“Thank you, Mistress. I will bring in the silver we earned in a while.”

“There’s no need since the grain merchants are coming over.

“We will be renovating our restaurant, too, and I’ll leave this matter to you. “Remember to record the accounts clearly. Also, the materials you purchase must be durable. I’ll give you the blueprints later, and you can renovate the restaurant according to them.”

“Understood. I will take my leave then.” Niu Fugui turned around and walked out.

After he left, Zhou Ying took out her calculator and calculated carefully. After confirming that the amount matched, she put the account book aside.

After lunch, she went to the kitchen, leading everyone to prepare mutton skewers.

When Gu Chengrui returned that evening, everyone had a good time at dinner.

After the barbeque, Zhou Ying asked Biaozi, who was handling the grill, “Brother Biaozi, we will mainly be having skewers and chilled dishes during the summer, so you can prepare accordingly for our meals.

“Also, our restaurant will open in a month, at most.”

“Really? That’s great! Don’t worry, leave it to me.”

“By the way, you have to nurture a disciple as soon as possible. Otherwise, you won’t be able to handle the workload.”

“Understood.”

“Mistress, my father alone can handle keeping the account books in the residence. When the restaurant opens, can I come to the restaurant?” Niu Deli asked.

“Sure, you can try if you want to, but you and your father must make arrangements at the residence. If anything goes wrong, I’ll look for you.” “Mistress, don’t worry. If we get too busy, I’ll definitely call him back.” Niu Fugui affirmed.

Next, Zhou Ying asked Mother Qiu to teach Haitang cooking before leaving with Gu Chengrui.

After entering her interspace at night, Zhou Ying asked, “Rui, is the water wheel on the new manor installed?”

“Yes, and it’s already running.

“We’ve also dug a 10-acre reservoir in the livestock breeding area and plan to raise more ducks and geese.

“It will not only enhance the safety of the manor, but roast duck and iron pot stewed goose are also rare delicacies. They could be used as our new restaurant’s signature dishes if done well.”

“Alright, as long as there’s no influenza, it should be fine.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already taught them how to prevent a breakout.” Gu Chengrui assured her. “Oh, don’t you want to return to our hometown? Let’s head back the day after tomorrow.”

“It just so happens that the chili and cumin are almost ready for harvest. We can transport some over instead of buying them here. If there is also an excess of livestock at our hometown’s manor, we can also transport some over…”

“That’s a possible solution. Li Si and the others can also be promoted to a more important position by bringing them to the capital.”

After the couple finished their planning, they went ahead and got busy.

Zhou Ying didn’t pack too much because she planned to take a boat back this time. It would be much faster to travel by water.

She gave Niu Fugui some important instructions and left 5,000 taels of silver just in case.

Gu Chengrui went to the academy to let Gu Chenglin know of his departure, and he was surprised when Gu Chenglin requested to return with him.

When the two of them went to bid farewell to Gu Wanning, Gu Wanning’s eyes lit up. “I’ll go with you. I’ve never been out of the capital before.

“I could also go back and visit Grandmother.”

“No.” Gu Chengrui rejected her directly.

When she saw that she was dejected, he quickly explained, “Don’t think the capital is as peaceful as it looks; the conflict has just gone underground. If you leave the capital now, you’ll just be heading into an early grave.

“We don’t want to bring along a big target too.”

After Gu Wanning heard this, she quickly remembered that someone had tried to sabotage her and the Princess Consort several times, as well as the recent invasion. She kept quiet after that.

When Gu Chengrui saw this, he gave her a few instructions and told her not to go out as much as possible before bringing Gu Chenglin and his servant home..
