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

Lu Zhaoyang heard someone shouting at the top of their lungs on the phone.

"Waiter, six more bottles of beer!"

A chorus of buzzing sounds filled the air.

Lu Zhaoyang listened to the sounds on the phone, somewhat surprised and astonished.

He had complete faith in Li Jianxiang's skills.

However, the restaurant's location and the surrounding community environment are not very optimistic, which is also an objective condition.

He felt that no matter how good the skills were, it was inevitable to go through a difficult period in the early stages.

How is it possible that the store was so popular right after opening?

"Did Brother Xiang launch some kind of shocking promotional event?"

Lu Zhaoyang guessed.

Otherwise, it's a bit hard to explain.

It's not uncommon for some restaurants to go to great lengths to create a buzz for their grand opening, even resorting to expensive promotional activities.

Lu Zhaoyang naturally assumed that Li Jianxiang had organized a big event on short notice.

"Activity?"

Wei Kai hesitated for a moment while listening to the phone call. "Half-price beer? Is that so scary?"

"this one?"

Lu Zhaoyang was stunned.

During the opening period, offering free drinks wouldn't be too outrageous, and half-price drinks are certainly not scary at all.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Zhaoyang's curiosity grew, and he decided to go and check it out that afternoon.

The old man with the black hair pricked up his ears and listened intently.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Lu Zhaoyang had hung up the phone, he immediately asked.

"It's alright, sir. A friend of mine is just going over to patronize his business..."

Lu Zhaoyang was unaware of the details and did not speak rashly.

……

3 PM.

Lu Zhaoyang appeared at A Xiang Barbecue.

Upon entering, the air conditioning in the store was blasting.

Several waiters were engrossed in eating their lunch.

At a table a little to the side, Li Jianxiang sat opposite a woman who looked to be in her thirties and had short hair and dressed smartly.

The two of them occupied a table by themselves and were eating and chatting.

"It's definitely too late today," the short-haired woman said calmly, breaking the steamed bun in half.

"I know it's too late, but as soon as possible, the sooner the better. Even if we have to pay more, everyone else will be paid the same. If the workload continues like this for the next few days, everyone will get an extra bonus."

Li Jianxiang kept his head down, shoveling food out of his stainless steel bowl, and spoke very quickly.

"Brother Xiang".

Lu Zhaoyang walked over and greeted him.

"Zhaoyang!"

Li Jianxiang's face lit up with joy when he saw Lu Zhaoyang appear.

He is indeed the major shareholder of this store now, but all the funds came from Lu Zhaoyang.

From the renovation to today's opening, no one knows or can understand the pressure Li Jianxiang has been under.

Today, the lunch business finally gave him some peace of mind.

As a result, he felt much more relaxed when facing Lu Zhaoyang.

"Zhaoyang, please sit down. I'll introduce you to someone."

Li Jianxiang pointed to the short-haired woman beside him and smiled, "This is our store's lobby manager, Su Rui."

Then, Li Jianxiang looked at Su Rui and introduced her earnestly, "Su Rui, this is our store's investor, Lu Zhaoyang. You haven't met him yet, have you?"

"Hello, Manager Su."

Lu Zhaoyang sized up the other person.

He had never met Su Rui, but he had certainly heard of her name.

As the store manager, Li Jianxiang should focus his main efforts on the kitchen.

Therefore, an experienced person is needed to oversee things from the front.

Su Rui was poached by Li Jianxiang with a high salary.

Having just started working these past two days, Lu Zhaoyang only knows his name and hasn't met him yet.

Lu Zhaoyang's first impression of her was that she was a woman who could definitely control the situation.

"Hello, Mr. Lu."

Lu Zhaoyang was sizing her up, but Su Rui was also sizing him up.

Within two days of joining the company, she had heard about this young investor not only from Li Jianxiang but also from other employees.

She never expected that the other party would be so young.

He looks to be about the same age as her brother.

The young boss in front of me has a clean and easygoing demeanor, yet exudes confidence.

Lu Zhaoyang exchanged a few simple pleasantries. Although he couldn't see what the lunchtime business was like, he could tell from their discussion and the tired expressions of the others present.

Even if the level of busyness isn't as exaggerated as Wei Kai described, it should still be excellent.

"Are you short-handed? I'm free anyway, do you need any help?" Lu Zhaoyang asked with a smile.

Li Jianxiang was busy eating when Su Rui chuckled and said, half-jokingly and half-seriously, "If President Lu is really interested, you can work as a waiter. We are indeed short-staffed right now."

"No need to call me President Lu, just call me by my name..."

"Zhaoyang, are you kidding me...?"

Li Jianxiang swallowed his food, then hurriedly said, both amused and exasperated, "How are we supposed to pay you a salary if we let you work as a waiter?"

"The waiter should just pay me the amount he's owed!"

Lu Zhaoyang looked serious. "Brother Xiang, you don't think we're so close that you're trying to deduct my salary, do you?"

"no……"

Li Jianxiang was speechless for a moment.

Lu Zhaoyang remained serious, as if he were conducting an interview: "Don't underestimate me. I'm not without experience. Back in college, I worked part-time at a restaurant for two months. To be frank, I was promoted in a very short time and put in charge of the busiest area."

Only then did Li Jianxiang realize that Lu Zhaoyang was serious.

"Zhaoyang, if you really don't mind the trouble, you've really helped the shop a lot. Business is much better than expected today. We're short on time to hire people right now. And this is only noon. We'll have to set up a stall outside in the evening, so the pressure will be even greater. We really need more manpower."

Don't worry!

Lu Zhaoyang was indeed serious.

He really enjoyed the feeling of earning cash by doing short-term jobs, since he had earned 80 yuan last time.

Lu Zhaoyang looked at Su Rui and said, "Manager Su, please assign me any tasks you like."

"Okay, then there's no President Lu now." Su Rui smiled faintly.

"certainly!"

Even Li Jianxiang said so, so Lu Zhaoyang was even more eager to see just how good the business could be.

"Okay, everyone, go outside and set the table."

As evening approached, Su Rui called the waiter to set up the tables and stools outside.

This is where the shop's advantages become apparent.

This row of shops is higher than the road below, and it is separated by a perimeter, forming an independent area.

This makes it much easier for these shops to set up outdoor stalls.

In particular, the neighboring houses on both sides are still empty, so this place is practically theirs to enjoy all to themselves.

If you don't consider the kitchen's capacity, it can seat as many people as possible.

The table was set up quickly.

The wooden tables and stools were all new and arranged neatly, giving them a very impressive and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Not to mention Yun Zhao, even outside, Lu Zhaoyang had never seen so many tables set up outside.

"If this place were full, it would be amazing!"

Lu Zhaoyang couldn't help but sigh.
