“I’ve never opened a restaurant before, so I didn’t know it would be so tiring.”

Ye Linsen ate two pieces of dark chocolate and seemed to be more energetic: "Are all restaurants like ours that never take a break? I feel like a robot now, only working mechanically... Store manager, we are here tonight Can I have a rest?"

"You can rest at night." Li Yichen replied.

"No, what Ye Linsen means is whether we can close the business at night." Chen Sihua explained.

"..."

silence.

Li Yichen opened the jar, fed Chen Sihua and Ye Linsen two more chocolates, and then returned to the kitchen without saying a word.

As long as he doesn't answer, then all negotiations can be ignored.

If it is closed at night, when will the restaurant be able to return... No, how can the restaurant satisfy the needs of the majority of customers? !

Chapter 261

As the last table of customers left, Li Yichen and the others gathered their energy to do the final finishing work.

"Happiness, happiness, true happiness... Only those who always smile will be happy."

Li Yichen made good use of the spiritual victory method, brainwashed himself, laboriously poured out the oil from the fryer, let it cool and then processed it uniformly.

Ye Linsen was helping Peng Cheng wash the dishes at the sink, and Peng Cheng was replaced to clean the lobby. He had been washing the dishes for nearly four hours with a smile on his face. He didn't feel happiness, but his stomach growled and he was hungry. Gotta panic.

"I am starving……"

"I also feel like I'm going to starve to death..."

Chen Sihua, who also cleans the lobby, feels the same way.

When the finishing touches were over, the five of them didn't even have the strength to find a chair to sit on. They just sat on the floor, leaning against the cupboard, beating their calves and wailing in pain.

"Ah...my whole body hurts."

"We need a few minutes' break halfway through."

"It's best to work while eating."

After four busy hours, no one even had time to drink a glass of water. Their faces were pale, their physical strength was discharged, and they lost weight visibly to the naked eye.

"Thank you, bro."

"Everyone has worked hard."

Everyone encouraged each other.

"Ye Linsen, do you think it's easier to live in the lobby or to wash dishes?"

"Both of them are very tired... If we are in the lobby, we won't have any free time at all."

"It's similar when it comes to washing dishes."

Ye Linsen and Peng Cheng briefly exchanged jobs. After dialogue, they unexpectedly solved the geographical conflict between the lobby and the kitchen. Before, everyone would inevitably have some complaints about the division of labor and felt that their own work was the most tiring.

But now, they know that in the restaurant, no matter what kind of work it is, they are almost tired.

"Don't order takeout today. The delivery is too slow. I put all the remaining ingredients together and fried them so that I can eat quickly."

Li Yichen struggled to get up from the floor and walked into the kitchen. Although he was also very tired, he still did not forget to take care of everyone.

"There's leftover rice in the pot, there's soup, mashed potatoes, salad...you guys eat some first."

"Then I'll serve dinner."

Wu Xiayong also followed Li Yichen into the kitchen.

With Li Yichen taking the lead, everyone took action to fill their stomachs. Everyone was tired and hungry, and they were not so particular. They stood in front of the rice cooker, eating rice one bite at a time to fill their stomachs.

A few minutes later, Li Yichen cooked a pot of chowder before inviting everyone to the table for dinner.

"Come here quickly, let's have lunch first. Everyone is very capable today, so eat more."

"Do you feel tired in the lobby? Should I go to the lobby?" Li Yichen looked at Chen Sihua and Ye Linsen and suggested.

"No, you have to fry the chicken."

Everyone immediately refuted that "Li's Restaurant" promoted the restaurant of chef god Li Yichen. If Li Yichen left the kitchen, it would be suspected of false advertising.

"As the old saying goes, if you don't know the craftsmanship, your body will suffer. I understand it now. I'm the only one here who can't make drinks or prepare dishes... A handyman like me can really only wash dishes... "

Peng Cheng's tone was full of envy and yearning for technical jobs. If he had known this, he would have studied cooking with Li Yichen and the others.

At this time, Wang Gaoming came in from the outside, looked at the people who were devouring lunch, and suddenly said with regret: "Originally, the head office wanted to treat you to a big meal today... What a pity."

