Traveling through the ancient times

These days, Chushunihua occasionally took some time out of her busy schedule and went to the dessert shop to chat with Qi Muhe.

The Qi family used to run a family business. Whenever Chu Shuhua had something she couldn't figure out, she would go to ask Qi Muhe, and Qi Muhe would answer every question she asked. As the two of them came and went, they became more familiar with each other.

One day, when Chushouhua was looking at the recent accounts of the dessert shop, Qi Muhe gave her a suggestion.

She needs a lot of vegetables and meat to open a hotpot restaurant. Why not buy a farm outside the city and hire people to grow vegetables? She can buy rare vegetables from outside, but she can grow those that are in large quantities and easy to grow herself. The ones that the store can't use up can be sold. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?

After hearing this, Chushulhua was somewhat tempted, but buying a farm was not an easy matter and could not be done in a short time.

Moreover, the farm she bought could not be too small. A large farm would require a lot of silver. Now was the time when she needed money, and she could not let herself run out of money all at once. Chushunihua planned to leave a message at the pawnshop first, and then go and have a look if there was a suitable one.

"Mr. Qi, you are a natural businessman. If you do it yourself, it will definitely be better than being my assistant."

At the beginning of the year, Hua thought that what she had learned from him recently was very useful, and he could always give her some suggestions that were best for her at the moment.

"That's not necessarily true. Besides, I like the life I have now. Running my own business is not so relaxing. Look at yourself, how tired you are lately?" Qi Muhe really thinks that being a shopkeeper is pretty good. Why didn't he realize it before!

"That's right. Now I finally understand why those big bosses are so busy that they are nowhere to be seen all day long." Nian Chuhua is indeed very tired recently.

"As for you, there are too few available people, and you have to do everything by yourself. Of course it's tiring." Qi Muhe pointed out the key point again.

"I know that, but it's not easy to find reliable people. I still have to find another manager..." Chushunihua felt a headache when he thought about the manpower issue.

She has never run a business of her own. In the past, she just relied on Jiang Ruixue and Lu Mingqian to make a profit, which was not considered doing business. Qi Muhe also helped her manage this dessert shop, and she was just a hands-off boss.

Nian Chuhua looked at Qi Muhe who was calm and composed, and her eyes suddenly lit up, "Master Qi, I have a favor to ask."

Qi Muhe raised his eyes and looked at the fox-like appearance of Chu Nian, and found it a little funny, "Tell me about it."

"Do you think there are any talented people in this dessert shop? Can you pick one and help me train him?"

Qi Muhe looked at the three assistants who were busy in the store. Before, the shop was small and there was only one assistant. Later, the shop next door was sold, and Chuan-Hsuan bought both of them, so the two shops were connected directly, and the number of staff naturally increased.

It's true that these three young men were all found by him. They knew a little about writing and have been in the shop for such a long time, so he knows them well. They have good character and are hardworking. If he trains them carefully, they should be good.

Qi Muhe nodded, "That's fine. These three guys are all pretty good. You can train them together. When your business grows bigger, you can directly promote them to higher positions."

Qi Muhe's words made Chu Nian Hua overjoyed. She had thought that it would be good enough to train one, but now she had three. "Thank you so much, Master Qi."

As Chushulhua spoke, he stood up and bowed to Qi Muhe.

"Hey, hey...what are you doing? You're my boss. Are we doing this the wrong way?"

"Master Qi, when my hot pot restaurant is ready, you can help me manage it, and your apprentice can take care of this. If you don't want to run your own business, you can be my butler in the future. What do you think?"

At the beginning of the year, the painting business had not yet taken off, but the pie had already been completed.

Qi Muhe looked at the girl in front of him who was looking at him with a faint smile, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and he said in his heart, "I am willing to be your housekeeper for life."

When Chu Nianhua saw Qi Muhe staring at her for a long time without any response, she waved her hand in front of Qi Muhe's eyes and said with a pout, "Hey, what are you thinking about?

I won't force you if you don't want to. I know that young masters like you all have your own ideals, and it's only a matter of time before you leave here."

Qi Muhe came back to his senses, realized his own gaffe, and coughed awkwardly, "I didn't say I didn't want to, I don't have anywhere else to go, if not here, where else can I go, please don't give my place to others."

"Really?" Nian Chuhua was pleasantly surprised after hearing Qi Muhe's words. "Then we have a deal. You are not allowed to walk away."

"Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere." I'll be here to protect you.

Chushunihua didn't notice anything unusual about Qi Muhe. She just thought that the shopkeeper had been settled and a big thing had been accomplished, so she was smiling from ear to ear.

The two chatted for a while. It was almost evening and the shop was about to close. After packing up and closing the shop, the two waved goodbye at the intersection. Qi Muhe watched the carriage gradually go away and disappear into the night.

Turning around and walking in the opposite direction, Qi Muhe felt his heart swell up as he thought about how Chu Nianhua had looked at his smiling face just now.

After spending so much time together, Qi Muhe unknowingly developed an inappropriate affection for Nian Chuhua. He was a man who could not stand the light of day. He lived with a human skin mask on all day and had to be on guard against dangers that might pop up from anywhere. How could he dare to hope for love?

However, Chushunihua was like a little sun, smiling brightly, making him feel warm and making him want to get closer unconsciously.

He didn't dare to express his feelings to her, for he was afraid of bringing danger to her. He could only stay by her side silently to support her, help her, and see her happy. He would also feel inexplicably happy. Perhaps this was enough!

Qi Muhe returned home. This was the house arranged for him by Lu Mingqian. The maids and servants in the house were all trained to protect his safety at all times.

Qi Muhe looked at the yard and the people in it, and thought of another person, [Yes, there is also Lu Mingqian. Lu Mingqian also likes the paintings of Chuanchu, otherwise he would not have done those things for her. ]

If Lu Mingqian knew that he had such feelings for Nianchuhua, he would definitely not tolerate him...

Nian Shuhua should have been with someone like Lu Mingqian, who could openly do anything for her and protect her, unlike him, who could do nothing for her except taking care of the accounts.

Moreover, if Chuchuhua had been with him, she would have had to live a life of fear and escape, and it would have been impossible for her to be free and do what she wanted like she is now.

He had to hide carefully and not lose his composure like he did today. He had to be a good butler, give her advice and make the business bigger and stronger. Only in this way could he stay by her side forever...
