Chapter 81 - Welcome back! (1/2)
After Wang Ming finished at Tonsheng, he went back to the restaurant to clean up everything. The meat he had ordered for the night prior were in boxes at the floor in the restaurant. They hadn't gone bad yet, but he couldn't possibly sell it to customers, so he asked someone to take it away and giving it away to an animal shelter.
He then slept. He felt his body craved it. Even though Wang Ming has a powerful body, he couldn't ignore the fact that his body needs enough sleep. He slept like a stone until he awoke a little before 2 am. Thankfully, he got no more dreams, he still remembers the dream he had about Lang Lin, Fu Ya and Qiao Meng.
Waking up, Wang Ming started the same usual procedure to make the food, though this time he didn't feel the same motivation and drive he had felt before all this happened. He's getting bored by making the same dish day and day out. He realized he needed to find another chef to cook at this restaurant. He needed to do something new, something different.
The reason he didn't want to get another chef prior is that he doesn't want anyone else to get their hands on his recipe, it needs to be someone he trusts, a person like that isn't easy to find. His best bet would be to ask Uncle Hou about it, since he has been in the game for so long, not only this but he has multiple famous restaurants he must know how and who to hire. Though he would call him later as it was still only 2.30am.
The time ticked slowly this morning, Wang Ming wanted to do something else, but he pushed through. Even though he didn't want to make braised pork belly at this moment, it's still the dish that made him rich. He also owes it to all the people that's going to come tomorrow to eat at his restaurant.
Soon the clock hit 8am, Wang Ming hadn't slept this time during the night, instead he was strategizing. The only thing he needs now is funds. He had multiple ideas on how to make a lot of money, just sadly not enough money. His best bet for now would be to open up more restaurants, which would spread his reputation and also earn him more money.
Though Wang Ming wasn't sure what type of restaurant, he wanted to open yet. He had two ideas one is to open other restaurants that have the same menu but would have their own specialities or have all the restaurants only sell one specialized dish.
Like how his restaurant now had one dish only the braised pork belly, the other restaurants he would open would have their own dish. Wang Ming thought it would be an amusing approach, as he hadn't heard about anyone doing it like this. Usually all restaurants under one franchise will have the same menu with some specialities.
Though not everyone has the same capabilities like him, Wang Ming's sure that he could make more dishes like the braised pork belly with enough time. Though for now he needs more money.
After Wang Ming put the last batch of pork belly in the heating cabinet, Gao Xingjuan arrived. Seeing Wang Ming, she hesitated before saying.
”Good morning, Wang Ming! I'm sorry that I'm late on my first ay! I got stuck in traffic.”
”Don't worry you're not late you're still 2 minutes ahead now change your clothes in the locker room and prepare to open the doors!”
Wang Ming, then suddenly the door open again. Looking at the door, Wang Ming saw Louzheng with his nurse came into his restaurant, Louzheng's face was red with anger, but his eyes looked like he was about to cry.
”Wang Ming, how could you do this to me?”
He did not understand what Louzheng meant. He had done nothing to Louzheng, nothing that made him feel guilty.
”What do you mean, Louzheng? We are brother's, good friends. I would do nothing to hurt you.”
