Huimin Hospital's major shareholder is the medical group under Chen Mo's investment company, considered one of the larger investment projects within the company.

But the actual manager is an individual investor holding 49%.

In recent years, Huimin Hospital has been bombarded with numerous complaints and reports, as well as some legal disputes. These negative news pieces have greatly displeased the management in the Northwest Region's investment company.

Ironically, these disputes are not due to the hospital's medical services, but rather... the cafeteria.

The hospital cafeteria has issues such as inflated prices, poor quality food, and not providing meals outside of meal times, among others.

When patients complain to the hospital, they are told: the cafeteria is a third-party service and isn't managed by the hospital.

When they approach the cafeteria, the management says: this was arranged by the leadership, you should talk to them.

Insiders are too afraid to speak up, while outsiders think it's better to avoid trouble since they're just there for medical treatment, making them feel inherently inferior.

Some even have the mindset that "the hospital is only out to make more money."

The head office has issued multiple rectification notices, but over there, they remain indifferent. If you want me to rectify, I'll comply, but who knows how effective it'll be. Moreover, a county official is not as powerful as the one in charge, as the hospital also has the medical group to answer to, rendering the investment company unable to intervene.

Liao Feng's solution was to come up with a pretext and establish a new project within the hospital, forming a restaurant managed directly by the investment company's catering group.

Let the professionals handle professional matters.

And tell the cafeteria's connections to get lost!

When Chen Mo first saw Liao Feng's investment plan, he already had a rough idea in his mind. Manager Liao's target was the hospital, and all these public welfare projects and the like were just excuses.

The focus is on the hospital cafeteria.

One of the most complained about issues is that the cafeteria stops serving food after 7 PM and the inflated prices, which greatly dissatisfied many patients, especially the staff.

This resulted in the pretext of having a 24-hour restaurant, with special attention to nighttime inspections.

Chen Mo could only analyze this much, which was why he thought from the beginning that the market research was just for show.

Because the target was set the day the investment was planned.

Chen Mo didn't dwell much on management issues, choosing to focus on his own dishes instead.

The current menu: braised pork buns, noodles, mapo tofu.

At least one more meat dish is needed, Chen Mo thought as he lay on his small bed—what is the hospital lacking?

I don't know either, but when visiting patients, people always say you need to replenish your strength.

So, what is the best thing for replenishing strength?

It seems that when it comes to nourishing the body, people always mention chicken!

Of course, spicy diced chicken isn't exactly known for being a nourishing dish. Chen Mo quickly drove to a nearby place, bought a chicken, and tossed it into the food truck's input slot.

"Please, I need a dish that's both delicious and nourishing, quickly analyze it for me."

[Analyzing...]

[Given your personal requirements, the food truck provides you with a renowned dish from the Lu Cuisine repertoire. Please note, all famous recipes have advanced versions. You need to master the perfect level to unlock advanced versions. Would you like to receive this recipe?]

"Receive."

Without hesitation, he grabbed it!

[Providing you with the recipe for the Lu Cuisine famous dish, Braised Chicken.]

Chen Mo: ???

Braised Chicken Rice, isn't this just a roadside snack going for twenty yuan a serving? How did it become a famous Lu Cuisine dish?

Without saying more, he quickly looked it up on his phone for a long time. Chen Mo then realized that, although Braised Chicken Rice is indeed available everywhere, it truly is a famous Lu Cuisine dish originating from Jinan.

"Alright then."

Chen Mo felt a bit awkward, realizing that his understanding of cuisines surely needed some updating.

With the cuisine decided, the next step was to buy ingredients.

"Mu Mu, did you get the stuff?"

As soon as Chen Mo sent the message, Xiao Mu quickly replied, "Got them! It's a pass, along with some internal operating permits and such."

"Great. Could you help me ask at your dad's restaurant where I can buy young chickens? Roughly one kilogram each."

This is the recipe's description of the "chicken" ingredient. It seems to call for relatively small chickens, and although the specific breed isn't mentioned, it's probably best if they are as tender as possible.

"Oh, that's simple! I can just get them from the restaurant, hehe, how about a hundred, would that be enough?"

Chen Mo sent a text with six dots, "No, just take thirty for now. Ask how much they cost and I'll pay you."

"No need, we're practically family, no need for money!"

"If you won't take money, I can't take the ingredients!"

After a while, Mu Mu sent a thumbs-up emoji, indicating she was on her way to meet Brother Chen Mo at the unfinished building.

Yueyun Pavilion.

Mu Xin watched his daughter leave the restaurant with large bags in hand and get into the car. "She isn't even married yet, and she's already taking things from her maiden home to support someone else?"

Hou Yao stifled a laugh, "She got paid, so it's not really support."

"Paid?" Mu Xin took a deep breath, fearing he might have a stroke in anger. "I imported live Qingyuan chickens by air; I have to kill and process the chicken for him, and he only gives me 15 yuan per kilo, and that's considered payment?"

Fine, fine, my Yueyun Pavilion has become Chen Mo's ingredient supplier, and a non-profitable one at that?

Hou Yao just wanted to laugh, thinking if somehow they managed to make Boss Xiao Chen their live-in son-in-law, who would be in the red would be hard to say.

Speaking of which, Hou Yao nudged Mu Xin's arm, "How about we go and try it tonight? See what Boss Xiao Chen can make out of our Qingyuan chicken."

At Yueyun Pavilion, the White Cut Chicken dish is quite expensive.

Mu Xin nodded vigorously, "Sounds good!"

If Chen Mo dared to ruin his precious Qingyuan chicken, Mu Xin had already decided he'd punch him twice on the spot!

While it was still daytime, Chen Mo hurried to Huimin Hospital after meeting Mu Mu.

Of course, during the process, Mu Mu couldn't help praising the new food truck, and even made an unreasonable request to test drive it, which Chen Mo ruthlessly refused.

Unexpectedly, upon reaching Huimin Hospital and heading to the administrative building to complete the formalities, Chen Mo encountered no obstacles at all.

"You should coordinate with Qian Erniu, the cafeteria manager."

With the documents given by the administrative building, Chen Mo went to the cafeteria. As he passed the building's position sign, he noticed that the hospital director's name was Qian Tieniu.

It was meal time, and people in varied attires were queuing up at the cafeteria doorway waiting to get their meals.

Chen Mo stood on his tiptoes and glanced; outside the cafeteria was a heat preservation box with a transparent glass cover on top, containing six dishes inside.

Stir-fried shredded potatoes, zucchini scrambled eggs, braised eggplant, fish-flavored shredded pork, pork stew, and green beans stir-fried with pork.

The names sound pretty good, but in appearance, they were quite watery and couldn't be considered stir-fried dishes.

Coincidentally, a family member of a patient ordered a portion of stir-fried shredded potatoes, and Chen Mo clearly saw the card reader display the amount: 18 yuan.

Whoa, this is quite expensive!
