Of course, for these innkeepers to have such audacity is truly a case of bullying others by relying on their master's power.

However, they retaliated without actively seeking trouble.

Having occupied the moral high ground, and with the Zhao family's background, no one really dared to make a big fuss about it.

After all, they're in the wrong. They can't win in terms of physical strength, and they can't compete in terms of background either.

As luck would have it, Zhao Daya was at one of the shops that day.

Since starting her business, Zhao Daya has always worn a cap whenever she goes out, so outsiders can't see what she looks like through the cap.

Therefore, it further increased Zhao Daya's mystique, while also helping her avoid various controversies arising from her young age.

Of course, these days a master is a master, and few people would casually criticize a master, but it's not uncommon for some people to feel contempt for them.

No sooner had Zhao Daya entered the inn than a young master who had been keeping watch nearby received the message and rode his horse to the inn.

As soon as they entered, they clamored for the best food and wine.

"Young master, every dish here tastes very good."

"Young master, you might want to take a look at the menu before ordering. That way, you can eat what you like and avoid unnecessary waste."

The waiter said very respectfully.

The young man in the green silk robe snapped open his folding fan.

"Who do you think you are? Just bring out the best food you asked me to. What, are you afraid I can't afford it?"

The waiter quickly shook his head.

"No, since you want the best food, our shop has the highest-grade set meal, which costs ten taels of silver."

"Sir, is it a banknote or cash?"

The young man in the green silk robe took out a silver ingot from his chest and slammed it onto the table.

"Ten taels of silver? For a small shop like yours to offer a meal for ten taels of silver? I'd like to see for myself today."

The waiter, being very obsequious, picked up the silver and went to the kitchen.

Fifteen minutes later, the standard six dishes and one soup were served one after another.

The most expensive dish is venison.

Venison is considered extremely rare by outsiders, but the deer at Zhao Daya Inn are raised by the innkeeper himself.

The surrounding area is desolate, especially in mountainous areas, so it's best to buy it legally.

Zhao Qingyan then transported various poultry, livestock, wild deer, wild sheep, and pheasants over.

Zhao Qingyan has a complete guide to raising these wild species.

As long as you follow the instructions, you won't make a mistake.

Therefore, in addition to the compensation money from the vandalism, the inn's business also relies on wealthy travelers who want to eat well and spend a lot of money.

This young man in green wanted to pursue Zhao Daya. If he could become Miss Zhao's wealthy husband, he would surely rise to prominence in the future.

Another reason is to find out what ingredients are used to make the food at the inn, as it tastes exceptionally delicious.

This young man in green was named Qiu Yin, and he had an extremely sensitive tongue.

He can taste the ingredients in anything that goes into his mouth.

Because of his tongue, his family's restaurant has been able to replicate many of the signature dishes of other restaurants.

Therefore, Qiu's Restaurant also aroused public outrage.

The major restaurants even joined forces to try and take down Qiu's Restaurant.

The Qiu family, of course, could not sit idly by and wait for their doom; they always wanted to find another way to climb up to a powerful patron.

However, it's not so easy to curry favor with local officials anymore.

The more gifts they receive, the more they receive in return.

Even if the Qiu family is wealthy, how can one family fight against a powerful force?

It was also because an elder in the clan, who had returned from a business trip, said that he had passed by an inn on the official road and that the food there was extremely delicious.

Moreover, it has a very powerful backer, who is said to have connections to the highest levels, and its owner is a young woman.

In desperation, the Qiu family resorted to any means necessary, sending Qiu Yin to use a honey trap.
