Jinrong believed his judgment to be correct, and he asked Qi Younian, "Is it because your family lacks capital that you have turned a perfectly good business into what it is now?"
Qi Younian paused and didn't know how to answer Jinrong's question. It was an obvious fact, wasn't it? The food concocted by his granddaughter was definitely fit for the table. Haven't you seen how many dishes Great Crane House, that large restaurant, orders from our little shop every day?
It was precisely because of the lack of capital that they had turned the little shop's business into such an embarrassment.
Jinrong, seeing Qi Younian's hesitant appearance, knew his estimate was not far off, and turned to the cold-faced Jiang Yifan, saying, "Sixth Master, I really can't bear to watch a perfectly good business be ruined by your family. So, I'm willing to lend your family some silver. Take over the two stores next door, spruce them up a bit, and make a good go of it. What do you think?"
