Su Binglan left the shop renovation entirely to her uncle and gave him enough silver to do it.
Su Zhengde looked at the money and said, "We don't need that much."
"I've done the calculations, Uncle Zhengde. That isn't much silver, especially since the money you receive from others is more than this. I consider this amount too little. You can't charge me less than you would others, Uncle Zhengde."
Since Su Binglan said so, Su Zhengde had no choice but to accept the money.
Su Binglan told her family about the follow-up to the hotpot restaurant during dinner. The family typically discussed these things together, after all.
After some thought, Su Binglan said, "We'll need a lot of charcoal, pork, mutton, and vegetables when we open this restaurant. We'll be busier than ever when that time comes, so it would be best if one of us were responsible for buying what we need."
