I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 683 Heading to Greater New York?
foreign?

Chen Qiaoyang was amused and said, "Minister Cao really knows how to make arrangements. I haven't been abroad for many years. Let the younger generation go, so I don't mess things up."

“No one else can do it, they're not capable enough. It's better if you go yourself. Don't worry, once you get there, our staff overseas will assist you, everything will be fine.”

This was the reason Cao Yanhua had come up with, so naturally Chen Qiaoyang wouldn't refuse so easily.

Without bearing the reputation of punishing someone without teaching them, and at the same time being able to get rid of Chen Qiao Gu, as things stand, there is no indication that any foreign country has been able to enter the Peace Hotel.

Of course, if Chen Qiaoyang does manage to get in through other means, there are other methods available.

Chen Qiaogu's face darkened. He gave Old Qin beside him a deep look and said in a sinister tone, "If I don't agree to go, are you going to remove me?"

"You've misunderstood. Our headquarters isn't a den of robbers; we don't do that kind of thing," Cao Yanhua quickly denied, but his attitude remained firm.

Chen Qiaoyang snorted coldly: "Fine, then tell me where to go. I can also go out and see the scenery abroad, and see if the moon abroad is really rounder than the one in China."

"Okay, then have a safe trip."

Cao Yanhua sent Chen Qiaoyang away and handed him over to Zhao Jianguo to be responsible for sending him abroad.

"This young man won't give up so easily," Old Qin said slowly.

Cao Yanhua nodded. "I know, but as long as he takes this job, it won't matter. Someone will handle the rest. Things aren't peaceful overseas. We don't know how Zhang Jun is doing; he's gone missing. If Chen Qiaoyang can bring Zhang Jun back, we might as well give him another chance."

"I won't listen to your plans. Xiao Cao, my time is running out. I may not be able to continue walking with you. If you have any plans, tell me in advance."

Cao Yanhua was taken aback. Looking at Old Qin's wrinkled and aged face, he felt a surge of emotion in his throat, which became incredibly dry. He had a thousand words in his heart, but he could only utter one word: "Okay."

……

After leaving Dayuan City, Lin Yuan went to Dachang City.

Guo Fan used his employee benefits to locate the branch he could open in Dachang City, near the Shangtong Building, a landmark building in Dachang City.

This building belongs to Yang Jian, as does the Shangtong Building, which is used to coordinate various parties in Dachang City.

Even though Lin Yuan might have some bias towards Guo Fan, since they were both his own employees, he wouldn't show it too much, and Guo Fan's potential was quite good.

Even though he failed in the struggle with Fang Shiming for the position of ghost messenger, he did not completely give up on himself. Instead, he continued to work hard and set his sights on other goals.

Like Lu Zhiwen, he is one of the two biggest "volume kings" at present.

How could Lin Yuan not love an employee like that?
Also, to accommodate Lin Yuan's schedule, and because he needed to go to headquarters to discuss the path to godhood, Yang Jian specifically scheduled the opening time for the evening.

The sun was about to set, but the Shangtong Building was still brightly lit.

Yang Jian stood at the entrance of the branch store with a group of people, waiting for Lin Yuan's arrival.

The people closest to him were Zhang Xiangui and his son Zhang Wei, as well as other prominent figures in Dachang City. However, these were all ordinary people, and Lin Yuan probably wouldn't even leave a trace of their names.

However, there are also those who can control ghosts.

One is Guo Fan. This branch is his quota. Regardless of whether the profits here will be related to him afterward, at least for Lin Yuan, he has to make an appearance.

This is a badge indicating the employee status of the Peace Hotel.

The other one is Li Leping. He did not return to Dachuan City immediately, but instead followed Yang Jian to Dachang City.

It was already past six o'clock in the evening, a very dangerous time for him, but he wasn't in a hurry and instead seemed quite relaxed.

Especially when the white mist appeared, and he felt the strange restlessness in his body disappear, he was completely relieved.

Although having four ferocious beasts hanging on my body doesn't feel good, it's still easier than having a vengeful ghost resurrect.

The eerie bus emerged from the white mist, driven by Lu Zhiwen. Lin Yuan got off the bus alone, without anyone else in tow.

"Brother Yuan, why did you come alone today?" Yang Jian greeted him, somewhat puzzled.

