Siheyuan: Sending Shazhu into the call center, Yi Gu is useless

A young villager pointed to the fields and said, "Village Chief Chen, the water source in this field has suddenly become turbid, and the crops are starting to wither."

Chen Rufeng walked to the edge of the field and carefully observed the turbid water source. He immediately realized that this was because the problem of the drainage system upstream had not been completely resolved, causing sewage to flow into the fields again.

After hearing this, Chen's mother frowned and asked, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Mom, we don't want you to worry." Chen Shulin explained, "Besides, we are also trying to find a way to solve this problem."

"Solve the problem? How can you three just silently bear it without discussing it with your family?" Chen's mother's tone was a little stern. "Tell me, what is going on with 'Green Home'?"

The three of them told their mother about the "Green Home" and how they carried out environmental protection activities in the village, which attracted the attention and participation of a large number of villagers and affected the business of the environmental protection center and the second brother and eldest sister.

"So that's how it is." After listening to this, Chen's mother pondered for a while, "Since they are unwilling to cooperate, we can only find a way ourselves."

"Mother, we have thought of many ways, but the effects are not very obvious at the moment." Chen Shuli said helplessly.

"Yes, we tried some publicity and activities, but we still couldn't turn the situation around," Chen Shulin added.

"Don't worry, there will always be a way to solve the problem." Chen's mother comforted, "Let me think about it and see if there is any other way."

After a few days, Chen's mother finally came up with a solution. She decided to visit several prestigious elders in the village and ask for their help. She believed that through the influence of the elders, she could make the villagers pay attention to the environmental protection center and the family business again.

"You three, come with me to visit the village elders," said Chen's mother. "We need to let them know our plight and seek their support."

Chen Rufeng, Chen Shulin and Chen Shuzhi all agreed, they knew this was a good idea.

So they went to the homes of several prestigious elders in the village and told them about their current difficulties and problems. After listening, the elders expressed their willingness to help them.

"Our village's environmental protection cause really requires everyone's joint efforts." An elder said, "You are doing a good job, and we will support you."

“Yes, we don’t want to see competition and conflict in the village either,” said another elder. “We will persuade the villagers to support your environmental protection center and business.”

With the help of the elders, the situation in the village gradually improved. The villagers began to pay attention to the activities of the environmental protection center again and were willing to support Chen Shulin and Chen Shuzhi's business.

At the same time, Chen Rufeng and his elder brother Chen Shusen also launched a series of new activities and projects at the Environmental Protection Center to attract more villagers to participate in environmental protection. They organized environmental protection lectures, volunteer village cleaning and other activities to improve the villagers' environmental awareness and participation.

During this process, the second brother Chen Shulin and the eldest sister Chen Shuli also actively participated in the work of the Environmental Protection Center and contributed their own strength to the environmental protection cause.

Chen Shulin has been feeling uneasy lately, always thinking that something bad will happen to the restaurant that Chen Rufeng bought. Although everything seems normal at the moment, he has a premonition that something bad is about to happen.

"Rufeng, do you feel that there is something wrong with the restaurant business recently?" One night, Chen Shulin finally couldn't help but ask.

Chen Rufeng frowned: "What's wrong, second brother? What do you think is wrong?"

"I can't explain it, I just feel uneasy." Chen Shulin said seriously, "We have been encountering problems frequently recently. First there was competition from Green Home, and now there are a lot of rumors in the village."

"Rumors?" Chen Rufeng looked at his second brother in confusion, "What did you hear?"

Chen Shulin hesitated for a moment, but still spoke out: "I heard that some people said that the ingredients in our restaurant are not fresh, and some villagers even began to doubt our hygiene conditions."

"This is impossible!" Chen Rufeng suddenly became nervous. "Our ingredients are delivered fresh every day, and the hygiene inspection is also very strict. How could there be such a rumor?"

"Rufeng, sometimes the rumors in the village are groundless, but we can't ignore them." Chen Shulin said earnestly, "We must take action to prove that there is nothing wrong with our restaurant."

Chen Rufeng nodded, knowing that his second brother was right and that he should not take it lightly. So the two brothers decided to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the restaurant overnight to ensure that all the ingredients and hygiene were in good condition.

That night, Chen Rufeng and Chen Shulin took flashlights and checked every corner of the restaurant, from the kitchen to the storage room, to the dining area, and even the garbage disposal area in the backyard. The inspection results showed that everything was normal, the ingredients were fresh, and the hygiene was good.

"It seems that this rumor is really groundless." Chen Rufeng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Even so, we can't take it lightly," Chen Shulin reminded. "We still need to do more work to prove to the villagers that our restaurant is safe."

"Brother, you are right." Chen Rufeng thought for a while, "We can organize an open demonstration of food procurement and cooking process and invite villagers to visit, so that they can see with their own eyes that our ingredients are fresh and meet hygiene standards."

"Good idea!" Chen Shulin agreed. "This will not only dispel the villagers' doubts, but also enhance their trust in our restaurant."

A few days later, Chen Rufeng and Chen Shulin organized a public demonstration of food procurement and cooking process, and invited village elders, village representatives, and volunteers from the Environmental Protection Center to watch.

At the exhibition, Chen Rufeng personally led everyone to visit the restaurant's food procurement process, from selecting fresh vegetables and meat in the market, to transporting them back to the restaurant, to washing, cutting, and cooking each step, all of which were shown to everyone. Seeing that the restaurant's ingredients were fresh and the cooking process was clean and hygienic, the villagers expressed their approval and reassurance.

"Your restaurants are so particular!" said a villager. "I didn't know that before."

"Yes, now we can come to your house for dinner without worry." Another villager also said with a smile.

Chen Rufeng felt extremely relieved after hearing this. He knew that this public display not only dispelled the villagers' doubts, but also strengthened their trust in the restaurant.
