I secured the courtyard across from the shop; it can accommodate two stores. Initially, I wanted to acquire a few more courtyards, but my master pointed out last night that our plans might be overly idealistic.
Anyou Town can thrive, and so can Cha Dong. Both are fleeting moments, destined to return to commerce; we just need to remember and enjoy their prime.
The Cha Dong Plan was meticulously crafted by Shi Tian and Li Ziyu. At first, I thought it was a masterpiece, but after Yi Laotou's reminder, it felt more like a fireworks display.
Last night, Shi Tian returned in an unusual state. In front of Yun Wan'er and September Eleven, Li Ziyu couldn't find the words to speak. Now that Shi Tian has expressed her feelings, even though she hasn't elaborated yet, it's enough for now.
Cha Dong is beautiful, but for her now, it's just an ancient town—hardly different from Lijiang or Dali's Phoenix or Wu Town. Its significance in her heart pales compared to Anyou Town.
You got another courtyard? What kind of dishes are you planning to make? Hearing that Shi Tian had secured another courtyard, Li Ziyu's big eyes sparkled with excitement.
Fleeting moments are just fleeting moments; returning to commerce is still profitable. If you want to play at being a small-time romantic, how can you do it without money? Cooking Essentials is the melody!
Li Ziyu's comment shattered the youthful atmosphere; is this really Li Ziyu? Where's the youthful spirit? After mingling with Yun Wan'er for a few days, she seems a bit capitalist now!
Hot pot! It has to be hot pot! The ice pops from the Northeast are selling well; Sanya's hot pot must be great too! I've got the recipe for the broth! With that said, Shi Tian stood up and began scribbling down the hot pot broth recipe she got from Yi Laotou last night.
She wrote it down on a piece of paper and pushed it toward Li Ziyu. Don’t let yourself miss out on opportunities; if you do, make sure to lock Yi Laotou in the kitchen and let him fry up five pounds of chili peppers for a change!
Hot pot? Ah! Wan Er Jie mentioned wanting hot pot the other day! How about we cook a pot tonight to try it out? Fang Zi chimed in with a smile.
No way! You all can cook; I'm not doing it! Just thinking about being overwhelmed by chili peppers made Shi Tian shiver.
As soon as she finished speaking, her phone rang—it was Shui Bi Zhang calling at the most inconvenient time!
What’s up, Lao Shui? Shi Tian answered with a frown, clearly annoyed. Her tone wasn’t very friendly!
It’s not easy to have some alone time with Li Ziyu, and here you are calling!
Tian Ge, I need seven boat rods with reels. I’ll transfer the money to you later! Shui Bi Zhang said. What’s wrong, Tian Ge? You don’t sound very cheerful! Who upset you?
Seven boat rods with reels—that’s a big deal!
Sigh! Don’t mention it; I caught a Wang Ba recently and raised it only for it to escape! I’ve been searching for it all day without luck!
Seven rods, right? I’ll head over to your shop now; we can talk there. Just give me ten minutes! I’ll treat you to drinks tonight! As soon as Shi Tian heard about the seven rods, her tone became friendly again, and Lao Shui immediately turned into Shui Ge.
Alright! When will the rods be ready? Can they be ready before the New Year? I want to take them out to sea for some fun!
Don’t worry; within three days at most—you’ll see the rods in three days!
With such a large business deal, a million coming in, and adding another hundred thousand of his own, he could finally buy a courtyard!
Even though the Cha Dong Plan had encountered some setbacks, it did not dampen his enthusiasm for purchasing the courtyard. Once his shop was up and running, he would surely gain a good reputation. He didn't want the landlord constantly reminding him about rent increases.
After hanging up the phone, he rushed to the shop with Li Ziyu. Shui Bi Zhang was already there, dragging Shui Laoban along, waiting for him.
Shui Laoban was reluctant to come but had no choice but to follow since Shui Bi Zhang insisted.
"Shui Laoban! It's been a while! What brings you here today?" Shi Tian greeted with a smile as he entered.
Shui Bi Zhang wanted to buy a rod and insisted on bringing Shui Laoban along to prove that he was spending his money wisely.
The price of the rod had been discussed between Shui Bi Zhang and Shi Tian. The rod cost thirty thousand, the line ten thousand, and the wheel one hundred thousand. Although Shui Laoban was paying, they had spent so much time fishing together that they managed to get a two-thousand discount on the wheel. That was acceptable!
"How many casts have you made?" Shi Tian asked. "Let's settle on the rod first, then we can fish for a while. Tonight I’ll treat you to dinner at Old Zhang's place for some crayfish; I've already talked to him about it!"
"By the way, let’s call Old Zhang over to fish for a bit. Ever since he opened that Little Lobster Shop, he hasn’t fished at all! If he doesn’t come out soon, he might lose his fishing license!" Shui Laoban chuckled as he arranged for the financial transfer back to the company.
Mentioning Old Zhang made Shi Tian sigh as well.
He had traded his courtyard for an apartment for his son, using years of savings to buy a small property and even opened a shop; Old Zhang had really emptied his pockets! Otherwise, he wouldn’t be working so hard!
Now that the shop was profitable, Old Zhang felt somewhat relieved. If things continued like this for another year of hard work, he could return to a comfortable life!
