Feng Haidong was not affected by his brother-in-law Lu Yaobin's family affairs.
Even when he got home at night, after his wife explained the attitude of Gong Ting and her family, he was still deeply moved.
Although Feng Haidong was unaware of the hidden details behind Lu Yaobin's divorce in his previous life.
However, after several encounters with Gong Ting, he had already roughly guessed some of the clues.
The fact that Lu Yaobin, the brother-in-law, is divorced is probably unchangeable.
Judging from the current situation, Zhou Xiaoxiao was not the truly decisive factor in Lu Yaobin's divorce in either his past or present life.
The almost irreconcilable differences between Lu Yaobin and Gong Ting, especially their disagreements on how to treat others, may have doomed them to divorce.
However, Feng Haidong really didn't expect that his rebirth would cause some time discrepancies.
So since he knew Lu Yaobin was destined to divorce, Feng Haidong was naturally not affected.
He still made all the necessary preparations, and the crayfish restaurant opened as planned.
Early in the morning, Feng Haidong arrived at the station, waiting for the crayfish that Feng Baoan had sent from the town.
Feng Baoan didn't have to wait long before a small truck pulled up in front of the station.
To Feng Haidong's surprise, his parents, elder sister, brother-in-law, and nephew Fang Jie also came along in the car.
Feng Haidong stepped forward and greeted the people in the car with a smile: "Mom and Dad, eldest sister, brother-in-law, and Xiao Jie, you're all here? That's perfect. Come with us to my shop."
As he spoke, Feng Haidong gave the driver a general directions, and then he got into the back of the small truck.
The brother-in-law and nephew, who were also in the back of the car, greeted Feng Haidong with smiles as he got in.
Fang Jie asked, "Uncle Dong, where is your shop?"
Feng Haidong said with a smile, "The shop isn't here. It's quite a distance away, in a more populated area of the city. Business will be better there."
As the car started, Feng Haidong introduced the surroundings to his brother-in-law and nephew along the way.
“Brother-in-law, Xiao Jie, look over there, do you see that? There’s a long street over there, that’s where the night market is now. I used to have a stall there.”
Fang Jianxing and his son Fang Jie both looked in that direction when they heard this, looking at the night market that Feng Haidong was pointing to.
After looking at it, Fang Jianxing said, "Haidong, this night market has a great location. It's accessible from both ends, and the surrounding roads are very clear. Why don't you work in the night market?"
Feng Haidong replied, "Although the night market has a good location, there are no shops here. You can only set up a tent and do business. Moreover, the best spots in the night market are basically already taken by others. You can't compete with them for their spots, so it's better to open a shop."
Before his brother-in-law could speak, Feng Haidong continued, "I think that since we're going to do it, we should do it properly."
Fang Jianxing said, "Haidong, you're really amazing now, you have both courage and ability."
Feng Haidong said with a smile, "Brother-in-law, actually everything is done by people. Ability and courage are only one aspect. What's more important is being able to do things in a down-to-earth manner."
Fang Jianxing nodded, and seeing that his son was listening attentively, he said to his son, "Xiao Jie, did you hear that? You should learn more from your Uncle Dong in the future. Your Uncle Dong is not only good at writing articles now, he's about to become a big boss."
Feng Haidong said, "How can I be considered a big boss? I'm just a greenhorn right now, jumping in headfirst. Whether I can make it big depends on my efforts later."
Fang Jie listened quietly to his father and uncle, while also making some plans in his mind.
Following Feng Haidong's directions, the car soon arrived at the front of his crayfish restaurant.
The car stopped by the roadside, and everyone got out one after another, looking up at Feng Haidong's shop.
Above the shop is a large signboard spanning three storefronts.
Haidong Shrimp King
Upon seeing the sign, Fang Jianxing immediately exclaimed, "Haidong's sign is really imposing, and the name is fantastic!"
Feng Haidong laughed and said, "Haha, I didn't think much about the name. I just felt that if I was going to do something, I should do it to the best of my ability, so I decided to give it a powerful name."
The eldest sister, Feng Yunhua, said, "That's great! Haidong, you've really done a good job."
The father nodded in approval, which was considered as his acknowledgment of Feng Haidong's arrangements.
Then, Feng Haidong, along with Feng Baoan and his brother-in-law, carried all four baskets of crayfish off the train.
However, instead of pouring them directly into the large fish tank at the entrance, Feng Haidong first carried all four baskets into the backyard of the shop, intending to sort them out there.
When Feng Baoan heard that Feng Haidong wanted to select the shrimp, he smiled confidently and said, "Haidong, don't worry, I've brought you about 300 jin this time, and they're almost all big shrimp."
When Feng Haidong asked Feng Baoan and Fang Jianxing to help him empty the basket, he saw that the crayfish in the basket were indeed quite large.
Seeing this, Feng Haidong said with satisfaction, "Very good, thank you so much, Uncle Bao'an."
Feng Baoan then said, "Haidong, there's something I need to tell you. We also screened this batch of shrimp. I didn't listen to you and still sold some of the crayfish that weren't screened."
Feng Haidong was taken aback for a moment, but quickly smiled and said, "It's alright, let's just sell it."
Feng Baoan said, "Haidong, don't worry, the ones we sold were all small shrimp. We'll send you the bigger ones."
Feng Haidong then said seriously, "Uncle Bao'an, it's fine if you sell them this time, but starting tomorrow, you must send all the shrimp to me. You don't need to help me sort them. I will bring people to sort them myself when they arrive, because I not only need these big shrimp to cook on the spot, but I can also make salt and pepper shrimp tails from the small shrimp."
Feng Baoan hesitated for a moment and said, "Haidong, if you take all of these, won't it tie up your funds?"
Feng Baoan meant well by saying that.
After all, Feng Baoan always settled accounts with the villagers in person when delivering shrimp to them in the town.
Therefore, Feng Haidong also needs to settle the daily bill with Feng Baoan.
And you also need to pay the delivery driver every day.
Feng Baoan was worried that if Feng Haidong's shrimp didn't sell well, he might run out of cash because he wanted too many shrimp.
Feng Haidong immediately understood Feng Baoan's good intentions. He smiled and said, "It's alright, Uncle Baoan, don't worry. Since you're here, wait until tonight to go back. In the afternoon, check on my business here so that you can have a better understanding of things."
Seeing Feng Haidong's confidence, Feng Baoan nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll stay and support you, Haidong."
Feng Haidong smiled and said, "That's right. If it gets too late tonight, Uncle Bao'an, don't go back. I'll find a hotel for you, my older sister, brother-in-law, and the driver to stay overnight. You can all go back with the driver tomorrow morning."
Feng Baoan said, "No need, the driver is here, it'll be convenient to go back tonight."
Feng Haidong said, "We'll see then. If it's late, you'll have to follow my instructions."
As a result, everyone agreed to follow Feng Haidong's arrangements.
