Chapter 33 Branch Opening
"Brother Zhiheng, what did Grandpa Zhou tell you just now?"

"Grandpa Zhou is saying that the few of them may have a bad reputation. They didn't have a job before, and a few young people are together, so it's inevitable that they will be a little bit talkative."

"It seems that you understand very well!"

After a moment of silence, "When we were in Tangshan, some people thought we orphans were pitiful at the beginning. But gradually, we became gangsters. People say that it's just nonsense from some boring people. Why should I care? "Speaking of the past, Li Zhiheng felt a little sad.

Ye Hui never knew that Li Zhiheng had such a scar in his heart.Yes, such a group of children who are loved by their parents have undergone tremendous changes, have no comfort, and have no guarantee of life. At the same time, they have to endure the ensuing white eyes and disgust.

After the disaster, all kinds of ugliness in human nature began to be revealed for a new life.For helpless children like them, it may be difficult to get food, right? !This will inevitably lead to some psychological problems in his heart.

"Brother Zhiheng, a brave man is not afraid of what others say. As long as we act righteously and do well, why should we care about those people's bad words? After all, there are still many good people in the world, just like Grandma Huang and Uncle Fang Hua." Ye Hui looked at it seriously. Li Zhiheng.She understood that it was impossible for Li Zhiheng not to care in his heart. How could he completely ignore everything he said before?But it doesn't matter what you say.

Li Zhiheng was a little annoyed when his emotions were exposed.Looking into Ye Hui's bright eyes, she knew that she was comforting herself.He patted Ye Hui's head and said nothing.

Li Zhiheng's silence made Ye Hui feel uneasy.Encountered great changes, people's psychology will be affected, even distorted.What's more, Li Zhiheng went through such a painful period.Even if my heart is full of gratitude, it is inevitable that there will be a corner that is dark because of the ugliness of human nature I have seen.It seems that he will slowly dispel the haze in his heart.

Several people studied in the hot pot restaurant for two days.Lu Mingbin and Zhu Zhen learned various ways of eating from Liu Gen.Fortunately, these eating methods are simple, although the time is short, they have learned about the same.

Lu Mingxu kept accounts with Shen Sanxue. After all, Li Zhiheng was alone, so he couldn't go there every day.

In the afternoon, they will come to tidy up the branch and prepare for the opening tomorrow. Ye Hui and the others will go to the branch first.All those vegetables, grains, meat and eggs were taken out from the space and piled up in that storage room.

Almost as soon as it was done, they arrived.

Seeing the room full of food and vegetables, several people's eyes widened.

"W-Where did you get this?" Huang Meili's tongue was a little knotted.

"Why eat so much, how much does it cost!" Chen Ling also sighed.

"Of course I bought it." Lu Mingxu interrupted, "But it's really fresh! Where did you buy it?"

"Countryside! My brother went to buy it early, it's cheap." Ye Hui had already thought up the excuse, "Well, everyone, hurry up, those soups and noodles are all ready."

"That's right, Zhu Zhen, you and I can get rid of the meat first. Meili and Miss Lingzi, choose your dishes." Lu Mingbin assigned tasks to everyone, and everyone immediately became busy.

"Yezi, brother Mingxu, I got the sign back!" At this moment, Li Zhiheng just came back and shouted at the door.

Ye Hui and Lu Mingxu both walked out quickly.

Li Zhiheng brought the sign back with a tricycle.The signboard is very simple, just an iron frame covered with something like oilcloth, with the name of the shop written in lacquer on it.

"Is this the signboard?" Ye Hui was a little disappointed.I know that the signboard at this time will not be very good, but this is a bit too rudimentary, right? !

"Don't be picky." Li Zhiheng pinched Ye Hui's nose, "This is not bad. The oilcloth the boss gave us is the best, and the paint is also the strongest. Don't worry about it being washed off."

"Come on, Zhiheng, carry him over there, let's hang him up." Lu Mingxu commanded Li Zhiheng.

Ye Hui saw that the two of them were really struggling, "Why don't I ask brother Mingbin to help?"

"No, Ye Zi, you go and move a chair."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Ye Hui quickly ran into the room and moved a chair out.

Li Zhiheng and Lu Mingxu hung up the signboard together, and Ye Hui would pass hammers and nails from below from time to time.

After the signboard was hung up, Ye Hui and Li Zhiheng looked at each other and smiled while standing in front of the door looking at the brand new signboard.This is their first branch, after that, they will have a second, third, fourth...

On the day before the store opened, they were busy until very late.Not only did they prepare a lot of semi-finished products for eating, but also cooked the broth, Huang Meili and Chen Ling also cleaned the store inside and out, making the whole store look brand new.

Although everyone was so tired that they wanted to get down on the ground, they all had smiles on their faces.Indeed, work is sometimes a stimulant for everyone, because with work, they realize their own value.

It was agreed to open at ten o'clock the next day, and Li Zhiheng sent everyone back to sleep.Get a good rest tonight so you can deal with the busyness of tomorrow.

