Chapter-68: why don't you use your brain?
(I can't afford to offend you. I can't afford to offend you. Don't ever offend Miss Wendy Lark. It won't take her a minute to deal with you, and you may not even notice when you've suffered a loss.) They all thought in their hearts.
An officer raised his hand weakly, "Well, what if someone arrives at the border and hasn't earned enough money for a carriage? What should we do?" Wendy Lark was silent for a moment and then pulled the dazed Wilson Lark out, "It's getting late, let's go back."
The officer watched the father and daughter disappear from his sight, a little confused, "Why did she leave like that? She hasn't even answered me yet..." Deputy Captain Luke covered his face and sighed.
He thought he was stupid enough, but his subordinates were even more stupid. "If you don't make enough money, just take the carriage away. It's so simple, why do you still need to ask? Why don't you use your brain and embarrass yourself in front of the Miss Wendy."
Everyone is disliked, okay? The officer was not angry, but smiled innocently, "Does that mean we can make money for sure?"
"Yes." Deputy Captain Luke didn't want to pay attention to him instead he turned towards Lord Jeff and said.
"Boss, do you want to find a maid to take care of Miss Wendy's daily life? It's a waste of talent to let her worry about the trivialities of life. It's better to spend her time thinking about how to make more money. I think her abilities are more than that."
Mr. Jeff agreed with this, "I'll ask her first." He instructed the officer who was usually in charge of logistics, "Miss Wendy likes to eat fresh fruits and vegetables. Buy some if you see them."
"Okay." Mr. Jeff looked at the cook and said, "You cook for the next few days. Let Miss Wendy rest more. She has been working too hard recently." People with abilities should be praised.
"Yes." The cook was very proud. His master was so amazing! Well, although the master is self-proclaimed. The Lark family members stared blankly at the banknotes on the bed with their eyes wide open. "You made so much money? Didn't you say soap is not expensive?"
Wendy Lark was in a good mood because she made money. The money was enough for them to reach the border smoothly. "Large quantity, cheap and sell more." Mary suddenly paused, her eyes filled with confusion.
"Wendy Lark, your cooking skills are so good that you can say you suddenly got the hang of it, but when did you learn how to make soap? How come we didn't know about it? You have changed... so much..."
Is this really her daughter? The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense. Wendy Lark sighed softly, "It seems that I can't hide it anymore." There was no way. Her recent performance was too eye-catching and too abnormal.
She could hide it from others, but not from her family who she lived with day and night. She stood up and walked to the door, opened it and took a look, then closed the door gently after making sure that no one was there.
Her mysterious look made everyone nervous and anxious. Wendy Lark came back on tiptoe, her expression extremely serious.
"What I am about to say next is a huge secret that cannot be told to anyone else. Only our family of five should know about it, even if my brothers get married in the future."
Master Lark looked extremely nervous and raised his right hand. "Okay, I swear I will never reveal what you said tonight." Others also raised their hands, "I also swear that I will never say a word about what you said in my life."
Wendy Lark lowered her voice and said, "On the day of the house search, I fell out and fainted. Do you remember?" In fact, the original body died on that day. How could Mary forget the panic she felt at that time?
"I remember. What happened?" Wendy Lark stared at them with an inexplicable expression, "When I was unconscious, I travelled to some advanced world and lived there for many years. I have learnt many new things but unfortunately my life is not that long over there.
There is no suppression on woman and they can do anything there. So I started a business and learnt all kinds of skills. After I passed away in that place, I returned back to the time when I lost consciousness.
This has changed my views of the world and made me understand the inner thoughts of the people. So I started to change and let out family become strong. We should not die on the exile but to be united and survive well."
"I woke up and found that there were a lot more things in my mind, including various recipes, books on how to behave, and various formulas. Anyway, there are so many things that I can't explain them clearly at the moment.
These are all the things I learnt in that strange place and this is the wealth I brought back with me after living life for many years in that strange world." Everyone looked stunned. It sounded unbelievable, but this was the only explanation that made sense.
Wilson Lark suddenly became excited, "It must be that our ancestors couldn't bear to see their descendants become extinct, so they gave the Lark family a glimmer of hope. They should have sent you to that place to learn and come back to help the family."
Well her story was quite good mixed with truth and lies have made these people believe them completely. To them as long as Wendy is still their daughter that is enough and they are content with it.
Isn't it? If it weren't for Wendy Lark, the second branch might have been defeated on the way. They had nothing at the beginning, no supplies and no money.
