"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, Miss Wan is here."
"Where is it? Where is it?"
"Over there!" The waiter jumped up and down, pointing in the direction where Jiang Wanwan was, and said excitedly.
"I see her! My niece has finally arrived!" Zhang Laifu's eyes were already brimming with tears.
His restaurant business has recently plummeted and is on the verge of collapse. He can only pin his hopes on his own grocery store.
Uncle Jiang drove the oxcart to the entrance of the restaurant. Jiang Wanwan jumped off the oxcart and greeted Zhang Laifu with a smile. "Uncle Laifu, hello there."
"Okay, all is well." Zhang Laifu forced a smile.
In fact, he's not good at all!
The restaurant is about to close down, sigh!
"Niece, take the oxcart to the stables in the backyard first. Come have a meal with your uncle later." Zhang Laifu was still unwilling to give up, pinning his last bit of hope for the restaurant's survival on Jiang Wanwan.
In fact, he had subtly suggested that he pay Jiang Wanwan for some advice. However, Jiang Wanwan did not accept the money and did offer him some advice, but only a little, nothing more.
This suggestion might only boost the restaurant's business for a few days; once the initial excitement wore off, the business would return to normal.
Nowadays, with Lai Xiang Restaurant constantly introducing new dishes, Lai Fu Restaurant's business is even more miserable than before, with only a few customers visiting each day.
This restaurant is a family business left by the Zhang family; it can't be allowed to go to waste in his hands. After he passes away and goes to the underworld, how will he ever face his ancestors again!
Zhang Laifu was so anxious lately that he couldn't eat or sleep, and he even developed several blisters on his lips.
"Hey, Uncle Laifu, you don't look well. Are you sick? Or is our mosquito coil not working?" Jiang Wanwan pretended to be clueless and asked this on purpose.
"Oh, don't even mention it. It's all because of this restaurant. It looks like the restaurant that the Zhang family has passed down for generations is going to go down the drain in my hands. Oh well, let's not talk about it anymore," Zhang Laifu said, shaking his head and sighing.
After saying this, Zhang Laifu burst into tears, looking pitifully at Jiang Wanwan.
Jiang Wanwan patted Zhang Laifu on the shoulder and looked at him earnestly, "Uncle Laifu, do you really want to bring Laifu Restaurant back to life?"
Zhang Laifu's eyes lit up; he knew the little girl must have a solution.
Sure enough, his judgment of people was as accurate as ever!
Zhang Laifu nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes! I'm willing to do anything to make its business better!"
“Uncle Laifu, I have a good idea. However, you may not agree to it,” Jiang Wanwan said, shaking her head.
"I agree! Whatever it is, I agree!" Zhang Laifu raised his right hand as if to swear an oath.
Jiang Wanwan's lips curled up slightly as she rubbed her hands together. "Uncle Laifu, actually, I've also been thinking about opening a restaurant. As you know, I grew up in the Weiwu General's Mansion and have eaten all sorts of delicacies, so I have a lot of experience when it comes to food."
If you truly want to revive Laifu Restaurant, you can consider partnering with me. We can split the profits 40/60, with me contributing my technical expertise, and the restaurant will still be called Laifu Restaurant.
I'm confident I can not only revive Laifu Restaurant, but also make it even more successful than Laixiang Restaurant. In the future, we'll expand Laifu Restaurant all over the country!
Jiang Xun and his second uncle: !!
Open a restaurant?
When did you say that?
This is outrageous! Lai Fu Restaurant is a family business passed down through generations. You're asking for 40% of it? Aren't you afraid of getting kicked out?!
