Chapter 155 Let’s Open a Restaurant
In the evening, the kitchen cooked the lobster according to Shen Yitian's request.
Shen Yitian actually couldn't tell what kind of lobster it was, so she just asked them to steam it with garlic, and then boil the lobster head into soup to make lobster soup rice.
After the rice porridge is served, sprinkle a layer of crispy rice flowers on top.
This method is not uncommon in her world, and it tastes pretty good.
She ate a small bowl of rice porridge, and the taste was amazing, even better than what she had eaten before.
For dinner, she ate two small bowls of rice and a lot of lobster meat, and actually felt a little full.
While taking the opportunity to deliver food to Grandma Li, she took a walk and called Ye the Hunter to join her.
This person doesn't seem to have any intention of going back, so it's not appropriate to let him stay in the village.
Doesn't he need to pay back the money? Then find him something else to do so that he can make money while taking the first step in starting his own business.
"Doing business?" Ye Liehu raised his voice and looked at her in surprise.
"Well, you are a good cook, you can open a restaurant." Shen Yitian said with a smile.
Although Lingnan is remote, Shen Yitian found that there were still quite a few people there when she came from the county town.
"What should we sell in a restaurant?" Ye Liehu was a little amused.
"Selling seafood." Shen Yitian said seriously.
"This is Lingnan. The fish and shrimps near the sea are the least valuable." said Ye Liehu.
Shen Yitian certainly knew this. This seafood might be fresh for outsiders like her, but it was not so fresh for people who were born and raised in Lingnan.
But just because the ingredients are the same doesn’t mean the taste will be the same.
When Shen Yitian was stocking up on supplies, she also stocked up on recipes and some ingredients and cooking methods for dishes. With the skills of the chef brought by Ye Liehu and Grandma Li, it should not be difficult to make some dishes delicious.
"How can we know if we can run the business in a crowded place like the county town if we don't give it a try?" Shen Yitian said with a smile.
Ye Liehu opened his mouth, but he was not here to open a restaurant.
If he goes to the county town to open a restaurant, he will definitely not be able to stay with Shen Yitian. What's the point of him staying here?
"Since you don't want to leave, you can't just stay in this exiled village and live there forever," Shen Yitian continued.
"I won't force you to stay, but if you want to stay, let's try to open a restaurant. You have such good cooking skills, you will definitely make the restaurant prosperous."
Ye Liehu didn't say anything, but he didn't refuse either.
Shen Yitian continued to talk about her plan to open a restaurant, how to decorate it, and what dishes she could make. She spoke in an organized manner.
By the time she finished speaking, the two of them had already walked to the side where the house was being built. Grandma Li and Xiao Wei supervised the construction here every day, and they looked visibly older.
Seeing that Grandma Li was still working so hard at her age, Shen Yitian told her to go back and live in the rented house over there.
But Grandma Li was worried about the materials for building the house. You know, she bought the best materials at the request of Shen Qingshan and Shen Zhuohang. If she just left them here, she would probably suffer from insomnia every day.
"Just leave this place to Xiao Wei at night. If that doesn't work, we can hire someone to help watch over it." Shen Yitian suggested as she helped take out the food from the lunch box.
"That's impossible. Xiao Wei does all the hard work during the day, so how can he watch over the things at night? I'm afraid that even if people move all the things away, he will still be in a dream and unable to wake up." Grandma Li said with a laugh.
Xiao Wei sighed, "I really can't guarantee how alert I can be at night."
After all, I have been moving and carrying things all day long and never stops.
"You should eat something soon. It's my fault for not thinking it through." Shen Yitian smiled awkwardly.
She had indeed not thought this through carefully enough, and she had not come here much during the day, so she did not know that Xiao Wei had to do so much physical work every day.
"I can come over to help watch over the place at night. During the day, I can also come over after helping Tian... and Miss Shen finish cooking. I can do any physical work." Ye Liehu volunteered.
Before Grandma Li and Xiao Wei could say anything, Shen Yitian rejected the proposal.
"No, when you have free time, you should go to the county town to look for a location for a restaurant."
Judging from her behavior, I'm afraid that restaurant will have to be opened.
"But I have never opened a restaurant, so I don't know how to choose a location." Ye Liehu smiled bitterly.
"Go and have a look for two days first, then go to other restaurants and have a look at the seats, and then try their dishes." Shen Yitian had her own plans.
"Miss, are you going to open a restaurant?" Grandma Li interrupted after hearing the conversation between the two people.
Shen Yitian nodded and said, "I can't expect my father and second brother to come all the way to send me money when I get to Lingnan."
Moreover, her goal is not just to open a restaurant.
"Since you insist, I will go and take a look. However, I can't guarantee that I can choose a good place." Ye Liehu seemed to be unable to convince her and could only agree.
Shen Yitian was still very excited: "Don't worry, I'll arrange a time and see if I can go with you."
When he heard that they were going to go together, Ye Liehu's eyes seemed to brighten instantly.
"You mean, you don't want me to open a restaurant by myself?"
Shen Yitian exclaimed, "How can I let you open it alone? Of course we should be partners."
One provides the capital and the other provides the technology. Isn’t this the best partnership?
"Since it's a cooperation, that's fine. But I may not be able to be the chef in the restaurant all the time, but I can bring two people out." Ye Liehu's mouth corners raised slightly, and he seemed to be in a much happier mood than before.
"Okay, then you can make your own arrangements. I can't stay in the restaurant all the time, and I'll have to arrange for a manager."
After the two of them said this, they decided to open a restaurant and no one could stay there.
They looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"If no one can go there anymore, will this restaurant still be open?" Ye Liehu asked first.
"Open it, of course we have to open it." Shen Yitian replied.
"My father has so many shops, can he really guard every one of them? As long as there are capable people, I can check on them from time to time. This won't be a problem."
Shen Yitian wasn't worried about this at all. The original owner had studied business and had seen the operating models of various stores before she transmigrated into the book.
Maybe things won’t go smoothly from the beginning, but as long as the food is cooked well, none of these will be a problem.
But on Grandma Li's side, it looks like it will take a few more days to build the house.
Seeing that Grandma Li’s newly recovered body was about to be ruined again, she thought that she should hire two people to come and look after things.
Even if she was worried at night, she would be asked to go back to the rented yard to have a good rest during the day.
While they were talking animatedly, Yue Niang had already started cooking dinner at the place where she and Grandma Li had decided to build the house.
She had no one to help her, and she had to take care of the children, level the floor, and cook. She made herself a mess in just one afternoon.
