# Chapter 2145: Little Shop Opens for Business
Soon, the news that there were two extra hours of free time before bedtime in the male prison district spread!
When the prisoners heard this, they went absolutely crazy with excitement, almost wanting to hug Jiangnan and kiss him twice!
When had they ever lived such a good life?
Not only that, but during this period, Nan Shen's Bully Little Shop would also open for business!
As long as you paid Ming He Crystals, not to mention Dali Slippers and Little Soybeans, even wives were for sale!
The prisoners were practically drooling, you know?
The benefits of Dali didn't need much explanation—it was basically a guarantee for survival in Ming He Death Prison!
And they could buy a wife too?
٩(º﹃º٩) "Ehehe~ I wonder if it's the kind of wife I'm imagining! Does the Bully Little Shop really offer such services?"
(￢﹏￢) "I suggest you don't get your hopes up too high. Knowing Nan Shen's style, who knows what it'll turn out to be? Is there a wife in a wife cake? Is there a couple in a couple's lung slice? It might very well be an old lady!"
"Whatever else, I've got to keep getting my Dali no matter what. It's practically my life source. We'll find out tonight—let's hurry up and fish for our crystals!"
Tempted by the Bully Little Shop, the prisoners started fishing even more vigorously, you know?
As for Jiangnan, he casually found a dark current whirlpool and continued using Ming He energy to strengthen his physique!
As time passed, the 24-hour side effect period of the Fishy Soap finally ended!
Jiangnan could finally return to his own Nan's cell!
...
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and evening arrived. The prisoners climbed up the maoji one by one onto Biyan Bridge. After a day of fishing operations, they were truly returning with a full load!
Ye Hua lined them up in order to collect Ming He Crystals!
Each prisoner handed over a measly three to five crystals just to get by!
They didn't care at all about completing the 300-crystal task. They'd be happy to go down into the river every day!
Ye Hua watched this scene with his teeth nearly ground to dust, but what could he do?
Beat the prisoners again? He'd already had enough of that last time!
As for Bing Chacha, he had been waiting early at the end of Biyan Bridge, with a mountain of iced fruit beer piled up behind him!
Cold air was swishing out in all directions!
Seeing Jiangnan walking toward him, Bing Chacha forced a dry smile:
(⌒ㅂ⌒;) "Lord Jiangnan, the—"
Before he could finish, Jiangnan stepped forward, grabbed Bing Chacha's clothes, and tore them. With a "ripping" sound, Bing Chacha's uniform was torn open, and Jiangnan ripped off a large piece of cloth!
He used it to wipe his head and face!
Then he casually draped it over his shoulder, grabbed a bottle of iced beer, and hooked it forcefully onto the broken stump of Bing Chacha's horn!
With a "bang," the bottle cap spun off and flew away!
Bing Chacha: (ꐦ⌒ㅂ⌒ꐦ)
[From Bing Chacha's Resentment Value +1009!]
[From Bing...]
You're so noble! You tear my clothes to wipe your face and use my horn to open bottle caps?
Jiangnan tilted his head back and chugged the whole bottle in one go!
(*¯ㅿ¯) "Burp~ That's the stuff!"
Wang Youzhi and the others followed suit, lining up to tear a piece of cloth from Bing Chacha to wipe their heads and using his broken horn to open bottle caps!
In no time, Bing Chacha was left in tatters, full of holes, with bottle caps bouncing off his head!
Hei Gang was about to follow suit and open a bottle, but seeing Bing Chacha's murderous glare, he swallowed his saliva.
In the end, he didn't dare and used his steel teeth to open the cap instead!
Wang Youzhi raised his beer high!
٩(˘ꇴ˘*)و "My minions! Come over and claim your beer! Tonight's beer is all on Boss Jiang!"
When the prisoners heard there was beer to drink, they immediately beat their chests and roared, howling wildly like a pack of wild monkeys!
The prisoners drank their beer with satisfied expressions, and quite a few even burst into tears on the spot!
Was this really Ming He Death Prison? Was this really the life prisoners could live?
Everything had changed with the arrival of that Southern Man!
The prisoners sat on Biyan Bridge, leaning against the railing, beer in hand, gazing at the magnificent, endless Ming He!
The silver-gray river water surged violently, as if falling from the heavens!
The direction the prisoners were gazing at might be the direction of home. Never had they longed for freedom so desperately!
At this moment, Jiangnan stood on Biyan Bridge with his hands on his hips, a beer in hand, a satisfied smile on his face!
✧*｡(๑ᵒ̴̶̷◡ᵒ̴̶̷)✧*｡
Suona stared at Jiangnan's back and murmured:
(°△°♫) "Some birds are not meant to be caged, for every feather on them shines with the light of freedom!"
Ta Luo looked at Suona in surprise—not bad! As expected of someone who handles red and white affairs, even a casual remark is so philosophical!
But when Bing Chacha heard this, his eyes turned red!
(ꐦథ益థ)σ
Veins bulged on his forehead. "Not meant to be caged," my ass! He's definitely not meant to be caged!
But he flew away who knows where! Stop shining your damn light of freedom!
He must have said that on purpose! Shameless!
Hitting a sore spot, Bing Chacha went berserk, grabbed Ye Hua, and started pounding him violently!
Ye Hua was beaten so badly he spat blood!
