I won 90 million, all I want to do is lie down and relax!

"Why did you choose such a run-down place... No, the location itself is quite new, but it's just a run-down place. This is a new residential area."

Do you know how important location is for a restaurant?

"You expect people from the other side of the river to come over for dinner? Grandma, that's just wishful thinking."

Wang Xiao was heartbroken.

"Given the current state of decline in this area, do you think it can recover in less than two years?"

"You opened your restaurant in this godforsaken place, are you afraid people will find out? Do you know that a new restaurant usually takes two years to build up its popularity, and that's assuming it's in a good location?"

"So you're planning to take two years to rest and wait for the occupancy rate to improve, is that it? Once people start coming in, you'll take another two years to build up the atmosphere. After four years, can you even hold on?"

"Wow, this place has a great view; the river is just a few steps away."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhaoyang realized that he had made a huge blunder.

It's no wonder he misunderstood; business has been booming since the business opened.

It's so popular that the store's employees are often so tired that they don't want to work the next day.

Even the boss, Brother Xiang, was exhausted, and he said several times that he couldn't take it anymore.

Lu Zhaoyang knew how obsessed Xiang Ge was with making money; even he could complain of being tired, which showed just how extreme it was.

This led Su Rui to resort to money as a way to motivate the young waiters.

In addition, they specially hired a lot of part-time waiters to help alleviate everyone's pressure.

As a result, their employees have far more days off than other restaurants in the same industry.

Therefore, Lu Zhaoyang never even considered that there might be any problems.

However, Lu Zhaoyang also knew that what Wang Xiao said was actually correct.

If it were someone else, or a different restaurant, they really wouldn't be able to survive here.

He wasn't unaware of this at the time; in fact, besides the house's good layout, the price was also attractive.

This place is definitely not suitable for opening a restaurant.

The conditions are not met at least for now.

Lu Zhaoyang chuckled and said, "Brother Xiao, what you've said is indeed a problem. But there's a bug you're unaware of..."

"No, no, no, I've mentioned several bugs already, not just one..."

Wang Xiao tried to emphasize his point, but Lu Zhaoyang quickly interrupted him, saying, "What I mean is, there's a bug in the problems you mentioned that can be fixed."

"What bug?"

"It's very simple, it's just that the food tastes good."

This bug is naturally Xiang Ge's doing.

Nowadays, he attracts many people from other places to come and eat.

"That must taste amazing!"

Wang Xiao was completely defeated by Lu Zhaoyang's naiveté.

Every industry has its own rules.

In all the years he's been making food, he can count on one hand the number of times he's encountered someone who breaks the rules.

"It's delicious."

"Sigh. I've seen plenty of good food. The idea that good wine needs no bush is a lie. Old Lu, you can't be too naive in business."

"Brother Xiao, the answers are all in the menu. You'll know once you try it. Take a look and see if there's anything you want to eat. I just told the kitchen to grill some meat skewers and bring out a few signature dishes first. If there's anything else you want to eat later, you can order it."

Lu Zhaoyang glanced at the door and saw several waiters coming out, knowing that a meeting was about to begin as usual.

In this way, no one will serve the food.

So he stood up and said, "Brother Xiao, the meat skewers are probably almost ready. I'll go check."

Wang Xiao was about to ask Lu Zhaoyang how much revenue he had here.

Once you know the turnover, it becomes obvious how much money you've lost.

However, asking such a question can easily hurt people.

Just then, Lu Zhaoyang walked away.

Just then.

Several people were standing in a row at the entrance of the restaurant.

On the steps stood a woman in her thirties wearing a white shirt.

At first, Wang Xiao didn't take it too seriously.

Pre-opening mobilization meetings are very common for restaurants.

But a dozen seconds later...

His eyes changed.

Because, in just a few dozen seconds.

Originally, there were only four or five people chatting casually, but the number gradually increased, and in the blink of an eye, it had grown to more than a dozen.

There wasn't enough room in one row, so two rows had to be filled.

The woman standing on the steps was dressed in a white shirt, looking very formal.

Everyone else was wearing the same black uniform, looking very smart and sharp.

Wang Xiao narrowed his eyes and perked up his ears.

"First of all, I'd like to give everyone a shout-out. The overall service was excellent yesterday, with zero customer complaints throughout the day."

"Special commendation goes to the outdoor seating area, specifically to Group Two. Last night, a customer insisted on bringing their pet dog to dine despite warnings. Wang Ningshuai was the one who served them. Based on the customer's account, the CCTV footage, and my own observations upon arriving at the scene, it's clear that Wang Ningshuai handled the situation calmly, rationally, and appropriately. He not only successfully persuaded the customer to take their pet home before returning to dine, but also left a very good impression on other customers. I recall receiving three compliments yesterday. This deserves special praise. Wang Ningshuai's performance triggered the store's Outstanding Performance Award, and the bonus has already been distributed in the group chat, as you've all seen."

The person in charge of the meeting was naturally Su Rui.

As soon as she finished speaking, a cheer and applause erupted from below.

The atmosphere was quite lively.

"Treat us to a meal! Treat us to a meal!"

"Little Handsome's treating!"

One person started making a fuss, and then several others joined in.

Wang Ningshuai was a shy young man, standing in the crowd rubbing his hands and smiling along.

They dared not agree, nor were they comfortable refusing.

Su Rui raised her hand, silencing the commotion: "Alright, alright, stop making a scene. What's with the invitation? Have you forgotten the shop's rules? Colleagues aren't allowed to treat each other to meals for no reason. You're all so young, do you know how hard it is to earn money? This thousand yuan bonus isn't even enough to cover your food expenses, and Wang Ningshuai has to contribute money to the shop. If you really want to get together, wait for the next staff dinner."

"But the next get-together won't be for several days!" someone in the crowd shouted.

Su Rui glanced over and said irritably, "Why don't you know that yourself?"

"Because we just had a get-together a couple of days ago!"

"That settles it."

"Alright, enough chit-chat, everyone, let's get our spirits up and get to work!"

As the woman in the white shirt gestured, the crowd below erupted in a unison of "Good!"

This "good" is not the kind of "good, very good, excellent" that real estate agents on the street shout listlessly in the morning.

This is a cry from the bottom of one's heart.

A sense of doubt arose in Wang Xiao's mind.

This is not quite what he expected.

He turned his head and made a new and surprising discovery.

He was so focused on watching the commotion that he didn't even notice that people were starting to arrive.

In such a short time, several tables have already been filled.

"I'm sorry, private rooms need to be booked in advance. I forgot by mistake, so I'm sorry to have to ask the guests to sit outside."

"What are you saying, Mr. Zhao? You only get the feeling when you're sitting on the outside!"

Wang Xiao overheard a conversation not far away, scratched his ear, and thought he had misheard.

Suddenly his nose twitched, and he abruptly turned his head.

Then I saw a waiter slowly approaching with a plate of meat skewers.

The aroma of this meat...

Wang Xiao's eyes widened, his body trembled, and he couldn't help but shudder.
