After arriving at the workshop, everyone busied themselves efficiently under Chu Qingzhi’s arrangement.

Everyone felt that no matter what it was, as long as it was handled by Chu Qingzhi, it would be especially easy.

After the egg tarts were made, they were packed four in a box, wrapped in wax paper, and stored in the warehouse of the bread workshop to be delivered to various merchants the next day.

Previously, merchants would come to pick up the goods themselves, but Chu Qingzhi felt it was inconvenient for management and adjusted the process to deliver goods instead.

This not only saved a lot of costs but also provided opportunities for the poorer families in the village to earn moneyThɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

In his room, Tang Jinghong neatly stored the clothes Chu Qingzhi gave him in his wardrobe, his face lit up with a smile the entire time.

After doing this, he called Wen Shaoyuan over. “I’ve already told the village chief. Now, you’re allowed to build a house in the village. Pick a place. 1’11 tell An Shanwu to help you build it immediately.”

Wen Shaoyuan had already made his choice. “General, 1 want to build it next to your house.”

He no longer had any family. Now the general was the closest person to him. Almost without thinking, he decided to build the house next to his.

Tang Jinghong asked gently, “Are you certain?”

Wen Shaoyuan nodded.

Tang Jinghong said, “I’ll tell An Shanwu tomorrow. By the way, what kind of a house do you want to build?”

Wen Shaoyuan said, “I want to build a bungalow like yours, but it doesn’t have to be as big. Just enough for four or five people to live in will do.”

Tang Jinghong smiled. “Alright.”

Wen Shaoyuan took out a thousand-tael banknote from his pocket and handed it to Tang Jinghong. “General, when the house is built, ask him to help me decorate it. I don’t have time to handle this myself.”

Hearing this, Tang Jinghong thought for a moment and said, “I’ll give you a break during this period of time. You can inspect the construction and innovation yourself. How about that?”

Wen Shaoyuan’s eyes lit up. “Thank you, General.”

Tang Jinghong pointed at the stool. “Take a seat. Let’s have a chat.”

Wen Shaoyuan agreed readily. “Okay.”

Tang Jinghong went to bring in a jar of wine and poured a bowl for both of them.

Picking up the bowl, the two clinked it and drank it in one gulp.

Wen Shaoyuan had not drunk for a long time. He thought for a moment and said, “General, if you have something to say, just say it.”

Just as Tang Jinghong was about to speak, there was suddenly a knock on the door. Wen Shaoyuan almost instinctively drew his sword to defend himself.

Then, Third Master Lu’s voice sounded. “1 heard that you were drinking. Do you mind having one more person?”

Wen Shaoyuan put away his sword and sat back down.

Tang Jinghong smiled and said, “Come in.”

Third Master Lu pushed the door open and entered. He knew of Wen Shaoyuan’s presence. After entering, he sat down beside Tang Jinghong and poured himself a glass of wine.

Tang Jinghong ignored Third Master Lu and looked at Wen Shaoyuan. “What do you think of the girl 1 introduced to you previously?”

Third Master Lu’s ears pricked up. Since when did Tang Jinghong become a matchmaker?

Wen Shaoyuan lowered his head slightly. “She is very good.”

Tang Jinghong was relieved. “If Qingzhi asked me, should I tell her like this?”

Wen Shaoyuan nodded shyly. “Ok.”

Third Master Lu could no longer remain calm. He looked at the two of them and asked anxiously, “What’s going on?”

Tang Jinghong stopped Third Master Lu from gossiping. “Drink your wine. This has nothing to do with you.”

Third Master Lu put down the wine bowl and said accusingly, “No, why have you never introduced a girl to me?”

Tang Jinghong raised his eyebrows and said, “Third Master Lu, you can have any girl you want. Do you need me to introduce one?”

“I…” Third Master Lu choked. “Don’t you know what kind of girls I have around me?” They were either scheming or had high statuses. In short, none of them made him want to marry them.

Tang Jinghong said, “I wasn’t the matchmaker, but Qingzhi. Besides, didn’t you say you don’t want a woman?”

Third Master Lu choked on the wine, not knowing what to say.

“I am a normal man!” Third Master Lu said with a hint of implication. In fact, he was also afraid to marry. In their dark, murderous lives, if a wife wasn’t strong enough, she might be kidnapped within a month for revenge!

Tang Jinghong hinted, “Isn’t the lady already brought before you?”

Third Master Lu was confused.

Wen Shaoyuan, with his head down, smiled slightly. This was a typical case of being too close to see clearly.

Third Master Lu, looking at Tang Jinghong, still didn’t understand. “Jinghong, what do you mean?”

Tang Jinghong poured drinks for the three, “Think about it yourself.”

Third Master Lu’s gaze shifted to the wine bowl. The crystal clear white wine was rich and fragrant. It reflected the light on the table and actually felt a little sparkling. “If I could figure it out, I wouldn’t ask you.”

“Drink.” Tang Jinghong and Wen Shaoyuan drank on their own, ignoring Third Master Lu.

Third Master Lu looked at the two of them with a look that said, “You guys are really mean.” He snatched Tang Jinghong’s wine bowl and drank it himself. Suddenly, something dawned on him and he understood what Tang Jinghong meant.

He turned to look at Tang Jinghong in a daze. “Don’t tell me you’re talking about Wu Yaqing?”

“That’s her.” Tang Jinghong took the bowl and poured wine. “There’s no need to be so surprised, right?”

Third Master Lu shook his head and denied it. “She’s too innocent and too weak. She’s suitable to be raised in the house as a delicate flower. She’s not suitable for me.”

Tang Jinghong smiled. With Wu Yaqing’s family background, if they got together, unless they became enemies with the emperor court, no one would dare to touch them. “Then what kind of girl is suitable for you?”

Third Master Lu said very directly, “At least someone like Miss Chu, who is skilled in martial arts and can protect herself.”

Tang Jinghong casually asked, “Then what do you think of Miss Ge?”

Third Master Lu said, “She’s too cold, and I’m about the same. We are not compatible. If we’re together, I’m afraid we won’t even speak a word to each other in a day.”

Tang Jinghong said, “Have you ever seen a lady with high martial arts skills who is as lively as Wu Yaqing?”

Mastering martial arts is a hard and painful process. To reach a high level, one must endure much more suffering than ordinary people, making such individuals tough and mature, unlike the naive Wu Yaqing.

In the end, you can’t have it all!

Third Master Lu was at a loss for words, “Then…” After a while, “Never mind,

I’ll just remain a lone bachelor!”

Tang Jinghong joked, “Giving up just like that?”

Third Master Lu looked helplessly at Tang Jinghong, “I’ll think about it after I’ve settled my grudges. By the way, I came here to talk about this matter. I plan to leave tomorrow.”

“I won’t keep you.” Tang Jinghong patted Third Master Lu’s shoulder, “If you need anything, just send a letter, and I’ll help with all my might.”

Third Master Lu smiled. “Good brother.”

The three men continued drinking until the latter half of the night before going to bed..
