"Alright, I'll have to trouble you, Second Sister-in-law, to have Butler Li go and check out the house for me."
“No problem, Butler Li used to manage the shop, he’s familiar with it.”
Mu Yi'an intended to provide the formula and ideas, but she didn't plan to manage it herself.
It was actually a coincidence; when she was in college, she worked part-time at a mala tang (spicy hot pot) restaurant.
She understood the process of making mala tang (a type of spicy hot pot), and she knew how to prepare the soup base. There was no unique secret recipe; back then, the internet was readily available, and many things could be found online.
Jiang Shuwen is now relieved. Once he has bought the house, he can resign from the business. It should be easy, after all, the head manager wants to get his nephew in.
After having lunch at Mu Yi'an's place, Jiang Shuwen and the others went back, and Butler Li also went to check out the house.
After Butler Li returned, he told Mu Yi'an about the house.

Mu Yi'an immediately understood. There were many people at the dock, not to mention the cargo ships coming and going, there were also quite a few passenger ships. The number of people working at the dock and the number of passengers on the passenger ships were also quite large.
"Madam, the house was sold for the last two hundred taels. The Third Master said he'll go to the trading company to say goodbye first, and then come back to discuss the details with you after he's done there."
"Alright, there's no rush. We only have a few businesses at home, so Manager Li, please take care of them."
"It's not hard work. My wife trusts me and is giving me this opportunity."
Steward Li truly believed that if a servant had no value, then they had nothing.
Mu Yi'an thought that Butler Li's idea was good. Whether in ancient or modern times, a worker who has no value is not far from being unemployed.
As for opening a shop with Jiang Shuwen, Mu Yi'an was thinking that if only their family was well-off among the three Jiang brothers, there would be no shortage of trouble.
Most importantly, Jiang Shuwen and Li Qiuniang are decent people. If it were Jiang Dasao, Mu Yi'an would have politely declined long ago.
