After everyone arrived at the store first, they gathered around and played cards. Yang Lina ran around the villa in the morning and checked the progress of the decoration. These people worked quite meticulously. They also built three villas in a row.
Don't dare to neglect.
When Yang Lina came to the hot pot restaurant, the food was already on the table. They were all acquaintances and not too particular.
When Li Jingming came, Xu Chengye also came shamelessly.
Yang Lina warned: "You can order whatever dishes you want. After finishing this meal, you have to wait another half a year."
"Sister Yang, we will graduate in one year, one year will go very quickly.
When I come back, I will come to your shop every day to eat good hot pot."
Anna is a loyal fan of Yang Lina's hot pot restaurant. When she went to school, what she missed most was the hot pot in Yang Lina's restaurant.
"Okay, then I'll treat you to food every day."
Yang Lina smiled, picked up a piece of beef, and before she put it to her mouth, Liu Zhaodi pushed open the door and entered.
"Sister Yang, Miss Du Xiaoyu is here to see you."
Du Xiaoyu?
While Yang Lina was confused, Xu Chengye also had a confused look on his face. His hands holding the chopsticks tightened, and his heart was beating wildly.
Why did Xiaoyu come?
Although Yang Lina was confused, she thought that she would have to eat this meal with Du Xiaoyu.
"You take her to the dining room first and serve her the pot. I'll be right back."
After Yang Lina and Liu Zhaodi made arrangements, Liu Zhaodi went to make arrangements for Du Xiaoyu.
Yang Lina glanced at the sad look on Xu Chengye's face and sighed secretly.
"You guys eat first. Feel free to eat whatever you want. Don't be polite to me. I'll go see Xiaoyu first."
Yang Lina said as she stood up and walked to the door.
Su Han said: "How about we ask her to come up and sit with us? We are all acquaintances."
"No, she just arrived. I'd better arrange another house."
Yang Lina smiled and went to the private room where Du Xiaoyu was sitting.
Du Xiaoyu is still very beautiful, probably because her parents' affairs have been cleared up, Du Xiaoyu's complexion and mood look much better than before.
Whether a person is living a good life or not can't be seen just by looking at her clothes and grooming. You have to look at her eyes.
"Sister Yang."
Du Xiaoyu saw Yang Lina, stood up quickly, and held Yang Lina's hand with both hands in a friendly manner.
Yang Lina glanced at the suitcase at Du Xiaoyu's feet and said in shock: "Did you find me here just after you got off the train?"
"Yes, Sister Yang, didn't I say before that I would open a hot pot restaurant exactly like yours? Didn't I find one?"
Du Xiaoyu smiled. She seemed to have light in her eyes now. She must have let go of many things and wanted to live for herself.
"Did you come alone?
Where is your brother?"
In Yang Lina's memory, Du Xiaokang was a doting lover. When he and Du Xiaoyu appeared together in Yang County, he would carry Du Xiaoyu with him wherever he went.
"I came alone, my brother is in Shanghai, we will stay there for the time being.
I want to open a store by myself, and my house is ready.
When I came here this time, my brother was originally worried about me coming alone, but I am already in my twenties. If my brother followed me again, I would be afraid that I would not find a partner."
Du Xiaoyu was much closer to Yang Lina than before. Yang Lina saw that the two of them were tired of standing and talking, so she said, "Sit down and talk."
After the two sat down, Liu Zhaodi and Kong Xiulan began to put the dishes on the pot.
The familiar smell made Du Xiaoyu couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
Yang Lina said: "You should have called me in advance."
"I called your store. Maybe everyone was busy at the time and no one answered.
Sister Yang, I really want to have sex with you, and I came here unexpectedly just to learn the craft."
Du Xiaoyu looked serious.
Yang Lina thought for a while, and it was not impossible to open a store exactly like her own, so that she could actually advertise her own store.
Yang Lina had long thought about letting people join her, but she had been too busy to think about it.
Having a baby this year is a turning point in itself.
Now that Du Xiaoyu is here, it may be another turning point for the hotpot restaurant.
"Xiao Yu, you have to think clearly. I have opened this store for more than two years. You know, I have encountered some things during this period, but I have survived them all.
Before you start, you need to think clearly about the pros and cons.
You just said that if you want to open a store exactly like mine, if you learn my skills, you have to accept my training and management. Of course, we have to sign a contract before that, and you have to pay me a franchise fee of 5,000 yuan.
, can you accept all of this?"
"Can."
Du Xiaoyu is not short of money. For her, the catering business is actually very simple. As long as the taste is good and the store is clean, business will be very good in the developed city of Shanghai.
Seeing that Du Xiaoyu agreed so readily, Yang Lina said, "Then tell me your thoughts first and I'll listen."
Du Xiaoyu said slowly.
Du Xiaoyu's store decided to have everything the same as Yang Lina's, but the only difference was that her location was not in a busy area, but in a high-end place with few people.
She doesn't want to run a crowded store, but a comfortable store that serves people like her who want to sit down and have a meal.
Upon hearing this, Yang Lina felt that Du Xiaoyu was not going there to make money, but to find something for herself to do.
Yang Lina thought that there were many goldsmiths in her family across the country, and thought it would be good if they didn't lack money.
"Why do you think your idea doesn't sound like you want to make money? It sounds like you want to find something to do for yourself."
Yang Lina couldn't help but tease.
“That’s pretty much it, as long as I can support myself.
It’s not like I’m a waste anymore, I’m always like a child who won’t grow up, and I’ve stayed under Gug’s wings for long enough.”
Du Xiaoyu smiled.
"Okay, with the way you are, I actually don't want you to join. You don't want to make money, but I do.
Xiaoyu, you have to understand that it is not easy for me to open this store. You are my first chain store. I don't want you to lose money, let alone go bankrupt. Instead, I want your store to have a prosperous business and advertise my brand.
"
After Yang Lina finished speaking, Du Xiaoyu looked apologetic.
"Sister Yang, I'm sorry, I was only thinking about myself and not you."
"It doesn't matter. I hope you can understand that no matter whether you have money or not, as long as you want to do it, just put in the effort to do it well. This is my only requirement for you."
Yang Lina didn't want to agree, but she saw that Du Yuyu really wanted to do something, and then she thought that no matter whether it was good or bad, it could be regarded as advertising for herself.
When Yang Lina thought about this, she also thought that her restaurant had always been called Qinyuan Pavilion. This time after Du Xiaoyu joined, it would be called Hongjiujiu Hot Pot.
Yang Lina wants to change the billboard, which means she has to give up Chinese food and only cook hot pot from now on.
