Chapter 694: Departure, News
Editor: Henyee Translations
The shopkeeper was different from the shop assistant. She had to be knowledgeable and capable. When she saw those madams and young ladies, she had to be neither servile nor overbearing.
In this huge prefectural city, Madam and Madam had conflicts. Young Miss and Young Miss disliked each other a lot. If they happened to meet in the shop, as the shopkeeper, she had to at least have the ability to mediate.
At the same time, she had to have management skills, literacy, and etiquette.
Most importantly, unlike the male shopkeepers in ordinary shops, there were too few experienced female shopkeepers. At the very least, there was none in the shops under Madam Dai’s own name.
Sigh, my head hurts!!
Gu Yundong also knew that the two of them were having a headache. After all, she had deliberately brought Su Qing over today.
She more or less understood what the criteria for workers were for Madam Dai and Nie Shuang. It was obvious that they would definitely choose someone close to them.
Even Gu Yundong herself would subconsciously choose someone she had a good relationship with.
However, although the people close to him were trustworthy, it still depended on whether they were suitable.
Gu Yundong had taken a share of this shop. If she wanted to do it, she had to do it well.
She believed that Su Qing’s trip today would be very effective.
Gu Yundong sent Su Qing to the entrance of her alley before bringing Tong Shuitao home.
When she entered, Shao Qingyuan happened to be at home. At this moment, he was sitting in the central room and standing in front of Ah Zhu, as if he was talking to him.
When Gu Yundong approached, Ah Zhu finished speaking. However, Shao Qingyuan frowned slightly.
Gu Yundong was puzzled. “What’s wrong? What happened?”
When Shao Qingyuan saw her, his expression instantly improved. He only said, “There’s something going on at the manor. I’m afraid I’ll have to go over tomorrow and will only be back in a few days.”
“Manor?”
Gu Yundong remembered that Shao Qingyuan had bought a manor not far from the Xuanhe Prefecture. Although it was not very big, the title deed was given to her.
It seemed that ever since Shao Qingyuan bought this manor, he had never gone there again.
“What happened? Is it very troublesome?”
Shao Qingyuan shook his head. “It’s not troublesome. It’s just that there are some things that I need to confirm personally. I originally wanted to bring you along to take a look when you’re done here.”
“In any case, it’s not far from the Xuanhe Prefecture. There are plenty of opportunities.”
Shao Qingyuan nodded. “I’ll leave tomorrow morning.” As he spoke, he glanced at Tong Shuitao and Ah Zhu.
Before Tong Shuitao could react, Ah Zhu cleverly pulled her out.
There was no one in the central room. Shao Qingyuan held Gu Yundong’s hand and said in a low voice, “I’ll be back in two days at most. You have a lot of things to do, but you have to take care of your health. Don’t tire yourself out.”
Gu Yundong felt her hand being wrapped by his broad and warm hand, and her entire body became warm.
She pursed her lips. “I know.” After a pause, she looked up and said seriously, “If you encounter anything troublesome, you must tell me.”
Shao Qingyuan smiled. “Yes, I’ve always listened to you.”
Gu Yundong glared at him.
The next morning, Shao Qingyuan indeed left the Xuanhe Prefecture with Ah Zhu.

Gu Yundong woke up early and did not see him. She sighed and brought Su Qing to the shop.
Today, Madam Dai would bring the chef for the kitchen. Gu Yundong had to teach them how to make pearl milk tea.
The kitchen was filled with people who had signed a death contract with Madam Dai. They would not easily leak the formula.
Gu Yundong taught them very carefully. She was really tired after a whole day.
However, when she went to Gu’s shop to patrol as usual at night, Tong Ping and Chen Jinbao, who came to deliver the goods for the second time, brought her a message.
