I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 617: The Remnant Soul: Zhang Youhong breaks through again, Wang Chaling's brain suddenly short-circuits

A truly successful restaurant theory?
If he said this, Yang Xiaotian and others might still be skeptical, but if it was said by the "store manager", it would be much more credible.

As we all know, the "store manager" is an ordinary person cut out by him. His consciousness is to develop the Peace Hotel and it is unlikely that he would lie about such things.

Lin Yuan's "store manager" vest has not been removed yet, so naturally it would not arouse suspicion.

Glancing at the thoughtful crowd, Lin Yuan smiled and said, "To be honest, you are all familiar customers of our store and are familiar with the situation of our store. I just wonder if you are interested in helping to promote the store? Of course, I won't let you waste your time in vain. According to the spending power of the customers you recommend, I can give you a rebate of this amount. How about it?"

Lin Yuan said this, raising his index finger.

The one who was most sensitive to numbers was Wang Chaling. He said in surprise, "Boss Lin, are you willing to give me a 10% rebate? If so, my parents will definitely cooperate with us!"

Because you love money?
There are indeed reasons for this.

In order to purchase the maintenance device, he has almost spent all his family savings, and adding the money to charge the maintenance device, it is even more costly.

In reality, the Peace Hotel is no longer a secret.

Even those people abroad, who originally were reluctant to believe in the existence of the Peace Hotel, have now accepted it from the bottom of their hearts.

I just don’t know why, but there aren’t many foreign ghost riders entering the Peace Hotel.

(Manor owner: Don’t worry, my branch store will soon be opened. Anna, my dear daughter, you are too slow!!!)

In comparison, the Peace Hotel market in this era is a complete blue ocean!
In the ten hours today, only four new people were called in, but that doesn’t mean it will be the same in the future.

Wang Chaling is a professional when it comes to doing business. He knows very well that the Peace Hotel has no rivals in this era. As long as its authenticity can be confirmed, many people of this era will rush to visit it.

It is not to solve the problem of the revival of evil spirits.

The vast majority of ghost riders still alive in this era came from the Republic of China period. For those who have survived to the present day, the revival of evil spirits is no longer a fatal problem and has basically been solved.

These people are even going a step further, looking for ways to completely end the supernatural era, just like their Wang family in Dadong City!
What really attracts these people to the Peace Hotel is that they can travel to the future forty years from now. Even if they cannot bring back their memories, many people of this era are willing to pay a sufficient price if they can take a look at what the future will be like!
The older generation of this era has much more money than the new generation in reality.

If they can get 10% of the profits, then their Wang family will surely rise rapidly in the future. People like Fang Shiming and Zhang Xianguang will all tremble in fear under the financial power of their Wang family!

Another very important reason is that it gives you the opportunity to gain the favor of the "store manager".

If we could get the opportunity to open a branch or franchise store in the year of Gengshen, just like opening branches in major cities in reality, what would the future be like?

Wang Chaling no longer dared to imagine it.

He was so looking forward to the future that he didn't notice at all the way Yang Xiaotian, Meng Xiaodong, or even his own parents looked at him as if he were a fool.

His mother slapped her forehead helplessly, as if saying: How could I give birth to such a stupid son?

Sure enough, Lin Yuan said, "What are you thinking? If I give you 10% of the profit, can I still open this store? What do you think of 1% of the profit?"

The latter sentence was directed to Meng Xiaodong and Yang Xiaotian.

"No problem, this is already very good, thank you, Boss Lin." Yang Xiaotian agreed immediately.

Lin Yuan nodded with satisfaction. "That's right. Don't worry, Old Yang. As long as you save enough money, you can always go back forty years later and meet your son and your wife."

Son...it's nothing.

But wife?

Yang Xiaotian didn't know what to feel.

The last time he met his future wife Zhang Fen in real life, but Zhang Fen was already very old at that time, and it was very difficult for her to raise Yang Jian by herself, and she looked very old.

Joseph Yeung is a ghost rider, but he is also a normal man.

Although he was well aware that Zhang Fen had given a lot to him, he still felt a little awkward about taking care of Zhang Fen as his wife after more than 40 years.

What's more, there is a younger Zhang Fen in this era...

The reason why Yang Xiaotian agreed so quickly was that he wanted to prepare more "money", not for himself, but for Yang Jian... and Zhang Fen more than forty years later.

No matter what, it is his responsibility and he will not shirk it, nor is it possible for him to shirk it.

"Grandma Meng, what about you? You should know more people than Lao Yang, Xiao Wang and the others. If you help, you will definitely make more money." Lin Yuan valued Meng Xiaodong more.

