Chapter 468: Chapter 468: Setting up a Stall at the Market Chapter 468: Chapter 468: Setting up a Stall at the Market At the village entrance, they saw the familiar driver unloading goods from his small truck.

“Uncle Driver, are you heading to town?” Xiao Lingzhi was very familiar.

The driver stopped the car and replied, “Yes!”

“Can you give us a ride? Please!” Xiao Lingzhi rubbed her small hands, looking pitiable, “Please, kind uncle!”

Xiao Lingzhi pulled Little Taotie to her side and whispered, “Quick, act cute!”

Little Taotie was stunned for a moment and stared at the driver with wide eyes.

Before she could speak, the driver was already charmed by those adorable eyes, and impressed by the strength this child had shown before, so he waved his big hand, “Everyone on board! It’s on the way!”

Thanks to Xiao Lingzhi and Little Taotie, the group got a free ride.

Upon reaching the town, the sun was setting, and it was very lively with many villagers who had finished their farm work bringing goods from home to trade at the market.

Some elders were exchanging the chicken eggs they had saved up for things like Rice Cake others had made, bargaining fiercely amidst the bustling atmosphere.

“I’m off!” The driver dropped them off and then drove away.

Gu Yixing found an empty spot and set down the big bamboo basket, then stood in front of it, lost in thought.

King of Film Xu frowned, “I think we should start selling.”

Gu Yixing sighed, “I know we should, but do you know how to sell these vegetables? How much should we charge?”

King of Film Xu, “I’m not sure.”

Cheng Lu stepped forward, squatted down, and started to arrange the vegetables in the basket, “Just standing here waiting for business to come is not going to work; why don’t we go check out other stalls and ask for prices?”

“That’s also a solution.” King of Film Xu volunteered boldly, “I’ll go have a look around.”

Cheng Lu said, “The two of you go check it out separately, ask several more vendors about their prices, and I’ll stay here to watch our stand.”

Little Taotie’s stomach was a bit hungry, so she unwrapped a corn candy and ate it, savoring the sweet flavor.

Xiao Lingzhi made a face, “Do you really think it tastes good? I thought you were just pretending to like it to comfort the old man!”

Little Taotie cocked her head, looking confused, “Why should I deceive him? Don’t you think it’s tasty?”

“It’s all artificial flavor, and it sticks to the teeth.” Xiao Lingzhi muttered softly, “My grandpa never lets me eat this kind of sticky candy; he says it’s the worst for your teeth!”

Little Taotie unwrapped another candy and mumbled with her mouth full, “Mom used to sneak it to my brother and sister. I hardly ever got to eat any! I think it’s super yummy!”

Xiao Lingzhi gave her all the candy from her pocket, “Then they’re all yours; I really can’t get used to them.”

Little Taotie blushed with embarrassment, “You earned this with hard work, are you really giving it all to me?”

“Without you teaching me, I wouldn’t have known how, and I would have pulled out all the shoots!” Xiao Lingzhi sighed, “It’s hard to become frugal after being extravagant!”

Little Taotie didn’t understand and looked at her tilting her head, “What does that mean?”

“It means I’m used to eating expensive candy, so it’s hard for me to get used to eating this cheap stuff.”

Little Taotie covered her mouth and laughed, “You’re just picky~”
“Shh!” Xiao Lingzhi retorted without amusement, “Don’t you know not to point out the obvious? Although I am a bit picky with food, I don’t waste food! If you didn’t like it, I would force myself to eat it!”

Little Taotie giggled, “I like it! So you don’t have to eat it!”

An old Granny came up to the basket to have a look and asked, “How much are you selling for?”

Cheng Lu looked baffled, “How much do you want?”

Granny picked up a bunch of celery, “Just this bunch, how much is it?”

Cheng Lu gave an awkward smile, “Just pay what you think is fair.”
