By the time everyone left, there were no more vegetables in Xiao Lingyu’s warehouse. Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and retrieved a small portion from the farming space.

As Xiao Lingyu approached the tree where she normally stopped, she saw many people standing or sitting there. Some had small carts with them. The crowd was larger than before.

Someone saw Xiao Lingyu and shouted, “The miss is here!” Then, the crowd rushed over to swarm Xiao Lingyu.

People noticed there was less stock on the tricycle than before. Someone asked, “Miss, why are there so few crops today?”

Xiao Lingyu smiled apologetically, “I had already sold some before I arrived! So this is all that’s left today.”

“How much did you sell earlier? Most of your tricycle is already empty!”

“It was around 400 catties!” Xiao Lingyu said.

“So much?!”

“Today will be my last day setting up stall for a while. I’ll return to the county town sometime later.” Xiao Lingyu announced.

“What? Then, I need to stock up. If my children don’t have your vegetables to eat, they will lose their temper.”

“Same here!”

Instantly, the crowd’s shopping list grew. The vegetables were quickly snatched away.

“Hey, I got that first. Don’t steal it from me!”

“I got it first.”

“No, I did!”

People started to fight for the vegetables like they were gold. The vegetables were expensive, but they were delicacies for children and pregnant women. They were worth every penny.

After someone got their portion, they said, “Miss, when will you be coming back?”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head. “That’s hard to say.” She had more stock in her farming space, but she didn’t want to attract unnecessary attention. Her three consecutive days of conducting business had already attracted some people’s attention. Therefore, she would keep the crops in the farming space for now.

Moreover, Xiao Lingyu wanted to go back to Taoyuan Village to see how their gardening sheds were coming along. Also, she had to deal with the strawberry seedlings. She kept a small portion of the strawberry seedlings in the farming space. She planned to grow them there for a while. When the shed was ready, she would transplant them.

Before Xiao Lingyu reached the market, she had already sold out.

Xiao Lingyu had no idea there was a conspiracy waiting for her at the market. Two UMALE officers were sitting inside a vegetable shop. The younger of the two took out a notebook and looked around. Then, he asked a short and fat man, “Big Brother, where is the person you mentioned?”

Li Daqiang glanced at the spot where Xiao Lingyu normally set up her stall. There were some people standing there. They were probably waiting for Xiao Lingyu to arrive.

Li Dajiang narrowed her beady eyes. “She’s not here yet.”

Li Dazhi glanced at his watch. “It’s already so late. Brother, is she not coming?”

Li Daqiang said, “She will come. She has been here for two days already. Dazhi, you have to teach her a lesson for setting up by the roadside and scamming people with expensive vegetables!”

The girl had crowds fighting for her vegetables despite their crazy prices. This meant that Li Daqiang had no business left. Therefore, she needed to be taught a lesson. It was why Li Daqiang called his younger brother, who was a UMALE officer. They would confiscate her stock and give her a heavy fine. That would teach her a lesson for trying to provoke him by setting up a stall in front of his shop!
