"Master, can you open your pharmacies in the capital and invest some fund in our bank? We will distribute the special currency in our bank and make sure that it will be around in the capital. At the moment, the small merchant or street peddle will suffer the most with the deflation in the country," Ni Qing is serving the tea for her master and pushing the cake.

"I see your tea house get some competitor. What are you going to do with them?" Mo Feng is asking her while taking the pumpkin cake on the table.

"Nothing. No one can imitate my hand to produce caramel cake and some sweet. I will release some sweet pastry collection and pastry shop adjacent to the tea house. Let me know about this pastry?" Ni Qing is presenting the plate with the pumpkin cake on it,

Mo Feng is trying the pastry and eating it without bating his eyes. he is looking excitement to eat every piece on the plate.

"What are you both talking?" Jin Yu voice can be hear in the entrance of her palace.

"I am asking master about the new pastry collection for boasting the sales in the tea house," Ni Qing is answering the question from her husband.

"Which one? I did not see any pastry left," Jin Yu is feeling sour because of there is not cake left on the plate on the table.

"Ah, I think master already finishes all of it. how was it?" Ni Qing is asking his master regarding his opinion.

"Can I place order for ten set of it? this is the perfect combination for the pastry with the GU Hua tea with this exclusive set of pastry during the autumn season. I always love your cooking, but this is exquisite in term of the taste palate and sweetness of the pastry. The taste of the tea compliment the pastry and another way around. They are complimenting each other like a burst inside my mouth. You are such a genius, Qing," Mo Feng is praising her pupil for her pastry making skill.

"Wang, can you serve the white dew tea now and I demand a set of pastry like Mo Feng," Jin Yu is pouting his lips after hearing the compliment from Mo Feng regarding her pastry.

"I want also," Ni Sheng and Zhao Yu are speaking out of their mind. they are realising about the delicious treat come from the hand of genius in her palate and taste.

"I am only left with two sets. So, you two have to share," Ni Qing is asking Xiao Nie to get them the last two sets of desserts from the kitchen. 

Xiao Nie is going to the kitchen and pull it from the special pantry where Ni QIng store everything to preserve them.

"How can you only make three sets of the new dessert? You have promised me that you will always make me and Lin Yue each set of your newly developed dessert. Now I have to share with him my dessert..
