Chapter 446: Chapter 446: The Emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is

Cheng Su had brought in Dazhi, with whom she had worked several times before, for the new shop near the train station.

"Whenever President Cheng calls me, I know there’s business to take over!" Dazhi’s renovation team had grown bigger and bigger, and his presence had become far more commanding than before, truly looking the part of a small construction contractor boss.

Cheng Su poured him a cup of tea and said, "There is business indeed, but I was afraid you wouldn’t dare take it!"

"Hey, when have I, Dazhi, ever been afraid to take on business? Look, my team has grown, and there are more people relying on me for their livelihood. I’m not just willing; I have to keep finding more contracts to take on!" Dazhi took a sip of the tea and asked, "So, tell me, what does President Cheng need this time?"

Cheng Su smiled, "It’s not like that. I’ve just acquired a shop and I’m thinking of renovating it to create a fast food branch."

"Wow, you’re expanding with branches now?" Dazhi looked impressed and said, "How long has it been since Joy Soon Loy opened? Not even half a year, and you’re ready to expand? But I have to say, the taste at Joy Soon Loy is unmatched, and it’s been deservedly a big hit."

"Just a small business!" Cheng Su modestly replied.

Dazhi complimented her a few times, then asked about the location of the shop.

Cheng Su hesitated a little, but it was only for a moment before she described the situation with the shop.

Dazhi was taken aback as he listened, and choked on the tea in his throat. He coughed a few times and rushed to say, "Hey, Sister Su, you actually bought a shop where someone died?"

Coming from the countryside, he was very superstitious about death. With so many shops to buy, why would she pick one with such bad luck?

"You see, I told you wouldn’t dare take it!" Cheng Su joked.

"It’s not that I don’t dare to take it. It’s just a renovation, isn’t it? I was just worried about you..." He saw Cheng Su’s calm and indifferent look and slapped his forehead with a laugh, "Hey, what am I so worried about? You, the boss, are all calm and collected, and here I am, the outsider, getting all anxious for you. Isn’t this like the eunuch being more anxious than the emperor?"

Cheng Su chuckled, feeling a bit warmed inside, and said, "I know you mean well, but that shop is truly a rare find. As for it being auspicious or not, I don’t want to think too much about it."

"You sure have a big heart!" Dazhi gave her a thumbs up.

Cheng Su sipped her tea and proposed, "Anyway, I’ll definitely hold a ritual there at the shop. Once it’s done, if you take the job, why don’t we go together and take a look? You can give me a quote on what would be the best way to fix it up."

Dazhi nodded, then thought for a moment and added, "But you’ll have to hurry. The new year is just a month or so away, and I’ve still got a project I’m working on. It should be finished in about ten days or so. If you want to open the shop quickly, I can push my workers to speed up and get it done before the year ends, so you can open for business after the New Year!"

Cheng Su also thought this was a good idea, as it was exactly what she had in mind. To have the renovation done before the end of the year, air it out, and then be ready to open for business after.

And during this time, there were still many things to do – hiring staff, chefs, and so on.

Cheng Su and Dazhi discussed a few more details, and then he took his leave.

Qiulan came to clean up and shyly asked, "Sister Su, why hasn’t Big Brother Ning come to eat here in a few days?"

In the past, whenever Ning Ge was around, he’d either eat at Cheng Su’s household or come to the restaurant, treating it like his own dining hall.

At the mention of Ning Ge, Cheng Su’s brow furrowed slightly and she said, "Don’t talk about him. He said he was going abroad. It’s been so long without a single phone call; that man is just unreliable!"

With a downhearted "Oh," Qiulan walked away.
