In Shuiqiao Village at this time.

Su Cai'er was at her new home, entertaining fellow villagers who came to chat with her.

While Zhao Ce was away, Zhao Youcai and the others helped demolish the patio and rebuild it.

Now there is a small kitchen and a livestock shed.

The old hen brought by Uncle Six's house is also kept there at night.

But during the day, I put it in the front yard.

Su Cai'er had previously said that she wanted to raise more chickens. While doing her sewing, Mrs. Li said, "When spring comes next year, I will go to your fourth wife and buy some chicks."

"At that time, we raised chickens until the Chinese New Year, and they were just ready to be killed and eaten."

The little lady next to me also said: "Yes, winter is coming now, and it's not easy to make ends meet."

"By the way, Cai'er, please tell us about things in Fucheng."

Su Cai'er is someone who has been to Fucheng, and she is no longer the same as before.

Now the young ladies in the village are vaguely led by her.

Everyone gathered around her, doing needlework and asking all kinds of questions.

Su Cai'er mentioned that when they were in Fucheng, they lived in the house of Fucheng's master.

Many people are envious.

"Cai'er, do you all know the big man in Fucheng?"

"This Zhao Ce is so promising that even the lord of Fucheng will give you a house to live in."

Su Caier said with a smile: "Because my husband helped Master Cao's family, Master Cao let us live in his house."

Su Cai'er told about the poisoning of Mr. Cao and others, and how Zhao Ce saved people.

After hearing this, everyone present was amazed.

Then I heard what Su Cai'er said about going to the temple for free accommodation. After hearing this, everyone was fascinated.

After chatting for a while, everyone's mouths were dry.

Su Cai'er said happily: "Let me get everyone some water to drink."

After saying that, he put down his things and prepared to go to the side to pour water for everyone.

A young lady saw the way Su Cai'er walked and said a little strangely: "Cai'er's walking seems different from before."

"When you say that, it seems to be true..."

People nearby also gathered around and took a look.

"It's going so fast, it doesn't seem like it was before?"

Everyone was chattering and discussing.

Mrs. Li on the side heard this and said proudly: "Our Cai'er is lucky. She followed Ce'er to Fucheng and met a miracle doctor who cured her leg!"

"Is it cured? This leg has been broken for so long, can it still be cured?"

"Isn't it? Otherwise, how can you say he is a miracle doctor?"

After hearing this, the others also followed Li's words and talked about Su Cai'er's good fortune.

For a moment, the whole hall was in a happy mood.

...

After Zhao Ce listened to Wu Xueli's words in the school, he quickly thought of some key points.

You can start from Su Cai'er and spread these words.

The most suitable candidate that Zhao Ce could think of was Su Changxing, who had always wanted to give him a kick back.

Zhao Ce said: "Brother Xueli, could you please help me investigate this matter?"

Wu Xueli patted his chest and said, "What's this?"

"I've been investigating it since I heard about it."

"I have a little idea now."

"Give me another two days, and I will definitely be able to confirm for you who spread the news first!"

Zhao Ce nodded and said, "Thank you very much."

Wu Xueli waved his hand.

"You don't have to worry too much."

"Don't everyone in our class mind this?"

Qiu Shubai also nodded and said, "Indeed, you don't have to be distracted by these things."

"It's better to concentrate on preparing for next year's exam."

Although he heard about this bad thing as soon as he came back, the attitude of the classmates around him warmed Zhao Ce's heart a lot.

Zhao Ce smiled and said: "In a few days, I will treat you to dinner."

Wu Xueli, the "Dinner Date Maniac", laughed and said, "Then it's settled."

After the matter was settled, the three of them walked out of the school together.

Zhao Ce went to the store to take a look again.

Not long ago, the store launched new products, which attracted a new wave of people.

It’s just that in the past few days, the number of people coming to buy has significantly decreased.

The time it takes to open a store is getting longer and longer.

When Zhao Ce arrived, the store was not closed yet and there were no customers inside.

Seeing Zhao Ce coming, Ah Wu, who was greeting guests at the door, hesitated a little before walking up.

"Boss, are you back?"

Zhao Ce saw all his actions, nodded and said, "Is the shopkeeper here?"

Ah Wu said: "Shopkeeper Zhao is settling accounts at the counter."

After Zhao Ce heard this, he walked in directly.

When Zhao Wensheng saw Zhao Ce coming back, he was very surprised and put down the abacus in his hand.

"Finally back."

Zhao Ce smiled and chatted with him for a while.

Seeing that there was little business in the store, Zhao Wensheng pulled Zhao Ce into the inner room.

After pouring a cup of tea, I slowly talked to him.

Zhao Ce looked at the gift boxes on the shelves outside and asked, "Business has been bad recently?"

Zhao Wensheng sighed after hearing this.

"The number of people has indeed decreased in the past few days."

"But because of what you said before, I have also reduced the supply quantity."

"From 200 boxes per day, it has been reduced to 150 boxes, but it is still announced that the sales limit is 200 boxes."

Zhao Wensheng's method was also a helpless move.

He always kept in mind what Zhao Ce said before leaving, in order to maintain what Zhao Ce said before, the "strong style" of their store.

That's why we came up with this strategy.

The daily opening hours of the store have been extended by one hour.

But in the past two days, business has been getting worse and worse.

After all, what they do in their store is business for middle-to-high-end people.

Most of these people have scholars at home.

Due to recent rumors in the city, Zhao Ce's reputation has been greatly affected.

Even the store's business has been affected.

After hearing this, Zhao Ce nodded and said, "Brother Wensheng, thank you for your hard work during this time."

Zhao Wensheng smiled bitterly.

"You just came back and have already heard those words?"

These words began to spread among scholars.

Some people even come to their stores to confirm.

Zhao Wensheng learned about this because of this.
