Want a cook or a son

Chapter 46

It's the first time for Bai Chi to come here, thinking that this will be his restaurant in the future, his heart is about to burst out of excitement.

The restaurant has a large area and very good lighting. It has not been decorated yet, and it looks a bit empty.Yu Haoran took him back and forth, inside and out, pointing out where is the lobby, where is the kitchen, where is the warehouse, and where is the bathroom.

Bai Chi looked at it carefully. Although there was only a faint smile on his face, his heart was already filled with excitement. This is the restaurant that really belonged to him that he had dreamed of for two lifetimes, and all this was brought to him by the man in front of him. Let him not only have a family, but also the right to pursue his dreams.

"Satisfied?" Yu Haoran hugged him from behind, rubbed his chin affectionately against Bai Chi's cheek, there was a smile in his always cold voice, a bit like Bai Tang's appearance when he was acting like a baby, Bai Tang was sweet in his heart, turned around and said kissed.

Lips and teeth are attached to each other, and this is the first time that Baichi is so proactive. Surprise flashed in Yu Haoran's eyes, and then he turned back unceremoniously, and his arms holding Baichi became tighter and tighter.

The two didn't stop until they were about to shoot their guns, silently calming down the accelerated heartbeat, Bai Chi leaned on Yu Haoran's body, being hugged from behind, this posture made him feel very safe, Yu Haoran told him about the decoration plan of the restaurant, This Bai Chi didn't understand, so he listened quietly, and occasionally put forward some comments, and Yu Haoran chose to add them according to his discretion.

Yu Haoran has already made plans for the restaurant, so the name continues the style of the online store, called "Baitang's Kitchen", and uses the image of Baitang as the store logo, which is both pleasing and special.

Yu Haoran has his own plans for this decision. One is that Baichi’s online store is doing very well, and the publicity is also in place. Taking advantage of the wind from the online store can make the restaurant’s development smoother; , but the golden finger is so strong that it is against the sky, and it is good to use it as a signboard to rub luck; third, the restaurant has just opened, so it must have a distinctive brand image. Gained his own small fans, the brand effect is very strong.Based on the above three points, Baitang was lucky to become the lucky cat of the new restaurant.

Yu Haoran has also made a decision on the restaurant's positioning. He hopes to position the restaurant's consumers in the mid-to-high-end crowd. The signs he plays are pure, green and healthy. Firstly, there is a large profit margin, and secondly, it reduces the workload of Wade.Of course, after the opening of the new restaurant, it is inevitable to hire some chefs, and also to recruit some apprentices to learn cooking skills from Bai Chi. He couldn't bear Bai Chi to work in the restaurant all day.

Because the level of crowd positioning is higher, the decoration level of the restaurant must also be improved accordingly. Yu Haoran plans to cancel dine-in meals and present them all in the form of private rooms. Considering the number of customers, the private rooms are set in different sizes, and the large private rooms are completely separated to ensure privacy. Strong, the small private rooms for two or three people adopt the form of partitions, which are both independent and connected; the lobby can be set as a leisure mode for people to rest and drink tea, and at the same time improve the style of the restaurant.

After discussing the overall style of the restaurant, Bai Chi and Yu Haoran walked around the room again before coming out. Just two steps away from the street, they saw five or six people coming out of the new restaurant diagonally opposite, the first one was a 50-year-old man The middle-aged man is not tall, but his imposing manner can be noticed at a glance. The few people behind him are talking to each other, nodding from time to time, with satisfied expressions on their faces.

Seeing Yu Haoran's gaze kept on looking at the few people opposite, Bai Chi couldn't help being curious, so he asked, "Who are these people?"

"The people of the Chen Group, the one who is at the forefront is Chen Zeqi, the current president of the Chen Group."

"Mr. Chen? What are they doing here?"

"Should have come to see the store like us," Yu Haoran narrowed his gaze, "The Chen family made their fortune in the catering industry and have passed it down for nearly 200 years. Its heyday has passed, and it has been severely weakened in recent years."

Yu Haoran sneered, and explained under Bai Chi's puzzled eyes: "The current head of the Chen family is pedantic and old-fashioned, always thinking that the Chen family can be developed by sticking to the few recipes handed down by the ancestors, but in today's society, you don't How to push the old and bring forth the new can keep up with the needs of development, and the Chen family is steadfast and powerful. In order to gain power, they suppressed the same clan and bullied talents. I don’t know how many crimes they have committed. He has real skills and foresight, but his life is not long, he died in a car accident a few years ago, and the Chen family has been silent since then."

