After tasting it, they immediately felt that the compressed biscuits and bread they usually ate were really not fit for human consumption!
"This meat is so tender! So chewy!"
Sun Erniang's knife skills were excellent, pounding the meat until it was incredibly tender, which naturally improved the texture.
"These meat buns smell so good!"
An ancestral recipe for the sauce, of course, it smells good!
"And the price is cheap too!"
Lin Chen wasn't relying on this to make money; as long as he broke even, it was naturally cheap.
"With the lockdowns all the time, eating those breads and biscuits really made my mouth so bland it could have grown feathers!"
"Little Lin, are you selling again tomorrow?"
"Yeah, if you are, I'll come eat again!"
"I want to pre-order ten!"
"I'll take twenty!"
The neighbors, having tasted the deliciousness, immediately surrounded the stall enthusiastically, chattering non-stop.
Lin Chen didn't forget to promote his shop's name to strengthen their impression: "My shop is called Happy Forest, everyone. Tomorrow morning at eight, I'll be selling at the same spot!"
When Card Masters use Card Spirits for service and selling products, it's a dimensional reduction attack on ordinary people!
Soon, one to two hundred buns were sold out.
Lin Chen could feel that the neighbors' positive feedback, surprise, and satisfaction were transforming into subtle spiritual energy, flowing into the Happy Forest shop.
It really worked!
Although the effect was not significant for now, Lin Chen had indeed experimentally found a path!
Lin Chen was satisfied as he packed up his stall, preparing to go home.
After finishing everything, he finally noticed several unread messages on his wristband.
Opening it, he discovered a buyer's inquiry from his card shop.
The buyer had sent several messages in a row, seeming quite anxious.
They were all asking the same question:
"How much are you planning to sell the copyright for your [Sober Mind Bracelet - Emergency Needle]?"
The author, along with Lin Chen, comes to ask for votes and continued reading!

Chapter 49: The Young Master of the Jia Clan Conglomerate, a Bigger Deal!
"How much are you planning to sell the copyright for your [Sober Mind Bracelet - Emergency Needle]?"
This question finally reached Lin Chen!
He just remembered that he had listed the copyright for a White-grade Equipment Card in his card shop.
Lin Chen wasn't very familiar with the market prices and planned to check first.
However, the other party had asked repeatedly and seemed quite sincere; it wouldn't be good to leave them hanging.
So, he decided to reply politely first: "I'll consider it first~"
As soon as Lin Chen sent his message, the other party, as if waiting, replied instantly:
"No problem! Or if it's convenient, we can discuss it in person. We guarantee a generous offer!"
This buyer was too enthusiastic! They were already suggesting a face-to-face meeting.
Although Lin Chen was polite, he wasn't overly enthusiastic. He'd think about meeting later.
Seeing that Lin Chen hadn't replied for a while, the other party added:
"Have any other buyers contacted you?"
This person was feeling the pressure, huh~
He didn't expect the copyright for his bracelet to be so valued.
Lin Chen could have pretended that other people were negotiating to drive up the price.
But Lin Chen thought better of it. It was better to quote a price to the other party soon and use the money to become stronger. That was the right path.
To haggle for a slightly higher price and waste time back and forth, he might as well go into an instance dungeon and earn more!
So Lin Chen honestly replied: "No, you're the first."
The other party sent a smiley face emoji, seemingly relieved and unburdened.
Then another message came:
"I see you're a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush. I'm interested in a deep collaboration with you regarding this equipment card, to develop it further."
Oh? Deep collaboration?
This was interesting. Lin Chen hadn't expected a small White-grade Equipment Card to attract such a proposal.
It seemed his [Sober Mind Bracelet - Emergency Needle] had immense market potential.
It was worth meeting the other party for a detailed discussion.
Before Lin Chen could even agree, The other party sent over his identification information—
Jia Yanshang, owner of H City's Shiying Card Industry Company, and the third heir to the Jia Clan Conglomerate.
He had a chubby, cheerful face, but his eyes held a shrewd and decisive glint.
The information on the official card trading platform, complete with the Card Association's anti-counterfeiting verification, confirmed his identity.
Revealing his identity was a gesture of sincerity.
The Jia Clan Conglomerate!
Lin Chen had heard of them; they were a major local power in H City, owning many chain supermarkets and shops.
In these unstable times, only powerful conglomerates could afford to run chain businesses.
Judging by his identity, he was quite young, likely the young master of the Jia Clan.
For someone so distinguished and wealthy to be interested in the product of an obscure Card Master like himself...
Interesting~
Lin Chen immediately agreed to meet Jia Yanshang at a high-end teahouse near the city center.
No matter how chaotic the world became, there would always be classes and distinctions.
This high-end teahouse was a symbol of status, serving only the few in H City who could afford it.
Upon arriving at the teahouse, an apprentice Card Master was already waiting.
Even the person leading him was a Card Master? It seemed the Jia family indeed had a wealth of talent.
This apprentice Card Master guided Lin Chen to a private room—
Jia Yanshang was waiting inside.
As soon as Lin Chen entered, the chubby young man jumped up, crossed the tea table, and shook Lin Chen's hand warmly.
After they sat down, Jia Yanshang sized Lin Chen up for a moment before speaking:
"Mr. Lin, I can sense that you're not one for pleasantries, so I'll get straight to the point."
Lin Chen nodded in agreement.
Jia Yanshang spoke in a rapid yet clear voice:
"As my company's name, Shiying Card Industry, suggests, my core objective is to discover outstanding Card Masters and unearth high-quality cards.
And your card, Mr. Lin, perfectly fits my criteria for quality."
Lin Chen probed, "Is that so? But this is just a White-grade Equipment Card with a simple creation principle and basic materials. May I ask what makes you consider it high-quality?"
Jia Yanshang narrowed his eyes and smiled, as if discussing a favorite topic:
"Mr. Lin, are you testing me?
You want to see if I can recognize the brilliance of your card, right!"
Lin Chen did indeed have this intention, wanting to gauge why this young master of the Jia family had come and what his business intentions were.
Jia Yanshang began to speak eloquently: "Mr. Lin, don't think of me as just a businessman.
I am also a Card Master by background, but my mental power is weak, and my hands are clumsy.
I can't create cards myself."
He then shifted his tone:
"However! I at least understand the logic and thinking behind card making, coupled with my upbringing..."
The young master of the Jia family flashed a confident smile:
"I have some insight into what kind of cards can make money!"
This chubby young man was quite articulate. Even when boasting about himself, he did so with a touch of humility that made it easy to listen to.
"Your card, although just an ordinary White-grade Equipment Card;
In terms of cost-effectiveness, it offers low cost and high effect.
Because the cost is low, it can be mass-produced quickly, meaning it can be manufactured in large quantities."