Ye Hua covered his head and said frantically:
୧(#)⋟ཀ⋞) "Sir! Why are you hitting me? He said it, not me! Hey, hey, hey—Puh wah!"
Jiangnan couldn't help but snicker, and the prisoners took their little beers to go shower!
Jiangnan didn't go with everyone.
After all, his new cell had its own private bathroom—why would he crowd with the others?
...
In front of the luxurious five-star cell, everything inside had been renovated, sparkling with glittering light!
The previously mentioned Ming He bathroom had also been remodeled. From now on, he could use Ming He energy to cultivate without having to go to the solitary confinement room or jump into the river!
Hei Gang stood at the door, moved to tears!
(●꒦ິლ꒦ີ) "I... I can really live here? Is this really the treatment I get to enjoy?"
Was this really a prison? Even hotels in the interstellar city weren't this luxurious, right?
Jiangnan grinned: (๑乛◡乛๑) "Of course, you're my cellmate after all. With such good fortune, how could I not include you?"
"Go tidy up the room, check if any surveillance or listening devices have been secretly installed, and clear out the living room. Push the tables together to make a counter."
"Business is going to be extremely busy later. Remember to keep order at the scene, okay?"
Hei Gang: (≖_≖●)
So Boss Nan Shen really just needs someone to do the chores, right?
Give me back my tears of emotion!
Hei Gang didn't dare waste time and immediately got to work!
Meanwhile, Jiangnan walked to his cell door, propped his chin, and pondered for a moment.
He then formed a blade with his fingers and began carving on the strong-phase alloy wall, as easily as writing on sand!
Sparks were even flying out!
Above the door, five bold, flowing characters appeared:
"Nan Shen Little Shop"
On the left and right sides were a couplet:
"We've got everything for sale! Buy a wife, will you love her or not?"
"Tattoos with codes are super cool! However bad you want to be, you can be!"
After carving, Jiangnan grinned, blew on his smoking fingers, and hurried inside to set up the little shop!
Even Wang Youzhi and the others came over to help after their showers!
...
After drinking their beer and showering, the prisoners started thinking about the little shop Jiangnan had mentioned earlier!
After all, Dali was extremely important to the prisoners!
If they went a day without drinking it, they'd feel uncomfortable all over. It was better to get a refill as soon as possible!
They had already hidden quite a few Ming He Crystals!
But the prisoners were used to being controlled. This time of day, they should have been locked in their cells. Suddenly having two extra hours of free time felt a bit strange...
Just then, Suona's impassioned roar echoed through the corridor!
٩(Ò口Ó♫)و "Good news! Good news! Nan Shen Little Shop is now grandly open! Everything is dirt cheap! 10 crystals! 10 crystals!"
"For 10 crystals, you won't lose! For 10 crystals, you won't be cheated! Truly worth every penny!"
"Everything you get is cheap! Everything you buy is a steal! Opportunities don't come every day, so strike while the iron is hot!"
His voice was so loud that not only the male prison district but even the female prison district could hear the commotion!
Instantly, the prisoners rushed toward Nan Shen Little Shop like a horde of old zombies!
Some even ran out of the bathroom wrapped in only a towel, afraid they'd miss out on Dali!
With only two hours of free time, what if they didn't make it in time?
Some hadn't even seen the little shop yet but were already stuck in the corridor, unable to squeeze through!
The line stretched all the way from the Calamity District to the Chuachua District!
Back in the office, Bing Chacha was frowning, trying every possible way to wrest happiness back from Jiangnan!
Then he heard Suona's shouting!
What the hell? A little shop? Jiangnan was actually selling goods inside Ming He Death Prison?
This was practically a rebellion against heaven!
The long line of prisoners had just arrived at the little shop's door when they were stunned by the writing!
∑(°口°๑) Holy crap?
Carving words directly into strong-phase alloy? That was so domineering!
And they really sold wives?
What kind of wives were they?
With nervous anticipation, the prisoners surged into the little shop!
The moment they entered, they almost got blinded by the glare!
The room was filled with large gold bricks—the floor was paved with gold bricks!
The walls, the counter, even the stools were built from gold bricks!
Jiangnan and Wang Youzhi sat on a pile of gold bricks behind the counter, wearing sunglasses and crossing their legs!
With tattoos, flower shorts, and flower shirts, each arm had ten gold watches, and around their necks hung 100-jin heavy gold chains!
Jiangnan was even tossing a large gold brick in his hand, looking extremely arrogant!
The entire little shop was filled with the smell of money, sparkling gold, vulgar to the extreme, so tacky it was unbearable!
But Jiangnan loved it!
Gold bricks and everything—he could just draw them with his nonsense pen. After all, gold wasn't like star source energy blocks that contained star source energy; he couldn't draw those.
Since he could turn drawings into gold, Jiangnan used as much as he wanted!
Hei Gang beside him watched the dazzling golden splendor with a twitching mouth. He didn't understand why the boss liked this kind of golden metal so much.
Although it had good malleability and was quite rare in the starry sky, it wasn't even considered spirit material!
Jiangnan slapped the gold brick!
(๑¥↼¥) "Brother~ What do you want to buy today?"
The prisoner swallowed his saliva:
ヾ(♡﹃♡ヾ) "I... I want to buy a wife!"
