Chapter 1956 1957: Workplace Inspection

The car stopped outside Xi Shan Restaurant, and four people got out. Although it wasn't mealtime, and the usual dining hours were long over, there were still quite a few people inside the restaurant.

Among them, many were queuing up. Ling Zhenfei was genuinely curious about what they were up to.

When they saw Ling Zhenfei, many people recognized him and greeted him.

Ling Zhenfei greeted them back and then led the three people into Xi Shan Restaurant.

Once they entered, the employees inside naturally recognized Ling Zhenfei.

If the staff couldn't recognize their own boss, they really shouldn't be working there.

Someone quickly informed Luo Juan, and she came out to greet him.

"Boss Ling, what brings you here? Inspecting the work?" Luo Juan joked as she approached.

Ling Zhenfei said, "It's nothing, I just brought some friends over to hang out. You don't have to mind me. By the way, what's going on here, why are so many people queuing?"

Luo Juan replied, "Oh, I organized an event, and these people are here to sign up for it."

Ling Zhenfei was surprised and asked, "What kind of event did you organize?"

Luo Juan said, "I organized a reservation event, selling monthly cards."

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback and asked, "We can get monthly cards for meals?"

Luo Juan laughed and said, "I just wanted to try it out. Who knew so many people would show up? With the monthly card, you have to come twice a month; it's not a free-for-all."

Ling Zhenfei was a bit confused and said, "I don't quite understand your method. Why would people want to come?"

Luo Juan explained, "Boss Ling, Xi Shan Restaurant is just too popular; there's a queue every day. I'm now planning to open another branch in the Provincial City. I've already reported the plans to the headquarters.

But the headquarters said there are too many opening plans recently and told me to start prepping by myself. How else can I prep? Of course, I need to get money first, so I thought of this method.

First, let customers spend. With the monthly card, if you make an appointment in advance by phone, we'll keep a table available for you."

Ling Zhenfei nodded, understanding. Since the booming business in Binyang's restaurant, reservations were canceled, and everyone had to queue regardless of who they were.

Now, to raise funds, Luo Juan had initiated a service allowing reservations twice a month with the monthly card.

Frankly, given Xi Shan Restaurant's popularity, there was no need to do this.

Ling Zhenfei said, "How do you want to proceed? Have you found a site?"

Luo Juan said, "I plan to take two steps. First, I want to take over the adjacent property and break through the middle, doubling the size directly.

Then I plan to open a branch in the opposite East City. I've already investigated it, and given the economy and current growth of the Provincial City, two Xi Shan Restaurants can definitely thrive."

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "I'm confident in your ability to take risks, but things change fast. You should first expand the adjacent property, then think about the branch."

Luo Juan said, "Don't worry, Boss Ling, I have a sense of proportion. Once the adjacent property becomes part of us, I'll manage it for a while and then decide. I won't bite off more than I can chew."

Ling Zhenfei admired Luo Juan greatly. Once the adjacent property was acquired, Xi Shan Restaurant in the Provincial City would become the largest Xi Shan Restaurant.

Though it opened later than expected, under Luo Juan's management, it grew very quickly.

It seemed like Luo Juan shouldn't be managing just one property; it'd be a waste to keep her stuck in one place.

Although these were Ling Zhenfei's thoughts, he said nothing.

While they were chatting, Sun Wei and Zhang Zhenlin were ordering dishes, and they put a lot of effort into choosing what to eat.

Meanwhile, Murong Liuqing was touring the restaurant. Xi Shan Restaurant's decor was already beautiful, and as women love beauty, it was only natural for her to appreciate it.

At that moment, Luo Juan glanced at Murong Liuqing from a distance and whispered, "Boss Ling, that girl looks nice, really classy, just like a fairy."

Knowing that Luo Juan had misunderstood again, Ling Zhenfei said, "Fairy and I have nothing to do with each other, don't spread rumors."

Luo Juan chuckled and said, "I get it, I get it."

Though she said she understood, her eyes clearly showed she didn't believe Ling Zhenfei at all.

Later, when Luo Juan had things to attend to, the dishes were soon served, and Murong Liuqing returned.

Ling Zhenfei said, "When we were on the mountain, you tasted dishes I cooked, but the ingredients weren't complete, and it wasn't very professional. Now that we're here, you can properly taste the unique flavors of Xi Shan Restaurant."

Everyone started eating without hesitation, with Sun Wei and Zhang Zhenlin giving a thumbs up as they ate.

"Xi Shan Restaurant truly lives up to its reputation, impressive, impressive."

Murong Liuqing said, "This flavor does remind me a bit of your cooking, though it's not exactly the same; truly delicious."

Ling Zhenfei said, "If you find it tasty, have some more. We're staying here tonight, and tomorrow we'll take the train to Binyang."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhenlin and Sun Wei were overjoyed, with Sun Wei suggesting they might as well drink till they drop.

Ling Zhenfei didn't stand on ceremony and brought several bottles of Fairy Intoxication for them.

The three of them then cheerfully started drinking, yet Murong Liuqing didn't seem to be in a good mood, pondering something unknown.

"Are you three drinking again?"

Murong Liuqing gave a sharp look at Ling Zhenfei.

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "Yeah, what's wrong with having a drink?"

Murong Liuqing said, "There's something I've always wanted to ask you. The night before we left, when we were having dinner, you made that dish called Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Why did it make me feel muddled after eating it?"

Ling Zhenfei laughed and asked, "So what do you think the reason is?"

Murong Liuqing said, "I think there was something wrong with the dish you made."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Didn't you notice that night you slept very well, and felt energetic the next day?"

Murong Liuqing said, "I don't care about the next day; I want to know if there was a problem with the dish that night."

Ling Zhenfei said, "How could there be a problem with the dish? The dizzy feeling you got afterward was because it contained a very important ingredient, which is the same drink we're having now."

Sun Wei, beside them, also started laughing and said, "Little sister, you just got drunk that night."

Murong Liuqing's face turned a bit green, and she said, "Did you do it on purpose, to get me drunk?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "I warned you before we ate, but since you'd never drunk alcohol before, you just have a low tolerance. Look, we're drinking it directly, and there's nothing wrong with us.

Some people look for this feeling of being tipsy and enchanted but can't find it. It's just that you can't handle alcohol well, so don't overthink it."
