Chapter 331: Zhou Kai Returns
Time flows like a river, and the scenes of a month quietly pass between ones fingers.
During this period, aside from his regular daily cultivation, Qin Feng devoted himself to practicing the Three Thousand Qi Observation Technique, and thinking about how to fulfill the promises he made in the past.
Inside the Moonlit Pavilion Pavilion, Manager Peng had just returned from Qiyuan City and was reporting on the operation of the branch.
Excitement filled his face, Young Master, although there are only three branches in Qiyuan City, the monthly profits are enough to rival one-fifth of the monthly profits of Jinyang City. The biggest chunk of profits comes from the third-floor restaurant specially set up for esteemed guests.
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow, feeling impressed. Indeed, Qiyuan City, being an old Heavenly City, had many wealthy patrons.
Looking at the hefty money box piled in the room, Qin Feng couldnt help but think of the white-robed figure disguised as a man.
The profits from the Moonlit Pavilion Pavilion had to be shared with that person.
I wonder where she is at this moment. Could it be Yulin City? After all, she is the young master of the Gathering Treasures Pavilion in Yulin City. Qin Feng muttered to himself.
It wasnt that he wanted to give away the share; after all, what merchant is eager to give away money for free? Its just that, seeing the great success of the Qiyuan City branch, he wanted to spread the operating model of the Moonlit Pavilion Pavilion throughout the entire Great Qian Dynasty, similar to the Gathering Treasures Pavilion.
To achieve this, experience and connections were indispensable.
The young master of the Gathering Treasures Pavilion, who disguised herself as a man, could provide significant help in this regard.
However, Yulin City was too far from Jinyang City, and he couldnt confirm if that person was in Yulin City at the moment. So, this idea remained inactive.
Manager Peng continued enthusiastically, The best decision Ive made in my life is coming to the Moonlit Pavilion Pavilion and following you, Young Master. Its just a pity that Jinyang City is too small, and you, Young Master, cant fully unleash your capabilities. If you were to enter the Imperial Capital Heavenly City, you would undoubtedly make a significant impact!
Manager Peng firmly believed in this.
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow, and Manager Pengs words reminded him of the sporadic scenes he saw while practicing Star Observation.
Since his father moved the family from Imperial City to Jinyang City, he hadnt returned to the capital. It had been more than ten years in the blink of an eye. He wondered when he would return to Imperial City.
At these words, Qin Fengs heart skipped a beat, urgently signaling with his eyes, but Si Zheng, apparently nursing a long-standing grievance against Chief Zhou, had opened the floodgates and couldnt shut them again.
Chief Zhou is good in everything, except that hes too serious. He meticulously reads every single document; when will this work be finished? Moreover, he always has that solemn expression. People who dont know him might think he has no sense of humor.
Ive never seen someone as petty as him.
Seeing Chief Zhous face turning darker, Qin Feng silently lowered his head, not wanting to get involved anymore.
After about half an incense sticks worth of time passed, Si Zheng, done venting, breathed out a sigh. Having voiced his thoughts after the tedious task of reviewing documents, he felt considerably more relaxed.
After finishing the tea, he looked at Qin Feng and asked, Why do you look like that?
Qin Feng didnt answer, and just showed a bit of sympathy.
Feeling something amiss, Si Zheng hurriedly turned around, only to see Chief Zhous face as dark as the bottom of a burnt pot.
Chief Zhou, when did you come back? Si Zheng stammered.
At the moment when you were saying that I was immersed in that gentle land and couldnt extricate myself from it. Zhou Kai, expressionless, walked past Si Zheng, sat on the desk, and glanced at the piles of documents.
It has only been just over a month, and there are so many official documents left. It seems that I was too kind to you in the past.
At these words, Si Zheng staggered, almost losing his balance.
I have something to discuss with Lord Si. Qin Feng, you can go back for today. It wont be long before the imperial edict from the Emperor will reach the Qin residence.
Qin Feng originally wanted to stay a little longer and watch the excitement. Hearing this, he immediately showed a surprised look.
Imperial edict? Chief Zhou, what imperial edict?
You will know later.
