Qin Xiang was extremely jealous.

For the past few days, she has been eating in the canteen, and the meals are all brought back by Battalion Commander Zhu.

Qin Xiang was already tired of the food in the cafeteria.

She liked the food at the state-run restaurants and guesthouses in the city, but a meal there cost one or two yuan.

The restaurant that Tang Zhaodi and Jiang Yue opened was also doing very well.

Tang Zhaodi and her aunt's cooking skills are indeed quite good. She also heard that Jiang Yue only paid for the food, while Tang Zhaodi's family worked there and still got half of the money.

Tang Zhaodi and Aunt Tang are really stupid.

They were actually willing to cooperate in such an unfair way.

If it were her, she definitely wouldn't do that.

Thinking about this, Qin Xiang suddenly felt...

Since Jiang Yue was able to find someone to open a restaurant, and now that she has money, could she also spend a hundred or two hundred yuan to find someone to open a restaurant?

I heard that you can earn a month's salary in a day at a restaurant.

Thinking of this, Qin Xiang became even more excited.

Yes, she could do that. Not only could she steal business from Jiang Yue's shop, but she could also make a lot of money for herself.

But who is she looking for?

Who will cook? Who will help run the restaurant?

Qin Xiang thought of Uncle Zhang again. If Uncle Zhang were here, he could help her sort these things out.

After returning home, Qin Xiang frowned and thought for a long time, but still couldn't come up with an answer.

The people she knew weren't great cooks, but where could she find someone with good cooking skills who was also easy to manage? Besides, she couldn't possibly give up her job at the performing arts troupe. The job, while not very lucrative, sounded prestigious.

This sounds much better than any other job outside.

When Battalion Commander Zhu returned, he saw Qin Xiang's cold face and frowned as well.

Although he was heartbroken over the loss of his child, several days had passed, and she still wore a gloomy expression, which annoyed him greatly. He had tried to comfort her, but his mother had been sent back home.

What else do you want from him?

Are you suggesting he should give his mother his life in exchange for hers?

"Have a meal."

Qin Xiang finished her meal with a cold face.

After finishing her meal, she spoke.

"Zhu Guoqiang, do you know anyone who's a good cook?"

Upon hearing Qin Xiang's words, Zhu Guoqiang assumed that Qin Xiang was complaining about the food, and his expression darkened even further.

“I want to open a restaurant. I heard that Jiang Yue and her friends can earn tens of yuan a day at their restaurant.”

Hearing Qin Xiang's words, Zhu Guoqiang's expression softened.

He had heard about these things as well.

Moreover, Lao He bought a house in the city and arranged for his parents-in-law to live there. Tang's parents are now helping out there. The changes in Lao He's family over the past few months have not escaped the notice of the people in the division. Many families are quite envious.

But as much as they envied them, none of them had wives who could cook.

I heard that the restaurant was a collaboration between Tang Zhaodi and Jiang Yue.

"If you can find a chef who can cook, I can fund the opening of a restaurant. That way, our family's financial situation will improve, and it will be easier for you to get promoted in the future..."

When his promotion was mentioned, Battalion Commander Zhu's heart skipped a beat.

He had always suspected that Lu Yu had used money to pave the way, which was why the position of deputy regimental commander had fallen to Lu Yu.

Otherwise, even the deputy division commander said that Lu Yu still managed to take the position.

“I had a few skilled workers under me before, I’ll call and ask them.”

Upon hearing Battalion Commander Zhu's words, Qin Xiang showed her first smile in days.

"Okay, we must find a good person, and then we'll find someone to help us. It only costs a few hundred yuan to get it done, and we can break even in a month."
