Chapter 545: Chapter 546: It’s Practically an Instant Kill (Alliance Leader +6)

The second day at noon, Chiang Xiao took advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention and made her way to the back door of the old restaurant. Seeing that the coast was clear, she took the game out of the Space, and only then did she go forward to knock on the door.

She really hadn’t been able to borrow a cart, so this was the only tactic left.

The door opened, and it was the same grumpy uncle from yesterday.

"Did the goods really come?" As soon as he saw Chiang Xiao, that’s what he blurted out.

Chiang Xiao’s face darkened, "Uncle, what do you mean by that? Are you saying that you were just kidding me yesterday? That you actually don’t want to buy?"

"No, no, no, that’s not what I meant. I’m saying, girl, you’ve got to work on that temper of yours!" He had barely finished speaking when he caught sight of the game packed in bamboo baskets, his eyes lit up instantly, and he charged over to take a closer look.

"Oh, they really are here! So many! Huh, girl, where are your uncles?"

There was no one else there, just this girl.

Chiang Xiao kept her composure, "They were in a hurry to get here, starving by the time they arrived, so after they brought the stuff over, they went off to find a place to eat, leaving me in full charge. Uncle, there are a total of twenty hares, fifteen pheasants, and eighteen birds. For the hare, I’ll charge you..."

The uncle listened to Chiang Xiao list the prices with eloquence and was left dumbfounded.

"Alright, alright, alright, I believe your uncles truly trust you to bargain, you’re even better than me!" He was impressed by her calculation skills, as if she was flipping beads on an abacus; it was quite remarkable.

In the end, the deal was struck, and Chiang Xiao made nearly four hundred yuan!

Good fortune seemed to come in a wave, as afterward, she found two more shops and arranged, using the same method, to deliver goods there the next day.

While eating at the restaurant, she overheard some people at the next table discussing a factory in the provincial capital that offered excellent conditions. The canteen charged only a small fee, but every meal included meat dishes! They said that the factory workers were quite pompous and even spoiled to the point of complaining about getting tired of pork!

They discussed the matter with envy, admiring those who worked at that factory, but Chiang Xiao was stirred by the conversation and approached to ask a few questions.

Those people were quite willing to tell her the name of the factory.

Chiang Xiao made a note of it and decided that if she really couldn’t sell the fresh meat in the county, she would go to the provincial capital to have a look.

After all, by the time she sold two batches of live game to those two restaurants the following day, her family of three would have enough money to get by in the early days of their move to the city.

Upon returning, Chiang Xiao gave the local militia a call, knowing they were familiar with Hu Xibing, and left a few words for them to pass along.

She definitely wouldn’t be able to return in the next two days.

Two days later, Chiang Xiao spent all her time painting, only going out at noon to eat. She sold game three times in total, earning nearly eight hundred yuan, and she also finished the painting of Welcoming Pine.

When she asked Uncle Lee to come over and look, his family of three were completely astonished.

The morning sun cast a warm crimson glow across the sky, and beneath it, the Welcoming Pine was lush and brimming with life.

The entire painting radiated a very pleasing sensation, with harmonious colors and a lively composition, down to each distinct pine needle.

Compared to the painting of blossoming and prosperous flowers, it was a total knockout.

When Uncle Lee first bought the painting of blossoming and prosperous flowers, he was mainly concerned with the size because it was hard to find such a large painting. Also, his friend kept egging him on, which was why he finally made the purchase.

But now, having seen the Welcoming Pine painted by Chiang Xiao, he didn’t need to think twice, nor did he need anyone else to say another word; he had already decided in his heart that he must buy it, no matter what.
