She was still setting up the stall by the Yuan River. The business was booming day by day. After half a month, the reputation of Ye Lulu's stall was already spreading at the docks.
The name, Malatang, was easy to remember as well. The people walking around said 'that stall selling Malatang over there.'
More people came over.
However, because Ye Lulu's stall was doing too well, it attracted the attention of some people. Some of the other vendors were jealous, and some people took action.
This morning, Ye Lulu's stall was filled with customers again.
A group of strong and fierce men was being arrogant. They pushed aside the dense crowd and swaggered over.
The men stopped in front of Ye Lulu's stall and placed their hands on their hips. They said to Ye Lulu with a smile,
"Young lady, your business is quite good."
Ye Lulu raised the corner of her eye and looked at these people. She was calm and knew that it was inevitable for people to come over and cause trouble when she was doing business.
Ye Lulu nodded and did not move.
The other party didn't need her to continue chatting. They said, "I've been looking at you for a few days. You're full of customers every day. You must have earned quite a lot of money, right? I reckon you can earn more than one or two taels a day. You're so young, but you're quite good at earning money."
The most domineering man, who was the leader, spoke in a casual tone and smiled as he spoke, but his attitude was obviously not that kind.
The surrounding commoners saw that something was wrong and silently took two steps back.
Ye Lulu replied. She did not say yes or no. Under everyone's gaze, she asked, "What do you want to do?"
The man slowly clenched his iron fist that was the size of a casserole pot. Then, he raised the corners of his mouth to Ye Lulu and said, "Oh, it's nothing. I saw that you guys have earned quite a lot of money these days. It can be considered our favor to you. Now, you can leave."
"Young lady, you still don't know, right? There are only a few stalls in the market at the docks. There are people who occupy them. You've opened a stall for a few days, so you must be new, right? Previously, we thought that you were new and didn't know better, so we gave you a few days to earn money. However, I have to tell you now that this place where you set up your stall was occupied by our brothers. You can't be unaware of the order of arrival, right? Since you've occupied our brothers' land, you have to return the stall now. Otherwise, don't blame our brothers for being rude."
Only then did a hint of fierceness appear in the man's eyes. It was accompanied by a warning, and his aura became fierce.
He revealed the muscles on his arm and raised his eyebrows at Ye Lulu.
The surrounding people who were watching in fear instantly started to whisper. So they were here for the stall…
Everyone knew what kind of stance these people had.
In the market at the docks, there were many stall positions that were fixed, but that was only a custom made by everyone. No one would fight over who had a stall at what position.
In any case, the docks were huge and there were people everywhere. There was really no lack of stalls.
Therefore, this group of people came over and insisted that someone had occupied the stall. That was intentional. Everyone knew that they were here to find fault.
Moreover, many people recognized this group of men… It was not rare to see them in the market at the docks. They were also famous bullies in Yuan City. They could not be considered bullies, but they were a group of people with bad reputations. They were tall and strong and had outstanding martial art skills.. It was said that there were people in their families who were officials and had some influence.
