Chapter 88

December 15, 2018, early morning.

Lin Fei came to the third-floor balcony and stretched lazily, facing the rising sun.

He made a simple breakfast for himself in the kitchen: two fried eggs, a cup of hot milk, and a large meat bun.

After finishing his breakfast, Lin Fei went downstairs and pulled up the roller shutter. The golden sunlight immediately flooded in.

"Good morning, Mr. Lin!" Lin Wan, who was eating a bun and walking towards the milk tea shop, greeted Lin Fei, who was standing at the entrance of the flower shop.

"Good morning! Boss lady," Lin Fei smiled.

"Mr. Lin, didn't you go home yesterday?" Lin Wan asked.

"It's troublesome to go back and forth every day, so I now live in the shop," Lin Fei pointed to the third floor.

"Your shop is so nice! Our shop is too small to live in," Lin Wan smiled, then pulled up the roller shutter of her own shop and began preparing for the day's business.

Lin Fei returned to his shop and sat behind the cash register, waiting for customers.

Unlike yesterday, not long after, at around 9 a.m., the lady who had bought something from Lin Fei the previous day brought four people to his shop.

"This is the shop. All the potted plants here are spirit plants; you can sense them yourself," Ms. Niu said.

"This money tree is a spirit plant."

"This pot of Chinese evergreen is also a spirit plant."

"Goodness, these cacti and cactus balls have also turned into spirit plants."

"Their function is to increase the concentration of spiritual energy within a certain range. Although the increase is limited and not very useful for high-level cultivators above the first stage, they are still very useful for cultivators below the mid-first stage."

The cultivators Ms. Niu brought were exclaiming in surprise.

"Hello, what do you need?" Lin Fei asked as he came to their side.

"Look, boss, I brought customers for you today," Ms. Niu smiled at Lin Fei.

"Thank you, I appreciate your help," Lin Fei smiled.

"Boss, where do you get these spirit plants?" a middle-aged man asked.

"That's a trade secret," Lin Fei said calmly.

"Ha ha, sorry, I got carried away and asked an inappropriate question," the middle-aged man said.

"It's okay," Lin Fei said.

Soon, including Ms. Niu, each of them bought two potted plants and a small cactus pot.

Lin Fei looked at the 24,000 yuan on his phone with satisfaction. Although this amount was far less than what he had earned from mining or robbing the nests of spirit beasts, it had a different flavor.

"Unfortunately, no pretty girls came to the shop. It's not quite what I imagined!" Lin Fei sighed to himself.

As Lin Fei sighed, Ms. Niu either kept the spirit plants for herself or gave them to her good friends, who then told their friends about Lin Fei's flower shop.

By noon, Lin Fei had just finished lunch on the third floor and came downstairs to see a queue of over ten people waiting outside the glass door.

"Are these people all here to buy something?" Lin Fei thought, then opened the glass door.

"Boss, you're finally here."

"Boss, you took a long time for lunch!"

"Boss, I want ten cactus pots, please pack them for me."

"I want five cactus balls."

"I want three spider plants."

"I want ten Chinese evergreens, no need to pack them; I came by car, just put them in my car."

"I also came by car, I want five butterfly orchids, just put them in my car."

"Okay, one by one. Everyone, pay first, and then I'll pack or load them for you," Lin Fei said to the crowd.

It took more than half an hour, and Lin Fei, using his telekinesis, handled all their requests to everyone's surprise.

Watching this group leave with their purchases, Lin Fei thought happily, "Lively and bustling, this is life. But why are they all uncles and aunts? Where are the pretty girls?"

Lin Fei returned to the shop a bit regretfully and took out his phone to call Tao Tao Wholesale.

"Hello, Mr. Tao? Do you remember me?"

"The goods I ordered from your shop last time were very satisfactory, and the customers liked them. Now there's not much left in the shop, so please send another batch."

"Can you deliver by 5 p.m. today? Okay, I'll send the specific quantities to your WeChat, and I'll transfer the money to you now."

After arranging the supply, Lin Fei returned to the cash register and started browsing his social media.

"Xiao Wan, the flower shop next door is doing great business!" Liu Zihan said.

"I saw several people load a lot of potted plants into their cars," Lu Lu said.

"I went over to say hello yesterday and saw that he sells very common indoor potted plants, but I didn't expect them to be so popular," Lin Wan said.

"I just drove by and saw that Mr. Lin is a cultivator. I saw him use his ability to help customers load their purchases," Qin Qingqing said.

"I didn't expect him to be a cultivator! Isn't he like Lin Wan? What ability does he use?" Liu Zihan was surprised.

"It's probably telekinesis! I saw him control things to fly in the air," Qin Qingqing said.

"What kind of cultivator am I? I'm just at the early first stage, the lowest among cultivators. I can only use my ability a few times before my spiritual energy is exhausted," Lin Wan said.

"At least you've broken through to the early first stage. Even if you're weak, you're still a cultivator. We have spiritual energy, but we can't break through to the early first stage and aren't even cultivators," Liu Zihan said.

"I think Mr. Lin's strength is quite high. He has been using his ability to help customers load their purchases, and he seems to handle it with ease," Qin Qingqing analyzed.

"Look, another group of people is going to Mr. Lin's shop," Lu Lu called out.

"Old Chen, this is the flower shop. Old Chu sent the location in the WeChat group," a man in his fifties said to the people around him, looking at the message on his phone.

"Let's go in quickly! I don't know if the shop still has any stock," Old Chen urged, and then a group of over twenty people walked into the shop.

"My goodness, so many people. I'll go check it out, and you wait for my news," Qin Qingqing said and ran to the neighboring flower shop.

Lin Fei was watching a funny video when he suddenly saw over twenty middle-aged men walk into the shop.

"Hello, what do you need?" Lin Fei quickly closed the video and asked them.

"We'll take a look at the goods first," Old Chen said. The twenty people began selecting potted plants in the flower shop, holding them in their hands and closing their eyes to sense them carefully.

After a short while, Old Chen opened his eyes and called out, "Old Chu didn't lie to us. These are indeed spirit plants. I'll take them all."

"What do you mean 'take them all'? If you take them all, what about us?"

"Right! Old Chen, that's not fair."
