Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

Chapter 1733 1733: Hello, Everyone

Ling Zhenfei hurriedly greeted everyone.

"Hello, hello."

The fans complained a little: "Hello? We've been waiting for a long time. Now, you have to book a table at Xi Shan Restaurant, but even when you book, you can't get one."

Ling Zhenfei replied, "If you can't book, just wait until tomorrow. Why line up today?"

The fans said, "There's no choice, we just really want to eat there. We hope the people who booked eat quickly so we can get in and eat too."

Ling Zhenfei sighed, "I apologize to you all."

"No need to apologize. As long as you open another restaurant in the Capital City, that would solve it."

The fans' words left Ling Zhenfei silent.

"Sorry, Xi Shan Restaurant doesn't have plans to open more branches here in the Capital City right now."

The fans were shocked: "No way! The restaurant is so busy that the doors are almost breaking from the crowd, and you're not opening another branch?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Currently, Xi Shan Restaurant only has branches in four places. We haven't opened any in major cities like Yunzhou or Xinzhou. Having one restaurant in the Capital City is already quite fortunate."

"But that's different; this is the Capital City, the capital! The Provincial City doesn't have nearly as many people. The Capital City's population is easily more than twice that of the Provincial City. Its area is also double. It's normal to have two restaurants."

Ling Zhenfei nodded, "What you say makes sense, but our group is taking a very cautious approach to opening new branches. Our restaurant planning director is on vacation.

Once they return, they will inspect various places. Maybe the Capital City really is suitable for another restaurant. Let's wait and see."

Ling Zhenfei walked into Xi Shan Restaurant. Cao Xueyi already knew Ling Zhenfei had arrived but didn't disturb him while he was talking to fans.

Now, as Ling Zhenfei walked in, Cao Xueyi said, "So, are the fans asking to expand and open more branches?"

Ling Zhenfei was stunned and laughed: "How did you know?"

Cao Xueyi helplessly said, "I receive complaints every day saying that Xi Shan Restaurant is inefficient because there are queues every day, and we should open more branches."

Ling Zhenfei knew that the Capital City was not just any place, just like the fans mentioned earlier. The population in the Capital City is more than double that of the Provincial City, and it's over twice as large in area.

Furthermore, the number of foreigners in the Capital City is comparable to Modu. In both the Capital City and Modu, as long as a restaurant is doing well, having two restaurants might not even be enough, and at least there's no worry about foot traffic.

Ling Zhenfei asked, "What do you think?"

Cao Xueyi said, "I'm okay with it. Opening another restaurant could relieve some pressure. You know, reservations are now being made two months in advance."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Of course, I know opening a restaurant makes money. But I'm worried that if the number of restaurants increases too much, the quality might drop, which would ruin our reputation."

Cao Xueyi said, "As long as we strengthen supervision, it should be fine."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Strengthening supervision isn't that easy. Let me think about this for now."

They talked about the situation of the Capital City Restaurant. There's no denying that Xi Shan Restaurant in the Capital City is running very well.

In fact, the restaurant's hours extend beyond just the typical breakfast, lunch, and dinner times.

Because lunch and dinner are all booked, people wanting to eat without a reservation have to wait until the reserved diners finish, then they can get their turn.

Thus, effectively, two additional dining sessions have been added each day.

But this means the restaurant's chefs and staff are extremely busy. Therefore, the Capital City Restaurant has the largest staff, with two shifts at that, and the wages are the highest.

A typical chef earns one to two million a month, and even regular waitstaff earn over a million a month; it's no wonder many want to work at Xi Shan Restaurant.

They discussed for a long time about opening new branches, but Ling Zhenfei remained very cautious.

If Xi Shan Restaurant relies only on its current menu, even the most delicious chicken soup can become tiresome over time.

Currently, Xi Shan Restaurant is like a viral trend. While it's at its peak, everyone flocks to it. But after the hype dies down, who knows what will happen? Ling Zhenfei didn't dare to imagine, nor did he want to.

Ling Zhenfei shifted the conversation to Xu Yuyu's child. After all, he is the child's godfather in name.

So when Ling Zhenfei mentioned the child, Cao Xueyi naturally didn't suspect anything.

They agreed to leave work early in the evening and go to the Cao Family for dinner to see the child.

Even though he's just the godson in name, only Ling Zhenfei and Xu Yuyu know that this child is actually Ling Zhenfei's.

As such, Ling Zhenfei naturally prepared thoroughly, putting together many gifts for the child.

Items like gold and silver weren't necessary; the Cao Family wouldn't lack such things.

Ling Zhenfei focused on preparing things that the Cao Family didn't have and couldn't buy even if they wanted to.

In the evening, after everything was arranged, Cao Xueyi drove back with Ling Zhenfei to the Cao Family.

Within the grand Cao Family estate, as the steam rose in early spring, the trees bore fresh green leaves, a lively scene.

There were even two swans gliding on the small pond.

Returning to this place, Ling Zhenfei was filled with emotion, remembering all that had happened here.

The Cao Family had long prepared for Ling Zhenfei's visit. Cao Qinglin was already waiting.

Upon getting out of the car, Ling Zhenfei saw Cao Qinglin, and noticed a significant change in his demeanor compared to before.

The first time they met, Ling Zhenfei was just a slightly well-known Divine Doctor.

But now, Ling Zhenfei is different. Not only is he a Divine Doctor, but also a renowned entrepreneur.

Every branch of Xi Shan Restaurant becomes successful soon after opening; it's now a benchmark in the dining industry.

Moreover, the opening of Xi Shan Restaurant has earned him quite a bit of money.

Profits from Xi Shan Restaurant are just a small part; its impact cannot be overlooked.

The restaurant is located in a large shopping plaza owned by the Cao Family, just across the street from Ma Long's International Plaza.

Originally, the International Plaza had taken most of the foot traffic. That's why when Xi Shan Restaurant opened, its role was to boost foot traffic in the area.

As a result, the rent was quite cheap initially, but the effect was evident.

Now, their foot traffic and rents have exceeded those of the International Plaza by a significant amount, so naturally, Cao Qinglin is earning hefty profits, leading to a change in his attitude toward Ling Zhenfei.

Another reason is that having a son changed his mood.

Even though Cao Qinglin knows this son isn't biologically his, it's a secret he plans to keep as long as he raises him well, nobody needs to know.

Having a son late in life, what could make Cao Qinglin happier?

"Congratulations, Boss Cao. Having a son late in life is truly a good sign.