Just like what he said.

As one of the Seven Elders of the Republic of China, the people Meng Xiaodong knows are definitely not as many as Yang Xiaotian.

If the two elders, Wang and Lu, of the Wang family had not died, it would have been possible for them to compete with Meng Xiaodong in terms of lineage. However, the Wang family in Dadong City is now ruled by the younger generation, and it is impossible for them to be compared with Meng Xiaodong.

"When you get old, you're not so interested in money. It's better for you to live a more relaxed life." Meng Xiaodong smiled and shook his head, obviously choosing to refuse.

Lin Yuan nodded, "That does make sense."

He actually understood Meng Xiaodong's thoughts.

Zhang Dong and Meng Xiaodong of this era probably haven't seen each other for many years... No, it should be since Zhang Dong's wife gave birth to Zhang Xianguang in 42, or even earlier, when Zhang Dong married another woman, Meng Xiaodong probably hasn't seen Zhang Dong again.

But just because they haven't met each other doesn't mean that Meng Xiaodong doesn't pay attention to Zhang Dong's every move.

Zhang Dong stopped Lin Yuan from expanding the Peace Hotel. Meng Xiaodong must have known about this situation, but she just chose not to help either side and did not stop Wang Lu, Yang Xiaotian and others, which was considered good.

of course.

The main reason was that Meng Xiaodong had also been to the Peace Hotel and stayed there for a night. He was somewhat influenced by the supernatural white fog and had a slight favorable impression of the Peace Hotel.

Otherwise, maybe Meng Xiaodong should help Zhang Dong now.

"Boss Lin, I actually have another question I want to ask, but I don't know if it's appropriate." Meng Xiaodong suddenly spoke.

"Then don't ask." Lin Yuan said seriously. Seeing Meng Xiaodong's slightly surprised expression, he couldn't help but laugh. "It's just a joke. Granny Meng, you will be a partner of our store in the future. If you have any questions, just ask directly. I will tell you everything I know."

Well, I am speaking from the perspective of the "store manager", not from the perspective of "him".

Meng Xiaodong nodded. She also understood this, but it was not important. What was important was her next question. "As far as I know, Boss Lin's Peace Hotel has been open for many years, even longer than an old woman like me. Now Boss Lin has returned after more than 40 years to open a restaurant, and he wants to do it with great fanfare. Then... where is Boss Lin of this era? What are his thoughts now? Do you need to discuss it?"

Yes!

What about Him of this age?
Wang Chaling and his family of three had discussed this point before, but they did not continue the discussion in depth due to the development of the matter. Now that they heard Meng Xiaodong bring it up, they were also looking forward to Lin Yuan's answer.

In comparison, Yang Xiaotian is not that curious.

Where is he in this era, how powerful is he, why did he conceal the existence of the Peace Hotel, and how big is the problem here?

What are the answers to these questions?
Lin Yuan glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "Grandma Meng, please stop joking. Look at how old I am. This was more than 40 years ago. I was not even born in this era. How could I be in this era?"

Want to test his background?

Lin Yuan was not lying at all. Even if he said that, these people would not be able to pursue anything.

There's nothing we can do about it, since he's still wearing the vest of "store manager"!
Now he is just an ordinary person who cannot be more ordinary. But how is it possible for an ordinary person to live for more than forty years and still be like a young man?
This unscientific!

The character of the "store manager" is a normal person who believes in science. In this case, there is nothing wrong with this answer.

If you have anything you want to ask, just ask "Him" to avoid these people from having wild thoughts.

However, speaking of asking "him", Lin Yuan's attention shifted from here back to the Peace Hotel, because... Zhang Youhong's residual soul came again!
During the last virtual game, Zhang Youhong's remaining soul ran to the Peace Hotel in the dead of night, and self-righteously concluded that one had to pass three levels to see "Him".

The first step is to enter the store.

The second level is to step onto the second floor.

The third level is to step onto the third floor.

The simple and rough rules for passing levels were just something Lin Yuan watched for fun at the time. After Zhang Youhong passed the so-called level, in order to prevent Zhang Youhong from feeling that she was so easily guessed, he threw her directly into the virtual game.

Then?

There was nothing else to do. I failed to defeat the BOSS in the virtual game, so I went back to my own place.

Later, Fang Shiming made a fuss about marrying the ghost catcher Lao Fan, so Lin Yuan temporarily put the matter behind him.

As a result, tonight, Zhang Youhong came here again to challenge the level!

The gatekeeper ghost Lao Fan also lives on the second floor and is not at the door. Instead, there is only the three-headed hellhound in the doghouse and the starving ghost at the door.

