After Mo Yanzhi left, Qian Rongying looked at Zhou Lin. "Lin, what do you think about Han Tingxuan?"

"He is very different from before," Zhou Lin said while pondering. "I still remember the last time I saw him, he was just a little hooligan. I couldn't see the slightest bit of talent in him. But this time... If I hadn't confirmed that this person was really Han Tingxuan, I would've thought it was someone else."

"Really?" Qian Rongying muttered, "He is not simple."

Zhou Lin nodded and laughed bitterly. "He is great at doing business. Five hundred taels of silver. If someone claimed that he could take five hundred taels of silver from us just with a recipe, I would never believe it. I would also treat that person as a madman. Now, I believe it."

Qian Rongying smiled bitterly. "Yes. It is true. In a small town like this, it is surprising to have such a talented business. We have to investigate this Han Tingxuan. If he is really a useful talent, we might be able to recommend him to Master."

Zhou Lin got serious when he heard this. "are you serious?"

Qian Rongying nodded. "Master needs such a talent now..." Qian Rongying cupped his hands together and waved above his head as a manner to show respect to the emperor, "His majesty is a wise emperor, which is also why Master can achieve what he has now. However, even though Master wants to help, he is not a match for those old families. If not for that, he wouldn't have thought of opening a restaurant as a way to attract talents. Over the years, I have been running dozens of Restaurant of Bon Appetite, big and small, but discovered very few useful people. Today, some of Han Tingxuan's ideas made me believe that he might be someone we can use!"

Zhou Lin's eyes brightened slightly. "Is it why you agreed on the 500 taels of silver offer?"

Qian Rongying smiled silently.

Zhou Lin chuckled in a daze. "Your great vision and farsightedness is as impressive as ever. I will personally observe Han Tingxuan."

"Okay," Qian Rongying said, "I'll go to State of Yong tomorrow. I'll probably be back in half a month. I'll leave the restaurant to you."

"You can count on me."

Han Tingxuan, who had walked out of the restaurant, did not know that he was chosen as the potential talent by the two shopkeepers! In fact, there was only one person in his eyes.

That person was standing at the gate of the restaurant with a worried expression.

Mo Yanzhi wanted to go in and see what was going on a few times, but didn't as Han Tingxuan told him to wait outside. Now, he was finally relieved when he saw him come out.

Han Tingxuan walked out. "I'm fine. Sorry I've worried you."

Seeing the smile on Han Tingxuan's face, Mo Yanzhi was puzzled why he was in such a good mood, but this was not a bad thing for him. Although he is not afraid of Han Tingxuan's punches and kicks, which couldn't make any harm to him, it was always good to not be beaten. He hoped that Han Tingxuan would be in a good mood every day.

"It's good that you're fine," said Mo Yanzhi.

"I earned some money, but it's just silver bills. Let's go to the bank to exchange some silver. We don't have much food at home. Let's buy some." Han Tingxuan said.

He earned some money? Mo Yanzhi was stunned.

At this moment, Han Tingxuan handed over the silver bills to Mo Yanzhi.

Mo Yanzhi looked at the number on the silver bills and was shocked. "Where did you get so much money?"

If it wasn't for Mo Yanzhi's cold personality and the fact that he wouldn't have been shocked easily at all, it was likely that the amount of money would have made him scream. He was being incredibly surprised just by raising his voice.
