Jiang Botao and Jiang Wenxuan felt apologetic towards Liu Yan, especially Jiang Wenxuan, who kept calling her "Aunt Liu" and apologizing, which made Liu Yan feel embarrassed.

Liu Yan was very grateful to the two men. If they hadn't shown up today, things might have turned out badly. Liu Yan earnestly invited them to stay for dinner.

Upon hearing that he could stay for a free meal again, Jiang Wenxuan's eyes lit up, and he swallowed hard, his anticipation undisguised.

Seeing his son's behavior, Jiang Botao thought to himself that this brat was really hopeless. He had taken him to eat countless delicacies, so why was he still acting so ignorant?

Half an hour later, as Jiang Botao tasted each steaming, fragrant dish, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, it smells so good!"

He had already found out that Liu's Restaurant, which Nie Qianqian owned, was doing very well. The food was indeed delicious, no wonder it was so popular.

Jiang Wenxuan ate to his heart's content, and his words were even sweeter than usual. "Aunt Liu, you look so different today! You are beautiful and radiant, and you even look a few years younger."

Hearing the praise, Liu Yan blushed slightly and smiled. "You silly child, you always tease me. It was Qianqian who dressed me up today."

Jiang Wenxuan: "I'm not joking, I've always been the one to speak the truth."

Jiang Botao didn't know what Liu Yan looked like before, nor did he know about the changes. He only felt that Liu Yan's appearance was not like the rural women he usually knew.

After finishing their meal, Jiang Botao, still thinking about business, asked, "The business partnership that Madam Nie mentioned earlier, is it about opening a restaurant together?"

Contrary to Jiang Botao's expectations, Nie Qianqian smiled and shook her head, "No."

Jiang Botao: "What is that?"

Nie Qianqian smiled and said, "The business opportunity is hidden in what Jiang Wenxuan just said."

Jiang Botao recalled what his son had just said, "Is it a business of dressing up women?"

Nie Qianqian nodded: "What I want to cooperate with Mr. Jiang on is this women's business. Women dress up for those they love, men can spend a fortune for the women they love, and women can also spend a fortune for their own beauty. There is great potential in the women's business."

"However, the cooperation model I want may be different from what Mr. Jiang has encountered before, so it needs to be made clear beforehand."

Jiang Botao nodded, "Please speak, my wife."

"My proposed collaboration is for us to each invest capital, and I will provide the goods for sale. These goods are all developed by myself and can be guaranteed to be unique in the market, with no other company able to match them. I will be responsible for the future store location selection, decoration, staff recruitment, and goods supply. Mr. Jiang cannot interfere. We will jointly manage the finances, and each of us can appoint an accountant to check the accounts monthly. Mr. Jiang has been deeply involved in Fulin County for many years and has rich experience. His business has even expanded to the provincial capital, and he has extensive connections. I would like to ask Mr. Jiang to be responsible for the external sales expansion and relationship management of this business. What do you think of this business model? Is Mr. Jiang willing to accept it?"

In short, Jiang Botao and Nie Qianqian each invested financially, with Nie Qianqian in charge of product development and daily operations, while Jiang Botao used his personal connections to handle sales through external channels.

Having been in business for so many years, Mr. Jiang understood what Nie Qianqian was saying immediately. The cooperation method proposed by Nie Qianqian was to gain autonomy in the business. She would develop the products herself, thus preventing Jiang Botao from interfering with the production and manufacturing of the products, and preventing the theft of her secret recipes.

Jiang Botao understood perfectly. After a moment's thought, he agreed, "The cooperation method proposed by Madam Nie can maximize the strengths of both of us. It is very reasonable, and I can accept it."

Nie Qianqian raised her wine glass, "That's wonderful. Then let's wish each other a pleasant collaboration in advance."

Jiang Botao finished his drink and then realized that not only was the food delicious, but the wine was also strong and mellow, something he had never tasted anywhere else.

Who would have thought that such fine wine and delicacies were hidden in the small, dilapidated old houses of Qinghe Village?

This Nie Qianqian is truly extraordinary.

Jiang Botao was even more excited about the women's business that Nie Qianqian had mentioned. "Madam Nie, what exactly will we be selling in this business, and when will we start?"

He couldn't wait any longer.

Nie Qianqian: "No rush. We still need time to finalize the specifics of what to sell, where to sell it, and our cooperation details."

Liu Yan listened from the side. Although Nie Qianqian didn't say anything, she knew that Qianqian always did market research before doing these businesses.

Nie Qianqian not only needs to conduct market research, but also needs to carefully consider what cosmetics from the space are suitable and have a market. In addition, she needs time to investigate whether her partner is reliable.

Liu Xiong and Huang Zhenzhu listened in stunned silence. How important was this Master Jiang? He commanded respect and authority in front of Steward Zhou without even raising his voice, and he had the arrogant Steward Zhou completely under his thumb. They both respected and feared Master Jiang. They didn't dare to make too much noise while eating, and they didn't dare to look Master Jiang in the eye.

Yet this very person is so approachable, discussing business cooperation with Nie Qianqian, and it seems he's eager to collaborate with her.

Every time they thought Nie Qianqian was truly capable, she would once again surpass their expectations.

When Jiang Botao heard that Nie Qianqian needed time to finalize things, he didn't ask or urge her again. Instead, he personally poured Nie Qianqian a full glass of wine, raised his glass, and said, "Wenxuan and Young Master Gu are classmates. First, Madam Nie and Doctor Qian saved my life, and now you want to cooperate in business. It is clear that we have a deep connection. I would like to offer this toast and invite everyone here to my residence another day. I will prepare some simple wine and invite you all to drink together."

Jiang Wenxuan knew his father's temperament; he was the type who wouldn't act until he saw a clear benefit, and who always had nine different plans in mind. He couldn't understand why his father valued Nie Qianqian so much and wanted to do business with her.

Everyone present raised their glasses and drank them down in one gulp.

Although there were some twists and turns in today's auspicious roof-raising ceremony, it turned out without any major incidents, and Liu Yan and the others gradually relaxed.

Huang Zhenzhu was still terrified when she recalled what had happened today. She was not a good drinker, but now she was drinking one cup after another. With the help of alcohol, she took Liu Yan and Nie Qianqian's hands and said with red eyes, "Yan, Qianqian, I'm so sorry to you two. I told Huang Xiuxiu that Yan had no intention of staying at home. I didn't expect her to be so stubborn and bring people to propose marriage directly, and even try to kidnap the bride. If it weren't for Master Jiang, today would have been a disaster. It was my family who had bad intentions. It's all my fault, my fault."

As she spoke, she broke down in tears. The alcohol had taken its toll, and she cried harder and harder, unable to stop.

Nie Qianqian wasn't one to make a big deal out of things. "Aunt, after Huang Xiuxiu came to you, you told me right away. I know in my heart that this isn't your fault, so you don't need to blame yourself too much."
