Half an hour late, Qi Yuan ignored Noah's advice and insisted on going to the place he had agreed to meet with Lun Nong.

Noah had no choice but to go out with him.

The snow in front of Davis's house was cleared long ago, but further out, you could see the city's environmental workers diligently sweeping the snow, which was above knee-deep, to both sides.

The snowplows were also working non-stop, accelerating their operations.

Despite this, the roads were still congested.

Their car was no longer able to drive, so they had to walk.

Fortunately, the place Qi Yuan and Lun Nong had agreed to meet was not far away. They arrived at the agreed-upon coffee shop after walking for twenty minutes.

When Qi Yuan arrived, Lun Nong had just arrived as well.

Covered in snow, he paused for a moment when he saw Qi Yuan and Noah at the door, then burst into laughter: "I knew that cooperating with Qi Yuan would definitely lead to seeing you, Noah, it's been a long time."

"You still want to pursue me?"

Seeing Lennon greet him directly, bypassing Qi Yuan, Noah couldn't help but feel puzzled by the bear.

“I’m very loyal,” Lun Nong said. “I’ll pursue you if I say I will! Qi Yuan is better looking than you, but I haven’t changed my mind.”

Noah smirked coldly, "Fine, keep bothering me like this, but don't try anything with A-Yuan."

"Noah, I heard you've been very busy lately. Haven't you caught your uncle yet?"

"What? You can help me catch it?"

Lennon's flattery did not elicit any good attitude from Noah; Noah still faced him with a cold face.

Lennon said, "If I help you catch Uncle Ryan, and you're willing to stay with me, I'll help you catch him."

"Don't try to do business with me, and don't talk to me again. Weren't you going to talk to A-Yuan about a restaurant partnership?"

Noah's patience in talking to Lennon at this moment was purely out of respect for Qi Yuan.

If it weren't for Qi Yuan, he wouldn't have wanted to say another word to Lun Nong.

"A restaurant isn't worth much, go ahead and open it." Lennon rarely gets to see Noah, and he wanted to talk to him right now. He really didn't think much of a restaurant.

His words displeased Qi Yuan. "Mr. Lunnong, if you don't have the sincerity to cooperate, then I'll leave."

"Wait, don't go! I'm sincere, let's go inside and talk!"

Lennon quickly stopped Qi Yuan and invited Qi Yuan and Noah into the coffee shop.

Although Lennon really wanted to talk to Noah, he could only put aside his thoughts and focus on discussing cooperation with Qi Yuan so that Sera could eat dumplings to her heart's content every day.

Qi Yuan's initial plan was for the three of them to each run a different Dongzhou restaurant, so that they wouldn't compete for customers or business.

Lennon had no other requirements for the restaurants he partnered with, except that they had to sell dumplings!

Qi Yuan readily agreed to this request.

Dumplings are currently the most popular food among the people of Juecheng because they are easy to carry, quick to prepare, and taste good.

Office workers who don't have much time to eat hot pot often eat dumplings during their lunch break.

Qiyuan Restaurant's dumplings are still in high demand and short supply, so they're not afraid to give up some customers.

After signing the contract, the dishes need to be ordered.

Qi Yuan had already thought of several dishes, but he didn't know how well everyone would accept them. So, he asked Lun Nong to find a kitchen, find the ingredients, and then he would cook them. Lun Nong would taste them, and if they were acceptable, then those dishes would be decided.

After that, he wrote down the recipes and gave them to the chefs to learn.

After learning the skills, the chef opened a restaurant and started a business.

Based on the unique ingredients of Juecheng, Qi Yuan prepared the following dishes: garlic vermicelli shrimp, sweet and sour pork, roasted ribs, garlic crab, and garlic shrimp.

This area is rich in aquatic products, so we can make seasonal special dishes based on which season the aquatic products are plentiful. For now, Qiyuan has decided on these few dishes.

Noah also has a job.

He and Qi Yuan met Lun Nong mainly to see if Lun Nong had any improper thoughts about Qi Yuan. As it turned out, they found that Lun Nong did have improper thoughts about him, so they were relieved.

He didn't stay there for long before parting ways with Qi Yuan to go to work at the company.

Qi Yuan and Lennon found a Milne family restaurant and borrowed its kitchen.

The ingredients Qi Yuan needed were quickly found in the restaurant's kitchen. Qi Yuan put on an apron and began processing the ingredients.

His skillful movements left Lennon speechless. "Qi Yuan, you're such a good cook? Did you study cooking specifically for this purpose?"

"I've studied it specifically."

Learning by watching videos is also a form of learning.

Qi Yuan is still very modest; even after watching the video, he doesn't think he learned it on his own.

“But who taught you to cook while you were in prison? I remember the prison you were in before only had you as the only person from East Asia,” Lennon muttered to himself.

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan stopped what he was doing and turned to look at him.

But he quickly resumed what he was doing, knowing that these powerful families all knew his background and identity.

Just like Noah, Noah would also investigate anyone connected to the other three great families.

“When you start being a picky eater, you’ll learn it on your own,” Qi Yuan said.

Lennon scratched the back of his head and said, "I don't understand."

Qi Yuan didn't expect him to know much, so after preparing the ingredients, he started cooking.

The first dish to be prepared was sweet and sour pork, with a sweet and sour taste. Lun Nong fell in love with the flavor after just one bite, and Qi Yuan then let A Sha taste it as well.

Asha is a huge fan of Qi Yuan. He says anything Qi Yuan gives him is delicious, and it really is delicious.

Qi Yuan cooked the dishes he had prepared for Lun Nong to try one after another. There was a reason why Lun Nong was so big; he really wasn't a picky eater and ate almost anything.

He praised every dish Qi Yuan made, saying it was delicious, which made Qi Yuan a little embarrassed.

Daphne somehow learned that Qi Yuan and Lennon were researching new dishes, and she arrived when Qi Yuan was making the third dish.

So I joined in the food tasting.

Daphne is a bit picky about food. She thinks the other dishes are okay, but sweet and sour pork and Kung Pao chicken are her two favorite dishes.

So much so that Daphne wanted to sell these two dishes in her own restaurant, but Qi Yuan arranged for Daphne's restaurant to serve roasted whole lamb and lamb soup.

Many people in the North Continent raise sheep, and mutton and beef are the most commonly consumed meats. Since they are the most commonly consumed meats in the North Continent, it means that they have a high acceptance of mutton and beef.

This is a restaurant in the North Continent that uses common meats, making it a sure-fire way to make money.

When Daphne heard that Qi Yuan was going to sell two kinds of dishes, she was reluctant, but she had never tasted them. However, seeing how many delicious dishes Qi Yuan made, she became blindly confident in his cooking skills.

After spending a day with Lennon and Daphne, Qi Yuan parted ways with them as it was already getting dark.

When he dragged his tired body home, as soon as he stepped through the door, the butler came up to him and said, "Mr. Qi Yuan, Mr. Xiu and Mr. Shi Bai have arrived."
