I rely on the system to support my eighteen brothers and sisters

"Boss Zhou, please send this batch of pots to Qiaoji Snack Shop first."

Zhou the blacksmith said, "How can that be? This is someone else's order. If you need it, Boss Qiao, I'll make it for you again. Isn't it unfair for you to intercept it halfway?"

Qiao Linxi smiled slightly and said, "Boss Zhou, you sold this kind of pot to others without my permission. Is that fair of you to do so?"

Blacksmith Zhou was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Qiao Linxi said: "I came up with this kind of pot, so it is my patent. You are using my patent to make a profit, which is considered infringement in the eyes of the law. In other words, it is against the law."

"You... stop talking nonsense here."

"Boss Zhou should know whether I am talking nonsense or not. I don't want to hold you responsible. I am just anxious to get these pots. If Boss Zhou insists on sending them to someone else, we can only go to the county government to reason."

Qiao Linxi has a good relationship with the county magistrate, and everyone in Lanqing City knows this. Zhou the blacksmith looked a little unhappy. He thought Qiao Linxi was easy to talk to. But now he knows that he is a smiling tiger.

"It's not that I don't want to give Boss Zhou the money. It's just that I'm in a hurry to use it, so I have no choice but to resort to this last resort."

After saying that, Qiao Linxi took out a bag of silver from his pocket and said, "I'll pay double the money."

Blacksmith Zhou took the purse and shook it. He found that the weight was indeed twice as much, and his expression eased a little.

"Since Boss Qiao needs it urgently, I'll send it to Qiao's Snack Shop first. I'll tell them about the others and put them off for later."

Zhou the blacksmith's compromise made Qiao Linxi understand a truth instantly. Why do so many people like to take advantage of others' power? It's because it's really cool to use others' power to do your own things.

Even though her snack bar business is booming, in the eyes of the people in Lanqing City, she is just a powerless peasant girl.

This is also the reason why when Li Liangbin got into trouble, Mrs. Li only looked for her and avoided Liu Yongkang and his wife.

That's because she has no support and her foundation is shallow, so Madam Li doesn't take her seriously.

The couple were born and raised in Lanqing City, and although they were ordinary people, they were not without roots. Although Madam Li had a large family, she did not want to offend the locals of Lanqing City.

After dealing with the pot, Qiao Linxi rode his horse towards an inn.

Inside the inn, several bearded men were sitting around a charcoal fire.

"Hey, why is this damn place so cold? I'm almost freezing to death."

"I heard that the snack bar over there has introduced a new way of eating, called hot pot. How about we go and try it?"

"Come on, we've lost all our money, haven't we?"

"Hey, you say, why is this wild girl like this? The boss sent us to help her. Look, it's been so many days, and we are almost out of money to stay in the hotel. And she still doesn't come to see us."

"How about we reveal our identities? We can't outlast her if we just waste time like this."

"Come on, she's just a wild girl, why are we rushing to get close to her?"

"Yo...it's quite a lively conversation."

The sound of the door opening brought in a clear female voice.

When they looked up, they saw an incredibly beautiful woman walking over the threshold carrying several large bags in her hands.

"Boss Qiao."

Qiao Linxi smiled and walked in with her things in her hand: "Are you saying bad things about me?"

Several people shook their heads: "No, no..."

Qiao Linxi shrugged, put the things down, and then looked at these people and said, "What? You dare to do it but not to take responsibility? Where is the momentum you had when you came to my store and threatened me to destroy it?"

These people were none other than the ones who had caused trouble at Qiao Ji Snack Bar not long ago.

Unfortunately, these people were all from the Qiao family caravan, and were sent by Old Madam Qiao to come to Lanqing City to help Qiao Linxi.

But they were all members of the Qiao family caravan, and Qiao Linxi was just a country girl, so they were very unwilling. How could such a rural girl be qualified for their help?

So as soon as they arrived in Lanqing City, they went to find out what was wrong with Qiao Linxi.

"Hey, what did Boss Qiao say?"

"Okay, I didn't come to you just to see you smiling and joking, I have something serious to tell you."

After a pause, Qiao Linxi said, "Our store was smashed today."

"Ah? It was smashed? That has nothing to do with us. We didn't even go out."

"I didn't say it was you." Qiao Linxi waved her hand and said, "It was Madam Li who blamed me for her son running away from home, so she brought people to smash my store. I said that I would destroy the Li family's business within three months."

"what?"

Everyone was shocked and asked, "The Li family in Lanqing City is very powerful. Why did Boss Qiao confront them?"

"Boss Qiao? Shouldn't you call me Miss?"

Although Qiao Linxi was unwilling to be the eldest daughter of the Qiao family, with this title, the Qiao family caravan would cooperate with her.

"Boss Qiao knows our identities?"

Qiao Linxi: “Yeah.”

"Then Boss Qiao isn't angry?"

Qiao Linxi: “Not angry.”

After thinking for a while, Qiao Linxi asked: "Do you have anyone under your command who is absolutely reliable?"

Those people looked at each other, and then they started talking about the Qiao family caravan.

"Our Qiao family caravan seems to be one, but in fact it is divided into several levels. The Tiandi Xuanhuang, the Tian-level caravan is in charge of the most profitable business, such as jewelry. The Di-level caravan is in charge of cloth and food. As for Xuanhuang, it is basically some business that doesn't make much money but can't be lost."

"So, you are the lowest yellow level?"

When they first met, Qiao Linxi only knew that they were from the Qiao family caravan, and didn't know what level they were.

Seeing those people nodding awkwardly, Qiao Linxi sneered. This old lady Qiao really "loved" her and sent people to help her.

"Although we are from the Qiao family caravan, we basically cannot interfere with the Qiao family's business. We just do some things to support the heaven-level and earth-level caravans. To put it bluntly, we are just doing odd jobs. We fly the flag of the Qiao family caravan and take the meager silver. We can't make ends meet, but we won't starve to death either."

"You just need to answer me whether you have someone who is absolutely reliable."

Those people didn't know what Qiao Linxi was going to do, but they nodded anyway: "Yes. All of us have some relationship with the Qiao family. Although we can't get involved in big business, the Qiao family has never treated us unfairly. So we are very loyal to the Qiao family."

Qiao Linxi said: "I want people who are absolutely loyal to me, not to the Qiao family. If you are willing, you can work under me, and I will pay you a monthly salary directly."

"What does Boss Qiao want to do?"

Qiao Linxi smiled slightly: "Of course it's to make money."
