On the second floor of Zuixian Building, Shangguan Yu stood leaning on the railing, looking at the crowded scene below, smiling from ear to ear.
"Waiter, here are two meat roasters!" Someone raised his hand and shouted loudly.
"Hey, come on!" The waiter responded and raised his hand, and immediately someone pushed a special cart over. On the cart was a straw basket wrapped in layers of white cotton. It was Zuixian.
The latest delicacy on the floor is roasted meat.
"Master, you two, eat slowly!" The waiter happily used a tong to hold the fire, put it on a delicate white porcelain plate, and served it to the guests respectfully.
"Waiter, I want two of these, and a plate of authentic spicy chicken!" someone from the next table shouted.
The waiter happily responded, directing people to put the food on the fire while going to the kitchen to order.
When the shopkeeper raised his eyes and saw Shangguan Yu, he immediately ran all the way to the second floor, nodded and bowed respectfully: "Master, look, the business of Zuixianlou is more than twice as good as before. Today the Cyclamen on the street closed down.
Yes, let me see, if this continues, our Zuixian Tower will become the only one in this Wuming Town!"
Shangguan Yu nodded and said after a while: "Miss Chu is indeed a talent. Fortunately, she has no intention of running a restaurant. If..."
"Yes, boss, I think so too. Miss Chu has a lot of ideas. She can make a lot of money just from a small meat roast, let alone her signature dishes!" The shopkeeper lowered his voice, "Is it really true?
Is there any way to get Miss Chu to work in Zuixian Tower?"
Shangguan Yu recalled Chu Yiqing's heroic words when he met her for the first time, and shook his head resolutely: "She will not be willing to accept this little Zuixian Tower!"
The shopkeeper sighed, "I think she is confused. Farming is hard and tiring, and this Chuhan land has been like this for thousands of years. Can she change it alone?"
Shangguan Yu seemed to disagree with the shopkeeper's words, and frowned slightly: "What if she can change? If these vegetables don't have to be brought from all the way from the capital..."
The shopkeeper opened his mouth wide, that was simply something he didn't dare to think about!
"Chu Yiqing hasn't come here these days?" Shangguan Yu quickly changed the topic.
"No, I took a basket of potatoes away last time. I secretly sent someone to inquire about it. I heard that Miss Chu is leading people to grow potatoes in the countryside!" The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Growing potatoes? Just think about it.
Rare!"
Shangguan Yu raised his eyebrows, which was indeed rare. He has been operating in this Chuhan land for so many years and has tried to be self-reliant. He bought the most fertile land in the town and invited expert farmers from the capital, but every time
They are all failures. This land of Chuhan is cursed and cannot be rich. The ancestors of this land of Chuhan have offended the gods and are doomed to live a miserable life forever!

"Sir, it's an eye-opener for Lei Lei to follow you this time. Is he not planning to steal the business of the five major families, but is planning to farm?" On the top of the mountain, Lei Lei was lying on the grass with grass in his mouth, looking at the sky.
Talking sarcastically.
Li Huang knew Lei Lei's confusion. Now that the prince was winning over the ministers in the court and consolidating his own power, the five major families controlled the national economy. He was not in a hurry and had no idea what to do, but he secretly watched a group of women farming here. It was indeed a bit funny.
"Let's go!" Li Huang waved his sleeves, his belt catching the wind, and walked away vigorously.
Lei Lei immediately sat up, looked at the group of women who were still busy at the bottom of the mountain, and couldn't help but muttered: "There is indeed nothing to see, I really have a convulsion, it seems that I should give him some medicine!"
"After saying that, he turned around and quickly caught up with Li Huang.

After working with more than a dozen women all morning, two acres of potatoes were planted easily. Chu Yiqing was still uneasy, so he crawled in. After carefully checking each section, he felt relieved and said hello.
Everyone went home to eat, but they sat on the ground by themselves, eating the cakes brought by Jin Yu, and looking at the rest of the land and worrying.
Four-fifths of the ten acres of land are still uncultivated. Potatoes are too expensive to grow. The basket last time was already the limit of Zuixianlou. Although the two acres of potatoes are planted, they are far away from the village.
The well is far away and it is inconvenient to water the ground. She observed it a few days ago. The grass at the foot of the mountain is green and there is dew in the morning. There should be a water source underground. Drilling a well is not a problem, but the funds...
A good woman cannot make a meal without rice. Although Chu Yiqing has never cared much about money, the lack of seeds and water sources now require money to solve the problem.
"Right there!" Jin Yu's voice suddenly came from behind. Chu Yiqing turned around and saw Jin Yu walking towards this side with a man. The man was dressed in gorgeous clothes and kept looking at the ground while walking, for fear of getting muddy.
If your shoes are dirty, you will look like you are not from the village.
Chu Yiqing stood up and patted the dirt on his body. When the man raised his head, he saw that it was Shangguan Yu, the shopkeeper of Zuixian Tower.
"Sister, Boss Shangguan said he has something important to ask you, so I brought him here!" Jin Yu said, gesturing for the two of them to chat while going to pack up the household items for work.
"Do you have a problem with me?" Chu Yiqing was also surprised. Could it be that there was something wrong with the dishes she gave to the chef? Shangguan Yu actually found his way here!
"It's okay, I'm just curious. How charming is this land? It's even more attractive to you than my restaurant!" Shangguan Yu squinted his eyes and took a look at Chu Yiqing's coarse cloth dress, but he was surprised in his heart.
She was obviously a peasant woman who had been doing farm work all morning, and her clothes were inevitably stained with mud. However, in front of such a gorgeous man like him, her expression was still calm, her eyes were calm, and she stood like this with brilliance and magnanimity.
Not inferior to those well-groomed rich ladies.
Shangguan Yu was surprised but also felt defeated. If such a demeanor is not innate to women, it can only mean one thing. The woman has no good impression of him, so even if her clothes are sloppy, she doesn't show any signs of it in front of him.
Feeling of shame.
Seeing Shangguan Yu looking at her dress, Chu Yiqing smiled faintly: "Boss Shangguan is laughing at me, farm work is just like this, dirty and tiring, but if you work hard, plant the seeds, take good care of it, and manage it, there will be success
hope!"
"Oh?" Shangguan Yu slowly recovered his thoughts and chuckled: "Miss Chu doesn't look like a person who is willing to be ordinary! I remember the first time we met, the girl boasted about Haikou and said she had the confidence to be here.
Potatoes, peppers, eggplants, onions, ginger, and garlic are grown in the land of Chuhan, and the quality is guaranteed to be ten times better than those in the capital, and the price is only half of what I brought from the capital. I wonder if Miss Chu still remembers it?"
Chu Yiqing smiled faintly: "Of course I remember what I said myself, but Boss Shangguan doesn't believe it, right?"
"I don't believe that vegetables and fruits can be grown in this Chuhan land that has been barren for thousands of years, but I believe in Miss Chu and am willing to take the risk!" Shangguan Yu slowed down his voice, making his words full of temptation.
.
"Boss Shangguan means..." Chu Yiqing asked with a calm smile as before.
"You are short of seeds and water. In the final analysis, you are short of funds. If I am willing to invest, I wonder what Miss Chu would think?" Shangguan Yu squinted his eyes, revealing the gleam of a shrewd businessman.
