Seeing Zhao Hao's strange expression, Princess Yongning frowned.
"Why, is this shop not good enough?"
Zhao Hao quickly shook his head.
"It's not that it's impossible, it's that it's too great. However, this is His Highness's property, so please sublease it to me..."
Princess Yongning said, "You don't have to think too much. This teahouse was about to go out of business. If I didn't rent it to you, I would have rented it to someone else. Now I can save myself a lot of trouble."
Zhao Hao nodded: "In that case, thank you very much, Your Highness. How much is the rent expected by Your Highness?"
Princess Yongning said, "According to the current prices in East City, and the location and area of this teahouse, the monthly rent should be between twelve and fifteen strings of cash. I will not ask you for more, since you will lose money in the end anyway. Just give me ten strings of cash per month, and pay every six months."
Zhao Hao said quickly, "Your Highness, this is inappropriate. How can I take advantage of you so much? How about this, the rent is 20 strings of cash per month."
As soon as these words were spoken, Princess Yongning and her maid Xiaotao were both shocked.
Princess Yongning opened her beautiful eyes wide and asked incredulously, "How much did you say?"
Zhao Hao held up two fingers and said, "Twenty strings of cash per month."
Princess Yongning took a breath and said, "Are you crazy?"
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "Your Highness, I think this shop is worth the price, but Your Highness must allow me to renovate it."
Princess Yongning blinked her beautiful eyes and tried to persuade him again, "Zhao Hao, I still want to persuade you not to open this restaurant. You will definitely lose money."
Zhao Hao said, "Your Highness, I understand your good intentions very well, but I am also very sure that I will never lose money."
Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Princess Yongning sighed with some disappointment.
"Well, since you have made up your mind, I will not persuade you any more. Let's sign the contract."
"Okay!"
The two quickly signed the contract, with a monthly rent of twenty strings of cash, and Zhao Hao paid for four months first.
Two days later, the teahouse was handed over. Zhao Hao immediately had the plaque taken down and began to redecorate it.
He spent eighty strings of cash on rent, and had sixty strings of cash left, which was enough for renovation.
Another six or seven days passed, just when the decoration on his side was almost completed, an explosive piece of news spread throughout the capital.
Great victory in Mubei City!
Four days ago, when Mubei City was in danger and was about to be conquered by the barbarian cavalry, the defenders of the Gan Kingdom took out a devastating super-killer weapon called the Thunder Bomb, and wiped out 40,000 barbarian troops in one fell swoop.
The barbarian army was littered with corpses, and blood gathered into a river under the city of Mubei. There were broken limbs everywhere, and it was extremely miserable.
The entire Mubei city has turned into a hell on earth.
The terrifying power of this thunder bomb was so shocking that many people in the barbarian army were killed directly, and many were trampled to death by frightened war horses.
Overnight, the remaining hundreds of thousands of troops retreated frantically and lifted the siege of Mubei City.
Nowadays, it is said that the Gan Kingdom asked the Thunder God in the sky to punish the barbarians with thunder.
When this news came out, the entire country was shocked and fell into a carnival.
Zhao Hao was also very happy when he heard the news.
He was not surprised by this result.
In this way, his contribution was completely confirmed.
In the afternoon, Zhao Wenxiang also returned home and ordered the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous banquet. Zhao Hao was also called back home.
He has been keeping an eye on the restaurant since the renovation began, not daring to relax for a moment, for fear that he would not achieve the effect he wanted.
Zhao Hao came in exhausted, and seeing his father sitting in the middle, he hurried over to greet him.
"My beloved old Lord Zhao, after the great victory at Mubei City, didn't His Majesty hold a banquet for all the ministers? Why are you back?"
"You bastard, I haven't even asked you yet, but you asked me first!"
Zhao Wenxiang glared, but there was still a smile on his face, and it was obvious that he was still in the joy of winning the battle.
"Hey, hey, I'm just concerned about you, dad. What do you want to ask me?" Zhao Hao walked to the dining table and sat down.
Zhao Wenxiang said, "I heard from your mother that you are trying to open a restaurant recently?"
Zhao Hao nodded: "Yes, it is already under renovation and will be open for business in two days."
Zhao Wenxiang said, "Is it opened by winning the hundred strings of cash from the Lu family kid by fighting in a literary contest?"
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "Do you know everything about this?"
Zhao Wenxiang rolled his eyes: "It has spread all over the capital, how could I not know about it?"
Zhao Hao said, "It's the one hundred strings of cash, plus the money I earned from selling tofu."
Zhao Wenxiang said, "Your father has no objection to doing business, but have you ever asked around, among all the restaurants in East City now, how many are making money?"
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "Dad, are you worried that I'll lose all my money? Don't worry, no matter whose restaurant loses money, mine won't!"
Zhao Wenxiang frowned: "You are a little too confident, aren't you? Others are not making money, so how can you make money?"
Zhao Hao said with an unfathomable look on his face: "Just wait and see, let's let the facts speak for themselves."
Seeing that Zhao Hao couldn't say it, Zhao Wenxiang didn't ask any further questions.
"You earned the money yourself anyway, so your mother and I don't care. But if you lose money, don't expect us to clean up your mess!"
Zhao Hao laughed and said, "Dad, I'm already an adult. Even if you want to clean up my mess, I'm embarrassed!"
Zhao Wenxiang cursed angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't want to eat, get out of here!"
Zhao Hao begged for mercy: "Eat, why not? Oh, where's my mother?"
Zhao Wenxiang said, "She is talking in Miss Su's yard. Send someone to call her back."