After finishing speaking, Yu Haoran looked at Bai Chi with serious eyes and said: "The screenwriter Chen you met last time was the youngest son of the old man of the Chen family, but he was kicked out of the Chen family for some reason, but even so, he is still from the Chen family. There are too many secrets in the house, you'd better not get involved."

Bai Chi nodded immediately. He did have a good impression of Screenwriter Chen before, but after the conversation yesterday, Editor Chen's sensitivity to his orphan status still made him a little uncomfortable. Since Yu Haoran also asked him to stay away, he should stay away from that person. up.

Just when the two were about to leave home, Chen Zeqi suddenly looked in their direction, he nodded to Yu Haoran first, then his eyes slipped over Bai Chi's body unintentionally, without stopping for half a second, he immediately led a group of people leave.

After Yu Haoran went back, he told Father Yu about his plan to open a new restaurant. Father Yu naturally supported him. He is very happy to see the success of his career, and he said that after the restaurant opens, he will bring his old friends to join him.

Mother Yu was also happy for them, and even brought the little bun in her arms to "babble" to congratulate. The whole family enjoyed themselves happily, and Bai Chi's heart warmed.

But there are still problems. Yu Haoran repeated the restaurant's decoration, publicity, positioning and other issues. Yu's father has been in the mall for many years. Although he is now second-tier, he has a sharp eye and a meticulous mind. He quickly gave them some advice. It benefited Baichi and the others a lot. In the end, Yu Haoran told the story of meeting Chen Zeqi today. Father Yu's face became serious after hearing this, and said, "You mean the Chen family will also open a restaurant there?"

"Looks like it is."

"That's a bit tricky. Although the Chen family is not good at management, they have some skills in cooking and have a lot of regular customers. If you become a rival with the Chen family, Xiaobai, you have to be mentally prepared."

"Well, I understand." Wade White nodded, in fact, there are competitions everywhere, but this time the opponent is stronger.

In the Chen family, Mr. Chen was still sitting on the main seat leaning on crutches and a golden knife. He listened to the elder son's report, his face sank like water, his drooping eyelids covered the light in his eyes. After a long silence, he raised his eyelids and said: "You just said that that little bastard actually boarded the boat of President Yu's and opened a restaurant opposite my house?"

"Yes."

"Nonsense!" Mr. Chen stomped his crutches, and the solid wood and marble made dull sounds, which made Chen Zeqi break out in a cold sweat when he answered, "This little bastard is as shameless as his father, and he will lose face to our Chen family. The president of the Yu family went to the bed, he should have died in the first place, so as not to embarrass the ancestors of the Chen family, and even open a restaurant to compete with the Chen family, this little villain is here to harm the Chen family. "

Chen Zeqi was covered in cold sweat, he didn't dare to go up to touch the old man's bad luck now, so he could only persuade him not to get angry.

Mr. Chen was still unwilling, and angrily cursed: "I want to see how this little bastard can compete with our Chen family restaurant. Don't think that you can sleep peacefully by relying on Yu's family. Zeqi, you will make people stare at you more." That store, don't let people see the jokes of our Chen family."

"Yes."

After the location of the new restaurant was selected, it entered into a tense renovation period. This matter was handed over to the decoration company under Yu Haoran. Yu's company mainly focuses on hotels and real estate, and the corresponding surrounding areas are also very complete. For the decoration of a small The restaurant is not a problem at all, and Yu Haoran is a master who is willing to spend money, and the decoration began to be in full swing soon after the preparation period.

Bai Chi didn't know anything about it, but it didn't prevent him from going over there every few days to have a look. He euphemistically called it "Supervisor", which made Yu Haoran very happy, and even pretended to pay him wages. Of course, he used the wages as interest. Turned in.

The time soon came to the Mid-Autumn Festival, the day when the couple had a reunion, and the weather gradually became cooler, but the heat was still there, and it was still a little hot at noon.

The Yu family is not like other families who admire some foreign festivals, but instead attaches great importance to the traditional festivals of country Z. Naturally, such a big day as the Mid-Autumn Festival should be celebrated.

Bai Chi grew up in an orphanage. Naturally, the Mid-Autumn Festival will also be celebrated, but they are all with those children who were also abandoned. The orphanage is poor, and each child can only get two candies and half moon cakes, but it is not good for the year-round. For the white pool of snacks, it is so good that it is hard to forget the sweet taste even now.

