Chapter 101 - 100: The Night Market Explodes
After Huang Dashan left, Lin Wan used a tricycle to pull the four bags of mushrooms home in two trips.
The next day, Huang Dashan came over happily early in the morning. Seeing that the shop wasn’t open, he sat at the door waiting.
But as he waited, he felt something was off. It was already past ten, and the store still hadn’t opened.
His first thought was that Lin Wan had tricked him. Luckily, he came over again today.
Huang Dashan was visibly angry and was about to leave when he thought better of it and decided to ask the small shop next door.
He generously bought himself a box of two-cent cigarettes, "Big sister, when does this store open?"
"They open in the afternoon, around two or three. Brother, if you want to eat, you’d better go elsewhere first. They run a night market and only operate at night."
"Operating only at night, isn’t it a waste to keep it closed during the day?"
"Oh dear brother, you’ve got it wrong. Their business is good. When it’s cold, they do hotpot. Now that it’s hot, hotpot’s not doable, so they concentrate on the night market with grilled dishes. Their business is brisk, and the food is tasty."
Huang Dashan left the small shop, the gloom on his face dissipating, and patiently waited till past two in the afternoon when the shop opened. "Brother Huang, when did you get here?"
"Not long ago, I just came to tell you, sis, your task—I’ve taken it."
