His father, however, had a rather volatile temper.
Qiu Yan felt that Xie Yunzhi would be very popular if he were in the modern world.
"Miss Qiu is too kind," Xie Yunzhi said modestly, shaking his head. He had only studied the classics for ten years and was slightly more literate than the average person.
However, the remote Western Qin had no scientific research system.
Under the guidance of Manager Wang, Prefect Xie and his son Xie Yunzhi went to a private room on the second floor.
Qiu Yan calmed down and looked at the sky.
Around 9:00 AM.
It was almost lunchtime, but their restaurant didn't have a single customer.
Manager Wang sighed repeatedly.
In contrast, Prefect Xie, who was in the private room, had never paid any attention to the restaurant's business.
Qiu Yan went to the counter, looked at the menu, and then looked at the restaurant's accounts.
Shuangxilou has consistently been operating at a loss, and this situation is getting worse month by month.
During the two weeks that Young Master Xie was seriously ill, the losses were even more devastating.
Manager Wang was completely helpless in this situation.
He was racking his brains trying to come up with a solution.
Qiu Yan quickly considered the options in her mind, "I'll write another notice: Shuangxi Restaurant's dishes are 50% off today."
"If they offer a discount today, they won't come back tomorrow."
Shuangxilou had done this before; Manager Wang had instructed Yin Xiaoer to do it before.
"We'll have repeat customers. Didn't we change owners today? And we even changed the flavor."
Qiu Yan is leaving tomorrow, and before she goes, she wants to do everything she can to help Shuangxilou's business improve.
If this business is truly beyond saving, then she'll wait until the battle is over before resuming her main business.
However, Qiu Yan still had confidence in Shuangxilou.
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Although Manager Wang didn't think Qiu Yan understood business, he did as his boss said.
He calculated that a 50% discount on the vegetable price would just break even.
He wrote down a notice about today's vegetable prices at half price and had Yin Xiaoer post it on the door.
Qin Susu also came to help Yin Xiaoer while he was posting the notices.
"Brother Yin, where do you live, and how do you usually get here?"
“My home is in the alleyway in front, not far from here.”
Qin Susu: "Do you know why there are so many beggars in Qin County?"
Yin Xiaoer: "Isn't it because of the years of war on the border? People are all running into the city. I heard that the refugees there often exchange children to eat each other. It's a terrible sight, a truly terrible sight."
"Exchanging children to eat?" Qin Susu suppressed the churning in her stomach, thinking of the tragic scene in the Western Qin Imperial Palace. "There were so many mummified corpses in the abandoned palace, and Lord Xie didn't even say anything about sending someone to deal with them. It's too creepy."
As she spoke, she suddenly felt a chill and couldn't help but shrink back.
Upon hearing this, Yin Xiaoer thought Qin Susu was incredibly bold. Aside from homeless beggars, most normal people would detour around the Western Qin Imperial Palace.
As a result, they still do not know what the Western Qin imperial palace looks like.
"When Lord Xie first arrived, he also ordered people to clean up the body, but guess what?"
"What's wrong?" Qin Susu was clearly terrified, but she was also extremely curious.
"It's His Highness the Crown Prince! His spirit has suddenly appeared... He's dressed in white and thrusts his sword towards Lord Xie's heart..."
"Ah..." Qin Susu exclaimed in surprise, her face turning pale with fright.
"And then what happened? And then what happened after that?"
"Later, Lord Xie was so frightened that he fainted. When he woke up, he was seriously ill. Just then, he received His Majesty's decree, which was to seal off the Western Qin Palace and let their corpses rot and stink."
