Da'an's best son-in-law

The shopkeeper of the restaurant is indeed quite forceful in his work. Even if the restaurant is very popular now, Ye Chen ordered these dozen dishes without wasting any time. After a while, the door of the private room was pushed open, and the servants lined up. The team brought in all kinds of dishes.

"Hey, you came up together?" Ye Chen was a little surprised.

The types of dishes are different, and the heat is naturally different, so in the past, he has been accustomed to serving dishes in turns. Often when this dish is served, the previous dish is already cold.

It was his first experience to serve all the dozen or so dishes he ordered in one go like this.

The two little girls, Xiao Xing and Lian'er, looked at the boys opening the insulated food boxes, and the dazzling array of dishes were brought to the table one by one. They were excited and a little stunned.

Xiao Xing couldn't help but murmured: "My uncle usually doesn't eat well. What happened today? Can I finish it after ordering so much?"

"What do you know?" A look on Lian'er's face said, "You really don't know anything." "This is the first time for my uncle and the young lady to go out to eat. Even if he doesn't eat, he still has to put a lot of food on the table. What is this? It’s grand!”

Listening to the discussion between the two girls next to him, Ye Chen felt a little confused about whether to laugh or cry.

Since coming to the Wei family, he really hasn't had any big pursuits in food. Lian'er and Xiao Xing are both good at cooking. Besides, he lived alone in his previous life and made do with what he ate.

But when it came to ordering all of them today, he had other plans.

"Miss, uncle, the dishes are all here. You can enjoy it slowly. If you have any orders, please call me. I'll be waiting outside."

"I know, go ahead and do your work." Ye Chen nodded and waved.

Looking at the dishes on the table with different colors but all exuding different aromas, Ye Chen moved his index finger.

Standing up, Ye Chen first brought over the three dishes ordered by Wei Yanran and placed them in front of Wei Yanran. Although the table was full of delicacies, Wei Yanran had a light taste and disliked greasy food.

"Madam, let's try their craftsmanship first," Ye Chen said as he took the last plate of stir-fried gardenias and put them into a bowl for Wei Yanran.

"Do you have any plans, husband?" Wei Yanran took a brief taste and said.

Lian'er and Xiao Xing didn't care so much. When they saw Wei Yanran moving the chopsticks, Ye Chen didn't move. Even though his stomach was already rumbled with hunger, he didn't dare to do it. He could only look at the richness of the table.

Ye Chen had a very good relationship with them on weekdays, and he didn't treat them like servants, but the hierarchy was orderly. Even if his uncle didn't move his chopsticks, they could only wait obediently.

"My lady is indeed as smart as ice and snow!" Ye Chen gave Wei Yanran a thumbs up and said with a smile.

After ordering all the signature dishes here, Ye Chen did have his own plans, but he still had to think about more specific ideas.

Turning around, he saw two little girls looking at him eagerly. Only then did Ye Chen react and quickly put the chopsticks into his bowl at will, "You two, don't wait any longer. From this afternoon to now You must have been starving for a long time, eat, eat.”

"My uncle still feels sorry for us."

"Yes, my uncle is the best."

After praising Ye Chen hurriedly, Lian'er and Xiao Xing put all their energy into the dishes on the table and started eating them quickly.

Smiling as he watched the two people devouring food next to him, and pouring himself a small glass of white wine, Ye Chen noticed Wei Yanran next to him staring at him.

"Would you like some, madam?" Ye Chen raised the wine bottle in his hand, shook it, and asked.

As he asked this question, Ye Chen didn't think that Wei Yanran would be too interested in alcohol.

In the Wei family's situation, Wei Yanran had always maintained restraint and sobriety regarding her own demands. Ye Chen had never seen the former showing any signs of relaxation and indulgence.

The next moment, under Ye Chen's shocked eyes, a pair of white hands pushed a small wine cup in front of Ye Chen.

"How come I haven't seen my husband drinking on weekdays?" Wei Yanran said softly.

"Hai, I have nothing to do when I'm at Ye's house. I just pour myself some wine." Ye Chen hesitated and then confirmed with some surprise: "My lady really wants to drink."

Wei Yanran looked as usual and nodded calmly, "Yeah."

"Oh, don't make such a fuss, uncle," Lian'er said vaguely while biting the duck leg in her mouth.

"There have been a lot of things going on in the family recently, so the young lady has just given up drinking. On normal days, the young lady would always have a drink after returning home."

According to what Lian'er said, Wei Yanran probably stopped drinking after Ye Chen married into the Wei family.

"What are your plans? My husband hasn't told Yanran yet." Wei Yanran picked up the wine glass in her hand and took a sip, her eyes brightening slightly.

"Madam, what do you think of this restaurant?" Ye Chen picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth and said.

"The Wei family's industry is mainly in silk. As for restaurants and pawnshops, it's not the main one."

What Wei Yanran said is true. The Wei family's ability to make a fortune and become a giant in the business community of Jizhou City mainly relies on the silk industry, which is also the foundation of the Wei family.

However, in addition to these industries, small industries such as restaurants and pawnshops have also developed somewhat.

After picking up the wine glass and taking a sip, Ye Chen continued: "Then who from the Wei family is in charge of the business of these restaurants and inns?"

Wei Yanran was a little surprised by the question raised by Ye Chen, and immediately said: "It's just some stewards who are in charge. There is no one in charge of the Wei family."

"That's it," Ye Chen said clearly.

Just like Liyue Village, which Wei Yanran was responsible for, everyone in the Wei family focused their main attention and energy on the silk industry, and no one paid much attention to these other small industries.

"What do you think of this restaurant business, husband?"

Wei Yanran was indeed very quick-thinking. Ye Chen didn't need to finish what he said. With his questions, he was able to come up with some of his plans.

"My lady is right," Ye Chen said.

"We cannot say that the silk development of the Wei family has reached its peak. It is already quite prosperous. Although there is still room for development, it is already very limited."

“If we want to gain a long-term foothold, we must explore other industries and fields.”

What Ye Chen said is actually the principle of not putting eggs in the same basket. If you want to develop, you cannot live in your old business. This is the truth that things must turn to the extreme, and prosperity must decline. If you don't take the initiative to seek change, you will only be eliminated.

"Since no one is mainly responsible for management, we can apply to seize the management rights of other businesses such as restaurants."

Wei Yanran's jade fingers tapped gently on the table, her pretty face slightly condensed, as if she was considering and digesting the ideas put forward by Ye Chen.
