The Culinary Tycoon

Jiabao's house is at the innermost part of the alley, bypassing a yard in front and entering through a small door on the side.

After entering, there is a narrow yard inside, about seven or eight square meters. The house has two rooms, one is the kitchen, and the other room has two beds built with bricks, separated by a curtain in the middle.

Yu Qingze took a look, and found that the orientation of this house was different from that of other houses in this alley, and it felt more like the original west wing or firewood house in a courtyard.Looking at the wall in front of the room that was only about two meters away from the door, Yu Qingze felt that it should be separated from a courtyard.

Jiabao took out a bench from the room, wiped it clean, arranged it, and said with some embarrassment: "Boss Yu, Brother Chang Le, you sit down. The house is narrow, so it's better to sit here in a spacious place. I'll pour water for you."

Yu Qingze held him back and said, "You don't need to pour water, we are just a little worried that those little gangsters will trouble you again, we should go back, you should pay attention to yourself, if the little gangsters come, don't open the door, you know ?”

Jiabao nodded and said, "I know, thank you for sending me back."

Yu Qingze patted him on the shoulder and went back with Chang Le.

After closing the stall the next day, Yu Qingze and Chang Le sent Jiabao back together, and brought him some dishes from the food stall for him to cook.

Yesterday they saw the boy buying steamed buns, so they guessed that he must eat steamed buns every night, and then saved the money to pay off the debts, and then they were afraid that they would find out, so they paid ten cents from Yu Qingze every day, pretending to have a good meal look.

Alas, this child...

When they walked to the alley where the little gangsters blocked Jiabao yesterday, they unexpectedly ran into those two gangsters again.

Seeing Yu Qingze and Chang Le with Jiabao, the two gangsters gave Jiabao a hard look, and walked away slowly.

Yu Qingze frowned. It seems that their parents didn't educate them well.

On the third day, they ran into those two again.

On the fourth day, the situation changed. This time it was not two people, but four people.

The ruthless little bastard saw them coming out of the corner, and said to one of the other two who were carrying them: "Brother, it's them!"

"Oh? Really? I want to see who beats my good brother! Don't die!" The two men turned around, both in their 20s, and one of them had a stick in his mouth. Grass, ruffian look.

Yu Qingze and Chang Le were slightly taken aback when they saw those two, feeling a little familiar.

Chang Le recognized it first, and gestured: "Brother Yu, these two are from the people who robbed us before!"

Yu Qingze also recognized it now. He narrowed his eyes slightly, pulled Brother Le and Jia Bao behind him, picked up a big rock from the ground, and prepared to fight.

Chang Le also tightened his shoulder pole and got ready.In the past few days, just in case, he has been carrying a pole to send the family treasure.

The helpers recruited by the two gangsters over there were a little stunned when they saw that it was Yu Qingze and the others.

Another helper said to the person next to him: "Hey, isn't this the person the boss mentioned earlier who has a good relationship with the Cai Mansion? The one we robbed before?"

The 'big brother' nodded, spit out the grass roots in his mouth, and said: "Yeah. His grandpa, why is he so unlucky to meet them." He still wanted to show his prestige in front of the new younger brother, but this time Well, when you meet this person, how can you show off your prestige?Can only 'return with feathers'!

The person asked: "Then do you still want to go?"

The 'big brother' patted him on the head and said angrily: "What are you going to do? You go! The boss said that he is the benefactor of Cai's mansion. If he sees him in the future, he can't mess with them. He has to take a detour, and then he won't be able to afford it." Let's go!"

"That?"

"go!"

With that said, the two were ready to leave.

Seeing that the two elder brothers were about to leave, two gangsters who had just joined the gang at the age of seventeen or eighteen quickly stopped them and asked, "Brother, didn't you say you want to vent your anger on the younger brother? Why did you leave just like that?"

The 'big brother' scolded: "How did your grandpa mess with them?! Do you know who that tall man is?"

The two punks were dumbfounded, "Who? Isn't he just a food stall?"

The 'big brother' bent his index finger and middle finger, and knocked on their brains one by one, saying: "He is the benefactor of the Cai Mansion in the south of the city, beat him up, and then you can go and get out of prison!"

After saying that, the helpers hired by those two gangsters left, and when they passed by Yu Qingze and the others, they smiled flatteringly at Yu Qingze and said, "Hehehe, I misunderstood, misunderstood, and admitted the wrong person, hahaha... "

Yu Qingze, Chang Le: ...

"stop!"

"What, what's wrong?"

"Calculate!"

Just now he heard the conversation of several of them clearly. He didn't expect that the gangsters were so well informed, which is really great!

Saying that, Yu Qingze dropped the stone in his hand, rushed up and beat the two of them up.

Those two people had a guilty conscience, they didn't dare to fight Yu Qingze, and they didn't have Yu Qingze's skill, so they could only be beaten passively, and finally got beaten unilaterally, and then they fucked up.

The two little bastards were stunned when they saw that the helper they hired was so cowardly, and then they saw Yu Qingze walking towards them, and they quickly ran away with their tails between their legs.

The two little gangsters never expected that the owner of this food stall was too powerful to be messed with, let alone that Tian Jiabao actually knew him!

It's his grandfather's!

It seems that they can't take revenge for being beaten up by their family!

