Chapter 477: Chapter 477: Update on Dim Sum Shop (3)_1

After brushing teeth and washing face, Huan Qiu brought another cup of hot water for Cai Wei, assisting her to take the pill medicine Nangong Yi gave her before quietly exiting the room.

Today was the day Nangong Yi was leaving the capital. Cai Wei wanted to see him off, but upon considering the potential inconveniences, she dismissed the idea. Instead, she went to the kitchen to bake a few egg tarts, sandwiches and dim sum, packed them in a food box and sent them to him through Huan Qiu.

After Huan Qiu left, Cai Wei went to the restaurant with her dad after having breakfast with him and her grandmother.

By now the restaurant was on a regular operation schedule and everything was in order, requiring less worry.

Upon Cai Wei’s arrival, Zhao Yun and Chun Liu were selling dim sum at the counter.

The dim sum had been delivered by Zhang Biaotou early in the morning and was still warm. The shape and size was identical to what she used to make, and after tasting a piece, she found that the flavor was also the same.

Cai Wei was very pleased, it seemed that the family of Zhang Biaotou have indeed not disappointed her.

"Miss, although we are now making more dim sum than before, it always sells out before noon. You have no idea, our dim sum is now the most famous in the entire capital! Even wealthy people living in the suburbs rush to our shop to queue early in the morning," Chun Liu chatted while busy working.

A customer griped, "Your shop really, since your dim sum is so popular, why not make more? Last time, I got up late and ended up empty-handed, and was scolded terribly by my old master."

"Yeah, wouldn’t it be nice if we didn’t have to queue and could buy it anytime we came here?"

Another customer also complained.

Cai Wei laughed and said, "Everyone need not be impatient, we are looking for a suitable shop. Once we find it, we will open a dessert shop where you can get your favorite dim sum at any time. Plus, we will be introducing several new types of dim sum!"

"That would be great, then we wouldn’t have to get up early to queue every day."

"Yeah, one hour standing in line is really unbearable!"

"With new varieties of dim sum, that’s just terrific, we can once again have a feast!"

The crowd was passionately discussing.

Actually, Cai Wei had long planned to open a dim sum shop, but it was delayed because she had been busy entering the palace and learning to dance. Now that the matter was over, it was naturally time to start planning for the new shop.

She then went to the kitchen to have a look. Inside, everything was in good order. Auntie Liu was leading a few shopkeepers sent by Cao Jin to skewer meat. Zhu’er and another shopkeeper were cutting meat, Zhang Bo and Auntie Zhang were wrapping ground dumplings and hun dun, and two other shopkeepers were washing and picking vegetables.

With everything at the restaurant in good order, Cai Wei confidently exited to stroll on the street. As she walked, she kept an eye out for any shop that was up for sale.

After walking for a while, she noticed a "For Sale" sign hanging outside a fabric shop.

Cai Wei was overjoyed. The location was bustling and prosperous, and not far from their restaurant. If they could open a shop here, the two stores could complement each other, which was a perfect opportunity even if you were to light a lantern.

Cai Wei walked inside, looked around to see the fabric shop - it was spacious and bright, with an impressive shopfront. She wondered why they wanted to sell it?

"Miss, do you want to buy cloth?"

A young shopkeeper greeted Cai Wei enthusiastically.

Cai Wei casually said, "Go call your shopkeeper for me. I have something to discuss with him."

The shopkeeper, seeing Cai Wei’s gorgeous attire and noble aura, did not dare to slack off. Upon her request, he hastily went to get the shopkeeper.
