In an environment where resources were scarce, Gu Fangting and Jiang Xun were shocked to see so much food!
“This-this-this… Older Cousin, I… We don’t need that much!”
Oh no, ingredients were best when they were fresh. If they were kept for too long, they would spoil!
Gu Qingyao laughed and said, “I know you won’t be able to finish all this, but other larger restaurants are getting their supplies here too. In the future, you can buy whatever supplies you need from here. There will be someone specially in charge of supervising this place in the future. You can come and get what you need.”
Gu Fangting: “…”
Jiang Xun: “…”
They exchanged a glance, and Gu Fangting gulped. “Older Cousin, is it true? This… isn’t this a particularly wonderful resource for restaurants? I… If I open an even bigger restaurant in the future, is there enough food here to supply it?”
Gu Qingyao nodded. “Uhm. In the short term, there will be enough for you. Even if you open a few restaurants, it won’t be a problem. If your business expands in the future, you can also get your supplies here. Or you can look for your own sources.”
Gu Fangting: “…”
My God!
This was wonderful!
“Ah ah ah ah, Older Sister, you’re amazing. I must do more business with you in the future, ah ah ah!”
Gu Fangting squealed as she rushed towards Gu Qingyao. She felt that she was about to make a fortune, ha ha ha ha!
The two of them were so excited, they happily rushed back to do up their restaurants, so they could open as soon as possible.
As for Gu Qingyao, she finished making her arrangements and went to a cafe.
Cafes were still rare at the present, but this was the capital after all. Although there were few cafes, they still existed.
A rather pretty woman was waiting in a private room.
When she saw Gu Qingyao enter, she immediately stood up with a smile. “Miss Gu, you’ve finally arrived. I have been waiting impatiently in Hong Kong!”
Gu Qingyao raised her brows and said with a smile, “You’ve grown impatient? It’s been so many years, can’t you remain calm?”
The pretty woman pouted. She was quite cute. “I can’t help it. I just can’t forget about it! I must have my revenge. I’ve been waiting for so long that I’m about to explode. Finally, I can come back and do something big!”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
She shook her head. She really did not know what to do with this woman.
“Has the storefront been renovated? I’ll take a look in a few days. It’s time to start our business.”
The woman was incredibly excited to hear that. “Yes, yes, it’s done. I’ve renovated it according to your specifications, and everything is completed. I can bring you there now if you want to have a look! Have you prepared the ingredients? If you have, we can start straight away. I’ve even brought the chef along.”
Gu Qingyao nodded. “It’s ready. Everything has been stored in the warehouse. If you’re ready, we can start in a couple of days! I’ll come and take a look in the afternoon.
“Oh, and don’t attract too much attention. The market here is very large. You don’t need to advertise much. As soon as you open, you will have customers. Don’t worry.”
The woman’s eyes widened. She seemed astonished!
“What? No… no need to advertise? Don’t attract attention?”
She immediately looked piteous. “Please, don’t do that! I’ve already thought of lots of ways to make a splash. This… this… this… are you trying to suffocate me? I want revenge ah ah ah!”
Gu Qingyao was rendered speechless by this crazy woman!
She had been abandoned by the man whom she loved. She could not bear to continue living in China, so she ran away to Hong Kong and led a hard life there. She finally made some money, but her only relative, her mother, became seriously ill. She grew impoverished again when she paid for her mother’s treatment. Then in a worse turn of luck, she even fell seriously ill.
She had been desperate when she met Gu Qingyao!
