      Money-Grubbing System C09

      Money-Grubbing System C09 Cover
      by MarineTL 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,…

      Money-Grubbing System C08 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 8 Compared to Qian Guosheng, Li Wanzhen was the more decisive one. Once persuaded by Qian Jianing, she seriously started considering doing business herself. Selling food was a low-cost, high-return venture. Opening a shop, as Jianing had suggested, wasn’t impossible, but Li Wanzhen believed it would be more profitable to push a food cart around until she built a reputation. Although this would be more exhausting, Li Wanzhen didn't mind hard work—after all, no one ever got rich by simply…

      Money-Grubbing System C07 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 7 Hearing a cat meowing outside, Qian Jianing, who was doing her homework, suddenly froze. She slowly looked up at the window shrouded in darkness. Chen Kai had called out a few times without anyone coming out, and seemed to be getting impatient. He wanted to knock on the door but was worried that Qian Jianing’s father might be home. He paced back and forth outside the front gate twice, then picked up a rock from the ground and threw it inside, hitting the tricycle with a crisp "thud." Qian…

      Money-Grubbing System C06 Cover
      by MarineTL 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 in…

      Money-Grubbing System C05 Cover
      by MarineTL 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. Just then, Food Elder finished a game and, in a rare move, put down his phone. He strolled over to glance at the Pixiu in Treasure…

      Money-Grubbing System C04 Cover
      by MarineTL 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 kitten’s…

      Money-Grubbing System C03 Cover
      by MarineTL 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 money…

      Money-Grubbing System C02 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 2 Seeing that Qian Jianing had agreed, Treasure Bowl, who had taken the form of a little child, visibly breathed a sigh of relief. “In that case, hurry up and get to sleep. Wake up early tomorrow to study.” “Study? I thought we’re supposed to make money?” Although given a second chance at life, Qian Jianing didn’t want to give up the precious opportunity to study. But with only five years until her parents’ accident, and in this era where a month's salary was only fifty to sixty…
