After everything was agreed upon, everyone was happy and sat down to eat.
During the meal, Grandpa Guan said to Zhou Chen proudly, "How about it, kid, have you seen the abilities of your grandfather, the Nine Gates Admiral, today?"
Zhou Chen responded: "Well, I have seen it, and I have also seen your ability to take advantage of your age."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the people present changed drastically.
"Hey." Old Master Guan also let out a light chuckle.
Guan Xiaoguan was dissatisfied and shouted at Zhou Chen: "Zhou Chen, how can you talk to my grandfather?"
Zhou Chen glanced at her indifferently.
"Old man?"
Grandpa Guan glanced at his granddaughter and said, "Little lazy cat, don't talk."
"Zhou Chen, you are just like Chunming in that you don't respect your elders. Haha."
Han Chunming touched his nose and said, "Master, I am not as disrespectful as him. I am very filial to you, okay."
"What a filial piety! The amount of wine you sent me in the past few years is not even half of what Zhou Chen gave me."
"I'm busy then."
Hou Polan also looked at Zhou Chen in surprise. He could see that Mr. Guan treated Zhou Chen very differently, almost the same way he treated Han Chunming.
Grandpa Guan said, "Past Marquis, don't underestimate Zhou Chen. He is in the same business as you, and he has collected a lot of treasures in the past few years."
"I've heard Chunming talk about this before."
Hou Polan had indeed heard Han Chunming talk about these things, but he still didn't think that Zhou Chen had collected more treasures than him.
Grandpa Guan smiled and said, "Little lazy cat, and the ragtag Marquis' daughter, let me tell you, Zhou Chen is really capable. If you encounter any problems that you can't solve in the future, you can look for him."
Guan Xiaoguan and Hou Su'e looked at each other in bewilderment, not taking Grandpa Guan's words seriously.
Although they acknowledged that Zhou Chen was educated and had a high degree, running a hotel had no direct relationship with high education, and they did not think that Zhou Chen could help them in any way.
When Mr. Guan saw their expressions, he knew what they were thinking. He didn't try to persuade them anymore, but just sighed slightly.
Han Chunming emphasized, "Sister Hou, Xiaoguan, the old man is not kidding you. Zhou Chen is really amazing. If you encounter any problems, just go to him. He will definitely be able to help you solve them."
"Okay, Han Chunming, why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Zhou Chen knew what Grandpa Guan and Han Chunming meant, but he didn't want to get into trouble at all. Guan Xiaoguan and Hou Su'e were both troublesome masters. He just felt that he had too much free time, so he wanted to meddle in their trivial matters.
The meal didn't end until eleven o'clock. Zhou Chen was responsible for driving Grandpa Guan and Han Chunming, and also took Polan Hou with him. The others went back home.
A few days later, Han Chunming came to Zhou Chen angrily and said that his car was seized by the Inspection Department.
"Fortunately, I listened to you and didn't give the car to Su Meng, otherwise, it would be a big trouble."
Seeing that Zhou Chen didn't seem very interested, Han Chunming scratched his head and continued, "Zhou Chen, do you think this was really caused by Cheng Jianjun?"
"What else do you think?"
"What about my car?"
"Just do what you have to do. Don't interfere with my lesson preparation. Get out of here."
Zhou Chen was busy preparing for next week's lessons. He was very annoyed when he heard Han Chunming's constant buzzing in his ears.
"No, give me some advice. I'm getting married soon, and I..."
"roll."
Han Chunming ran away in shame.
Zhou Chen looked at his back and snorted, "Get married, get married in a dream."
Although the gifted car was not confiscated, he still didn't think that Han Chunming and Su Meng could get married smoothly. Judging from the personalities of these two people, there would most likely be problems.
As long as the two of them fail to complete the last step, they may fall out even at the last moment.
Zhou Chen learned from his wife that Han Chunming had indeed handed over all the hotel affairs to his eldest sister-in-law and eldest sister. Although the hotel has not opened yet, all matters are already decided by them.
Hearing this, Zhou Chen found it funny. Han Chunming is really a henpecked man with a mental disorder. Even if he has money, he would not act like this.
Two women who had never done business before opened a restaurant, plus the ignorant Hou Su'e, it would be impossible for these three to run a successful restaurant.
He is now really looking forward to the opening of the restaurant soon, there will be a big show to watch then.
As for helping, looking at the expressions of Mrs. Han and the others, they are just asking for trouble.
But what Zhou Chen didn't expect was that a few days later, when he got home from work, he actually saw Han Lao Da's family and Han Da Jie's family at home. A group of four from the two families actually appeared in his house.
