Xie Jin and Guo Ziming understood their master's unspoken meaning and immediately felt ashamed.
"Master, we haven't neglected traditional Chinese medicine either!" Guo Ziming said, though his voice lacked confidence.
Old Jue snorted coldly, too lazy to even talk to them anymore.
Su Yan quickly replied, "Master, don't worry. In the future, no matter what, I will definitely prioritize traditional Chinese medicine and use Western medicine as a supplement."
With the decline of traditional Chinese medicine in later generations, it has become very difficult to find a truly skilled and experienced traditional Chinese medicine doctor.
Moreover, she is more interested in traditional Chinese medicine than Western medicine, so her master's worries were unnecessary.
Master Jue's expression softened, and he said earnestly, "I won't stop you from your hobbies, nor will I care what kind of business you like to get involved in. As long as you remain at the top of your class in your studies, that's enough."
Since Su Yan's health deteriorated, or perhaps because he got older, his demands on Su Yan decreased significantly.
Fortunately, this child is ambitious and self-motivated.
Su Yan nodded emphatically, "I understand, Master."
"Alright." Xie Jin quickly changed the subject. "Master, it's rare for you to come to Guangzhou. Is there anywhere you'd like to go? I happen to be free these days, so I can take you around."
Guo Ziming said, "The president of the medical university has invited my master to give two classes to the students at the school. The time is set for this Saturday morning from 8:00 to 10:40."
Master Jue has not accepted any invitations to teach at schools for many years.
The main reason for accepting the invitation was to take this opportunity to assess Su Yan. The president of the medical university was all smiles after receiving the call confirming the invitation.
"Junior sister, you'd better prepare for the exam." Guo Ziming grinned mischievously.
Su Yan rolled her eyes. "Senior brother, I'm crushing you in theoretical scores now, and I'll definitely crush you in strength in the future too."
"Ayan, how can you talk to your senior brother like that? It's rude." Li Juan slapped her in annoyance.
Seeing Guo Ziming's discomfitured expression, Master Jue laughed heartily, "Don't scold her. She's telling the truth. My little disciple isn't very good at academics, but he's very good at talking. Now we finally have someone to shut him up. Ziming, you should thank your master for finding you such a good junior sister."
Guo Ziming: "Hehe."
After holding back for a while, Tao Yue couldn't help but ask, "Ayan, could you take me to your dessert shop later?"
Tao Jin explained, "Tao Yue likes to eat Western-style bread and is very interested in this. She had mentioned it several times before we came."
Western-style bread is not yet widespread, and there aren't many new varieties available in China.
The Tao family hired a pastry chef, but he only made the same few dishes over and over again, and Tao Yue got tired of them.
"Sure," Su Yan said with a smile. "There are a few flavors of egg tarts that you probably haven't tried before. Save room for them later."
Tao Yue was happy.
The dishes were served in no time.
These are all signature dishes from Banrixian.
The taste immediately amazed everyone.
Even Xie Jin, who had tasted countless delicacies, was impressed.
"Junior sister, the food tastes so good, but you set the price too low. You can raise it a bit."
Guo Ziming nodded in agreement.
Tao Jin and He Jinnian, being businessmen, also thought so.
Even if the price goes up, there will still be people willing to buy.
After all, the taste is really good, which is far more than the price.
Su Yan shook her head, "I spend half a day entertaining guests of high status, as well as ordinary people."
These words struck a chord with Old Man Jue, who scoffed, "Do you think Ah Yan is as greedy for money as you guys?"
Xie Jin and the others: ... They didn't dare to refute him at all.
"Actually, there are also expensive dishes, such as customized dishes, which are priced according to the customer's requirements and how troublesome and time-consuming they are. They are generally not cheap."
Although some dishes are priced relatively low, she doesn't run a restaurant for charity. The cheaper dishes are averaged out from the more expensive ones, so the final price isn't particularly cheap.
Half-Day Leisure's private rooms are always fully booked, and it's even impossible to make a reservation.
Moreover, customers who book private rooms tend to spend a lot, so the profit margin is considerable.
Halfway through the meal, Feng Caixia called Su Yan out.
"A woman named Du Yun is waiting for you in the get-rich-quick box."
Su Yan was a little surprised. "I'll go take a look. If my master and the others ask me about it later, please explain it to me."
"Okay, go ahead."
Get rich quick.
Su Yan arrived just as the dishes were being served; the door was wide open.
Du Yun immediately waved to her, "Boss, would you do me the honor of coming in and having a seat?"
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming?" Su Yan said as she walked in, only then noticing a young woman sitting in the private room. "And who is this?"
Su Yan felt that this woman looked familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere before.
Du Yun stood up and introduced, "This is my friend Cai Minjun, from Gangcheng, 34 years old this year."
"Minjun, this is the college student designer I told you about, and also one of the founders of this restaurant."
Su Yan extended her hand to Cai Minjun and said, "Hello, Boss Cai, my name is Su Yan, and I am eighteen years old."
Cai Minjun stood up politely and said in authentic Cantonese, "Hello, I didn't expect Du Yun to be telling me, you are indeed very young."
"What?" Su Yan looked at Du Yun blankly.
Du Yun burst into laughter, clutching her stomach. "Minjun bought the remaining designs you made. She really liked the styles and asked me about you. I told her you were a college student from Guangzhou. She thought I was just trying to fool her because I was worried she was trying to steal my girlfriend."
Cai Minjun wasn't embarrassed at all. Instead, she said to Su Yan very seriously, "I just didn't expect that you could design such a high-end style at such a young age. I admire you very much. I flew to Guangzhou this time specifically to see you."
Su Yan was flattered and asked, "Looking for me?"
Cai Minjun nodded and said very directly, "I want to talk to you about a business deal."
"Huh? You want to talk business with me?" Su Yan spread her hands, looking like she was about to cry, and refused, "Boss Cai, Sister Du Yun should have told you about my situation. I really don't have the ability to help."
"Hey, Ah Yan, don't be in such a hurry to refuse," Du Yun said. "Sit down, let's talk slowly."
Su Yan was taken aback for a moment and asked, "Sister Du Yun, you're not here to talk business with me too, are you?"
Du Yun coughed lightly, "Actually, Minjun and I have the same goal. We're all on the same side, so I won't waste any more words. Minjun and I are planning to open a clothing company to expand our business, so we would like to invite you to invest in the company and serve as its chief designer."
The company is still in the preparatory stage. After it's established, Minjun will be in charge of the Hong Kong business, and I'll handle the mainland business. I know you have a lot going on, so you only need to provide the design drafts; you don't need to worry about anything else. What do you think of this? Minjun finished and sold the previous designs, and the response was unexpectedly great. Every time a design was launched, the warehouse stock sold out in two days.
