Chapter 284 Marshal Luo Sets Up a Stall at the Market
After hearing what she said, Lu Guihuang looked at Luo Ying with more appreciation, and asked worriedly: "But, this process will be full of thorns and ups and downs, and you will experience many setbacks and blows."
Luo Ying said with a firm look in his eyes: "Didn't I experience enough setbacks and blows along the way, whether in my real world or in the heavens? How can you know that you can't do it if you haven't tried hard? It doesn't matter what others think of us, and it doesn't matter what they say. From beginning to end, we have only one enemy, ourselves. Which road to success is smooth? The more thorns and bumps a road has, the fewer people will walk on it, the fewer competitors there will be, and the greater the chance of success. I have never been afraid of tossing and waiting, nor am I afraid of setbacks and blows. I am just afraid that the direction I choose is wrong and it will waste time."
Luo Ying squeezed Lu Guihuang's arm and said firmly, "Brother Guihuang, don't worry. As long as you can guide me on the road ahead and keep me from going astray, that will be the greatest help to me."
Lu Guihuang held her hand tightly and said, "Don't worry about this. I'm by your side and won't let you go astray."
The two smiled at each other. Luo Ying said to Xiao Qingxiu and Shao Hanyue: "Then let's go!"
Shao Hanyue looked at Luo Ying and reminded her: "Wearing women's clothes like this, do you still dare to go to the market? Have you forgotten what happened at the market last time..."
Luo Ying came back to his senses and said, "That's right! It's safer to change into men's clothes."
After saying that, he waved his hand and changed himself and Luo Ying into men's clothes.
The four of them came to the market together, set up a small stall, and placed the wine glasses for tasting. However, people were coming and going in the market, but no one came forward. Luo Ying frowned, with a worried look on his face.
Shao Hanyue asked worriedly: "What should I do? I can't attract anyone at all!"
Lu Guihuang laughed and said, "When doing business, how can you wait for customers to come? You naturally have to learn how to shout to attract customers!"
Luo Ying smiled awkwardly and asked helplessly: "How do you advertise? In my industry in the real world, customers come to me on their own initiative. I have never set up a street stall! Haha."
Lu Guihuang waved his hands helplessly and said, "I really don't know how to promote this business. Usually, the Nine Gods of Wealth report to me, and I really have never been to the front line to experience it."
Luo Ying's eyes were moist with emotion as he said, "Brother Gui Huang, thank you for letting me, the God of Wealth, to set up a stall with you."
Lu Guihuang hooked her nose and said, "Little fool, I didn't help you in any way, why are you so touched?"
Luo Ying's nose was sore, and he said with emotion: "I am very touched that you are willing to put down your status and accompany me despite my willfulness."
Hearing this, Lu Guihuang felt a warm current in his heart. He hugged Luo Ying in his arms and comforted her, saying, "No matter what you want to do, I will be by your side and support you silently!"
Luo Ying couldn't stop her tears from falling after hearing this. Lu Guihuang wiped her tears with a distressed look and said gently, "It's just that this journey will be very difficult. I can't bear to see you suffer."
Hearing what he said, Luo Ying quickly wiped away her tears and said firmly, "This is just the beginning! If we back down, isn't that the same as giving up?"
So Luo Ying picked up the wine cup for tasting and invited the passing guests to taste the wine. Shao Hanyue and Xiao Qingxiu saw Luo Ying taking the initiative to invite people to taste the wine, so they followed her example and invited others to taste the wine. Seeing Luo Ying's unyielding attitude, Lu Guihuang's love for her increased unconsciously. Luo Ying took out a pen and paper and carefully recorded the feedback from the guests.
Lu Guihuang looked at her working diligently, his eyes full of love, and thought to himself: "I was right about you, you are really a treasure girl! The more we get along, the more I am fascinated by you."
After a long time, Xiao Qingxiu suddenly said, "Wow! I talked too much and my mouth is dry. I forgot to bring some water."
Lu Guihuang then came to his senses and said, "I'll go buy some water for you right away." After that, he left the stall.
Shao Hanyue said to Luo Ying excitedly: "Sister, many people still say that our wine is delicious!"