Lin Yuan laughed and said, "How many people could there be? Alright, let's go in first. Xiao Guo, Xiao Li, and Xiao Zhang, you're all here too, it's really lively."

Before Guo Fan and Li Leping could speak, Zhang Wei came up and said with a grin, "Brother Yuan, you still remember me? It's been a year, and you're still as handsome as ever. I can hardly compare to you."

Zhang Xiangui was sweating profusely and quickly pulled Zhang Wei aside.

Others might not know, but how could he not know? The person in front of him, who appeared calm, was a terrifying existence that Yang Jian and the others considered unmatched.

If they really anger this person, none of them will have an easy time.

Of course, what he was most worried about was that he couldn't protect his own son, since he was just an ordinary person himself.

Lin Yuan originally wanted to chat with Zhang Wei for a bit and have some fun, but seeing Zhang Xiangui's humble and ingratiating smile, he immediately lost interest.

"Mr. Zhang is quite cautious, Brother Yuan, please don't mind," Yang Jian explained.

Lin Yuan shook his head and didn't say much. "Let's go, let's go to the store. After we're done here, I still have to go to New York City."

Greater New York?
Yang Jian paused for a moment, seemingly not immediately recalling where that place was.

“New York City? Isn’t that overseas? Mr. Lin, what are you going overseas for?” Li Leping asked.

Only then did Yang Jian recall.

The Greater New York City is indeed located overseas. So, what is the "store manager" going abroad to do? Is he going to expand his business overseas, or is there some other reason?
The Peace Hotel's business has always been within China, at most in places like Tai O.

There is no way for foreign ghost tamers to enter the Peace Hotel. This is why, even now, many overseas ghost tamers still believe that the Peace Hotel is a fabricated lie created in China.

For the same reason, despite the fact that members of the King's Organization entered the Peace Hotel, the country did not pay too much attention to it, and even took more targeted measures.

If the manor owner hadn't brought in capital, exchanging a terrifying manor and a king codenamed Twins for an employee's identity, headquarters would have paid even less attention. But now, the "manager" is actually thinking of going abroad, and if it hadn't been brought up suddenly, none of them would have known about it.

Although it was just a simple trip, it involved too many issues, making the group nervous. However, they had no reason to object to Lin Yuan's itinerary, so they could only inquire about the situation as they walked towards the branch.

If we could dissuade Lin Yuan from his idea, that would be the best outcome.

If there's no other way, then we can only figure out Lin Yuan's purpose before making any further plans.

Yang Jian and Lin Yuan had a good relationship, even though he didn't know why he received more care than others, even if it was just a little more, so he spoke more easily, "Brother Yuan, what are you going to New York City for? Are you planning to develop business?"

Lin Yuan was well aware of these people's ulterior motives, but he pretended not to know. "I'm not planning to expand overseas since the domestic market isn't ready yet. But as you all know, Lao Zhuang is a long-time employee of the store, and he's planning to open a branch in his hometown. It's a perk for the employees, and I can't refuse him since he's offering his own estate."

Sure enough, it was the kings who were stirring up trouble!
Li Leping said, "It seems that everyone's life is getting better. There were hardly any people opening branches before, but recently, they've been opening one after another."

Yang Jian: ? ? ?
Guo Fan: ? ? ?
Li Leping, unaware that he had inadvertently offended an ally, continued, "However, I've heard that the situation abroad is even more chaotic than in China. Mr. Lin, it might be very dangerous for you to go there like this."

“Yes, the world is too chaotic now. Only some important cities and the domestic environment are better. Abroad, due to the general environment, even in big cities, it is basically filled with violence and bloodshed. Brother Yuan, you are in business. If you are targeted by someone, that would be bad.” Yang Jian also said.

By this time, the group had already entered the store. Lin Yuan seemed to have been persuaded, but he still didn't express his opinion, only saying, "Let's open for business first."

"Okay." Yang Jian nodded in agreement.

The opening ceremony was grand and lively, but none of this bothered Lin Yuan. Even the toasts were rarely offered to him, so he seemed quite relaxed.

Yang Jian had been keeping Lin Yuan's trip abroad in mind, so after making an initial appearance, he handed over the reception work to Zhang Wei and his son.

