Jing Chen insisted on giving it, saying, "My grandmother's illness is worth more than 10,000 taels. Grandpa Xu, please accept it. It can be regarded as a filial piety to my grandmother. So, Quan Jingchen will be given!"

The Xu family felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, but Qibao didn't care. Thinking that he had taken the ginseng from the space with great pain, he accepted the silver and said, "Then we will follow Brother Jingchen's wishes and accept the silver note!"

Seeing Qibao accept the silver, the Xu family could only remain silent. Qibao handed the silver to Wang and said, "Grandma, keep this silver. Let's make something delicious at noon to celebrate Brother Jingchen finally finding ginseng as he wished, and to celebrate our family earning ten thousand taels of silver."

The Xu family had no choice but to listen to Qibao's advice and go back to work. Qibao and Jingchen took Bailang and the others to familiarize themselves with the Xu family's environment. They also introduced which room the family members lived in. When they arrived at the kitchen, they saw Zhang, Li and their mother picking vegetables. It was obvious that the amount was prepared for the workers.

Qibao said, "Grandma, how about this? Let's let the aunties who cook do it. We can pay them a little more. Then my aunt and the others can have more time to study. And if we need to hire someone in the future, you won't have to do all these things by yourself. It's time for you and my mother to take a break."

Wang said, "Why is Qibao suddenly hiring someone? We are used to doing these jobs. I don't feel comfortable with someone waiting on me!"

Qibao said, "Grandma, no one can predict what will happen in the future. Our barbecue restaurant is about to open, and after the New Year I plan to plant some fruit trees and make wine. We'll need more and more people. If the whole family has to do all the little things, we'll be exhausted. We'll definitely need people!"

Wang thought for a moment and said, "You're right, but we're still busy right now, so let's talk about hiring people after the New Year!"

Seeing that grandma had agreed, Qibao didn't try to persuade her anymore. Baishuang and Baixue were circling around the water tank, probably smelling the scent of the spiritual spring water. Qibao prepared food bowls for the two wolves and filled a basin of water for them to drink. Jingchen was watching from the side. It seemed that the girl had a lot of this water.

After drinking the water, Qibao led them out of the kitchen, and Jingchen followed behind. Qibao suddenly said, "Brother Jingchen, I think you have lived in my house for such a long time, half of it is for the water in our house, right?"

Seeing Qibao's frankness, Jingchen didn't hide it and said, "Yes, but I have no ill intentions. My mother gave birth to me prematurely, so my body is relatively weak. I have been practicing martial arts to strengthen my body. Since I drank the water from your house, my health has been getting better day by day, and my internal strength has also increased. But I have no bad intentions towards you and your family."

Qibao said, "I believe what you said. Otherwise, with your status as a wealthy or noble person, you would have snatched it away long ago. I can't tell you the origin of this water. I am the only one who owns this water in the entire continent. I hope Brother Jingchen will not tell anyone else. I don't want my family to get into trouble because of this."

Jing Chen said, "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret." Qibao nodded. She believed that Jing Chen was not a talkative person, and he brought up the matter today just because he didn't want to cause trouble.

After a while, Jing Chen said, "I may leave here after the barbecue restaurant opens. My grandmother's illness can't be delayed any longer." Qibao nodded without saying anything.

Three days later, Su Chenyu sent someone to deliver a letter saying that all the tables and chairs had been delivered and placed in the barbecue restaurant.

After hearing the news, Qibao went back to the house, took the prepared paint, got on Jingchen's carriage and went to the town. Also going with him were Old Man Xu, Uncle Xu Da and Uncle Xu Er. The others felt that they could not help, so they stayed at home.

The group soon arrived at the barbecue restaurant, and a plaque was hung up with the words "Iron Triangle Barbecue Restaurant" written on it. Every stroke was vigorous and powerful, flowing like water. It was obvious that the person who wrote this was a very accomplished calligrapher. Qibao secretly praised him in his heart.

The counter is on the right as people enter the door. The new floor in the hall is clean and bright, and the walls are gray on the bottom and white on the top, which looks a bit monotonous.

When Su Chenyu saw the Xu family coming, he immediately stepped forward and greeted them, "Grandpa Xu, you're here. Take a look at the tables and chairs delivered today. I think they're good. I just need to put the baking tray and the stove in place."

Qibao touched the table and chairs and said, "Well, not bad, it's pretty much what I thought. Then let's assemble all these things now."

Qibao took the lead and took up a baking tray and put it into the groove of the table. It fit right underneath and was the right size. The bottom of the table was blocked by baffles on three sides, leaving one side for easy access to the stove. To add charcoal fire, you only need to use a small shovel to add it directly. If the charcoal fire is too strong, you can also adjust the stove down a bit so that the meat will not be easily burnt.

So, everyone followed Qibao's method and started to install baking trays and stoves on each table. Su Chenyu and Jing Chen also helped. Their secret guards saw that their master had started, so they also followed to help. With strength in numbers, all the tables were installed in less than half an hour.

Qibao brought out the seasonings again and placed a can of chili peppers and cumin, as well as a pot of oil, on each table, all in bamboo containers.

After everything was done, Qibao said, "The charcoal fire must be smokeless. Is Brother Chenyu ready?"

Su Chenyu said, "Don't worry, everything is ready. They are all high-quality white charcoal, and I think my people will bring the kitchen staff and other workers this afternoon. But my cousin will pay for it!"

Qibao smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Jingchen and Brother Chenyu. You guys have contributed the most to this barbecue restaurant, but I have a lot more free time."

Su Chenyu said, "What's the big deal? Don't forget, without your seasoning, this barbecue restaurant wouldn't even be open!"

Qibao said, "I want to paint a pattern on the white wall, so that it will look more romantic and not monotonous."

Su Chenyu said, "I was saying the wall looked empty. It turns out you, Qibao, had already prepared for this. You can also paint? I'm really impressed."

Qibao said, "My master taught me well. I will start painting from the box!" Qibao picked up the paint and began to mix the colors. She believed that with her level of skill, she didn't need to apply a base and could just paint directly.

The first box is painted with plum blossoms. The painting starts from the corner of the wall. First, draw the branches and extend them to the four walls. Then start painting the plum blossoms. The flowers are clustered together, which is really bright and beautiful.

The others were watching the Qibao painting. Su Chenyu sighed, "I've never seen such a way of painting before. It's really beautiful. What kind of paint is used in this painting?"

Qibao said, "This paint was given to me by my master. He also taught me how to paint."

Su Chenyu said, "Qibao, next time your master comes, you must tell me. I also want to be his disciple. If I miss this opportunity, it will be a lifelong regret!"

Qibao laughed awkwardly and said, "Of course, of course!"

Finally I finished a painting of plum blossoms, and after some thought, I composed a poem next to it: A few plum blossoms stand in the corner, blooming alone in the cold. From afar I know it's not snow, only the subtle fragrance lingers.

Su Chenyu praised, "What a great poem!"
