's alright if you don't accept it. I walked more than 20 miles from Kaoshantun to this town. I can't bring this meat back the same way I brought it."

"Alright, I'll borrow this space against the wall for a bit. I'll sell the roe deer meat right here and then leave."

As she spoke, she even pretended to do some calculations.

"I heard that roe deer meat can sell for 2 or 30 coins a pound in town, so I'll sell it for 10 coins a pound. If it's cheaper, people will definitely buy it."

As soon as she entered the shop, she saw the menu hanging on the wall. Roe deer meat, pheasant meat, and various wild game from the mountains were the main dishes, and a plate of them cost forty or fifty coins.

She spread out the roe deer meat in front of the shop and sold it for ten coins, letting people know that roe deer meat was so cheap. Fu Shun Lou charges forty or fifty coins for a plate, isn't that ripping people off?

"Hey, you little brat? You're acting all high and mighty, why are you cheating?"

The shopkeeper's eyes widened immediately. "If you sell it so cheaply, how am I supposed to sell the roe deer meat in the future?!"

Ye Qingqing feigned helplessness, "I had no choice, shopkeeper. I can't exactly bring the roe deer meat here and then take it back the same way, can I?"

As she spoke, she shook her head at Ye Dazhuang.

"Second brother, let's go out and sell roe deer meat. You should shout loudly and make sure people know our meat is cheap."

Ye Dazhuang raised his hand and rubbed his nose, trying to hide the corners of his mouth that were harder to suppress than an AK47.

This girl always does things in a way that makes people feel uneasy and dare not play by the rules.

"Hey, aren't you ruining my business?!"

The shopkeeper, exasperated by Ye Qingqing, waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, stop making a fuss. If it weren't for the freshness of your meat, I really wouldn't bother with you."

"I can take your roe deer meat, but the price definitely won't be that high, at most 20 copper coins."

"25, I've already inquired, the weather is getting colder and colder, and fewer and fewer hunters are going up the mountain."

Ye Qingqing said generously, "I'm not doing this for the sake of this one deal. Let's get to know each other better. From now on, my family will send our game to Fushunlou first, how about that?"

"Heh, you're quite impolite."

The shopkeeper curled his lip. "You think hunting is that easy? It's about to freeze over, and a heavy snowfall will close the mountains off. Even experienced hunters might not catch a single animal for ten days or half a month. Do you think you can catch one?"

"You know what, I'm just lucky. I always manage to hunt something every time I go up the mountain."

Ye Qingqing raised her eyebrows triumphantly, "Yesterday, besides this robe, I also hunted a wolf and sold its pelt."

Experienced hunters rely on experience to find prey and track its tracks; it's not that easy.

She is different.

She casts three divination sticks every day, with a large arrow above her head indicating the direction of her prey, essentially delivering the prey right to her doorstep for her to catch.

"Small in stature, but big in words."

The shopkeeper scoffed disdainfully, "If you can still make some tomorrow, send some to my Fushunlou restaurant so I can see what kind of luck you've got."

"Let's make it 25. Someone come and collect the stuff."

"Shopkeeper, you said it yourself."

Ye Qingqing laughed heartily, and out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught sight of Ye Dazhuang, who was looking at her with a pair of obsidian-like deep eyes, a smile playing on his lips.

He was a person from this time and space, and probably rarely had he seen someone as straightforward as her, even considered "shrewish" by others.

In this time and space, women have a low social status. Most unmarried girls are like Cui Cui, who are shy and blush when talking to strangers.

She's like my sister-in-law Li Chunyan, who's always yelling at home, but when she goes out, she's completely helpless.

Ye Qingqing didn't care about any of that; in her own time and space, she was always decisive and efficient.

My sister-in-law has a point: a leopard can't change its spots.

She was sent to transmigrate and expected to be a meek and obedient young lady? No way!

"154 catties of roe deer meat, 3 liang and 850 copper coins."

The shopkeeper glanced at the steelyard scales being carried by the two shop assistants and instructed the accountant, "Give her the silver."

Ye Qingqing readily accepted the money, saying, "Thank you, shopkeeper."

More than 100 jin of roe deer meat is enough to earn back the money spent on rice and flour.

The money bag swelled up again, jingling softly with a gentle shake. Ye Qingqing felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction and said to Ye Dazhuang,

"Brother Dazhuang, come with me to the pharmacy and buy some wound medicine for Dad."

"Um."

Ye Dazhuang nodded sullenly, a fleeting glint of something imperceptible in his deep eyes.

The two found a shop with a large gourd hanging by the door and a big sign with the word "medicine" on it, and went inside.

"One tael of silver, for a bottle?"

Hearing the waiter's quote, Ye Qingqing gasped, "Holy crap, that's expensive?"

"This is a powerful wound medicine, young lady."

The waiter chuckled and said, "Don't even mention sleeping in the straw, it's the same price whether you're sleeping on the kang (heated brick bed) or not!"

Ye Qingqing, "..."

No wonder all the old hunters know how to prepare medicated oils. If someone has a serious injury, where can they afford to buy wound medicine?

Even if it's expensive, I'll buy it. My father used his own homemade medicated oil on his injured leg, but after several days, it not only didn't get better, but it also became more red, swollen, and oozing pus.

Ye Qingqing had no choice but to take out her money pouch. "Young man, could you give me a bottle first?"

Before she could finish speaking, she caught a glimpse of Ye Dazhuang out of the corner of her eye. He was holding a bottle of wound medicine, his brows slightly furrowed, and his eyes held an indescribable meaning.

"Doctor! Doctor, please help me..."

Suddenly, someone burst in, one hand covering half of his face, his face covered in blood, staggering and crashing hard into Ye Dazhuang's back.

Ye Dazhuang's expression changed instantly. His slightly furrowed brows furrowed deeply, and a momentary ferocity flashed in his eyes.

Ye Qingqing saw a fine layer of sweat on his forehead.

Only then did she notice that a trace of blood had seeped through Ye Dazhuang's thin, tattered cotton-padded coat on his back.

No wonder he used that kind of eye-catching wound medicine; he was injured too.

"Hey buddy, two bottles, please."

Without saying a word, she took out two taels of silver from her purse.
