After the little beggar ran far away, Gu Chengrui took the opportunity to cough and quickly read the note. He was instantly amused, as it turned out to be from Zhou Huaiming.

He said, “Let’s go. It’s been hard for you two brothers to follow me around for the past two days. I’ll treat you to a meal at Hongyun Restaurant.”

“Thank you; don’t mind if we do.” Lin Yifan replied thoughtfully.

Then, the three of them went straight to the Hongyun Restaurant and allowed the manager to bring them all the way to a private room on the second floor.

Zhou Huaiming was standing in front of the window, trimming the potted plants. When he saw them enter, he turned his head and said, “Order whatever you want to eat. I’m almost done with the bonsai.”

After saying that, he went back to work.

“How can you treat a guest like this?” Gu Chengrui sat down and complained. However, despite complaining, he still ordered two dishes that he liked and then handed the menu to Lin Yitian.

“I didn’t see you being polite.” As soon as Zhou Huai Ming finished speaking, the bonsai was done.

He sat back down and ordered a few dishes before letting the manager go back to work.

Lin Yifan and Lin Yitian immediately stood up and stood guard outside.

“So, why did you call me over?” Gu Chengrui asked.

“Are you playing dumb? How can you not know? Tell me everything you know.”

“Hongyun Restaurant is so big, but you didn’t hear anything?”

“Everyone knows that Hongyun Restaurant belongs to me and the Emperor. Anyone doing shady business will avoid this place. Who would want to run into the muzzle of a gun?”

“To be honest, I don’t know much either.” Gu Chengrui nodded and stopped joking. He told him everything he knew and what he had heard over the past few days.

“In that case, this Fang guy’s popularity and reputation are really quite good.”

“Indeed. Of course, it’s also possible that he knew that I was coming, so he just continued as usual; I didn’t dare alert the enemy.

“However, you can check in the direction of the mine. Perhaps you can find something there.”

“That’s the only way. If there’s any news, you can send it to the Hongyun Restaurant at any time.”

“Got it.”

After that, the two of them chatted for a while. When the dishes were served, Gu Chengrui called Lin Yitian and Lin Yifan in.

After the meal, the three of them returned to the inn.

As soon as he returned to the inn, he saw Magistrate Chen sitting in the lobby with a man in his thirties beside him.

Magistrate Chen immediately stood up when he saw them enter. “Has Lord Gu eaten? Would you like to have a bite or two together?” he asked.

“No, I just had a huge plate of pork trotters at Hongyun Restaurant just now. You guys continue chatting.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he was about to go upstairs.

“Lord Gu, why not sit and have a drink? I have something to discuss with you.”

Gu Chengrui hesitated for a moment. He asked the waiter to serve a pot of tea, walked over, and sat down. “May I know what’s the matter, Lord Chen?”

“This is my nephew, Lou Yifei. He is also in first place in the medical examination this time.” Lord Chen looked at the man beside him and said.

“Your foundation is very solid.” Gu Chengrui thought of his exam paper and nodded with a smile.

“He still can’t compare with you. I would humbly request for him to be your apprentice. What do you think…?”

“You guys are really flattering me.

“If we want to compare notes on medical skills, I welcome that.

“But I’m not qualified to be your master.”

“You’re too humble. Your medical skills have been recognized by the Emperor.”

“I was just lucky enough to discover the smallpox vaccine.”

“Shall we discuss medical skills together?” Lou Yifei asked.

“Of course, whenever I’m free.” Gu Chengrui nodded.
