I have been farming since I crossed over.

The group leisurely headed towards Kaoshan County, and after a long journey, they finally arrived at their destination. Without stopping, they headed straight for the bustling commercial street.

As soon as he arrived at the commercial street, Lu Da couldn't wait to rush towards Lu Dashan. It turned out that he came here with an important mission - to bring his elder brother back, because his master had an urgent task to give him.

The rest of the group began to leisurely explore the commercial street. Surprisingly, the business model here was exactly the same as in Qingshui County. Whether it was the layout of the shops or the types of goods on sale, it all felt familiar.

Lu Changfeng and Lu Jinyan also happened to be there. When they saw Yang Mingxi and Lu Jintang, Lu Changfeng hurried forward and said, "Oh my, I didn't expect you to arrive so soon. We originally thought we would have to wait until tomorrow!"

Lu Jinyan also agreed, "Yes, judging from your previously planned itinerary, your arrival so quickly is indeed beyond our expectations!"

Lu Jintang smiled slightly and responded, "There's nothing I can do. Time is running out and I really can't waste a single minute!" After that, he sighed softly.

"Well, time is indeed a bit tight." Lu Changfeng frowned slightly and said, looking at everyone, "How long have you been here? Come on, let me show you around and check if there are any areas that need further adjustments."

Yang Mingxi smiled and responded, "Big Brother, Second Brother, please don't bother showing us around again. We've already taken a close look. Now let's find a suitable place to sit down and discuss the details of the Twelve opening. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Lu Changfeng nodded in agreement: "Okay, then let's not waste time and come over here quickly! If we find other problems or areas that need adjustment later, we can deal with them slowly." With that, he turned around and led everyone in one direction.

After a while, they arrived at a spacious and bright room. Lu Changfeng raised his hand and gently pushed the door open. Then, turning back to introduce it to the people behind him, he said, "This is the lounge prepared for the employees from now on. It's not only well located, but also spacious enough for everyone to fully rest and relax here."

Yang Mingxi nodded slightly in agreement and said, "No problem, let's meet here to discuss it. Let's chat first, and then we can discuss matters related to Lu Dashan after he arrives."

As soon as the words fell, everyone took their seats quickly and in an orderly manner.

Yang Mingxi glanced around and confirmed that everyone was present. A relieved smile appeared on her face, and she said slowly, "From now on, this place will be managed by my cousin Hai. However, he is currently preparing for his own wedding and is too busy to take care of it. Therefore, for the time being, Lu Dashan will take over the management. As for the specific situation with Lu Dashan, we will discuss it in detail later.

Next, I will assign each of you your respective responsibilities. "I'll trouble you, Mrs. Liu, to take care of the workshop; Mrs. Zhang will take full charge of the commercial street; the restaurant will naturally be led by the fat chef; and as for the teahouse, I'll let Lu Ba stay here to assist you. In addition, I've already informed my third uncle about the cloth shop. He will arrange for someone to come and help, and they'll probably arrive tonight or tomorrow at the latest. I'll have to ask my eldest and second brothers to keep an eye on it and make sure nothing goes wrong!" Yang Mingxi finished speaking in one breath, and introduced the people in charge to Lu Jinyan and Lu Changfeng, letting them get used to each other first, and she would solve any problems she had.

"Master, I'm late! I'm so sorry!" Before anyone stepped into the threshold, Lu Dashan's loud voice came in, his words full of anxiety and regret.

Yang Mingxi smiled slightly and waved her hand gently: "It's okay, you're here at the right time. I have something to explain to you. From today on, you will be temporarily responsible for managing this commercial street. Half a month later, my cousin Hai will come to take over. You just need to do a good job of handing over then. Can you do it?" Her tone was calm and gentle.

When Lu Dashan heard this, he puffed out his chest and responded loudly: "No problem! Madam Yao, don't worry, I promise to complete the task successfully!" His eyes were firm and confident.

Mrs. Zhang was discussing with Lu Changfeng the time it would take to prepare each snack and how to arrange them properly. However, Lu Dashan's resounding voice caught her attention like a magnet. She instinctively raised her head and looked towards the source of the sound.

Lu Dashan was tall and imposing, standing there like an iron tower. His square face exuded a simple and honest aura that immediately struck a chord with everyone. Mrs. Zhang stared at him in a daze, thinking to herself: What a strong man!

Lu Dashan was listening intently to Yang Mingxi's instructions when he suddenly felt as if someone was staring at him. He raised his eyes sharply and met Mrs. Zhang's infatuated gaze. The moment their eyes met, Lu Dashan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a friendly smile.

When Mrs. Zhang saw Lu Dashan actually smiling at her, she felt a surge of reunion. She felt her heart pounding like a frightened deer, as if it was about to burst out of her throat.

Lu Dashan stared at Mrs. Zhang, and suddenly seemed to be frightened by something. He stood up in a panic and said hurriedly: "Madam Yao, please wait a moment, I'm going out for a while and will be back soon." After that, he ran out of the door in a hurry without waiting for everyone's response.

Seeing this, Yang Mingxi thought that Lu Dashan suddenly had to go to the bathroom and needed to take care of a personal problem, so she nodded slightly to show her agreement and said softly, "Go!"

A moment later, Lu Dashan came running back, breathless, clutching a massive bitter melon. He quickly strode to the table, gently placed the melon on it, and then, with his large, fan-like hand, slapped it hard. Instantly, the melon cracked, shattering into numerous small pieces.

Lu Dashan quickly picked up one of the pieces, walked over to Mrs. Zhang, and handed it to her attentively, saying with a smile on his face, "It's really hot today. Everyone, try this bitter melon first to relieve the heat and cool down!"

Lu Dashan waited until Mrs. Zhang took the bitter melon before he deftly distributed the rest of the bitter melon to everyone present.

Seeing Lu Dashan's actions, Yang Mingxi asked curiously, "Brother Lu, where did you get this bitter melon? We haven't seen any ripe bitter melons here recently." As she spoke, she looked at Lu Dashan with a smile, as if she wanted to see some clues from his expression.

Lu Dashan scratched his head and answered honestly, "Madam, these bitter melons were given to us yesterday when we went to the dock in Jiaoshan Town to do some business. They said it was a gift from someone else, and they tasted amazing. So, I thought I'd bring some back for everyone to try."

After listening to this, Yang Mingxi smiled and nodded, agreeing: "Yes, that's true. In such hot weather, it's really pleasant to eat a bite of bitter melon, right, Sister Zhang?" As she spoke, she deliberately raised her voice, turned her head to look at Sister Zhang, her eyes seemed to be full of deep meaning.

"Yes... yes, it's really comfortable!" Mrs. Zhang said with a red face and stammering. Her slightly nervous look made people feel pity for her.

Yang Mingxi gently raised her eyes, her gaze like a torch shooting towards Lu Dashan beside her. She saw Lu Dashan staring at Zhang Saozi infatuatedly, his eyes revealing an indescribable obsession and attachment, as if the whole world was left with only this beautiful woman in front of him.

Seeing this scene, Yang Mingxi's lips curled up slightly, and she secretly laughed in her heart. She thought to herself: "Look at Lu Dashan, his eyes are about to fall out of his head. But some words can't be said too much, otherwise, trouble will come. Look, retribution is coming soon!"
