The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 170

[Chapter 170 The Emperor’s Dividend]

The shopkeeper was startled by Lin Tian, and when he saw that Lin Tian didn’t look like he was joking, he quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

“Young Master Lin, are you telling the truth?”

Shopkeeper Liu still didn’t quite believe it. Yunlai Restaurant was one of the more profitable businesses of the Sun family, and it was unlikely that he really gave it to Lin Tian!

“This is the deed, take a look to see if it’s fake.”

Lin Tian didn’t waste any more time talking to him, and directly slapped the deed of the shop on the table.

Yesterday, Sun Zhi had already said that he would give this thing to him, and it was certainly not a joking expedient.

A gentleman’s word is as good as a horse.

What’s more, there was Eunuch Shun present at the time, and that was the emperor’s eyes!

Even if Sun Zhi wanted to do something small, he didn’t have the courage.

After all, the Sun family is an earl to say the best, and to say the worst, it is already the end of the road.

After a hundred years, I don’t know how Sun Qi can develop the Sun family.

“This… I am Liu Shunzi, meeting Master Lin!”

Shopkeeper Liu, or Liu Shunzi, took a look at the deed and knew that what Lin Tian said was true without even having to look at it.

After seeing the scene where Lin Tian broke Sun Qi’s arm with one hand yesterday, he immediately knelt down with a plop, which was considered as recognizing his master again.

He was also a smart man, and he was just a shopkeeper hired by the Sun family from outside, so changing a master didn’t mean much to him.

“You get up first, take me to the back kitchen to see, is the chef still there?”

Lin Tian waved his hand, put the deed back into his sleeve, and glanced at Liu Shunzi.

This guy is still a perceptive person, and it seems that his ability to do things is not bad. He can let Song Zijie come here to train.

But now he is more interested in the chef and wants Liu Shunzi to take him to see him.

The person who can make Yunlai Restaurant so popular is definitely not an ordinary person.

“Yes, yes, Master Lin, please follow me!”

Liu Shunzi quickly stood up and walked to the back kitchen with Lin Tian, bending his waist.

However, when the two of them went to the back kitchen, they found that only some ordinary cooks were cooking.

Although everything was in order, Lin Tian did not see the person he wanted to see.

“Where are the people?”

Lin Tian knew that there was no one he was looking for here after a glance.

“Hello? Where is Chef Zhang?”

Liu Shunzi wiped the sweat from his forehead, a little nervous, fearing that this young master Lin would make fun of him when he was in a bad mood.

He didn’t dare to provoke someone who had a relationship with the emperor!

So he immediately pulled a little cook to ask, and the cook first looked at Lin Tian and didn’t recognize him.

“Chef Zhang just went out for something and said he would be back tonight.”

The little cook answered truthfully.

“Forget it if he’s not here, I’ll come back another day.”

Lin Tian took a look at the well-organized back kitchen. In his impression, the back kitchens were all messy, but this one seemed very orderly.

Subconsciously, he thought it should be the work of Chef Zhang.

“Young Master Lin, please forgive me, this…”

Liu Shunzi’s cold sweat fell, fearing that Lin Tian would suddenly lose his temper.

“Just follow your original plan. I have something else to do, so I’ll go back first!”

Lin

Tian said with his hands behind his back, and walked out first. He has other things to do now, so let him keep the Yunlai Restaurant in its original position.

Tianshang Renjian still needs to be renovated!

So for the next half month, Lin Tian was busy, and from time to time he locked himself in the study, and no one knew what he was doing.

Tianshang Renjian was being renovated in an orderly manner, and the hot pot turnover also came out.

Excluding the cost, a total of 18,000 silver coins were earned in half a month, and 9,000 taels were to be distributed to the emperor.

This was also within Lin Tian’s budget.

Except for the few days when there were more people during the opening, many people were still in a wait-and-see attitude.

After all, few people knew who Lin Tian was.

So those who really had the spending power would hardly choose Tianshang Renjian.

“Pack up, I’ll go to the palace tomorrow to deliver these silver notes to the emperor.”

Lin Tian said.

Originally, it was planned to distribute dividends once a month, but it has made more money recently, so let the emperor taste some sweetness first!

After Lin Tian stretched, he stroked his chin and thought.

I’m afraid that even the emperor didn’t expect that a hot pot restaurant could make so much money.

He must be shocked when he saw these silver bills.

Today, the great Chu is strong, and there is a hint of inflation.

However, this is not within Lin Tian’s consideration. Ten thousand taels of silver is not a small amount.

This is just the beginning, and the profit will be relatively higher. When things get more ordinary, it will probably be this much per month.

“Master, when will our Tian Shang open?”

Tang Chuchu asked.

Lin Tian seemed to be aiming to carve it carefully, and the decoration was done bit by bit.

It is not even half finished yet.

“Wait a minute.”

Lin Tian lowered his eyes and looked at the calligraphy work he had just written with great concentration.

Before, Lin Zuhua asked him to worship the Prime Minister as his teacher, but because the other party had something to do, he put it aside in advance.

And what Lin Zuhua said before also made Lin Tian realize a lot.

He was still too radical after all.

“Okay, Master.”

Tang Chuchu glanced at Lin Tian’s perfect profile, and seeing that he didn’t look at himself, he responded and retreated.

After he walked away, Lin Tian looked out the window in a daze.

Now Tang Chuchu has something to do, but he doesn’t know how to deal with the two in the backyard.

It’s really a headache!

Lin Tian rubbed his eyebrows in distress.

Seeing that it was getting late outside and he had to go to the palace tomorrow, he packed up and went back to bed to sleep.

The next morning, after Lin Tian ate a few bites, he went to the palace with the banknotes.

After half a month, there was still no change in the palace.

However, the weather was much hotter, and there were many cicadas on the road.

“Why are you free today?”

The emperor heard Shun Gonggong report, so he let Lin Tian in.

His spy had already reported all of Lin Tian’s movements during this period to him, and he also knew that Lin Tian was busy in the room all day.

“I am here to give money to the emperor! This is the account book, and the dividends that the emperor deserves!”

Lin Tian said with a smile, and passed what he brought to the eunuch next to him.

Emperor Zhengde didn’t take it seriously at first.

It was just a newly opened restaurant. Even if it could make a lot of money, it wouldn’t be much.

So he just flipped through the account book that Lin Tian brought.

But this made him stop. What’s going on?

A mere restaurant can actually make so much money!

He opened the envelope, and inside was a silver note worth nine thousand taels!
