Chapter 108: Chapter 100: The Evergreen Commerce Association’s Trump Card

“Alright, then I’ll start eating, sir.”

After saying that, Zhang Fuguang picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat and cabbage, and put them together into his mouth.

The recipe for this boiled meat slices was naturally taught by Li Changqing to the Yan family’s chef. Originally, there was no such dish in Shiyan Studio, but if Zhang Fuguang found it suitable for the taste of the Great Yuan Dynasty, it could entirely be introduced.

“It’s really delicious!”

A look of surprise suddenly emerged on Zhang Fuguang’s face.

It was the first time Li Changqing saw any expression on Zhang Fuguang’s face.

Clearly, Zhang Fuguang truly liked this dish.

The meat was tender and spicy, paired with the sweet crispness of the cabbage, creating a great harmony of flavors.

Upon entering the mouth, it even carried a slight warmth.

Having grown accustomed to eating chilies, Zhang Fuguang felt a sense of belonging to the Great Yuan Dynasty upon tasting this dish.

Zhang Fuguang picked up another piece and ate it, the taste deeply touched his heart, almost infiltrating his bones.

It was much tastier than the plain roasted meat of the Great Yuan Dynasty.

There were stir-fried dishes in the restaurants of the Great Yuan Dynasty, but very few, given the cold weather, most people opted for quicker ways to eat food.

Either grilled or boiled, it was generally hard to prepare such a complex dish.

Who would want to wait for such a troublesome dish to be served when starving in the cold?

The natural choice was to eat whatever food was ready quickly.

“Do you think it suits the taste of the Great Yuan Dynasty?” Li Changqing asked with a smile.

“Yes, I think everyone would like it; it’s tastier than our Great Yuan Dynasty’s cuisine,” Zhang Fuguang nodded and replied.

Beside them, Zhang Siyao was also curious and picked up a piece to eat.

Although Zhang Siyao was only five, being a native of the Great Yuan Dynasty, she had a certain tolerance for spice.

As she ate it, her eyes lit up, feeling that it was indeed very delicious.

Better than any dish she had tasted before.

She really liked it.

“Are you planning to do business in my Great Yuan Dynasty?” Zhang Fuguang asked curiously.

“I have such thoughts,” Li Changqing admitted without hiding.

Zhang Fuguang nodded but said nothing more.

He didn’t understand business matters.

As long as he cleaned the courtyard every day, that was enough.

At night, Li Changqing returned to his room.

The other courtyard was tidied up, covered with soft mats and quilts, and Zhang Siyao had fallen asleep.

For so many days, five-year-old Zhang Siyao had been sleeping outdoors, on haystacks, leaves, and in caves with her father, hard and cold.

Where had she ever slept so comfortably?

So, as soon as she laid down, the sound of her even breathing was heard and her expression became very peaceful.

Seeing his daughter’s expression, Zhang Fuguang’s stiff face softened with warmth.

After coaxing his daughter to sleep, Zhang Fuguang went out and tidied up the courtyard again, then took some meat bones to feed Ah Fei.

Ah Fei was naturally friendly and had no resistance towards the man feeding him, though it was odd for a Painting Soul to like eating meat bones, even Li Changqing found it astonishing.

Is the Golden Silk Linlang Beast really treating itself like a dog?

Once everything was tidied up, he also went to sleep.

Li Changqing was always using Divine Soul to observe this father and daughter, and seeing nothing suspicious, finally he entered the dreamland.

The next morning, when Li Changqing woke up, Zhang Fuguang was already cleaning the courtyard.

“Sir, someone came to see you this morning, but since you were still asleep, I asked them to wait in the side hall,” Zhang Fuguang approached and said.

“Understood.”

When Li Changqing went over to take a look, he found that the visitors were Bai Jingfei and Zhao Yiqiu.

Upon seeing Li Changqing arrive, the two hurriedly stood up respectfully, “Mr. Changqing.”

Li Changqing preferred this form of address and didn’t like being called a predecessor or anything else.

“Please, sit.”

He invited the two to sit down.

Bai Jingfei then said, “Mr. Changqing, we are now fully prepared. The shop of Evergreen Commerce Association over in Dao Mark City has been decorated and everything is ready. Additionally, as per your instructions, everyone is ready in Dao Mark City.”

Zhao Yiqiu promptly reported, “I wonder when you plan to have Evergreen Commerce Association open for business, sir?”

“Why wait any longer? Since everything is ready, it can open as soon as possible.” Li Changqing disliked dragging things out, and since everything was prepared, they should go ahead.

“Good!”

The two immediately responded.

Not just them, all the large and small families in Changting Town were eagerly awaiting the opening of Evergreen Commerce Association.

After all, they had invested a large sum of money into this.

Moreover, nearly all manpower in Changting Town had been drained away.

Evergreen Commerce Association had employed a large amount of labor, causing industrial operations in Changting Town to start recruiting workers.

As for the president of Evergreen Commerce Association in Dao Mark City, Yan Botao was appointed.

Zhao Yiqiu and Bai Jingfei served as vice-presidents.

The Chief Shopkeeper of the commerce association was also from the Yan family, a senior from the family, along with other family members serving within the association.

For now, all that remained was the opening of the association.

Since Li Changqing gave the word, the commerce association went straight for the opening!

So, on the following day, Dao Mark City witnessed a very lively scene.

A large-scale commerce association opened for business.

This attracted the attention of the entire Dao Mark City.
