Just as Qin Wuya was thinking this, the door to the room to the side room was gently opened by a person. It was Bai Qingnian.

Qin Wuya slightly raised her head and saw the smile on Bai Qingnian's face. It was obvious that she was not angry because she and Manager Wu had accidentally peeked at him.

However, Qin Wuya guessed that this smile was probably related to Wang Liu calling him "Madam" just now.

Indeed, before waiting for Manager Wu's greetings, Bai Qingnian had already said: "Dong Zi, you did not tell me that Shopkeeper Qin is actually Chao Chung Hall's new wife."

After he understood what Bai Qingnian meant, he looked at Qin Wuya helplessly. Seeing that Qin Wuya only smiled without saying a word, she then said awkwardly to Bai Qingnian: Uncle Nian, I have known him for a long time. When we were doing business together, she wasn't the wife of Chao Chung Hall. "

"Oh, I see."

Towards Manager Wu's anxious look, Bai Qingnian could not help but find it funny, and did not take his words to heart.

In Bai Qingnian's opinion, whether it was someone he had met before or someone he had become familiar with after, as long as Chao Chung Hall and the Guest Home Resturant had business dealings with each other, or if the Guest Home Resturant's business dealings with the Evil Buddha known as the Chao Chung Hall, it would be enough.

These past few years, Bai Qingnian had interacted a lot with the Qing Gang due to matters regarding the business of the Hundred Palaces. Because of this, he had a 40-50% impression of the Chao Chung Hall, who was ranked third in strength within the Thirteenth Hall of the Qing Gang.

It was a pity that his relationship with the Qing Gang was not deep, and the hall masters and elders that he was familiar with were not members of the Chao Chung Hall, thus, he did not have any opportunities to meet them.

When he thought of all these, Bai Qingnian couldn't help but think of the letter that person brought to him before he left the Cloud Prefecture.

There were no special words on the letter, but the seal was covered with red wax. Even if Bai Qingnian had some decency in the Bai Clan, he could not ask about Master's things in private.

But what exactly was written inside?

Although the Bai Clan was involved in business on the surface, anyone who walked on the water path would have to pass through the Cloud Prefecture on the Southern Willow River.

Liu Jiang was the foundation of Qing Gang, therefore, only Qing Gang had the authority to govern Liu Jiang. Because of this, the Bai Clan had always been friendly with Qing Gang ever since they started dealing with business on the surface.

Bai Qingnian clearly knew that at least eighty percent of the silver taels were directly delivered to the main altar of the Qing Gang.

But why did he suddenly say that he wanted to become friends with the Chao Chung Hall?

The's main entrance had always been to the Liubei County, and Liubei County City was not too far away from it, but there was no water on all four sides, and most of Chao Chung Hall's businesses were trading on the streets, so they did not have much relationship with the Bai Family.

Furthermore, before he came, he heard that the head of the Chao Chung Hall had married his wife, and that her family had fallen in the Clear Water Town. For this reason, most of the brothers in the Chao Chung Hall had moved to their halls in the Clear Water Town.

When he came here, Bai Qingnian didn't feel that the people in charge of the Chao Chung Hall s were anything special. Someone who could move all the people in the hall with him to some remote places to please women, what kind of grand occasion would that be?

However, that person …

Thinking about that man's methods, Bai Qingnian became uncertain.

Wait a minute! Bai Qingnian suddenly remembered that the new wife of the Chao Chung Hall was not in front of him.

Bai Qingnian was startled, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Qin Wuya without leaving a trace, and he became stupefied with a single glance.

With this shopkeeper's appearance …

Bai Qingnian looked left and right, but he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.

Could the rumors be false?

But if it wasn't for that, why would he suddenly move all the men and horses he could use to the Clear Water Town?

The atmosphere of silence in the private room made Manager Wu feel somewhat awkward, but he couldn't understand the reason behind it. He only coughed lightly and pretended that nothing had happened.

"Uncle Nian, I remember that you loved to eat this tofu carp soup. Why don't you try it?"

With that, the Manager Wu took the bowl in front of him and scooped up half a bowl of tofu carp soup and passed it to Bai Qingnian.

Bai Qingnian gave his a lot of face. After hearing that, he took a small sip and laughed: "The taste is not bad.

"I know that you don't like the spicy taste of the ginger in Uncle Nian, so this soup specifically instructed the chef to be careful."

"No ginger. It's rare for the soup to not be fishy, it's better than the Bai Clan's cooking skills."

Bai Qingnian took the opportunity to praise his, and only his face had a modestly smiling expression from beginning to end, to the point where Qin Wuya was unable to tell whether his exaggeration was genuine or just a courtesy.

However, Manager Wu was extremely happy when he heard it, "Uncle Nian, you can try more if you like it. And this fluffy chicken wire is a new dish in the building. I also think it's good to eat it.

