98 The Power of the Heavenly Law

Lin Zheng, Li Shi, and Zhou Shan worked with Su Binglan for two days and benefited greatly. They learned many things from their boss and even got to eat her delicious cooking.

Lin Zheng had finally figured out why his boss had told him to help her run her stall. It was only for his own good, after all. Moreover, if his boss wanted to rent a shop, she would cook many exquisite dishes, so he instinctively offered his help.

Su Binglan knew Lin Zheng lived in the town. It was evident Li Shi and Zhou Shan were also in town very often, so they knew the area better than their boss.

Su Binglan said, “I’m interested in a large or maybe two shops side by side. It would be great if one were connected to a backyard too. That way, we can rest in the back if we need to. Also, the shop can’t be too far away, and the price should be fair.

Lin Zheng replied with a salute, “Yes, boss! I’ll find you a few options immediately, and then you can choose between them!”

Su Binglan nodded and said, “Thank you very much.”

Lin Zheng was flattered when he heard his boss’s thanks. “It’s our honor to work for you, boss. You don’t have to thank us.”

Su Binglan smiled and looked at Lin Zheng. “All right, go on.”

“Yes, boss,” Lin Zheng briefly replied and left.

Su Binglan strolled around town after closing her stall. However, she could not help but hear a lot of townsfolk gossiping.

“Have you heard? Master Zhu from the Zhu family fell from his carriage last night. He’s unconscious, and his family has been looking for a doctor since last night.”

“Master Zhu is not a good person. He abuses his power to bully others. He’s even the cause of some peoples’ deaths.”

“Shh, you can’t say such things.”

“I also heard one of the Zhu family’s stewards fell into a river and drowned. A distant cousin of mine worked for the Zhus. He told me the steward had caused the deaths of many long-term employees.”

“I-Is that true? It’s so bizarre.”

“Did Master Zhu and the steward offend someone to end up like this?”

“Who knows? Still, the Zhus aren’t nice people. To be honest, this is satisfying news to me.”

…

Su Binglan was puzzled when she heard these things. She had not taken action against the Zhus, yet they had already become victims of such incidents.

Suddenly, Su Binglan thought of her Soul Power. She had set the rules for this world and created everything in it, so it was only natural she possessed special powers.

It seemed whoever offended her would end up in a miserable state, and Su Binglan did not even have to do anything. That was a power that came with her soul.

Did the people of the Zhu family get punished because of this?

Nonetheless, people of that era were good at gossiping, so Su Binglan heard a lot of news from them.

She continued walking forward. It was almost noon when she passed by Drunken Cloud. Su Binglan noticed a long line outside the restaurant. The people talked about Drunken Cloud’s new dishes as they stood in the queue.

“I tried their sour and spicy potato pancake, which was terrific. Also, they sold it at half-price for the first three days. Drunken Cloud never had such cheap dishes in the past.”

“I agree. I brought my family here for those three days. The potato pancake only cost eight coins.”

“The waiter told me it’s Drunken Cloud’s signature dish.”

“The sour flavor and spicy sensation feel strange, but in a good way. I’ve never tasted anything quite like it before.”

“Drunken Cloud also has a spicy chicken dish which was exquisite. Just smelling its aroma makes me drool.”

“The spicy chicken is a little expensive, but everyone who visited Drunken Cloud the first three days they introduced the new dishes had an opportunity to taste a small piece as a free sample.”

…

Su Binglan smiled when she heard the townsfolk speak highly of the two dishes. It turned out that Mr. Wang was an excellent businessman. Drunken Cloud’s business was booming.

Mr. Wang exited the restaurant to entertain the guests when he saw Su Binglan walking past the door. He ran out excitedly and exclaimed, “Miss Binglan! W-Wait!”

Indeed, Mr. Wang had learned about the half-price and free sample business method from Su Binglan.
