The shopkeeper glanced at him. “Do you know who provided the canned food in our restaurant?”
“Didn’t you say it was the Gu family’s workshop?” The waiter was stunned and his eyes widened. “Could it be that Miss Gu…”
“Right now, in the entire prefectural city, only our restaurant has canned food for sale. As you can see, there are many people who eat this. Also, white sugar is a rare thing. Even the few large shops in the prefectural city don’t have much stock. However, not only does our restaurant have it, but the purchase price is also the cheapest. These goods are all imported from the Gu family. Do you understand?”
The waiter nodded hurriedly. She was the God of Fortune of their restaurant.
This waiter was recruited from the prefectural city. He had never been to Fengkai County and did not know much about certain things.
However, he knew very well that this restaurant had just opened in the Xuanhe Prefecture not long ago. They were new and their foundation was not stable yet. If they wanted to make a name for themselves in this huge prefectural city, other than the two excellent chefs in their restaurant, they counted on this thing which was rare in the entire prefectural city.
Their restaurant alone had a lot of dishes made of white sugar. That was something that other restaurants didn’t have.
The shopkeeper glanced at him. “Alright, quickly go to the kitchen and tell Master Zhao to serve the dishes of the Tranquil Water Pavilion first.”
“Alright.” The waiter hurriedly ran to the kitchen.
The shopkeeper personally brought in the dishes from Tranquil Water Pavilion. He still had something to say to Gu Yundong.
“A few days ago, Young Master sent someone over to say that Miss is coming to this prefectural city to open a shop. When you come to the restaurant, we must treat her well. I thought that you were coming soon. Young Master instructed me to show Miss the shops in advance. There are indeed a few that are quite suitable. When are you free, I’ll bring you to take a look?”
It was rare for Gu Yundong to feel that Liu Wei was more reliable. She thought for a moment and said, “Tomorrow. Take Brother Shao and Uncle Zheng to take a look. I have to go to Tianhai Academy.”
Shao Qingyuan wanted to accompany them to the Tianhai Academy, but he was sternly rejected by Gu Dajiang. Why would he bring so many people to the academy? He didn’t need to embolden himself or fight.
It was enough that he had his wife and daughter by his side. He did not need anyone else.
Therefore, Shao Qingyuan could only find a suitable shop with Zheng Gang and settle down to open it as soon as possible.
The shopkeeper immediately nodded. “Sure, no problem.”
Gu Yundong recalled that the restaurant seemed to be very busy and said, “How about this? Arrange for a waiter to lead the way for us. You can go ahead and do your work. Don’t worry about us.”
The shopkeeper agreed. It was the end of the month, and he indeed had a lot of things to do.
As it happened, Laixi was quite smart. He could just let him go.
Thus, early the next morning, Laixi changed into clean clothes and reported to Gu Yundong’s inn in high spirits.
After Shao Qingyuan and Zheng Gang went out, Gu Yundong sent Aunt Ke home and asked Tong Shuitao to help clean the house.
Gu Yundong stood and looked at the house that she had lived in for nearly a month. She felt a little emotional.
When she first came, she was in tatters. Now, she had the ability to buy a house in the prefectural city.
She came out of the courtyard and brought a few packets of snacks to the neighbors’ houses with Aunt Ke. She wanted to ask if there were any strangers who had come to look for Aunt Ke recently.
It had been a while since she asked Qin Wenzheng to help her get the portrait of the person she was looking for on the notice wall of the prefectural city.
