Chapter 151: Buy the Store

Hearing the shopkeeper’s words, Lin Yuelan’s calm eyes immediately turned sharp.

Did everyone think she was easy to bully? Everyone could point at her and scold her at will?

Little twelve also looked at the shopkeeper angrily and said, “how can you do this? We’re customers, and we’re here to buy something!” This was too much bullying. They had been kicked out as soon as they entered the store. This was a complete insult.

The shopkeeper looked at them arrogantly and said with disdain, “I’d rather have cats and dogs in here than her. What bad luck! Get out of here right now. Don’t block my other guests!” The shop owner pointed at Lin Yuelan.

Little twelve was so angry that his face turned green. He wanted to rush over and hit the shopkeeper, but he was stopped by Lin Yuelan.

Since her reputation as the jinx had spread, she expected this treatment. Practically the whole town would treat her like this, and she couldn’t solve every conflict with violence.

Lin Yuelan’s eyes turned sharp as she said to the shopkeeper in a sonorous and cold voice, “please remember the humiliation you’ve caused me today. In the future, when you need my help, I’ll make you kneel and kowtow to me in public. I’ll make you apologize to me in public!”

The shopkeeper sneered and said to her in a mocking tone, “You really are crazy. There’s no way I’ll beg you!” At this point, he roared again, “Get lost!”

Lin Yuelan left. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to teach the shopkeeper a lesson, but she believed the man would only learn if she broke him mentally and not physically. The shopkeeper really needed to understand that fate was unpredictable.

If he had persuaded Lin Yuelan to leave, Lin Yuelan would have obliged. She was not an unreasonable person. She knew the influence of her reputation. However, this shopkeeper was too arrogant and self-righteous and insulted Lin Yuelan in a humiliating way. Lin Yuelan was no mat for people to stomp on. Therefore, in the future, she would definitely take revenge for the insult she had suffered today.

Lin Yuelan went to another cloth shop.

The assistant recognized Lin Yuelan as soon as she entered the shop. Even though Lin Yuelan had only been to town thrice, she had left a deep impression on people. She carried the tiger to town and bought many things. She had visited all the best stores in town. Lin Yuelan wanted to buy the best stuff. In this small town, there were only that many businesses. Therefore, basically, all the shopkeepers knew Lin Yuelan.

The assistant knew about Lin Yuelan’s divine power, but he was more afraid of her reputation as a jinx. Her presence in the shop was taboo, but he was open for business. There was no reason for him to chase her out.

The assistant smiled and asked, “Miss Lin, what do you want to buy this time?” Lin Yuelan had visited this shop before.

Lin Yuelan glanced at the clothes and fabrics in the shop and asked in confusion, “assistant, why are the clothes in the shop all so old?”

The assistant said with some reluctance and sadness, “Jinyun Ge’s business has been snatched away by Xiangyun Ge, so there’s not much business. The shopkeeper is thinking of selling the shop. But this is his 30 years of hard work. He’s been reluctant to put it on sale. However, he hasn’t bought any new materials, so we’ve been selling old clothes and models.”

Lin Yuelan asked, “How could Xiangyun Ge steal your business? As far as I know, the Jinyun Ge is an established brand in Ning An Town.”

The assistant became furious and cursed, “The shopkeeper of Xiangyun Ge is really shameless. He stole the best tailors and designers we had. If there were people who didn’t want to leave, the shopkeeper would use some underhanded method to force them to leave Jinyun Ge!”
