The old adjutant smiled but did not reply. He only helped Grandfather Ling to the dining table for breakfast.
The reason why the old adjutant did not object was simple. Grandfather Ling's body condition had improved recently and he could go out for a meal.
This was also the reason why Grandfather Ling did not go to Yuan Zhou's place for a meal. He was getting old and could not stand there for so long.
Most importantly, he had to complete Squad Leader Jia's unfinished task, which was to search for the relatives and friends of his comrades. As a result, he was too tired and fell sick.
As a result, his diet was strictly monitored. Now that he was feeling better, he wanted to go to Yuan Zhou's place for a meal.
Ling Hong rushed to Yuanzhou shop the moment he woke up. On the other side, someone had also woken up. This person was Wu Hai.
Wu Hai stood by his window and waited for Yuan Zhou to run past. Yuan Zhou was running seriously and greeting his neighbors from time to time.
"Good morning, Boss Yuan."
"Good morning, Boss Yuan. Working out again."
"Yuan, you're still young. You're running with so little clothes."
"Take care of your body, Boss Yuan. The flu has been quite serious recently."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Exercising will naturally make your body stronger. I won't be infected."
"Isn't that right? It's good to think about Boss Yuan all day long. Right, Boss Yuan? Our shop has a batch of good ingredients. Boss Yuan, you can come and eat when you have time."
Hearing this greeting, Yuan Zhou nodded to show that he heard it. These greetings were quite pleasing to the ear.
Greetings from the neighbors. In the skyscrapers, the 1101 next door was not even 1102, let alone the neighbors.
Many people treated Yuan Zhou to a meal, especially those who ran restaurants. They all felt that if they could treat Boss Yuan to a meal in their restaurant, they would definitely have a good New Year.
It was the same last year. Yuan Zhou only agreed to one or two restaurants. This year, the business of these two restaurants was exceptionally good. No one knew where the Koi attribute came from.
Of course, it was not hard to imagine that most people were concerned about whether Yuan Zhou's shop would be open for business during the New Year.
"Boss Yuan, are you still open for Chinese New Year?"
"Yeah. Will Boss Yuan be open this New Year?"
"If it's open, please let us know and we'll open it together. After all, we can't just leave Boss Yuan alone on Taoxi Road." Obviously, it was the shop owner who said that.
"That's right. If you open the door, we'll open it too. That way, Boss Yuan will be more lively."
"Yes, it's on. As usual, it won't be turned on at night. We only turn on the lights for meals," replied Yuan Zhou.
"That's fine. Then we'll also open our business on Taoxi Road until Chinese New Year's Eve this year." The shop owners answered one after another.
"Yeah, let's stay until the day of the thirtieth," another person agreed.
"Okay." Yuan Zhou nodded and slowly ran away.
The discussion behind him did not stop.
"Boss Yuan is really awesome to support a restaurant at such a young age." The shop owner who had just opened the restaurant couldn't help sighing with emotion.
"Yeah. Thanks to Boss Yuan, our business is still so good even though it's approaching the Chinese New Year. It's even increasing." It was also the shop owner who had just opened the restaurant.
"You're too inexperienced. Boss Yuan doesn't support a restaurant. He supports the flow of people in the entire area. Otherwise, how could we have so many customers?" The shop owner who had just opened the hardware shop said that. "Yeah.
You came here late and don't know what our Taoxi Road used to be like. It wasn't as lively as now. "It was also the old shop owner of this street who chimed in.
"Exactly. Thanks to Boss Yuan, our business can be so good. We all depend on Boss Yuan." It was the shop owner opposite Boss Yuan who often changed his shop sign.
"Exactly. Boss Yuan runs such a good business here. Previously, he said he had a suite in Taoxi Road, but he didn't say so. Now that you say he has a suite in Taoxi Road, it's really different." A middle-aged woman who passed by interrupted. "Exactly.
When I went to handle the business of the branch not long ago, the attitude of the government official was quite ordinary. But when I told him the head office was in Taoxi Road, that guy's eyes were full of envy. "Someone said.
