Rebirth in the 80s: Becoming a Tycoon, Wooing a Husband, and Getting Rich

Grew up in an orphanage, with average looks, and worked tirelessly for 30 years, accumulating six million in savings. Just as she finally achieved financial freedom without spending a dime, Su Yan ...

Chapter 309 Farewell

Ultimately, the restaurant was named "Half a Day of Leisure".

Tang Li originally wanted to add the words "restaurant" to the end, but adding them would ruin the poetic feel of the name, so he simply called it "Half a Day of Leisure".

Zhu Gongcheng said, "The signboard will be installed tomorrow. When will you open for business?"

Su Yan looked at the other two shareholders, "Bosses, I don't need to think of this, right?"

Tang Li coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment and said, "We had someone calculate the auspicious dates, and only the 20th and 30th of this month are considered auspicious."

It's already September 16th.

Su Yan replied without hesitation, "It's on the 20th. We can't delay any longer."

While she was outside, she noticed that many passersby were curious about their restaurant, and some even asked when it would open.

Restaurants are common, but a restaurant with a decor like Half Day Leisure is extremely rare; its appearance alone is enough to attract attention.

Feng Caixia nodded, "According to your idea, we have been promoting it for the past two weeks. Half-day leisure will offer a 20% discount on the opening day, a 10% discount on the second and third days, and then the price will return to the original price."

The menu is ready: fifty breakfast items, fifty stir-fried dishes, and twenty-eight soups and medicinal soups, for a total of one hundred and twenty-eight dishes. Prices range from five cents to ten dollars. Customized dishes are also available at extra prices.

The ten-yuan item is a medicinal soup and Su Yan's specialty dish. The taste is absolutely worth the price, and she is definitely being fair in charging this amount.

Priced between 50 cents and 10 yuan, this allows ordinary people to enjoy exquisite morning tea; their target audience has never been limited to the wealthy.

"Now all that's left is training the kitchen staff, Ayan. It's up to you to do that. There are currently six chefs in total, and the kitchen equipment has been purchased according to your requirements," Feng Caixia said.

Su Yan calculated the time; two and a half days would be enough.

"Those six chefs will be at the restaurant at seven o'clock sharp tomorrow morning. I guarantee you'll be ready to graduate in two days."

Su Yu exclaimed in shock, "Little sister, it's 128 dishes, not 8! Are you sure you can teach everyone in two days? Don't exhaust yourself!"

“I know, brother.” Su Yan said calmly, “There are methods to cooking. As long as you can remember the methods, you can get the hang of it quickly.”

She looked at the six chefs and said, "I will give you a recipe in a little while. You must memorize it today. Tomorrow, you will be tested on the recipe before you start the practical exercise."

The half-day break I'm giving everyone is quite well paid. If you want a high salary, you have to accept high expectations; this is good for everyone. Almost all six of you have worked with Sister Caixia, and I won't treat you unfairly, but I also hope you'll all take this job seriously.

The six chefs looked at each other and finally said in unison, "We believe in Manager Feng, we believe in Boss Su and Boss Tang, and we will definitely do our best!"

Su Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, everyone was of one mind, and Sister Caixia must have put in a lot of effort during this time.

Next, Su Yan went to the second floor and the office area for inspection.

She was very satisfied with the restaurant's decor; it was much better than she had imagined!

It wasn't until 2 PM that she had to leave to take Su Yu to the train station.

Su Yu bought a ticket for the 4:30 PM train, which takes about two hours to drive there.

Feng Caixia, Tang Li, and the others stayed at the restaurant to handle some minor details.

She felt fine on the way, but as they approached the train station, a feeling of reluctance began to fill Su Yan's heart.

"Brother, when will you come next time?" She looked at the man beside her with reluctance in her eyes.

Su Yu sighed inwardly and reached out to touch her face. "I'll come over whenever I have time. If you encounter any problems here, just ask your senior brother."

He really wished he could break himself in two.

Half of him stayed in Beijing to take care of his family, and the other half stayed in Guangzhou to take care of his younger sister.

But now, he can only come here whenever he has time.

However, his job only allows him about twenty days of vacation a year.

Normally, unless he asks for leave, he never takes more than three days off, even if he is a leader.

The car stopped at the station entrance, and Xie Jin said, "Go in by yourself. We can't take you there since we didn't buy tickets."

Su Yu responded and got out of the car carrying the Guangzhou specialties that Tang Li and Feng Caixia had prepared in advance.

Su Yan rolled down the car window, staring at him expectantly, and instructed, "Brother, you haven't recovered yet, so don't take on dangerous missions. Wait until you're better before taking them, okay?"

She was afraid that Su Yu would force himself to put on a brave face.

"Okay." Su Yu said indulgently, "I wouldn't risk my life for you guys. Alright, I don't like having people watching me leave. You guys go first, or I won't go in."

Xie Jin had no choice but to pull Su Yan inside, then close the car window and quickly step on the gas, afraid that Su Yan would open the window again in the next second.

Su Yan pressed her face against the window, watching Su Yu's figure grow increasingly blurry before she looked away. She then said resentfully to the driver, "Senior brother, you're so heartless! A heartless man will stay single forever!"

Xie Jin sneered, his tone extremely dangerous, "This little girl is getting bolder and bolder, she even dares to curse her senior brother. You'll know how to write an apology when you get acupuncture later."

"Senior brother, I was wrong!" Su Yan, ever flexible, leaned forward and tilted her head to look at him, cupping her small face pitifully as she said, "How could you bear to be so cruel to your smart and adorable junior sister?"

After she finished speaking, she kept blinking her innocent big eyes.

Xie Jin glanced sideways, “…”

What could he do?

He doesn't consider himself a typical man who knows how to cherish and protect women.

Perhaps it's because of his profession, but in his eyes, men and women are nothing more than male and female animals.

But now, facing Su Yan, he realized that his previous thoughts were wrong.

It turns out he only has a good temper with people he cares about.

Back at the apartment, Xie Jin gave her acupuncture.

It was already past 7 p.m. when the acupuncture session ended.

Su Yan was a little tired today and lay on the sofa, unable to move at all.

He then asked his assistant to bring dinner over.

My assistant arrived with dinner at eight o'clock.

Xie Jin opened the door for him.

The assistant's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when he saw Su Yan as he walked in, utterly shocked. "Dr. Xie, you've been keeping a mistress?!"

Su Yan was already in a semi-conscious state when the shout startled her awake.

Upon seeing the stranger, she immediately jumped up from the sofa.

Hearing Su Yan's call, Xie Jin, who had locked the door, quickly came in.

The little girl's face turned pale, and she stood pressed against the wall, still somewhat shaken.

He kicked his assistant, his face darkening. "This is my junior sister! You scared her, apologize to her!"

The assistant realized his mistake and blushed deeply, quickly apologizing, "I'm sorry, comrade, I was just joking."
