Chapter 203 Suspension of Business



This house is located in the East Gate area. There is a small hill behind it and a road in front that can accommodate two cars. It has five floors and was built in 2013. The light and view are very good. There is also a small courtyard of more than 50 square meters in the front and a vegetable plot of more than 100 square meters in the back. The original owner planted a lot of vegetables in the backyard.

The original owner had to sell the house because his son wanted to buy a school district house in a big city and he didn't have enough money.

Of course, the price of this house is also relatively expensive, costing 2.8 million.

Zhou Xiuqin bargained with the other party and promised to buy the house in full. The landlord finally gave in and the house was sold for 2.6 million.

Zhou Xiuqin and Shen Fugui paid 1.1 million, and Shen Yunzhao paid 1.5 million, and they bought the house in full.

After Zhou Xiuqin and Shen Fugui bought a new house, Ge Qiang also sold his second house. The price was 100,000 yuan more than he had expected. After deducting various taxes and bank interest, he still made a net profit of more than 60,000 yuan.

He also listened to Cheng Shaoyuan and had no plans to buy a house for the time being, and would decide after two years.

In late December, an influenza epidemic hit the whole of China.

When the flu first hit, Shen Yunzhao announced that Tianfu Villa would suspend business and the business hours would be tentative.

At the same time, Zhou Xiuqin, Yaoyao and Yunduo’s two children were brought to Tianfu Villa.

Cheng Shaoyuan had to go to work and often couldn't meet the same people, so he simply didn't go and lived at home;

Shen Fugui wanted to go with them, but because there were too many patients in the clinic every day, many of them had colds and fevers, and he was a conscientious doctor after all, he didn't dare to close the door of the clinic, so he didn't go with them.

"Stop business? Mr. Shen, this is not appropriate! Although the flu is coming in with great force, all the restaurants and hotels outside are still open. How much will we lose if we close?" Zhao Kai came to persuade Shen Yunzhao for the Nth time, and his mouth was almost dry from talking.

Shen Yunzhao was unmoved. "Our customer flow has dropped a lot during this period. Haven't you noticed? Many customers are staying at home and not going out to eat."

"But our villa still has the same number of customers! It's still packed every day."

"Okay, stop talking! I've already made my decision."

Seeing that Shen Yunzhao had made up his mind, Zhao Kai couldn't help but sigh.

"Tell all employees, except for essential ones, to take a month off, but their salaries will still be paid."

Zhao Kai's face twisted. "A month? Isn't that too long?"

"Not that long!" Shen Yunzhao thought of something and said, "Tell them to come back to work after the Lantern Festival! Our villa will open after the Lantern Festival."

Zhao Kai: ...

Is Mr. Shen crazy?

It is only the end of December now, and there is still a month before the Chinese New Year. If the store opens before the Lantern Festival, then we will be on holiday for one and a half months!

Which restaurant dares to take such a long holiday?

Do you still want customers?

Do you still want to make money?

But Shen Yunzhao didn't care about that.

In the dream, the flu was extremely powerful. Eighty percent of the people in the country were infected and had coughs, runny noses, fevers, etc.

This is not the scariest thing. The scariest thing is that after most people get the flu, their resistance drops significantly, and many people then get various diseases.

Some people's blood sugar was not high originally, but it remained high after the flu;

Some people who originally had no nodules may develop breast nodules, lung nodules, and other nodules after the flu;

Some people are usually in good health and never catch a cold or fever all year round, but after the flu, their health gradually deteriorates, and they often catch colds and fevers, which are not easy to recover from;

Some people were already ill, but they actively received treatment and were in good health. However, their condition worsened after contracting the flu, and they died soon after.

There are so many examples like this that Shen Yunzhao can’t even count them all.

So she would rather earn less but get through this wave and keep her family from being infected as much as possible.

Shen Yunzhao's approach was supported by a group of elders including Old Zheng. Old Zheng said happily, "Xiao Shen, I was just about to ask you about your ideas for the villa, but I didn't expect you to make a decision so decisively. Haha, now we old guys don't have to be afraid anymore. We'll just stay here quietly and not go anywhere."

Originally, Mr. Zheng and a group of elderly people discussed that if the villa was open for business as usual, they would return to the provincial capital and come back after the Chinese New Year.

Now, they don’t need to go back to the provincial capital.

Chen Yunzhao smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zheng. During the period when the villa is closed, we will prepare all the necessities of life, and there will be no problem with food. You can rest assured and stay here."

"I feel relieved with your words!"

Mr. Zheng left with a smile and informed the other elderly people of the good news.

At the same time, Zhao Kai also told everyone that Shen Yunzhao was going to give everyone a holiday, and asked if anyone was willing to stay. Those who stayed would receive double the salary every day.

Everyone was very happy because they had been busy for several months and had not had a good rest. Now that they had such a long vacation, of course they were happy.

Of course, many people don’t want to rest, they just want to make money.

Moreover, those who stayed would receive double the daily salary. This condition was so attractive that a lot of people signed up to stay.

Tianfu Villa is closed and there are no tourists. There are only a few dozen people left in the villa, which makes it seem a lot quieter.

However, it also allowed the villa to return to peace.

Shen Yunzhao takes several children for a walk by the lake every morning and afternoon. After the walk, the children will play badminton, chess, chat, read books and communicate with the elderly.

Everyone in Mr. Zheng's group is highly educated. Each old man is very thoughtful and knowledgeable. Shen Yunzhao especially likes chatting with them.

By chatting with these elderly people, she always learns a lot of knowledge and has different thoughts on life.

After living in the villa for a while, she felt that her thinking had broadened, her mentality had become calmer, and her thinking had become more comprehensive and rigorous. In short, she benefited a lot.

During this period, no one in the villa had a cold or fever, and everyone was in good condition.

Shen Yunzhao was particularly concerned about Cheng Shaoyuan and Shen Fugui who were not at the villa. Cheng Shaoyuan said that almost 90% of the people in their unit had caught a cold and had a fever recently, and many people had taken leave and did not come to work.

Even Wen Mingyao fell ill and took a day off.

Cheng Shaoyuan was fine. He didn't have a cold or fever, and he didn't feel any discomfort.

Shen Yunzhao breathed a sigh of relief, because in his dream, Cheng Shaoyuan also caught the flu and coughed for more than a month. Later, it was Shen Fugui who gave him an IV drip, and it took three days for him to get better.

She went to ask Shen Fugui again. Shen Fugui saw so many patients every day that there were people queuing up as soon as he opened the door every morning.

He works from 8 am to 12 pm, without stopping all day long.

However, his health is quite good. He doesn't feel tired even though he is so busy every day. He can still feel full of energy after a good night's sleep the next day.

Moreover, Shen Fugui has not been infected yet.

"Dad, you should close the clinic!"

Shen Yunzhao advised on the phone, "We don't lack this little money. It's okay for the clinic to be closed for a few days."
