Chapter 211: Too Bad She’s A Jinx

The next day, Lin Yuelan brought little twelve to the town early in the morning.

Little twelve was carrying some prey on his back. They hunted these animals from the back mountain over the past few days. Lin Yuelan kept some to raise, but there was still a lot left. Therefore, Lin Yuelan planned to give some to Yuelai Inn for free.

Since they were partners, Lin Yuelan might as well do them this favor. The wild game was not worth much anyway.

Lin Yuelan and little twelve took their own ox-cart to the town.

Back then, when Lin Yuelan bought an ox from town, the Lin family villagers had been filled with envy and jealousy.

‘This damn jinx, her life is getting better and better. In such a short time, she has bought an ox.’

Back then, it was more expensive to buy an ox than to buy a person.

For example, it would cost twenty taels of silver to buy a strong servant, but it would cost at least thirty taels of silver to buy a cow, and that was if the cow had some problems or was of a bad breed.

A good cow would cost 40 to 50 taels of silver. Therefore, people in the countryside would never be able to afford one in their entire lives.

Lin Yuelan’s original intention of buying the cow was to help with land development. However, Ning An Town was quite far from the Lin family Village. If Lin Yuelan had to walk over every time she needed to go to town, she’d get tired too. Therefore, she decided to use the cow to pull an ox cart.

Lin Yuelan and Little Twelve got on the cart with their stuff and went to town.

As soon as the manager of Yuelai Inn saw Lin Yuelan, he came out to greet her with a smile. “Miss Lin, you’re here!”

This manager was no longer the same manager from last time.

After the waiter had humiliated Lin Yuelan last time, Liu Qi did a quick check at the inn. In the end, he found out that the innkeeper had secretly confiscated a lot of money into his own pocket. Naturally, he couldn’t stay.

Liu Qi fired the shopkeeper and the waiter without any hesitation.

This new manager was actually the supervisor of the Liu family’s other businesses, but Liu Qi had directly transferred him over to Yuelai Inn to be the manager.

The new manager had heard of Lin Yuelan before he was transferred over here. Therefore, he immediately understood what to do.

Then, he looked at the wild animals Little Twelve was carrying.

Lin Yuelan pretended not to notice Manager Liu’s gaze and asked indifferently, “Manager Liu, is your young master here?”

The Liu Family had many businesses. Yuelai Inn was only one of them. Liu Qi only came here occasionally.

Manager Liu smiled and said, “Young Master was here, but the eldest miss came and dragged him to go jewelry shopping with her.”

Lin Yuelan nodded.

She gestured to little twelve to hand the four wild pheasants and rabbits to manager Liu and said, “Manager Liu, these are the wild game we hunted from the mountain. Please accept them.”

Yuelai Inn sometimes offered dishes with wild games, and the price was fair.

Manager Liu immediately gestured to the waiter to take the things from little twelve’s hands and put them in the kitchen.

It was only ten in the morning, so there shouldn’t be any customers.

However, Lin Yuelan looked around the hall and saw that every table was filled with people. From time to time, she heard someone shouting, “waiter, one braised carp!”

“Okay, Sir, please wait a moment!”

“Waiter, get me a serving of carp soup!”

“I’ll have a serving of sweet and sour fish!”

Almost every table was ordering fish. ‘Is fish that delicious? It’s not even lunchtime, and everyone is here to eat fish.’

Seeing Lin Yuelan’s puzzled look, manager Liu immediately stepped forward and explained, “ever since the townspeople heard about our new fish recipe, they came to try them out. They didn’t expect the taste to be so delicious. Many people immediately fell in love.” As he spoke, Manager Liu’s eyes were fixed on the various kinds of fish on the guests ‘tables. He said with excitement in his eyes, “As the word spread, Yuelai Inn became even more famous. Even though our fish dishes’ price is a little expensive, it is fair for the taste. Many people even have to come back the day after because we only provide 50 servings of fish daily. Therefore, some people come here early in the morning to line up in order to eat fish.”

Manager Liu had worked in the business for a long time, but he had not seen something like this before.
