Chapter 1477 Opening for Business
It would take some time for the restaurant to be renovated and changed.
It would take at least ten days. It could only open for business after it passed the environment test.
However, Mengmeng and the others had already finished some trivial matters.
Mengmeng patted Chen Yang on the shoulder and said, “Young man, you’ve done a good job. You deserve a compliment.”
“Sister Meng, thank you for your compliment. It’s your turn, Sister Nao,” Chen Yang said with a smile.
Yue Xiaonao said, “Get lost.”
“Okay.”
Chen Yang happily left and ran to the Sci-Tech University.
He was still on a date with Ye Xiaomu.
Mengmeng, Li Muen, and Yue Xiaonao were about to go shopping.
Unexpectedly, Mengmeng got a call.
“Mengmeng, our club’s activity will be held in the square at eight o’clock.”
“Okay.”
Mengmeng responded and said to the girls next to her, “Our club is having an activity.”
They signed up for the same club. To be exact, one of the clubs that they signed up for was the same, the Rollerskate Association, which was quite interesting.
Every day, there would be people hanging around in the square.
But it was the first time Mengmeng and the girls attended a club activity.
Back in the dormitory, they took out their brand-new roller skates, which had never been used.
There was a hubbub of voices in the square. It turned out that not only one club was holding an event today.
From a distance, a large loudspeaker box could be seen. There were people from the dance club gathered there, and there were people playing badminton and taking a walk.
There were a lot of students who joined the Rollerskate Association, and many figures could be seen around the square.
Seniors were doing free skating slalom tricks.
When they graduated and left, there would be newcomers to replace them. This was the inheritance of the club.
But every year, there would be a few ones who were stunningly skilled at rollerskating.
Mengmeng and the others didn’t show off their skills here. They just played casually on the side and occasionally watched the dance of the dance club. There were many onlookers and cheers from time to time.
As a freshman, Mengmeng had just experienced the good days of college life.
A moment later, Chen Yang ran to the square.
He came to the girls.
“I have the publicity plan now.”
“Just do it then. Aren’t you also one of the bosses?” Mengmeng asked in confusion.
She felt that he didn’t need to discuss anything with them.
“Alright.”
Chen Yang said, “I’ve invited my Second Grandpa to work in the restaurant for a period. The chefs have also signed a contract. Recently, they have been studying the recipes for roasted ham and other delicacies…
“Have fun here. I’ll go back to the dormitory first.”
He didn’t stay long with Ye Xiaomu because he was busy with the restaurant’s affairs.
It could be said that he had put in a lot of effort.
“Mengmeng, so you can also rollerskate. That’s amazing.”
A few female students passed by and greeted Mengmeng.
As for the students, no one knew Mengmeng’s family background. They all treated her like an ordinary classmate.
This was also something that Mengmeng and the others were willing to see.
Chen Yang and Lv Zihan knew that Mengmeng was rich, but Chen Yang wouldn’t tell anyone about it. Lv Zihan wouldn’t say anything either since she was introverted.
As for Zheng Dan, she had just joined the Student Union and was usually busy with relevant affairs.
On this day, in the square under the night sky.
The rollerskate club was the most eye-catching, not because Mengmeng and the others were there, but because there were too many members.
The members had all kinds of falling postures, and many of the students were walking. Some young couples only cared about each other. They almost kissed each other, but they were knocked down by those who had just learned how to do a fancy trick.
There were also many unexpected situations.
This was what ordinary and fascinating college life was like.
Two weeks passed in a flash.
In the past two weeks, Chen Yang had spent a lot of money printing a lot of flyers. He reached out to a lot of students who were up to part-time jobs in the university group chats and hired them to distribute the flyers on the commercial street.
He also reached out to students from six other universities.
Many people knew that the original steak house at the entrance of the commercial pedestrian street was now going to be replaced by the Flying Hero Bagna Cauda.
Some people saw it and said that the decoration was very grand.
And the price was reasonable.
The ordinary kind of Bagna cauda cost 32 bucks. A portion was more than enough for two people and even three people.
There were also all kinds of different delicacies.
Many people were eager to have a try.
On this day.
“The inspection is over. We can open for business now.”
Chen Yang looked at the sign covered by the red gauze and smiled at Mengmeng, Yue Xiaonao, and Li Muen next to him.
“Congratulations, Boss Chen.” Li Muen joked with a smile.
“Haha, you’re the big bosses,” Chen Yang said. “I’ve planned it out. I’ll say that I’ve been hired as a part-time manager here. As for who the boss is, I won’t tell the others. You can be invisible tycoons at ease.”
As Chen Yang spoke, there was a strange look in his eyes.
“You seem to be up to something,” Mengmeng suddenly said.
