Chapter 21 Buffet Restaurant

After Lu Lingyun dealt with Cui Da's matter, he looked at the others with both kindness and severity, "Everyone should take Cui Da as a warning, but don't worry, as long as you do things clearly and openly, I will definitely not treat you unfairly!"

"Yes, Madam!"

All the housekeepers said.

Lu Lingyun sat back in her seat, with only the last account book left in front of her.

Lu Lingyun frowned after flipping through two pages. This time, she didn't even need to ask. The manager in charge of the account book stepped out and said carefully, "Madam, this is the revenue book of our East Street Restaurant."

"Why is the loss so big this month?"

"The prince wants us to renovate the restaurant." The steward looked at Lu Lingyun's face and said, "He wants to turn the restaurant into something, a buffet."

"buffet?"

Aunt Qiu, who had been listening to the whole process, said, "Madam, I know!"

"That day when the little fox came to Jingjin Mansion, she pestered the prince to let her prepare a buffet for her, saying that it would definitely make money! She was the one who came up with this!"

“What is a buffet?”

"It basically means that you can eat whatever you want in the restaurant. As long as you pay the entrance price, there is no distinction between meat and vegetables." Qiu Ling said with a pout, "I really don't know what she is thinking. If there is no distinction between meat and vegetables, then everyone will only eat meat, which will lead to death!"

Lu Lingyun raised her eyebrows after hearing this. She flipped through a few pages to see the previous revenue of this restaurant. This restaurant was still a very profitable industry in the Marquis' Mansion, bringing in five or six hundred taels of silver every month, and the income had always been very stable.

After the reinstallation, it has not yet started business.

"Young Madam, the restaurant has been installed and can be opened." The steward asked in a low voice.

Given the current situation in the Marquis' Mansion, he actually didn't know who to report this matter to directly.

Although it was the prince who approached him directly and asked him to rebuild the place, it was the Marquis's business after all, and the mistress would definitely want to know about it.

Otherwise he would be the one who suffers.

Qiu Ling looked at Lu Lingjun with twinkling eyes, wanting to see Lu Lingjun just put the matter aside and call Xing Dairong over to clean up the mess, but she saw Lu Lingjun just close the account book.

"I see."

She looked at the steward approvingly, "What's your name?"

"Minister Kang Ping."

"Okay, Kangping, from now on, the accounts of this buffet restaurant will be given to me, but you should ask the prince about the opening and operation of the restaurant."

"yes!"

Lu Lingjun finished dealing with today's affairs. The stewards and maids under her all retreated, and she also took the time to listen to Aunt Qiu's crying.

As the mistress of the house, there is no time for leisure.

Lu Lingyun had to arrange all the big and small matters of the family, both inside and outside the house.

This is due to the small size of the family. If there were weddings or funerals of relatives or friends, or if there were visits during holidays, Lu Lingyun would be even busier.

"I have basically heard what you said. What do you want me to do?" Lu Lingjun asked Aunt Qiu.

Qiu Ling's eyes turned, "Madam, compared to you, my affairs are nothing but trivial matters. I'd rather not bother you."

"You are a sensible person."

Qiu Ling looked at Lu Lingyun and said, "Madam, you've been bored in the house every day. Why don't we go and see the buffet restaurant when it opens?"

Lu Lingyun reached out and nodded her head, "You really have a lot of ideas."

"Madam, I really stand on your side. That little vixen will definitely ruin our family business. How can we not go and take a look?"

Lu Lingyun smiled faintly, "Okay, let's go take a look when it opens."

"Um!"

After hearing this, Qiu Ling left Lu Lingyun's courtyard happily.

When she walked back to her own Qiuxiang Courtyard, she ran into Xing Dairong who was strolling with his maid.

Xing Dairong was radiant and in a very good mood today, not only because she and Cheng Yunshuo had recently reconciled, but also because he told her today that the buffet restaurant he had promised to open for her could now be opened.

When Xing Dairong heard this, he suddenly felt his whole body filled with strength.

As a time traveler, besides gaining a passionate love from the past, the most important thing is to amaze the ancients with all kinds of modern novelties!

She had long thought of opening a buffet restaurant.

Once the buffet restaurant opened, it would definitely stun the entire capital city. She could already imagine that her buffet restaurant would be packed with people every day. Every customer who went in to eat would be shocked by the dazzling array of food, and she would make a fortune.

Now that the business was about to open, Xing Dairong felt refreshed. She saw Qiu Ling coming from a distance and immediately blocked her way in a haughty manner.

When Qiu Ling turned left, she blocked the left side; when Qiu Ling turned right, she blocked the right side.

"What are you going to do?" Qiu Ling paused.

"Aren't you quite resourceful?" Xing Dairong looked at her with a sneer, "Why doesn't the prince go to your place anymore?"

"Who has better skills than you, you vixen from a brothel?"

"Are you incapable of cursing anything other than brothels?"

"Well, what else do you know besides the skills you learned in the brothel?"

Wow! Isn't this the kind of dance that Xing Dairong wants to show off?

Xing Dairong immediately looked at Qiu Ling with an arrogant and contemptuous look, "Do you think I'm the same as you, a feudal woman who only knows how to engage in female competition and can't live without a man? I know a lot of things! Any one of them can scare you to death!"

"What will happen?" Qiu Ling raised her eyebrows.

Xing Dairong's eyes dimmed at this moment, and he pretended to be deep and said, "Food, clothing, housing and transportation, I will change the whole world in every aspect!"

"Hahahaha, hahahaha." Qiu Ling laughed so hard that she fell over.

"What's so funny?" Xing Dairong looked at her like a monkey. "Just wait and see! When I become a person who goes down in history and you admire me so much that you can't even reach your toes, you will know how funny you are now!"

“Hahahaha, hahaha!”

Qiu Ling held her stomach and laughed uncontrollably.

Xing Dairong glanced at her as if she were a monkey, and walked forward with his men, "Let's go and see my buffet restaurant!"

Outside the palace, East Street.

When Xing Dairong brought his people to Jufulou, Kang Ping was already there receiving Cheng Yunshuo.

"Yun Shuo!"

"Dai Rong, you're here." Cheng Yunshuo smiled when he saw her coming, "Take a look and see if this is what you thought it would be?"

Xing Dairong walked in happily, and the first thing she saw was the snack area with various fruits and snacks as she requested.

"Why are there so few fruits?" Xing Dairong only saw some watermelons, peaches, pears, red dates, dried fruits and some handmade pastries. "Are there no bananas, pineapples and durian?"

"Huh?" Cheng Yunshuo and Kang Ping were both puzzled.

Xing Dairong said to himself at this time, "Oh, this era doesn't have it yet. Forget it, just put more snacks in there! It won't look good if there are too few snacks and it fills up here."

Kang Ping frowned when he heard this.

My great aunt, does she know how expensive snacks are?