Jiabao didn't understand what was going on the whole time, when he saw the four people trying to block them, he was beaten away by Boss Yu in a short while.

There was a gleam of admiration in his eyes.

Boss Yu is amazing!

In the next few days, when they sent Jiabao home, they didn't see the two punks again.

On the other hand, in the past few days, besides the matter of Jiabao, Yu Qingze has another worry, which is not finding a shop.

He went out for a stroll every morning and again in the afternoon, and there were no more vacant shops on North Street.

He even wandered around South Street, and there was a store there that was barely suitable, but it was obviously not as good as North Street, so he didn't think about it, and was going to wait.

However, in the past few days, quite a few guests who had received presents in return at the old man's birthday banquet came to the food stall and ordered some dim sum, which was an extra gain.

This afternoon, he went out to wander around again, and saw that someone had already started to move things into the previously empty shop, which seemed to be a cloth business.

This shop is rented out, and there is only one empty shop left on North Street.

Yu Qingze was a little anxious.

"Huh, Boss Yu? What a coincidence, I ran into you here."

Yu Qingze turned his head and saw Housekeeper Zhao walking over with a subordinate carrying a lot of things.

"Hey, Steward Zhao, what a coincidence, are you out shopping?"

Butler Zhao said with a smile: "Yes. Boss Yu is this?"

Yu Qingze sighed and said, "I took a look at the shop, but I didn't see anything good."

Steward Zhao followed Yu Qingze's line of sight and asked, "Boss Yu wants to set up a shop?"

Yu Qingze shook his head and said, "I don't have enough money to run a shop now. I want to rent a shop to open a snack bar, but there are no suitable ones here. The only two shops are now rented out."

Steward Zhao glanced at it, and then said, "The shops here are not easy to find."

"That's right." Yu Qingze sighed.

"Isn't there another one?"

Yu Qingze shook his head and replied: "That one is not suitable, it is the same as this one, long and narrow, not suitable for a snack bar. I can only look for it again."

Butler Zhao asked again: "What kind of boss Yu is looking for?"

Yu Qingze replied: "The lighting is better, a square one is fine, and it doesn't need to be too big, it can fit fourteen or five tables. It's really hard to find."

Butler Zhao said with a smile: "This is North Street, of course it's difficult. Haven't you thought about going to South Street?"

Yu Qingze shook his head and said, "The flow of people over there is not so large. The main reason is that North Street is not close to the pier. There are many merchants, so the flow of passengers is large. I don't make much money from this snack, so I mainly rely on the flow of passengers to sell more, otherwise Can't make any money."

Steward Zhao nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Then we can only wait for a while."

Yu Qingze said helplessly: "Yes."

The two chatted for a few more words before parting.

Two days passed.

On this day, Boss Liu was waiting at the door early in the morning. When he saw Yu Qingze and the others coming, he hurried over and whispered to Yu Qingze, "Brother Yu, I heard that Mantangxiang restaurant is no longer open, and it is going to close in two days. Do you want to go and have a look, that shop is pretty good, but it’s a little bigger, probably about the same as mine.”

Hearing this, Yu Qingze immediately regained his energy, and hurriedly asked: "Really? Mantangxiang, is it the one next door to Wang Ji?"

Boss Liu nodded and said, "That's the one. If you're interested, go and have a look quickly, lest you get assigned by someone else later."

"Okay, okay! I'll go now, thank you brother!" Yu Qingze happily pushed the car into place, then talked to Brother Le and the others, and hurried over to Mantangxiang Restaurant.

Mantangxiang Restaurant is not open for business yet, only one door is open for people to come in and out.

"Is anyone there?" Yu Qingze knocked on the door outside.

"Hey, come, who is it, come in, in the kitchen!" a voice from inside answered loudly.

Yu Qingze entered the door and took a casual look in the hall, it was about the same age as Liu Ji's.

However, it was at this time, and there were not many people inside, and all the chairs in the hall were still upside down on the table and had not been put down.It seems that it is really not done.

He went into the kitchen again, and saw only two people in the kitchen, packing—cooking utensils?

"What's the matter with you?" A middle-aged man looked up and asked.

Yu Qingze came back to his senses and hurriedly asked, "Is the boss there?"

The middle-aged man replied: "I am. What can you do with me?"

Yu Qingze replied: "Oh, hello, boss. My surname is Yu, and I sell snacks over there. Are you ready to graduate?"

The middle-aged man took a look at Yu Qingze and said, "Oh, I know you, Boss Yu. Yes, we won't do it today, we are packing."

Hearing this, Yu Qingze was overjoyed and asked, "Boss, do you know if anyone will rent this shop in the future? Or, can you introduce me to the owner, I want to talk to him about renting the shop."

The middle-aged man asked: "Do you want to rent a shop?"

Yu Qingze nodded and said, "Yes."

The middle-aged spy sighed and said, "It's too late, someone has already rented it."

"Ah? Didn't you just decide to graduate?" Yu Qingze said in surprise.

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Yes. I just told the boss yesterday morning, and then someone came to see the shop in the afternoon."

Yu Qingze:!

He hurriedly said: "Then do you know that they have already paid the money and signed the contract?"

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "I signed it on the spot, and paid three months' rent at once."

Yu Qingze: ...

"... Boss, thank you." Yu Qingze went out dejectedly.

Alas, one step late.
