When Su Chengnan's letter was delivered, Lu Chaofeng was busy dealing with the spies from the White Bear Country.
"Don't waste your energy! I won't tell you even if you kill me!"
"If you have the guts, give me a quick death!"
The other party was covered in wounds, but his mouth was still powerful.
Lu Chaofeng glanced at Wu Ming, and Wu Ming immediately picked out a piece of red-hot charcoal from the brazier, ready to torture the man to extract a confession.
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Highness has a letter from Ningguta!"
Ah Shun came in quickly from outside the door, holding the letter in his hand.
When Wu Ming heard the voice, he stopped and subconsciously looked at Lu Chaofeng.
"Give it to me." He said it briefly, but his voice was obviously not as cold as before.
"Yes!" Ah Shun gave him the letter with a smile.
Lu Chaofeng opened the envelope and read it word by word, his heart growing heavier.
The Qin family again?
Under the guise of doing business, they have people in every city. It would be fine if they were all doing legitimate business, but all the gangsters have become thugs and spies. Are they trying to rebel?
Lu Chaofeng's expression became increasingly grim, "Wu Ming!"
"My subordinate is here!"
"Take people to seal off all the Jiangnan Qin family properties in Mincheng!"
"Yes, I'll go now!" Wu Ming clasped his fists, then put down the tongs and asked, "Sir, what about this spy?"
"Give it to someone else and ask the same question."
"Okay," Wu Ming nodded, then looked at the others, signaling them to quickly take the tongs and not delay anything. He wiped his hands and left immediately.
Lu Chaofeng finished reading one page and turned to the second page.
He read ten lines at a glance, and finally his eyes fell on the end of the letter. A smile finally appeared on his cold face, just like the warm sun in winter, dispelling the haze.
She... is worried about me? Hahahaha, she really has me in her heart, Lu Chaofeng thought.
Seeing him laugh, Ah Shun couldn't help but ask, "Prince? Any good news?"
Lu Chaofeng glanced at him, but rarely refrained from cursing. "Go get some paper and pen! I'll write a reply now. Hurry up."
"Yes, I'll get it right away!" Ah Shun turned around and prepared to walk out the door.
Seeing that Lu Chaofeng had finished his instructions, the others picked up the tongs and started working, mercilessly burning the spy with the hot charcoal.
"what--"
"Are you going to say it or not?!"
Lu Chaofeng was a little annoyed by the man's screams. He frowned and said, "Ah Shun! Forget it, I'll go to the study with you."
Ah Shun stopped and said, "Yes, my Lord."
As I went out, the cold wind hit me in the face and the temperature dropped sharply.
Lu Chaofeng walked in front, his lips curled as he instructed, "The lotus cakes in Mincheng are quite good. Send someone to buy a few boxes later. Also, pack two portions each of the pearl duck and braised goose from Babaolou."
Ah Shun pursed his lips and chuckled, knowingly asking, "My Lord, we just had dinner, how can you handle so many dishes?"
Lu Chaofeng stopped and glanced back at him: "Who said I want to eat it by myself? Send it to Ningguta with the reply letter later! Don't delay on the way."
Ah Shun grinned. "Send it to Ningguta? That's great. How about I see if there are any other specials and buy them and send them over as well?"
Lu Chaofeng really thought about it for a moment: "What other characteristics does this Mincheng have?"
But just as he finished speaking, he realized that Ah Shun was teasing him. He coughed lightly and glared at him, "You kid! Are you itching for trouble?"
Ah Shun ran away with a hearty laugh, still muttering, "I dare not! I'm going to Babaolou right now to help the prince prepare a gift for Miss Su! Miss Su will definitely like it!"
Lu Chaofeng clenched his palms, and his cheeks felt inexplicably hot.
……
Ningguta, Su's residence.
Su Chengnan was standing in the cafeteria, checking the results of the decoration.
Liuzi followed her and said with a smile, "Miss, please take a look at any places that are not suitable. I will take the brothers to adjust them in a moment. The tables, chairs, benches and other things are all ready-made. The main thing is that the stove has been modified. It is more spacious than you imagined."
Su Chengnan looked around and was very satisfied with the transformation that had taken only three days.
The three rooms on the left side of the courtyard were all demolished and connected, creating a long, rectangular space. The kitchen is fully equipped with a stove, sink, and storage racks. The production area for washing, preparing, cooking, and serving vegetables is a very logical flow. Each person has a work surface, and the area can accommodate about eight people working at the same time.
The tables, chairs and benches are all long tables and long benches. Everyone is treated equally and eats from the same pot. Even the bowls and chopsticks are prepared and stored in different cabinets by group. Everyone has their own bowls and they use and wash them by themselves.
"Not bad, but are these seats enough?" Su Chengnan said, looking at Liuzi and Fu Bo.
"That's enough! I counted, and if we squeeze together, one hundred and fifty people can sit here at the same time. But we don't have much chance to eat at the same time, right, Miss?" Liuzi touched his head.
"It's hard to say. On some special days like the New Year and other holidays, the whole family naturally has to be together." Su Chengnan answered without thinking.
Uncle Fu was unhappy and asked anxiously, "Miss, are you and the masters also going to dine here? This..."
Su Chengnan said seriously, "Of course we have to come here. From now on, everyone in the Su family will eat here. Three meals a day will be served at fixed time periods. If anyone misses the meal, they can ask their team leader to reserve it. If you don't report it in advance, the cafeteria will never leave any food to avoid waste."
When Uncle Fu was a housekeeper, he rarely asked about kitchen matters. But although he understood what Su Chengnan said just now, he still couldn't imagine what kind of scene this would be.
Su Chengnan didn't give him a chance to resist and decided directly, "Let's officially open the cafeteria tonight. Second sister will be the one to appoint the chefs."
This said Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here.
There was a noisy sound outside the house.
Su Chengnan turned around and saw Su Linhua directing people to move a lot of vegetables, fruits and meat from the warehouse. It was obvious that they were going to do something big.
Su Chengnan smiled and called her, "Second sister."
Su Linhua came in bounding after hearing the sound, "Eldest sister, I'm ready to fight."
Su Chengnan took her hand and asked her to calm down: "Don't worry, let me ask you about the staff needed for the cafeteria. Have you thought about it?"
Su Linhua nodded. "Of course I've thought about it. From now on, I'll be the supervisor and instructor, hahahaha... Nianqiu is the top chef, and he comes here from time to time to gain practical experience. I'll let Sister Lin take care of the specific matters and cooking! She's the head chef, and when I'm not around, Sister Lin will be in charge. Everyone else will have their own responsibilities."
Su Chengnan had no objection, "Okay, but I have a suggestion."
