Chapter 570 Did Elder Sister Become Wild at Heart?

Finding investors and merchants to merge with isn’t something that can happen overnight, it can only be added to the plan to proceed gradually.

As for the distributor, it’s not entirely out of the question. Over at Ning Ge’s side, there was a childhood friend who took an interest in their family’s jam and even asked if they could be an agent. It’s just that Ning Ge had other things on her mind at the time and didn’t pay much attention to it. Now it seems, it’s time to get back in touch with them.

The two of them continued to discuss the matter of the factory canteen. According to Cheng Su’s idea, they might as well hire someone directly, train them at the Joy Soon Loy Restaurant and then transfer them to the factory. As for the procurement of ingredients, they would also decide the meat and vegetables on their side, which would then be uniformly purchased and delivered by Joy Soon Loy.

Of course, the salaries would naturally be kept separate, just like the new fast-food restaurant, with their own financial management and accounts.

Ning Ge also knew that Cheng Su was planning to open a branch. After hearing her proposal, he said, "You really know how to make full use of resources. It’s almost like you’re setting up a chain restaurant."

Cheng Su’s eyebrow raised, "Waste not, want not! But what you say does seem a bit ahead of its time. If conditions permit, it’s not impossible to develop in that direction."

The concept of a chain restaurant company was exciting to hear. If they pulled it off, that would be taking their business to the next level!

Seeing her calculating look, Ning Ge said, "You’re not thinking of going through all this again, are you? Your new fast-food restaurant isn’t even open yet!"

Cheng Su lifted her chin proudly, "If there’s an opportunity and the conditions are right, why not? Life is all about pushing boundaries!"

She was only twenty-one years old, after all. The rest of her life was still ahead of her, so how could her progress possibly stop here?

As a person, only by constantly moving forward can we experience the unknown sights and roads.

Life is all about pushing boundaries.

Ning Ge repeated this to himself, and it seemed to carry quite a philosophy.

...

Qi Fenglian put down the phone and sat in the living room in a daze, her eyes slightly red.

Taiguo came out of the bathroom and, noticing her expression, couldn’t help but ask, "Elder Sister, what’s wrong? Is there a problem at home?"

Qi Fenglian had just received a call from Yunyun and hung up looking so distressed.

Could it be that there was some trouble at home?

"Ah? No, nothing," Qi Fenglian forced a smile.

Taiguo frowned even more and sat down, saying, "Elder Sister, we’re siblings, is there anything you can’t tell me? Don’t always keep it to yourself; it will only cause more problems and be less comforting."

Qi Fenglian pursed her lips and then said, "It’s nothing really. It’s just that, isn’t tomorrow the Lantern Festival? Your brother-in-law and Yunyun, they all want me to go back home for the festival."

Initially, it was only Zhang Jisheng who talked about her coming back, saying it wasn’t right for the women in the family to be without her during Lantern Festival. He said she should let Cheng Su know and then come back after the festival.

Qi Fenglian had only just arrived a few days ago, how could she now ask for leave to go home so soon?

Moreover, she was working hard to establish good relationships with the staff at the restaurant. In the service industry, especially in places like restaurants and hotels, holidays are always the busiest. Normally, the bosses wouldn’t arrange for time off, and if she were to ask for leave specifically on this day, what would others think of her?

Wouldn’t it just confirm that she was able to take leave because of her family connections? Would others be even more wary of her afterwards?

Qi Fenglian had barely refused twice when Zhang Jisheng immediately became unhappy, accusing her of growing wild-hearted after only a few days and so on, and she couldn’t help but argue with him.

Zhang Jisheng was blunt and couldn’t out-argue her, so he simply told Yunyun on the side that her mother didn’t want her anymore. As a result, Yunyun began to cry and make a fuss on the phone, insisting on her return.

Qi Fenglian was both upset and angry: upset at being separated from her children and angry at her husband for being so misunderstanding and intentionally misleading the child.