This is really strange. He and Han Chunyan have been married for several years, but the families of Han Lao Da and Han Da Jie have only come together on their wedding day and have never come to their house again since then.
At this time, they were not busy with the restaurant's affairs, but actually ran to his house together, which really surprised him.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 665: Falling out, Han Chunyan gets angry
"Brother, sister-in-law, sister, brother-in-law, how come you have time to come here today? Have you eaten?"
Zhou Chen greeted Boss Han and the others with a smile. Except for his brother-in-law, he often saw the other three.
This brother-in-law is a very ordinary man. Apart from being rather strong, he is said to be very patriarchal and rarely interacts with the Han family.
"Zhou Chen, it's time to get off work."
Boss Han and the other three greeted Zhou Chen politely, without any of the resentment they had when they were rejected by Zhou Chen.
Han Chunyan came over and said, "Brother and sister bought a lot of cold dishes. I'll stir-fry a few more dishes and we'll be ready to eat."
"Chunyan, you're welcome. We are all family."
Mrs. Han and Sister Han both stood up to help Han Chunyan. As for the child, he was able to run around on the ground now and did not need someone to hold him at all times, just watch him.
The three women went about their business, leaving behind three men who were not very familiar with each other and had no common topics.
It was Han Chunsong, the boss, who spoke first with a smile and opened the topic.
The three of them didn't chat for long, the meal was soon ready, and they sat together.
Zhou Chen took out the wine and the three men all drank some. He saw that the two families seemed to be hesitant to talk several times, and he understood what was going on, but he just didn't take the initiative to speak.
Finally, Mrs. Han couldn't bear it any longer and spoke first.
"Zhou Chen, Chunyan, we came here today because we have something to discuss with you."
When they were talking, everyone's eyes were on Zhou Chen, because they all knew that in this family, Zhou Chen was the one who made the decisions.
But Zhou Chen's expression was very calm and he did not respond. It was Han Chunyan who took over the conversation.
"Sister-in-law, if you have any questions, just tell us directly. If we can help, we will definitely help."
Mrs. Han and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then Mrs. Han spoke.
"Chunyan, Zhou Chen, it's like this. Didn't Xiaowu's restaurant get handed over to us? Before, a man named Polan Hou was in partnership with Xiaowu. We thought that Polan Hou was an outsider, and this is our own business. If it becomes prosperous in the future, wouldn't it be a good thing for others to take advantage of it? So we thought that instead of letting outsiders take advantage of it, it would be better for us to take advantage of it. Don't you think this makes sense?"
"what?"
Han Chunyan was at a loss when she heard this. "Sister-in-law, this restaurant hasn't even opened yet, how do you know it will be a big hit?"
Sister-in-law Han said confidently: "Needless to say, the restaurant is now under our control. With the abilities of your sister-in-law and elder sister, it will surely be prosperous."
Han Chunxue nodded in agreement: "Yes, Chunyan, these days, we have figured out how to operate a restaurant. As long as we open it, we will definitely make a lot of money with our abilities."
Han Chunyan smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to respond.
Although she is not well educated, she is not stupid. She has been married to Zhou Chen for several years, and her vision and level of knowledge have been improved through the influence of him.
The sister-in-law and elder sister took on so much responsibility and their overconfidence made her feel very uneasy.
That's not how business is done, right?
Zhou Chen then said, "Sister-in-law, sister, do you mean to kick out the Broken Marquis?"
Han Chunsong said: "It's not a kick. We still think that it's best for family members to do business together. With outsiders, conflicts are inevitable."
"Oh."
Zhou Chen nodded and said, "Brother, you must have your own reasons for thinking this, but Chunming has already handed the restaurant over to you, so you can make your own decisions and don't need to consult us."
Mrs. Han immediately said, "Zhou Chen, this is what we thought. We will get rid of the broken Hou and let you and Chunyan become shareholders. We will help you make a lot of money."
“Let us buy shares?”
Zhou Chen was so shocked that he almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
After calming down his amusement, he asked with interest: "Sister-in-law, how do you want us to invest? Let us manage the restaurant, or..."
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Han shouted excitedly, "How can this be possible?"
Han Chunsong pushed his wife angrily. Only then did Han's wife realize that she had spoken too quickly and smiled awkwardly.
"Zhou Chen, what I mean is that managing a restaurant is a very troublesome thing. Look at you two, one is a university teacher with a decent job and has no time to manage it. Chunyan has a child who is too young and has even less time. So let us do this kind of troublesome thing."
"Yes, yes." Han Chunsong and Han Chunxue both nodded in agreement.
