"I've been here for quite a while. And I'm about to go back. But I saw you, so I stopped by to talk to you. Because in the three months that I worked to build this tavern for you, I didn't see your face at all," Chen-Bing replied in a stern voice and stared at Zheng-Fu with a stern look.
"I've been isolated cultivating for the past three months. So, I was too busy to co out to see your work or talk to you. Thus, regardless of how this tavern turns out, whether it's good or not, I don't think I should bla you. But now, this tavern has been completely renovated and rebuilt. And it looks so great. I must complint and thank you from the bottom of my heart. Besides, now I've got another task for you to do too. Are you free?"
Zheng-Fu told Chen-Bing the reason why he had not been there for three months. Then he thanked him for working so hard that the old, dilapidated tavern turned into a luxury tavern like this before he talked about another construction job that he wanted Chen-Bing to do.
"What do you want to build? Right now, I'm very free, and I want to exert myself a lot. If you have a big construction project like this again, I'll gladly give you a discount of ten-hundredths of the price!" When Chen-Bing heard that Zheng-Fu would hire him again, he suddenly burst out an excited smile.
"It will be a big project for sure! By the way, when are you ready to start work?" The task that Zheng-Fu wanted to assign to Chen-Bing was to construct a large hall capable of accommodating the gravity field that Zheng-Fu had taken over and now managed.
"I'm ready to start work at any ti. Just tell what you want to build. I can take care of it for you!" Chen-Bing said as he confidently patted his chest. Because he could build everything with sufficient funds and resources.
"Good! Then after three days, I'll visit you at the Ten Thousand chanisms Shop. You can prepare to wait!" Zheng-Fu nodded in satisfaction before making an appointnt with Chen-Bing.
"All right! In three days, I'll be waiting for you at our store! Today I have to go back to the shop first. See you later!"
Mm!
After Chen-Bing and his team left, the sound of soone's hurried footsteps sounded. And that person was none other than Elder King.
"Master! It really is Master! You've finally co!" When Elder King saw Zheng-Fu, a smile suddenly appeared on his face. It showed how delighted he was to see Zheng-Fu.
"Elder King, you look like you've worn out a lot. Did you get a lot of work? Or did sothing happen?" Zheng-Fu's face remained the sa. He only smiled and asked about the elder's health.
"I'm fine, sir! But recently, many people wanted to et the owner of the tavern. It was very difficult to hide who the real owner was. But now that you're back, I'm relieved that I don't have to face these questions anymore!" The elder's voice was filled with true relief. The look on his face was so shabby because he had been thinking seriously about it. And now that Zheng-Fu, the real owner of the tavern, was back, he could rest easy and recover from his worries.
"Well! Don't worry about that anymore. And now, could you arrange a table of delicious food for us? We are so hungry." Zheng-Fu knew that the elder had to have been very difficult in his absence. Although it was only a short ti, it would be a long ti for the elder to encounter this kind of problem.
"Yes, Grandpa, I'm sooo hungry!" Chang-Yue added. Actually, she was not very hungry, but she wanted to eat the food cooked by the elder.
"Yes, sir, Master! By the way, do you want to change the table, sir? I'll let those boys set up a special room for you!" The elder nodded before offering to let Zheng-Fu change seats in a special room.
"Never mind! I like this place. The view is good here. There is a garden and a carp pond to see. And also, many young won. I'll sit right here!" Zheng-Fu first thought of changing to the special room. But when he saw a young woman sitting not too far from him, he suddenly changed his mind and sat in the sa place because he sensed that this good-looking young woman was that young woman in black.
"Yes, sir, Master."
"Then, Zheng-Fu, how are you going to deal with the situation that the elder said? Are you going to tell everyone that you own Heavenly Gratitude Tavern? If you do that, I'm afraid…"
"You don't have to worry, Senior Disciple. I already have a plan to deal with it. It'll be all right, even if others know that I own this tavern. As we're backed up by three big powers, after all, no one dares to do anything bad to us!" Zheng-Fu interrupted before Jiang-Long could finish his sentence.
"Umm! I hope it's like what you said. How about visiting Sky Thunder-Heavenly Star Clan, are you still going to go?" Jiang-Long knew that Zheng-Fu was a big planner, and he would not have to worry about it. He then turned to ask about a visit to the Sky Thunder-Heavenly Star Clan, for which Zheng-Fu had accepted Lan-Ye-Liu's invitation three months ago.
"I will definitely go. But it must be three days later," Zheng-Fu replied. He had already agreed with Lan-Ye-Liu that he would go, so he had to do as he said.
"So, are you going alone or taking with you?"
Huh!?
"Hey! Don't misunderstand. I'm just asking. I didn't want to go with you!" Seeing Zheng-Fu turn around and make a fierce face, Jiang-Long imdiately hurriedly defended himself.
