"That’s fine, five canteens, over eighty thousand students, this can rake in a lot of money, hahaha."

Ding Yue laughed heartily as he said this.

"That’s true, last year our profits were quite substantial. Even though we set the prices really low, we still made good money."

Talking about making money always excited Yuping.

Money was just a number to Ding Yue, but for Yuping, it was different.

Before Ding Yue owned the system for developing Mist City Arts and Science University, it was Yuping who solely managed the family finances, which was indisputable.

After all, in the Tianfu region of Mist City, men were generally very family-oriented, commonly dubbed as henpecked.

"Keep the money you make, Mom. Whether you want to buy a big house or a luxury car later, it’s up to you guys."

Ding Yue shrugged as he said.

Ding Yue never planned to use the money Yuping earned from managing the canteen for his expenditures at Mist City Arts and Science University.

"That won’t do, the school’s operations are quite costly, and this money can be used for the school’s development."

Yuping shook her head and said, "Why buy a big house, there are so many houses at the school to live in."

Hearing this, Ding Yue was quite moved.

His parents, like him, did not aspire or pursue luxurious cars or villas.

The school indeed had good living conditions, with many apartments that were properties of Ding Yue, enough for each parent to live in one without any issues.

Hearing Yuping wanting to use the canteen’s earnings for the school’s operating expenses, Ding Yue couldn’t really say much else.

"Alright, as long as your dad, besides helping me manage the school’s affairs, doesn’t neglect his own needs."

Ding Yue nodded, earnestly speaking to Yuping.

"Of course."

Seeing how successful her son was made Yuping incredibly happy.

Indeed.

Ever since her son founded the Mist City Arts and Science University, their lifestyle had significantly improved. Items Yuping previously wanted to buy but hesitated were now purchased without a second thought.

"Oh right, Mom, that campus theme hotpot restaurant, has it been moved here? Or is it still at the Second Canteen?"

Suddenly remembering this, Ding Yue asked.

"The hotpot restaurant has been moved here too. This place on the third floor is bigger, so we can expand the scale of the hotpot restaurant. Master Hu Jianren didn’t he bring out a lot of apprentices for your culinary arts department? So, the scale of the hotpot restaurant can be increased."

Yuping replied.

"So that’s why."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yue understood why the campus theme hotpot restaurant had also been moved.

He still vividly remembered the name of the master who prepared the hotpot base Mix, Master Hu Jianren.

Master Hu Jianren was not only the hotpot base master at the campus theme hotpot restaurant but had also been hired as a professional teacher by the food and culinary arts department of Mist City Arts and Science University.

He specialized in teaching students who loved food preparation how to make hotpot bases and also aimed to preserve the traditional methods of making old hotpot bases.

Quite a few culinary arts students liked hotpot, and Master Hu Jianren had trained a group of students, who by now had probably mastered the craft.

With more people skilled in preparing hotpot bases, the business of the campus theme hotpot restaurant could of course keep expanding.

In the future, Ding Yue also planned for the campus theme hotpot restaurant to become a franchise chain. All the hotpot base chefs would be graduates from his own Mist City Arts and Science University.

Spreading the campus theme hotpot restaurant to universities across the country, wouldn’t that be thrilling?

Of course, this depended on whether his culinary arts department could train many professional students skilled in preparing hotpot bases. But Ding Yue noticed that the students who trained under Master Hu over the years were quite numerous.

There was hope.

"Mom, in the future when Master Hu trains more students, we can start franchising the campus theme hotpot restaurant, not just within our university but also to universities all around the country, hahaha."

Ding Yue shared his vision with Yuping.

"Look at your modest ambitions."

Yuping felt that franchising a hotpot restaurant was less significant compared to improving the educational work at Mist City Arts and Science University.

Over the years, Yuping had witnessed many students who couldn’t get into better universities start a new Chapter of their university life at Mist City Arts and Science University and acquire knowledge in the majors they loved.

Gradually, Yuping felt that her son’s venture into private university education was very meaningful and truly significant, as achieving such success in private university education in Xia Country was not easy.

"My aspirations aren’t just this, I want to make Mist City Arts and Science University the coolest university in the world."

Ding Yue made no effort to hide his grand ambition.

Because people could now understand him, including his own dad and mom, who were very supportive of him properly developing and managing Mist City Arts and Science University.

"That’s fine, Mom, you go ahead, I need to head back to the office to take care of my own stuff."

After strolling through the Fifth Canteen with his mom, Zhang Yuping, and familiarizing himself with the surroundings, Ding Yue planned to return to the office.

"Do you want me to cook lunch for you?"

As Ding Yue turned to leave, his mom Zhang Yuping’s voice reached him.

"Hehehe, yes, please."

Ding Yue nodded.

Secretary Wen Ruohan really envied Principal Ding for having such a great mom, always ready to cook him a special homemade meal.

Even if the canteen’s food was delicious, it was nowhere as good as Aunt Zhang’s cooking.

Wen Ruohan had tasted Aunt Zhang’s cooking, which she had perfected to an extreme.

The taste was almost comparable to that of a national treasure-level chef, only lacking the ability to sculpt flowers from garnishes.

After leaving the Fifth Canteen.

Ding Yue and secretary Wen Ruohan arrived at the Administration Building.

As they were going upstairs, Ding Yue happened to run into An Yujia downstairs.

"Principal Ding, I was just about to come looking for you."

After seeing Principal Ding, An Yujia caught up and said.

Indeed, An Yujia had intended to talk to Principal Ding about the Chang’an Group Automotive Engineering Team, thinking that by now Principal Ding would have reached his office.

Unexpectedly, she encountered Principal Ding at the staircase.

"What’s up? Let’s go to the office to talk about it."

After a glance at An Yujia, Ding Yue proceeded upstairs with her to the principal’s office.

As soon as Ding Yue entered the office, he instinctively wanted to call out to Big White, only then remembering that he had taken Big White back to his apartment room last night.

It seemed he had forgotten to bring Big White along this morning.

"Well now."

Ding Yue muttered to himself and immediately pulled out his phone, then said to it, "Big White."

Big White was controlled through voice commands, and obviously, in its absence, Ding Yue couldn’t expect it to hear and execute a command just by speaking.

That’s where the phone came in.

Bin had specially written a program for Ding Yue, which, through the phone’s voice software, could also activate the connected Big White.

"Principal, I’m here,"

Big White’s voice came from the phone.

"Come to my office,"

Ding Yue instructed.

"Alright, Principal."

At that moment in the apartment building, Big White woke up from its sleep mode, recharged itself, then stepped out of its red metal box and began walking in small, brisk steps out of the apartment, not forgetting to close the door behind it.

Big White was now that intelligent.

It already knew the route from the apartment to the principal’s office. Even if it didn’t know the way, it could find it using the map software’s navigation.

Moreover, Big White’s level of artificial intelligence was now quite high.

Any path it had traversed with its master, Ding Yue, would be recorded by the sensors on its camera.

"Oops, I forgot to bring Big White along,"

After putting away his phone, Ding Yue awkwardly said to An Yujia and Wen Ruohan.

"Principal Ding, I came to talk about the Chang’an Group Automotive Engineering Team. Chang’an Group is very efficient, and a team of automotive engineers is coming today,"

Stepping into the office, An Yujia seriously told Principal Ding.
