Reborn at 80: From Village Scoundrel to Billionaire

"Sell them. Of course we have to sell them. It's so hot; the fish will die in half a day if we leave them in the bucket. If we don't sell them, all our work today will have been for nothing. Let's go back to the village and borrow a carriage from Old Fan!"

"Okay!"

……

More than an hour later, at the fish market street in the town.

After Liu Bei found a place to tie up his horse, he and Fan Ha'er carried the wooden buckets and headed straight for Chen Shunzi's shop.

Just as he was about to reach Chen Shunzi's shop, he glanced at the young woman's shop out of the corner of his eye.

The young woman had changed her clothes again today, wearing a white tight-fitting T-shirt that accentuated her curves.

He was wearing dark trousers and was sitting on a slightly chipped wooden chair with his legs crossed, watching the pedestrians on the street while slowly cracking sunflower seeds.

In addition, her hair was permed into curls today, and she also wore a delicate makeup look.

What's most striking is that a wonderfully fragrant perfume wafts from her from a great distance, making you want to follow the scent to her shop.

"Brother Bei? What are you looking at?" Fan Ha'er asked curiously, following Liu Bei's gaze.

Instantly, Fan Ha'er's eyes widened, almost popping out of their sockets.

Last time, the young woman wore a wide, long dress with a low neckline, and he couldn't take his eyes off her.

Wearing this form-fitting T-shirt today, her figure was even more stunning than last time. He was completely dumbfounded, staring at the young woman without moving.

The place above that supports the children is a veritable behemoth.

Her waist was so slender that it could be grasped in one hand.

Further down is that round thing, so perfectly round it's a feast for the eyes.

Everything looked like it had been drawn from a painting.

For a moment, Fan Ha'er felt his throat go dry, and subconsciously swallowed, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

"Ha-er, ha-er~"

After Liu Bei withdrew his gaze, he called out a few times, but strangely there was no response. He turned around in confusion and saw Fan Ha'er staring intently at the young woman's chest, drooling.

Liu Bei: "..."

This little guy drools every time he comes here!

Shaking his head, Liu Bei shouted loudly:

"Haa!"

After he finished speaking, Fan Ha'er did not react.

Liu Bei: "..."

My soul has really been stolen!

After a moment of silence, Liu Bei raised his voice and shouted again:

"Haa!"

But Fan Ha'er still didn't make a move.

Liu Bei: "..."

This guy has really fallen into the trap of a young woman.

If this continues, I'll really become the unlucky guy Zhang Wuji's mother talked about!

No, that young woman from the fish market is clearly a femme fatale; we absolutely cannot let Ha'er be seduced by her.

Left with no other option, Liu Bei slapped Fan Ha'er on the forehead: "What are you looking at? Be careful you don't get eaten by a fox!"

"Huh? A fox? Where's the fox?"

After waking Fan Ha'erbei, he searched everywhere for the fox.

Liu Bei: "..."

Pointing at the young woman in the fish market, he said, "Isn't she a vixen?"

Fan Ha'er: "..."

He finally came to his senses and understood what Liu Bei meant. He scratched his head and said, "Brother Bei... I... I..."

Liu Bei frowned: "What do you mean, 'what'? Get to work!"

"No... Brother Bei," Fan Ha'er finally managed to finish speaking, her face flushed red, "I want... I want to have a child with that older sister."

"..."

Liu Bei almost choked on his breath.

"Fan Ha'er, have you lost your mind? Do you even know that woman has already—"

Before he could finish speaking, Liu Bei saw the young woman at the fish market casually flick away the sunflower seed shells and then stand up.

She straightened the hem of her T-shirt, then, swaying her hips and taking steps, walked towards Liu Bei and Fan Ha'er.

With each step, the fragrance grew stronger.

As she approached, she winked at Fan Ha'er, then glanced at Liu Bei, her eyes filled with long, alluring glances that seemed to drip with seductive charm.

"That lady is so pretty!"

"Gurgle~"

Fan Ha'er swallowed hard and ran off impatiently.

"return!"

But as soon as Fan Ha'er took a step, Liu Bei pulled him back.

"You two handsome bosses are here again?" The young woman walked over, her voice deliberately drawn out, sounding both coquettish and soft, as if she were pleading. "I was wrong last time; I didn't recognize your greatness and neglected you both. I've been reflecting on it ever since you left."

She clutched her chest, feigning heartbreak: "After reflecting on my actions, I realize I was wrong. Absolutely wrong! You two handsome bosses absolutely have to sell me your fish today. As for the price, we can discuss it, everything is negotiable!"

She paused, glanced at Chen Shunzi's shop deep in the alley, then looked at Liu Bei with an even sweeter smile: "Whatever price Chen Shunzi offers, today I'll offer a dime more! What do you two handsome bosses think?"

"Gao Yimao?" Fan Ha'er's eyes lit up instantly. She desperately turned her head to look at Liu Bei, her eyes burning with eagerness. "Brother Bei! Gao Yimao! Sell it to this lady! She's not only a good person, but she also charges a high price! It's a great deal!"

Liu Bei: "..."

He didn't agree immediately, but instead squinted at the young woman.

Seeing his silence, the young woman assumed he thought it wasn't enough, and her smile widened even further: "Of course, if you two handsome bosses still feel it's not enough, I... I can add another dime! Two dimes more than Chen Shunzi! Is that alright?"

"What? Gao Liangmao?" Fan Ha'er exclaimed excitedly. "Brother Bei! Gao Liangmao! This pretty lady is so kind, let's sell her!"

But Liu Bei remained silent, his eyes still fixed on the young woman at the fish market.

"Um?"

The young woman's heart began to pound.

What's wrong with this kid?

I've already raised the price by two cents, and he still won't budge?

Is it not enough?

They're so greedy!

But the thought of Chen Shunzi buying Liu Bei's and his companion's goods and then overwhelming her with the quantity made her angry.

If Chen Shunzi takes this deal again today, where will she put her face? How will she ever be able to show her face in the fish market again?

No, she had to snatch this deal from Chen Shunzi today.

Having thought of this, she steeled her resolve, her smile unchanged, and her voice became even softer and more alluring.

In order to close the deal, she even deliberately moved half a step closer to Liu Bei, and the pleasant scent of her perfume immediately filled Liu Bei's nose.

"Handsome boss, look... I've really shown my sincerity today. Three cents! I'm offering three cents more than Chen Shunzi, that's my bottom line. If it goes any higher, I really won't make much profit, I really can't raise the price any further! Handsome bosses, please, for the sake of how hard it is for this young lady to earn money to support her family, sell the fish to me. Handsome bosses, please?"

After saying that, the young woman looked at Liu Bei with a sparkling gaze.

But in my heart I was thinking:

I've sacrificed my looks, I don't believe you two young men won't be captivated by my eyebrows.

What's more, I've also raised my price by three cents. I'm rich and beautiful, I don't believe you two young people won't be tempted.

Chen Shunzi, I'm going to snatch this deal today!

"What? Three...three cents? It's gone up another cent?"

Upon hearing this, Fan Ha'er excitedly tugged at Liu Bei's sleeve, "Brother Bei... Sanmao... she's grown three mao... please sell her... I beg you... this sister is such a good sister... just sell her to her..."
