Ye Xiruo rested her chin on her hand. This was a very serious problem. How to solve it? She looked up at Si Hao.

Si Hao stared intently at his toes, expressionless, as if he had discovered a new continent, not sparing Ye Xiruo a single glance.

"Second Senior Brother, what should we do?"

"Internal digestion".

"What's the meaning?"

"Your restaurant, my pill shop, and the Pill King Auction House—you can send people in. As for the rest, our Pill King Palace is so big, are we worried about not finding work for them?"

Will they agree?

"We can introduce a reward policy: those who perform well will be rewarded with more spirit stones, and those who don't perform well will have their spirit stones deducted."

"Great idea! How come I didn't think of that?"

"You've been too busy these past few days. You'll definitely think of it when you're less busy."

"Okay, I'll immediately ask Elder Danfeng to compile a list of the places where manpower is needed, and then post it all on the mission board."

The group of protesting alchemists stood miserably under the sun, their minds reeling from the heat, and began to question their existence. Had they gone too far? The young master was so busy every day, and now he had to deal with their affairs—wasn't this a disguised disturbance to his cultivation? The consequences of disturbing the young master's cultivation weren't immediately apparent, but once he emerged from seclusion, he would certainly not let them off the hook.

"Give me the stuff within a day. If you don't want to enjoy yourself, go mine. Humph." Ye Xiruo flicked her sleeves and left.

Danfeng wiped the sweat from his forehead. The young master was becoming more and more terrifying; he had come up with a countermeasure so quickly, a countermeasure that would leave no one speechless. Danfeng hurriedly summoned the stewards and began to tally up the vacancies needed.

Ye Xiruo took a moment to visit the alchemists standing in front of the main hall. They were all just bored out of their minds and had nothing to do. Once they got busy, they wouldn't have this problem anymore.

Seeing that she had nothing else to do, Ye Xiruo went straight into her spatial dimension and pulled the previous spirit wine out of the ground. Then she began brewing new spirit wine. There were currently no spirit trees or spirit fruits in the space, otherwise she could brew fruit wine. Thinking of the various fruit wines described in the system's recipes, Ye Xiruo couldn't help but swallow hard. The wine she was brewing now was made with spirit herbs, so naturally, the taste was quite good.

By the way, the Snow Bamboo Wine she brewed on the snow mountain last time seems to be drinkable now. After pulling it out of the ground, Ye Xiruo happily carried a jar of wine to find Xiu Qiyu and Zishu to drink with.

Xiu Qiyu and Zishu were not in the Time Cultivation Room. Ye Xiruo had a sudden inspiration and placed Xuezhu in the Time Cultivation Room. Then, in the shadows, she began refining pills.

After refining a batch of aphrodisiac pills and anti-aging pills, Ye Xiruo stopped and began refining other grade-five pills. The spiritual energy here was even more abundant than in the space, and the quality of the pills she refined was much better.

Xiu Qiyu and Zishu finished their cultivation and rushed back. Xiu Qiyu smiled indulgently: "Little Yezi is here."

“Junior Sister runs away every few days. If Master knew, he would definitely break her legs.”

"No, didn't I come back to refine pills?"

"Are you sure she came back to refine pills and cultivate, and not that she went out to exchange pills for spirit stones?"

"I heard that the simulation training room is more expensive than the time training room." Xiu Qiyu raised an eyebrow.

"Just put it on the master's tab, why go through all this trouble?"

"Little Leaf likes spirit stones, and she likes even more the ability to earn spirit stones herself and then count them."

"How come I remember my junior sister liked to eat it more?"

"After the restaurant opens, Xiao Yezi will come back to focus on her cultivation."

After Ye Xiruo sensed that Xiu Qiyu had returned, she stopped refining pills, picked up the wine jar, and went outside.

Today, Brother Xiuqi and Brother Dashi seemed to be getting along surprisingly well, and there was no conflict between them, which was quite rare.

"You're back, isn't that great?"

The senior brother's lips twitched, and he nodded stiffly: "Not bad." Going to challenge a group of people by himself, and getting beaten half to death every time, this Si Hao system is inhuman.

"Very good, you can go over there after you're done."

Ye Xiruo nodded. She did need to cultivate martial arts as well. The system had said that her mental and soul power were extremely strong. If she cultivated them properly, she would be an essential tool for killing, robbing, and traveling.

"I'm treating you to drinks today. This jar of spirit wine is made with the finest ingredients: snow bamboo leaves that are one in a hundred, and pure spirit water. You two are in for a treat."

Zishu quickly took out the versatile jade table from the ring, and Xiu Qiyu naturally took it out as well. After Ye Xiruo handed the spirit wine to Zishu, she took out plate after plate of snacks from the ring, all of which were Zhang Quan's latest creations. She particularly liked the braised peanuts and the poached chicken.

After taking a small sip, Zishu's round eyes widened. This was the best wine he had tasted in all these years. His junior sister was indeed a talent. It was absolutely the right decision for Master to take her in and bring her back then.

"Brother Xiu Qi, how are you feeling?"

"It carries the fragrance of snow bamboo, which is refreshing and mellow, leaving a lasting impression."

"Unfortunately, we only got two jars in total; the other one belongs to my master."

Ye Xiruo stopped after drinking two cups of wine. Once the snow bamboo in the space grows into a snow bamboo forest, there will be as much snow bamboo wine as there is to be had, right? So, let's give it to Senior Brother!

Ye Xiruo started eating the dishes to go with the drinks: "Senior Brother, what do you think of these dishes?"

"Very unique."

"This will be our restaurant's signature dish from now on."

"Thank you for taking care of things at the restaurant, Xiao Yezi."

"I just talked a lot, it didn't take much effort. I'll go back after I finish drinking."

Ye Xiruo once again came in a hurry and left in a hurry, leaving Zishu with a pile of snacks to go with her drinks.

Be careful in everything.

Not long after Ye Xiruo returned, Danfeng sent someone to deliver a detailed personnel arrangement booklet. It was a huge pile, but fortunately, Danfeng had already had it categorized. There were positions for taking care of the grasslands, the spirit beast garden, the rare fruit garden, as well as the kitchen, the mission building, the merit pavilion, and the library. Temporary workers were needed for all of these positions, and now all preparations were complete.

Ye Xiruo summoned Si Hao, who wasn't too busy, and the two went to the main hall together. After a day, the group of alchemists weren't as frantic, but they were still unwilling to give up easily and hoped Ye Xiruo would give them an explanation.

Ye Xiruo wouldn't disappoint them, and went straight to the point, asking, "What are your opinions? Please feel free to speak up."
