"The Xuanhu Xuanjiao has collected money and will not stop until it achieves its goal. I don't care what your status is."
"If you agree, I will protect you."
Ye Yun met Lan Yuxiang's eyes and did not doubt his seriousness at the moment, but he did not clearly explain what he promised.
"Thank you, Mr. Deputy Ambassador, for informing me that the answer is still the same as the daughter of the people."
Lan Yuxiang did not expect to be rejected for the second time, so his expression became cold and he did not speak again.
Ye Yun handed the jade token deeper.
"The daughter of the people has a heartless request. The third sister of the family ran away from home twenty days ago and has disappeared without any news. Please send someone to help search for her."
"But, just think of it as your contribution to alcohol."
Lan Yuxiang pursed his lips and walked away.
Seeing that he didn't accept the jade token, Ye Yun called several times but got no response, so he had no choice but to put it away.
"He Xiang will probably wake up tomorrow. You will take good care of her. If you need anything, come to me."
In the house, Gong Jingsong gave the prescribed medicine to Mr. He Xiang and waited for Ye Yun and others to finish speaking.
Doctor Wang insisted on sending them in a carriage, and Ye Yun and the two were not polite, and got on the carriage back to the village to rest.
The people in the village were chatting with Ye Yun enthusiastically, and Ye Yun and the others were sleeping soundly in the house.
Even the naughty civet cat Lizi slept soundly on Ye Yun.
They slept until the next morning, only to be woken up by their grumbling stomachs.
"Come on, let's go to the town to have a big meal to make up for the worry these days."
Ye Yun finished washing, and with a smile, he took out the small wooden box given by Aunt Shen that day from the corner of the room.
Opening it, it was a luminous pearl of fine quality. She waved her hand generously.
"Hiss - Night Pearl, is this the Night Pearl? We have never seen it until now."
Mother Ye and her daughter held it in their hands and looked at it, even breathing carefully, for fear of accidentally falling to the ground.
Gong Jingsong, master and apprentice, and Qin Xian had pale expressions. They were only interested in the feast for a while, and their stomachs rumbled in unison.
"The Night Pearl can definitely be used as a lot of money. After the feast, I went to look at the shops and bought the ones that were suitable."
Ye Yun smiled at the strange expressions of his mother and the others, and flexed his fingers to make plans.
"It's almost mid-autumn, and the jelly won't last long. With the skills of the eldest and second sisters, it's not a problem to open a clothing store. Then we can open a restaurant or a small restaurant in partnership with Sister Fang. By the way, we will also open a small drug store with the master."
"Xiaoyun, you have planned everything. I can't help you because you are only twelve years old."
Ye Yun was hugged by his mother who had tears in her eyes. He wiped his tears helplessly while comforting his mother.
My mother really loves to cry.
Their identities and ages were reversed, and she looked helpless, which was quite joyful.
Several people couldn't help but laugh, and the sourness in their noses disappeared.
"Is the benefactor here?"
A young boy's questioning voice sounded at the door, and Ye Yun and others followed the voice and went out.
It was Xiaojing. He led two oxen and stood outside.
"Benefactor, Sister Fang asked me to treat you to a big dinner at Fumanlou. Thank you for saving your life."
Koi greeted.
"Coincidentally, we are also planning to go to town for a big meal."
Ye Yun and his party got on the bullock cart with a smile and were chased by the people all the way into the town as if they were looking at monkeys. Many people enthusiastically praised or apologized.
Ye Yun's face froze with laughter before he went to the private room opened by Sister Fang of Fumanlou.
"Being a celebrity is tiring."
You have to keep a low profile from now on, as being too public can easily lead to trouble.
She rubbed her face and sighed helplessly, causing her master to lose her mind.
"Be modest. Yingfang, you are welcome. Today Xiaoyun said she is treating her, so please enjoy it."
"Is there any master who cheats his apprentices like you?"
Ye Yun's face fell for only a second before he asked everyone to have fun, "I have a lot of money in my pocket, don't be afraid."
The two of them gave in, and in the end, Ye Yun won.
After choosing the dishes, Sister Fang left the private room and did not return for a long time.
"My benefactor, Sister Fang is an excellent cook. I guarantee that you will be satisfied with your meal!"
Xiaojing explained while serving them tea and water, taking good care of them.
With full expectations, Ye Yun and others welcomed a table of delicious and delicious meals.
They had no habit of eating and sleeping without talking, but because the food was so delicious, they were too busy grabbing the food to talk.
Soon after the dishes were empty, everyone rubbed their overstuffed bellies and started talking to each other.
"Uh! Sister Fang, your cooking skills are so good, you are worthy of being a chef's apprentice."
Ye Yun couldn't help but cover his mouth and burped, and sheepishly poured Sister Fang a glass of Daughter's Red.
"Sister Fang, what are your plans next?"
"I have lived a good life as a cook. I plan to set up a stall selling steamed buns and wontons first, and then save enough money to open my own shop."
Sister Fang's answer was in line with Ye Yun's expectation, "I have money and you have skills. Why don't we open a restaurant together?"
"When you save enough, you can upgrade the restaurant into a restaurant. You will be the owner, and I will only contribute the money and get the dividends. How about that?"
"Okay, since you believe in me so much, how can I back down and never let you down? If it really fails, I will pay you back whatever you paid."
Yingfang was very excited about this proposal. Seeing how much she believed in herself, she immediately nodded.
"Sister Fang is so heroic, do it!"
Ye Yun picked up the wine glass, clinked it with her, and continued.
"I'd like to ask Sister Fang to take a look at that shop. I don't know much about this. By the way, help me take a look at two more shops. It's best if they are connected together. One of them is intended to be used as a ready-made clothing store."
Yingfang waved her hand and said it was no problem, and asked Xiaojing and the others to find it.
Ye Yun was surprised by her resolute behavior, and he really saw the right person.
Xiaojing and the others surprised her even more. Within half an hour, they came back with good news and Yaren.
There is a breakfast shop in Beixiang that is no longer available for rent. It is close to the center of the town and has a lot of people, so it is suitable for opening a restaurant.
Coincidentally, the other two shops were conjoined selling shops that Ye Yun had inquired about before but did not buy because they were too expensive.
"We plan to buy three shops together to make them cheaper. The two shops together are more expensive than one thousand three hundred taels."
Sister Fang frowned and was very dissatisfied with the price. Two shops cost 1,300 taels, and three shops cost 1,800 taels. It was not cost-effective.
Yaren rolled his eyes and said in embarrassment that it was not easy for them either, saying how big the two shops were and how well laid out they were.
"Yaren, don't try to fool us. When we don't know that someone died in this shop, the bookstore owner still refuses to leave."
Xiaojing snorted coldly, glaring at Yato with disdain.
"As long as we don't mind the bad luck and trouble there, you knock on our bamboo poles and get a thousand taels for three shops. You can sell it or not. If you drag it down, it will only get worse."
Ye Yun and others were speechless and watched Sister Fang bargaining with Xiaojing and Yaren.
Finally, they settled on a price of 1,200 taels for the three shops, but the bookstore owner asked them to settle the matter themselves.
"Xiao Jing has a good tongue and a quick mind. He is a shopkeeper's material."
Ye Yun gave a thumbs up in praise. He had more things to do next.
"Sister Fang, go and take a look at the restaurant. We'll go to the bookstore to see what's going on, and then just wait and see."
