If you don't consummate the marriage for three years and then marry a successful educated youth

Government office building lounge

The assistant rushed over with a thermos, opened it, filled a bowl, and placed it on the table: "Boss, you can eat now. You've been busy all morning, so please have something to tide you over."

"Otherwise, the stomach pain will be too unbearable. Try the same place you drank before."

He wondered if it was just his imagination, but the food he bought this time didn't taste as good, and it even had a strange duck smell. Oh well, maybe it was just his imagination. How could the food from the same restaurant taste so different?

The mayor grunted in response, picked up the bowl and brought it closer, but before he could even take a bite, his throat felt like it was blocked, his face changed, and he quickly put down the bowl and gagged.

The assistant rushed over, pulled out a handkerchief, and asked with a worried expression, "Boss, what's wrong?"

He paused for a moment without saying anything, then casually took the things out.

"Take it away, I'm not eating it, the taste is wrong."

"...The taste is wrong? No wonder it didn't smell as good when I was waiting for it today. It had a greasy smell. It wasn't like this before. It was very refreshing and not greasy before."

The assistant, without saying anything else, hurriedly took out the insulated containers and bowls, came back, opened the window for ventilation, observed the leader's expression, and cautiously asked, "Sir, would you like something else to eat?"

"I'll go out and buy some; maybe other places will taste better. I don't know what's wrong with this restaurant. It used to be pretty good, but today the taste has changed, and the price has increased by a third."

He said somewhat indignantly, "If the taste were good, raising the price would be understandable, but raising the price when the taste is bad is too much."

"I also heard that prices hadn't increased before, but suddenly went up after it was reported in the newspaper, and a lot of people are complaining about it. It's really strange."

The mayor paused, holding his pen, and looked at him, saying in a low voice, "Go and find out what's going on. If there's really something wrong with this restaurant, then don't publicize it to avoid embarrassment."

"While we're at it, let's also check out other restaurants to see if there are any decent ones with reasonable prices. Once the policies are released later, we can encourage them to open more branches and create more jobs."

"Food is the most important thing for people. Good food with good taste and good price will always be popular. More good restaurants will create more local jobs. Similarly, planting and breeding are an industrial chain."

The assistant's eyes lit up: "Haha, yes, I understand what you mean, boss. Don't worry, leave it to me. I'll go find someone to find out what happened right away."

"That Sun Youcai doesn't look like an honest person. There might be some hidden story behind this. If there are to be any policy support policies here, they shouldn't be given to people with wicked intentions."

"If something goes wrong, it will be a huge mess, a real problem."

The mayor grunted in agreement: "Go out, and come back as soon as you've finished dealing with this."

"Well, what are you having for lunch?"

"I'll just have malted milk powder, I'm not hungry."

The assistant sighed inwardly. Sure enough, things had returned to normal. If the mayor couldn't eat properly, his body couldn't take it, especially with so many things to do and meetings to attend.

He had more gray hairs now. Sigh, he'd better hurry up and get things done. He quickly walked out and closed the door.

There was a lot of noise at the entrance of the Happiness Restaurant.

Sun Youcai was already irritable, and when he came out, his face was dark: "What happened?"

"Boss, they deliberately caused trouble, saying our food was bad and we raised prices, that they weren't as conscientious as the ones across the street. So I cursed them a bit more. Humph, they're just like wild boars that can't eat fine chaff."

"If you can't afford it, don't come to eat here. It's like we don't need your little bit of people. Even government officials say our food is delicious, and you're just nitpicking. Pshaw."

These words went too far. Several people who couldn't control their tempers had already raised their fists and rushed up to beat him. Seeing this, the other people in the store also rushed over, and the store entrance was immediately in chaos.

The assistant, watching this farce from the shadows, couldn't help but click his tongue: "Opening a business like this and acting so arrogantly, how can they possibly have repeat customers? They've really gotten too big for their britches."

Just as I was engrossed in watching the play, a familiar aroma wafted over, making my mouth water.

Glug glug~~

"Hey, I'm actually a bit hungry. I had a better meal before, and now the cafeteria food doesn't taste very good. This smell doesn't seem to be coming from the kitchen of Happiness Restaurant."

The assistant followed the aroma and joined the queue in the crowd. Listening to their chatter, he asked curiously, "Sir, how's the food at this restaurant?"

"I just arrived in this town and I want to eat something good, but I don't know which place is good. I heard that Happiness Restaurant is quite famous, but there was a fight going on in front of their door..."

Upon hearing this, the bespectacled man immediately perked up and said enthusiastically, "Brother, you've come to the right person! I love this kind of food, and I've eaten at every restaurant in town."

"If you're talking about delicious food that's good for your health, then this Haoyunlai medicinal cuisine is definitely the place. It used to be too bland and didn't taste good enough, but now the recipe has been changed and it's so delicious."

"They also recommend different medicinal diets based on age and physical condition. My mother had a cold constitution, so she ate that ginger duck soup..."

"After taking it, my leg pain gradually subsided. This is much better than taking medicine, which tastes terrible."

Upon hearing this, the assistant exclaimed in surprise, "This boss is also skilled in medicine! That's amazing! Medicinal cuisine is not easy to make; if it's not done properly, it can be very harmful to the body."

The bespectacled man nodded repeatedly: "That's right, but the owner of this place is amazing. Everyone who has eaten here says it's good. The dishes aren't particularly strong in flavor, but they're really satisfying to eat."

"You'll know once you try it. As for the one across the street..."

She curled her lip and said bluntly, "I hadn't eaten at Haoyunlai before, and I thought the one across the street was pretty good. But ever since I ate at this one, I haven't wanted to go to that other one."

"It all tastes like seasonings, you can't taste the original flavor of the ingredients anymore, and the ingredients are not fresh at all. Now the price has increased by a third, so I'm even less willing to go. Let them do whatever they want."

"The customers leave in the morning and evening. Let's see how many times they can entertain government officials. They don't come to eat every day. If they don't have enough customers, they'll have to close down."

The assistant hummed in agreement and silently made a note of it. When it was his turn, he didn't eat there but instead packed up the ginger duck to take home, thinking he could secretly treat himself to a meal.

He recounted the details of what he had gathered: "Boss, I don't think this Happiness Restaurant is any good. The management is chaotic, the ingredients aren't fresh, the prices are inflated, and they even got into a fight with customers."

"If a hotel that wants to be a pilot project doesn't have these most basic qualities, even if the government provides support, it will end up being a mess, so it's better not to bother."

The mayor nodded: "You're right. Before the actual policy is implemented, we need to conduct pilot programs to select suitable ones. The Happiness Hotel is indeed not suitable."

"Disorderly management is a very troublesome thing. If we expand rashly, the problems will only get bigger. If someone dies from eating it, that's no small matter."