Qin Yatou, you try it too. I remember that you were good at cooking in the past. "

"My cooking skills are only shallow, not comparable to the master of a restaurant." Qin Wuya laughed, and according to her words, she picked up a few of her favorite dishes and savored a few of each one. She felt that the taste was indeed good, and was only slightly different from the ones she had eaten before:

"The head chef from the back has changed?"

"Master Zhang said that he wanted to stay in the south for a period of time, so I called someone over. He is the great master who came from Fengqing Restaurant in the county city." Manager Wu replied.

"Every time Master Zhang goes out, he's always in such a rush. The shopkeeper is the same, why didn't you send someone to inform me?"

Speaking of Qin Wuya going to Grand Dynasty, the first pot of gold she got was because of the help of Master Zhang. Although the agaric didn't sell it for much in the end, it truly helped Qin Wuya, for this reason, even Qin Wuya felt some respect and closeness to her elders.

"You still don't know Old Zhang's personality. He always comes out when he wants to. If he wants to go out, don't say that you didn't know beforehand. Even the head storekeeper like me couldn't figure it out beforehand." "It's all thanks to the kitchen and the two second-rate chefs waiting for us. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to open the windows to our restaurant in just three days." Manager Wu laughed bitterly.

Thinking about how Master Zhang had gone on a whim several times before, Qin Wuya was also a little helpless. This matter really couldn't be blamed on Manager Wu.

After the meal, the three of them chatted about nothing but their business.

Only, Qin Wuya could clearly feel that Bai Qingnian's attitude towards him was different from the beginning, as if she had become a bit more amiable and intimate.

'Friendly 'and' intimate 'were two people that he had never seen before, but when he used these two words, it sounded a little strange.

But what Bai Qingnian did was extremely normal, if not for the fact that Qin Wuya noticed the disdain in Bai Qingnian's expression from the very start, she would have treated him as an elder that was easy to talk to.

Qin Wuya laughed, as expected, she was still too inexperienced.

Seeing that the three of them did not intend to use their chopsticks again, the Manager Wu found a waiter waiting outside to clean up the dishes and served them some tea.

As if the tea in the bowl had left, Bai Qingnian suddenly opened his mouth: "I brought the deed that the First Lady set down. Take a look, if you feel that's appropriate, you guys can order it today?"

With that, Bai Qingnian called out to a young lad who was standing outside the door. "San-er, bring that thing over."

The 'San-er' boy took out a small barrel of leather from his waist and entered the private room respectfully to give the bucket to Bai Qingnian. Then, he silently withdrew himself.

The boy looked like he was only ten years old. He didn't say anything and didn't even raise his eyes. He seemed very well-behaved and silent.

Qin Wuya felt that it was interesting, and took the chance to take a few glances at the child the moment he turned around to leave.

Although he could not measure it with a ruler, Qin Wuya guessed that the boy's footsteps were not different from each other.

Bai Qingnian saw that Qin Wuya's gaze was focused on his own close servant boy so she could not help but laugh: "This child is the younger son of the palace guard, and because of his freedom, he was brought along by my side as a child. Don't think that his age is young, but he has learnt a whole set of martial arts, ordinary grown men cannot beat him. "It's just that they weren't very talkative and would keep quiet whenever they saw anyone. Who knows if they would greet them and make Shopkeeper Qin laugh."

It was probably not because he was bad with words, but because he knew when to say and when not to say it.

Qin Wuya gave a shallow smile, but did not point it out: "How can that be, I think that this child knows the rules."

Bai Qingnian's expression was kind, seeing that the little boy had gone out of the private room and covered the room, he went to the place inside the cow-skin pail and handed over a roll of paper to Manager Wu.

Manager Wu only looked at it a few times before a joyous expression surfaced on his face uncontrollably. However, he did not say much as he passed the paper over to Qin Wuya.

The paper used by the deed was different from the paper used for the letter sent three days ago.

The content of the deed was more or less the same as what was written in the previous letter. It only left some space at the most crucial points, obviously there was still room for negotiation.

Of course, these were not urgent matters. Qin Wuya did not mind them and only looked at the bottom left of the deed.

There were a few elegant and beautiful words written below. It was the name of the girl surnamed Ge, it was obviously the name of the First Lady of the Bai Clan, Ge Fan.

The Bai Clan's inner courtyard was managed by the First Lady's Ge Clan. The matter of the large clans' recruitment had always been separated from the outer courtyard's business, so there was nothing wrong with the name of the Bai Clan's First Lady Ge Clan.

Moreover, on the left side of the White First Lady's name was a small seal of the inner courtyard of the Bai Family. With these two points, it could mean that as long as he and the Manager Wu signed their names, the deed would be established at any time, and would not need to head towards the Cloud Prefecture like what happened with the Zhang Family.

It had to be said that a large family truly did have its own style of doing things, and it saved a lot of trouble.

However, Qin Wuya couldn't help but feel that the Bai Family First Lady's way of doing things was too straightforward and clean. Was she not afraid that someone would add a number that should not have been added to the blank space of the deed, causing the Bai Family to suffer a loss?

After all, the person who brought the deed here was the manager of the Bai Family, but it wasn't her.
