Chapter 229 Reply
When Su Chengnan's letter arrived, Lu Chaofeng was busy dealing with the spies from the White Bear Country.
"Don't waste your energy! I won't tell you even if you kill me!"
"Give me a quick death if you can!"
The other party was covered in wounds, but his mouth was still powerful.
Lu Chaofeng glanced at Wu Ming, and Wu Ming immediately picked out a piece of red-hot charcoal from the brazier, ready to torture the man to extract a confession.
"My Lord!"
"Your Highness has a letter from Ningguta!"
Ah Shun came in quickly from outside the door, holding the letter in his hand.
When Wu Ming heard the voice, he stopped and subconsciously looked at Lu Chaofeng.
"Give it here." He spoke briefly, but his voice was obviously not as cold as before.
"Yes!" Ashun gave him the letter with a smile.
Lu Chaofeng opened the envelope and read it word by word slowly, feeling increasingly depressed.
The Qin family again?
Under the guise of doing business, they have people in every city. It would be fine if they were all legitimate businesses, but all the gangsters have become thugs and spies. Are they trying to rebel?
Lu Chaofeng's expression became increasingly ugly, "Wu Ming!"
"I'm here!"
"Take people to seal up all the Jiangnan Qin family's properties in Mincheng!"
"Yes, I will go now!" Wu Ming clasped his fists, then put down the fire tongs and asked, "Sir, what about this spy?"
"Give it to someone else and ask the same question."
"Okay," Wu Ming nodded, then looked at the others, signaling them to come over quickly and take the tongs so as not to delay things. He wiped his hands and left immediately.
Lu Chaofeng finished reading one page and turned to the second page.
He read ten lines at a glance, and finally his eyes fell on the end of the letter. A smile finally appeared on his cold face, just like the warm sun in winter, dispelling the haze.
She...is worried about me? Hahahaha, it turns out that you have me in your heart. Lu Chaofeng thought.
Ah Shun saw him laughing and couldn't help asking, "Prince? But what's the matter?"
What good news? ”
Lu Chaofeng glanced at him, but rarely refrained from cursing. "Go get some paper and pen! I'll write a reply now. Hurry up."
"Yes, I'll get it right away!" Ah Shun turned around and prepared to walk out the door.
When the others saw that Lu Chaofeng had finished his instructions, they picked up the tongs and started to work, mercilessly burning the spy with the hot charcoal.
"ah--"
"Will you tell me or not?!"
Lu Chaofeng was a little annoyed by the man's screams. He frowned and said, "Ah Shun! Forget it. I'll go to the study with you."
Ah Shun stopped and said, "Yes, my Lord."
When I went out, the cold wind blew in my face and the temperature dropped sharply.
Lu Chaofeng walked in front, smiling and saying, "The lotus cakes in Mincheng are pretty good. Ask someone to buy a few boxes. Also, pack two portions each of the pearl duck and braised goose from Babaolou."
Ah Shun smiled secretly, knowingly asking, "My Lord, we just had dinner, how can you eat so many dishes?"
Lu Chaofeng stopped and glanced back at him: "Who said I want to eat it by myself? Send it to Ningguta together with the reply letter later! Don't delay on the way."
Ah Shun grinned: "Send it to Ningguta? That's great, or I'll see if there are any other specials and buy them and send them over as well?"
Lu Chaofeng really thought about it seriously: "What other characteristics does this Mincheng have?"
But as soon as he finished speaking, he realized that Ah Shun was teasing him. He coughed lightly and glared at him, "You kid! Are you itching for trouble?"
Ah Shun ran away laughing, still muttering, "I dare not. I will go to Babaolou now to help the prince prepare a gift for Miss Su! Miss Su will definitely like it!"
Lu Chaofeng clenched his palms and his cheeks felt inexplicably hot.

Ningguta, Su's residence.
Su Chengnan was standing in the cafeteria, checking the results of the decoration.
Liuzi followed her and said with a smile, "Miss, please check if there is anything inappropriate. I will take the brothers to adjust it in a while. The tables, chairs, benches and other things are all ready-made. The main thing is that the stove has been modified like this. It is more spacious than imagined."
Su Chengnan looked around and was very satisfied with the transformation into this state in just three days.
The three rooms on the left side of the yard were all connected by demolishing the walls, forming a long space. The kitchen is equipped with a stove, sink, and storage rack. The production area for washing, preparing, cooking, and serving vegetables has a very reasonable traffic flow. Each person has a work surface, and the system can accommodate about eight people working at the same time.
The tables, chairs and benches are all long tables and long benches. Everyone is treated equally and eats from a big pot. Even the bowls and chopsticks are prepared and stored in different cabinets by group. Everyone has their own and they use and wash them by themselves.
"Not bad, but are these seats enough?" Su Chengnan said, looking at Liuzi and Fu Bo.
"Enough! I counted, and if we squeeze together, there can be 150 people sitting here at the same time. But we shouldn't have any chance to eat at the same time, right, Miss?" Liuzi touched his head.
"It's hard to say. On some special days like the New Year and other holidays, the whole family naturally has to be together." Su Chengnan answered without thinking.
Uncle Fu was unhappy and asked anxiously: "Miss, are you and the masters going to dine here too? This..."
Su Chengnan said seriously, "Of course we have to come here. From now on, everyone in the Su family will eat here. Three meals a day will be served at fixed time periods. If anyone misses it, they can ask their team leader to help reserve it. If they don't report it in advance, the canteen will never leave any food to avoid waste."
When Uncle Fu was a butler, he rarely asked about specific matters in the kitchen. But although he understood what Su Chengnan said just now, he still couldn't imagine what kind of scene this would be.
Su Chengnan did not give him a chance to resist and decided directly, "Let's officially open the canteen tonight. The chef team will be appointed by my second sister."
Speaking of Cao Cao, he appeared.
There were noisy sounds coming from outside the house.
Su Chengnan turned around and saw Su Linhua directing people to move a lot of vegetables, fruits and meat from the warehouse. It was obvious that they were going to do something big.
Su Chengnan smiled and called her, "Second sister."
Su Linhua came in jumping up and down upon hearing the voice, "Eldest sister, I'm ready to fight."
Su Chengnan held her hand and asked her to calm down: "Don't worry, let me ask you about the people you need to work in the cafeteria. Have you thought about it?"
Su Linhua nodded, "Of course I have thought about it. I will be the supervisor and instructor in the future, hahahaha... Nianqiu is a top-grade chef. He comes here from time to time to gain practical experience. Sister Lin will be in charge of the specific affairs and cooking! She is the head chef. When I am not around, Sister Lin will be in charge. Everyone else will have their own duties."
Su Chengnan had no objection, "Okay, but I have a suggestion."