The most valuable Chinese character in the past was "Demolish", but now it was "Taoxi Road Restaurant".
"I saw the gourmet city in front of us advertise that it's close to our Taoxi Road and Boss Yuan's restaurant." The new shop owner said proudly.
"That's for sure. The boss of the gourmet city offered so much money to invite Boss Yuan to be his head chef, but Boss Yuan didn't do it." The middle-aged woman put away the vegetable basket and gestured five fingers while saying with an exaggerated expression.
"What's the price?" The new shop owner looked at the middle-aged woman curiously.
Immediately, the middle-aged woman walked to them mysteriously and then started to narrate. She started from how Wu Yungui got to know Yuan Zhou and how Yuan Zhou refused Wu Yungui for the sake of the shops and neighbors in this street.
During that period, she didn't hesitate to praise Yuan Zhou generously. She said that he was young and promising and that he had the bearing of a grandmaster.
Her words were so vivid that even Yuan Zhou himself would probably listen to her with great interest. Her words were as wonderful as a play about three visits to the thatched cottage.
Of course, Yuan Zhou couldn't hear all that. He didn't stop running. At that time, he was running downstairs of Wuhai's restaurant.
"Yo." Wuhai raised his hand and greeted him.
"Are you coming down for a jog?" asked Yuan Zhou.
"No, no, no. I originally planned to do that, but I don't need to do that now." Wuhai shook his head and said.
"Oh." Hearing that, Yuan Zhou prepared to continue running.
"Don't you want to ask me why?" Wuhai stroked his small mustaches and revealed an expression of "ask me quickly".
"I'm not interested." Yuan Zhou said coldly.
"Er …" Wu Hai's hand paused for a moment. Then, he said, "I was going to ask you if you have dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve this year. After all, Zheng Jiawei and I are all alone this year. Therefore, I decided to come and spend the New Year with you."
"By the way, you don't need to thank me. I've always been so righteous," said Wuhai.
Wuhai said it in a serious and natural manner, as if it could cover up his purpose of coming here to freeload.
"Thank you, but no need." After saying that, Yuan Zhou directly ran away.
After all, Wuhai's usage of idioms was really unbearable for a good student like Yuan Zhou.
"Wait for me for the Spring Festival Eve." Wuhai shouted at the back of Yuan Zhou.
Yuan Zhou decisively pretended that he didn't hear it. He directly ran into the back alley and then went back to the restaurant to wash up.
Since it was almost the Spring Festival, Yuan Zhou recently had a habit of opening the door to prepare the ingredients for breakfast. But when he opened the door today, he saw two people standing at the door.
"Good morning, boss." Zhou Jia and Shin Min greeted him at the same time.
"Um. Morning." Yuan Zhou nodded calmly.
Zhou Jia and Shin Min looked at each other and then Zhou Jia said, "Boss, you said that today is the last day of work and you don't need anyone to work at night. So, I discussed with Shin Min and decided to come together today."
When saying that, Zhou Jia was a little perturbed. Even Shin Min beside her was a little nervous.
After all, Yuan Zhou asked them to stay in the afternoon, but they came early because they wanted to help more. Therefore, they were a little perturbed now.
In fact, if it was Yuan Zhou three or two years ago, they wouldn't be so perturbed. But now, Yuan Zhou was more and more like a grandmaster. So, they unconsciously felt a little ashamed of disobeying Yuan Zhou's words.
Even if they disobeyed their original intention to do more for the restaurant.
"Um. Okay." Yuan Zhou nodded and then turned around to return to the kitchen.
"Thank you, boss." Seeing that Yuan Zhou wasn't angry, the two immediately heaved a sigh of relief and stepped into the restaurant together.
After returning to the kitchen, Yuan Zhou didn't immediately start preparing the ingredients. Instead, he opened the drawer and took out two red envelopes. "Nowadays, it's popular to give employees who work for a whole year 13% of their salary. This is your salary for the 13th month."
While saying that, Yuan Zhou handed out two red envelopes.
