402 Shop Owner
Lady Yun clutched the contract in a daze, feeling as if the dust had settled.
“Mother…”
The child beside her tugged at the corner of her clothes. “We have money now. Are they the kind people you always talk about?”
“Yes.” Lady Yun kept the contract in her arms and patted it carefully. “They are the kind people that I always tell you about.”
“Boss…” She looked at Yue Jiaojiao with eyes full of gratitude, “In the future, if you have any requests, I’ll definitely not hesitate to fulfill them. This is the key to the shop, please keep it well.”
A bunch of keys were placed on the counter. Zhao Zhan leaned over to keep the keys. This thing was hard, cold, and a little heavy. Naturally, he would not let his lover take it.
“When I need you, I’ll send someone to your house to call you.”
Lady Yun quickly nodded in agreement. After packing up all her things, she brought her son home.
After she left, Zhao Zhan looked down at Yue Jiaojiao and said, “The restaurant and this place need to be redecorated. Master Sun is currently free and in Shangjing, so I’ll ask him to clean up this shop as well.”
If his lover wanted to open a shop, he would give her his full support and would never refuse.
“Jiaojiao, are you thinking of opening a pastry shop?”
Zhao Zhan had been with her for a long time and could roughly guess what she was thinking. “When we were in Wangshan, we didn’t open one because we felt that our pastries would be too expensive to sell. Now that we’re in Shangjing, it wouldn’t be too strange even if the price was a little higher. You’re quick to pick up, aren’t you?” Yue Jiaojiao allowed him to hug her. Her eyes scanned the layout of the shop, and the image of the renovated shop appeared in her mind. “It’s true, I want to open a bakery.”
“Like making bread?” Zhao Zhan frowned, and then quickly thought of something. “Or is it the thing you mentioned to me before that requires milk and butter to make?”
Yue Jiaojiao knew that he had remembered every word she had said.
“That’s the one.”
The renovation of this shop would be a lot more troublesome than expected.
Yue Jiaojiao had worked hard at baking for a long time. Back in Willow Village, it was really troublesome to make this thing. In addition, Zhao Zhan always made different kinds of pastries for her to eat, so she didn’t have such a strong desire to bake.
Today, however, as she walked down the street, she could smell the sweet fragrance coming from the pastry shops.
The desserts in Shangjing were much more colorful than those in Huai County and even Yang City.
If it weren’t for the difficult process of making milk and butter, it would be a waste of these people’s skills for baking.
“You want to use something with glass?”
Zhao Zhan could guess his lover’s thoughts just by listening to her.
“I just happened to ask Chang Ning to ask a glass maker today. They can’t make glass as big as a door, but they can make a small piece.
“If you want to use it, I can find a skilled carpenter in Shangjing and make some narrow wooden shelves. Then, we can embed the glass pieces in them.
“If you really want something like what you mentioned last time, then this is the only way.”
The matter of the shop’s renovation was quickly put on the agenda.
It was currently summer, and the weather outside was a little too hot to handle. Zhao Zhan’s heart ached for her, so he took on all the responsibilities. He kept an eye on the decorations in Yue Jiaojiao’s shop, and left the decorations of the restaurant to Fang Tianliu and Chang Ning.
Due to the complicated process of making glass, they were occupied until the weather turned cold and the autumn breeze was getting stronger. Only then did the decoration of the shop come to an end.
