Chapter 481: Chapter 481: The Shopkeeper is Not Here Chapter 481: Chapter 481: The Shopkeeper is Not Here “???” Rabbit looked at them with a puzzled face.
It wasn’t that he didn’t try, he had tried but still couldn’t understand what the two of them were saying. Who would save him?
Li Wenli and Bai Junjun didn’t delay any longer and stood up to leave.
Before leaving, they didn’t forget to tell Rabbit, “Prepare so waterlon jam and give a bowl of waterlon sweet soup to anyone who cos to our house with a ssage as a reward.”
“Ah!” After listening for a long ti, Rabbit finally understood a sentence.
He couldn’t help but nod his head happily and turned to go to the kitchen.
However, as soon as he took a step, he scratched his head in confusion again. Weren’t they waiting for news? Why was he going to cook sweet soup?
Fortunately, the sweet soup was simple to make, and all of them knew how, so Rabbit didn’t face any obstacles while working.
anwhile, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli quickly made their way to Dongsheng Tavern.
At that ti, Shopkeeper Yan, who would always be the first to welco custors, was nowhere to be seen today.
The Waiter saw the two of them coming in and happily welcod them, “How co our distinguished guests are here today? The shopkeeper has gone for procurent, and she specifically instructed that if you ca, you should be directed to the best room with fine wine and dishes.”
Li Wenli slightly curled his lips, “With all this chaos, where has your shopkeeper gone for procurent?”
“Humph, a cat has its paths, a rat has its ways. We can’t just stop living because of the war, can we? Those of us in business naturally have our own channels.”
The Shop Assistant seed unaware of what was happening and continued to warmly greet Li Wenli and Bai Junjun.
The two of them didn’t say anything and followed the Shop Assistant’s lead to a private room on the second floor.
Upon arriving, Li Wenli asked, “By the way, I forgot to ask, does your shopkeeper also live here at Dongsheng Tavern?”
“Humph, only we live here, after all. It’s not convenient for Shopkeeper Yan to stay here since she’s a lady. She has her own separate residence near the South Gate Market, which is also convenient for her procurents.”
Bai Junjun raised an eyebrow. Dai County had two markets, the East Market and the South Market. They were in the East Market, the busiest area of Dai County, where ordinary people often shopped and made purchases.
The South Market was different. It was closer to the outskirts of the city, and most of the trade there was in bulk goods.
Many large households and taverns would do their bulk procurent there.
However, it was also noisier and more chaotic.
It was unexpected to learn that Shopkeeper Yan lived near the South Market.
“Is your shopkeeper living alone?”
“Not at all. It is said that Shopkeeper Yan used to have a husband, but he passed away from illness. Although she’s a frail woman, she has single-handedly supported the whole Dongsheng Tavern, which is quite remarkable.”
“Where is your shopkeeper from?”
“That… I don’t know. But from her accent, she should be from Old Capital City, I guess. Humph, let go place your order first, and then I can chat more with you two afterward!”
The Shop Assistant said this warmly as he left.
Li Wenli and Bai Junjun looked thoughtful.
“Speaking of which, we’ve been here for so long, and Shopkeeper Yan has taken good care of us, but we’ve never gone to see her. Instead of choosing a day, why not just go visit her now?”
“It’s a good idea, but I’m afraid Shopkeeper Yan might not have ti to entertain us.”
“What’s the problem? We’ll just bring our food and drinks over.”
The two of them imdiately got into action, following the Shop Assistant and instructing him to pack the food as quickly as possible, as they wanted to take it with them.
The Shop Assistant was confused but still went ahead and did as they asked.
After receiving the food box, the two of them said they would return it that evening and then lifted their robes and ran towards the South Market.
