Chapter 599: Encountering a Problem


    Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions


    When Li Xiaoran learned of the changes in the Li family, she felt relieved.


    As long as the Li family was diligent and had enough food, they would cause less trouble.


    She would leave Li Yan to Pei Xuanxin!


    Li Qin was hard to say.


    Who knew if she would be led astray by Li Yan?


    Or perhaps, the sisters were deviants by nature.


    The biggest troublemaker was Li Zhan.


    Luo Cheng naturally didn’t let Li Zhan off.


    With Luo Cheng’s help, Li Zhan, who had gone to the casino as soon as he received the silver, now owed a gambling debt that he would never be able to repay in his life. Then, he was forced by the people in the casino to work in the casino to pay off the money.


    Of course, Li Zhan was unwilling and kept saying that he would find his family to get the money.


    Unfortunately, the casino, which had long received Luo Cheng’s instructions, was naturally unwilling to offend Luo Cheng for Li Zhan’s sake, so Li Zhan could only stay in the casino and do the most tiring and dirty work.


    After that, Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran began to get busy.


    The fief had been settled and the construction of the mansion had begun. At the same time, Luo Han began to take over White Foothill City.


    At this moment, Luo Cheng felt even more burdened.


    Luo Cheng had his own considerations about using White Foothill City as his fief.


    In the past, when Luo Han was the county magistrate, there were many things that he couldn’t do.


    Now that White Foothill City had be Luo Cheng’s fief, Luo Han started implementing what he couldn’t do previously and began to do things that benefited the country and the people.


    Luo Cheng left the construction of the mansion and the management of the farmstead to Luo Ziyang, while he focused on the training of secret guards and the construction of the entire White Foothill City.


    The business of the grilled fish shop and wine shop was left to Li Xiaoran.


    In addition, the people who hade to Luo Cheng previously were also handed over to Li Xiaoran to deal with.


    Therefore, the couple got busy and saw less of each other.


    During this period of time, Li Xiaoran had been living in the house in town.


    Luo Cheng tried his best to rush back at night to apany Li Xiaoran. If he really couldn’te back, he would get someone to send Li Xiaoran a message.


    Li Xiaoran wasn’t the kind of person who insisted on her man apanying her every day.


    When Luo Cheng wasn’t around, she could focus more on what she wanted to do.


    The waiter for the grilled fish shop was well-trained. After training for a while longer, he would be able to start working officially.


    They were still missing a chef.


    Grilling fish was a very simple task for Li Xiaoran, but when it was her turn to teach it to others, she couldn’t find many suitable people.


    For some reason, people who knew how to cook couldn’t cook grilled fish no matter what.


    The grilled fish they made tasted very strange.


    Li Xiaoran observed a few times, but in the end, she could only give up on nurturing people.


    After Li Xiaoran thought about it, he finally decided to recruit people in town.


    Many people wanted to learn carpentry skills, but unfortunately, very few people had the talent for it.


    At this moment, Fan Dechang, who had nothing to do, was learning how to make grilled fish from Li Xiaoran before teaching others how to grill them.


    In less than two days, Fan Dechang also lost his patience.


    “Consort, we can’t keep doing this! Who are these ipetent people? They’re wasting our ingredients!”


    Li Xiaoran happened to be brewing a pot of tea. When she saw Fan Dechang stomping his feet, she couldn’t help butugh.


    “Don’t be anxious. Drink a cup of tea first and talk things out slowly! There’s nothing that can’t be resolved!”


    After Fan Dechang lost his temper, he poured himself a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp.


    Fan Dechang said in surprise, “Eh, this herbal tea isn’t bad!”


    Li Xiaoran said with a smile, “Drink more if you like it. This helps people calm down. Drink a few more sses to calm down before we discuss this matter!” Fan Dechang didn’t stand on ceremony and drank several cups of herbal tea.


    After calming down, Fan Dechang sighed.


    “Consort, is grilling fish really that difficult? It’s clearly a very simple task. Why can’t they master it?!”


    Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and said, “There weren’t many people who ate fish in the past in Sichuan. Moreover, most people ate stewed fish. Very few people grilled fish, therefore, it’s not easy for us to find people who are good at making grilled fish. Think about it, talent is rare! Therefore, we have to be patient! If there’s really no other way, let’s look for hunters! Generally speaking, people who are good at hunting are good at grilling food, so they might be very good at making grilled fish!”


    When Fan Dechang heard this, he pondered over it seriously.


    “Then don’t we have to go deep into the mountains to look for them? You have to know that people who live in the mountains are usually uninformed, so they probably haven’t heard that we’re looking for a chef! Besides, ordinary hunters in the mountains probably don’t want to work as chefs!”


    Li Xiaoran also knew this, so she thought for a moment and said, “I have an idea. Let’s bring some people to the mountains! We might be able to obtain unexpected gains. Moreover, White Foothill City is already His Highness’s fief, so themoners in the fief are all His Highness’s citizens. Helping them escape poverty and be rich is important!”


    Fan Dechang was stunned for a moment, since he didn’t expect Li Xiaoran to say such a thing.


    “I’ve thought about it carefully. If we want themoners to live a good life, we shouldn’t only focus on the viges near the town. We have to broaden our horizons. Compared to the viges near the town, the viges far in the mountains need our help more!” Li Xiaoran said, “We can take this opportunity to find people good at making grilled fish. On the other hand, we can also investigate how themoners in the mountains are doing and what they need!”


    Fan Dechang said, “Consort, there’s no need to say anything else. I’ll go! Even at my age, I feel my blood boil whenever I hear what you say. I have to say that it’s the blessing of themoners that White Foothill City became Mr. Luo’s fief! ”


    Li Xiaoran said, “Don’t say that. Let’s help if we can! Prepare first. When Mr. Luoes back, I’ll discuss it with him and make arrangements. Then, we’ll set off!”


    Fan Dechang nodded and secretly wondered what preparations he had to make.


    It was already a dayter when Luo Cheng returned from White Foothill City.


    Seeing that her husband had returned, Li Xiaoran was naturally overjoyed.


    After cooking a table of delicious food, Li Xiaoran told him that she wanted to go to the mountain area..