He then went to Lin Yuan's side and continued talking about going abroad.

Li Leping and Guo Fan were also there. Taking advantage of the opportunity just now, they had already sent the message to headquarters. Cao Yanhua was stunned when he heard the news.

He had just sent Chen Qiaoyang abroad, and the destination happened to be New York City.

Now the "store manager" is going abroad, and the place he's going to is also New York City. Is this what they call fate?

"The store manager is very determined and probably won't give up on this option. Fortunately, it's just a branch store. Judging from what the store manager said, he probably doesn't have any plans to be stationed abroad permanently, which is good news."

Lu Zhiwen had just driven the paranormal bus back to headquarters when he heard the news, but he remained relatively calm.

Li Jun frowned and said, “It’s different. As long as the branch opens in New York City and the store manager goes there in person, it means that the Peace Hotel has opened a door to overseas markets. From now on, the Peace Hotel’s resources will no longer belong exclusively to the domestic market, but will be available to the whole world. Perhaps having only one branch overseas will not attract many foreign ghost riders, but this may just be the beginning.”

"Then what should we do? We can't just forcibly control the store manager, can we?"

As soon as Zhao Jianguo finished speaking, he was met with a lot of stares that looked like he was an idiot, and he knew he had said something stupid.

If the "store manager" could be easily controlled by them, even if it came at a huge cost, then headquarters wouldn't have waited until now.

If the Peace Hotel could be controlled, how many terrifying and powerful demon tamers would it produce?
By then, captain-level demon tamers will probably be available in bulk.

But headquarters didn't do that. Did they not want to?

“If we can’t stop it, we can only let nature take its course. However, we can send some people over to see if we can sabotage it,” Shen Liang suggested, adding, “It’s already past six o’clock in the evening.”

Six o'clock in the evening and six o'clock in the morning are very special times.

Leaving aside haunted places like the Ghost Post Office, let's just talk about the Peace Hotel.

The hotel opens at 6 a.m. and closes at 6 p.m. At the same time, a ghostly white mist revives, enveloping the entire Peace Hotel. Without the "manager's" permission, it is impossible to enter or move freely.

It's already past 6 PM, and the "store manager" is still in Dachang City, and he's going to Da Niu City later.

The time in Greater New York City is half a day behind that in Greater Beijing and Greater Chang City. In other words, it is now almost exactly past six o'clock in Greater New York City.

Cao Yanhua frowned and pondered for a long time. "If the store manager wants to go to New York City, it certainly won't be a short trip. He'll probably have to go to the airport to catch a flight. So, Li Jun and Lu Zhiwen, why don't you go and celebrate together? Not for the King of New York City, but for Yang Jian."

“Alright, after all, Yang Jian is one of our own, and moreover, our captain. It’s definitely time to celebrate the opening of a branch in his city.”

"That's the truth."

The group quickly made a decision. As for what happened before?

Before what?
Zhao Jianguo suddenly said, "Minister, I think we should send another gift to Dayuan City, since Captain Yinzi is also a captain in our headquarters."

He Yin'er is indeed the captain, but she is not just a captain; she also has the identities of an employee of the Peace Hotel and the manager of the Ghost Lake Fishpond.

This identity is very important to both He Yin'er and the headquarters.

If He Yin'er hadn't been distracted by her work at headquarters, their plans at the Peace Hotel wouldn't have stalled entirely.

However, no matter what, appearances must not be neglected.

If a few team leaders are sent to celebrate the branch in the city under Yang Jian's jurisdiction, and it turns out that only people are sent to deliver gifts to He Yin'er's side without any important figures going, it could easily lead to misunderstandings.

Even though He Yin'er's personality doesn't seem like that of someone who would care about such things.

But in everything, we should strive to do our best.

“It’s getting late, let’s go in person, it’ll be a way of apologizing,” Cao Yanhua said.

Is it necessary to go this far?

Shen Liang hesitated for a moment, but ultimately said nothing. He quickly packed up and set off with Cao Yanhua.

Cao Yanhua did not bring any ghost tamers; he went as an ordinary person, but as a high-ranking official from headquarters, by plane, which would take some time. Li Jun and Lu Zhiwen, on the other hand, used their ghost domains directly.

When they arrived in Dachang City, they found that the branch there no longer had its main character.
