Chapter 232 - 225: Awakening (3)
"Chu Shan came back and said he had met him." Zhang Zhaodi said, "He said he also ran into your uncle on the way back. At that time, he and your aunt were rushing to the provincial city to see the list, planning to go to the Capital City straight after seeing the list without returning to the old house."
"I really envy my aunt; such a life is wonderful." Jia Chunni said, "We haven’t even been to the provincial city, let alone the Capital City. If only we could go out and see the world too."
"This time Wang Shu is going to the Capital City for exams, why don’t we also move to the Capital City?" Zhang Zhaodi said, "Following him will broaden our horizons. Besides, Wang Shu going alone to the Capital City seems too lonely; if we accompany him, he’ll have someone to talk to."
Su Yaoguang thought about how in her past life, after she became the Champion Scholar’s wife, she arranged for people to bring Zhang Zhaodi to the Capital City, but she died halfway there.
In the past life, Zhang Zhaodi never went to the Capital City. In this life, she wanted to take Zhang Zhaodi to explore the rivers and mountains, to admire the scenery of various places. Perhaps, as she said, this time is an opportunity.
Originally, she was thinking of not going to the Capital City. If Zhang Zhaodi wanted to go, then let’s go and see! Now that Xiao Yanci and Jiang Yihuan are both gone, there are no more obstacles ahead of her.
"Mom is right; let’s go to the Capital City." Su Yaoguang said, "The silver we’ve earned is enough to spend, even in the Capital City we can afford some land."
"Really?" Zhang Pandi asked.
"Really."
With Su Yaoguang’s decisive confirmation, everyone became extremely delighted.
Though it was tough for those employees.
Some employees were reluctant to leave their families and couldn’t follow Su Yaoguang to develop in the Capital City. With the Boss gone, the shop may not reopen, and they might lose such a good job. Some employees had no family ties and could follow the host to the Capital City to develop. They firmly believed that following the host was right, especially since almost all Su Yaoguang’s employees managed to acquire homes and land within half a year.
Su Yaoguang invited Cui Rong over to sign a new cooperation agreement with him.
She entrusted Taoyao Square to Cui Rong to manage, dividing the profits equally. Certainly, those who didn’t follow her to the Capital City also needed Cui Rong to settle properly.
After three days of feasting, Zhang Zhaodi brought Su Yaoguang and Zhou Wangshu back to the countryside old house, where they paid their respects at Su Yaoguang’s father’s grave. They then treated the villagers to a meal and donated some silver to the village ancestral shrine, asking them to help take care of Su’s father’s grave and the old house they left behind.
This preparation took half a month, and after half a month, Su Yaoguang led everyone to pack up, hired an escort agency, and grandly left the town.
Zhong Chushan and Chen Buyu were accompanying.
Chen Buyu was newly married and was initially unwilling to part from his wife. However, becoming a husband matured him; now he was more ambitious than ever.
Chen Buyu aimed to gain a title, make his new bride proud, and earn some reputation for her.
From the town to the Capital City, they first traveled by land, then by water, and again by land. In extremely smooth conditions, it would take two months to reach the Capital City.
Their schedule was quite relaxed, with no need to rush. Therefore, along this journey, Su Yaoguang led Zhang Zhaodi and the others to eat well, drink well, and enjoy themselves, appreciating the beautiful scenery and delicious food along the way.
Three months later, they arrived at the Capital City.
At the Capital City gates, everyone gazed at the majestic gate, feeling a touch of emotion.
"Here’s the Capital City, truly luxurious!" Jia Chunni said, "If we open a shop here, we’re sure to earn more silver."
"We haven’t settled in yet, and this little girl is already thinking about making money." Zhang Pandi laughed, "You don’t know how much she’s been nagging about expenses along the way, how much was spent, how much was missed out on earning. She said if it were in town, she could have earned so much daily, but now she’s not only earning nothing but consistently losing money."
"Our Chunni has truly grown, increasingly resembling Yaoguang, the little money-grubber." Zhang Zhaodi said, "That’s quite good."
"Tonight, let’s first find an inn to settle down. Everyone’s exhausted, so let’s rest first. Tomorrow, we’ll find a place to rent." Su Yaoguang said, "Silver can certainly be earned, and we’ll earn more in the future. We didn’t just play along the way; I’ve thought of many formulas, and once settled, we can start creating new products."
