"Zhang Letian? Why are you here?"

"Cough." Gu Chenshuo coughed lightly at the side, and Gu Yin then noticed that her brother was there too.

"Brother, you're back too. Have you finished school?"

The two nodded, and Zhang Letian answered her previous question.

"The first batch of revenue and profit of The Monkey King has been calculated. Here are the banknotes and account books. Please check if there are any problems."

As he said this, he pushed an account book and banknotes on the table in front of her.

"So many!" Gu Yin counted the banknotes and exclaimed, a total of one thousand taels.

"That's right. Don't you see who I am?" Zhang Letian raised his chin with a proud look on his face.

At first, we didn't sell that many copies, but later we found that the story was extremely popular, so we asked our family to rush the production to other branches. The Monkey King has long been the most popular movie in Ning County, and the magical experiences of the Monkey King are being discussed everywhere, in teahouses and restaurants in the streets and alleys.

It was beyond Gu Yin's expectation that a storybook could sell so well.

But this is because Gu Yin didn't understand enough. In the ancient times when there was a lack of entertainment, it was rare to have something new. Especially for those women who lived in the backyard of the courtyard all day long, they were all well-off, so spending some money to buy a few storybooks for entertainment was really nothing.

"Miss Gu, don't you want to take a look at the account book?" Zhang Letian reminded Gu Yin when he saw that she had no intention of looking at the account book.

"There's no need. You're not going to frame me." Gu Yin appeared calm on the surface, but she was actually complaining in her heart. She hadn't even learned all the characters yet, so she shouldn't embarrass herself.

The characters of the Daji Dynasty were between simplified and traditional characters. Simple characters could be understood by guessing, but complex ones were beyond comprehension. If she didn't want to be illiterate, she wouldn't have to practice writing characters every night.

Thinking of the hard work of studying these days, Gu Yin silently shed a few tears in her heart.

The two of them praised each other a lot and had visions of the future, saying that he was the richest man in Daji and had so much money that he could not spend it all in his lifetime. Seeing that the two of them were talking more and more outrageous, Gu Chenshuo on the side couldn't stand it anymore and found an excuse to send Zhang Letian away.

"Brother, you don't believe that I can become the richest man in Daji." Gu Yin teased her brother with a smile.

The young man smiled gently and touched her hair:

"Believe it, my sister is the best."

He also saw his sister's performance, she was indeed excellent, but being the richest man in Daji was not easy, it was not that easy to become one. Besides, with their family background, it was not known whether it would be a blessing or a curse to become the richest man in Daji.

But he should pamper his sister and support her in whatever she wants to do.

The next afternoon, Gu Yin came to the farm again. The fields used for sowing were basically arranged into rows, and it looked neat and tidy at a glance.

Gu Yin asked the two if they had prepared any fertilizer.

"I've fermented some grass and poultry manure before, and when the time comes, I'll mix it with the soil and spread it on top of the soil, and then sprinkle a thin layer of soil on top."

Zhao Jiang said honestly.

"If these are not enough, we can use cow dung."

Zhao He added.

Gu Yin nodded in relief. Without chemical fertilizers, these were all they could use, but it was enough.

Seeing how they were doing these things with ease, Gu Yin stopped interfering.

The next day, the rice seeds sprouted and could be planted. In order to prevent too many people from knowing the secret of the rice seeds, the few people did not ask for help from others and planted all the rice seeds at dusk.

At this time, several people breathed a sigh of relief. Manager Zhao was so tired that he sat on the edge of the field and pounded his waist, but the smile on his face never faded.

After taking care of the rice seeds, Gu Yin finally had time to worry about the restaurant, and soon, the restaurant was ready to open.

"Shitianxia opens today, 30% off for the first day?" A young man couldn't help but read out loud when he saw the words on the paper that had just been stuffed into his hands.

"Where, where, where is it? Let me see." A person next to him asked as he snatched the paper.

"Where else could it be? Of course it's the restaurant where the cooking competition was held a few days ago."

"Come on, let's go join in the fun."

There is an endless stream of guests at Shi Tian Xia. Two waiters, one male and one female, greet guests at the door. The restaurant is bustling and lively. On the stage in the middle of the first floor of the restaurant, dances, songs and storytelling are performed in turn, enjoying the visual, auditory and taste senses at the same time, making people reluctant to leave.

However, a man near the door suddenly fell to the ground, holding his stomach with both hands, rolling on the ground in pain, and yelling:

"Ouch, ouch, my stomach hurts. There's something wrong with the food I ate."

"What?" People around put down their chopsticks.

Seeing more and more people gathering around, the man shouted even louder:

"My stomach hurts so bad."

"There's something wrong with the food at Shi Tian Xia."

He kept shouting these words over and over again.

Gu Yin rushed over upon hearing the news, pushed through the crowd and asked:

"what happened?"

Seeing someone rolling on the ground, he told the waiter beside him to call a doctor, and then he squatted down to check.

However, when he saw that the person in front of him was shouting in pain but there was no sign of pain on his face, he thought that the troublemaker was coming.

Glancing at the tattered straw sandals on his feet and the clothes underneath which also looked tattered, Gu Yin stood up calmly, leaned close to Pearl's ear and whispered a few words, then stood there quietly watching the performance on the ground.

“Just leaving it like that?” Seeing that Gu Yin stood there for a long time without making any further move, the onlookers began to discuss in low voices.

"This is not taking human life seriously."

"You have no conscience, please don't eat here anymore."

The people on the ground heard the discussion and rolled even harder. Gu Yin was speechless. If the stomachache was that severe, after such a while, she probably wouldn't have the strength to struggle.

The discussion gradually died down, but unexpectedly, at this moment, a soft but clear voice came from the crowd:

"This person is so pitiful. He has a stomachache from eating something bad but no one cares..."

Gu Yin looked in the direction of the voice and saw a slender woman in green standing in the crowd. She glanced at Gu Yin after she finished speaking. A woman in blue next to her probably didn't expect her to speak at this time, so she quietly pulled her sleeve.

At this time, Zhenzhu came back with a dirty, broken bowl in her hand. She walked straight up and put the bowl in front of the man.

Before the man could react, Gu Yin grabbed a handful of copper coins and threw them into the bowl. Seeing the dozens of copper coins in the bowl, the man stood up and knelt down like a conditioned reflex, saying:

"Thank you, thank you, you are such a nice person."

"You're blocking the way. Please move to another place~" Gu Yin said coldly.

"Okay, okay, I'll leave right away."

As he said this, he walked out with his head down, holding the broken bowl. After taking a few steps, he found that the surroundings were eerily quiet. He raised his head and looked around, and saw pairs of eyes looking at him in disbelief.

At this time, everyone knew that this man was here to cause trouble, so they began to accuse him of having evil intentions. When that man saw this, he quickly slipped away.

Gu Yin didn't care about him, he was just being used. Gu Yin then comforted the guest, saying that the food from Shitianxia was safe.

Seeing that all the guests went back to eat, Gu Yin was about to leave. Unexpectedly, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the middle of the restaurant:

"Someone vomited blood!"
