Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 441 Jie Kuang's Departure
After Yan Jiekuang signed the contract with Wen Yun and Yang Lingling, he officially handed the store over to them. However, Yan Jiekuang still introduced some of the store's conditions and some purchasing channels in detail. The only thing the two girls had to learn was to make coffee and desserts.

In the following days, Yan Jiekuang took them under his wing. Both girls were extremely smart and could learn anything quickly. Just like that, after a week, Yan Jiekuang no longer went to the store often.

A week later, news came from Shanghai that Sun Daming's efficiency was quite good, and the person bribed by Zhang Erzhu from the law firm was the vice president of that law firm.

Another unexpected person is the assistant of the lawyer Wen Shijie, who is also his student, named Zhang Wen. He was also bribed by Zhang Erzhu's company and was just waiting for the Keda Group to hand over the original evidence to them.

The person who was bribed by Kodak Group's Shanghai company was caught on the spot and has now been handed over to the police. However, this person makes Ji Lian feel sad. This person was personally selected by Ji Lian to be Yang Liwei's assistant, a college student from Shanghai named Wang Peng. What makes Ji Lian even more angry is that according to his account, the reward this time was only 10,000 yuan.

Yang Liwei pointed at his nose and cursed: "How worthless you are."

Now Zhang Erzhu's company, that is, Runsheng Company, is a little panicked because the trial will be held in two days. All the people in their company who have contact with these people have been invited by the police for tea.

Yan Jiekuang finally put his heart at ease, and then another piece of good news came. Because this incident had such a huge impact in Shanghai and involved two large companies, all of Zhang Erzhu's accounts in Shanghai had been frozen, and Zhang Erzhu's company had also been shut down, waiting for the final outcome of the lawsuit.

Yan Jiekuang is now free of worries. Apart from taking care of Xiaohai and Xixi, he is also handling the relevant procedures for going to Switzerland. The invitation letter from Switzerland has already arrived, and if everything goes well, he should set off at the end of May.

Now Yan Jiekuang only goes to three places: one is his parents' home, one is Mrs. Wanzhi's home, and one is his own home.

His family also knew that he was going abroad this month, so they made various requests one after another. The most outrageous one was Xiaopang, who wanted a Swiss Army knife. Yan Jiekuang rolled his eyes and said, "If I take a knife on the plane, I probably won't be able to come back. Let's see if it can be checked in."

On May 20th, Yan Jiekuang went to his parents' house carrying a leg of lamb. Yan Bugui was sitting in a corner of the teahouse, drinking tea. No one knew what he was thinking about. Yan Jiekuang walked over and called out, "Dad."

Yan Bugui looked up and saw that it was the third brother. He stood up and said, "I was just thinking about you and here you are. Let's go home. I want to discuss something with you."

Yan Jiekuang looked at his father suspiciously, but followed him back to the west wing. Yang Ruiping did not go out, but was watering the flowers in the yard. When he saw that it was Yan Jiekuang, he wanted to take the things in his hand. Yan Jiekuang quickly stopped him and said, "Mom, don't get involved. I'll put it in the kitchen directly."

Yan Jiekuang walked towards the kitchen, and Yan Bugui urged him from behind, saying, "Hurry up, I have something to talk to you about."

Yan Jiekuang came out of the kitchen and followed Yan Bugui to the main hall. Yang Ruiping poured a glass of water for Yan Jiekuang. After the three of them sat down, Yan Jiekuang said, "What's the matter? Why is it so urgent?"

Yan Bugui said, "Alas, it was your Aunt Wang, the widow Wang, who found me. Sun Xiaolong and his wife were laid off, and now the family has no way to make a living. Widow Wang was so anxious that her mouth was covered with blisters. I couldn't bear to see them like that, so I wanted to help them."

Yan Jiekuang said, "How can we help them? If we want them to work as waiters in a restaurant, Sun Xiaolong will definitely disagree. Even though he doesn't talk much, he is actually very proud."

Yan Bugui glared and said, "What do you know? Just listen to me."

Yan Jiekuang was silent, and Yan Bugui said, "I want to sell the teahouse to them. As for whether they run the teahouse or do something else, I don't care. It's a way out, isn't it?"

Yan Jiekuang looked at his mother, and Yang Ruiping saw the third brother looking at him, so he said, "Widow Wang has had a hard life. We have been neighbors for so many years, so let's help if we can."

