Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

Chu Xinyan was amused by what Widow Wang said.

"Sister-in-law, you're just joking. What era is this? There's no such thing as a farmhand anymore."

If Wang Wanru was a farmhand, then Li Youcai would have become a wealthy landlord.

If this had happened a few years ago, I would have been in big trouble.

"Are you just saying that? The newspapers are all talking about reform and getting rich. In this regard, your Li Youcai is ahead of everyone else. He is definitely advanced." Wang Wanru said with a smile.

Her eyebrows were curved like willow leaves, and she glanced at Li Youcai beside her frivolously.

The current Li Youcai is no longer the ragged Li Youcai. Now Li Youcai wears a shirt, trousers, leather shoes, and a silver Shanghai watch on his wrist.

A true leadership aura.

Chu Xinyan also followed her gaze and looked at Li Youcai. She saw that Li Youcai's demeanor and behavior when he was talking to Gao Dapeng were indeed completely different from before.

Now when people talk about Li Youcai, everyone has something good to say.

There are countless young wives in the team who always envy Chu Xinyan and say that she married a good man.

Thinking of this, Chu Xinyan couldn't help feeling happy.

"Let's go in." Li Youcai turned his head to look at Chu Xinyan and greeted her.

Led by Gao Dapeng, everyone stepped through the revolving door and entered the restaurant lobby.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see a central hall. The floor is made of black and white marble tiles, which form a pattern of wealth coming from all directions. In the middle of the pattern is a brass **, which means wealth coming from all directions and attracting fortune and treasure.

As soon as I walked out of the revolving door, there were four waiters on each side, wearing red cheongsams with gold flowers. They were all wearing black high heels and were about twenty years old, very graceful.

"Good morning, distinguished guests, and welcome." Eight waiters shouted in unison.

Wang Wanru looked at the waiters she had trained herself, and felt a little proud in her heart. She wouldn't dare to say too much, but in Taihe City, there is absolutely no other waiters with such quality.

Li Youcai felt it was very good, and it really had a bit of the flavor of high-end restaurants and clubs in later generations.

"How is it? Not bad, right?" Gao Dapeng asked Li Youcai with a little excitement.

"It's pretty good. After so long training, the effect is very good." Li Youcai said.

Gao Dapeng looked at Li Youcai, was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I'm talking about decoration."

"Haha, I'm talking about the waiter." Li Youcai laughed, patted Gao Dapeng on the back, and the two walked inside together.

The entire restaurant has open tables on the first floor and private rooms on the second and third floors, and the overall decoration is very good.

"It's done really well. I now declare that it has passed the acceptance inspection, hehe..." Li Youcai laughed and expressed his approval of the restaurant's interior decoration in a joking tone.

"I've seen the front, but there's still the back."

Gao Dapeng, with a mysterious smile on his face, led Li Youcai towards the kitchen.

"Brother Gao, what treasure did you pick up? Look how happy you are." Seeing Gao Dapeng like this, Li Youcai knew that there must be something good in the kitchen, the kind that Gao Dapeng could show off.

"That's truly a treasure, but this treasure isn't an object, it's a person!"

"People? What do you mean?"

"Let me tell you, I've really found a treasure this time. I've invited Jin Kang, the eldest disciple of Lu Shibao, a direct disciple of Mr. Lu Zhaoshan, the imperial chef of the Qing Dynasty, to be our head chef!"

This introduction is too long.

Li Youcai stopped and looked at Gao Dapeng blankly: "You are not trying to trick me, are you?"

"Don't worry, it's not wrong."

"Uncle Jin's hometown is Taihe City. He was locked up in a cowshed a few years ago because of his class background. He almost starved to death. It was my mother who secretly gave him two steamed buns and saved his life. Later, after Uncle Jin was rehabilitated, he was assigned to work as a cook in a government agency. When he heard that I was going to open a big restaurant, he gave up his job and came to help me."

Gao Dapeng looked very proud when he spoke.

This is really a treasure!

"What do you think? It's not unfair for me to get these 4% shares." Gao Dapeng said with a smile.

Gao Dapeng did not contribute any money to build this restaurant, he only took shares.

Although Li Youcai had never mentioned it before, Gao Dapeng still felt that he was taking advantage of Li Youcai and felt a little embarrassed.

Now that he has brought in the successor of the imperial chef, Gao Dapeng feels a little more balanced.

"It's not unfair, not at all." Li Youcai said with a smile.

Wang Wanru and Chu Xinyan were walking behind and heard the conversation between Gao Dapeng and Li Youcai.

She was shocked, because she knew that this restaurant was jointly run by Gao Dapeng and Li Youcai, but she didn't know that Gao Dapeng only held dry shares.

It costs a lot of money to build such a big restaurant. Li Youcai gave Gao Dapeng 4% of the shares for free. This shows extraordinary courage.

But after hearing that Gao Dapeng had actually brought in the successor of the imperial chef, Wang Wanru felt that Li Youcai's 4% stake was worth it.

The successor of the imperial chef, this title alone can attract many diners.

Everyone walked into the kitchen.

I saw that there were already seven or eight workers in chef's uniforms, cleaning ingredients and cutting meat.

A chef who is nearly fifty years old, with his hands behind his back and a tall chef's hat on his head.

The chef's uniform on this person was different from the others. It was not the white Western-style chef's uniform, but a light blue half-length robe with a white cloth apron tied around his lower abdomen.

"Uncle Jin, the restaurant's major shareholder is here. I brought him over to meet you." Gao Dapeng shouted loudly after entering the kitchen.

"You are not allowed in the kitchen. I've told you so many times."

Master Jin was a little displeased. He walked towards Gao Dapeng and stretched out his hand to drive everyone away: "Go, go, go, stay in front."

This heir of the imperial chef has a bit of a strange temper.

However, many chefs really don't like strangers entering the kitchen, and Li Youcai can understand that.

"Let's go out." Li Youcai asked everyone to leave the kitchen.

Chef Jin followed him out of the kitchen and said to Li Youcai and the others in a deep voice, "The kitchen is a key area. Outsiders are not allowed to enter or leave casually. This is the rule."

Gao Dapeng smiled bitterly: "Yes, yes, what you said is the rule."

"Uncle, this is our major shareholder, Li Youcai. He is the boss."

Li Youcai extended his hand: "Hello, Master Jin, I am Li Youcai. It is our honor that you condescend to come to us."

Jin Kang was quite surprised to see that Li Youcai was so young and was actually the boss here.

But what this person said was quite pleasant to the ear.

"I've prepared some ingredients and will make a few dishes for you to try at noon," Jin Kang said.

Upon hearing this, Li Youcai looked at Gao Dapeng.

If you are looking to recruit a chef, food tasting is a natural thing to do.

But this Chef Jin was invited by Gao Dapeng after all, and he was the successor of the imperial chef. It would seem a bit impolite to taste the food, so Li Youcai looked at Gao Dapeng, seeking his opinion.

"Uncle Jin's cooking skills are amazing. I haven't eaten it in a long time. This time, I'm going to have a feast with you guys."

Seeing Gao Dapeng say this, Li Youcai no longer had any concerns: "Thank you for your hard work, Master Jin."

After leaving the kitchen, Li Youcai and his companions entered the private room on the second floor.

"There's still one most important thing that hasn't been decided for the restaurant yet, and it needs to be decided by you, the big boss."

Li Youcai smiled knowingly and immediately understood what Gao Dapeng was talking about.

"I've already thought of a name. It's called 'Zhenweiju'."
