The next day, when I came down from the study room, I saw Zhang Debiao and two warriors waiting from afar. When he saw me, he waved desperately and waited for me to go over. He said in a low voice,"Brother, I've found a shop." "What shop?" I asked.”"How could you forget that you asked me to find a restaurant and casino?" Zhang Debiao asked in surprise.”I suddenly remembered that I wanted him to help me find a shop to build a tavern and also pay for him to open a casino. "Let's go, show me around," he hurriedly said.
When we left the palace, there were already five or six warriors waiting by the roadside. Zhang Debiao said,"These brothers are willing to follow us out to work. There are also more than twenty brothers who don't want to stay in the palace.”I said happily,"That's great. There's strength in numbers. We must find a way to make money for our brothers."”All the warriors bowed to me. I waved my hand and said,"There's no need to be so polite. We'll be brothers in the future.”Everyone cheered.
Zhang De Biao and I were surrounded by a group of warriors, and it was very impressive. Not long after, we arrived in front of a three-story building. Zhang De Biao said,"This is it." He pointed at the tall building and said," This shop is a tavern for our brothers. The small shop across the street is a casino for our brothers.”I glanced at the small shop opposite and asked curiously,"How can such a small shop run a casino?”Zhang Debiao smiled." Don't look down on the small shop front. There's a huge courtyard at the back with dozens of rooms. It's perfect for a casino."”I looked around. This street should be considered a commercial street. There were endless streams of people and cars on the road. There were shops on both sides of the street. I couldn't help but ask,"How could they be willing to give us two such good shops?”Zhang Debiao and the warriors all laughed. Zhang Debiao said,"Our brothers have found many shops. These two are suitable and close to each other. The shop owners are all from other places who came to the capital to do business and have no background. We talked to their boss a few times, but they weren't willing at first. So, dozens of us brothers went to their shop every day to practice. In the end, they still obediently handed over the shop.”
"Guess how much these two shops cost?" he asked mysteriously.”When I heard this, I knew that this kid had scared him quite a bit. It definitely wouldn't be expensive. I deliberately said,"I'm afraid it won't be cheap." Zhang Debiao was full of pride. He stretched out a finger and said,"Seven thousand taels, the two clans have a total of seven thousand taels!”I was shocked. These two big shops only cost 7,000 taels. Seeing this silly boy stretch out his finger, I thought it would cost at least 10,000 taels. Isn't this like picking up something for free? Seeing my surprised expression, Zhang Debiao couldn't control himself anymore. He laughed wildly and said,"How is it? Brother is good at doing things, right?”I hurriedly said," You're too amazing. You're really something. When are you going to trade? Don't make any mistakes."”"It depends on you. Of course, the faster the better."”I took out all the banknotes in my pocket, about fifteen thousand taels, and handed them to Zhang Debiao."In that case, we will buy the shop today. With the extra silver, find someone to properly renovate the shop, especially the tavern.”Zhang Debiao patted his chest and said," Brother, don't worry. We'll clean it up according to the style of the Wangye's family. I guarantee that it'll be the only one in the capital, and we won't spend too much money."”I knew that he was going to cheat again, so I said,"You still have to spend the money that you should spend. If it's not enough, just ask me for it.”"I'm working in the palace, so it's not convenient for me to come forward. I'll leave everything to you, big brother."”
After bidding farewell to Zhang Debiao and the others, I returned to the palace. Now that the shop has been established, it's time to capture the imperial chef. When they arrived at the imperial kitchen, a young eunuch had already reported to Li Fugui. Li Fugui led a few eunuchs who were in charge of matters and ran over with a bow."Eunuch Gui, good luck." He rolled his eyes to look at my expression and carefully asked,"Eunuch Gui, I wonder if the dishes cooked by the chefs a few days ago are to your taste?”I snorted and didn't comment. I looked at everyone and said,"Which batch is on duty today?”"Replying to Eunuch Gong, the chefs on duty today are from another batch. The chefs from that day will be on duty tomorrow."”I thought for a moment and said," Today's chefs will still follow the old rules. Send the dishes to me at the second watch. The chefs who have already cooked the day before yesterday don't have to be on duty tomorrow. Change to the imperial chefs who didn't participate in the assessment to cook." After all the chefs have cooked, I will deal with them together.”Li Fugui repeatedly agreed. After I finished speaking, he said with a troubled expression," This servant will definitely do as Eunuch Wang says, but…yesterday, a palace maid came from the Empress Dowager's place and said that the Empress Dowager has not been feeling well recently. She wants to come to our imperial kitchen every day to supervise the meals prepared for the Empress Dowager. I'm worried that our examination will affect the energy of the chefs. If the palace maid goes back and complains, I'm afraid…"
I was startled and was about to ask when I heard a woman's voice from behind."Call the person in charge of your imperial kitchen over.”The voice was very familiar. I turned around and my vision blurred. The person who came was actually Miss Yu Qing, who was locked up by the Empress Dowager.
"Sister Qing!" I exclaimed. When Yu Qing saw me, her face immediately turned red. She suddenly turned her body to the side, lowered her head, and used both hands to twist a handkerchief. Li Fugui nagged in a low voice at the side," Yesterday, it was this Miss Qing who came to our place and insisted on meeting Eunuch. She said that she wanted to discuss the Empress Dowager's meals with Eunuch. We didn't dare to be negligent, but we couldn't find Eunuch anywhere. This Miss Qing even got angry at us."”I ignored him and walked straight to Yu Qing."Sister Qing, why are you here?"
Yu Qing looked at me and blinked. She raised her head and said,"Why can't I come? The Empress Dowager asked me to keep an eye on your imperial kitchen so that you won't slack off while cooking for her.”Li Fugui said from the side," What are you saying? How would we dare to neglect the Empress Dowager's meal? Miss Qing, you are a magnanimous person. You must not say anything to the Empress Dowager."”Yu Qing glanced at him and said,"What I say to the Empress Dowager is none of your business."”"Xiao Guizi, the Empress Dowager has ordered me to study the Empress Dowager's recent meals with you. Come with me."”I responded and said to Li Fugui,"Go do your work. Remember to bring the dishes to my table before two o'clock.”Li Fugui replied,"This servant will definitely satisfy you."”He pointed at Yu Qing and whispered to me,"This grandma is hard to serve, you have to be careful.”I smiled and followed Yu Qing out.
Yu Qing didn't say anything and walked in front quickly. I couldn't keep up. I jogged all the way, but I realized that the direction I was walking in was the direction where I lived. I muttered in my heart. Not long after, Yu Qing brought me to my residence. She stood by the door with her head lowered and did not say a word.
I took out the copper key and opened the door. I smiled at her and said,"Come in." Yu Qing's face was flushed red as she covered her mouth with a handkerchief. She giggled and said,"I don't dare to enter your little lecher's house.”

Li Fugui laughed maniacally." Even though he didn't manage to enter Sanjiang, our father-in-law still managed to make it onto the new novel rankings on the front page. From today onwards, this joke will continue to coax everyone into throwing votes." Our father-in-law said that if not for the full support of all the masters, there would not be today. He even specially instructed me to bow to you.”