Luo Ying smiled happily, looked at the records on the paper and said, "There are still many suggestions for improvement. I will improve them when I go back."
At this time, a few hooligans pushed aside the customers who were trying the drinks, walked straight towards them, and said fiercely: "Don't you know that you have to collect protection fees for setting up stalls in the market?"
Luo Ying looked at them in surprise and asked, "What do you mean by protection money? It's not easy for ordinary people to make a little money by setting up stalls! They have to pay you their hard-earned money as protection money. It's too unfair!"
A middle-aged woman at a nearby stall pulled Luo Ying's sleeve and reminded her worriedly, "Don't argue with them. They are bullies here and they are unreasonable."
Luo Ying looked at her gratefully and said, "Thank you, sister. I will have a good talk with them today."
The leading bully heard Luo Ying's arrogant words and grabbed her collar and said, "My words are the law in this street. Are you tired of living? How dare you teach me a lesson?"
Luo Ying shouted angrily: "Take your dirty hands away."
Xiao Qingxiu was about to take action.
The bully had been kicked to the ground. Luo Ying looked back and saw that it was Gui Moyun who did it. Zhenwu Emperor stood behind him, his face gloomy, looking coldly at the bullies. Zhenwu Emperor gave She Huaichuan a look.
She Huaichuan immediately stepped forward and slapped the man several times, angrily scolding: "How dare you touch our people from the General's Mansion? Do you want to die?"
All the ruffians were so scared that they knelt on the ground, trembling with fear, and kowtowed to the Great Emperor Zhenwu, saying, "Duke Zhenguo, please spare my life! Duke Zhenguo, please spare my life!"
Gui Moyun drew his sword and pointed it at the leading thug on the ground, and asked the Great Emperor Zhenwu: "Duke Zhenguo, do we need to chop off the hand of this lunatic that touched Miss Luo?"
The Great Emperor Zhenwu nodded.
Gui Moyun swung his knife to chop him, but Luo Ying quickly blocked the way and said to the Zhenwu Emperor, "I told you before not to kill people at will. Did you forget?"
Zhenwu Emperor waved his hand, Gui Moyun put away the sword in his hand, and She Huaichuan shouted: "Get out of here!"
The hooligans knelt down and kowtowed, preparing to leave. Luo Ying called out to them, "Wait a moment."
The hooligans looked at her one after another, and Luo Ying said righteously: "From now on, this whole street is not allowed to collect protection fees anymore."
The hooligans were stunned for a moment, and She Huaichuan scolded them loudly, "Don't you understand what Miss Luo said? If you make things difficult for Miss Luo, you are making things difficult for our Zhenguogong."
The thug immediately kowtowed and trembled as he replied, "I understand!"
She Huaichuan shouted angrily: "Get out of here!"
The hooligans quickly ran away in all directions.
The whole street cheered and all the vendors shouted loudly: "The Duke of Zhenguo is mighty! The Duke of Zhenguo is mighty!"
Emperor Zhenwu walked to Luo Ying's wine stall and looked at her stall. An intriguing smile appeared on his face. He picked up the wine tasting cup, took a sip, and his eyes lit up. He praised: "I didn't expect that Marshal Luo is not only good at leading troops, but also has such great winemaking skills!"
Luo Ying smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm so embarrassed to be laughed at by the Duke of Zhenguo!"
The Great Emperor Zhenwu put his arm around Luo Ying's waist and lifted her chin, leaning close to her and whispering, "But...if Hua Yuchen knew that his little wife was selling wine at the market, what would he think?"
Luo Ying was so embarrassed that he stammered, "This... This is my new career... He has no right to interfere."
The Great Emperor Zhenwu continued to approach her and asked, "Is it impossible to control it, or is it impossible to control it? You came to the mortal world secretly this time, right?"
Luo Ying looked at him in horror and asked, "How...how did you know?"
Emperor Zhenwu said proudly: "Since you came to me to learn how to use the Kunlun Mirror, I knew that you deliberately got rid of him and sneaked to the mortal world. Otherwise, why would he allow other suitors to follow you?"
He raised his head and looked at Lu Guihuang who was returning from a distance.
