Eat My Childless Life: The Little Fisher Girl is Poor and Fierce

Chapter 50: She was all set to make a big splash, but he said he wanted to talk.

Zhang Hu coldly defended her, "She's just selling scallions at the market, what could she possibly do to you?"

Lin Chang'er was not intimidated and was about to reply to him.

The enthusiastic onlookers couldn't contain themselves any longer and started chattering at Zhang Hu.

"There are many things you can do. If you don't like a girl, just scold her without even asking what happened."

"Since her business was not doing well, she felt that the young girl was deliberately ostracizing her, so she paid a few people to rob her."

"If you're still not satisfied, come and cause trouble at the girl's stall again, kill her crab, and then try to extort money from her."

"After being exposed by someone's child and failing to extort money, he pushed the child."

"You broke someone's goods and refused to pay compensation. Who else would they beat up if not your wife? It's a good thing you weren't taken to the authorities."

Zhang Hu just listened, and by the end, his face had turned as black as a pot lid.

Zhang Hu shifted his gaze to his wife, "Is what they said true?"

Zhang Jia was taken aback, her eyes flickering. Without her saying a word, Zhang Hu already understood.

With a stern face, he looked at Lin Chang'er again and said, "Release her, and name your terms."

Hearing this, Lin Chang'er was stunned. She was ready to make a big splash, and he said he wanted to talk?

At this moment, the old lady came forward and whispered to her, "Girl, Zhang Hu served in the army in his younger days, and he lost that eye on the battlefield..."

Lin Chang'er paused. A soldier! Then…

Although she held the soldiers who defended their country in high esteem, she wasn't generous enough to simply forgive and forget what Zhang had done.

Lin Chang'er took a deep breath and said, "I'm a very reasonable person. Since you're also reasonable, then we can talk."

But you just heard what your woman did. I hold grudges, and it's impossible for me to let things slide.

"Pay for the broken items. Keep your woman in check; make sure she stays away from me. I'm afraid I won't be able to control my fists."

"Master..." Zhang was about to say something more.

Zhang Hu ignored him and only said to Lin Chang'er, "Do as you said."

Lin Chang'er then released Zhang Jia. As soon as Zhang Jia was free, he hurriedly got up and went to Zhang Hu's side, but he had completely lost his fierceness.

Lin Chang'er took stock of the losses and reported the figures to Zhang Hu.

Zhang Hu frowned, and the Zhang family immediately said, "That duck egg was broken by your own child, we will only compensate for the cost of the crab."

Lin Chang'er's fist hardened again. She glared at the Zhang family, then turned to Zhang Hu, "Are you trying to back out?"

But Zhang Hu said, "We don't want the goods, we'll compensate you with half the silver, how about that?"

Lin Chang'er quickly calculated in her mind that she could take the crabs back to eat herself, and she could sell or give away the sea duck eggs that weren't badly cracked. She nodded, "This is for your sake."

Zhang Hu nodded, paid the money, and left with his wife.

Lin Chang'er sighed inwardly, thinking that the Zhang family woman herself was a shameless person, but the man she married was a real man.

Now that the matter is over, business still needs to be done, but favors still need to be repaid.

Lin Chang'er returned to her stall with her two children and said to the still-lingering onlookers, "Thank you so much for speaking up for us today."

I just checked all these sea duck eggs, and most of them only had cracked shells, which doesn't affect their edibility.

If you don't mind, we'll offer a buy-one-get-one-free deal: buy one good duck egg, regardless of size, and get one cracked egg free. This offer is valid until we sell out.

The scallions are temporarily out of stock, we're restocking. If you can wait a bit, you can browse around and pick them up later, or you can make a note of them and come back tomorrow.

Immediately, some people applauded and cheered, while others quickly pulled out copper coins from their money bags, saying, "Give me two small ones."

"Okay!" Lin Chang'er took the money, and Xu Gun'er, who was standing to the side, had already picked up two small sea duck eggs and handed them over.

The little goldfish carefully took two cracked duck eggs and handed them to him, saying, "These are a little something extra for you, please take them."

The customer was all smiles, having bought something that originally cost 14 coins for only 6 coins.

Some people, squeezed to the back and afraid of missing out, raised their hands, pleading, "Boss lady, please save two for me..."

Of course, there are also customers who have high requirements for quality and are not in a hurry.

Soon enough, the sea duck eggs were almost sold out.

Someone even asked about the crab that had been smashed to death, "Boss lady, how much is that crab?"

Lin Chang'er originally planned to take it home for a meal, so she said, "I originally bought it for 35 coins, but it was killed by the fall. We can eat it at noon, so it won't make much of a difference. How about 20 coins?"

The man lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, "How about 18 coins? I'll buy ten more stream fish."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chang'er didn't dwell on the two coins. "Alright, here's your 18 coins. Buy ten stream fish and get one free. Please come back often."

The customer paid the bill, took his things, and left happily.

Immediately, someone regretted it, saying, "If I had known you were selling crabs too, I would have bought them." 18 coins! That's half price!

Lin Chang'er recognized the customer who had been eyeing the crabs at the stall for a while and smiled, "I still have some here, blue crabs, blue crabs, swimming crabs, take your pick. If you see one you like, I'll give you a discount."

The customer chuckled sheepishly, still feeling cheated. He thought, "Even if it's cheap, it shouldn't be 18 coins, right?"

At this moment, a man in a blue robe squeezed through the crowd and said to Lin Chang'er, "I've come to return the basket."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chang'er looked over and recognized him as yesterday's "God of Wealth".

"Thank you for making this trip," Lin Chang'er politely accepted the basket and pulled out a small bucket from behind her. "These are sea urchins, just caught yesterday. Please enjoy them."

A strange glint flashed in Wu Qingfeng's eyes. He glanced at the little girl in front of him again out of the corner of his eye, and finally waved his hand, "I can't accept a reward without merit."

Lin Chang'er: "..." They say it's a fool not to take advantage of a good deal, but this is quite a novel one.

Lin Chang'er smiled and said, "You gave me a lot of money yesterday, so it's nothing special. Just something new to try. Fried rice or sashimi is fine with me."

Upon hearing this, Wu Qingfeng found the girl quite amusing. She even included the recipe for the food she was giving him, worried that he wouldn't know how to eat it. However, he had heard of fried rice before, but what was this new way of eating sashimi?

The image of her secretly taking money from her purse and throwing it on the ground in front of the Sihai Restaurant yesterday flashed through her mind again.

It's often said that businessmen are driven by profit, but I think that's not entirely true.

With that in mind, another idea came to him.

He took the bucket, glanced at the "leftovers" on the stall, and asked, "Any new stock today?"

Lin Chang'er nodded hurriedly, "I was lucky yesterday and picked up two buckets of clams, which are almost sold out. We also have grouper, sea bass, and eel, as well as half a bucket of mantis shrimp. You bought the blue crabs yesterday, so today we have blue crabs and swimming crabs."

We also have some stream fish. Take a look, is there anything you'd like to try?

Although many people had inquired about grouper and other similar products before, none of them were sold due to the price.

The man in front of me is certainly not short of money, but he can't possibly eat that much by himself.

So Lin Chang'er approached him with a calm attitude, thinking that she would sell as many as she could, and if she couldn't sell them, she would go to the county town.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, she saw the "God of Wealth" open and close his thin lips and say, "I'll take it all, you give me the numbers."