Yan Jiekuang knew that Sun Xiaolong had rejected his invitation and did not go to Kodak Group. Since that time, he had blocked his way to Kodak Group. Yan Jiekuang said, "Okay, I have no objection. It's good this way. You two old people are free now. You can just go to the restaurant when you have nothing to do." The reason why Yan Bugui asked Yan Jiekuang's opinion was that after all, the teahouse was purchased by Yan Jiekuang from the inside out.

Yan Bugui smiled and said, "Well, there is one more thing. You see, the waiters and cleaners in this private restaurant are all employees of your hotel. It's troublesome for them to run back and forth. Why not recruit a few people nearby? There are many laid-off people in the slums near us, and they are in a difficult situation."

When Yan Jiekuang heard this, he was surprised when his father became so helpful, but he did not object and said, "Okay, I understand. I will talk to Xiaobao. Except for the chef, you can arrange it, okay?"

Yan Bugui stood up and said, "Let's do it. I have something to do and I'll leave first." Then he turned and left. Yan Jiekuang was stunned. Yang Ruiping said, "Your father was the one who asked for it. He didn't want to offend him, so he agreed privately. After agreeing, he regretted it. He was afraid that you would not agree, so he did what he wanted."

Yan Jiekuang didn't care about this matter. Neighbors, every family has difficulties. His father was willing to take care of things and help them, which was also a way to accumulate virtue.

Yan Jiekuang asked, "Shall I cook lunch?"

Yang Ruiping smiled and said, "Okay, you do it, but don't do too much, it's just the three of us."

Yan Jiekuang went to the kitchen, looked at the vegetables his mother bought that morning, and shouted, "Mom, why did you buy so many vegetables?"

"Well, I just couldn't resist people's persuasion. There are vegetable vendors everywhere in the alley now, and I know them all. As soon as they told me to buy something, I bought it." Yang Ruiping walked over and said.

"Well, you're really nice. Don't sell so much next time, or they will go bad. The weather is getting hotter and hotter." Yan Jiekuang advised.

Yang Ruiping nodded and said, "I understand."

At noon, the main dish was stir-fried lamb with green onions. I also made braised pork with potatoes, smashed cucumbers and mixed shredded vegetables, and finally a spinach soup.

Looking at the remaining basket of vegetables on the ground, Yan Jiekuang thought that he had to take some away when he left. His parents were frugal people and had never thrown anything away. If he didn't take some away, they would inevitably eat it. His parents were old and couldn't be used as guinea pigs.

At noon, Yan Bugui came back singing a little song. He smelled the delicious food and said, "Shall we have a drink?"

Yan Jiekuang smiled and nodded, and the father and son started eating with Yang Ruiping in the backyard.

Before this weekend, Yan Jiekuang had completed all the procedures for going abroad. He also booked a flight ticket for the end of the month and was just waiting to depart.

Before leaving, Yan Jiekuang went to take a look at the cafe. It turned out that the two girls made the cafe's business brisk. Yan Jiekuang thought that their new signboard helped a lot. They named the cafe "Sisters Cafe", which was a very attractive name.

Mrs. Wanzhi did not give any instructions about Yan Jiekuang's going abroad, but just asked him to bring back some cheese and red wine when he came back, as she had not tasted them for a long time.

On May 30, Yan Jiekuang boarded a plane to Frankfurt. He needed to transfer there and then fly to Zurich. Before leaving, he also contacted Manager Jon, who told him that he would arrange to pick him up at the airport.

After nearly twenty hours of long journey, the plane slowly landed at Zurich Airport. When Yan Jiekuang walked out of the exit with his luggage, he saw a tall, blond middle-aged man holding a sign with the words "Welcome Mr. Yan Jiekuang!"

Yan Jiekuang walked over and greeted the man in English with a smile, "Hello, I'm Yan Jiekuang, nice to meet you."

"Hello, I'm your personal manager, my name is Jon, the car is outside, let's go." Jon took the suitcase from Yan Jiekuang and led Yan Jiekuang out of the airport.

After leaving the terminal, Jon took him to a Toyota commercial vehicle. Jon took two quick steps to open the door, and Yan Jiekuang got in the car without any hesitation.

Jon put his luggage away and got into the car. He signaled to the driver that it was time to drive, and the car slowly drove out of the airport.