“No, no, absolutely not.” Chen Yang continued, “We’ll also hire a few part-time students. I’ve told Zihan that she will work part-time here from six p.m. to ten p.m. every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Her salary will be 400 bucks a month. I’m afraid that she won’t take the money if I offer her too much.”
“Okay.”
Mengmeng thought for a moment and finally nodded.
Indeed, helping was a good thing, but going too far would not end up great.
Chen Yang would go to Lv Zihan to hire her. Since she would make some money on her own, there would be no problem with it.
“400 bucks? That’s too little.” Li Muen said, “She’s one of us anyway. You should double her salary and get her a bonus or something.”
“Dear boss, she will only work here three days a week. It’s definitely not appropriate to offer her that much.” Chen Yang smiled bitterly.
“Why would she only come here for three days?” Li Muen was stunned.
Chen Yang’s eyes flickered and he coughed lightly. “As students, we’re mainly studying. We can’t waste too much time because of part-time jobs, so I will ask Zihan to come and work three days a week.”
“Oh, you’re right.” Li Muen nodded.
Phew…
Chen Yang let out a long sigh.
Lv Zihan would come to the restaurant to work on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
However, he told Ye Xiaomu that he was the manager of this restaurant and would be there every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
He planned to give himself a day off on Sunday, otherwise, he would be too tensed up.
“If Ye Xiaomu comes over on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday…”
Chen Yang felt that he could totally deal with it, and he would think of an excuse when that happened.
She couldn’t just have Bagna cauda every day.
It was impossible for her to come to the commercial street to eat and shop every day,
Chen Yang seemed to be in a panic, but in fact, he had figured it out.
Chen Yang said, “Tomorrow will be the opening day. Bosses, will you be here to show your support?”
“We’ll come over and try the food tomorrow night,” Mengmeng said.
“If it can rule my appetite, the restaurant will definitely be a big hit,” Yue Xiaonao said.
In Room 301 that night.
“Ahh, I’m so tired!”
Zheng Dan staggered in and said, “I didn’t expect to be so busy after joining the Student Union.”
“Isn’t this your dream?” Yue Xiaonao lay on the bed and tilted her head to look at her. “No matter how busy you are, you have to hold on.”
“I’ll hold on. When I’m a sophomore, I won’t be so busy,” Zheng Dan replied.
When she was a sophomore, she would only need to deal with the main affairs. Some trivial things could be left to the freshmen, just like how she was being treated now.
“By the way, there is a restaurant called Flying Hero Bagna Cauda on the pedestrian street. It looks very nice. Shall we try it someday?” Zheng Dan said, even waving the flyer in her hand.
Lv Zihan, who was reading a book, put down the book and was about to say something.
That was Mengmeng’s restaurant.
After thinking for a while, Lv Zihan didn’t say anything. Since the girls didn’t say it, she should better stay silent.
“I, I’ll work part-time there after school every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday,” Lv Zihan said.
“What? You’ve already found a part-time job?” Zheng Dan was shocked, and her eyes were full of surprise. “Lv Zihan, I didn’t realize that you were so awesome. You found a part-time job yourself. Nice. It’s really inspiring.”
“It’s… Chen Yang introduced me to the job. He… he’s the manager there.”
“Pfft.” Zheng Dan almost choked on her saliva. “Representative Chen is actually working as a manager in a restaurant?
“This guy is amazing.”
Zheng Dan sat in a chair, took out her mobile phone, and sent a message to Chen Yang.
“Zheng Dan, be careful.” Yue Xiaonao said, “I find that you seem to be a little interested in Chen Yang.”
“I guess,” Zheng Dan said casually. “I don’t mind having an ambiguous relationship with our class representative.”
“He is a werewolf.” Mengmeng looked stunned.
“What is the werewolf?” Zheng Dan didn’t understand.
“I didn’t expect you to be interested in him.”
“Well… you guys don’t get it,” Zheng Dan said with a smile.
“I don’t think Representative Chen is interested in you,” Mengmeng said.
“The electric shock of romance happened in an instant. Maybe it will come at some time,” Zheng Dan said. “Especially soul communication and eye contact. Think about it, affectionate gaze, blowing a charming kiss, when our lips touch, well… that’s when the electric shock takes place.”
“Oh, my God.” Mengmeng looked helpless. “You’re incredible.”
After that, Mengmeng lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling with her long eyelashes flickering.
“Dating someone?”
She was lost in thought.
She imagined that her boyfriend was a faint figure in her mind, following her back to Mount New Moon.
Then, her dad came from the top of the mountain. He came, and he came running with a machete.
Buzz!
The image was broken by the machete light.
“No, I really can’t think of anyone who can defeat my dad.”
Mengmeng curled her lips.
It didn’t mean that Zhang Han was invincible in the whole world, and there were some people who were more powerful than him, but she didn’t know them.
At 9 a.m. the next day.
