He discovered that there were no live chickens or ducks for sale in the market.

I asked the stall owner and learned that the island nation's laws require poultry to be processed in a regular slaughterhouse before they can be sold, and the sale of live poultry in the market is prohibited to ensure hygiene and disease control.

Su You looked at the pre-cut chicken pieces in the freezer and shook her head.

Just as he was about to leave, the stall owner called him back.

"Guest, it's not like there's absolutely no way out."

"Oh?"

"As long as you have a chef's certificate or a student ID from a culinary school, you can go directly to the farm to buy it."

"I see, thank you for letting me know."

After thanking the stall owner, Su Youchao left the poultry section.

Transferring to a culinary school or something like that is a bit unrealistic.

After all, he had worked hard to obtain his current status as a high school student in Toyonosaki.

However, the information provided by this helpful stall owner was not entirely useless.

I can try to get to know one or two chef friends in the future.

Or you could go directly to the slaughterhouse and ask if you could get some odd jobs there...

A moment later, Su You arrived at the aquatic product area.

There are quite a few live fish and shrimp here, and the prices are cheaper than what I saw at the Seto Suisan store last night.

"What kind of fish would you like to buy, sir?"

An uncle wearing an apron was cleaning fish while greeting customers.

Su You stood in front of the stall watching him kill fish and asked:

Are all the fish here freshly killed?

"Of course!"

"If I buy fish, can I kill it myself?"

"Kill the fish yourself? Hey buddy, we don't charge you for cleaning the fish!"

Su You insisted, "I know, but I want to kill the fish myself, is that okay?"

The stall owner glanced at the Toyosaki school uniform he was wearing and suddenly asked, "You want to be a chef?"

In this world, being a chef is not an ordinary profession that you can just decide to pursue.

Su You paused for a moment, then said, "Yes, I want to be a chef in the future."

"I see." The uncle skillfully gutted the fish, removing its internal organs, and said with a hint of understanding, "So, you want to pursue culinary training?"

"Yes!"

"Alright, I got it. But killing fish isn't as simple as it looks, so be careful."

Su You nodded: "Yes, thank you, Uncle."

"No need to thank me, but the path of a chef isn't easy. Back in my day..."

The stall owner sighed, his eyes filled with a hint of reminiscence.

Su You glanced at him and could tell that this stall owner uncle seemed to have once dreamed of being a chef.

But he eventually became a fishmonger, killing fish at this stall day after day.

Su You didn't disturb the stall owner's reminiscence and browsed around the stall on her own.

A 3-pound skipjack tuna.

Su You pressed the fish onto the cutting board and picked up a kitchen knife.

He must have loved eating fish in his past life, and he had prepared fish at home many times, so he knew what he was doing.

Knife up and down.

A crisp sound rang out.

Two more copper coins burst from the fish's corpse and fell to the ground.

The stall owner stood beside him watching, and seeing that he was indeed skilled, he nodded slightly.

Su You glanced at the stall owner and, seeing that he was indeed completely oblivious to the two copper coins that had just been revealed, felt relieved.

Just as he guessed, not only snakes, but also fish could be identified as monsters and drop money.

After carefully processing the skipjack tuna, Su You reached out and seemingly casually stroked the ground, putting the two copper coins into her wallet in her inventory.

[0 gold coins, 0 silver coins, 14 bronze coins]

Great, I've earned another 2 copper coins.

The future looks bright for millionaires.

Su You paid the money and thanked the stall owner again.

The stall owner waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, just a small matter."

Su You asked, "Then next time?"

The stall owner chuckled and said, "Of course, you can do it next time too."

After saying goodbye to the stall owner, Su You left the market.

He took out his phone and followed the navigation to a nearby park.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Su You put the fish meat in her hand into her inventory.

He then began his insect-catching business in the park.

Beetles, spiders, butterflies, caterpillars...

Su You searched for every insect she could find in the park and mercilessly exterminated them.

However, not a single copper coin was produced by nightfall.

Su You straightened up, twisted her sore waist and neck, and muttered to herself, "It seems that it's not a problem with the drop rate, but that the bugs simply don't drop any money."

But both snakes and fish are acceptable.

Perhaps it's related to their size; money can only be obtained when the target's size exceeds a certain limit.

Su You sighed.

It seems the idea of ​​using Ant Nest to make money is doomed to fail.

That's all for today, it's time to go back.

Before leaving the park, take your backpack out of the storage compartment.

Already feeling a bit tired, Su You didn't want to squeeze onto the subway anymore, so she took a taxi home instead.

Su You got out of the car at the apartment entrance and saw the landlady.

She was holding a bag and sprinkling strange powder into the corner of the wall.

"Miss Lily, what are you doing?"

"Su Jun! This is snake repellent powder! I'm going to sprinkle it all over the apartment! That way, no more snakes will sneak into anyone's rooms!"

"Oh."

The snake repellent powder came in a woven bag, which the landlady, with her childlike figure, could only drag around.

Su You watched her struggling back and walked towards her.

"Let me help you, Miss Lily."

"Thank you, Mr. Su!"

Su You reached out and took the bag of snake repellent powder from the landlady.

His fingers brushed against hers as if by accident.

【Ding--】

The next second, there was a beautiful sound, like coins falling into a bag.

It echoed in Su You's heart.

Refreshing Chapter 9 will definitely cost money.

I never expected that Miss Sayuri could make so much money.

Su You glanced at her wallet balance.

[0 gold coins, 0 silver coins, 24 bronze coins]

An additional 10 copper coins were added.

Clearly, Ms. Sayuri is just as valuable as Megumi Kato.

So, is Sayuri actually the female lead in some anime series?

"Su Jun! Here are your gloves!"

"it is good."

Su You took the gloves and put them on, then helped the landlady sprinkle the powder.

"Su Jun, you don't know, I didn't sleep well at all last night, I was so afraid that another snake would come out from somewhere."

"I went to several stores this morning before I finally bought this snake repellent powder. It is said to be very effective. It is a formula from Su Jun's hometown, with added realgar and other ingredients."

"Su Jun is so strong!"

……

Little Lily has a very lively personality; she chatters on and on.

The bag of snake repellent powder was quickly used up.

By the light of the streetlamp, Xiaobaihe looked at the white marks around the corner of the apartment wall, put her hands on her hips, and felt a sense of relief.

"Su Jun, you've been a huge help!"

"Don't say that. Miss Sayuri is thinking about the whole apartment. It's only right that I help."

Su You took the gloves off her hands and returned them to Xiao Baihe.

He seemed to touch Lily's hand unintentionally again.

But the system did not respond.

No money was revealed.

"That's true, but several tenants passed by the door this afternoon, and only Su Jun was willing to come and help me..."

Little Lily looked at him and said.

"Su Jun is such a good man. He'll definitely find a great girlfriend when he goes to university."

Su You nodded and said, "Thank you for your kind words."

"You've been working so hard, Su Jun, why don't you come to my place to rest for a while and have a glass of juice?"

This was the second time Xiaobaihe had invited Su You to her house for fruit juice.

Su You thought for a moment and said, "Next time, I have some things to take care of when I get back."

A hint of regret crossed Xiaobaihe's face: "Alright, then you mustn't refuse next time!"

"See you."

"goodbye!"

Su You picked up her schoolbag from the doorway and went upstairs.

Upon reaching the third floor, Su You took out her key to open the door.

The door to the next room clicked open.

Su You subconsciously turned her head to look.
