Chapter 709 The Flower Ecological Restaurant
"Bastard, doesn't he have any scruples?" As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Xiuying roared angrily, "Yan Feifei was once engaged to Qin Zongheng, but now this bastard has a relationship with Yan Feifei. Doesn't he follow any rules of the ancestors?"
"Is Chu Xuanyue crazy? How can she even agree to this kind of thing? People like her who do not follow any rules will never be allowed to enter our Chu family!"
Everyone in the Chu family looked at each other and remained silent. They did not know what the old lady was thinking of. It was as if she expected the Tang Sect to find favor with the Chu family, when it was the Chu family who had to try and find favor with them.
Chu Xuanli said, "Mother, you can't say that. Although Yan Feifei was engaged to Qin Zongheng, Qin Zongheng did not agree. He fled on his wedding day."
"From this point of view, Yan Feifei had nothing to do with Qin Haodong. There's nothing wrong with free love."
"They can't do that either..."
Jin Xiuying was just about to publicize her old and rotten rules when Chu Shanhe said with a sullen face, "Enough, don't mention it again. No one from the Chu family will be allowed to provoke the Tang Sect in the future. No one will be allowed to disrespect Qin Haodong, or they will be punished!"
"I..."
Jin Xiuying was extremely annoyed. She felt that Chu Shanhe's words were directed at her. But before she could say anything, Chu Shanhe said coldly, "Remember, from today on, you will tolerate any dissatisfaction with Qin Haodong. If you bring disaster to the Chu family, I will be the first to punish you."
After returning to the Tang Sect, Qin Haodong introduced Yan Feifei to everyone. They in turn welcomed this new member. Only Chu Xuanyue was not used to it at first, but as time went by, the relationship between them gradually eased up a lot.
Yan Feifei had successfully broken through the bottleneck of the Saint Realm and the women of the Tang Sect had not done it yet. Qin Haodong could not help being a little anxious. It seemed that these people's foundations were still a little behind Yan Feifei's.
In order to speed up everyone's cultivation, he took out a large number of Medium Spirit Stones from his Storage Ring and set up a Spirit-gathering Formation in the whole Tang Sect.
After this arrangement, the Spiritual Qi of the Tang Sect was much stronger than that of Shenbao Mountain and the speed of cultivation of the whole Tang Sect was greatly improved.
After doing all these, it was almost midnight. Qin Haodong went to Qi Waner's room. Since he had brought this little girl back, they had not had any intimate contact.
Qi Waner was her usual fiesty self. As soon as Qin Haodong entered the door, she pounced on him and threw him on the bed.
After a long time, both of them were very satisfied. Qin Haodong began to run his Genuine Qi to help her improve her cultivation through the Double Cultivation Initiation Method.
On the morning of the next day, Qi Waner's cultivation had also reached level nine of Supreme Power Realm.
Qin Haodong was not surprised at this. Although his current cultivation had reached the threshold of Saint, Qi Waner's state of mind was not strong enough. The Double Cultivation Initiation Method could not help her to become a Saint. She could only rely on her own cultivation to improve her state of mind.
Once her mental state was strong enough, she would naturally be able to break through the Saint's bottleneck in one fell swoop.
After breakfast, he went to the Zhao family again and met with Zhao Qingwu for half a day. They made an appointment for Zhao Qingwu to go over to the Tang Sect that night.
During this period, he also obtained a lot of information about Han Jieyu. Zhao Qingwu, one of the three beauties in the capital, liked to dance. Wei Yanran liked to draw, while Han Jieyu regarded flowers as her life and was very much into flowers.
In the outskirts of the capital, Han Jieyu was the sole owner of a flower ecological restaurant. At first, she just ran it to satisfy her personal preferences. Unexpectedly, more and more people came to eat at her restaurant and slowly it became one of the high-end eating places in the capital.
In the food industry, its status was not inferior to that of the Taotie Restaurant.
Half an hour after leaving the Zhao family, Qin Haodong stood in front of the restaurant.
It had to be said that the concept here was indeed very unique. The shape of the entire ecological restaurant was like that of a blooming peony flower. It looked not only beautiful, but also very classy and superior.
At this time, it was almost noon. A continuous stream of guests patronised the place. There were many luxury cars in the parking lot in front of the restaurant. The people who came over to eat were either elites in the industry or business celebrities. They were all upper class people.
Qin Haodong stepped into the restaurant. As soon as he entered, he smelled a fragrance. The other restaurants were filled with the fragrance of food, but here, it was filled with the fragrance of flowers and grass. It seemed that this was not any ordinary place.
In the hall of the ecological restaurant, there was a sea of flowers. Some precious flowers that were rarely seen outside could be seen everywhere.
Tables were placed in the midst of the flowers and each table had a pot of delicate and beautiful flowers. Eating in such a place was a great enjoyment, both for the senses and spirit. No wonder the business here was booming.
Qin Haodong was admiring the whole scene. Suddenly, a young girl came out and rushed to the door.
He was slightly stunned and then he cried out, "Sister, when did you come to the capital?"
The girl was Wang Rubing, the secretary to the mayor in Jiangnan City. When she saw Qin Haodong, she was also shocked. Then she cried happily, "Haodong, why are you here?"
Qin Haodong said, "I'm looking for someone here."
