"Brother, have you forgotten Huang Tianci? His family owns such a big hotel. If we secure their supply, will we still have to worry about sales?"

Su Chengguo winked at Su Chenggong.

Su Chenggong looked at Su Chengguo and was unsure whether to say his younger brother was too confident or to praise him for being too imaginative.

"Besides, Young Master Huang's friends must be extraordinary. If you can get along well with him, your family must be well-off. Whether it works out or not, I'll test the waters. If it works out, it'll save us a lot of trouble. If it doesn't... then we'll go on a long journey to find sales channels."

Su Chengguo felt that this arrangement was the best, and that no opportunity should be missed.

Su Chenggong nodded, and looking at Su Chengguo with some apology, he said, "You know I'm not good with words, so I'll have to trouble you with this."

He's not good with words and doesn't know how to say many nice things, which means he can't help Su Chengguo much in making friends.

Su Dahai also felt indebted, as he couldn't help with this either.

"Oh, why are you saying this? I think Huang Tianci really admires you. He secretly looked at you several times during dinner and you didn't notice. I'll go find Brother Liu later and ask him about Huang Tianci's preferences. We'll just do our best."

Su Chengguo became serious. His older brother was composed. In TV dramas, people like his older brother don't need to speak; they just need to nod and make decisions.

Huang Tianci secretly glanced at Su Chenggong many times, his eyes filled with envy.

For them, Huang Tianci was born into wealth, and they envied him for not having to suffer.

But Huang Tianci might also envy them.

As for what he envied, Su Chengguo himself couldn't see anything about his family that others should envy, but he knew that the look in their eyes was one of admiration and envy.

"Cheng Guo is right. Let's take the next couple of days to clean up the boat properly."

Su Dahai smiled gently and spoke.

Su Chengguo nodded, agreeing that they definitely needed to tidy up properly.

"We also need to get a stove and a pot so we can cook them a meal at sea."

Su Chengguo added another sentence.

When it comes to cooking, neither he nor his son are very good at it.

Su Chengguo looked at Zhou Chunmei and Li Xue.

"I might have to bring my sister-in-law and Chunmei with me then. My son and I aren't good cooks. Even if we make the best food, it's like casting pearls before swine..."

When it comes to cooking, none of them are very good at it. When they go out to sea, they just cook whatever is available, as long as it's cooked through. They don't waste food, no matter how good it is or not.

But Huang Tianci was raised in a wealthy family, so he's bound to be picky.

"No problem, my sister-in-law and I will take care of the cooking."

Zhou Chunmei said with a smile.

Li Xue nodded, saying she was happy to help her family and would do her best.

Su Luo suddenly spoke up: "I'll go too. If they feel unwell or anything, I can help them out."

She studied traditional Chinese medicine, and apart from her lack of literacy, she had no problem with the basic medical principles.

Grandpa praised her as a genius, saying that she had never seen or had the chance to see any difficult or complicated diseases.

But she has no problem with simple physical conditioning.

Common problems when going out to sea include seasickness, or feeling unwell and having diarrhea due to the sea breeze, and she can handle these situations.

“Sure, our whole family will go. We’re all sincere and we guarantee that Young Master Huang and his friends will have a great time.”

Su Chengguo nodded repeatedly. With delicious food, a doctor, and the help of her good brother Yuqing in the sea, Huang Tianci was guaranteed to be laughing all the way to the back of his ears on their sea voyage.

The family discussed and divided the tasks properly.

Dai Ping'an listened quietly without saying a word, but he started applying the medicine over the next few days.

Su Luo was making incense.

"This kind of medicinal incense can relax people and also repel insects."

Dai Pingan personally taught Su Luo how to make it.

The Su family has been cleaning the large ship for the past two days, washing it thoroughly inside and out.

After a few more days of rain, September arrived in the blink of an eye.

On the fifth day of the ninth lunar month, the weather was sunny for two days.

Huang Tianci arrived at the fishing village with three friends of similar age.

Huang Tianci introduced them: "Su Chengguo, these three are my good brothers, this is Liu Bobo, this is Chen Jinhua, and this is Zhao Pengfei."

Su Chengguo greeted them one by one: "Young Master Huang, Young Master Liu, Young Master Chen, Young Master Zhao, hello. These are my family members: my parents, my grandfather, my sister-in-law, my wife, and my sister."

After exchanging greetings, Su Chengguo invited them into her home.

There was another person taking care of them, someone Su Chengguo had met before; back then, Liu, who collected fish, called him Manager Zhang.

Manager Zhang's full name is Zhang Gao. After greeting Su Chengguo, he started mentioning the young masters' things.

"Young Master Huang, let's just have something simple for breakfast. We'll have lunch at sea, whatever we catch, how about that?"

Su Chengguo smiled and talked to Huang Tianci about their trip.

Huang Tianci nodded repeatedly: "Okay, we have no problem with that."

His three friends all nodded in agreement.

For breakfast, I had a regular seafood porridge, along with fried fish and side dishes.

They use seafood caught early in the morning at the beach, which is the freshest and most delicious.

"Wow, Tianci, this seafood porridge tastes amazing! It's even more fragrant and richer than the one your hotel makes. You should try it!"

Zhao Pengfei, who was next to Huang Tianci, couldn't help but shout that the porridge was delicious after taking a bite. He was a gourmand and had grown quite fat from eating so much. He couldn't help but shout out when he ate something delicious.

"It really tastes good."

The other two also smiled after trying it.

The porridge looked quite good, but it was hard to find any elegance in this ordinary little courtyard. However, after tasting it, I was amazed by the flavor, and my mood instantly improved.

There was a faint scent of incense in the courtyard; it wasn't particularly fragrant, nor was it unpleasant.

"Isn't it delicious? This is my wife's unique recipe. She learned it from her mother. I heard it's a secret recipe from the imperial court, and it's not passed on to outsiders."

Su Chengguo sat at another table with a bowl of porridge in her hand, chatting with a smile.

Huang Tianci and his group sat at one table, while their family sat at another.

They all ate in the courtyard, without disturbing each other.

"Wow, it actually tastes even better than what my hotel chef makes."

Huang Tianci had tasted countless delicacies, and he could truly taste the difference. Even if Su Chengguo's words were just a joke, they now seemed real.

"It's such a shame that this isn't being shared... If someone opened a breakfast shop like this, I would definitely go and eat there."

Huang Tianci looked at Su Chengguo with admiration in his eyes.

His gaze fell on the Su family members. He was quite surprised when he saw Su Luo. Su Chenggong and Su Chengguo were dark-skinned, while Su Luo was quite fair-skinned. He hadn't looked closely before, but upon closer inspection, he discovered that Su Luo was not only fair-skinned but also beautiful.

But she was holding a doll, which means she's already married.

Huang Tianci said it casually, but Su Chengguo took it to heart.

He planned to talk to Zhou Chunmei's family next time he went back to her parents' home, and that he would definitely support them if they wanted to set up a small business!

"Try this fish, it's fried well, the heat is just right, delicious!"

Zhao Pengfei ate the fried fish and praised it highly. He smiled broadly and gave the Su family a thumbs up.
