They ate with such relish!
Anyone who sits next to them will eat an extra bowl of rice.
After a satisfying meal, the group began chatting, but suddenly realized something was amiss.
We came here to persuade Aunt He to mend her ways! Why are we eating here?
Just then, Liang Dani came over to collect the dishes. The man in the lead pulled her aside and asked in a low voice, "Dani, does He Jiaojiao work here?"
He Jiaojiao?
Liang Dani paused for a moment before realizing that the people were talking about Aunt He: "Yes, she's at the second store."
Second store?
"Where is the second store?" the captain asked hurriedly.
"Turn right after you exit here and go straight. It's just a few dozen meters after the turn." Liang Dani finished speaking quickly and then cleared the dishes and chopsticks, heading to Shop No. 2 through the back door. As she handed the dishes and chopsticks to Aunt He, she asked curiously, "Aunt He, did you make plans to go out with your friends this afternoon?"
"Huh?" Aunt He, who was washing dishes, looked up in confusion.
"I was just cleaning up the dishes at that shop when five or six people came looking for you. They all know your name!"
Just as He Gu was confused, the six of them had already turned the corner and saw the small truck parked in front of the No. 2 store, as well as Xu An and Xu Guosheng carrying boxed lunches. They thought to themselves, "This restaurant is really doing well!"
Then they saw Aunt He sitting at the entrance of the store washing dishes. The six of them looked at each other in surprise. So this was Xu's Fast Food Restaurant No. 2?
I had just greeted Aunt He when I noticed two boxes of fruits and vegetables placed against the wall in the store. They were so fresh and green, it was really appealing. The quality of the vegetables in this fast food restaurant is quite high!
"Why did you all come here?" Aunt He stopped what she was doing, rinsed the foam off her hands, stood up and greeted the six people.
Hearing Aunt He's words, the six of them realized that they had forgotten to put their masks and sunglasses back on after taking them off to eat! They had been recognized at a glance!
"We just happened to be passing by and heard you say you work here, so we came to see you." The group responded awkwardly, quickly changing the subject: "Sister He, are those fruits and vegetables behind you used for cooking at the restaurant? They look so fresh, where did you buy them?"
Xu An was just about to set off with the small truck when he overheard their conversation. He took a few cucumbers from the basket, washed them, and handed them to them, saying, "These are fruits and vegetables grown in greenhouses in our Xu Family Village. They taste much better than fruits and vegetables from other places. Everyone, have a taste."
After entertaining the group, Xu An got into the small truck and went to deliver goods with Xu Guosheng.
As the small truck turned the corner and passed the No. 1 store, Xu An saw a group of people at the entrance taking pictures with long lenses and microphones.
Seeing this, a series of unpleasant images flashed through Xu An's mind, and he quickly shouted, "Uncle Guosheng, stop the car!"
"Uncle Guosheng, you're delivering goods by yourself today, so I'll trouble the riders to help carry them." With that, Xu An tossed his phone to Xu Guosheng, jumped off the vehicle, and ran towards Yihaodian in a few quick steps.
As they got closer, they could see that each of these people was wearing a work badge.
"A local TV station in Shanghai?" Xu An slowed down after seeing the words on his work permit, looking puzzled.
Why would a TV station come to my store to film? What are they filming?
Xu An thought of several food documentaries from later generations, but the timeline didn't match up. Besides, his restaurant was a fast food chain, and its reputation was limited to office workers. It didn't make sense. How did they find him?
Just as he was wondering, he suddenly spotted a familiar face in the crowd—Lin Xuyang!
Lin Xuyang simply nodded and smiled when he saw him, without saying a word.
Seeing Lin Xuyang's smile, Xu An finally relaxed.
He squeezed through the crowd to the front, stood before them with a broad smile, and said, "Hello everyone, I'm the owner of Xu's Fast Food Restaurant. May I ask what brings you here?"
Rogge, the leader in charge of the team, was taken aback when he saw Xu An's young appearance.
I knew that Xu's Fast Food Restaurant was a newly established restaurant, but I didn't expect the owner to be so young.
However, he quickly regained his composure and handed his work ID to Xu An: "We are staff members from the local TV station in Shanghai. Because of the food poisoning incident some time ago, the food supervision department has joined forces with us to produce a documentary series visiting fast food restaurants. Your store has been selected. Please cooperate with our work."
Xu An took the work permit and examined it. Lin Xuyang was here, so it shouldn't be fake.
Then he remembered what Lin Xuyang had said to him when he came to his house a few days ago, and he immediately realized what had happened.
So Lin Xuyang was already reminding him back then! He just gave a rather subtle warning.
But now wasn't the time to think about such things. Xu An immediately returned the work permit with both hands, his smile widening even further: "It's a great honor to have the opportunity to participate in the filming of this documentary! Please let me know if there's anything I need your cooperation with!"
"Mr. Xu, please tell us about your store's operating methods and business scope."
"OK."
Xu An cleared his throat and then recounted the details of his shop...
At this point, Aunt He was busy and dismissed the six people with a few words, and this "reformation" operation ended in failure.
As the group prepared to return to the entrance of Store No. 1 and ride their electric bikes away, they suddenly noticed a large crowd gathered at the store entrance. Intrigued, they quickly moved behind the crowd and strained their ears to listen to the conversation between Xu An and Luo Ge.
As I listened, I started to understand what was going on. It turned out that a local TV station in Shanghai was filming a documentary at Xu's Fast Food Restaurant!
This documentary will also be broadcast on local TV stations in Shanghai!
The six of them immediately got excited. They couldn't miss such a great opportunity to be on camera. If they could appear on TV, they would have plenty to talk about!
So the six people who had just finished eating went back into the restaurant and occupied the most prominent table, waiting for the TV crew to film them.
To prevent leaks that could allow other fast-food restaurants to prepare, the local Shanghai TV station dispatched six filming teams to simultaneously film the six selected fast-food restaurants.
At this moment, the other five filming teams have also arrived at the fast food restaurant where they are to film, and are communicating with the owner before filming.
Yipinxiang Fast Food Restaurant, which has twelve chain stores, was prominently featured in the filming!
