Chapter 411: Discovering Tricks and Bullying Others (5)_1
"Looking for someone? Who?" Lin Yuan idly asked Liuzi while flipping through the account books from the past few days.
Liuzi swallowed, wanting to say outright, "Certainly looking for you, Boss." But thinking of his Young Master’s stingy appearance, the words at the tip of his tongue shifted, "I don’t know either. I asked him, and he didn’t say. He just bought some spicy strips and stuff. However, when he was paying, he did casually ask why you, Boss, hadn’t come."
Liuzi blinked rapidly, constantly gauging Lin Yuan’s reaction, hoping she would catch on to his obvious hints.
However, to his disappointment, Lin Yuan did not even pause her flipping of the account books, merely uttering an "Oh" without further comment.
Liuzi felt a sense of frustration and listlessly shrugged his shoulders.
Lin Yuan then went to check on the kitchen. The staff at Rice Flower Fragrance were all handpicked by herself, much better than those at the tofu shop. They worked diligently and attentively, and their craftsmanship was exquisite.
Especially Uncle Wang, despite being a man, the various pastries he made were on point. When it came to the Twelve Zodiac Joy Cakes used for a child’s full-month celebration, Lin Yuan had only instructed Uncle Wang once, and now he could make them all by himself. Moreover, he even used them as a template to create many other styles, including white birds, a variety of animals, and one that was even more impressive, featuring assorted designs of little children.
Although these joy cakes shaped like children were too precious for people to eat, they served as excellent decorations at banquets, greatly enhancing the host family’s prestige. Thus, this special joy cake became extremely popular.
There was still some time before Ma Xiaoqian’s wedding, and even if she requested a large quantity of joy cakes, with Rice Flower Fragrance’s current staff and ample materials, they could have them ready in three days. Telling Ma Xiaonan that it would take a month was just Lin Yuan’s way of not wanting to accept the business.