At this moment, Zhang Youhong is at this first level.

What was different from the last time was that the moment she arrived, the two guard dogs woke up directly from their "sleeping" state and stood in front of her.

Judging from the situation, it was clear that as long as she dared to take a step forward, they would attack her without hesitation, and would fight to the death.

"The intensity has increased? Was it because of the benefits of passing the level for the first time last time?" Zhang Youhong had a headache.

Starving ghosts are okay, although their ability to eat ghosts is terrifying, and there are a lot of ghost slaves at different stages, and they are fed so many "bones" by the "store manager", which increases their horror. But in Zhang Youhong's eyes, they are just that, and ghost riders and evil spirits who have not grown to the level of the Seven Elders of the Republic of China are completely looked down upon by her, a remnant soul.

The three-headed dog of hell is different.

Although it looks like a dog, it has gathered all the supernatural powers of Luo Wensong in one body. Even because it has eaten a lot of "bones", its level of terror may not be less than Luo Wensong.

The only thing that is unclear is what methods this three-headed dog of hell has in using supernatural powers.

If she could learn half of Luo Wensong's skills, it would be very difficult for her to enter this door today.

"Let's give it a try first."

Zhang Youhong came here tonight, of course not to take a walk, but to actually meet "Him".

Four puppets appeared beside her, but unlike before, these puppets were no longer just puppets. Instead, they were wearing cheongsams and red high heels.

It looks similar to Zhang Youhong's outfit, except that it has no face.

Then the four puppets faced each other and began to tidy up each other's heads, and in the process, their body shapes were changing rapidly.

Not only the appearance, but also the body shape, clothes, etc., are undergoing earth-shaking changes!
This action ended quickly, and what appeared again was no longer the puppet that seemed real, but Luo Wensong, Luo Qian, Li Qingzhi and... Luo Wensong.

Well, two Luo Wensong.

"My current strength is far from recovered, but all I need to do is to entangle you."

During its heyday, the puppets made by Zhang Youhong using this method could have 60% of the supernatural powers of their original owners.

Don't underestimate this fact, as it's only 60% of the supernatural power. You should know that as long as she is given time, she can make several, dozens, or even hundreds of such puppets.

By then, even if we use numbers to pile up, we will be able to kill the real owner!

She alone can rebuild many Republic of China teams. She is a true strategic-level ghost rider. Even though she is just a remnant soul now and cannot fight against the six-headed dog of hell and the starving ghosts, she can still hold them back for a short period of time.

The four dressed-up puppets took the initiative to launch the attack, but the difference in strength was too great. After just a confrontation, they were torn apart by the three (six) headed dog of hell and swallowed by the starving ghosts.

Then the two guard dogs returned to their kennels.

It was not that they received an order to let Zhang Youhong go, but with the commotion just now, Zhang Youhong had already taken the lead and stepped into the Peace Hotel.

Passed the first level!

"No one came to play virtual games today. I shouldn't be dragged into virtual games again."

With the experience from last time, Zhang Youhong made special inquiries before coming here tonight. However, when she stepped into the door of Peace Hotel, she was still dumbfounded.

only because……

"Meng Xiaodong?! And..."

Looking at the people in the lobby and the simple decoration around, Canhun·Zhang Youhong's mind was a little confused, "Where... am I?"

"Xiao Zhang? Why are you here when you're not looking after the store in Dadong City? And..."

How did you get here?
Among the people present, Yang Xiaotian was probably the only one who was still unfamiliar with Zhang Youhong, while Wang Chaling became a substitute for the others and asked this question.

At the same time, he secretly glanced at Lin Yuan, as if he was guessing something.

"Did you encounter any problems in the store and come to find Xiao Liu?" Lin Yuan gave an explanation.

Zhang Youhong is still a little confused. She has thought that after passing the first level, she will enter some unknown ghost realm at the second level.

In fact, the appearance of Meng Xiaodong, Yang Xiaotian, and Wang Chaling's family of three was indeed consistent with her guess, but the appearance of Lin Yuan overturned all her ideas.

Now that Lin Yuan gave an answer, she thought about it for a while and finally agreed.

During that brief period of thinking, she also understood the current situation. This was clearly the Peace Hotel in the Gengshen year!

So I came here because this is related to my second level?

"It's a bit late, but Xiao Liu is taking over at the cashier counter, you can just go find her." Lin Yuan waved his hand, as if he was going to chase someone away.

This made Zhang Youhong feel doubtful again:

Could it be that I guessed wrong?

