Yong Tai Year 19, Spring, Hangzhou.
Just in the blink of an eye, winter had passed and spring had arrived, and it had been several months since Sun Yixie had returned to Hangzhou.
In these months, Sun Yixie had been busier than ever, so much so that he hadn't even rested much over the New Year.
So what was he busy with? It was all about the "West Lake Elegant Seat."
Starting such a major project was toughest in the initial phase, usually just selecting the location and purchasing the land could delay things by three to five months, let alone... Sun Yixie was planning to open a restaurant right by the lake in a cutthroat expensive area, where "smoothing things over" and "making connections" involved too many relationships.
Fortunately, the Sun family was a powerful presence in Hangzhou, compounded by Sun Yixie's recently earned reputation with the Jinyi Guard, the officials were also generously giving him the green light everywhere.
