"I genuinely wanted to take you on as my apprentice." The bald chef sighed regretfully once again. He could see that Lu Qingyan's talent and skill level were quite good; even at her current level, she was comparable to some of the more famous chefs. If he taught her properly, she could definitely become the best chef in China.
Lu Qingyan smiled and declined again. She then asked about something else: "I came here today to talk to you about something else. Now that you've been exonerated, I wonder when you'll be able to reopen your shop?"
The bald cook waved his hand: "I wouldn't dare."
The crackdown was so severe back then that it still haunts him. If it weren't for those incidents, he wouldn't have felt the urge to go to such a place.
"But now that the college entrance exam has been reinstated, there will definitely be a second and a third time. I think it's the same with opening a shop. Right now, the higher-ups don't agree, and many people don't dare to, but the higher-ups will eventually speak up on this matter, and it shouldn't be long before they do. Uncle, shouldn't you start preparing?"
The bald chef grew up in the kitchen, so how could he bear to give up all his skills? Naturally, he wouldn't be indifferent to this kind of news.
With tears in his eyes, he excitedly grabbed Lu Qingyan and asked, "Really?"
Lu Qingyan nodded: "Although the official documents haven't been released yet, we can guess the future trend based on the current momentum. Whether it's true or not, the news will definitely come out in a while. You should prepare early, and you'll definitely be able to get things done smoothly and successfully."
The bald cook thought for a moment, then slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, but I'll write a letter to Old Lin first. He's definitely better informed than us."
Old Lin's letter arrived quickly, and it even included a letter for Lu Qingyan.
The bald cook looked at the envelope containing the letter addressed to Lu Qingyan, which was tucked inside the letter, and couldn't help but smile.
Even without reading the letter, he could guess who wrote it to Lu Qingyan. Who else but Rong Qing could have such thoughts?
However, he really couldn't figure out what Lu Mian was thinking. Otherwise, since he had some connections with Elder Lin, why couldn't he ask Rong Qing about his recent situation?
But if nothing really happened, why would this girl be so happy to see Rong Qing's letter?
The bald cook shook his head, feeling that he was too old to understand the young people anymore.
When he opened the letter, sure enough, it said that the government was about to liberate the economy and encourage industrial development. The investigations were much more relaxed now, and as long as he kept a low profile and kept a low profile, he wouldn't get arrested.
Once the policy documents are officially issued, he can open as many restaurants as he wants without any problem.
With his old friend's assurance, the bald chef said confidently and cheerfully, "Little Mian, we can get started now."
Lu Qingyan also saved a lot of money and opened a shop with the bald chef, from which she could get a share of the profits each year.
Lu Qingyan plans to dedicate her life to teaching and educating people. At this time, teachers' salaries are not high, so it would be good to have this as an additional source of income for the family in the future.
And so, the bald chef's restaurant, Fumanlou, quietly opened at the entrance of the alley.
Not long after, policies to encourage economic development and commerce were finally introduced, and the news reached City B and also Green Water Village.
Liu Yi hadn't even had time to leave when he heard the news, and other thoughts began to form in his mind.
