Shocking! The entire court was drooling with envy because of me.

The doctor shook his head slightly: "It's difficult. I can only prescribe some nourishing medicine to drink slowly. As for the effect, it will probably take a long time. Also, the patient should not be sad and cry anymore, as it is extremely bad for the eyes."

Mrs. Shen lowered her head slightly; upon hearing this, she was somewhat disappointed.

After all, what blind person doesn't want to regain their sight?

"However, the Ghost Doctor might have a solution; you can give it a try," the doctor added out of compassion.

"A ghost doctor?? Where can I find a ghost doctor?"

"Rumor has it that the Ghost Doctor lives in the Ghost Market. You might find something if you go there and ask around. However, I must warn you, the Ghost Doctor charges extremely high prices for his treatments. He won't do anything without three to five hundred taels of gold."

Three to five hundred taels of gold—that's an astronomical price.

You should know that Grandma Sun's Yangchun noodles only cost three coins a bowl. At that price, you could eat more than a million bowls of Yangchun noodles, more than one person could eat in a lifetime.

"It's too expensive. I promise I won't cry anymore. I'll just have to take care of myself." Shen's mother quickly said, holding Shen Qing's hand.

She was afraid that Shen Qing would borrow money for her eyes, and her family couldn't afford to pay it back right now.

Shen Qing patted her mother's hand reassuringly: "Mother, remember this, you must never cry again. You'll get better with time."

She doesn't have the money to see the Ghost Doctor right now, so she can only try her best to complete the system's tasks and save up some money as soon as possible.

It's good that this time it stopped Shen's mother from crying.

After taking the medicine home and decocting it, Shen Qing opened the system to prepare ingredients for his stall the next day.

[Ding—Host has completed today's stall setup. Task completion progress (598/1000)]

[Ding—The daily limit for purchasing ingredients has been increased to 600 servings]

Shen Qing didn't hesitate and directly purchased 600 portions, since crispy fried chicken was currently in high demand and short supply.

If sales are good, we can complete the first task of the system tomorrow.

It's a brand new day again!

As dawn broke, a considerable number of people arrived at the morning market, which is quite unusual.

Suddenly, one of the diners had a brilliant idea: "Gentlemen, why don't we line up in advance? That way, we won't waste time when Madam Shen arrives."

"But with so many of us, who should be in front and who should be in the back?" someone asked.

"Alright, this is Madam Shen's stall. Let's all make excuses and run together. Whoever gets to the front of the line first, how about that?"

"Great idea!"

A large group of people arrived at the street corner.

A kind stall owner nearby helped call out "Start!"

As soon as the shouts rang out, the crowd galloped like wild horses, and in the end, the diner who made the suggestion still came in first.

"You, you, I have a feeling you cheated," someone asked breathlessly.

The first diner said, "This is the way everyone agrees on, but I forgot to mention that I'm particularly good at running."

Everyone: "..."

Oh well, anyway, we can buy their spots, so it's good that we can.

Soon, a long queue formed, but the front of the queue was empty; the stall owner, Shen Qing, hadn't set off yet.

Wang Yueshu and her husband brought Wang Yuan to the morning market early in the morning.

"Brother, hurry up!" Xie Bantou said anxiously.

Wang Yuan frowned: "Is it really necessary to be so early? It's not even dawn yet."

"Oh my dear brother!" Wang Yueshu was so anxious she almost jumped up. "Look how long the line is! We have to hurry and join the queue, or we won't get any food."

Wang Yuan looked around and, sure enough, there were many people queuing up.

Upon closer inspection, there was no stall at the very front of the line.

"The stall owner hasn't arrived yet? That's ridiculous!"

"Brother, stop asking and let's go." Xie Ban Tou didn't have time to answer Wang Yuan's question and hurriedly pulled him to join the queue.

He absolutely has to eat sweet and spicy crispy fried chicken today!!

"Head constable!!" someone shouted from behind, and it was none other than Li Xiaoer and his group of constables.

A group of people ran very fast, jostling and pushing each other to get to the front of the line.

Wang Yuan was even more stunned: "There's a case at the morning market??"

"No, they're all here to eat fried chicken," Xie Bantou explained casually, without stopping.

Wang Yuan was completely shocked. Good heavens, this freshly fried chicken was surprisingly potent.

Shen Qing had a lot of chicken to process today, so he set up his stall a little later than usual.

When she arrived, she saw a long queue in front of her stall.

They actually lined up early today?

Shen Qing was somewhat surprised, but then she thought that it must have been spontaneously done by the diners.

"Today we're still serving two flavors of fried chicken: sweet and spicy, and hot and spicy," Shen Qing said with a smile.

The diners couldn't wait any longer and immediately shouted, "Two spicy dishes, please!"

"One sweet and spicy, one fragrant and spicy!"

"One sweet and spicy one, and one of that soda from yesterday, please!"

"..."

Standing in the queue, Wang Yuan couldn't help but look around curiously and asked, "Happy water? What's that?"

"It's a drink, but it looks dark to me, so it probably doesn't taste good," Wang Yueshu replied.

The color of that soda was rather off-putting; it looked too strange.

Hearing the conversation, Li Xiaoer leaned over and whispered, "I'll let you in on a secret: Happy Water is so delicious! It's amazing and tastes amazing. You absolutely have to buy some when you get the chance; it's totally worth it."

"Really?" Wang Yueshu asked doubtfully.

Xie Bantou: "I'm pretty sure I'm right. That kid Li Xiaoer drank all of his soda yesterday. If it wasn't good, he would have shared it with the other brothers. Let's try it today."

"Then I'll try it," Wang Yuan decided.

There's nothing in Ping'an County that he hasn't tried yet.

The line moved slowly until it finally reached Xie Bantou and the others.

"One spicy, one sweet and spicy, and a refreshing drink." Xie Bantou ordered his and his wife's portions first.

As for the soda, I'll have a sample to try first. If it's good, I'll buy more tomorrow.

She then turned to Wang Yuan and asked, "Brother, what do you want?"

Wang Yuan was already immersed in the aroma of fried chicken. As he got closer, the fragrance of oil, meat, and seasoning kept wafting into his nose, making him feel like he was floating on air.

"Brother!" Wang Yueshu nudged Wang Yuan when she saw him staring blankly.

Wang Yuan then came to his senses. After thinking about it, he realized that the spicy flavor from yesterday was so delicious that he wanted to eat it again, but he also wanted to try the sweet and spicy flavor.

After hesitating for a while, he said directly, "One spicy, one sweet and spicy, and one soda."

"Then two spicy, two sweet and spicy, and two soft drinks!!" Xie Bantou hurriedly said.
