Siheyuan: Tanjia Cuisine He Daqing, destroying Yi Zhonghai

"Yuzhu, don't be afraid of failure." He Daqing stopped what he was doing and patted He Yuzhu on the shoulder. "As long as we work hard, the guests will be able to feel our sincerity and dedication. Success is not something that can be achieved overnight. We need to keep working hard."

He Yuzhu nodded, his heart full of strength. He knew that the master was right, success requires time and patience. Although their restaurant has just started, as long as they persist, there will be good results.

On the day of the trial operation, the courtyard was full of people. Neighbors came to support the restaurant. The courtyard was filled with tables and chairs, and it was very lively. He Daqing and He Yuzhu were very busy, but their hearts were full of joy and a sense of accomplishment. Every dish was appreciated by the guests. He Yuzhu felt very satisfied when he saw the satisfied smiles of the guests.

"Master, we succeeded!" He Yuzhu said excitedly to He Daqing.

"This is just the beginning, there is still a long way to go in the future." He Daqing replied with a smile, his eyes full of hope.

As the restaurant gradually got on track, He Daqing and He Yuzhu's lives gradually stabilized. They were busy in the kitchen every day, constantly improving the dishes and the quality of service. He Daqing knew that his skills had finally found an opportunity to be passed on, and He Yuzhu also continued to grow in the process and gradually became a real chef.

As the days passed in the courtyard, He Daqing and He Yuzhu's restaurant gradually became famous, and more and more customers came to patronize it. He Daqing looked at the busy kitchen and the satisfied smiling faces, and his heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment. However, he also understood that to really become bigger and stronger, it was not enough to just operate in the courtyard. He began to consider a bold plan - to open a larger restaurant in the city center.

One night, He Daqing was sitting on a bamboo chair in the yard, looking at the starry sky, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. He Yuzhu noticed his master's worries, walked up to him, and asked with concern: "Master, what are you thinking about?"

He Daqing slowly came back to his senses, pondered for a moment, and finally spoke: "Yuzhu, I'm wondering if we should take a bigger step. Open a restaurant in the city center and show our skills to more people."

He Yuzhu was excited and a little worried when he heard this: "Master, this is a big deal. It requires a lot of money and energy. Are we really ready?"

"Funding is a problem, but as long as we have confidence, there will always be a way." He Daqing said firmly, "We can't stop here. Only by constantly challenging ourselves can we make breakthroughs."

He Yuzhu looked at his master's determined eyes, and his doubts gradually dissipated. He understood that his master had made up his mind, and he must fully support him.

The next morning, He Daqing and He Yuzhu began to prepare for the new hotel. They visited many shops in the city center and checked different locations and rental conditions. They carefully considered every detail and did not dare to be careless.

"Master, although the rent here is high, the location is excellent and the customer flow is large." He Yuzhu pointed to a shop in a busy area and said, "We can consider this place."

He Daqing nodded, and was a little shaken in his heart: "Yes, this place is indeed good. However, we still have a funding gap, and we need to find a way to raise it."

In order to raise funds, He Daqing and He Yuzhu tried every possible way. They found several old friends, hoping to get some investment, and also planned to launch some special activities in the Siheyuan restaurant to attract more customers and increase revenue.

One night, the restaurant in the courtyard was particularly lively. He Daqing and He Yuzhu introduced a new dish, Kung Pao Chicken. This dish was delicious and well received by the guests. The restaurant was packed with people, and everyone was tasting the delicious dishes and praising them highly.

"Master, our sales today hit a new high!" He Yuzhu said happily, "It seems that everyone likes our new dishes very much."

"This is just the beginning." He Daqing said with a smile, "We need to keep working hard and constantly introduce new dishes to attract more customers."

As time went by, He Daqing and He Yuzhu finally raised enough funds. They rented a shop in the city center and began to renovate and decorate. The new restaurant was named "Old Beijing Taste". He Daqing hoped that through this name, more people would understand and taste the traditional food of Beijing.

During the renovation period, He Daqing and He Yuzhu were busy on the construction site almost every day. They personally supervised the progress of the renovation to ensure that every detail achieved the best effect. He Yuzhu looked at the hotel taking shape day by day, and his heart was full of expectations and hope.

"Master, our restaurant is about to open." He Yuzhu said, with excitement shining in his eyes.

"Yes, this will be our new starting point." He Daqing said with emotion, "I hope our efforts will not be in vain."

Finally, the decoration of the restaurant was completed. On the opening day, He Daqing and He Yuzhu arrived at the restaurant early to welcome the first batch of guests. They were dressed in neat chef uniforms, full of energy, waiting for the moment to open the door.

"Master, are you nervous?" He Yuzhu asked, with a hint of nervousness and excitement in his tone.

"I am a little nervous, but more excited," He Daqing said with a smile, "This is a new journey, and we must take every step carefully."

As the door opened, the first batch of guests filed in. He Daqing and He Yuzhu were busy welcoming the guests, introducing the menu, and cooking each dish themselves. The restaurant was filled with laughter and the guests praised the dishes.

"This Kung Pao Chicken is absolutely amazing!" a customer praised, "It has an authentic taste and rich texture."

He Daqing was filled with joy and satisfaction when he heard the compliments from the guests. He knew that his efforts were not in vain, and He Yuzhu also continued to grow in the process and became a chef who could stand on his own.

The hotel's business is booming, and He Daqing and He Yuzhu's days are becoming more fulfilling. However, as the number of customers increases, the hotel's operating costs are also rising. He Daqing realizes that if he wants to keep the hotel competitive, he must make some improvements and expansions. However, all this requires more funds.

One evening, He Daqing was sitting in the hotel office with a frown on his face. He Yuzhu walked in and saw the master's expression. He asked with concern, "Master, what are you worried about?"

"Yuzhu, I'm thinking that our hotel needs to expand, but the funding issue has always troubled me." He Daqing sighed, "If we can find a suitable investor, perhaps our pressure will be less."