"!"

"...Why did you say it so late?"

"...But we are full."

"Don't believe him, he just said that deliberately because he saw that we had already eaten."

Li Yichen mercilessly exposed Wang Gaoming's hypocrisy. Wang Gaoming had just told him in the morning that the head office had a financial deficit. How could he have the money to treat everyone to a big dinner now? This was a typical afterthought, and it was purely unjust.

"Ha ha……"

Wang Gaoming smiled, moved a chair and joined secretly. Li Yichen just glanced at him and was already used to it.

He felt that running a restaurant was too tiring. It was not like recording a variety show at all, but more like a labor reform program. Once the customers came, there was no time to stop and rest. It was much more tiring than any variety show he had recorded before.

"Let's take more photos of fancy tour groups in the future... I'm confident that I can do a good job."

"The Cabin in the Woods" and "The Cabin on the Island" are about lack of food, and "Please Give Me a Meal" is about shame.

In comparison, "Sisters Over Flowers" is too easy. It's enough to eat well and play well, as long as Li Yichen can control the budget.

And now that teachers Li Yichen and Dong Qiuping are familiar with each other, if they come back for the second season of "Sisters Over Flowers", it will be much easier than any variety show.

"Oh~"

Wang Gaoming's eyes lit up.

"Where do you want to go?"

"Istanbul, it's beautiful there. We only spent one day there last time, which is a pity..."

Li Yichen thought about it, then pointed at Chen Sihua and the others and said, "The four of them can make another flower series... Youth Over Flowers, how about it? It should also be popular."

After two weeks of getting along, Li Yichen noticed the performance of Chen Sihua and the others, and wanted to get more exposure opportunities for them. Through the running-in of "Li's Restaurant", the four of them have more tacit understanding. I believe that if It would be interesting to record a travel program together, but the final decision lies with Wang Gaoming. After all, only Wang Gaoming's team can make the Fantasia series well.

"Yes, can you?"

The sudden huge surprise enveloped Ye Linsen and the four of them. The four of them stuttered and stared at Wang Gaoming eagerly.

"...Let's finish the restaurant first."

When facing people other than Li Yichen, Wang Gao was obviously not that easy to talk to, and he just refused to talk.

At this stage, the only one who can make Wang Gaoming have the desire to shoot is Li Yichen.

If others want to be recognized by Wang Gaoming, they need to show more effort, laughter and loyalty. Even the performance of the brokerage company behind them will be taken into consideration. Wang Gaoming does not want to encounter another era of film and television. company.

Some time ago, a friend of Wang Gaoming sent word to others that the executive who was making decisions at Times Film and Television to replace Li Yichen had resigned. Wang Gaoming was noncommittal. He was a very generous person and never Individuals will be held accountable.

Even if the chairman of Times Film and Television Company abdicates, it cannot change the result that Times Film and Television Company is blacklisted by Wang Gaoming.

Ye Linsen and the others heard Wang Gaoming's answer. Although they also knew that what Wang Gaoming said was very reasonable and that a good restaurant first was the basis for future cooperation, they still couldn't help but feel disappointed in their hearts.

After lunch, everyone went back to the staff dormitory to take a nap. At four o'clock in the afternoon, they came to the restaurant again to prepare for the evening business.

The business hours in the evening were from five to seven o'clock. The busy two hours passed quickly, and everyone was exhausted again.

But the good news is that today they sold 80 of the 78 portions of chicken prepared. The turnover hit a new high, with daily income reaching 7950 and a profit of nearly 5000. Everyone cheered and the efforts were not in vain.

Chapter 262 Hong Lingjing’s preparations

April NO.14, at 26:[-] pm on Sunday, Hong Lingjing was wearing a black fisherman’s hat, carrying a brown backpack, holding a small silver-white suitcase, and walked quickly like a college student returning to school. Walk outside the airport.