Back at the apartment, Ye Hui was also exhausted.Although she didn't do much today, she was so tired that she wanted to climb onto the bed right away at her age.Nesting on the sofa, I don't want to move anymore.

Li Zhiheng looked at the tired and lazy Ye Hui, and quickly fetched water to scrub Ye Hui, so he probably fell asleep after a while.

Seeing that Li Zhiheng had to take care of herself after a busy day, Ye Hui couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.He took the towel from Li Zhiheng's hand, "Brother Zhiheng, I'll do it myself. Well, you've been busy all day, let's take a break."

"It's okay, I'm not tired. Wash it up, you look listless, you might just lie here and fall asleep." Li Zhiheng took the towel from Ye Hui again and scrubbed her.

Ye Hui had to let him take care of herself.Li Zhiheng took care of Ye Hui and washed himself before going to bed.

Waking up early the next day, the two of them just ate some breakfast and went to the branch.I thought they were the first ones, but I didn't expect that Lu Mingxu, Lu Mingbin and Huang Meili had already arrived and were cleaning the store again.

"Why did you come so early? I thought we were the first." Li Zhiheng laughed.

"It's all my brother, he must have pulled me out! Huh!" Lu Mingbin stretched, "I haven't woken up yet!"

"Okay, you!" Lu Mingxu made a gesture to hit Ming Bin, but he dodged it first.

"We want to see what we haven't prepared earlier, and prepare it in advance. Besides, if there are many people coming today, the food should be prepared early." Huang Meili said with some concern, and picked up the food in her hand again. cloth to wipe the tables and chairs.

Chen Ling and Zhu Zhen also came after a while.

Grandpa Zhou came late, strolling over slowly, with a cloth bag in his hand.

"Uncle Zhou, you always hold your breath, and you're only here now." Chen Ling complained a little.

"Hehe, why did I come so early? Don't worry, just because of the food in the shop, everyone will definitely come to join us!" Grandpa Zhou said with a smile.

"Oh, it's just that you're always so comfortable, looking beautiful and nervous, I guess she wiped the tables, chairs and benches before the guests come." Lu Mingxu interjected.

Ye Hui looked back, no, Huang Meili was still wiping there!Ye Hui walked over and took the rag from Huang Meili's hand, "Sister Meili, are you a little nervous? The tables and chairs are clean enough, you don't need to wipe them anymore."

Huang Meili's face was full of worry, "Xiaohui, I'm just nervous. What if the meeting opens and no one comes..."

Before she finished speaking, Chen Ling covered her mouth with displeasure, "Beautiful, stop talking nonsense, on the opening day, you are still so outspoken!"

Huang Meili was even a little frightened.Ye Hui smiled and took Huang Meili's hand, "Miss Meili, don't worry. So many people in our hot pot restaurant know about it, and they have long been looking forward to our opening a branch. Today, many old customers around have said that Come back to join us. Besides, I discussed it with Brother Zhiheng. It will open today, and all customers will get a [-]% discount, so there will definitely be many people coming!"

"What? [-]% off?" Lu Mingxu exclaimed when he heard the words, "Zhiheng, are you crazy? We won't pay for [-]% off?!"

"Yeah, you guys dare to think too much, don't you?!" Chen Ling also looked unbelievable.

In fact, they don't know that these ingredients are all produced in Ye Hui's space, and there is no cost at all, so even if they get a [-]% discount, they are still making money.

"Everyone, don't worry, just listen to what Zhiheng has to say." Grandpa Zhou interrupted everyone's discussion.

"Don't worry, everyone, we pay attention to small profits but high sales. Although the price is cheaper, it can attract more people to taste our food. Isn't it attracting more customers for us? This will also develop new customer groups." Li Zhiheng explained.

"But [-]% off, do we have small profits?" Chen Ling still couldn't accept Li Zhiheng's statement.

"Hey, forget it, maybe it will attract new customers as Zhiheng said. It's getting late, let's hang up the firecrackers. Zhiheng, where are the firecrackers?" Lu Mingxu said warmly.

With this question, Li Zhiheng was stunned for a moment, yes, firecrackers!
Seeing that Li Zhiheng ignored him, Lu Mingbin raised his voice: "Zhiheng, where are the firecrackers? You didn't buy them, did you?"

"I, forgot, forgot to buy firecrackers!" Li Zhiheng said angrily.

This time, everyone panicked.

Lu Mingxu rushed outside, not forgetting to say: "I'll go buy it right away!"

"Hey!" Grandpa Zhou stopped Lu Mingxu, "Why did you forget me? I have already prepared for you. You young people are not thorough enough."

Grandpa Zhou took out a bunch of firecrackers from his cloth bag.

"Oh! Uncle Zhou, we are all so nervous, you should have brought it out earlier." Chen Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Zhiheng and Lu Mingxu quickly hung up the firecrackers.

At ten o'clock, Li Zhiheng lit the firecrackers himself.Amidst the sound of crackling firecrackers, the first branch of the hot pot restaurant officially opened!
It's Saturday, happy weekend everyone! ! ! ! ! !
