Chapter 20 - Making Money

"Okay!"

Gu Nian began to miss her parents as she listened to Lin Sanshui's long-winded advice.

In the past, her parents were always like Lin Sanshui. They nagged her non-stop, and it made her feel very impatient.

However, when she left her parents' embrace, she finally understood how difficult to survive in society.

It was an uneasiness that came from the heart.

Fortunately, Gu Nian was not the only child. Her brother was still at home, so her parents could depend on him.

No matter how her family was in the modern world, she only hoped that her parents and brother would not be too sad because she was not around.

She would work hard to make herself live well in this ancient world.

As Gu Nian walked to the end of the street, she placed her basket on the side of the street and held a big peach in each hand.

She was tiny, and her hands were small as well. The peaches and her hands had an obvious contrast, and the peaches seemed to be bigger.

"Little girl, how much are your peaches?" Some people saw that she was cute, while others saw that the peaches were big and looked delicious. Soon, several people came to ask for the price.

Gu Nian did not sell them by weight and set the price at ten cents each.

She felt that the peaches produced by the interspace were different from ordinary wild fruits and were worth the price.

Not to mention the taste and effect, just the size of the peach alone was more than twice that of a wild peach.

However, the few people who came to ask for the price were scared away by her.

"Peach! Red, big, sweet, and crisp peaches! Everyone, come and take a look! Look! Red, big, and sweet immortal peaches!

A crisp and tender voice rang out from the side of the road.

Not far away, a luxurious yet low-key carriage drove over.

In the carriage, the black-clothed youth who had been resting with his eyes closed slowly opened his eyes. He raised his slender fingers and gently lifted the curtain of the window, looking in the direction of the sound.

The little girl had two small bags on her head, and her gray clothes were slightly loose on her body, making her look even more thin and weak. She kept on hawking her peaches. When she smiled, dimples appeared on both sides of her cheeks. She looked sweet enough to make people's hearts melt.

Especially that pair of big eyes. They were so bright as if there was light shining in them.

"Stop!" the young man ordered. His thin lips parted slightly, and his handsome face was unreadable.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" The coachman suddenly stopped the carriage, and the guard who followed outside carefully asked.

The lord in the carriage was not easy to serve.

However, due to his status, everyone took his order seriously.

"The peaches over there are pretty good. Go buy some." Nan Jinyu took a small piece of silver from his sleeve and threw it out, but it landed steadily in the guard's hand.

The guard was silent.

On this journey, the crown prince had been very picky about food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation. He had never paid for a tael of silver.

However, he was willing to pay silvers for peaches!

The guard nervously walked over to Gu Nian and handed her the silver. "Little girl, how many peaches do you have? Put them all in here."

Gu Nian's eyes brightened when she heard this. When she looked at the silver, she found herself in a difficult position. "Mister, I can't change your silver. Do you have any spare copper coins?"

The guard was afraid that the crown prince would be dissatisfied if he delayed any longer, so he said generously, "Keep the change. This is a gift from our young master. Hurry up and pack the peach. Don't let my master wait too long."

"Alright, thank you." Gu Nian happily placed the peaches in her hands into the basket on her back. Using her body as a cover, she quickly took out more than ten peaches from her interspace and placed them in the basket.
