Hua Rong looked at Ye Xiruo with a sincere expression. If you ignored the fervor in his eyes, he really looked like he was willing to go through fire and water for Ye Xiruo.
"Young Master Hua is so busy, I really feel bad about wasting your precious time on such a small matter."
"We're friends, isn't it only right that we'd go to great lengths for each other?"
Qingzhi silently put down her wine glass and began to eat.
"If it's about drinking, I can help too," Zishu said earnestly.
Ye Xiruo was stunned: "Senior Brother, do you understand market trends? Or do you understand the tastes of cultivators? Or do you have a keen business sense?"
"I only know how to appreciate wine," Zishu said somewhat embarrassedly.
Hua Rong's face stiffened: "I've been drinking spirit wine since I was five years old, and every single one of them is of the highest quality."
“I can accurately determine the spiritual energy contained in each cup of spiritual wine, and its benefits to people.” Zishu raised an eyebrow.
Hua Rong was speechless. His understanding of the spirit wine was more about its taste; as for the spiritual energy, that was just a byproduct.
Seeing that the two were about to roll up their sleeves and start fighting, Ye Xiruo quickly stood up.
"Let's leave this work plan to our two senior brothers! We need to select eighteen types of wine with the best taste and the richest spiritual energy to pair with the medicinal cuisine. We'll have to consult Master Zhang about this later." Ugh, opening a shop is so troublesome!
This was only the beginning, and Ye Xiruo couldn't help but want to roar to the sky. This was so troublesome!
"That's no problem at all. When shall we begin?"
Zishu and Huarong both looked at Ye Xiruo with shining eyes.
"My senior brother and I are going to Medicine King Valley the day after tomorrow and will be back in about half a month. I will write a plan tonight. Finding a suitable shop and promotion can be handed over to others after I leave. Once I come back and finalize the details, we can open for business."
"Does Ye Zi have a suitable candidate in mind?"
"The master's people will be here tomorrow, but we'll have to wait until tomorrow to confirm the details."
"That would be perfect."
"Then let's celebrate Yezi's restaurant's great success in advance."
After drinking another half cup, Ye Xiruo felt unwell and buried her head in the soup. After finishing the soup, she felt a little more awake.
"If you have a large stock of Ye Zi's spirit wine, you could consider selling me a portion first."
"No." Ye Xiruo ruthlessly rejected Hua Rong's suggestion.
"Why?"
"If the Spirit Wine is first introduced to your Hua family, I will lose the first-mover advantage, and counterfeits will appear on the market." I might even go bankrupt.
"Ye Zi is indeed very thoughtful, so I won't force you. I wonder if I could buy a few jars to enjoy?" You see, at the apprenticeship ceremony, the old man bought a hundred jars of spirit wine in one go, but only reluctantly gave him three. He even teased him from time to time, saying that this was a rare, new-style spirit wine brewed by Jing Li himself.
Without comparison, there is no harm, but now the harm has come! Hua Rong can't wait to go back and slap her old man in the face.
If those are considered treasures, then what about the spirit wine in his hand?
“We’re friends, so these five jars are my treat for you.” This time, Ye Xiruo brought out more than twice the amount of wine they had just drunk.
Zishu looked at Ye Xiruo pitifully.
Ye Xiruo pretended not to see: "Senior Brother, don't forget you still need to help me identify the spirit wine."
Zishu's eyes lit up instantly, and he started gnawing on his favorite chicken leg.
"What are your plans, Second Brother?"
"I want to go back to Sunset Valley for a visit."
"Alright, I wonder if anyone in our village has been injured?" Although Aunt Wang and Liu Tiesheng had left Liujia Village long ago, Ye Xiruo was still very worried.
"The villagers left long ago. Some houses on the east side collapsed, but it wasn't too serious."
Well, I must go back and visit Aunt Wang when I have time. If it weren't for Aunt Wang, I probably wouldn't have survived with her frail body.
"You're leaving so soon?" Ye Xiruo's mood was somewhat downcast.
"Don't worry! We will definitely meet again."
"Definitely, I'll treat you guys to drugs then."
Hua Rong laughed so hard she almost fell off the stool, and even Qing Zhiyi's gentle and refined face seemed to crack.
Zishu solemnly pulled out two bottles of pills and handed them to Huarong and Qingzhiyi: "No need to wait for next time, I can treat you to pills this time." And they were high-quality ones.
"This is too valuable." This is an eighth-grade elixir, which is priceless and unavailable.
"Consider it a loan I gave to my junior sister first," Zishu said with a slight smile.
"That's right, our senior brother owns a pharmacy, so he doesn't need these medicines."
Zishu: =口=When did he open a pharmacy? He's clearly the second son.
"Thank you, Brother Zi."
After the four of them had eaten and drunk their fill, Ye Xiruo was helped back to her room by Mingxi. Zishu took Qingzhiyi and Huarong to his Ziyue Palace.
Upon returning, Ye Xiruo discovered that Zhang Quan had not yet left.
"It's so late, why haven't you left yet?"
"Is the young master satisfied with today's meal?"
"Satisfied, satisfied, I have never eaten such delicious food before."
Zhang Quan's slightly chubby face was filled with excitement, exhilaration, and a sense of relief.
Are you alright?
"Thank you, Young Master." He hadn't cooked spiritual dishes for ten years, and the whole night felt like a dream. Fortunately, he didn't disappoint the Young Master, nor did he disappoint himself.
"You did a great job. I'm starting to look forward to seeing how delicious your medicinal cuisine will be."
"Please rest assured, Young Master, I will definitely not let you down." Zhang Quan's eyes were full of confidence.
Ye Xiruo took out a bottle of pills from her ring: "This is your reward for tonight."
“I am willing to work for the young master, so why should I ask for payment?”
"Let's keep things separate. I enjoyed the food today, and that's what you deserve. You should understand that only by further improving your strength can you advance to the Grandmaster level!"
"Thank you, Young Master. I will definitely cultivate diligently."
"I'm going into seclusion soon. These are some medicinal dishes I've selected. You can study them at your leisure. If you have any questions, you can consult your second senior brother."
Zhang Quan felt a dreamlike sensation as he watched Ye Xiruo hand him the incomparably precious medicinal diet menu. He felt like he was dreaming.
Ye Xiruo rolled her eyes: "You better not disappoint me, otherwise, it won't do you any good even if you run to the ends of the earth."
She believed Zhang Quan would make the right choice, after all, such opportunities are not common.
"Young Master, the bathwater is ready."
Ye Xiruo took a comfortable bath and fell asleep immediately, a smile even appearing on her lips. (To be continued.)
