Chapter 511 (2/2)

“Look at the prices on the wall and you’ll know that I can afford it.” Yuan Zhou pointed at the menu smilingly and said that.

“Yes, I know. You are an honest person and use quality ingredients, thus the cost is high. So the prices are fairly reasonable.” Boss Tong appeared quite supportive of him.

Ever since Boss Tong ate once in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, she knew that Yuan Zhou used very good ingredients.

“So you don’t need to worry. Coincidentally, my restaurant is too small and I want to enlarge it.” Yuan Zhou said sincerely.

However, he added in the heart, “It depends on when I can level up.”

“Let’s stop here. I won’t accept your money.” Boss Tong refused flatly. Then she stood up and prepared to leave.

“Okay. Aunt Tong, at least tell me when you are going to leave. Let me see you off.” Yuan Zhou stood up and opened the door for her hurriedly.

“Got it.” Boss Tong waved her hand and then returned to her own store.

“Who can tell me what’s wrong with Boss Tong? Is she prepared to go on a trip alone?” Yuan Zhou didn’t reveal any expression of surprise, but he was actually quite astonished.

In Yuan Zhou’s impression, Boss Tong wasn’t a native of Chengdu, but she had been running this dry cleaning shop here for quite a long time. She was always alone, even on Chinese New Year or other festivals. Yuan Zhou also heard from his parents that Boss Tong didn’t have other relatives.

It surprised him a lot when he heard that Boss Tong surprisingly wanted to gift this store to him.

It was known to all that business was so good on the side street that the overall price of each store more than doubled. Some people had indeed offered a good price for Boss Tong’s dry cleaning store, but they were all declined by her.

Even Yuan Zhou had seen that before.

After all, the dry cleaning store was next to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. Another neighboring store had been taken by Yuan Zhou to be the backyard of the pub. In front of the store was the high-end western restaurant where Li Li worked. Therefore, the current place of Boss Tong’s store was the best at the moment.

Leaving others aside, the business couldn’t be better if the store was renovated into a tea house where people could drink while waiting for seats in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. After all, it was just next to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. People just needed to crane their neck to see the door of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.

For that whole afternoon, Yuan Zhou didn’t sculpt. He just sat there for that afternoon and kept thinking why Boss Tong suddenly wanted to quit her business and even intended to give him the store for free.

When he reacted in the end, it was almost dark. It was the time for dinner time to start.

“How rare for me to slack on the job today. Sigh! It turns out that I am too diligent during normal times.” Yuan Zhou said proudly.

“Good evening, boss.” Zhou Jia breathed out some hot air to warm her hands and then asked politely once she entered the restaurant.

“Um. By the way, there will be another girl working with you during the daytime on winter vacation.” Yuan Zhou said primly.

He behaved normally and did not seem like someone who had almost forgotten this matter, acting as if it were quite normal to inform her right now, even if Mu Xiaoyun had told him about that nearly a week ago.

“Of course, that is great. But there originally isn’t much work in the restaurant for me. Boss, is there anything I am not doing well?” Zhou Jia asked carefully.

In her opinion, the work was way too easy. She just needed to greet the customers and sometimes, didn’t even need to carry dishes, let alone the work of tidying up the plates.

“Mu Xiaoyun will be only doing her part-time job in the winter vacation.” Yuan Zhou didn’t think too much, but just told her something about Mu Xiaoyun.

“Um. Got it.” Zhou Jia nodded her head earnestly.

As for whether they had the same understanding or not, only God might know.
