Chapter 3 Seeing the thunderstruck expression on Qian Jianing’s face, Treasure Bowl mercilessly urged, “Hurry up and eat, then let’s go out to sell potato strips.” Looking at one of the tubs filled with potato strips thicker than her finger, Qian Jianing hesitated. “Will anyone actually buy these?” “Then fry them into French fries or make mashed potatoes. Either way, we can’t waste them,” Treasure Bowl said energetically, continuing to urge Qian Jianing. “Hurry up and eat. The…- 234.4 K • Completed
- Chapter 4 Qian Jianing pedaled her tricycle home happily, listening to Treasure Bowl’s constant chatter in her mind. Originally, Treasure Bowl just wanted to recoup the cost of the potatoes, but upon seeing how profitable fries and mashed potatoes were, it immediately began complaining about shredded potatoes, sighing repeatedly. With a schoolbag full of money, Qian Jianing was in such a good mood that she felt like singing. As for Treasure Bowl’s childish grumbling, it sounded more like a…

- Chapter 5 “A Pixiu?” Treasure Bowl’s chubby little face twisted into an expression of deep conflict. “This Pixiu carving looks nothing like the real thing! It’s so ugly—how could it possibly be a Pixiu? It’s, at best, a mishmash of random animals.” Qian Jianing’s smile froze on her face. She turned her head in silence to keep carving her little bunny.

- Chapter 6 Li Wanzhen washed her face and started preparing breakfast. Qian Jianing cleaned the meat and asked Li Wanzhen for a large cutting board, which she placed on the big table in the courtyard. She first diced a piece of meat and then began mincing it for filling. At first, Li Wanzhen thought Qian Jianing's enthusiasm would last no more than three minutes. Once her hands got tired and her arms sore, she would probably give up on the whole idea of running a small business. While Li Wanzhen was…

- Chapter 9 Summer mornings are the coolest time of day. Qian Jianing glanced at the clock on the wall—five o’clock sharp. She was surprised it was still so early. After drinking that glass of wine and following the Food Elder through his mortal past, waking up again felt like waking from a dream. Tiptoeing out of bed, Qian Jianing quietly washed up, changed clothes, and rode her tricycle out. Today she was selling liangpi (cold skin noodles), so she bought over ten pounds of cucumbers and carrots,…

- Chapter 10 There were only two days left until payday. The finance department had just withdrawn tens of thousands of yuan and hadn’t unpacked it yet, so there was readily available cash on hand. The Factory Director signed an agreement with Li Wanzhen, and the Finance Section Chief wrote a withdrawal slip, then had the Factory Director sign it and took Li Wanzhen to the finance office to collect the money. Li Wanzhen stuffed three stacks of big denomination bills into her backpack, feeling a…

- Chapter 12 When Qian Xiaomi was renovating the house, the neighbors all came over out of curiosity to take a look. Once the signboard for “Qian Xiaomi’s Shop” was hung, their curiosity grew even more. Wasn’t Qian Xiaomi still in high school? Why was she opening a shop? Was she dropping out of school? Qian Xiaomi had previously set up her street food stands in the eastern, southern, and western parts of town—nowhere near her home. Though Zibo City isn’t large, Qian Jianing had only been…

- Chapter 13 There were only a few numbered tickets left in Qian Jiafeng's hand. As his stomach growled and he was about to ask Qian Jianing for something to eat, four people got off the bus at the Dongyi Street intersection. Seeing the long, winding queue, they ran over whining, "Oh no, oh no, we might not get any this time." Qian Jiafeng counted the tickets—there were exactly four left. As the group ran up to him, he hurriedly stuffed the tickets into their hands. "You guys made it just in time for…
