The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 634 - 631: Xin Lin’s Countermeasure (Bonus - for 200 Monthly Tickets)
Chu Mansion appeared to be just an ordinary household, but the backyard of Chu Mansion was somewhat special.
Especially the Purple Cloud Cabbage growing in the ground.
One has seen plenty of cabbages, but never one so brimming with Spiritual Energy.
"No wonder Chu’s Restaurant’s Spiritual Delicacy Buns sell so well, it’s all because of these cabbages."
A shadowy figure chuckled coldly.
With a wave of his hand, all those Purple Cloud Cabbages were uprooted from the ground.
The next morning, outside De Yue Building, several helpers brought out a large steamer.
"Starting today, De Yue Building will offer, in limited quantity, White Jade Vegetable Buns. These buns have an absolutely authentic flavor, each for one silver, fair and square."
Master Chen personally led the sales, shouting at the entrance of De Yue Building, immediately attracting many patrons.
Since Chu’s Restaurant started selling buns, the business of De Yue Building’s Spiritual Food Buns had plummeted drastically.
"Isn’t this Chu’s Restaurant’s White Jade Steamed Bun?"
A few patrons stepped forward to look; these people had also bought buns from Chu’s Restaurant.
Chu’s Restaurant had not opened for the past few days, leaving the patrons feeling anxious.
Upon seeing that De Yue Building also had White Jade Steamed Buns, they couldn’t wait to buy several.
"Delicious, just as tasty as those from Chu’s Restaurant."
The patrons praised unanimously after trying them.
Seeing this, a gleam of joy flashed across Master Chen’s face.
Nearly a thousand buns were sold out in no time.
"Didn’t I tell you? The secret to Chu’s Restaurant’s success lies in those cabbages."
Inside De Yue Building, Master Jiu displayed a smug expression early in the morning.
"With Master Jiu’s move, truly remarkable. Those cabbages are indeed special—I’ve even reserved a batch of seeds and ordered people to plant them. The remaining cabbages will be enough for about ten days’ worth of buns."
Master Chen’s face was filled with happiness.
He had thought that Chu’s Restaurant had some exceptional secret, but it turned out it was just superior ingredients.
This batch of cabbages was the most extraordinary he had ever seen. Without the cabbages, what could Ma Jingtian possibly compete with him?
Furthermore, he planned to make some buns the next morning to send to the Empress.
Earlier, the Empress had been inquiring about who made the White Jade Steamed Buns.
Master Chen had already thought of a plan, to claim they were made by De Yue Building. As long as he could cling to the lofty branch of the Imperial Palace, De Yue Building would hereinafter be Zixiao’s top Spiritual Food Restaurant, number one in Longteng!
Master Chen became more and more pleased with himself.
Inside Qingtian Academy, Xin Lin had just received news from Ma Jingtian.
Last night, someone had broken into Chu Mansion and stolen all the Purple Cloud Cabbage to the root.
Now, early in the morning, it was said that De Yue Building had identical White Jade Steamed Buns.
Ma Jingtian sent someone to buy a few and found that they were almost exactly the same as those from Chu’s Restaurant. Needless to say, it was clear who stole the cabbages. He was so anxious that he was running around in circles, clamoring to report it to the authorities.
Xin Lin asked him to calm down and wait a little longer.
Early the next morning, Empress Feng went to visit the Empress Dowager with a few fresh White Jade Steamed Buns.
In Jingchao Palace, she ran into Shi Pin, who also came to present White Jade Steamed Buns.
"Empress Dowager, I have brought a few White Jade Steamed Buns as well. They are from De Yue Building, to pay respects to Your Majesty. After this, there is no need for Shi to deliver them day in and day out."
Empress Feng cast a glance at Shi Pin.
Thinking of winning the Empress Dowager’s favor with buns, she might as well save the effort.
Shi Pin smiled faintly, saying nothing more.
"Oh? De Yue Building now has vegetable buns too? That’s something I must try."
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager gestured for Empress Feng to present the White Jade Vegetable Buns from De Yue Building, and took a bite.
