I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 761 The Year of Gengshen Returns

"Then I'll leave this to you. Let me know as soon as there's any progress. This current time-travel mode is indeed a bit inconvenient."

Lin Yuan was very generous and readily agreed to Wang Xiaoming's request.

However, Wang Xiaoming always felt that he hadn't achieved his goal, but rather that he had been taken advantage of... Oh well, whatever.

As long as it allows me to conduct my research, that's fine.

Since acquiring supernatural powers, his research on the supernatural has reached a deeper level.

Many experiments that were previously impossible or inconvenient to conduct have now become routine, giving him a deeper understanding of the paranormal.

He was almost obsessed with everything in the Peace Hotel, especially.

It is a pursuit and yearning for the truth of the world, an irresistible urge.

“Brother Yuan, your employees are all very capable.” Zhang Youhong suddenly spoke, seemingly praising him, but also seemingly referring to something else.

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "We would rather have fewer but better employees. The employees who come to our store all have their own shining qualities, and you are no exception."

Zhang Youhong's smile became even sweeter.

Guo Fan silently followed behind the two, inwardly complaining:
The boss is really skilled at making empty promises to his employees, and it's not just about material things, but also about offering them spiritual rewards.

Even a monster like Zhang Youhong from the Republican era could be filled up by this pancake, amazing!

“Xiao Guo, you’re the same. So you don’t always have to keep your head down. Hold your head high, find your strengths, and you’ll have a better future.” Lin Yuan suddenly turned around.

Upon hearing this, all of Guo Fan's previous frustration and resentment vanished, and he was as energetic as if he had been injected with chicken blood. He nodded earnestly and said, "I understand, Brother Yuan."

In the year of Gengshen, at the Peace Hotel branch in Dadong City.

As the branch manager, Wang Lu wasn't in a very good mood because there hadn't been much progress on the situation.

Zhang Dong, who was guarding outside Da Dong City, had disappeared. At least, they couldn't find him when they went there. But few people dared to ignore the words Zhang Dong uttered in the paranormal community.

This also meant that even though Wang Lu used his own connections and the Wang family's connections, he still couldn't attract enough customers.

The restaurant remained deserted and quiet.

Only a few owners from the ghost street in Taiping Town would occasionally come over for a meal, chat for a while, and talk about the future, but these were just isolated cases and couldn't bring much help to the branch.

“This won’t do. If we can’t develop the branch, Boss Lin might question our abilities. It doesn’t matter here, but what if it affects my son’s future life?” The woman’s face was full of worry.

When Wang Chaling arrived, his parents didn't actually give him a very warm welcome.

There's no way anyone can be nice to a son who lives a good life relying on the family's wealth, yet scorns and despises the family's legacy, and even thinks about abandoning it all the time.

But as for one's own son, one should discipline him as needed, but also show him the care and love he deserves.

Wang Lu said, "There's nothing we can do. That person's strength is too terrifying. Even my parents can't handle it. Fortunately, that person only made threats and didn't personally target the branch, otherwise, the branch really wouldn't be able to stay open." "Hmph! Do you think Boss Lin is a pushover? Obviously, these two have reached some kind of tacit understanding, which is why things are like this now." The woman snorted coldly, then sighed helplessly, "Now we can only see how their conversation goes. Otherwise, in this era, we might not be able to help our future son much."

This feeling of helplessness is terrible and rare.

The former Wang Lu couple were not only quite strong themselves, but the ghosts of the previous generation of the Wang family who followed them due to their bloodline inheritance were also incredibly terrifying.

Despite being a younger generation, they have overshadowed many veterans in the paranormal community, making them unable to hold their heads high.

But whether in front of the "shop manager" or Zhang Dong, their power, and the power of the entire Wang family, seemed so powerless.

Just then, a burst of light suddenly emanated from the shop's main entrance, which then formed a portal radiating a mysterious aura.

The Wang Lu couple had seen this door several times and recognized it at a glance. It was either the "shop manager" or someone else who had traveled from the future to the year of Gengshen.

The two exchanged a glance, but didn't seem to care much.

During this time, the future Peace Hotel and its "manager" have been busy with a big event and haven't come over for quite some time. However, Meng Xiaodong and Yang Xiaotian from their era, as well as the paper-making shop owner and mask stall owner on Ghost Street in Taiping Town, frequently travel between the two eras.

So, they got used to it.

“Wait a minute, Yang Xiaotian, Meng Xiaodong, and those two bosses, haven’t they all gone there yet?” the woman suddenly said.

The next moment, Lin Yuan was the first to walk out from inside.

Mr. and Mrs. Wang immediately stood up. No longer needing to guess who it was, they hurriedly went to greet them, "Mr. Lin, it's been a long time!"

"Yes, it's been a long time! This is Zhang Youhong, also an employee at my shop. Xiao Guo, you've met before." Lin Yuan introduced the two with a smile.

Zhang Youhong?
Upon hearing the name, Mr. and Mrs. Wang were visibly taken aback, which prompted Zhang Youhong to ask with some curiosity, "Do you two know me too?"

"Yes, I recognize it. The consciousness that was sent into the robot in the store before, I think it also had this name. But you've found your own body now?" Wang Lu asked calmly.

In fact, he had indeed heard of Zhang Youhong, and not for the reason he gave.

However, the events of the Republican era are long past, and the name Zhang Youhong is too distant. His parents only chatted about it casually at the time and didn't know much about it. There was no need to say these things and cause unnecessary trouble.

The information provided about the Peace Hotel alone isn't bad.

Zhang Youhong stared at Wang Lu for a while, then smiled and changed the subject.

"I have some business to attend to here. I'll have to trouble you two with the work at the branch." Lin Yuan briefly explained his purpose for coming.

Wang Lu was taken aback for a moment, then asked doubtfully, "Boss Lin, are you sure you can leave Dadong City?"

"You mean Old Zhang? Don't worry, I'm here to have a good talk with him, and I believe he won't stop me anymore. After all, times are changing, and no one can stop them," Lin Yuan said.

These were calm words, but to Wang Lu and his wife, they were like a thunderclap:
"Manager," are you going to deal with that man?
