Chapter 74 – 74 Preparing a Branch Store

“`

At four o’clock in the early morning of the next day, Chen Yu habitually got up and went down to the first-floor restaurant.

However, today he did nothing except prepare the seasoning for the marinated foods, making them into spice packs and leaving them there.

Today, he was going to make a bold attempt!

Before long, Wang Qingshan hurried into the store.

“Master, you’re here so early!”

Chen Yu’s face showed helplessness, “Master Wang, how many times have I told you not to call me that.”

Wang Qingshan scratched his head somewhat embarrassingly, “Then what should I call you?”

“You are older than me, just calling me Little Chen will do!”

Wang Qingshan didn’t immediately agree but simply smiled, went straight to the cold room, and pulled out a cart of pig heads and knuckles, starting to process them by himself.

“Master Wang, I have something to do today, I might not be in the store, so I’ll have to trouble you to help keep an eye on it.”

Wang Qingshan immediately patted his chest, “Don’t worry! I am quite good at managing a store.”

Chen Yu nodded and then pointed to the stack of spice packs beside him.

“I have prepared the spice packs for the marinade here, you can just throw them in when adding the spices.”

Wang Qingshan nodded repeatedly.

After leaving that instruction, Chen Yu directly went up to the third floor.

He had decided to take the day off for himself, and at the same time, he wanted to test Wang Qingshan.

He had secured all those spice packs tightly, using a mesh-like sanitary gauze.

Having made marinades for ten years, Wang Qingshan should understand that in this case, all one needs to do is throw the spice packs in.

If he coveted the ingredients of the marinated foods, he would definitely try to open the packs and study their composition.

If Chen Yu returned in the evening and found the spice packs hadn’t been opened, then he could immediately start setting up a second store.

At six in the morning, Tong Ya, wearing pajamas, sleepily rubbed her eyes and came out of her room.

She was surprised to see Chen Yu sitting on the sofa.

“Is the store not open today?”

Usually at this time, Chen Yu would be busy in the kitchen.

Chen Yu leaned lazily on the sofa, “How could that be? I’m preparing for the branch store.”

“Branch store!” Tong Ya immediately became excited.

Considering the current popularity and turnover of Chen Yu’s store, he could have opened a branch store long ago.

But Chen Yu, preferring stability, had held off until now.

Tong Ya bounced and sat down beside Chen Yu, “Can I help with anything then? I’m off work today.”

Chen Yu was slightly stunned, “It’s not the weekend, and doesn’t the dance class only take a break every other week?”

Tong Ya laughed, “Yesterday at noon, Tuan Tuan was admitted to Suzhou City No. 5 Middle School on the grounds of his special talent in dance, so the next few months are essentially summer vacation.”

Chen Yu’s mouth fell open in surprise—he had known nothing about this.

Suddenly feeling guilty, he slapped his forehead. His mind was so preoccupied with the store that he indeed seemed to have neglected Tuan Tuan.

“How could I forget about this!”

Tong Ya wrapped her arm around Chen Yu’s, “It’s okay, now you just focus on running the store, and I’ll take care of Tuan Tuan’s matters.”

As she spoke, Tong Ya got up and took out an admission notice from the drawer beneath the television.

“I’ve completed all the procedures yesterday, and Tuan Tuan can go straight into the first grade.”

Chen Yu took the admission notice from Tong Ya and sighed softly.
