Da Ni'er finally saved up three thousand taels to open a pancake shop. Before that, when Wang Da Niang and her family of three came to the capital, they only rented a small shop to set up a stall.
Thanks to the tireless efforts of our Grassland King and the open and honest subsidies from his girlfriends, Wang Tianci finally bought a house in a good location.
"From today onwards, I am the owner of Wang's Sesame Cake, and I will open Wang's Sesame Cake shops all over the Great Yan!"
Huo Xiaolong and the girl listened to their friend's ambitious plans in front of the pancake shop, somewhat speechless but respectful.
Well, you're already the king of the grasslands, and you still want to make pancakes?
Is our betting odds not big enough?
Everyone in the capital knew that the Grassland King and the Zhenbei King had a good relationship, and those who wanted to curry favor with the powerful had to come and see for themselves.
Therefore, there are many people selling Wang's sesame seed cakes today.
"How much is a sesame seed cake?" The little girl looked at the back of the dark-skinned girl who had come in to help in the shop, then turned to Huo Xiaolong and asked.
"A sesame seed cake costs twenty coins."
"She'll probably set up shop in the capital. If she sells it for decades, she'll eventually break even."
Huo Xiaolong sighed deeply. What could he do?
"How about we hire some people to deliver the food, like in Pingyang County?"
"Okay, I'll talk to her in a few days."
Huo Xiaolong paid for most of the money for the shop, but he didn't give it to her openly; it was all earned by Da Ni'er through her work.
Working: Serving as Huo Xiaolong's bodyguard.
But the guards didn't want to see her.
Whose bodyguard broke someone's window?
“I’ve thought it all out. Today is the opening of my family’s pancake shop, and my birth mother will be arriving in Beijing tomorrow. They’ll stay at the shop. I heard my two younger brothers are coming too, so I’ll have them serve the dishes.”
As Da Ni'er did her calculations, she chattered away, her plans were incredibly shrewd, and she didn't let anyone escape her grasp, even her own mother was assigned to serve dishes.
“That’s your own brother. On the grasslands, he’s at least a tribal heir.”
Huo Xiaolong wasn't showing off, but she didn't understand why he had to work instead of enjoying his good fortune.
“What is an heir? I’m the King of the Grasslands!” Dani put down her pen. She heard someone calling her again.
"Waiter, add five more squid pancakes to this table, extra spicy, and three vegetarian ones to go."
"Welcome, sir. Please wait a moment."
Wang's Pancake Shop had a large crowd, and even more people came to join the fun. Fan Lihua brought her girlfriends, along with members of the royal family and other dignitaries.
"Your Highness~"
Fan Lihua called out softly in a breathy voice.
Huo Xiaolong nodded to her. This little girl has gone to be a waiter; she's working as an accountant here.
Aunt Wang and her husband were extremely busy in the kitchen.
"You've come too, Your Highness," Fan Lihua said, sidling up to Huo Xiaolong.
“We didn’t have enough people, so your arrival is just in time. Pear Blossom, put the tab on, and I’ll go to the brothel to fetch two jars of wine.”
The girl shoved the pen directly into Pear Blossom's hand; the young Imperial Censor Fan still wanted to catch up with the person from his dream.
"I heard this shop is owned by the King of the Grasslands. I just saw the King of Zhenbei come over to help out."
The speaker was a customer eating a sesame seed cake. Judging from his official robes, he must be a person from the Jingzhao Yin (Prefect of the Capital), who had come to eat something during his lunch break.
“Look who’s keeping the books,” his colleague said.
"Fan... Imperial Censor Fan?"
"What's Fan Tiezui's granddaughter doing here?"
"Doesn't the Censorate also take a lunch break?"
"Is Fan Tiezui here too?"
These people have small families and small businesses, so they avoid Fan Tiezui. If they were caught doing something wrong, they wouldn't have enough salary to punish them.
For example, right now, grabbing a sesame seed cake with both hands and munching on it counts.
It's so delicious! How can it be so delicious? No wonder it's so expensive at Fengyuelou.
"Yes, I have arrived."
Fan Tiezui came in after Fan Lihua. He searched for a long time but couldn't find a seat. Just as he was about to wait at the door, he heard someone talking about themselves.
Isn't that a coincidence?
The table originally seated four people, but now four more censors from the Censorate have arrived, making it eight people in total, and they all have to squeeze in.
"Imperial Censor Fan".
The people from the Jingzhao Yin's office tried to get up and bow, but Fan Tiezui pressed them back down.
Despite his advanced age, the old man is incredibly healthy; his grip on a person's shoulder can cause pain.
"Which one is better? Tell me, we're all colleagues, no need to stand on ceremony."
"This squid one, and this braised beef one, are both delicious. Would Imperial Censor Fan like to try them?"
Old Master Fan shook his head, took off his official hat and placed it on his body, then raised his hand and called out.
"Waiter."
"They're here!"
Da Nier came over carrying a plate, with a towel draped over her shoulder and head.
Fan Tiezui frowned and looked at his son.
Is this the king of the grasslands?
Is she the one who caused all sorts of trouble in the palace with Huo Xiaolong?
What are we doing here now?
To be a waiter?
"What would you like to eat, sir?"
Fan Tiezui was somewhat incredulous and asked tentatively.
"King of the Grasslands?"
"What are you doing? Tell me what you want to eat, I'm busy, can't you see we don't have enough people?"
Young Imperial Censor Fan snapped out of his daze and nudged his father twice with his elbow, signaling him to stop talking.
This is truly the king of the grasslands; his arrogant tone is genuine.
"Give me five squid pancakes, and five braised pork pancakes too, and ten of the rest."
Fan Tiezui ordered food properly for the first time outside, and even stood up to see Da Nier off when she turned around.
"Is this the King of the Grasslands?"
"The king of the grasslands will be my servant?"
The people in the Jingzhao Yin's office had just realized that they, being at the bottom of the bureaucracy, had no chance of seeing Long'er and Dani'er.
Especially since these two are always acting crazy and wild, like wild girls.