After growing up, he seldom celebrates Mid-Autumn Festival. First, he understands the meaning of Mid-Autumn Festival, and he doesn’t want to make love to it. Second, there is no one around him to spend it with him. But now it’s different, he has Little Baozi, and Yu Haoran , and Baitang, Yu's father and Yu's mother, with so many people living together, he can already imagine the excitement of the night.

The Mid-Autumn Festival dinner was cooked by Bai Chi himself. It is said that the dinner is actually more rich than the usual dinner. The four of Bai Chi and the Yu family plus a Wei Wei, steamed catfish in black bean sauce, grilled chicken in honey sauce, mushroom fish paste on the table Soup, braised beef brisket, shredded cabbage, eggplant stew and other delicacies are all delicious in color and fragrance, and the crowd can't stop eating.

Mother Yu joked that if she continued to eat like this, she might not be able to wear the dress she bought last year. Father Yu made fun of her, saying that she was old and pretty, and she was not shy. He just begged for mercy, and was let go after saying a lot of good things, which made Bai Chi and Yu Haoran laugh endlessly.

When the atmosphere was just right, Wade White's cell phone rang. When he took it out, he found that it was screenwriter Chen. The relationship between the two of them was at most acquaintance. Could it be that he was calling at this time to say "Happy Holidays" to him?

Wade White muttered a little, said "sorry" to everyone and got up to answer the phone.The opposite side is very quiet, a little out of place in today's festival, so I heard screenwriter Chen say: "Xiaochi, happy Mid-Autumn Festival."

"..." Bai Chi was a little speechless, wouldn't this kind of blessing be sent as a text message?But after all, it was the other party's kindness, so Bai Chi had no choice but to say: "Happy holidays."

The other party seemed very happy, responded incoherently, and then asked in a cautious tone: "Xiaochi, do you have someone to accompany you for the holiday tonight?"

"Have."

The other party was stunned for a moment, and Bai Chi somehow felt that the other party was a little disappointed, and then he heard screenwriter Chen ask: "Is it with Mr. Yu?"

"Yes, there is also Dong Yu and his wife."

"You spend the holidays with them?"

"Well, the chairman and his wife are good people." After Bai Chi finished speaking, he found an excuse and hung up the phone, leaving screenwriter Chen alone with a wry smile facing the table of dishes.

This little episode didn't affect Bai Chi's good mood. After returning to the table, he continued to chat and laugh with everyone. Yu Haoran looked at him with questioning eyes. Bai Chi smiled at him and shook his head, indicating that there was nothing wrong. stand up.

After dinner, everyone moved to the yard, where a few chairs and a table were placed. It was the season of sweet osmanthus fragrance, and several golden osmanthus plants in the garden were already in full bloom. With the cool evening breeze, it was refreshing.

A full moon hangs high in the dark blue sky, which looks extraordinarily quiet and distant in the brightly lit city. Embellished by a few stars, it quietly sprinkles the cool brilliance on the world.

Bai Chi stared at Yuan Yue quietly, leaned his body against Yu Haoran's arms, pointed to the moon and asked, "Is this the representative of Yuan Yue?"

"Well, a family reunion." Yu Haoran said with a smile, his eyes swept over the surrounding family members, and his heart was filled with an unprecedented sense of satisfaction, which was brought to him here in his arms.

Yu Haoran kissed Bai Chi's forehead, then firmly pulled his raised hand back and said, "You can't point your finger at the moon."

"why?"

"Because fingering the moon will cut off your ears," Yu's mother explained with a smile, "I told Haoran that way when he was a child, and he still remembers that when he was eight years old, he accidentally fingered the moon, and he was terribly worried. Keep asking me if his ears were cut off."

Speaking of Mother Yu, she laughed first, and Bai Chi also asked Yu Haoran enthusiastically if there was such a thing. Such a cute Yu Boss is rare. Yu Haoran was a little embarrassed to find out his childhood embarrassment, but he didn't show anything on his face, and he was serious Said: "It's better to believe what you have than to believe what you don't have." It's impossible to just tease Bai Chi.

While chatting and laughing, Mrs. Wei took out the mooncakes made by Baichi from the kitchen. Because they were freshly baked, each one was steaming hot. As Mrs. Wei approached, a strong fragrance rushed over her face. Mixed with the salty fragrance, it hooked out the gluttons of people.

Yu's father and Yu's mother were attracted by the fragrance and sat up straight together, looking back. Even the little bun gave up on the molar stick that Di Zhenghuan was chewing, and drooled at the large plate of mooncakes that was slowly approaching.
