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

Li Jianxiang rationally knew that doing this was too strenuous.

He wanted to find someone to keep an eye on things, but he wasn't entirely comfortable with that.

This restaurant was the starting point for his career to restart, and the fact that it was a property that Lu Zhaoyang had purchased himself added to the psychological pressure of such a huge investment.

Therefore, he has to force himself to give it his all in every aspect.

"Let's do it this way, Brother Xiang."

At this point, Lu Zhaoyang had to raise his voice and sincerely advised, "As a partner, I solemnly protest that you can't shoulder this burden. I understand rushing to meet deadlines and worrying about quality, but it shouldn't come at the cost of your health."

Lu Zhaoyang said firmly, "You are the helmsman of our restaurant. Only when you are in stable condition can our restaurant be stable. You must take good care of yourself."

Li Jianxiang stared blankly at Lu Zhaoyang's serious expression, and was suddenly moved.

For days, his wife's earnest persuasion had failed to ease the tension in his heart, but suddenly it relaxed.

Finally, he nodded with some relief: "Okay, I'll do as you say."

This partner, who was clearly more than ten years younger than him, gave him a sense of confidence and security he had never imagined.

This was something he had never encountered before.

Seeing this, Lu Zhaoyang didn't delay any longer and immediately called Zhang Zhizhong.

The latter, after a brief inquiry, upon hearing that it was an introduction to new business, said there was no need to reschedule and that he would come right now.

So he hasn't even gotten home yet.

Zhang Zhizhong arrived shortly afterward.

Lu Zhaoyang gave a brief introduction, and Zhang Zhizhong immediately understood that it was a 400-square-meter unfinished house for restaurant renovation.

"Completed within a month?"

Zhang Zhizhong was taken aback when he heard about the construction period.

"This timeframe is way too tight!"

"Engineer Zhang, it is indeed quite difficult, but there's no other way; time waits for no one."

Li Jianxiang stubbed out his cigarette and said calmly, "It's already May, and the weather is getting warmer. This is a very important time for the catering industry. We must seize every second to open as soon as possible, so please put in the effort. We can discuss all the costs and other aspects."

As Li Jianxiang spoke, he took out a stack of drawings from his bag and handed them to Zhang Zhizhong: "Engineer Zhang, take a look. These are the drawings I made. Please feel free to point out any problems."

"They're all acquaintances, so the cost is negotiable."

Zhang Zhizhong took the blueprints and began to look through them.

He has been in the renovation business for over ten years, but mostly in home renovation.

I've also done workwear work, but mostly for small, ordinary shops.

The blueprint in his hand at that moment was, simply put, professional.

The blueprints were densely marked, from the layout of the floor plan to the kitchen layout, and more importantly, the wiring, waterproofing, smoke extraction pipes, and fire protection systems—it looked quite impressive.

As the saying goes, an expert can see the details. Although Zhang Zhizhong came from an unorthodox background, he has been doing this for so many years and has come to appreciate the beauty of professionalism.

The drawings perfectly capture the details of the restaurant's interior design.

Whether it's dedicated wiring for high-power circuits, the scope and height of waterproof coatings, duct routing, or fresh air systems...

Every hard indicator is marked with meticulous detail.

He would probably be even more surprised if he knew how quickly it was produced.

"This image is so professionally done, and it's absolutely beautiful!"

Zhang Zhizhong kept praising it as he read.

He took out a cigarette and enthusiastically handed one to Li Jianxiang, asking curiously, "Which company does Manager Li work for? I should have heard of your reputation before."

"Brother Zhang, Brother Xiang doesn't work for a decoration company."

Lu Zhaoyang smiled and took over the conversation.

"Oh?" Zhang Zhizhong was taken aback, clearly quite surprised.

Lu Zhaoyang laughed: "When it comes to skill level, what really sets Brother Xiang apart is his culinary skills. He's an absolute master chef. The owner of this restaurant you're looking at is Brother Xiang!"

"Unbelievable! Unbelievable!"

Zhang Zhizhong shook his head, his face filled with disbelief. "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't have believed it. To be honest, this level of skill and professionalism makes him look like a seasoned designer with formal training!"

"You flatter me, Mr. Zhang."

Li Jianxiang raised his hand and rubbed his temples, a humble smile on his face: "I've learned a little bit by being forced to because I've seen too much. When I first opened my shop, I was inadequate in every aspect and was complained about and had to make rectifications countless times. Later, when I had the opportunity to open a new shop, I took the opportunity to explore and learn little by little, and that's how I got some feel for things. I still don't dare to compare myself to real professionals."

"Mr. Li is too modest. I, Lao Zhang, am not highly educated, to be honest. I do most of the home renovation work myself, and my subordinates are also experts in home renovation. When it comes to on-site scheduling, construction schedule, and personnel management, I can guarantee with my hand on my chest that there will be absolutely no mistakes. But when it comes to specific acceptance standards and kitchen requirements, I can only say that I have a general understanding. I dare not say that I can make decisions on all of them."

Zhang Zhizhong deftly changed the way he addressed her from Manager Li to General Manager Li.

He spoke very frankly, without a trace of bravado.

Even if Li Jianxiang didn't really understand everything, he still had to explain it to others.

Li Jianxiang's face was full of fatigue, but his eyes were still clear. Hearing this, he nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, Engineer Zhang, I have considered these things. You just need to help me keep an eye on the progress of the on-site construction. As for the construction standards, compliance details, and the dimensions of the equipment to be left, I will be responsible for all of these. I will go to the site every day and we will communicate at any time. I won't make things difficult for you."

Zhang Zhizhong nodded, rubbed his hands together, and stared at the blueprints, muttering, "A thirty-day construction period... that's quite a challenge. The construction teams and the coordination of each process must be perfect; there can't be any wasted time. By the way, can this area be worked on at night?"

Li Jianxiang immediately replied, "Sure, no problem. The shop doesn't have to be right next to residential buildings, as long as it's not too noisy."

"That's good, that's good."

Zhang Zhizhong was quite satisfied, and said calmly, "One major difficulty is still coordinating manpower; we need to schedule everything precisely to fit the project timeline..."

"If needed, Brother Zhang, it's okay if I slow down my progress first. Prioritize the shops."

"Xiao Bing probably isn't too happy about it."

Zhang Zhizhong laughed and said, "I really want to go and see the scene right now."

"Mr. Zhang, if it's convenient for you, we can go now," Li Jianxiang said with great enthusiasm.

"Okay, let's go then." Zhang Zhizhong didn't hesitate for a second.

Lu Zhaoyang felt inferior to him.

He used to have this passion for his career, but he eventually exhausted it by working too much overtime.

Now, he just wants to lie down quietly and expresses his disapproval of this ambition.
