After explaining things to his parents-in-law, Feng Haidong took his sister-in-law and son to a restaurant.

The restaurant was still doing very well; even after dinner time, there were still quite a few tables occupied.

Although there was no one queuing outside, the restaurant was almost full.

Upon seeing Feng Haidong return, the restaurant's waiters immediately surrounded him.

Chen Zhiyong and Song Rui were especially happy to see Feng Haidong return, and kept asking him all sorts of questions.

Feng Haidong first calmed the waiter down, and let his son and sister-in-law sit for a while before taking Chen Zhiyong into the kitchen.

Yang Chengjian was busy in the kitchen when he saw Chen Zhiyong and Feng Haidong come in together, and he was equally excited.

"Brother Feng, you're back? Didn't you say you were going to stay in the provincial capital for a week?"

Feng Haidong said with a smile, "I came back early because I have some things to take care of."

Then, in the kitchen, Feng Haidong revealed his plan to Yang Chengjian and Chen Zhiyong.

“I’m planning to open a branch in the provincial capital. I intend to hand over this family restaurant to the two of you to run together.”

Yang Chengjian and Chen Zhiyong were both taken aback by Feng Haidong's words.

After the initial surprise, Chen Zhiyong was the first to recover and said, "Uncle, I want to go to the provincial capital with you."

Yang Chengjian then came to his senses and said, "Brother Feng, if you go to the provincial capital like this, aren't you going to take care of this restaurant? I... I'm afraid I won't be able to run it well."

Seeing their different reactions, Feng Haidong smiled and patted each of them on the shoulder.

First, I said to Chen Zhiyong, "Dayong, things should be pretty much settled between you and Zhang Yongyan. You should get married after the New Year. It's definitely not okay for you to come with me to the provincial capital. In addition, I hope you will stay and help Yang Chengjian run this restaurant well. I will share the profits with you."

After hearing Feng Haidong's words, Chen Zhiyong couldn't help but look somewhat disappointed.

When he heard Feng Haidong say that he was going to open a branch in the provincial capital, he was really excited and wanted to go with him.

However, just as Feng Haidong said, Chen Zhiyong also knew that he was going to discuss marriage with Zhang Yongyan after the New Year, so he really couldn't go to the provincial capital with Feng Haidong.

After thinking it through, Chen Zhiyong said seriously, "Uncle, I will help Brother Yang run the restaurant well. Don't worry, I don't need any profit sharing."

Yang Chengjian also said, "Yes, yes, Brother Feng, you've already paid us salaries, so we can't ask for a share. If you're going to open a branch in the provincial capital and need us to help you run this restaurant, we'll definitely do our best to manage things well here. We can't ask for a share."

Feng Haidong said, "Let's do business first, and then we can sit down and talk after tonight's business is over."

In the following period, although Feng Haidong returned, he did not interfere much in the kitchen affairs. Instead, he watched Yang Chengjian work from the sidelines to observe whether Yang Chengjian's skills had reached a certain level.

To Feng Haidong's satisfaction, although Yang Chengjian didn't have much innovation, he was able to do a very good job of teaching what he was taught.

I was impressed by Yang Chengjian's ability to perfectly prepare grilled fish, spicy crab, and various kebabs.

Feng Haidong felt reassured about entrusting the family restaurant to Yang Chengjian for management.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Feng Haidong closed the restaurant early today.

After sending the waiters back, Yang Chengjian and Dong Xia, along with Chen Zhiyong, Liu Fang, and Zhang Yongyan, closed the door and began to seriously discuss the restaurant's future operations.

Feng Haidong got straight to the point: "I've already told Cheng Jian and Dayong that I'll be opening a branch in the provincial capital, and I might need to stay there for a while. So, I plan to have Cheng Jian and Dayong run this restaurant."

Apart from Yang Chengjian and Chen Zhiyong, the others were somewhat surprised.

Feng Haidong continued, "From now on, Chengjian, you will take 30% of the restaurant, and Dayong, you will take 10%. The wages of the waiters and the utilities and rent will all come from my 60% share."

Hearing Feng Haidong say this, Dong Xia, Liu Fang, and Zhang Yongyan were truly thrilled.

However, Yang Chengjian and Chen Zhiyong almost unanimously refused.

"no."

After both of them refused, they looked at each other.

Yang Chengjian said, "Brother Feng, you started this restaurant all by yourself with a loan. Whether it was the crayfish back then or the grilled fish and spicy crab now, it's almost all your skills. Now you're passing on your skills to us, asking us to help you run the restaurant, and you're even giving us shares. This is really inappropriate."

Chen Zhiyong chimed in, "That's right, Uncle Dong. If my mom finds out about this, she definitely won't agree."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yongyan couldn't help but wink at Chen Zhiyong, while Liu Fang, seeing this, quietly tugged at her future sister-in-law.

Dong Xia looked at her husband and could only say, "Brother Feng, how about we just forget about this profit split?"

Feng Haidong said firmly, "Chengjian and Xiaodong, you should remember that I said I would open a branch for you and let you two run it yourselves."

Now I'm handing over this old shop of mine to you, entrusting you with its full management. This is a sign of my trust in you.

Then, Feng Haidong added, "Of course, even brothers should keep clear accounts. I will have my sister-in-law take charge of the cashier and bookkeeping from now on. If you two are not comfortable with that, you can keep your own books, and we can check them at the end of the month."

Yang Chengjian and Dong Xia quickly said, "No, no, we're not worried."