Hong Lingjing has been on a business trip for half a month, and also took half a month off. It has been a month since she was with Li Yichen during the recording of the program. She misses it a little. She knows that Li Yichen and the others are still recording "Li's Restaurant" in Guangdong. , but because I still had important things to attend to, I chose to take the flight back to Donghua Airport instead of going to Guangzhou.

Speaking of this important matter, it actually has something to do with Li Yichen.

That's right, Hong Lingjing is preparing for a new variety show during this period, and has personally inspected the location and traveled abroad for a while.

It has been more than half a year since the recording of "Sisters Over Flowers". Since Dong Qiuping and their schedules could not be adjusted in line, and Wang Muyao was still filming on the crew at this time, Hong Lingjing could only temporarily give up the production of "Sisters Over Flowers" which was bound to be a success. "The idea for the second season of "Grandpas Over Flowers" was turned to preparations for another flower series with an unknown future, "Grandpas Over Flowers."

Speaking of the origin of "Grandpas Over Flowers", it is a coincidence. The inspiration came from a night conversation during the recording of "Sisters Over Flowers".

On the first night they arrived in Dubrovnik, Croatia, everyone gathered in teacher Dong Qiuping’s room to drink and chat. The topic at that time somehow came to teacher Yuan Chunxiu’s husband. Teacher Yuan Chunxiu complained about her husband’s behavior from her perspective. The huge changes before and after marriage made everyone laugh.

Teacher Dong Qiuping present even jokingly suggested that the program team should find time to set up a grandfather bureau, bring along teacher Yuan Chunxiu's husband, and ask Li Yichen to help with the words and listen to another version of the story.

After more than half a year, thanks to Hong Lingjing's hard work, this grandpa bureau is finally set up.

Just two days ago, Wang Gaoming suddenly contacted Hong Lingjing, who was abroad, and said that Li Yichen personally revealed his idea of ​​recording a fancy tour group. So in order to satisfy Li Yichen's small wish, Hong Lingjing ended her vacation early and said with maturity The planner of "Grandpas Over Flowers" has returned to China.

"Is it because Yichen joined the variety show department that he became proactive?"

Hong Lingjing couldn't figure out why Li Yichen suddenly asked like this, but it was a good thing after all, as it saved them from spending countless brain cells on ways to abduct Li Yichen.

"That's not right... If Yichen knew that this time he was traveling with grandfathers whose average age is over 60 years old, he would have refused..."

Hong Lingjing suddenly frowned. She felt that she could not be blindly optimistic and wanted to keep Li Yichen a secret for the time being.

"I have no choice but to kidnap Yichen one last time... What's the good reason this time?"

On the way back to the TV station, Hong Lingjing thought hard and finally came up with a solution.

The plan is simple. Since Li Yichen himself has the desire to record the flower tour group, the program team can tell Li Yichen on the day of departure that they are going to the airport to prepare for the second season of "Sisters Over Flowers", leaving him no time to contact teacher Dong Qiuping privately. , directly tricked him into meeting his grandfathers at the airport. With Li Yichen's way of dealing with people, he would definitely not run away.

"Perfect……"

Hong Lingjing thought about the action plan carefully. Nine points were true, and only one point was that the person traveling with her was fake. There were no obvious loopholes in the entire plan, and Li Yichen would most likely not see through it.

Hong Lingjing was going to discuss this matter with Wang Gaoming during the meeting on Monday, and first got Li Yichen's passport.

Now the program team wants to kidnap Li Yichen, which is a very complicated and involved matter. Especially if they want to kidnap Li Yichen to participate in a nine-day overseas trip, they need to coordinate all aspects in advance, such as weekly broadcasts. "Please Give Me a Meal" and "The King of Masked Singer" need to be recorded two times in advance to prevent playback accidents.

"Please Give Me a Meal" is a little better. Currently, it is only hosted by Li Yichen. It is easy to coordinate the time. Just find a reason to notify Li Yichen to work overtime. But "The King of Masked Singer" is different. This program involves a lot of things in one episode. There are as many as twenty or thirty celebrity artists, and it is very difficult to coordinate the schedule.

Therefore, as Li Yichen has more and more regular variety shows, it is almost impossible to abduct Li Yichen as easily as last year.