It was too complicated to explain about building the Tang Sect in the capital in such a short time, so Qin Haodong did not tell her.
He asked again, "Sister, what are you doing here?"
Wang Rubing sighed and said, "What else can I do? I'm treating someone to a meal."
Qin Haodong smiled and said, "Isn't it a good thing to eat? Why do you look unhappy?"
"How can I be happy?" Wang Rubing said with annoyance, "The environment here is good, the food is good, but you should have a look at the prices. A plate of food costs about a month's salary. If it is not necessary, who will come here to eat?"
Qin Haodong said, "It's nothing. You can order whatever you want here. I'll pay the bill for you later. You can have some fun in the capital this time. All the expenses will be on me."
Wang Rubing glared at him and said, "Are you that rich?"
Qin Haodong wanted to say that he was really rich now, but he did not dare to say such words in front of Wang Rubing. Otherwise, he would be questioned for three days and three nights.
Wang Rubing said, "Actually, I did not come alone. Mayor Li is also here. Today, we are here with a guest from the capital..."
Wang Rubing explained the situation. It turned out that Wufeng County in Jiangnan City was one of the most famous poor counties. After Li Changzhi took office, he promoted the eco-agricultural construction of Wufeng County. This plan was supported and received a large sum of industry support.
Originally, this was a good thing, but the people of Wufeng County came several times, but failed to bring the money back. They were always being suppressed by a small section chief of the financial department.
Li Changzhi had no choice but to seize the bull by the horns and bring Wang Rubing to the capital, hoping to take the money back to Jiangnan Province.
Speaking of this, Wang Rubing said angrily, "That man is just a small section chief and his level is not much higher than mine. But he is even more arrogant than the mayor. I'm so angry."
Qin Haodong smiled. There was an old saying in Huaxia, "King of Hell" is easy to deal with, but the imps are hard to cope with. Some people at the bottom were really hard to deal with.
He said, "Are you and Mayor Li going to invite that person to dinner today?"
"Yes, it's a treat for that person." Wang Rubing said discontentedly, "This is a treat from Mayor Li himself, but that person has asked to eat here, saying that the ambience is excellent."
"The ambience is good, but the prices have also been raised. Just now, I have just taken a look at the menu. Even an ordinary private room's minimum consumption is more than 30,000 yuan."
"Mayor Li is not particularly rich, so I just reserved a table in the lobby."
Qin Haodong said, "In fact, you don't have to do that. I've told you that you can spend money here at will. I'll pay the bill later."
Wang Rubing shook her head and said, "Forget it. According to Mayor Li's ethics, he will not agree when he comes later."
Qin Haodong smiled and did not insist. He said, "If you can't resolve this problem, I can help you."
Wang Rubing was his sister and Wufeng County was his hometown. He was very willing to do something for his hometown.
"This is the capital. Do you think it is Jiangnan City? Besides, the other party is from the finance department. Although he's not a highly ranked official, you can't help us."
Wang Rubing was not very clear about Qin Haodong's background. She thought that he just came to the capital to look for someone to do business, so she naturally did not want to cause any problems for her younger brother.
"Well, you do it first. I'll help you if it doesn't work out."
Wang Rubing did not take his words seriously and said, "Mayor Li and the Mr. Gao are coming soon. I'll go out and receive them."
After that, she hurried out.
After Wang Rubing left, Qin Haodong went to look for a waiter to find out where Han Jieyu was. At this time, a young man came in from outside.
The man was about 30 years old. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and had a gentle look about him. He was wearing a suit and his hair was carefully combed. He was holding a box in his hand. It seemed that he was not here for dinner.
As soon as he entered the door, the lobby manager of the restaurant greeted him warmly. "Mr. Ma, you're here. Miss Han is waiting for you inside."
The young man nodded and followed the manager inside.
Qin Haodong heard that this person was going to see Han Jieyu, so he was saved the trouble of inquiring. He followed the two of them in.
The staff in the hall thought he was with the young man and no one stopped him.
The manager led the way and passed through the hall of the restaurant. After walking through a long corridor, they came to the flower shed behind the restaurant.
As soon as they entered the restaurant, they could feel the warm airflow, which was much hotter than that in the hall of the restaurant.
Looking around, Qin Haodong was slightly surprised. The flower shed was so big that he couldn't see the edges at a glance. It looked like it was acres wide.
There were all kinds of flowers and plants everywhere in the flower shed, almost including all the flowers and plants that people could imagine. The overpowering fragrance made one feel suffocated.
However, for some reason, all the flowers here were in a bad shape. Many of them had already withered, as if they had gone without water for a long time. In this kind of artificial flower shed, it should not be affected by drought.
And in the flower shed, many workers were constantly spraying water on these flowers, but it was not helping at all. The leaves of many flowers seemed to have been roasted. They were all dry and withered and starting to turn yellow.
In front of the flower shed, a tall woman with a delicate face was looking worriedly at the flowers. From her eyes, it could be seen that she really cherished these flowers.
Standing next to her were seven or eight flower experts. Looking at the withered flowers in front of them, they kept shaking their heads and sighing.
They were all famous flower art masters in the capital. Some people had even been dealing with flowers and plants for a lifetime, but they had never seen this kind of plant disease before.