For the first time, Mengmeng, Yue Xiaonao, and Li Muen skipped class.
Chen Yang was used to it, even the substitute teacher was used to not having him in class.
Among a burst of cheers, the ribbon at the opening ceremony was cut.
The red gauze that covered the sign of the restaurant fell.
Flying Hero Bagna Cauda was officially established, and there was a publicity banner in front of the door.
For three days after the opening of the restaurant, all the customers would get a 50% discount.
Some people were watching the opening ceremony, and there were even a lot of them, but no one came to eat since it was only 9 o’clock in the morning.
“The first ten customers will get to draw a lottery. I’ve prepared some small gifts.”
Chen Yang pointed at a box on the stage on the first floor of the restaurant.
“I also want to draw a lottery.”
Li Muen’s interest was piqued.
“Please don’t, Boss Li. The gifts I’ve prepared are all small things. I’ll buy you some later,” Chen Yang said.
“But I want to…” Li Muen looked a little conflicted.
Swoosh!
Just at this moment, a noise startled Chen Yang.
“Sister Nao.” Chen Yang closed his eyes and said bitterly, “You’re so fast.”
While they were talking, Yue Xiaonao had already taken a prize box.
Inside the box was a gift.
“That’s interesting.”
Mengmeng also took a prize box.
“My turn.”
Li Muen did not beat around the bush. She simply took one.
“I’ll take one as well.”
Chen Yang threw all caution to the wind and took a prize box.
The four of them took the gift boxes, opened them, and found that they were all small gifts. After taking a few glances at them, the guys placed them on the counter.
At this time, there were nearly ten people in the restaurant, including the waiters, the busboys, the kitchen staff, and so on.
They were all previous staff of the steak house who chose to stay.
Chen Yang’s Second Grandpa was now in charge of the kitchen.
Chen Yang took Mengmeng and the other two to the kitchen on the third floor to have a look. The kitchen was very clean. Chen Yang’s Second Grandpa was wearing a brand new chef’s uniform and looking at the others.
“Wash it again. Make sure it’s clean.”
Second Grandpa Chen was meticulous.
“Grandpa, these are the shareholders, the big bosses.” Chen Yang introduced them to each other.
After the girls greeted Second Grandpa Chen, Li Muen asked, “By the way, if our business is booming, will we run out of our supply?”
“No, we won’t.”
Speaking of this, Second Grandpa Chen was in high spirits. “I didn’t expect that Yang could really run a restaurant. In our hometown, there are five ham processing factories, all of which supply materials to restaurants in various cities. The ham tastes very good. Some restaurants also serve Bagna cauda. But the seasoning our Flying Hero Bagna Cauda uses is unique and tastes very good. I have already informed three of the processing factories that they will provide us with ham. It will only take us a day and a half to drive there and get the goods.”
“By the way, we use rental cars to transport our goods now. The cost is relatively high.”
Before Chen Yang could finish his words, Li Muen said, “Don’t you still have a lot of funds left? You can buy two trucks directly. In the future, when we have branch restaurants or franchisees, it will be convenient for us to go back and forth between the restaurants with the trucks.”
“Really? Okay.” Chen Yang looked excited. “Then I’ll go and buy the trucks today. Haha, I can drive to my heart’s content. But it seems that I can’t a truck. I can only drive a passenger car. Let’s go and buy the trucks now. We will skip the following classes today. Plus the lunch break, we’ll make it back by the afternoon.”
“None of us will go with you. You need to get the trucks on your own,” Mengmeng snorted.
“Come on. I don’t dare to make the decision alone. Please come with me. We’ll be back soon,” Chen Yang said.
“Why don’t we go with him?” Li Muen thought for a moment and said, “Anyway, I don’t want to go to school in the morning.”
“Okay.”
Mengmeng nodded.
They walked out of the restaurant.
When they reached the first floor, Chen Yang looked at the waiters and said, “I haven’t trained you yet. You’re not allowed to chat in the hall. Go and clean up. There’re no customers in the morning, and you can rest in the back.”
“Okay.”
A few waiters walked to the back door.
Chen Yang took the initiative to say, “I’ll get us a taxi.”
“Let’s drive there. It’s too troublesome to take a taxi,” Yue Xiaonao said.
“But we don’t have a car.” Chen Yang was taken aback.
“Who said we don’t have a car?” Li Muen rolled her eyes at him with a smile. “Are you underestimating Sister Mengmeng’s power? Let’s go. We’ll show you.”
They walked to the opposite side of the road and walked into the community.
Chen Yang was a little stunned. “Do they really have a car?”
“This is unexpected. Do you guys own or rent a house here?
“Damn, if we keep going, we’ll arrive at the villa area.”
They walked into the villa area.
Chen Yang swallowed subconsciously.
He felt that he had underestimated their power.