"Youhong, I heard that you are doing well now?" Meng Xiaodong suddenly spoke.

Zhang Youhong turned her head and looked at Meng Xiaodong, who looked very old. She suddenly laughed and said, "I'm fine. I've been learning how to run a restaurant recently. By the way, boss, you can't handle everything here by yourself. Do you need my help to take care of everyone? Tea or midnight snacks?"

She finally figured it out.

It was definitely not an accident that I was here. Without the permission of the "store manager", I would never have been able to come here.

This also shows that the second level of test is indeed here.

But there seemed to be only one thing she needed to do here. Sure enough, after she proposed the idea, Lin Yuan agreed immediately, "Okay, I'm a little hungry, let's sit down together, eat something, drink some water, and then talk in detail about promoting the restaurant."

As for Zhang Youhong?
This is indeed the second level that Lin Yuan arranged for Zhang Youhong:

service!

As long as Zhang Youhong works as a waitress here tonight, even if she passes the second level, she won’t be able to pass the third level anyway.

Unless he wants to see her as "him", otherwise just stay here honestly. If you don't, then come and work for him for nothing!

Zhang Youhong came to the kitchen and was relieved to find that all the ingredients and tea were available.

What she feared the most was that a good cook cannot cook without rice, but things were going so smoothly that she began to doubt: Is this hurdle so easy to pass?

Of course Lin Yuan would not deliberately make things difficult for her.

This level is to make her life more convenient. She doesn't want to go without food or water.

Under Zhang Youhong's service, several people sat down at a round table. Everyone was talking and laughing, and they all supported Lin Yuan.

There is no way, because everyone here, including Meng Xiaodong, needs Lin Yuan's help.

Otherwise, if we really want to discuss something, what is there to talk about?

Promoting the Peace Hotel is a hard requirement of Lin Yuan, and he also gave a 1% rebate. Although this rebate is a bit low, it can add up to a lot!

Because of Zhang Dong, Meng Xiaodong will not agree, but he will not stop it either, but remain neutral.

"The four new customers just now spent seven yuan each, a total of twenty-eight yuan, and according to the rebate, it is two yuan and eighty cents. In this way, these rebates will be recorded in the store's account in the future. You can come directly to use them when you need them. Of course, you can also withdraw them. Considering that the face value of the commemorative coin is only three yuan, you can only withdraw it if you have more than three yuan. How do you do?"

There was naturally no problem with the plan proposed by Lin Yuan, and Wang Chaling's family would not argue with Lin Yuan over such a trivial matter and offend Lin Yuan for no reason.

However, Wang Chaling raised a point, "Boss Lin, I have always had an idea about the commemorative coins, and I just happened to talk about this today. Do you think the denomination of this commemorative coin is too small? If it is only three yuan, most of the time... Mom, why are you pulling me?"

Looking at her son's confused look, the woman was so angry that she laughed.

This brat!
You don’t look stupid normally, so why did you suddenly ask such a stupid question today?

The currency used for consumption in the Peace Hotel is commemorative coins. There are only three denominations of commemorative coins, that is, three yuan, and there are some dishes in the restaurant that are worth seven yuan.

The price of the maintenance device is fifty yuan.

These prices cannot be directly solved by using commemorative coins with a face value of three yuan. What does this indicate?
The Peace Hotel has never cheated its customers, but if you don’t have enough denominations, you can’t make change. What should you do if you still want to buy something?
Of course, I can only pay more money, and try to make up for the extra money so that I won’t suffer any loss!

But this is still the customer's own choice, and no one dares to ask the "store manager" what to do with the remaining two dollars if the product only costs seven dollars but he pays nine dollars.

Everyone knows that the "store manager" is stingy, so if you really ask this question, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

Just like Wang Chaling now!

Anyone with a little bit of common sense should know that there is a 99% chance that the "store manager" did this on purpose, wanting to use this method to promote consumption.

You are so good, you come and cut off the "store manager's" source of income, are you really not afraid of death?
"Don't mind it, Boss. This kid sometimes has a confused mind. We will educate him properly in the future and promise not to ask such brainless questions again." Wang Lu expressed his attitude seriously.

Lin Yuan waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Don't be so nervous. At least you called me brother before."

Wang Lu understood, turned around and slapped Wang Chaling on the forehead, "You little brat, your uncle Lin has forgiven you, but you still have to show your attitude and apologize quickly, right?"

Wang Chaling: “Ah?”

"Call for help, keep shouting, what are you saying?" The woman also slapped him.

At this point, Wang Chaling finally behaved himself and called out that name obediently: "I'm sorry, Lin, Lin...Uncle Lin!"
