Severed ties and living in a dilapidated house? No worries, the poor thing has a space.

"Yes, that's fine." Xiao Jingqi nodded in agreement without any hesitation.

With a slight smile, Fang Yu deliberately lowered his voice and asked, "May I ask Lord Xiao a rather private matter?"

The word "privacy" made Xiao Jingqi's eyes light up with anticipation. Although he didn't respond, his expression showed his agreement, and Fang Yu then spoke.

"I wonder how much salary Lord Xiao receives each year to afford such a large restaurant. Even if it's a loss-making business, he still wants to benefit the people of Qingshan City."

Fang Yu nodded again: "Lord Xiao is indeed a rare and excellent official."

When an ordinary citizen utters the words "good official," it's a form of recognition.

Xiao Jingqi shook his head slightly: "My ancestral home is in Qingshan City. Unfortunately, my ancestors encountered bandits, and our ancestral home was burned down. We moved away as a family. Fortunately, we have a place in Yunjing. It is the wish of my elders to do my part for the people of Qingshan City."

Fang Yu understood; that was a rich second-generation heir with plenty of money.

"Then I'll hand over all the arrangements for this barbecue to Manager Sun."

She took out two medicine bottles from her waist, each with different words written on it. Pointing to one of the bottles, she said, "After you finish this, your inability to eat sweet potatoes will be completely cured. You can drink the other one; it will only bring benefits and no harm."

Because the other bottle contains spiritual spring water.

Xiao Jingqi thought she had forgotten about it, and he was still thinking about when to bring it up with her.

He was about to speak when Fang Yu said first, "No need to thank me, consider this a farewell gift for Lord Xiao."

"Who gives medicine as a gift?"

Mo, who was standing at the door, overheard the conversation inside and muttered something under his breath.

Xiao Jingqi only heard the word "courtesy," and he accepted the medicine bottle: "Thank you, Miss Fang. Then I won't stand on ceremony."

"Let's eat the roast meat while it's hot, so I won't disturb Lord Xiao any longer."

Fang Yu got up, walked to the door, then stopped and looked back at him. In that one glance, the light in her eyes had changed a thousand times.

Since the other person was leaving, Fang Yu had no excuse to try to persuade them to stay, let alone in what capacity she should try to persuade them to stay.

Perhaps the next time we meet will be after she arrives in Yunjing.

Fang Yu told Fang Xin about handing over the barbecue business to Manager Sun. Fang Xin's first reaction was of course unwillingness, but then she thought that there might be more and more people selling barbecue in the future.

"Okay, then I'll do whatever my sister says."

The staff at Tianxianglou had been helping the two sisters lately, and they had actually learned how to grill meat.

With the barbecue business no longer going on, Fang Xin realized that her future income would be greatly reduced. Passing by a stall selling roasted chestnuts, she swallowed hard, feeling a little tempted to eat some.

But thinking about how much money she would need to build a house, she licked her lips and decided against it.

Fang Yu couldn't possibly miss her little scheme. She quickened her pace and walked toward the stall, saying, "Boss, a bag of roasted chestnuts, please."

"Sister." Fang Xin followed over and said softly, "I really don't want to eat, sister, please don't spend money on this."

"You don't want to eat?" Fang Yu teased her deliberately, "But what if I want to eat?"

“Then I’ll buy it. Whatever you want to eat, Xin’er will buy it for you.”

As expected, Fang Xin remained the same as always, willing to endure any hardship as long as Fang Yu was happy.

Fang Yu peeled the steaming chestnuts and fed them to her: "Xin'er, as I said, I'll let you eat all the delicious food in Qingshan City. You don't need to worry about money, I have my own way."

Upon hearing this, Fang Xin's eyes lit up, and she quickly chewed the chestnut in her mouth: "Sis, you really have a new way to make money?"

Fang Yu led her forward, saying, "Of course, so Xin'er, just tell your sister what you want to eat. Don't worry about the money."

Fang Xin really trusted Fang Yu and was very obedient. Wherever they went, if there was food for sale, she would buy some to try.

The basket was full of food. Fang Yu wiped the greasy corners of her mouth and said, "You go home first. I have some things to take care of. I'll be back later."

Fang Xin knew that there were still workers at home whose wages needed to be settled, so she obediently went back.

Fu Zhou appeared just after they left the city gate, took the basket from her, and was stopped by Fang Xin before she could even hang it on her back.

Fang Xin rummaged through her basket and found a lot of food, stuffing it into Fu Ju's hands: "These are all delicious, they all taste good. I've tried them all, you should like them too, try them."

Fu Ju was not only awkward, but also stood there in a daze, staring at the food in his hands, lost in thought.

"What's wrong?" Fang Xin asked, noticing he wasn't moving. "Is there nothing you like to eat?"

He took out the bag of roasted chestnuts from inside, and Fang Xin became even more excited, pressing her hand on his arm: "You like roasted chestnuts too?"

Fu Ju neither admitted nor denied it, but simply took out a seed, peeled it, and handed it to her: "Eat it."

Fang Xin didn't stand on ceremony and said as she ate, "Let's go home quickly."

Fang Yu went to visit various streets in Qingshan City. She wanted to find a suitable shop to open a food store.

We've already thought of a name: Qingshan Malatang.

I saw a shop in a good location ahead, with a "For Rent" sign hanging on the door.

Fang Yu stepped forward, glanced inside, and walked into the shop. A shop assistant at the counter immediately came out to greet her warmly: "Miss, are you here to look at the shop?"

Fang Yu looked around as soon as she entered. The shop had two floors, and a row of green plants was placed by the window, which looked quite nice.

Seeing her scrutinizing gaze, the waiter immediately began to introduce the shop: "If you're looking to open a restaurant, this is the perfect place. It used to be a restaurant, and it has everything you need."

"Can I see the backyard?"

"Please come in, young lady," the waiter said enthusiastically, leading the way.

Fang Yu had seen everything, from the front hall to the backyard and the second floor, and it was indeed very nice, matching her ideal shop layout in every aspect.

She had already finalized the rental arrangements with her partner and paid the deposit when a voice suddenly came from the doorway, stopping their transaction.

“I have already bought this shop; here is the contract.”

Fang Yu and the shop assistant turned around and saw Wang Yuan walking in with a slightly contemptuous expression, slamming the contract on the table.

The shopkeeper picked it up with some skepticism and took a look; it was indeed a contract.

The shopkeeper was caught in a dilemma, holding the contract meant for Fang Yu in one hand and the contract given to him by Wang Yuan in the other.

He was just a shopkeeper, and the contract was genuine. He could only apologize to Fang Yu first: "I'm sorry, miss, you're too late. This shop already belongs to this young master."

The waiter could tell that Fang Xi really liked this restaurant, so he chimed in, "Why don't you chat with this young master, young lady?"