Han Chunyan, on the other hand, showed dissatisfaction on her face. She also heard that the eldest brother and eldest sister's families came here today with ulterior motives.
Mrs. Han didn't beat around the bush and said directly: "Zhou Chen, Chunyan, we came here today to invite you to invest in our restaurant."
Zhou Chen exclaimed in his heart, wow, this sister-in-law is really something. The restaurant was bought by Han Chunming, and all the money was paid by Han Chunming. But in her mouth, it became their restaurant.
These brothers and sisters of the Han family are really top-notch. Knowing that Han Chunming is easy to bully, they just pick on him.
Han Chunyan did not answer, but looked at Zhou Chen. Although she didn't want to buy shares, Zhou Chen was still the one who made the decisions in this family.
Zhou Chen smiled and asked, "Then I wonder how much money does sister-in-law want us to invest in? And how many shares will she give us?"
Mrs. Han's eyes lit up immediately, and she said with a smile, "Two or three hundred thousand. Zhou Chen, you pay three hundred thousand, and we will give you 10% of the shares of the restaurant. You don't have to worry about management, and you can get dividends directly when the time comes."
Even though Zhou Chen knew that his sister-in-law was very shameless, he was still shocked after hearing these words.
"Three hundred thousand, ten percent of the shares?"
Wow, this sister-in-law actually thinks that the restaurant is worth three million. What does three million mean at this time? It can definitely buy several restaurants.
Han Chunyan was also so angry that she laughed: "Sister-in-law, three hundred thousand, ten percent of the shares, do you think we are fools, or are you stupid yourself?"
Han Chunsong shouted at Han Chunyan in dissatisfaction: "Chunyan, how can you talk to your sister-in-law like that?"
Han Chunyan said back without giving any face: "What's wrong with me talking? You all treat us as fools, how can you expect me to talk to you? Three hundred thousand represents ten percent of the shares, do you really have the nerve to say that?"
Mrs. Han said, "Chunyan, this share is really not small. Our restaurant will definitely be very popular after it opens. You don't have to worry about anything and you can get dividends. This is such a good thing."
Han Chunyan gave her a cold look, then turned to look at Han Chunxue: "Sister, you think so too?"
Han Chunxue looked embarrassed. Although she was also greedy for money, she was not as blindly obsessed with money as Han Dasao. After all, they had been sisters for decades, and she felt embarrassed to cheat her younger sister.
Han Chunyan became even angrier when she didn't get a reply.
"Sister-in-law, Zhou Chen doesn't need to say anything about this matter. I can tell you with certainty that this is impossible. Not to mention that we don't have 300,000 yuan, even if we did, we wouldn't be able to buy shares. Ten percent of the shares is like giving away a beggar."
After being rudely retorted by Han Chunyan, Mrs. Han's face turned pale.
"Chunyan, how can you talk like that? What do you mean by sending away a beggar? We are brothers and sisters, how can you talk to us like that?"
Han Chunyan said coldly: "I will use the same tone as the person I'm talking to."
"Spring Swallow..."
Han Chunsong shouted angrily and was about to act like a big brother, but Zhou Chen spoke instead.
"Brother, Chunyan's meaning is what I mean. We don't want to invest in this restaurant, and we don't have the money to invest. If you are not in a hurry, you can stay and sit for a while. If you are in a hurry, please come in."
As soon as the order to leave was given, the faces of the four men including Han Lao Da turned ugly. As the head of the family, Han Chunsong had no status in front of his wife, but in front of his younger brothers and sisters, he acted like an elder brother.
"Zhou Chen, Chun Yan, is this how you talk to your brothers and sisters?"
Mrs. Han added fuel to the fire and said in a sarcastic tone, "He is an intellectual, his family is powerful and rich, it's normal for him to look down on us."
Han Chunyan was so furious that she even forgot about her son in the baby chair next to her and slammed the table.
"Wang Xiufen, shut up. I tolerate you only for my eldest brother's sake. You really think you are an important person. My eldest brother and Xiaowu spoil you, but I, Han Chunyan, will never spoil you. You, leave my house, immediately."
Han Chunyan's sudden outburst scared everyone, including Zhou Chen. It was the first time for him to see such a fierce Han Chunyan. He did not come to his senses until his son cried.
The others were also awakened by Zhou Xuanyu's crying. Mrs. Han's face looked extremely ugly and she also slammed the table and stood up.
She wanted to get angry at Han Chunyan, but when she saw Han Chunyan staring at her fiercely, her heart skipped a beat and she didn't dare to retort, so she turned her anger towards Han Chunsong.