"I still haven't said anything to you, Senior Disciple! Why are you acting defensively? Let's just say I'm going alone. Because I don't want to stay there for long," Zheng-Fu teased the young man before telling him that he would go alone to make it easier to go and return.
Mm!
Shortly thereafter, a large amount of food was brought to the table. Every dish was excellent. And because Zheng-Fu's table had so much food, all the other table guests turned to look at them. Then so tables even had to order food like them.
An hour passed...
Aaaaaah!
"So full! Grandpa King's cooking skills are still as good as ever. It's no less delicious than Brother Tai-He's!" Chang-Yue said in a very joyful voice because she was a girl who liked to eat and was also good at complinting.
"You're a lot better at speaking now," Zheng-Fu turned to tease Chang-Yue, stretching out his hand and pinching her soft cheek a bit, with a happy smile.
Ouch!
"I'm hurt, Brother. If I don't say that, later on, I won't have a chance to eat Brother Tai-He's food anymore!" Chang-Yue let out a cry of pain and hurried to make excuses for herself.
Ha ha ha!
"By the way, are you going back to the academy or going to your residence?" Jiang-Long asked.
"I'll probably go back to my house. Because I'm worried about all the cats that keep watch over the house. No one has been there for three months; I don't know how they will be," answered Zheng-Fu. He thought that he would return to his Non-identify Mountain now so that he could provide a place to build his Gravity Manor, as well as create many other things he had also planned.
Mm!
"Then I wish you good luck. As for , I have to go back to the academy. I still have to hurry up to cultivate energy levels to catch up with you!" Knowing that Zheng-Fu would not go back with him, the young man excused himself to return to the academy.
"Great! And here's another gift from . Open it just when you get back to your house. Don't open it on the way." Before the young man left, Zheng-Fu handed him a small dinsional ring. Inside it contained a hundred lumps of Abyssal Flake Ore. And Zheng-Fu did not let him open it first because he was afraid Jiang-Long would reject it.
"All right! I'll open it after I get back to the house. No matter what's inside, I won't refuse to accept it anymore. Ha ha ha!" Without hesitation, he imdiately took the dinsional ring from Zheng-Fu.
"Good! Then, I wish you good luck. Next month, on the day of receiving dicine, we'll et!" Zheng-Fu smiled contentedly, before telling him the date he would return to the academy again.
"Good luck, Brother Jiang-Long. Let's play again later!" Chang-Yue bid farewell to the young man as well with a very cute face.
"Good luck to Young Master Jiang-Long, sir!" Tai-He said as well. During the three months that he lived with Jiang-Long, the young man had been very kind and friendly with him.
"So are the two of you. Whenever I'm free, I'll go visit you guys!" Jiang-Long replied to the two of them with a smile before getting up and walking away.
"We must go too. But before we go, I have to deal with so matters first. The two of you must be waiting for here; don't get up and leave this table. If you don't listen, we won't have to stay together again, do you understand!?" Zheng-Fu still had so errands to do before returning to his mountain. And for the safety of both of them, Zheng-Fu forbade them not to get up and go anywhere.
"We get it!"
Both Chang-Yue and Tai-He responded with a serious tone in unison. Because both of them saw Zheng-Fu's eyes were serious, not playing like other tis. They both instantly knew what to do.
After that, Zheng-Fu imdiately got up and walked over to Elder King in the tavern's kitchen. He had to bring with him capital and necessary supplies. This included a personalized communication jade that the elder could use to contact him when an ergency arose. And he also told the elder that if there was an issue and he could not co to deal with it in ti, the elder had to tell the people of the Sacred Divine Thunder Fortress Clan who were guarding outside first, then wait for him to co to manage by himself while trying not to get into a clash first.
"Apart from those things, I also want you to prepare a special room for . In three days, I'll co here again to hold a thank-you feast for Master Pao-Da and Master Chou-Bing."
"I understand, Master! On that day, I'll prepare the most delicious food and the best liquor, sir," the elder imdiately responded to Zheng-Fu's words.
"Well! I have to go back now. If there is anything, use communication jade to contact . I'll co as soon as possible!" When Zheng-Fu finished his assignnts and arranged everything related to the tavern, he returned to his table again, with Chang-Yue and Tai-He still sitting there at his order.
"Well! Let's go back to our ho."
"So how do we go back, Brother? Our house is so far away," before leaving, Chang-Yue asked curiously. Because they did not bring the monster beast of burden with them, and Non-identify Mountain was very far from there. If they had to walk, they would not be able to do it.
"I've bought a flying horse carriage. Although it's slower than riding a monster beast of burden, it's still better than walking!" Zheng-Fu imdiately replied to Chang-Yue. He had already figured out that Chang-Yue had to ask him this question.
