She transmigrated into a widow and farmed to raise vests.

Cui Ming hadn't originally intended to listen.

But they didn't hide anything from him, which touched him somewhat.

However, after listening, I still felt that Qin Yu's mind was working very fast.

He listened with great enthusiasm and even wanted to watch them operate the equipment.

But now that I have my manuscript in hand, I've already wasted a day.

We couldn't delay any longer, so it's a pity we couldn't see their success.

The next morning, Xu Shaoting personally saw Cui Ming off on his carriage back to Yuzhou.

Before leaving, Cui Ming didn't forget to say something to Qin Yu.

"Madam Qin, this story is over. When will the next story begin? You must sell it to me! Don't worry, I'll definitely give you a satisfactory price!"

Qin Yu chuckled helplessly, and the two of them saw him off together.

After Cui Ming left.

Qin Yu and Xu Shaoting discussed the crayfish matter.

The date for starting sales was quickly decided.

The kitchen staff had already learned how to do it, and specially arranged for two people to go to the countryside first to catch lobsters with Qin Yu.

One day passed.

The village began a flurry of activity in purchasing crayfish.

I made a point of promoting it in the village and openly taught them how to catch crayfish.

So even before nightfall, the surrounding villages were already in a crayfish-catching frenzy.

The next morning, they were all sold to Yunlaiju.

Before the other restaurants could react.

Yunlaiju is making a big show of preparing new dishes.

For regular customers, a limited-time offer of one pound of lobster per table.

The food ran out just when the guests were still craving more, and their taste buds were piqued, so they naturally ordered more.

And so, a day passed.

Yunlaiju sold 100 jin of lobsters.

Soon after, people in the surrounding villages also heard about the crayfish.

I only found out about crayfish after asking around.

I also heard that Yunlaiju is making a large-scale purchase and everyone has started catching lobsters.

Business is getting better and better.

That day, Qin Yu and Xu Shaoting had just gone up to the second floor.

I heard that the county magistrate's wife was in a private room with several other ladies.

As the young master of the family, Xu Shaoting could not afford to offend officials.

So he personally carried two bowls of crayfish into the private room.

I could hear their conversation as soon as I entered.

"Oh dear, don't worry! This Young Master Qin is elusive; it's perfectly normal that he hasn't shown up yet!"

The county magistrate's wife, Xu Hailan, kept comforting the women opposite her.

One of them also joined in comforting them.

"Everyone says they are destined for immortality, how could they be found so easily? You are all too impatient!"

"If it weren't for the results on your faces, I would have suspected you two were lying to me!"

The woman sighed as she finished speaking.

As if remembering something, he continued.

"Fine, you yourself said you're destined for immortality, so I can only wait!"

"That's right, don't be impatient. My husband said that Young Master Qin said he would come in a month!"

Xu Hailan patted her back to comfort her.

"You said that a month has passed and nothing has happened yet, how can I not be anxious?"

Lin Shishi then became somewhat sad again.

I wonder when this Young Master Qin will appear.

"Since you and my sister just arrived, I'll take you to our restaurant. I've heard that the food here is unique, and they've even added some new dishes these past few days!"

Xu Hailan was speaking.

Xu Shaoting had already knocked on the door of the side room.

"Ladies, I am Xu Shaoting, the young master of Yunlaiju!"

As Xu Shaoting spoke, the waiters behind him brought in the dishes one by one.

"This is a specialty of our store."

"This is Guan Gong Stew, made with pork bone broth. It contains mushrooms, vegetables, fish balls, egg dumplings, and more."

"This is called braised offal. It's made with our shop's special recipe and braised for a whole day and night to let the flavors penetrate!"

"This is a new dish... Thirteen-Spice Crayfish!"

Xu Shaoting introduced each dish one by one, in addition to the original dishes in the restaurant.

In addition to the unique features of the store now.

"I've heard that your restaurant's dishes are amazing, and I've been wanting to try them for ages!"

Xu Hailan was also happy.

Since her face healed, she is no longer someone who doesn't want to go out.

She became radiant and confident.

I originally wanted to come to Yunlaiju with my husband.

But lately, Zhao Lin has been so busy with rice planting that he hasn't had a moment to spare.

Where would they find the time to come with me?

Unexpectedly, my sister brought Lin Shishi with her.

Although I came here specifically to see Young Master Qin.

But I had to entertain them, and it just so happened that I came to Yunlaiju with them.

"It is my honor that you ladies have come to Yunlaiju. I hope the food will suit your tastes."

Xu Shaoting knew she was the county magistrate's wife.

The magistrate's wife was certainly not an ordinary person when she entertained guests.

Of course, we couldn't refuse to entertain them.

"Ladies, if you have any requests, please send someone to summon me!"

"Master Xu, do you know any young master Qin?"

Xu Hailan thought that the young master might know.

Still hoping, I inquired about it!

Xu Shaoting thought about it carefully. Young Master Qin? Never heard of him.

"I'm sorry, Madam, I don't know of such a person. Let me inquire for you!"

Even if you don't know it yourself, you can ask around.

Since it was the magistrate's wife who came to see me, it must be something important.

Seeing that the ladies had stopped talking, Xu Shaoting tactfully walked out.

Accounting

"These are fish balls from a month ago, before they were delivered to the workshop. They cost 300 coins each."

Qin Yu carefully checked the records one by one, afraid that he might have missed something.

"Okay, the fish ball accounts are settled now. This is the money for last month's spice packet. Please check it!"

Xu Shaoting handed her a box and placed the account book in front of her.

Qin Yu glanced at it, nodded, and took the money.

Once he saw that she was alright, he felt relieved.

He dared not do anything underhanded with the accounts.

It was because Qin Yu completely trusted him that he couldn't possibly falsify the accounts.

We must not do anything to deceive Qin Yu.

"Qin Yu, where did you learn your skills and abilities? How come you're so amazing?" Xu Shaoting couldn't help but exclaim.

Qin Yu looked up.

Who would believe her story?

Even if someone believed her, she wouldn't say it.

We can't take that risk!

The perfect excuse is that she disappeared when she was a child.

"I got lost when I was little!" Qin Yu used this excuse to the end.

"An elderly couple saved me, but they were poor and had nothing to eat, so they ate anything they could find!"

In fact, in her previous life, she was abandoned on the street after birth.

It was that grandmother who saved her; that grandmother was indeed poor.

But he never mistreated her.

They eat everything; in spring they dig for wild vegetables and mushrooms, and in summer they catch fish and snails.

Not to mention snakes, they've even eaten weasels.

Later, after becoming a secret agent, he ate whatever was available in the wild, even insects when he was hungry!

Xu Shaoting didn't know how to comfort her, nor did he know whether to say she was lucky or unlucky.

"Luckily, you learned a lot of skills after all that!"
