Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

"Why... do you say that?"

Wan Shu was a little flustered as Qin Ming pushed her into the corner with his big hands.

Qin Ming had already figured everything out, and said calmly:

"I told you about the restaurant before, but you didn't tell me at the time. Instead, you were very supportive."

"You wanted me to fight against the local big families then, right?"

"Are you telling me this now because you feel guilty, or are you afraid of being discovered by me?"

As the general manager of the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce, Wan Shu has never been able to extend his hands to the businesses of local wealthy families.

She thought of Qin Ming, the dragon crossing the river.

If they can make trouble, the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce can reap the benefits.

With a whimper!

Wan Shu's face flushed red, but he stopped struggling.

Qin Ming raised a hint of disdain on his lips and was about to act more unruly when a creaking sound suddenly came from outside the door.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

Swish!

The two separated quickly as if they had been electrocuted, pretending nothing had happened.

"These are two new dishes I brought back from the restaurant."

Qin Ming opened the oil paper package, revealing two delicious dishes.

"There's something delicious again!"

Guan Yue rushed over in a few steps, threw herself into Qin Ming's arms, and hung on Qin Ming like an octopus.

Feeling the warmth in his arms, Qin Ming felt relieved.

"Go get some dishes and chopsticks, and eat together. We've been waiting for you for quite some time."

"Oh good!"

Guan Yue secretly kissed Qin Ming and left lightly without noticing anything unusual.

After she left, Qin Ming coldly reminded Wan Shu who was sitting next to him:

"I won't bother with you about this matter, but if you dare to attack Xiaoyue..."

"I won't do anything to Xiaoyue."

Soon, the three of them finished their meal.

Qin Ming went out and came to Chang Baishan's residence in Linjiang City.

"Who is behind this reception building? After your investigation the past two days, do you know anything?"

After Chang Baishan walked out of the courtyard, he asked doubtfully:

"He's just an ordinary guy, nothing to be afraid of."

"Oh?"

Qin Ming raised his eyebrows. This seemed a little different from what Wan Shu said.

"Okay, arrange a few people to keep an eye on their movements over the next few days to make sure nothing goes wrong."

Although Chang Baishan was confused, since it was Qin Ming's request, he agreed and prepared to arrange a few people to continue watching tomorrow.

On the morning of the second day, Qin Ming came to the restaurant.

To his surprise, although Chef Yi had to take a lot of twists and turns today, he still made it here.

"You just got ten canes yesterday. What are you doing?"

"Your Highness, I can still cook. Even if I can't cook, at least I can cut vegetables."

Chef Yi quickly explained that he actually wanted to make more contributions to the restaurant.

Hearing this, Qin Ming nodded.

"Okay, go ahead and get busy."

After waiting for two hours, it was almost noon.

Their first wave of guests also arrived.

Qin Ming sat at the door of the store, looking at the reception building in the distance.

Chang Baishan also came back with a few people and reported:

"Your Highness, I didn't see their boss coming over. I heard he has several businesses and is busy running around everywhere every day. I don't think he'll be here in the near future. But they do have a lot fewer customers today; they all came to our place."

After what happened yesterday, many people in Linjiang City now know that Yingbinlou was plagiarized by Qin Ming.

If they want to eat, they will naturally choose Qin Ming's place.

After all, Qin Ming was the one who created those dishes.

"Okay, keep watching."

Although the prices of Qin Ming's dishes are relatively high, most people want to try them after hearing that they taste good.

This also made Qin Ming earn a lot of money.

Just as Qin Ming was about to leave, a table of diners suddenly started making a commotion.

"There are bugs in your vegetables?!"

"How disgusting!"

Qin Ming was stunned for a moment, then he and Chang Baishan walked over quickly.

When I came to them, I saw there was a fly in their dish.

"I'll make another one for you. This table can skip it."

Without any hesitation, Qin Ming winked at Chang Baishan.

Chang Baishan immediately went to the counter to get some money and handed it to the troublemakers.

"That's pretty much it!"

Several thug-like men immediately put the money in their pockets and nodded with satisfaction.

But they still speak loudly because they think they are right.

"You have such a big restaurant, you can't make this kind of food all day long!"

"That's right, luckily we are easy to talk to, otherwise your reputation would be ruined today!"

"Yeah, that's what you said."

Qin Ming did not refute and responded with a smile.

After making another meal and paying for the table, they finally finished their meal and left.

This was just a small problem. Qin Ming planned to hold a small meeting after finishing work today and let Yi the chef and others pay attention to this situation.

But as soon as he turned around, Qin Ming heard a noisy sound.

"We found a bug too!"

"Compensate!"

Their calls quickly attracted diners around.

"Doesn't this Lingnan Restaurant claim to be the best restaurant in Linjiang City?"

"Yeah, even with this, such a terrible thing happened!"

"No more eating, no more eating, let's go, go, go."

Over and over again, many people left after seeing this scene.

It was only then that Qin Ming realized that things were not that simple. These people seemed to be coming in groups in an organized and premeditated manner.

Coming to the people who had just spoken, Qin Ming whispered:

"Everyone, did you find bugs in your food too?"

"Yeah, look!"

As they spoke, several people pointed with their chopsticks.

Qin Ming took a deep breath and said to Chang Baishan:

"Refund the money and change the dishes."

"Your Highness, I feel something is wrong."

When things developed to this point, Chang Baishan also realized that something was wrong.

Qin Ming said slowly:

"Someone must be behind this. Arrange a few people to pretend to be ordinary diners and sit in the restaurant. Watch those who eat and observe their movements. If anyone really makes false accusations, catch them in the act."

"understood."

After Qin Ming and Chang Baishan dealt with the people at the second table, they dispersed their forces to keep an eye on them.

The person behind the scenes seemed to have noticed something different.

There was no movement at this time.

Nothing happened until I finished my work at noon.

"Is it just a coincidence?"

Qin Ming sat in the lobby with a frown, thinking in his heart.

In the evening, Cao Chuan brought people to deliver the ingredients needed for tomorrow.

"Your Highness, the Nanyang merchant caravan is arriving soon. The textile mill's production is very high, and Lord Fang said the silk inventory is almost full. Would you like to contact the Nanyang merchant caravan?"

"Walk."

Compared with the Nanyang caravan, the few freeloaders in the restaurant were nothing.

Qin Ming stood up and followed Cao Chuan towards the textile factory.

The tens of thousands of pieces of silk he had accumulated before were finally available!
